Chapter 250: Impact
The collapse of the magic net and the fall of the gods of the magic god system are naturally major events that affect all planes.
The entire world of the Forgotten Realms is filled with magical powers and fantastical qualities. The Mystic of Arcane has been whispering to those who seek it, in the slight creak of the continents that have been drifting for centuries, in the splash of the rapidly flowing river, in the every breath of beasts large and small, in the sighing roar of the wind. Primordial magic is the wild thing of creation itself, the unconscious and unconscious beings, immersed in every bit of matter, and manifested in every release of energy in the whole world.
Sorcerers, sorcerers, priests, warlocks, bards, rangers, and even ronins, warriors, rangers, and adventurers of other professions have summoned magic-derived magic to unleash powerful spells, or to obtain magic by enforcing contracts with mysterious beings to heal wounds, fight evil, or gain great power.
This is the powerful influence of magic in this world, it is so deep and penetrates into every aspect of this world, affecting all living beings, all things, and all phenomena in this world in countless ways.
In fact, in the Abel Torrell system, magic is so abundant that the land is filled with strange landscapes. The free-floating earth hung in the air like a huge speck of dust, and nothing was visible but air supporting it. These great spectacles that display the glory of nature surprise those who stumble upon them.
However, it is the kingdoms that are so immersed in magic that when the web of magic collapses, when the gods of magic fall, the catastrophe caused is so great! When the plague consumes magic itself, the world is so particularly vulnerable.
There are many disasters caused by the collapse of the magic web and the fall of the magical gods, but the first thing mortals feel is the end of the mage!
Wizards, sorcerers, warlocks, and even all caster professions that rely on magic spells have completely lost the power connected to the magic web after the magic web collapses!
This collapse is so complete that even the vast majority of magic items, including scrolls, magic arrays, and strange objects, will lose their effectiveness. Only the special creation that takes the core and the mage tower that takes the magic pool, and it still relies on the magic power accumulated before to sustain it for a while.
Strength is the only guarantee of status!
So, what will happen when everyone, especially the mage, knows that the magic web has completely collapsed, the goddess of magic has truly fallen, and the power of the mage is gone.
There is no doubt that the collapse of the magic net will bring earth-shaking changes to the status of the mage, and the undercurrent hidden in the darkness will explode all at once.
After a short period of deliberation and repeated inquiries with the gods and prophets, it was determined that the magic web had truly collapsed this time, that the goddess of magic had completely fallen, and that the power of the mage had been lost forever! A purge of mages has unfolded on the mainland!
This is not a conspiracy deliberately planned by a certain force or organization, but a backlash from the entire mortal society against the once strong position of the mage!
Kings and nobles covet the mage's wealth, and the commoners hate the mage's accidents and disasters! The adventurers remembered their feud with the mage! In short, the whole society has unanimously launched a purge and liquidation against the mage!
At this time, an unprecedented mage catastrophe!
It has affected almost the entire main material world! With the exception of a few churches and kingdoms, the vast majority of organizations and citizens have joined in the frenzied destruction of mages.
However, the Church of the Lord of War, who single-handedly planned the conspiracy to defeat the magic net, was the most active organization to save the mages, and the oracle issued by the Lord of War himself mobilized all the forces of the church to collect all the mages persecuted in the Faeron Continent and transfer them to the New World.
In the same way, Dugu Feng, who had annexed the priesthood of knowledge creation and other priesthoods, also issued an oracle, ordering the Knowledge Church and the Killing Church to jointly provide shelter for the mage, and collect all the mage books in the name of the Lord of Knowledge to protect the essence and fire of civilization!
"What a stupid mortal who would dare to destroy a civilization that has accumulated thousands or even tens of thousands of years for the sake of short-term benefits."
The Throne of Truth, the kingdom of the Lord of War, the gods of the Landis god line, are bathed in bright sunshine, while leisurely strolling in the kingdom of God, while watching the strife of mortals on the earth, and indifferently giving stupid comments!
Magic is the most convenient ladder for mortals to approach the gods, and the magical achievements accumulated by mortal civilization over countless years may not be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the gods as a whole, but they are enough to win the respect of the gods!
However, just because of a disaster, a mortal destroys his own magical achievements accumulated over countless years because of his own short-sightedness and infighting, what a foolish act!
"Mortals are always so short-sighted, their short life is destined to not carry out too long-term plans!"
A god who had recovered from an ancient era said lightly that he had seen similar situations more than once in the long time of the gods! The great empires of the elven and advanced magical civilizations, the Magic Empire of Imaska, the Magic Empire of Netheriel, every time the glorious magical civilization falls, such a scene will always be repeated on the earth!
This raid wiped out the magical gods, and the Lantis gods, as one of the victors, reaped a great harvest, and each god received a lot of benefits! Therefore, the entire god system is thriving and vibrant. In particular, Anniene, the Lord of War, who is the main god of the god system, has been greatly supplemented and directly promoted to the peak of the powerful divine power of Godhead 19!
"Looks like we're all wrong, he didn't show up this time!"
Standing on the steps of the first palace of the Divine Court, the Lord of War, Anniene, looked down at the mortal earth, shook her head slightly, and withdrew her gaze with a little regret.
Of course, the disaster caused by the collapse of the magic net is not only unlucky for the mage. As the magical energy that controls all the free energy in the world, the magical network that penetrates deep into the root system of the world tree system, once it collapses, it will bring a series of dominoes to the same disaster as the collapse.
The web continues to crumble, and the aftermath is still dancing and raging on Torreel, and much more.
The Plague of Magic, just when the entire continent was feverishly engaged in the Great Reckoning of the persecution of mages. A magical plague has ravaged the world and will forever change the world as we know it.
The Plague of Magic is much more than just a plague, as it consumes more than just the flesh. For the Plague of Magic, everything is meat that can be devoured, and it is insatiable to devour it. Greedily devouring flesh, rocks, magic, space, and perhaps even the flow of time has been disrupted.
Where magic is completely unrestrained, the plague of magic consumes rocks and soil as easily as it devours bones and spells.
A large part of the surface of the Faeron Continent collapsed into the Dark Realm, and part of the Falling Star Sea was sucked dry, and the sea water flowed down to the Dark Light Sea far underground (and the area where the Falling Star Sea dried up became a continent-sized crater, called the Dark Abyss).
Several ancient empires in the southern region of the sucked Falling Star Sea were split into wilderness by the event, some in towering rocky fields, some in bottomless mountain gorges, and some on misty peaks.
Some historic areas have been largely altered by the magical plague, including Muholland, Enser, Jondas, part of Agoralon, the Sea of Fallen Stars, and Char. The area that was once known as the Kingdom of Harua was devastated by the explosion of every one of its recorded and stored spells when it disappeared at the same time. The explosion was also one of the reasons for the collapse of the land bridge linking Chult to the glorious south, leaving only some of the scattered archipelago intact.
This magical catastrophe has even changed the geography of the entire world of Torreel forever.
Tarrel's long-missing sister planet, Arber, has once again reappeared in the orbital annex of Toriel, making the Torrell-Abel system a veritable name.
And, perhaps because the magic of this world has been controlled by the goddess Mystra for so long, that when the weaver of the web dies, the magic itself spontaneously and devastatingly bursts out of its restraints. The wild magic that existed in various regions that had long since broken through the constraints of the magic net first erupted and spread around after the boundary that bound it suddenly and mysteriously disappeared.
This magical plague continues to wreak havoc on the realms, even distorting time and space, so much so that parts of Planet Abel have their topography reversed from parts of Planet Torrell. Such areas also include their inhabited areas, which have been swapped places with each other as if they had been newly created.
On the other side of the Sea of Nothing, entire continents that had long disappeared reappeared and surrounded the New World, as if time had been reversed, allowing the ancient, fabled worlds to reappear in the world.
This temporal cataclysm not only affected the main material world, but even reappeared almost mysterious realms that were difficult to reach, such as the realm of spirits, such as the mysterious realm inhabited by goblins, and so on. They have even relocated the demonic home, rewriting the concept of cosmology.
The effects of the magical plague were not limited to the main physical world, but also entered the realm of demons, gods, and some lost souls, dividing some nations and merging others, and leaving many unfortunate gods in a chaotic place.
However, the whole world has changed so dramatically that the god Io, who was expected by the gods, still does not appear.
"This is not good news, perhaps, we need to reestimate his strength and power!"
Standing at the top of the stairs with Annion, Lord of War, are the Elven Lord Andro, Sivannas, the Lord of Nature, Shar, the Goddess of the Night, and Aelita, the Lord of Slaughter!
They are all existences that have reached the realm of the ancient gods and are reaching the peak of the powerful divine power of Godhead 19! With the exception of the Mother Earth, they are some of the strongest gods in the realm!
This is an alliance that belongs exclusively to the Old Gods! Ever since the Sage Havoc, the gods have realized the threat posed to them by the god Io! Therefore, a long time ago, some gods who had broken through to the realm of the ancient gods began to secretly conspire to rebel against Io's rule.
And with the emergence of more and more ancient gods, especially the emergence of many gods who have reached the peak of the powerful divine power of Godhead 19, the strength of this alliance is getting stronger and stronger, and it even has the courage and action to test Io's bottom line.
