Chapter 800: The Realm of All Souls

Agro Greybeard changed into a pair of white deerskin gloves, carefully cut a small nail from the dried corpse's finger with pliers, and took a small amount of black mud from the pool, grinded and mixed it, and put it into his large pipe, ready to perform an after-knowledge divination in the tomb hall.

According to him, the divination at the scene of the incident works best. The tomb was secluded, sealed and sturdy, and there was no sign of any activity other than the dried corpse of an Azorean nobleman of unknown origin. The more single the information of the tomb, the clearer the direction of the divination ritual.

However, the reverse-reading and expansion of this theorem of hindsight seems to indicate that the Azorean Tatars deliberately chose inaccessible barren mountains and mountains to build hidden tombs. One of their purposes may also be to remove distractions, and to have a very obvious sense of ritual - some kind of directed ritual.

To whom does the burial ritual of the Azota point to?

This question cannot be answered yet, but if Aglow Greybeard uses the divination of the hindsight to find the items stolen by the halfling, the most he will do is to anger the little halfling, but if he wants to divinate the origin of the corpse of the Azoretta nobles at the scene of the burial ceremony, who knows what kind of existence will be alarmed?

It can be said that Aglow's divination is very dangerous and the consequences are unpredictable. Victor remained silent and watched, and did not say a word to warn. Smart people are frivolous and arrogant, and like to express their opinions regardless of the occasion and show their cleverness, while wise people are calm and humble and will not question professionals in unfamiliar fields.

Eglow Greybeard is a professional dwarven prophet, and with the unparalleled heritage of the Elven Empire, he knows exactly what he is doing, and he should know how to avoid danger.

Victor watched as the graybeard dwarf took out an oval-shaped leaf that was as green as jade and put it in his mouth, and couldn't help but nod secretly, speculating that the moonlight leaf charm could provide a certain degree of support for the dwarf's divination.

After all the preparations, Agro lit the blue flame of the pipe filled with tobacco, ritual oils, and information objects near the red oil cup, and as his breath fluctuated, the strange smell of smoke spewed and absorbed from his nose, ears, and mouth, and swirled around the dwarf's side, as if the flowing water gradually flooded his body, and only a pair of fiery red eyes appeared in the smoke.

The last time Victor used his rival talent to observe the dwarven prophet for a divination ritual from a distance of more than 20 kilometers, he couldn't "see" clearly enough and couldn't distinguish the colors. This time he watched Agro Greybeard demonstrate divination up close, and Victor was surprised to find that his extraordinary eyesight could not see through the smoke, and the dwarf seemed to merge with the smoke and become a new life with elemental characteristics. Of course, the dwarf's physical form is still stable, and it is his spiritual power that diffuses, and it is his soul that changes.

In fact, the dwarf race is very peculiar, according to the life level system of the Elven Empire, they are born with third-order lifeforms, one order higher than the wild elves, and the same level as ordinary ogres. Both dwarves and ogres possess tough bones and muscles, which are the physical characteristics of ferocious creatures, but ordinary dwarves do not have the psychic instincts that are typical of ferocious creatures, including a sense of danger and a battle instinct. At this point, dwarves are more like human arcane warriors and psychic warriors, with the same fierce body and ordinary mental state.

Victor witnessed Aglow's ritual and became convinced that the dwarven mind also had the ability to foresee and post-knowledge, and that it was deeper and clearer than the Tyrographer, almost touching the mysterious ocean of pan-consciousness.

This must be the Hill Giant's bloodline talent at work.

Theoretically, the proto-human can simulate the bloodline talent of any race, and the effect will definitely be reduced, but it also includes the foreknowledge talent of the hill bloodline. The best proof of this is that the pastors of the Radiant Church are able to perform great prophecy. The Great Prophecy may not be a simulation of the divination of a dwarven prophet, but the two have the same legal basis, as does the mental intuition of the ferocious warrior.

If you give a 100 point to the divination of a dwarven prophet, you can score 1000 points for great prophecy, 10 points for the danger premonition of a fierce warrior, and 20 points for battle intuition.

Although the dwarves' ability to foresee and post-knowledge requires a special ritual state and the use of tobacco drugs, there is no doubt that this is a point in Randall's puzzle of knowledge. X-3 silently lists the Dwarven Bloodline as a new subject to be solved, and Victor does not expect to be able to replicate the Dwarves' innate abilities, but he believes that this is a way for the Psychic Bloodline Theory to solve the problem of combat intuition.

None of the Silver Eagle Scouts could have imagined what it meant to have the Nightingale observe the divination rituals of the Dwarven Prophets.

Aglo himself was ignorant of the outside world, and his mind was completely immersed in myths.

This time, the divination was even deeper than Agro had imagined, but luckily he had taken a Moonlight Leaf Charm beforehand and muttered, "The Realm of All Souls...... Mourning the Witch King...... The undead are trapped...... Blood Sacrifice of Sorrow ...... "After reciting the elements of divination, he decisively terminated the divination, and the smoke covering his body slowly cleared, and everyone saw the dwarven prophet sitting on the ground and snoring and sleeping.

It was noon the next day when Agro awoke from his slumber, and the warmth of the bearskin mattress made him roll comfortably on it. At this moment, the tent was suddenly opened, and Aglo, who was pouting like a baby, saw Elus Yuege staring at him in surprise, and her old face suddenly swollen red, and she yelled angrily, "Don't you know to knock on the door?"

"If the tent had a door...... I won't knock either. Elus grabbed the dwarf by the fat on the back of his neck and carried him straight out of the tent, and the biting cold wind finally brought the dwarf to his senses.

After a while, Graybeard sat around the campfire with a bearskin mattress and the others, and said in a colorful voice: "I saw it, the Azoreta kid with the feathered crown came from the cave in the belly of the mountain, and beside him were two three-meter-tall undead giants, not the undead trolls of the Despair Forest, but they were almost the same, or they were wrapped in shrouds...... They are the bodyguards of the Azoreta Kid, and maybe he doesn't need bodyguards, because several Ant-Man monsters in the pit have turned into white-eyed undead and don't attack the Featherboy at all...... Well, the ant undead ignore him and just wander around the tunnels. The Feather Boy walked all the way to the end of the tunnel, and then climbed up the tunnel, chanting a nasty incantation in his mouth....... guess what, the stone platform blocking the top of the pit was pushed away....... haha, isn't it unexpected? You must not have thought that there was a Feather Boy in the tomb, he was pale-eyed, he was an undead, pushed the stone platform away and let the new Feather Boy enter the tomb. ”

"The new Feather Boy calls the Undead Feather Boy 'Grandpa'...... He grunted and talked nonsense to his grandfather...... What I didn't hear clearly must be useless nonsense. In short, the undead will not take care of the new Feather Boy, not even its former grandson. The new Feather Boy cried for a while, took his grandfather, Featherboy, to the pool, and ordered his grandfather to jump into the black mud and watch the undead corrupt into a puddle of black mud. The new feather boy grabbed the black mud and stuffed it into his mouth until he couldn't eat it anymore, then he lay down on the stone platform, and stabbed his stomach with the palm of his hand, and the blood couldn't stop flowing out, and flowed down the stone platform into the black mud pool...... He hiccuped and I fell asleep too. ”

Aglow's words contained a lot of information, and before everyone could fully digest it, the quick-tempered Udrite said first: "Before you fell asleep, you said the elements of divination, what realm of all souls, mourning witch kings, the trapped undead, and the blood sacrifice of sorrow......"

"Divination element? Did I mention it?" Iglow was confused, his face was confused, and he immediately shook his head firmly and said, "Impossible, I know that divination cannot have divination elements...... Udrite must be hallucinating. ”

"You did. Olavi Moonsong twitched his long ears and looked sympathetically at the Dwarven Prophet, "If you don't believe me, ask Lord Nightingale." ”

Victor coughed lightly, met Aglow's inquiring gaze, nodded, and asked, "I don't understand the divination of the dwarven prophets. It seems that there shouldn't be an element of divination in hindsight, right?"

"Of course, there is no element of divination! Predictive divination should have elements of divination, so it needs to be interpreted by divination. Aiglo exclaimed.

"It seems that you have forgotten," said Victor, "and it is possible that you have forgotten something, or to protect yourself, or to protect the leaves of the moonlight...... What I want to ask is, what if you later know that the object of divination is not dead?"

"What? not dead...... The new feather boy is dead, everyone has seen it, haha...... Ha......" Aglow's laughter became more and more unassailable, and he muttered, "If he hadn't died, I would have watched him all the time...... But I can't remember. ”

Victor raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "The body of the undead is dead, is the soul also dead?" I'm afraid no one can explain this question, let's treat the soul of the new feather boy as if it is not dead, and enter some mysterious world, will Aglow's after-knowledge divination chase into it?"

"The realm of all souls. Elus Yuege said slowly, paused, and asked, "What does the blood sacrifice of the mourning witch king, the trapped undead, and the mourning mean?"

Aglow stroked his gray beard and said distressedly: "Don't look at me, I have no impression of the elements of divination, and I have missed the opportunity to interpret divination. ”

The dwarven prophets were unable to decipher the forgotten elements of divination, and Victor knew something about them. According to Trigovar's ancestral notes, the supreme ruler of the Assyrian Empire was called the "Witch King", and below them was the "Witch Doctor", who belonged to the ruling class of the Assyrian Empire. The witch doctors of the Assyrian Empire believed that all things were animistic and that the Assyrians could gain eternal life if their souls could enter the realm of all souls after death, so the Assyrians maintained and expanded the realm of all souls through blood sacrifices.

This coincides with the authority of the King of the Ancient Divine Realm.

The Assyrian Empire was opening up a plane of souls according to the path of the king of the spirit realm, and the object of their worship was the realm of all souls.

Perhaps, part of the will of the king of the spirit world will be re-strengthened in the realm of all spirits that the Assyrian witch doctors believe, but the clerics of the Lord of Light are hostile to all demons and evil gods with their own will, and the ancestors of the Trigovar family did not hesitate to destroy the altar of the Assyrian Empire and destroy the blood sacrifice ritual of the witch doctors.

As Victor can imagine, the Witch King who presided over the blood ritual was severely revolted, and he took revenge on the Golden Paladins of House Trigovar, but the greatest threat came from the Ant-Man Queen, the undead in the Assyrian population.

Why is the Ant-Man Empress called the Undead?

Because His will can descend on any Ant-Man, even if the witch doctor of the Assyrian Empire kills the Ant-Queen who bears the Empress's will, he cannot completely destroy him.

The Ant-Man Empress clearly has the characteristics of elemental life, and she is a part of the Spirit King, and may be able to enter the realm of all spirits and seize the split will of the Spirit King.

The context of the matter is clear, the Sorrowful Witch King of the Assyrian Empire holds some of the authority in the realm of all souls, and he has trapped most of the will of the Ant-Man Empress in the realm of all souls. This would explain the fact that the Ant-Man army spared the remnants of the Assyrian Empire and turned to attack the distant Centaur hills, and acted in a dull, alchemical creature style. The Ant-Man Empress is fighting the Sorrowful Witch King in the realm of all souls, and she doesn't have much energy to command the Ant-Man Legion how to fight.

The Witch King of Sorrow, or the Lord of Sorrow, may not be in a good situation, he can stop the army of Ant-Man from attacking his people, turning Ant-Man into an undead creature who has entered the realm of sorrow, but the Ant-Man Empress has invaded the realm of all souls. As an alchemy tower of pan-consciousness aggregates, the will of the Ant-Man Empress is almost indestructible. Victor can come to this conclusion by referring to the soul qualities of alchemical creatures. It seemed only a matter of time before the Ant-Man Empress took possession of the realm of all souls.

The descendants of the blood of the Assyrian witch kings had to sacrifice themselves to increase the power of the Lord of Sorrow through sacrifice.

There are still many mistakes in this hypothetical deduction, such as Victor's failure to figure out what role the Lords of Despair and the Black Blood Lord are playing. However, if the assumption is not a major problem overall, and the balance between the Lord of Sorrow and the Ant-Man Empress is maintained, the threat of the Ant-Man army to the Centaur Hills is limited. The premise is that the Ant-Man Empress cannot escape from the realm of all souls, and cannot devour the will of the Lord of Sorrow and fully grasp the authority of the realm of all souls.

Victor was pessimistic about this, otherwise there would be no need for Old Man Miller to sneak into Randall's Parish.

At present, there are only two ways to deal with the Ant-Man Empress, one is for Sylvia to personally take action and wipe it out, and the other is to find the elemental rune crystal prepared by the alchemist of the Esoteric Society, destroy the will side of the Ant-Man Alchemy Tower, and let his immortal soul fire be assimilated and absorbed by the fire elemental sea.

Victor would rather compromise with the Ant-Man Empress than sacrifice Sylvia. The first approach is completely unnecessary. As for the second method, Victor still has many mysteries to solve, but he believes that the power of the Lord of Sorrow cannot be weakened for the time being, and he must try to maintain the balance of the realm of all souls.

"Try not to touch the things in the altar of the tomb. "I guess there are many similar tomb altars around the temple of the Azores, which are connected to the tunnels dug by the Ant-Man undead to form a grand underground world...... Moving the tomb altar may have bad consequences, and it will not be conducive to us infiltrating the temple in search of Freya's tears. ”

"Now, we have two ways, go directly to the temple of the Azores, or try our luck in the tunnels of the mountain. Victor looked at Eloth Yuege and whispered, "You make a decision." ”

When Elus was in the tomb, the danger of entrenching in her heart and the sense of being watched were much diluted, but burrowing into the ground was not something she liked, after all, the cave in the belly of the mountain limited the natural abilities of the elves.

"I'm inclined to go through the mountainside tunnels......" Eluss hesitated for a few seconds, then gave her initial plan, and added, "I need someone to come up with a completely opposite opinion and reason. ”

"Haha, dwarves don't have a contrary opinion, and it is not a dwarf who has a contrary opinion. Judrite said happily.

When Anglise Fengge saw her friend looking at her, she sighed and said, "Okay, I'll raise an objection for a reason...... Does Greybeard's previous prophetic divination really point to our target, the Elven Empire's holy relic, Freya's Tears?"

The preoccupied dwarven prophet jumped up suddenly, and shouted angrily: "I interpret divination very accurately, very accurately, especially accurately! The three divination elements of the tunnel, ants, and black mud have all appeared, what else does the cautious Angel have to say?"

"What about Freya's Tears?" asked the dryad female with a smile.

"The 'acorns' in the divination element represent holy relics!"

"What if not? What if you misinterpret it? I remember your guru calling you a fool just because you would make a mistake in your divination interpretation. Angelis teased.

Aiglo held back his nose and said weakly, "Well, my mentor doesn't have a good temper...... The dwarves you know are not very good-tempered. My mentor called me stupid, and he liked me. ”

Everyone couldn't help but laugh, several dwarves were already rolling on the snow with their stomachs in their hands, and they laughed at the snort of wild boars.

Elus smiled and said to Angelis, "Sister, your objection is not valid...... We've all come here, and there's no reason to go back. What's more, human alien expeditions will not return empty-handed, no matter what, we have to find out. ”

Angelis also smiled and said, "Well, my reason is not valid, just because I didn't say it...... I'm in favor of sneaking through the tunnel. ”
