Chapter 434: Prophecy
As a prophet of Bracada, when Orac joined the Magical Guild, he prophesied many anomalies about the imminent emergence of Bracada territory, and all of them were fulfilled.
Because of the arrival of these situations in advance, under the timely handling of the Magic Guild, these anomalies did not have much impact on the territory of Bracada, and even only a very small number of supervisors in the Magic Guild knew about the existence of these anomalies.
Among them, a catastrophe that was about to occur in Bracada was also discovered by Orak in advance, and Eli was informed of the situation in time.
Through his prophecy powers, Orac knew that the source of this catastrophe was initiated by Krulrod, a savage creature territory that mages had always looked down on.
In the midst of Krulord, there is a very powerful barbarian hero, and from this hero, Orak truly feels a powerful will that only circulates in epic stories, a will that seems to be condensed into substance, and it is all hatred for mages.
Orlac was able to spot this, but he didn't have the ability to solve it on his own.
In Orrac's opinion, if according to some of the situations in her prophecy, for Krolod at this time, even if the entire magic guild joins forces, it may not be able to deal with it, and all the mages in Bracada must be dealt with together, so that they can barely cope with the upcoming attack.
During the prophecy, Orac noticed an artifact in the possession of the leader of the barbarians of Krullod, which could shield all magic cast by the mage, making the space around him a true forbidden space.
As a high-level mage, Orak naturally understood the extent of destruction that this treasure could bring to the mages of Bracada. It can be said that any mage will have a sense of powerlessness in his heart when faced with such a treasure that prohibits the use of magic.
Being able to cast spells is the reason why mages are stronger than other creatures, and it is precisely because of the variety of spells that mages have achieved long-term enslavement of the surrounding area.
Once the effect of the Forbidden Orb is activated, there will be no difference between mages and ordinary people in the forbidden space it generates, even if it is Orak himself, he will be completely restrained by the forbidden space. Under the effect of the forbidden magic orb, even a seventh-order mage is no different from an ordinary human.
On top of the grade of the treasure, the forbidden magic ball itself went beyond the category of ordinary treasures and reached a higher level of artifact.
For ordinary people, the most commonly heard artifact existence is the kind of artifact that requires the combination of various artifact parts. Once you've collected all the artifact parts, the artifact will be able to show its true effect, and it's a great attraction for any creature.
This is also the reason why Rhodes has been collecting Titan Arrow parts. Compared to the others, Rhodes has the reward of the Legacy Quest, and is able to sense the location of artifact parts without the need to gather intelligence himself.
With this, at this time, Rhodes already has two artifact parts, and he also has a clue about the collection of the third artifact part, and I believe that this collection process will be equally smooth.
In addition to this combination artifact, there is also a single artifact. Compared to a combined artifact, this artifact is easier to collect, and you only need to find the artifact's body to reveal its true effect.
Even if it is a single artifact, the effect it can bring is also very powerful, and it will not be weakened by the lack of artifact parts. Similar to the forbidden orb in the hands of the barbarian leader, it is such an artifact, and under its effect, the abilities of all mages are severely limited.
No mage can break this restriction imposed by the artifact and cast spells around the space where the forbidden orb is located. It can be said that the appearance of this artifact inherently restrained all mages.
If it weren't for the existence of the Forbidden Orb, in Orak's eyes, the war launched by Krulrod might not be worth too much attention at all, even if any seventh-order mage made a full effort, the barbarian army would be difficult to deal with.
Perhaps the only thing worthy of Orlac's attention are the high-ranking creatures of the Barbarian army, the Beamon Behemoths the size of a hill.
Although Orac didn't know how the barbarians came to an agreement with these Beamon Behemoths to involve them in the war, Orlac was still very clear about the true strength of these Behemoths.
Among the many high-level creatures, Beamon's ability to fight in close combat is one of the best. What the Beamon Behemoth is good at is this kind of hand-to-hand combat on the ground, and it has a strong vitality. Even a mighty dragon would not be able to gain any advantage if it engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Beamon Behemoth on the ground.
If there is no forbidden orb in this war, Orac only needs to unite with some other high-level mages and concentrate on dealing with these Beamon Behemoths, as for the other creatures in the barbarian army, they are not worth Orark's attention at all.
However, the appearance of the forbidden orb has changed all of this, and even ordinary creatures in the barbarian army cannot be dealt with by mages, let alone those Behemoths. After losing the most powerful spell casting ability, the mage's own strength is not worth mentioning.
In anticipation of this situation, Orak immediately told Eli the news in full, hoping that he would be able to make a series of countermeasures to defuse the disaster that was about to arrive in Bracada.
In addition to the targets of the war, Orac also foresaw the tragic end of the war in Bracada.
In this war, there was a lot of damage to the mage group, and countless mages who had devoted themselves to the study of spells died in this war. Bracada, once in its glory, turned out to be in ruins, with most of the land in ruins and all kinds of precious ruins completely destroyed, all brought about by the barbarian army.
Under the effect of the forbidden orb, the mages seem to have only the option of sending puppet golems to delay time and make themselves retreat from the battlefield of the army, and let their home be destroyed by the barbarians.
In Orlac's heart, he really wanted to avoid this situation, but for this artifact, even Orlac, there was no better way.
Orak told Eli all of this, but to Orlac's surprise, Eli didn't seem to do anything to avoid the war.
