Chapter 887: Quest (4)
From where they were, there was the Ruby Cape, past the Ruby Cape, and further east was the Silver Falls, where the Starlight River separated the Partridge Hill from the White Tower, and the Cape Embankment from the south. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
If you want to talk about the southern countries, it is also a peculiar region, because a large part of the tributaries of the Starlight River are distributed like a fine net in the vast plains where the southern countries are located, and there are the highland Normans, and the dragon's spine mountain range in the distance to defend them from the far north, as well as the relationship between cold currents and hurricanes from the far north, and the relationship between the cold and hurricanes of the whistling plains, the land here is fertile, the climate is suitable, dense with lakes and forests, although there are occasional uncontrollable annoying conditions such as droughts and floods, but the previous abundant accumulation can not only satisfy the people of the southern countries, but also the humans and orcs of the entire continentDwarves and gnomes had no fear of famine - there were nearly a hundred and twenty small nations, with millions of people, and they were responsible for one-third of the continent's food supplyβbeans, wheat, buckwheat and rye, and rice (seeds stolen from the Serisians could be harvested three times a year), as well as cabbage, turnips, onions, garlic, etc., and they kept cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks, geese and rabbits among the hills. Bards often praise this blessed land of abundance in their poems, and it is unknown who blessed it, but even the forgetful human knows that these tiny nations scattered like stars were originally a vast empire. It used to be so powerful, so vast, the ruler of the empire was not even a human, but a dragon, he ruled the empire for thousands of years with wisdom that other races could not match, strong strength, and long life, even later, the era of dragon domination of mankind gradually left, and the Falun also slowly declined, but no country dared to have any rebellion when the silver dragon was still watching its empire.
When did the collapse of the empire begin? Perhaps it began when the ancient silver dragon obeyed the call of the law, after the gods of the dragons took them to the new plane, when the humans finally realized that the dragon had finally disappeared into their short life, and those ambitions and desires that had been extended by fear appeared in the dark corners like straw mushrooms after the rain with lightning speed, but if there was anyone who had inflicted a devastating blow on the pedestal of this ancient empire, then there was no one else but Eder, who was now a demigod lichβ Not everyone is lucky enough to know his name, though. But the dusty, brittle scrolls and stone slabs can still give those who love history and secrecy a glimpse into the subtleties of the veins of the eventual collapse and collapse of that vast empire.
But there are also some beings, gods or devils, who can almost be said to know all about this, especially Grazt, after all, at that time, he was grateful to Eder for freeing him from the prison of his lover Witch King Igo Vilver, but for serving him for fifty years, countless tragedies and disasters have his shadow roaming or lurking in them, but what makes him strange at that time is that as the heir of the silver dragon, after completely destroying his brother and a wonderful brother and sister, Ederna did not wear the crown and sit on the throne, although Grazt was not so surprised, after all, he had been aware of it since a long time agoThis dragonborn seems to be full of boredom and malice in this world, and his brother's desire to kill him because he is afraid of his strength and wisdom is like opening a valve, allowing this arrogant little dragon to pour out the darkness in his heart mercilessly.
Almost all of the Empire's direct blood relatives were killed by him, and all that was left was the illegitimate children who had no inheritance rights, and the collateral who had only meager bloodline, and he gathered them, and when these weak people trembled, thinking that they would not escape death, they unexpectedly received a generous gift- Ederna divided the empire into small, scattered plots of land, and then divided them among them by rolling the dice, and then he could become king, grand duke, or lord of a free city, he didn't mind. Of course, this kind of partition is bound to bring long-term chaos, and who doesn't want more people and territories? But this is no longer something that Adeerna or Grazt will care about, Grazt has returned to the bottomless abyss, in order to deal with many matters after his disappearance, I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to have the interest and opportunity to return to the main material plane for decades, and Edelna, thinking of this, the dark lord will sigh, as a dragonborn, at that time he can only be said to be a young man, but who would have thought that by the time he saw the black lamb again, Ederna has become a senior lich on the Seventy-Seven Islands.
The demon found himself unexpectedly sentimental, and he blamed the problem on the decoration of the room they were in, the tower originally belonged to a Batzu mongrel, but the furniture, draperies, and statues inside were decorated in the style of the Falun Empire from more than a thousand years ago, the kind that the silver dragon likedβ Elegant, steady yet delicate and ornate lines, embellishments and colors, as he saw now, were embroidered with intricately curved silver vines between the dark blue velvet drapery at night, and in the vines, pearls and crystals like dew shimmered softly and movingly in the fluorite light, and a young silver dragon hung down from the tip of the curtain, its wings spread, each scale was only the size of a grain of rice, but the demon looked at it at a glance, and it was not at all strange that there were subtle lines on the scalesβ It's like a real dragon. The ebony wall panels stretched from the ground to the abrupt dome, and although it was lit by fluorite, there was still a black iron lampstand shaped in the shape of Medusa's head hanging from above, and each pit viper had a lamp base in its mouth, and the lamp base was infused with devil's grease, so that the lamp took on an eerie deep purple color, and the portraits depicted on the dome were constantly changing their eyes and posture with their slight shaking, perhaps as many abyssal creatures liked, the original owners of this place also injected unwilling souls into these portraits, and they were still whispering when no one was around, but as soon as Ederna and Grazt entered here, they immediately fell silent, like cicadas.
Dragons like rooms that are unusually tall and empty, and according to Grenada's example, each room must be able to accommodate the true body of a dragon, and this room is not intended for dragons, but it is similar, after all, the devils also have bloated bodies like hills. Because of this, the furniture from the Falun era is quite suitable for this place - a desk that stretches half the room, bookshelves from the floor to the top, and tall and wide chairs.
But Grazt could still tell that this was a place that was about to be stopped for a while, as Ederna had said, and there was not a trace of a demigod lich in the room, except for the crystal ball on the desk.
"Do you still need this now?" asked Grazt, surprised, as he rested his hand on the desk, and Edair bounced himself in front of the crystal ball, almost without the demeanor and demeanor of a demigod lich - but let him go, who of the only two bastards here could not know whom?
The crystal ball could probably wrap around Edelle, which was so large that it could only be said to be the usual evil taste of a demigod lich, its surface was as smooth as a mirror, transparent as ice, and only a white floc as small as a finger in the center, but it quickly changed in response to Edelle's shattered rune - it spun rapidly like an active mass of water, and grew larger and larger, eventually engulfing the entire sphere, and Ederna pressed his tail vertebrae against the neck bone, waitingβ And the Grazt faction leisurely cast more spells, they are not sure if it is other gods, or powerful demons, the devil and the caster are doing the same thing as them, but the runes of Ederna and the magic of Grazt can make them undetectable, and even if they do, they will not be suspected of them because of the spell and the source.
The clouds in the orb finally cleared a moment later, and the demons and demigods saw their familiar faces, long black hair, and black eyes, and Cremar looked into the void, as if he had a feeling, but he couldn't be sure, and Eder raised his tail vertebrae, "shh The scene in the orb turned, moving from the black-haired dragonborn to the bottom, it was a map, and Grazt knew at a glance that the part with the small nails was the southern countries, and he thought that the same was true for Edair, and then the location of the scene moved upwards again, and landed on the body of a young girl, "Afra," Edel muttered, immediately deflecting the direction of the orb, letting the position fall on the other girl, Grazter shook his head, at the time of the bottomless abyss, he couldn't be sure, but now he could be sure, the divine power in Ferrekhill's body was indeed boldly stolen by Cremar, maybe just a small point, almost summed up in the attrition, but as soon as he saw Afra, he smelled the traces of the lost divine power.
The demon's finger landed on the crystal ball, and because of the cheating just now, Edair's gaze stopped moving, and the scene in the sphere was that of a black-haired, pointy-eared elf girl, "Lucieu," said the Lord of the Emerald Grove, "the child of the Queen of Emerald Grove Island." The demon followed Lucieu's line of sight, and without much difficulty found the man she was watchingβ" She liked him. "How amusement," said Grazt, "that she knew that Cremar had been ruthlessly abandoned by his mother and his people?"
"Yes," said Edelna, who was not betrothed to any woman or had offspring when he was a living being, was as familiar with and knew how best to use emotions, whether they were his own or not, as all immortals: "She only feels sorry and pity, and confuses them with love, or deepens the latter because of the former." β
Grazter glanced at Ederna who, at first, had thought that Ederna had been hurt by his blood relative, but later he realized that he was afraid that when they first met, this guy was already going crazy, and by the time Falun was destroyed, Ederna had thrown off the last shackles - completely freed himself.
The position in the orb began to slowly turn again after the demon satisfied his curiosity, and finally the demon pointed to one of them: "That's him." β

"Sparrow?" exclaimed the otherworldly soul in disbelief, "Sparrow, is Colbert still there?"
"Corbett left us thirty years ago, but I think," he said, "he must have gone to the Mourning Wasteland with great joy," and the elf's eyes were full of relief, "He didn't die of illness in his bed, he heard Suren's call in battle with piratesβshe summoned him, and he departed...... Now the Sparrow belongs to his grandson. β
The otherworldly soul stopped, and he had seen a young man jump briskly off the outstretched gangway.

Before, it barely had time to think about this, let alone any special abilities, extra subsidies, and it didn't even get the time when those cannon fodder traversers were dazed or happy, and in an instant it found itself becoming Mario (Mario is a world-famous superstar who grew up eating mushrooms. It is characterized by a large nose, a hat, overalls with a suspender, and a beard. Together with his twin brother Louie, he has been Nintendo's superstar role for many years, the nostalgic red and white machine) ...... It's still the final level of the god-on-god version, and it's not just a few constant petrification critters that need to be dealt with, but countless hurricanes, rainstorms, thunder, hail, fire, rocks, small or large chunks of land, sea, forests, ruins...... It's not the weak and helpless lovely princess who is saved, but the evil undead who are almost exhausted in their spells, and they are very irritable, but outsiders are completely understandable about this, and the victims of violent robbery and illegal possession certainly don't have, uh, good moodsβeven if it's just a skeleton...... It's still a skeleton that could be destroyed at any moment - it has no memory of spells, and even with the full efforts of the lich bound to the depths of the sea of consciousness (with sharp rebukes and painful curses), it still has very few spells to use...... Before that, the poor three hundred or so bones of the lich had been ravaged by the unpredictable vagaries of the Chaos Sea.
