Chapter 416: Netherel is dead
"Who is your master?"
Townsend asked.
"I can't tell you." Seeing that Tang Sen was about to swing his sword again, the figure named Rhubarb hurriedly emphasized: "This really can't be!" β
"Okay." Townsend didn't force it, and continued to ask: "Whoever he is, thousands of years have passed now, and this place has been abandoned-"
"No, my master will be back." Great ecliptic.
Tang Sen raised his eyebrows: "That's why you've been maintaining this mage tower and this half-plane?" β
"This is the duty that was given to me when my master left." Big Yellow paused: "But this doesn't mean that I will be threatened by you, everything in the Mage Tower belongs to the master, the intruder, you must leave!" β
"Your master won't be coming back." Tang Sen said calmly.
"It's none of your business." Rhubarb responded quickly.
Tang Sen ignored him, and just said, "Netherel is gone, all the Grand Arcanists are gone, even the epochs have changed, this half-plane will soon fall into the void, and all this you are guarding has no meaning. β
"Netherilβ" Rhubarb repeated the noun, and his tone that had been unwavering was rare and dull, "Dead?" β
"Looks like you don't know." Tang Sen nodded: "However, it doesn't matter-"
"It's important!" Rhubarb interrupted Townsend, "I need to confirm this news. I don't think Ferrin Demon Aoi will be able to destroy Netheril. β
Tang Sen's heart moved, and his eyes narrowed.
He'd heard of the Creature Felin Demon Sunflower, and Nethrel had been worried about it for a while, but that was before Nethriel's destruction.
So he turned his head to look at Trixi: "It seems that our friend has not heard from the outside world for a long time, why don't you explain it to him." β
Tricy understood and said, "3520. I'm talking about the Almanac of Netheril, the year in which the great Arcanist Iolim disappeared and the whole of Netharel was thrown into a panic. β
"My master left the Mage's Tower in search of the great Iolem." Rhubarb interjected, "It's not going to be easy, but he's going to succeed, and he's commanding me to guard his knowledge and possessions." β
"It seems that your master has a close relationship with the Grand Arcanist Iorim." Townsend Road.
Rhubarb was silent for a moment, probably because it was rare to get news from the outside world, or for some other reason, he finally revealed something: "My master is a disciple of the great Eorim. β
Tang Sen was stunned.
No wonder, there will be news about Ioram's immortality here.
He didn't know exactly what the spell was, but what he knew for sure was that it must have been created by Iolem and had something to do with the means of immortality - during Netheril's time, all the Grand Arcanists had a near-infinite life to study magic, and they didn't transform into lichs.
On the contrary, after the fall of Netheril, spellcasters wanted to live forever, and the Lich was the most common method.
Trish looked at Townsend and saw that he didn't continue to ask, so she continued, "Obviously, the threat of Felim Demon Aoem, coupled with the disappearance of Iolem, has brought the situation in the whole of Nethrel to the brink of mutiny. β
"And at this moment, another Grand Arcanist, Karthas, felt an incomparably heavy burden on his shoulders, and that was Netheril's future."
"Karthas, my host mentioned the name. The new floating city he had built attracted the attention of many, and he had praised Karthas as perhaps the most gifted Grand Arcanist since Iolum. "The Great Ecliptic.
"That's right, that's what history says." Trish enjoys the feeling of telling stories to others, especially when the subject is an inhuman being. It was almost like an adventure story she had ever seen.
She continued: "Karthhas decided to fight hard to revive the country from peril, so she created a spell after years of study. β
"A twelve-ring spell like no other."
"It can't be!" Rhubarb immediately retorted: "The limit of the spell is eleven rings!" That is already a power close to the gods, and the twelve rings are already gods. β
"That's right." Trichy didn't refute, but said approvingly: "My teacher thinks the same way, but Calthus did succeed, and that spell does belong to the realm of gods. β
"The name of that spell is - the incarnation of Kartha."
Trihy's face was full of yearning: "This spell can temporarily steal the power of a god, and Karthhas chose the goddess of magic, Misriel, so the divine power poured in from all directions, his mind was full of incredible knowledge, but at that moment, he also realized what a terrible thing he had done. β
"Mithriel's duty requires her to use her powers to regulate and repair the web, as it is often damaged by the misuse of magic by Netherel's archarcanists, and when Mysriel loses the ability to keep the web stable, the magical energy is flooded, and they rise and fall in a chaotic manner."
Rhubarb listened to all this quietly and did not interject as before.
Trish continued, "In order to protect the net, Mithriel sacrificed herself before the situation could get out of hand, so that she could sever the connection with Karthas and close the net. β
Trish took a deep breath, "So, the magic disappeared for a short time. β
"Without the power of magic, Netheril's floating cities fell, and Karthhas was quickly engulfed in death and fell to the earth."
"Although the goddess of magic was soon reborn and re-established the order of the magic web, everything is irreparable, and the glory of the Netherel Empire, which stands in the sky, has been destroyed, and in order to avoid such a tragedy again, the goddess of magic has imposed some restrictions on the magic web."
"Most of the Ten Rings spells, and all spells above the Ten Rings, are no longer allowed to be used, including all spells created by the Grand Arcanists of Netharrell."
"It turns out . That's right. Rhubarb spoke slowly, "No wonder most of the defenses that the master has placed in the mage tower have failed, so much so that even a lich has the ability to invade the mage tower." β
"Lich?"
Townsend grabbed the key word: "Are you talking about the intruder before?" Who is he? β
Rhubarb didn't answer the question, he turned to Townsend with his featureless face and said, "I'm grateful for bringing the news about Netheril. Perhaps, the host really won't come back. β
"The master's legacy needs to be inherited."
