Chapter 107: Prophecy
Moros walked out, but he didn't refuse Carlin's request.
Carlin returned to the cramped desk in his room and flipped through his notebook.
After all, this is Karazan, and the countless spaces in the entire tower are full of magic circuits, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the illusion of falling into it...... The blindfold that Moros gave him didn't seem to play a particularly crucial role.
What's more, these visions reveal everything to come......
In his previous life, Khadgar saw in this vision that he was completely deprived of his youth and magic by Medivan; And Marshal Windsor, in this vision, saw that he was about to die at the breath of Onexia......
Carlin was glad he had discussed these things with the All-Seeing Eye!
He flipped to sixty-four pages of his notebook, and his memories went back to the past.
At that time, he had just returned from Northrend, and he was still an ordinary second-ring mage.
……
It was a sunny afternoon, and he was meditating quietly in the woods where he had first met Liadrin.
When he was a little tired, he suddenly thought of a question:
So he asked softly, "Omniscient Eye, how do you judge the situation around me and the probability of what is about to happen...... Relying on inference? Or is it a calculation? Or is it just guesswork? ”
"No, it's not right...... Is it a prophecy? The omniscient eye's voice was still so cold.
"Prophecy?" Carlin was a little stunned.
"In the year 3528 of the A.D., Lord Casas slew the Golden Dragon King Nexus and saved his brain...... "And the Golden Dragon, a dragon with innate and powerful prophetic magic, naturally has a powerful prophetic ability using the omniscient eye created by its brain!" ”
"In other words, you used prophecy spells to determine what was about to happen, so you came up with this information and probability?" Carlin continued.
"Yes......"
"That's amazing...... So can you predict how many rings I can be promoted? When to die? Can you marry a few girls? Carlin asked, a little excited.
The scene suddenly became a little cold.
Carlin suddenly felt that the omniscient eye was looking at him as if he were looking at a fool.
"Yes...... Any questions? Carlin asked in a low voice.
"Does the host know the first law of prophecy?" The All-Seeing Eye asked disdainfully, "Surely you don't know ......"
It wasn't ready for Carlin to reply.
"The content of the first law of prophecy: a prophecy that has been fulfilled, once known to someone, will be in effect!"
"That is......" Carlin frowned.
"If I predict that the host will die on a certain day, then the host will definitely die on that day, and no means or methods can avoid it!" The All-Seeing Eye sneered, "It would be interesting if the predicted death date of the host was tomorrow!" ”
"And, of course, the second law of prophecy...... The reverse inference of the first law also holds. ”
"Reverse ......," Karin muttered, "that means that a prophecy you don't know, even if it exists, is not necessarily true?" ”
"Yes, so ...... No prophecy mage who is not stupid enough to be in a state will not make a prophecy about his own future or the future of those close to him, because such a prophecy is unchangeable and completely predestined! The voice of the omniscient eye suddenly became a little lost:
"In fact, Lord Casas's defeat is also related to the prophecy spell?"
"Casas!" Carlin narrowed.
The Omniscient Eye, a legendary magical creature with autonomous consciousness, has an almost endless admiration for its first host, Casas the Godslayer.
"A legendary prophetic mage of the Eleventh Ring, who predicted the end of Nessreel, it will be completely destroyed by Felin Demon Aoi!" The All-Seeing Eye recalled.
"But according to the second law, this prophecy doesn't necessarily work, does it?" Carlin asked curiously.
"Theoretically, yes, as the Grand Arcanist of Nessreel, Lord Casas has kept the spread of this prophecy as much as possible among the few mages in the Council! At the same time, he decided to use all of Nesser's strength and unite with the Saron Spirits to destroy Felin Demon Sunflower. The voice of the All-Seeing Eye was filled with a faint sadness:
One member of the council, however, disagreed with Lord Casas, believing that the losses in the battle at Ferin were too severe, and advocating abandoning Nessera and rebuilding his homeland...... So he spread the prophecy! ”
"The prophecy has spread so fast that in less than a month, almost all the citizens of Nesserel have known of its existence......" The omniscient Eye's voice stopped.
"So the first law of prophecy comes into effect?"
"Yes...... The prophecy is inevitable, and countless legendary mages can't change that...... But Lord Casas was unwilling to abandon Nessreel, and even more so to abandon the low-level mages and ordinary civilians who could not escape the clutches of the Demon Moonflower of Felin......"
"So he made a crazy decision?"
"Isn't it inevitable and unchangeable?" Carlin asked, confused.
"No...... There is a way to avoid this ending......" said the omniscient eye in a low voice, "that is, to change the content of that certain law, or ...... Just change the rules! ”
"That is, killing gods?" Carlin asked, surprised.
"Yes, this can only be done by killing the goddess of magic, Mithra, and seizing her throne...... Therefore, Lord Casas, unleashed the only twelve-ring magic ...... 'Incarnation of Casas' in the entire history of Nessrael, and its other name is 'Divine Sealing Technique'! ”
"Did he succeed in the end?" Carlin had already guessed the answer.
"Of course it worked, the rules were changed by Master Casas, the first law did not take effect in the end, and Nessreel did not perish at the hands of Felin Mokui......"
The voice of the All-Seeing Eye seemed to be crying: "But the Lord Casas, who has perished because he is unable to manipulate the power of the Goddess of Magic, causing the entire Nets of Nessreel to collapse and the world to collapse at the same time, ...... his own hands"
……
Closing the notebook again, Carlin also left memories of the past.
The first fantasy seen on the stairs, the last familiar voice, was none other than Carlin's own voice!
Fortunately, with the warning of the omniscient eye, Carlin directly forcibly stimulated his spirit and did not see the end of the illusion. Otherwise, if he died at the hands of the orcs at that time, it would be a little helpless!
The future needs to be controlled by oneself, not on ethereal prophecies!
Not to mention, most of the future, the memories in his mind, have long been clear.
