"I said we'd meet again, Master Siegel. The green dragon saw William walk away, then picked up a slice of grilled tuna, sniffed it under his nose, and put it back - and turned it over. He moves cautiously, as if he were holding some treasure.

"Is your mission accomplished?" Siegel asked, "Do you want me to repay you for helping me kill the Red Dragon?"

The green dragon did not answer the question. He looked Siegel up and down, then nodded. "I'm not as free as you, you don't have any shackles or chains on you to make decisions about your own destiny. I also have a master, and I need to serve his will and goals. ”

"Dragon-binding spell?" Siegel used his psychic vision, but he couldn't see anything.

"Don't look at it, it's already broken. The green dragon smiled softly. "To put it officially, my name is Alenoz Eagles, of course, this is also an abbreviation, the full name is so long that sometimes I forget it. The host I serve is a dice holder, just like you. I'm guessing you're holding the twenty-sided one, because I've met the twelve-faced one before, and the hundred-faced one is Evan of the Starry Kingdom. If what I'm saying is correct, please keep listening. ”

Siegel was on guard when he lifted the twenty-sided dice, the elemental power pooling in his body, and the spells he brewed were too much for even a dragon to bear. The golden dragon was the first to sense, glanced this way, and then followed the dwarf king into the interior of the unsinkable stone boat. William paused his chewing movements and looked over from a distance. Still with a harmless smile on his face, the green dragon said to Siegel, "Your secret is also my master's secret. It's safe with me. ”

The mage thought for a moment. Then he put away his magic: "Say it." It's best not to use riddles. ”

"Okay. To his surprise, the Green Dragon easily agreed to the request. "I can't mention the master's name, because it will be detected by prophecy spells, and I hope you will understand. He has ten dice, and is one of the only four remaining dice in the world. You should thank him for his efforts to keep your life out of control. ”

"I don't understand, just explain. Siegel raised his hand and prepared to cast the spell.

"Don't worry about protective spells. The winds around here will blow away our words, and magic will only help our enemies. The green dragon stopped him, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Where do you start? Let me think about ......."

"Let's start with the Wall of Storms, it's all about it. The green dragon coughed twice, as if to clear his throat. But there was always a muddled voice in his throat. "I don't know if you know, the so-called wall of storms is a precursor to the demise of a crystal wall. The world is small, with only one planet, a conceptual star, even smaller than some half-planes. Such a small crystal wall is usually short-lived. They will eventually be consumed by the inward-destroying forces of the Rules. The rules that were born during its lifetime will remerge, and new crystals will be born in the form of an explosion. If only there were more rules. Then this time the crystal wall will be stronger and more stable than the last time, this is the process of world evolution, although cruel, but it can ensure that the material world is endless. ”

"If you encounter destruction, you can only blame bad luck. Since the power of destruction is the sum of the rules of a world, there is no escape for people in this world. Even if they discover the new rules of the world, they will immediately be taught by the forces of destruction: an individual cannot defeat the whole of that individual, a simple truth. Many beings try to block this process, wanting to learn the secrets of the birth and destruction of the world, and to grasp the ultimate power of the cosmic cycle of growth. But even if a god is caught up in the Storm of Destruction, the rules and powers he represents will be copied and learned, and all of them will be buried together. ”

"It is said that there is only one kind of god who can influence this process, and that is the creator god of the world. They are so powerful that they can create a world with just one thought and one hand. They will take advantage of the birth of a new crystal wall, project their own ideas into it, add rules to the rules, and shape the results they want. Until one day, a creator god died unexpectedly - he was killed by himself, absolutely an accident that no one could have imagined. Before he died, he turned his power into something and threw it into this world. ”

"As you can already imagine, those items are dice, and there are seven types of them, corresponding to seven qualities. This is a crystal wall that has been surrounded by a storm of destruction, and the power of the gods has long been cut off, and it is impossible for anything in it, even the souls that should belong to the gods, to leave. But the power of the creator god is the opposite of destruction, and one of the dice, the ten-sided dice of my master, is the first to awaken. His power is balance and blocking, and he blocks the advance of the wall of storms, leaving only one continent left in this world to survive. ”

"Why aren't there any records of other continents?" said Siegel, "The Wall of Storms is only thirteen thousand years old, and I believe that that time is not long enough to erase history." Even if neither the elves nor the dragons survived, what about the lichs? mighty undead creatures are not affected by the passage of time at all!"

"The Wall of Doom isn't that simple, it's not a wall of fire or a lightning storm, it's the rule. When it devours a continent, all the rules related to that continent are absorbed, and no information will be left, so no one will remember it. It's all minutiae, let me go on. The green dragon rubbed his chest, then twisted his shoulders, and the muscles and bones in his body rattled. "The stopped storm of destruction caught everyone's attention, or rather, all the gods. In the process, the first person to be found was my master. Fortunately, his role is to stop the advance of the wall of storms, and if he is disturbed, the world will still be destroyed, and the secrets of the remaining dice will be covered up forever. So all the gods came to an agreement not to interfere with the operation of the world, not to affect the actions of the dice holder, and to share the secrets of the birth and destruction of the world if they learned it. ”

The green dragon raised his head and looked into the distance. Unfortunately, the Unsinkable Stoneboat is located in the ocean between the two continents, the farthest from the Wall of Storms. It's impossible to see the spectacle of lightning destroying everything here. Nor can I feel the majesty of a thin layer of rule power to stop the destruction of the world. Few of the world's billionaires can feel the crisis. They don't know how lucky they are. I don't know my own misfortune either.

"Unfortunately, not all parties to the agreement can really abide by it, and some people are tempted. The god of magic and knowledge had the greatest thirst for secrets, so strong that he could give up the power of the Godhead and the priesthood. He burned all his power, forcibly modified reality, and then incarnated as a mortal and began to touch the power of the dice. ”

"It's impossible to know exactly what he's changed, and it's as if the information has been absorbed by the Storm of Destruction. Never anymore. He found the biggest dice, the hundred-faced dice, which at that time had no will. So the Star Kingdom and the School City were closely connected, and the power of the hundred-faced dice was used to strengthen the national fortune, which was also one of his experiments. ”

After completing the first step of his plan, he began to try to find other dice. There is only one way to break this deadlock, and my master has made that choice. The power of the magic god is limited, and he can barely cover a certain area, that is, a continent. As long as the range of the Wall of Storms increases, then there will be a hole in his power. It's like a balloon that has been burst. ”

It turns out that the Wall of Storms recedes and the New World is discovered. Siegel thought of the "refuge" beneath the Lake of Tears, and asked, "The world that was absorbed into it, the countless people who were destroyed, just to break through the cover of knowledge and magic God......'s power?"

The green dragon looked at Siegel with surprise and suddenly laughed. "The possibilities, the possibilities are really infinite!" he said excitedly, stopping suddenly, blood spilling from the corners of his mouth.

"Are you alright? Do you need a healing potion?" said Siegel quickly.

The green dragon waved his hand and wiped the corners of his mouth with his hand: "I'm a much better pharmacist than you, have you forgotten? I know that the healing potion for my wound is no longer effective, so don't worry about it. I remember when we first met, I was preparing potions. I smelled the dice at that point, but then the smell suddenly disappeared, and I wasn't sure, but eventually I decided to take a gamble and help you deal with the red dragon. ”

"Thank you. Siegel said sincerely.

"After the four-sided and eight-sided dice awakened, they helped my master complete the plan for the expansion of the wall of storms, but were killed by the presence of another world. Even the six-sided dice were destroyed before they could awaken. The enemy gradually approached, and even found the power of suppression from the dice on all sides, making a terrible weapon. So the host had to start the plan in advance, too late to wait for everything to be perfect. Therefore, when the New World finally came into being, it also left behind many shadows of the old world, that is, the shadows of the dead. Fortunately, they can only survive near the Storm Wall in the northern part of the New World, and only there is their last refuge. ”

The plan worked, and a loophole appeared in the spell shrouded by the magic god. Soon after, Nakuth and Knox arrived, and the spells of the magic god were no longer a secret, and new mind control spells were learned by Knox together. A large number of creatures are heading for the New World, and more and more fates are freed from surveillance. The dice are finally safely stored. The master avoided the sight of the gods and threw the last two dice. Twenty-faced came to his own consciousness and fell into the deepest part of the ocean. The twelve-sided dice successfully reached the New World. Many, many years later, you are the dice that fell into the ocean. You're not human, Siegel, you're you. ”

"Beware of the one who will prophesy: Liele of the Mage Guild. Don't let him find out that you have dice, otherwise it's hard to tell what will happen, and even the owner can't guess it. But I can't spot the smell of dice on you right now, and I'm sure Riele can't either. However, the master had said that there was something in the assimilated world that could locate the dice, and he had never dared to look for it, for fear of attracting the attention of the prophet. ”

"I found it, and it's in my hand right now. Siegel said to the green dragon, "Where is your master, I would love to meet him." ”

"Put it away, hide it. As for my master, you will meet him, I promise. "The green dragon took a piece of tuna meat from the grill at great speed, put it under his nose and sniffed it, then took a big bite. "It's so delicious, but unfortunately I can't eat it anymore. ”

After saying that, the corners of his mouth began to bleed, and with fragments of fish flesh, they flowed down his chin, and he couldn't stop it. His body jerked and he collapsed into Siegel's arms. The powerful body that once fought against the red dragon is now unable to even stand on its feet.

"The way to find my master is engraved on my skull, and it will only be visible when I die. And there's a space bag in my heart, and you take it with you. Tell him that I have found the owner of the twelve-sided dice, and the absolute power of destruction is really powerful, destroying my body and vitality, and also breaking the dragon binding spell. But even without the Dragonbinding Charm, I pledged my allegiance to him to the end. Tell him that I don't blame him for catching me with a spell and that I forgive him. ”

"I thought the twelve-sided dice were Kerry, the guy who could wield the power of absolute ice, but unfortunately I was wrong. Tell Kerry that I could have saved his brother, but I didn't. I let the undead murder him, thinking that I would stir up his power. I am sorry for him and beg him for forgiveness. And many, many more, dragons, griffins, gray ghosts......"

He said, his body collapsing. Like broken porcelain, his skin crept all over with cracks, then fell off his trunk one by one, then his muscles, internal organs, and bones, all fragmented, fell to the ground and vanished.

"Tell me who the twelve-sided dice are, and I'll avenge you!" Siegel said quickly.

"There is no hatred, it's just that there are different opinions and inferior strength. The green dragon said, "She is married to your lord, and she lives in the starting fortress, so I think you will know who she is." ”

"Nata?" said Siegel.

The green dragon nodded, "Be careful of Liele, but also be careful of the other gods. Each god has its own mind, elves, dwarves, goblins, and so on...... Look carefully at the markings on my skull before I collapse, maybe this is the only chance. Siegel, tell him, don't live so tired...... I'd love to eat more tuna!"

The green dragon eventually vanished, not even a single scale remained. (To be continued.) )
