Listening to the narration of the Great Prophet, Penny was shocked.

He had heard the prophecy of the cataclysm countless times, and although the Black Robe of Hylast had mentioned it in his ears many times, most of the time, Penny had not taken it to heart.

Because Penny was weak at that time, he was very self-aware, and he thought that it was impossible to play any role in this kind of major event that stirred up changes in the world, and the cataclysm was not the end of the world, and the drift of the earth's crust caused a few earthquakes, and it couldn't hurt him, a flying division, at most, he dragged his family and hid in the other world, and a few gods didn't let him die, what did it have to do with him?

What's more, he was in trouble most of the time at that time, how could he take care of this prophecy that seemed to be a bit of a god?

It is well known that prophecies are mostly unreliable.

Until now, he only knew that this catastrophe was about to bring down the gods and collapse the continent.

But if things come to an instant and he is caught off guard, things are a little serious.

What's more, with the matter of Sazastan, the situation is even more complicated.

His expression became serious, no longer the ethereal look, but the two muddy paw prints on his face made him look a little funny.

Penny knew that the Great Prophet would answer his questions and tell him the truth about this 'cataclysm'.

"Little wizard, what do you think is the point of the existence of the 'magic web'?" the Great Prophet waved his hand, and an oven with a kettle and bread stand was teleported to several people.

Although he didn't know why the Great Prophet asked this question, which didn't seem to fit the topic, Penny still gave the answer very seriously after thinking about it, because he believed that the answer he wanted was in this answer: "From the perspective of being unfavorable to high-level mages, it limits the output of the power of the source sea, even if it is a legendary spell, it is difficult to exert its ultimate power under such shackles, but on the contrary, it also maintains the balance of power in Toriel, and does not allow too powerful spells to cause great disasters." ”

As he spoke, Penny remembered Karthas. The more he understood the arcane arts, the more Penny understood what kind of crazy path Karthas had embarked on.

After all, human thinking is limited, and the methodology constructed by wizards must also have its limits. It is true that a legendary mage can deduce the changes in the world in their minds, but they are definitely unable to keep every detail of the world in their minds, and the area that their minds can cover can only be a small part......

Karthhas intends to use his own methodology to control the godhead of the goddess of magic, and he will not be allowed by divine power, even at the moment when the spell takes effect, Karthhas does release an incomparably powerful power.

All in all. Even the Arcanists, who disagreed with the Goddess of Magic and believed that the web constrained wizards, did not think that Karthas was clever in that way.

Well, the twelfth level of legendary arcane, he may be great.

A great madman.

"And compared to the arcane environment of the two ancient empires, the magic net greatly reduces the cost and difficulty of wizards to cast spells, and also invisibly lowers the threshold for humans to become wizards, to be honest. Although the current mages are much rarer than in the ancient imperial era, the overall number is still quite ......," Penny said, "Of course, from the opposite side. This also slowed down or even stagnated the development of arcane theory after the ancient imperial era, in short...... It's hard to tell if the existence of a magic web has advantages and disadvantages for wizards. ”

A pertinent answer. The Great Prophet nodded: "So, if the demon net is destroyed, what will be the consequences?"

"The web is destroyed?" Penny frowned and thought, "So...... For wizards, all spell casting methods are extremely dependent on the magic web, which means that wizards who are not perfect in arcane skills will suffer great mental damage, and in severe cases, they may die...... For the world, because the magic net covers a part of the energy of the source sea, once the magic net disappears. An instantaneous torrent of source power will cause violent turmoil in Torreel...... Is this what the Cataclysm means?"...,

Penny came to his senses early and looked shocked: "This ...... Unless Mistra is ...... ......"

He wanted to continue, but after coming to his senses, he was silent, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Someone wants to repeat what Karthas did?"

"It's not a man, it's a god. The Great Prophet said lightly, "Boy." This time it's not as simple as an incarnation spell, there is a god who wants to move the real character. ”

Penny's heart was surging, and he suddenly remembered some of the things he had experienced during the two years he lived in West Feron, and many deeds were connected together, which made his mind shine: "Is it Shar?"

The corpse of Kelburn's black rod, the fragments of ancient evils, the elect who wield psionic powers, and the strange actions of the Ghost City.

"Quite right. The Great Prophet nodded.

The wizard's face was cloudy for a while, and he scooped down the kettle and stone bowl on the stove next to him, poured a bowl of water and drank it slowly.

Now he knew what this cataclysm meant, a human, a legendary mage, it was extremely difficult to kill a god, and the fate of Karthas had shown the beings of Torrell the results of the powerful godhead of usurping the integrity of the divine power with violence......

But if one god wants to kill another......

This is a serious matter.

"Little wizard, you see, these two things are not unrelated. The Great Prophet smiled: "Sazastan wants to release the Ancient Evil, but a part of the Ancient Evil is under the control of Shar, then we can judge that the Netherworld City is the real center of all the events that follow...... Also, there's one more thing that's important to you. ”

He dug around his waist and pulled out a small box entangled in several seals with shiny runes painted on the surface.

Penny took it, and opened the box at the signal of the Great Prophet's eyes, and inside was a piece of yellow crystal, and needless to say, he knew what it was.

"Isil Aaron's key?" Penny said in a confused tone.

"Yes, it's Isil Aaron's key...... Little wizard, I don't know if you have ever thought about the success rate of Sazastan's plan?"

Penny shook his head, he only knew that he would not be a match for Sazastan.

Before entering the legendary realm, Penny understood that legendary mages are also strong and weak, for example, Sazastan's arcane attainments are far stronger than any other chief, this is a fact recognized by all of Sergeus and even the whole of Faeron, obviously, such as Sazastan and Helast. The arcane level of Ilminster, as well as the mysterious Great Prophet in front of him, are all upper-level figures among legendary mages.

And after being exposed to the true Legendary Way, Penny's distinction between the strength and weakness of legendary mages became clearer: how powerful a legendary mage can be in the arcane. Depends on the mage's mind power.

There is also a world in the mind, and the thinking power of the legendary mage determines how much magic power the caster can convert from this world, as well as the laws that can be controlled, this measure can be called the mind domain.

A newcomer to a legend like Penny, even if his mind has been transformed into an extraordinary person, his mind domain is only one-third the size of the great prophet in front of him, and it is believed that the arcane level of Sazastan and the great prophet in front of him is not far apart. Coupled with the power of the ancient evil creatures that he possessed after the fall, Penny was far from being an opponent, and if he encountered it, he would be lucky to be able to escape with his whole body.

"Does Sazastan have any weaknesses, then?" asked the Great Prophet again.

"Yes, he was not firm enough, or rather, he was not firm enough about this plan. I have my own confusion. Penny nodded, he was sure of that.

If Sazastan really decides to carry out this plan, or will be completely corrupted by the ancient evil. Then on that day, he wouldn't have talked so much with Penny, and he was still distracted by Penny's gambling scolding. ...,

It can be seen from this that Sazastan's will is not completely bewitched by the ancient evils, at least there is still confusion.

But what's the use?

Penny secretly thought, this flaw is not always able to be used, not to mention that it has been used once, and when it is used again, won't Sazastan be on guard?

He thought again of every scene he had ever had with Sazastan, such a proud wizard. Will you be willing to be at the mercy of the ancients, or will you have no doubts about such plans?

"Not necessarily...... Hehe, the flaws in the soul of the legendary mage are often very stubborn and fatal......" The Great Prophet smiled, and his expression suddenly became serious: "But you have to think about it, if Sazastan finally completes his plan, or is close to completing it, then how can you stop him?"

"Run. Penny didn't hesitate.

The Great Prophet nodded. It doesn't seem surprising: "Well, you actually have a choice." ”

"You mean the Key to Isil Aaron?" Penny raised an eyebrow, "yes, Sazastan seems to be looking for it too." ”

"That's right, it's incredible. The Great Prophet took a sip of tea: "It is not a problem to knock down an ancient evil thing. ”

Penny's heart pounded, "What the hell is it?"

Although he still does not know the identity of the Great Prophet, some of his past confusions have been revealed layer by layer in the mouth of this prophet, which makes him continue to ask questions, and he is eager to solve all problems in his heart.

"What is it?" the Great Prophet raised his head and looked at the sky, his expression suddenly became a little trance-like: "...... What is it?...... It was created over thousands of years by the Arcane Lords of the Empire...... Ancient Evil. ”

Penny was greatly taken aback: "Creation...... Ancient Evil?"

"Do you know the definition of an ancient evil?"

"The evil beings left before the creation of the world...... Penny thought for a moment, "some are gods who are rejected by the rules - such as Atropos, some are otherworldly creatures that are seriously harmful to the laws of the world - such as Pendrum and the Mother of Monsters, some are the irreducible negative components left behind at the creation of the world - such as Leviathan, and some defeated ancient powerful monsters or fallen gods, such as the Lord of Worms and the buried father of Bato Zargon......"

"I know a lot, to sum up, ancient evil things are some things that have the power of gods that are not gods, of course, this definition is not accurate, but it is enough. The Great Prophet shrugged, "Once it appears, it will be devastating to Torreel...... Of course, it could be something else, like our purpose back then. ”

"For what purpose?"

Panny was curious to hear about the great ambitions of the ancient empire.

"Let the Imasca Empire become the Torel Empire. The Great Prophet said in a flat tone.

The wizard's heart thumped.

This is truly extraordinary.

No wonder Io wanted to destroy them, not wronged at all.

“...... So, do you really want to release it?" Penny had a not-so-good feeling.

"Absolutely. A metallic voice came from behind the wizard, and Fina turned her head to see a tall man approaching.

The warrior-like metal armor made the man's every step make a heavy metal crash, and Fina saw the half-covered swarthy armor, and a horror rose from the bottom of her heart that made her shrink into the wizard's arms.
