Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Underworld

But is the process that simple? Of course not, not to mention that there are countless half-planes that are short-lived every minute and every second outside the main plane, how to find a half-plane that can remain stable and indestructible before the gods are transformed into the kingdom of God is a difficult task.

Secondly, the void is not safe, and the gods must stay in the half-plane in the process of transforming the plane, and it is not that there are no lucky people in this world who find the half-plane and are killed by the demons or gods wandering in the void......

"Well, even if it is not a good thing that can be chosen by the kingdom of God, pass the coordinates of the entrance here to the main body, and then destroy the teleportation array in the ruins, Pieno has already died thousands of years ago, and no second person can enter here, so I can be regarded as having a portable space."

For his own greed, Shepard smiled self-deprecatingly, any god in the face of such a situation that affects his foundation is probably inevitably moved, and it is reasonable for him to do this, as long as he is not fascinated by greed, there is nothing to do.

Transfer the plane coordinates to the body, and wait until the godhead and the system analyze this coordinate entrance, and then there will be no space rings or storage bags, this is his exclusive space, secret and safe.

The three-dimensional space the size of a football field is somewhat empty, with nothing in the natural environment, only an illusory and unreal world barrier, and a large magic circle standing in the center, as if it was a part of someone cut from some building.

Shepard stepped forward, looked at the creation made of Mithril and Adamantite Gold, and almost groaned, "No wonder that guy in his previous life formed a large warband by himself...... How rich are the ancient arcanists! ”

A secret chamber made of pure mythril and pure gold! That is, Pienno's first secret room, which adventurers couldn't find in the ruins, was actually cut through the space by him with a teleportation circle and teleported here!

Moreover, the entire three layers, almost fifteen meters high, are all made of mythril and pure gold, even the output of the main plane cannot meet this demand, there must be parts that the arcanists have scavenged from other planes and continent worlds.

In these three layers, there are all the books and notes of Piero, as well as his legacy, the meditation methods and spell-casting skills of the magicians are priceless, for any powerful mage above the epic level, the value of tangible things can never compare to the intangible precious wealth, that is, their knowledge, and experience.

"It's good to have a prophet......"

Shepard looked at the secret room in front of him, which was many times more valuable than gold, and suddenly sighed, every time he found this kind of treasure or ruin that countless players had envied or rushed to in his previous life, he would experience the pleasure of opening up.

"I want to think about it...... There shouldn't be any mechanism in this secret room...... No, there are three Adamantite Golems in the door? ”

Since it was cut out entirely, the entrance to the chamber was actually on top, but if you entered from above, you would inevitably face the last layer of defense left behind by the arcane master Pierno, three invulnerable Adamantite Golems.

They will attack anyone who enters the chamber normally...... Because the Dharma Master is teleported in, he will not go through the main entrance.

Shepard was distressed for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and made a decision: "There is no other way, let's face the anus!" ”

He gritted his teeth and pushed open the door of the secret room.

Squeak –

Poof-

The action of opening the door brought the wind, which swept up countless dusts and rushed towards Shepard, but fortunately, the doppelganger reacted very quickly, dodged to the side, and let the dust rush out of the room like a gray python.

Waiting until the wind fell, he remembered something, walked into the secret room lightly, looked around, all the books, there was only dust left, thousands of years have passed, although the teleportation circle outside is still running unexpectedly, but the protective magic in the secret room has long lost its energy, and those precious scrolls and books have turned into ashes......

Shepard looked at everything in front of him without tears, and there was a lonely Adamantite Golem standing in the corner not far away, which was probably the only good news, and the Golem had no power.

"Alas...... After all, it's not in the game, without the elemental pool, without the injection of external energy, it's strange that this secret room can be kept for thousands of years. ”

Shepard walked lightly through the secret room, all the books and scrolls that were still in good shape turned into ashes at the slightest touch, and even the wooden bookcases were rotten and fragile, Shepard passed through two floors, leaving nothing but the Adamantite Golem.

It wasn't until the third layer that he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and although the Adamantite Golem had also lost its momentum, the things that Pieno had kept his precious meditation and inheritance were not paper scrolls, but magic scrolls made of rare metals and gemstone crystals......

[Pienor's Book of Wisdom (exquisite magic scroll), this scroll comes from the hands of the soul painter Pienno, the fifth of the ten arcane masters of the Magic Empire, even if it is only in terms of material, this is an incomparably rare and precious creation, and it is the complete inheritance of the legendary mage Pierno who stores the essence of necromancy and spells]

Master led the door, practice in the individual, although the style of painting is a bit mismatched, but this sentence is indeed a true portrayal of most magic researchers, especially in the era of the Magic Empire thousands of years ago, although the popularity and convenience of spell casting is far inferior to the magic circle in the old continent that is now ruled by the magic web, but those ancient mages and arcanists are fanatical and insistent on the study of truth is enough to make future generations ashamed.

Moreover, the foundation and peak of the eight major factions were shaped at the peak of that magic empire, and thousands of years of continuous wars and turmoil have led to a great regression and weakening of the study of magic.

The artificial intelligence (intelligent AI) and the power furnace technology of the Floating City, which the Magic Empire was once proud of, can only be found in the complete legacy of the Magic Empire that remains in the multiverse.

"Good stuff, really good stuff, but it's a pity I don't need it."

Shepard weighed the scroll in his hand, and said with joy and sigh, the study of magic requires a lot of time and energy, and it has always been that there are many mages who become gods, and few gods who become mages, because either they lack skills or have no talent.

"It's not completely useless, but unfortunately, what I lack most now is time...... Or, share your knowledge with King Randil, and if you can make him an Epic Mage or a Legendary Mage, it will also be a powerful helper! But before that happens, make an eternal covenant......"

In the name of the River Styx, he made an eternal covenant vow that unless the world is destroyed, even if one of them falls or falls, the contract will remain in the soul mark and never disappear.

However, after thinking about it, although the elves' conduct is credible, the elven main god is not necessarily willing to make such a covenant for such a piece of knowledge, so Shepard only suppressed his plan and waited until he had the opportunity to ask the meaning of the elf four gods, and in their identities, they were already qualified to make an oath with Shepard on behalf of the entire elf clan.

Signing an oath with Shepard, the god of light, Tonatiu, instead of with humans, this is Shepard's consideration, human beings are always fickle, and the free will of intelligent life is vividly reflected in the human race, and all agreements based on human beings themselves cannot be eternal.

Put away the magic scroll, the most valuable wealth in this half-plane is those pure gold and mythril, but to smelt these metals must have a special process, although the divine fire can, but who will consume precious divine power to melt iron, after all, it depends on the dependents of the gods to do it.

……

In the ruins of the Floating City, there was no great momentum when it disappeared, but in a flash, in the dilapidated house that was originally empty, the figure of Shepard reappeared.

He looked around, and suddenly drew his long sword, the tip of which was a bit of bright yellow and dazzling light, as if it had an irresistible edge.

The body was like electricity, because the speed was too fast, I saw a bright yellow line drawn in the room, which was actually an afterimage left by the tip of the sword.

Sneering –

Although the material of the house is strong, it is not comparable to the highly condensed divine power, and with the powerful memory of the gods, Shepard has cut off and destroyed almost all the magic array patterns on the four walls, ensuring that no one can activate the teleportation array here.

If it weren't too wasteful, he would have wanted to cut off all four walls.

Shepard checked again to make sure that there was nothing left, and then he put on his equipment and baggage and walked steadily out of the ruins.

……

Hades in the New World.

Dead silence and paleness are the only scenery of this country of death, there is no official god of death in charge of the priesthood of death to control the path of the souls, and the unguided souls can only come here by luck, except for a very small part attracted by hell and abyss, most of them can only dissipate on the continent and become the food of the world's will.

But the underworld is not empty, the plants and beasts unique to the underworld live here, the desolate beasts of the underworld run on the sparsely vegetated underworld wilderness, roaring silently, occasionally encountering a few wandering souls, and swallowing them as food.

A huge beast like a werewolf rushed up a hillside, this beast had a very large skeleton, wrapped only in thin flesh and skin, at first glance it looked like a dried corpse after exposure to the sun, not even hair, and its appearance was hideous and terrifying, like a monster crawling out of a nightmare.

The beast roared silently, and looked down the hillside to a strange camp in which all sorts of souls were busy, and from time to time someone knelt down in prayer, and a golden curtain of light hung over them like a cover, in which the chanting of hymns and hymns was faintly heard.
