Chapter 247: No Resurrection (3/3)
When Zhao Xu returned to the vicinity of the "Falling Star Lake", Antinoya's words were still echoing in his mind.
At this time, he was completely shocked by the "fragment of Godhead".
Arthur's most enduring epic poem "The Road to Godhood" tells the story of a wanderer who is not even a legend, and at the end of the cataclysmic era after the death of the Grim Reaper, he successfully picked up a fragment of the godhead of the Grim Reaper, and thus successfully ascended to the throne and became the "God of Killing".
In the early stage of "The Road to God", the god of killing was a proper tragic life, and he was originally just a crew member and was framed because he was jealous of his peers.
The trusted prosecutor also concealed the truth in order to cover up his family's faults, which led to him being imprisoned for treason.
His fiancée also left him to marry his enemies, and his father died of starvation due to illness and poverty.
The god of slaughter then eventually became a wanderer under the guidance of the Reverend Naraku, the god of death, who was also imprisoned.
Eventually, he escaped by disguising himself as the body of the dead pastor and being thrown into the sea.
After this, the wanderer relied on the guidance of the Priest of Death to finally find the fragment of the Godhead of the Grim Reaper and became the God of Killing.
And his story of revenge ends with the destruction of Arthur's thousand-year-old dynasty.
The second half of the book records that the god of killing was unable to control the huge divine power due to his lack of accumulation, and was finally exterminated by the other other divine powers.
And because of the first half of the content, everyone took the lead role of the wanderer and felt good.
Therefore, the plot of the siege of the gods in the later part can also avoid causing bad feelings, and they are all deleted by the church in the official publications.
Many new readers, thinking that there is no god of killing at the moment, think that it is just a story made up.
What Antinoya told Zhao Xu was that there was now a path to godhood similar to that God of Killing in front of him.
A proven path to success.
Like the godhead of the goddess of magic, placed in front of him, without the identity of a legendary mage, Zhao Xu encountered a situation where his brain could not bear it, and then he would die.
Zhao Xu saw this very clearly in the book "Gods and Demigods" in the Legendary Library.
Originally, Zhao Xu also planned to let the giant scythe in his hand get enough evolution as soon as possible, so as to quickly find the "portal".
But now it seems that everything needs to change.
He needs to use up those five days to improve himself from all angles.
In fact, anything that involves the level of the gods will not be simple.
Zhao Xu is in the same state as "Artoria".
Therefore, when he first met Antinoia, he did not elaborate on the details of the Eternal Hallows and the Seven Great Prophecies.
Thanks to the prompt of "prophecy", Zhao Xu also tried the "Psychic Technique" of the Five Rings at this time.
At the moment, he has a level 30 caster, and he can ask 30 questions.
However, after Zhao Xu finished casting the spell, he found that the aura of the spell had not opened up the communication channel to the heavenly kingdom.
After circling around him a few times, the aura pointed directly at him and sank into his eyebrows.
"Huh? Are you looking for me? Artoria's voice, which had fallen into a deep slumber, came.
In the past two days, Zhao Xu used Artoria's level 20 priest ability to experience the power of the full level number for the first time.
He suddenly heard the other party's voice at this moment, and he felt a little unaccustomed.
"I just used the 'Psychic Technique', and the target of the inquiry is directed at you?" Zhao Xu asked in surprise.
"Well, this spell can connect to a god or an agent of a god. You don't think you can let the goddess answer it herself, do you? Naturally, it was finally distributed to me, who became one with you. ”
"Then I'm not willing to go far." Zhao Xu didn't have a good airway.
Why is this "psychic technique" still tricky?
"Then you ask, although I am not omniscient and omnipotent, but the answer to your question should be enough." Artoria replied.
Hearing this, Zhao Xu immediately sorted out the past of the entire Battle of Falling Star Lake, and asked Artoria one by one.
By the way, he also knocked on the side and asked some inside information about the "scavenging beast cave".
Since that thing involves the godhead of death, it is certainly not a thing that can be hidden.
It also made him a little curious why the gods didn't intervene in that half plane to take the fragment of Godhead.
And an angel of Artoria's strength exists as a top-level commander on the battlefield of the heavenly kingdom.
Although the battlefield is inconsistent, she was once a mortal and knew the essence of war, so she directly broke up the main points of the normal battle and explained it to Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu slowly had a different understanding.
He also began to feel the difference between himself as an outsider and an insider.
Players have indeed organized thousands of union battles in other online games.
But for them, it's just simulation.
Unlike this moment, the opponent is a force that has accumulated decades of heritage, and behind the other party is an Arthurian world with a history of hundreds of millions of years.
A lot of the operations are no longer the kind of chessboard deduction in the past, and it is as simple as besieging here.
Moreover, Arthur's players do not have the timely communication method of other online games, so they can only temporarily instill a simple set of flag words in players.
But what they are facing is a private army of mining associations that have grown from small run-ins to large ones.
In the previous life, only when the living power of that group of personal guards was exhausted and dragged until the mercenaries who lacked tacit understanding intervened, the player's winning side was turned over.
After asking twenty questions about the Battle of Falling Star Lake, Zhao Xu found that the duration of the spell had long passed.
"Hey, am I going to cast the spell again?" Zhao Xu asked at this time.
"No, the power of spells is actually just to provide a channel of communication, so I naturally don't need to do this in your heart." Artoria replied succinctly.
Zhao Xu also nodded, according to the requirements of the spell itself, the other party actually answered a simple "yes" or "no" is actually enough.
Otherwise, the power of this "Divine Technique" would not be suppressed by the ninth level.
It's just that he is equivalent to a personal relationship at this time, so he has more answers.
Artoria would go on a tirade because of one of her own questions.
"Then why didn't the gods intervene in that half-plane?" Zhao Xu finally asked this question at this time, the question he really wanted to ask today.
At that time, Antinoya was already a little sleepy and planned to go to the bedroom next to her to change clothes and fall asleep, and he couldn't rely on asking anymore.
"Well, we'll have to get back to another question first." Artoria said, "Do you know the former 'God of Killing'? ”
Zhao Xu nodded when he heard this, he had even read the story of his life.
"Then you know why at least half of the gods fell during the cataclysm. But among them, the succession was the smoothest, without any waves, was it the god of killing? ”
During this time, Zhao Xu actually read a lot of related content for that half of the plane.
He also had his own opinion on all the problems that had puzzled him in his previous life.
He is no longer passively receiving the indoctrination of ideas.
"Because, this is determined by the godhead of the god of death." Zhao Xu said.
"After the fall of the other gods, the godhead will have this obvious residual characteristic, and even the gods will have to take a long time to digest."
"Only the god of death, because of the particularity of death, some of the remaining characteristics of the god of death will be gone."
Zhao Xu finally said this guess word by word.
"Well, master, your current perception of this aspect has indeed exceeded my estimate, and you always have your own accurate judgment of divinity." Artoria suddenly praised Zhao Xu.
"So what I'm going to tell you next, are you ready?" Artoria said suddenly.
At this time, Zhao Xu looked around, the hills in the middle of the night were very quiet, only the sound of insects.
It's true that no one approached.
However, Zhao Xu's spell does not need to be in vain.
He directly used the "Miracle Technique" to simulate the seven-ring arcane "Mage Mansion Technique".
Suddenly, a faintly glowing doorway appeared in front of him, about the size of a single bed in his dormitory.
Behind the door, however, there was nothingness, and it was still a cluster of miscellaneous trees on the hills.
Zhao Xu directly walked into this entrance to another dimension.
Then the doorway, which was still glowing, directly converged and closed, and then became completely invisible.
Then Zhao Xu saw that there was an extremely luxurious hall in front of him, the furniture was neatly stacked, and the hall was connected to dozens of spacious rooms.
In fact, Zhao Xu can also continue to modify the layout, and with his level 30 spellcaster, he can create this space of about 2,500 cubic meters.
However, Zhao Xu was not interested in looking at the feast on the huge dining table, which could serve 360 people, and the sixty servants standing on the side who were neatly dressed but almost transparent.
In fact, he just wanted to create a simple and hidden space.
However, it is also because of the appearance of these "habitable" spells that the life of the mage is much more convenient, so that he does not need to eat and sleep in the open.
"That's it." At this time, Zhao Xu said to Artoria, who was in the same tone.
"Well, then you can listen up." Artoria's tone was serious, but not the kind to deliberately hang her appetite.
"The Grim Reaper is the only god who will not be resurrected."
