Chapter 81: Records in the Cult of the Holy Maiden

"So, is it a matter of time magic?" Sun Chenghuan asked his question with a little caution. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Looks like you do know something!" the Great Sage smiled, "We've already destroyed all the records!, where did you know that?"

"You guys?"

"The Cult of the Holy Maiden and the Tower of the Priests. The Great Sage put on a look of true knowledge, "The Holy Maiden Sect is responsible for controlling mortals, and the Mage Tower is responsible for blocking the wise. This is also the main reason why the Priest's Tower and the Cult of the Holy Maiden were able to coexist in harmony for more than 6,000 years during the Holy Maigen calendar. ”

"Because of time magic?"

"No, you're not entirely right. The Great Sage shook her head, "It should be said that because of magic." Because in the era before the Holy Maiden Calendar, only space-time magic could be called magic. You've heard about this, right?"

"Hmm. Sun Chenghuan remembered the voice in the forbidden land and nodded.

"Sure enough, you know too much...... "The Great Sage laughed, "If you were in the Holy Maiden calendar, you would have been qualified to be cleared by the Holy Maiden Sect by now." ”

"Is it just because of this?" Sun Chenghuan looked ridiculous.

"Just because of this?" the Great Saintess sighed, "You're a smart kid, so let me ask you, don't you think it's strange that the Ace Continent is so neat and boxy?"

"What do you mean?" Sun Chenghuan was stunned.

An answer immediately popped into his mind.

It's scary......

"Yes. The Great Sage saw it, and Sun Chenghuan guessed something, "The original Ace Continent has a much larger territory than it is now, tens of billions of people, and thousands of races of humans, as well as countless creatures of various kinds, magical creatures, bears that can use the Wind Curse, and spiders who can use Firestorm...... Wait a minute. ”

“...... It's scary. Sun Chenghuan was stunned.

Firestorm spiders?

"Humans at that time were even more terrifying!" the Great Sage shook her head, "A person begins to learn magic from the moment he is born...... Well, in that era, it was called elemental application, not magic, and by the time he was eighteen years old, he could already use at least seven or eight spells of ninth-level magic according to your current standards. Then, they go to the magic test. ”

"Magic test?" Sun Chenghuan's heart moved.

Is there a trial space?

"Well, there is no record of how the test was carried out, but it is just that the person who passes the test will get the relevant resources that match his talents, whether he is suitable to become a magician, or just survive as a commoner, there will be an answer. And those who are suitable for learning magic will enter a place to study magic......"

"Mage Tower. ”

Sun Chenghuan instantly understood.

"Yes. The Great Sage smiled and nodded. "A magician studies magic on his own, it can be said to be exploration, but when a group of magicians get together, they will all become crazy, especially if this is a group of magicians who have the ability to change the world, time magic and space magic...... I don't have that blessing to see. ”

“...... Well. Sun Chenghuan nodded.

He seemed lucky enough to see ...... A few.

"Anyway, at one point, something crazy finally happened. The Great Sage continued, "A magician who has lost his heart and gone crazy because of the death of his beloved in an accident, he has to turn back time to save his sweetheart. ”

"This ......"

"What's even more terrifying is that the dead sweetheart...... She is a high-ranking saint of the Cult of the Holy Maiden. The Great Sage sighed, "The cause of her death was actually to seal a Chaos Rift that was accidentally opened by a creature called Nightmare......"

"And then?" Sun Chenghuan seemed to smell something.

"And then, the magician succeeded in saving his sweetheart. He turned back time, and then, with his magic, stopped the High Saintess who was going to sacrifice his life to close the rift, and then, trouble arose. ”

"Because of that rift?"

"Not only that, but also because, the magician found out that there was actually a self. ”

"Two magicians?" Sun Chenghuan was stunned.

"Yes. The Great Sage nodded, "The Mage Tower was stunned all of a sudden, they have always been careful to only stop time and not let time go backwards, so this has never happened, two people who are exactly the same...... was captured by the mage tower to do research. And this research has involved a lot of energy in the Mage Tower, you know, this kind of unprecedented thing, for those who are curious about magic, the attraction is simply unparalleled. ”

And then ...... No one cares about the chaos rift?" Sun Chenghuan realized the problem.

"The Mage Tower has no time to take care of anything else, and the king who really ruled this continent at that time was busy choosing a concubine......"

“...... What about the Holy Maiden?"

"The Holy Maiden Cult thought that the high-ranking Holy Maiden had completed its task, and besides, the Holy Maiden Cult was actually only a small religion at that time...... Perhaps, about the same as now. There's only so much we can do. ”

"And then?"

"And then, fifty years later......"

“...... Why haven't you found anything unusual for 50 years?"

"At that time, the Ace Continent was a hundred times larger than it is now, and the area where the Nightmare Beasts were active was already inaccessible, it was a desert larger than the entire Ace Continent now. Fifty years later, it was discovered that in that desert, a nation of demons had emerged. ”

“...... Country?"

Sun Chenghuan suddenly remembered an old thing that the puppet had told him.

"It's an empire. The Great Sage nodded, "After that, the war between humans and demons broke out, which lasted for hundreds of years, and the king of that demon empire almost died with the absolute leader of the human race at that time. ”

“...... Isn't it amazing?" Sun Chenghuan was a little unsure of this concept.

"The current Ace Continent is the only piece of land without demons that the leader of the human race cut out of the Ace Continent, which had been polluted by demons at that time, when he was dying, and used his magic to teleport to an unknown space, protect it, and leave a little fire for mankind...... This is our current boxy Ace Continent. You say, is it amazing?"

Terrible.

Sun Chenghuan silently gave a thumbs up in his heart, but only such a person is qualified to become the leader of tens of billions of human beings, right?

So, the Demon King who is on his par......

No wonder Erin was so disdainful when she heard the puppet talk about demons!

But why are there demons here? And chaos magic? And ......

Sun Chenghuan remembered the knife in his storage ring.

"So, you should be able to understand why there is no time and space magic, especially time magic, in the magic system of the Holy Maiden calendar thousands of years ago, right?"

"May I ask a question?"

"What?"

"Why didn't the magicians activate the time magic again in that case to go back in time to save the Ace continent at that time? ”

"Do you think no one has ever done that?" the Great Sage asked rhetorically, "Do you know the consequences?"

"What?"

"With two Demon Kings. ”

“......”

"You asked in such detail, it seems that there is more than curiosity. The Great Sage also seemed to react a little, "What happened to you that made you so interested in this piece of history?"

"Because...... Anthony Senpai said I had the potential for space-time magic. ”

"Really? That's a shame. The Great Sage sighed, "Back then, the Mage Tower destroyed almost all the information on space-time magic, and even in order to prevent anyone from discovering any words about space-time magic brought over from before on the current Ace Continent, they even created the text we are using now, and abolished the text of the previous continent." ”

“...... That's ......."

Sun Chenghuan's heart chuckled.

That kind of square word?

If it weren't for the fact that the place of trials had the kind of magic that allowed me to understand the meaning without having to read a word, I might not have been able to read these books even if I found them.

It's amazing!

It's just that...... Sun Chenghuan suddenly doubted the source of the forbidden land.

Is it really what it told itself before? Even if it told itself the contents of the book in a different way, why did all the books it took out become the current text?

If it was after the relocation of the Ace Continent to the place where it is now, then what kind of thoughts did the people who left this place behind have in their hearts? Why did they give themselves the magic book and then tell themselves that sentence?

Now it seems that that sentence is a complete piece of advice! It must not be something that the people of the Ace Continent could have said when they were in that place before!

Why is this happening......

Sun Chenghuan's curiosity became heavier and heavier.

"If you want to learn...... I guess I can only learn a little bit of space magic from Master Anthony, and try to see if I can make a storage ring or something. The Great Sage didn't know that Sun Chenghuan's heart was surging, but she still said her own words.

"The production of storage rings also belongs to space magic?" Sun Chenghuan was stunned.

"The storage ring was originally called the Space Ring. The Great Sage smiled and nodded, "Do you say it matters?" However, the storage ring is only a kind of space utensil, and it is said that there used to be space necklaces, space pockets or something...... It can hold not only some dead things, but even living things. Some of the great magicians' spaces are even a small world in them. ”

“...... It's amazing. ”

Sun Chenghuan's eyelids jumped.

"Don't be too ambitious. The Great Sage interrupted Sun Chenghuan's words, "I read the book you gave me, if you can make a storage ring in this era, then you are already very remarkable." ”

“...... I hope I can!"

Sun Chenghuan nodded seriously.

"If it's okay...... You just leave first. Aren't you in a hurry to get to Astrana, there's still some distance from Astrana, right?" the Great Sage seemed to want to be alone.

Sun Chenghuan hurriedly told the Great Sage Maiden that Anthony had found the Mage Tower again, and then used the Mage Tower as a transit point to reach basically every corner of the Ace Continent.

"Are you going to come with me to the Mage Tower for a transit to Astranna? there...... I think it means more to you than this cave. ”

Sun Chenghuan finally asked.

"I'm going to Astrana. The Great Sage nodded, "Not through the Mage Tower, though. The matter of the Holy Maiden Sect, how can it trouble the Mage Tower?"

"Then you ......"

"Like my ancestors, I want to measure every inch of the Ace Continent with my feet. The eyes of the Great Sage shone with determination, "Like my predecessors, little by little, I will spread the glory of the Holy Light." I believe...... My efforts will not be in vain. ”

"Hmm...... But I would like to remind you that your Holy Light magic ......"

"It's fine. The Great Sage smiled, "The Holy Maiden Sect does not rely on force to convince people......

"No, I mean, a lady like you is alone on the continent of Ace...... It can be dangerous. Sun Chenghuan pointed to the Great Sage.

The Great Sage Maiden was stunned for a moment and laughed.

"Little brat, I'm going to be nine hundred years old this year...... These things are not afraid. ”

“......”

Is......

Sun Chenghuan sighed silently, how could he know such a group of old monsters!
