Chapter 288: Battle of the Factions (3)
?“ Wait a minute, do you think this kind of thing will not have a powerful creature guard? Immediately, there was a stern shout from the dragon's summons.
?? Ashur's footsteps as he walked forward paused, and his face changed slightly, in this magic orchard, Ashur had seen four-colored magical creatures from afar along the way, Ashur only dared to look at it from afar, but the five-colored ones had never seen it, could it be guarding this supreme fruit?
??“ Be careful and observe. Ashur thought for a moment, nodded, lowered his body, and cautiously walked towards the bottom of the cliff, and soon came to the bottom of the cliff.
??“ This cliff is so steep that there is no way to go up, so you can only use magic to go up, but if there are magical creatures on it, it won't alarm it. Asher walked around the bottom of the cliff, but he didn't find any way up, it was a cliff.
?? Looking at the time, there were about three hours left until the next magic tide.
??“ No way, just wait for a magic tide. Asher rubbed his forehead and sighed helplessly.
?? Asher sat down on the spot at the bottom of the cliff, looking up at the height from time to time, the blue supreme fruit was there, and Asher now had to wait for the magical fury effect of the magic tide before he could cast the spell with confidence.
?? The three hours passed in the blink of an eye, but Asher was already impatient, and when the purple sun began to spit out magic clouds again, Ashur didn't wait for the clouds to completely disperse, he stood up, blessed himself with a flying technique, and flew gently towards the sky.
?? Ashur's figure rose rapidly, and soon he came to the top of the cliff, at which time Ashur lay on the cliff, quietly poked out his head, and carefully looked at the top of the cliff above.
?? A very ordinary scene fell into Asher's eyes, this is a barren cliff, there are no plants on it, only a bare pile of rubble, there is no complex magic array as Ashur imagined, there is no magnificent magic element, only in the pile of rubble, there is a branch that looks like a dead tree grows.
?? On top of the branch, there hung a round fruit, which was a shiny spherical shape, and the skin looked very smooth, and the whole body was dark blue, and it hung on the branch.
??“ That's the Blue Supreme Fruit, isn't there any of the expected five-colored magical creatures around here? Asher suppressed the excitement in his heart, looked around again, and out of safety, cast a detection spell to make sure that there were no creatures, and then jumped to the top of the cliff.
?? As soon as his toes hit the ground, Asher couldn't wait to rush towards the blue supreme fruit.
?? Coming to the Blue Supreme Fruit, looking at the fruit that appeared in front of him, exuding a round luster, Ashur gently rubbed his hands, carefully reached forward, and tentatively held the fruit.
?? A faint cold touch came into his hand, and after making sure that there were no traps, Asher relieved himself and gently pulled the fruit off the branch and held it tightly in his hand.
?? Arcane Supreme Fruit (Mythic)
?? Bind after picking
?? Use: Eat a piece of fruit that gives you more demonic power than ever before.
?? Number of uses: 3/3
??“ Holding this blue fruit, you feel the magic of the whole world in your hands. ”
?? After looking around at the appearance of this fruit, Ashur looked at the description carefully, it seems that this is a special fruit, which can be used three times in total, and the brief description of the effect is extremely vague, only saying that after eating, you can have unprecedented and abundant demonic power, and there is no specific bonus value.
?? To put it bluntly, it is a thing that will almost definitely become very powerful after eating, but how strong the effect is, Ya Xiu is not sure, and whether it is permanent or temporary, and he can't be confirmed, he thought it was more of a piece of equipment before, but he didn't expect it to be a thing.
?? After all, this is the fruit planted by the Guardian of the Arcanes, and if something is lost after eating it a few times, it will be a little sorry for the name of this fruit.
?? But...... It seems that the flame said before that this thing can't be eaten directly.
??“ How is it, do you feel anything? The fire dragon asked again from the dragon's call.
??“ Nothing out of the ordinary, but didn't you say this thing is inedible, why did I identify it as edible? Asher asked, a little confused.
??“ Can it be eaten? The fire dragon was also stunned, "It shouldn't be, the demon power in the Supreme Fruit is too strong, and eating it can indeed enhance a lot of magic power, and even permanently improve the level of the mage, but if you eat it, even if it is a mythical mage, it will be burst alive by that power." ”
??“ No way! As soon as these words fell into his ears, Asher almost fell headlong under unsteady feet, and then looked at the fruit in his hand with palpitations. Eat it and hang up?
??“ Fortunately, I didn't eat it greedily just now. Asher couldn't help but pat his chest.
?? Put the blue supreme fruit into the backpack first, and the prompt to complete the advanced task came immediately, no matter what, what Yashu is for is not actually the fruit itself, but to get it to advance to the legendary high level, paving the way for the advanced epic, and the most important thing is that after the advancement, he can go out.
?? In the task panel, he chose to submit to complete the task, and an abnormality occurred on Ashur's body instantly.
?? A faint blue fluorescence suddenly emerged out of thin air from the pores and skin of Ashur's body, floating towards the air, Ashur looked at this scene in a daze, and then watched the light gradually condense and gather, condensing a human figure in front of Ashur.
?? The figure showed a faint outline, but it gradually became clear after a while, and the moment he saw the face of the figure, Asher's eyes widened, this person was all too familiar to him.
?? The Arcane Guardian I've seen in the Tower of Dawn!
?? The old man in the gray cloak slowly appeared in front of Ashur, opened his slightly cloudy old eyes, and looked at Asher quietly with a gaze that Ashur couldn't explain, showing a faint smile on his face that seemed vicissitudes, and did not speak.
??“ Uh......" Asher swallowed, looking at the scene in front of him, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
?? To be honest, the sudden sight of the Arcane Guardian also made Ashur have mixed feelings, thinking that when he first saw the Arcane Guardian, Ashur had just entered the battle not long ago, and to put it bluntly, he was just a slightly smarter rookie mage, at least in the eyes of these powerful existences, he was simply an ant who could be pinched to death with his hands.
?? However, seven or eight months later, Ashur has grown into a mage who is close to epic, and he has epic power, even the precious spells such as ancient magic and dragon language have been collected by him, and he is even the captain of the Tower of Dusk, who is famous all over the world.
?? An adventurer once summed up a sentence, your life never knows what awaits you in the next second!
?? Ashur is no longer the fledgling rookie mage he was at the beginning, he can really call himself by the four honorary words "great magician", strength, honor, power, wealth, fame, status, brotherhood, friendship, except for love, Ashur can be said to have everything a person wants to have.
?? And the old man in front of him, this old man who can't be called ordinary, has been hidden in a corner of Ashur's body since he just started, and he has gone through all this, his growth, the arcane law guards it best!
?? At the same moment, in the call of the dragon behind Yashu, a faint dragon aura trembled, like a little mouse that had seen a natural enemy, obediently curled up, trying not to show a trace.
?? The momentum that was similar to that of a bully when he first spoke to Asher was also gone in an instant.
?? Looking at the arcane guardian in front of him, Ashur was silent for a while, the other party didn't speak, and Ashur didn't know where to start, just stood in place, holding one under the cloak with his palm, a little cramped.
?? At this time, the Guardian of Offa walked lightly, his old but still tall body, slowly walked around, and circled around Asher, who also secretly looked at him, who could almost be said to be Asher's teacher.
?? Compared to the image of the last time I saw the mirror image of the secret law, this time the arcane guardian is obviously a little different, the previous arcane guardian, just like an old-timer with a deep mission, although he also laughs freely, but he can't help but feel a heavy pressure.
?? This time, the protection of the arcane law seems to have completely relieved this pressure, like an old mage who is kindly looking at the growth of his younger generations, this kind of transformation makes Yashu have a certain feeling in his heart inexplicably.
?? The Guardian of Arcane circled around Asher for a short time, and then came to him again, his old face trembled a few times, and finally he spoke, with a faint relief in his tone, and a hint of relief in his bearing: "My student, you are finally here." ”
?? Ashur was shocked, although he had accepted the secret inheritance before, the arcane guardian had not personally admitted that he was his student, a mage like this who had reached the status of a great mage at the pinnacle would rarely publicly admit who was his student, and once he was recognized like that, it proved that his ability was really recognized by that mentor, and this ability did not refer to magical attainments, but something more precious.
?? Before Ashur could speak, the Arcane Guardian continued softly: "At the Tower of Dawn, I entrusted you with the power of the arcane, but I didn't expect that you could come to this point in such a short time, the road to chasing the power of the arcane is arduous, and you can come here proves that you can continue on this path, and Slakana has indeed found an excellent student for me. ”
??“ The teacher has won the prize. Asher was like a schoolboy at this time, putting on a respectful attitude that he hadn't seen in a long time, and made a junior salute to the Guardian of the Offa.
??“ No, when I was asleep on you, I didn't pay attention to what kind of process you went through because I didn't have the energy to make me manifest, but from you, I could feel a few familiar breaths, and not surprisingly, you seemed to be exposed to a lot of things that were far from being accessible to your level, which was really not easy. Guardian Offa shook his head slightly, looking at Asher with a smile in his eyes.
?? Ashur was silent, indeed, the creatures he had come into contact with so far, the mythical dragons were Croclus, Flame, and several other unnamed ones, and the demigod-level powerhouses had also seen the Coldlight Guardian Karegos and Nakaniksto, the Radiance Guardian, the Destruction Guardian, and so on, and he had also witnessed it.
?? Along the way, Asher was not so much about how much resistance he faced among the adventurers, but rather about the greater test that always came from those mythical beings and monsters.
?? Nodding with satisfaction, the Guardian of Offa turned his head and looked at the fruit tree that had been plucked by Ashur, and said as if talking to himself: "This magic orchard plane, there are countless mages who want to enter, but there are very few who succeed, this is the cemetery of mages, but it is also the dream pursued by every mage. ”
?? Ashur also looked at the fruit and nodded, the magic orchard would indeed pose a great threat to every mage who entered, but it was also a place where danger and opportunity coexisted.
??“ The secrets of the Enchanted Orchard, do you want to hear about it, related to the advancement of the Arcane Guardian. The Arcane Guardian suddenly turned his head, looked at Asher, and asked with a smile.
??“ Please let me know. Asher nodded without hesitation.
??“ Well, since we want to know this secret, we must keep this secret, even if we have this lineage, we can only tell it when necessary, and if ordinary people know this secret, they will be severely punished by the law. Guardian Offa's expression grew serious.
?? Ashur's face is also a positive one, from the severe punishment of the law, just listen to the literal meaning of something terrible enough, death, I'm afraid it is the lightest consequence, Ashur originally wanted to tell Ifrea, Jaferson and other mages to see if they can find a way to enter this orchard, but now it seems that it is still over.
??“ At the beginning of the birth of the magic orchard, it was a plane created by the god of magic Borado himself, and it was rumored that Borado was a superior god who mastered the power of arcane and elementals, but this is not the case, in fact, Borado only mastered one power of arcane, four elements such as water, fire, earth and wind, in the hands of the four elemental lords, although the four of them are only lower gods, but there are four ancient artifacts called the heart of molten fire, the heart of the tide, the heart of the storm and the heart of the stone, which are usually sealed in the four elemental planes. The Arcane Guardian said slowly.
??“ I've heard about it before, too. Ashur nodded, in fact, these four ancient artifacts, on the same level as the World Tree known as the Heart of the World, are very famous in the current Kadolin, and many adventurers believe that if they master any of them, they will have a power that no one can match.
??“ The creator of this magic orchard is the god of magic, or the god of arcane, but in the end, the laws of the world are finalized, and it is still completed by Bolado and the four elemental lords, these five supreme fruits, red, yellow, blue, purple and black, red for fire, yellow for wind, blue for arcane, purple for tides, and black for rocks. The Guardian of Arcane softly voiced a question that Asher had been asking all along.
??“ This is so, but isn't this blue supreme fruit planted by your own hands 8,000 years ago? Asher thought about it for a moment and noticed that there was a loophole, so he immediately asked.
??“ In fact, there were five people who came to this enchanted orchard, and I and what you call the Flame Guardian Storm Guardian were three of them, and we planted red, yellow, and blue fruits, and the seeds of these fruits came from our respective gods. Guardian of Offa said with a smile.
?? Ashur was slightly shocked, mythical level, this is the first time Ashur has come into contact with the secrets of this level, although he has also met with Aragon before, but after all, it is not him who has obtained the inheritance of the wind element lord, and the arcane guardian is completely different, just now the arcane guardian has mentioned "our inheritance", which makes Ya Xiu extraordinarily concerned.
?? Could it be that one's own strength and career ultimately come from ......
??“ You guessed it right. As if seeing what Ashur was thinking, the arcane guardian nodded and said, "People are always speculating about why the nine guardians are generally only thirty years old, and they have obtained mythical or even demigod-level powers, in fact, in addition to the immortal guardians, almost all of the powers of the nine guardians are inherited from the gods, which means that the inheritance you get is not from me, but from the god of arcane." ”
??“ Undead Guardians, like the Necroslay Prophets, were born under the Black Knight King and the Lich King, respectively, and possess the power of resentment and death from them, but they are individuals with their own will, but in general, they are also mythical creatures. ”
??“ That...... Could it be that I can finally make it to the Mythical Rank? Ashur, however, became excited because what he thought in his heart had been verified, and he couldn't help but ask immediately.
?? At this moment, Ashur felt that his heart was pounding, although the inheritance of the Arcane Guardian is good, but there is a drawback that his power comes from the Arcane Guardian, which is destined to make it difficult for him to surpass the Arcane Guardian, because the process of the world is now being accelerated by Ashur, God knows if the true god who has not appeared for a long time will appear now.
?? If Asher were still a myth at that time, he would be as powerless as an ant.
?? Hearing this secret, Asher was much more relieved.
