The Legend of Fatality

"If a person wants to change the world, he must first understand the world." When Bai En said these words, it seemed to be memorized. "Blacksmiths must understand everything about metal, and carpenters must understand everything about wood, otherwise their work will be worthless. Basic magic is wild and dangerous because it comes from the other side, and drawing magic from the world below is full of danger. The mage uses knowledge to ease magic, and therefore produces advanced art, but like a blacksmith or carpenter, he should only seek to change what he understands. Each time he learns something, his power increases by one point. Learn everything and understand the whole world. The power of a tree depends on its roots, and knowledge is the source of magic. "

"What is this?" The two dwarves asked at the same time.

"The opening introduction to" Principles of Magic "." Bai En said lightly.

"The person who wrote this book must be an erudite," Borek exclaimed.

"I think so," Bai En replied.

"But neither of us is interested in magic. Although it is indeed magical, but as you said, knowledge is endless. If we want to learn more in a certain area, we have to give up something, don't we?" Bo Lake said with some regret.

Bai En didn't answer, just nodded.

"Okay, then it's my turn," Borrek continued. "Before I say that, Mr. Bai En, do you know the Titans?"

"Of course," Bai En nodded. "It is said to be the first creature in this world."

"Very good, but I'm not talking about those in the Second Era or the Third Era, but the Titans in the First Era, or even earlier, which we call the Sky Titan." Borrek paused and organized Speak the language and continue speaking. "Sky Titan is the oldest race in the world. Before the first elf and dwarf walked upright, Sky Titan chiseled its huge castle into the mountains-the towering boulder castle overlooking the sparkling sea of ​​clouds , Other castles stand on the rocks. "

"Essentially, because of the nature of the sky Titan's isolation, they have long forgotten other races in the world, because they are satisfied with their reclusive kingdom, because of the inaccessibility of the peaks and the cloud cover, they are not blocked by others. People have discovered that the sky Titan rarely falls below the tree line, just to take care of their cave herds and huge mammoths. Only powerful dragons and friends with them, live in harmony in this world until one day despicable The out-of-towners came, and the Sky Titans were convinced by their powerful abilities and profound knowledge. Those out-of-towners claimed to help and enlighten the Sky Titans. Tens of thousands of Titans helped them build a spiritual network all over the world. "

Because the amount of information in the old dwarf's words was too large, Bai Enlen was in place. Warwick almost hit him from behind.

"Aliens?" Bai En asked after calming down.

"Yes, considering the founding war of the first era, I suspect that the foreigners refer to the gods." Borek turned his head and explained seriously.

"This ... this ... this is blasphemy." Warwick stammered.

"Sounds like it's true," Bai En said after thinking for a while, "I have seen the dragon skeleton in the dragon's cave on Fatalin Island, and I have seen a huge skeleton in the southern part of the island, which is the tallest than on the island. The peak of the mountain is even higher, and the spiritual vein network must be a magic node. Dragon, Titan, mammoth, magic vein node, gods. But anyone who knows these things can use these to make up this story, is n’t it? What are cave herds? "

"Yes, all this is amazing, but it's not completely unknown to anyone. The possibility of fabrication is not low. After all, no one can really prove it, but don't we have a lot of guesses about history itself? Those archaeologists Many of us are guessing what has happened based on the current findings. As for the cave beasts, it is said to be the family of horned beasts now. "

"Yes, please continue." Bai En can understand that based on the existing findings, guessing itself is one of the steps to explore the truth of history.

"Where did I say?" Borek recalled and continued. "Oh, yes, the Spirit Vein. It is said that the pyramids on the southern continent and the more distant continents were also built by them, but at this point I highly doubt that from the findings in any book, at least the pyramids on the southern continent It did not exist before the Third Age. "

Bai En nodded and agreed. He remembered that many books wrote that the pyramids were built by ancient humans and used as the sleeping tombs of great emperors.

"Continuing to the previous topic, when all this was completed, the despicable foreigners turned their faces, their servants emerged from the black water, and under the blessing of their servants' magic, they attacked the entire world, and various ancient creatures were Extinct. "

"Servant's magic? Elf?" Bai En asked. "It is said that except for elves, it was the first race to use magic."

"Who knows." Borek just shrugged and said helplessly. "Maybe followers of evil spirits, demons seem to use magic earlier than elves."

That's right, Bai En thought. Nodded and motioned the old dwarf to continue.

"The content about the war is gone, it seems that the Sky Titans are defeated. And the content in other books is different from the story of the joint construction of the Spiritual Vessel Network. The books say that the Titans live alone in their fortress-like mountains, It ’s too lonely to unite under one banner. But the result is the same, the sky Titans returned to the mountains. In the farther mountains, not only the castles of the mountains are getting higher, but also the sky Titans are getting more and more Big."

Borrek took out his pipe and took a sip before continuing. "In this long-lived race, the oldest people grow huge, but during the long years of their lives, Sky Titans became more sedentary until they eventually became like real mountains. Many dwarf scholars I believe that the highest peak they climbed on these ancient Titan lands is not a mountain at all, but the oldest sky Titan that is always sitting on a stone now. "

"And then?" Warwick asked eagerly.

"No more, some dwarf tribes do think they are Titan's creations, the purpose is to maintain the Titan's castle, and some people think that they are descendants of Titan, or a part of the body. But these people are few, almost all are hidden in the world Among the highest mountains in the world. "

"What does this have to do with Black Tower?" Bai En asked suspiciously.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to say. This is a statement of the origin of the Black Tower, and it is said that the Sky Titan built them. The role is to serve as a node of the Spirit Vein. There is also a statement that a certain race is for convenience and the sky. The Titans were built by communication. The legendary Titans, as described, can cross the most majestic mountains in one step. This is the bridge between weak creatures and great Titans. When they stand on the top of the Black Tower, You can look directly at the Titans and hear their words. But the Titans disappeared, it is said that there are only survivors in the world, but no one has really seen them. The giants are said to be descendants of the Titans, but considering their wisdom , It ’s hard to explain at this point. "

"This statement seems to be no different from the Black Tower in order to communicate with the God Realm. Some people think that the Black Tower is related to the gods. It connects the world and the kingdom of the gods. It is the only way for mortals to enter the kingdom of the gods. After the tower lost its original role, it also lost contact with the gods. "Bai En was a little disappointed. He had heard a lot of similar sayings when he was an apprentice in Heita. People ’s imagination is extremely rich, especially Children's. "Beyond that, this does seem to explain why the deities have shown almost no signs for thousands of years."

"Yes, maybe there are people in this world who really know what these black towers were built for, but even if there are, I am afraid that the number is very small, and they seem unwilling to tell others. Almost everything about black towers is speculation. Mostly related to Titans, Gods, and Dragons. "

Borek continued to walk down with Bane and Warwick, and said while walking.

"But we have never encountered a truly intact black tower. The dwarf's northern kingdom has found two ruins, the world's ridge mountain range has found three places, and there is one in the south, but each black tower has only a few wreckage left. . There are even a few foundations that are not reserved deep underground, we ca n’t even find them. ”

Just then, they came to an arch, and Bai En noticed that the torn relief on the arch seemed to be some kind of monster.

Borek said, "As for the other side of the world, it is said that there are black towers that remain intact, but they are under the control of the elves. It is said that on the edge of the world, humans have become elves of the dark elves. We control at least five black towers, but I have no chance to explore. "

Before Borek opened the stone gate, Bai En asked, "Dark elves control the five black towers?"

"From the records in the book, yes. I have some doubts about this, but from the names recorded in the book, it is likely to be true."

"Name? Tower name?"

"Yes, they are the Icy Tower, the Tower of Destruction, the Tower of Despair, the Tower of Prophecy, and the Tower of Killing. It is said that there are also two towers called the Watch Tower and the Forgotten Tower. Unbelievable. And some scholars believe that the author deliberately made seven black towers to deal with seven kinds of evil. "

"Greedy, arrogance, jealousy?" Bai En said with a frown, it didn't sound like the tower name.

"Hah, not that. That ’s what human religion has created. They even said that other races represent these, and they exist only to punish humans. For example, orcs represent anger, trolls and giants represent laziness, dwarves represent greed, and elves represent Arrogance, dark elves substitute for lust, etc. In fact, most humans absolutely can't distinguish between elves and dark elves, even the different dwarves can't tell. "

"What's that? Plague, fear, darkness, killing, conspiracy, pleasure? Those referring to evil gods?" Bai En asked again.

"Who knows," the old dwarf replied with a shrug. "There are so many evils in the world, and people will only choose the ones they think are the most powerful."

Also, Bai En thought. People are more afraid of something, they will put it in the position that they think is more advanced.

"Here is the only thing we found," the old dwarf adjusted the light of the lantern, and then motioned to Warrick to do the same.

Bai En adjusted the light with the two dwarfs, but even the three lanterns still failed to fully reflect the outline of the hall behind the arch.

But it was enough for Bai En to see what was there, a huge hall, and the walls were full of cracks that Bai An couldn't help worrying about. In addition, there was only a black lacquered hole in the corner, and there was a huge statue on the wall directly opposite Bai En, and now only the part below the knee of the statue was left.

"What's over there?" Bai En asked, pointing at the darkened hole.

"There leads to the old coal mine, which is also our planned evacuation channel." The old dwarf explained.

Bai En nodded and walked forward until he was in front of the rest of the statue. The collapsed part of this statue is not here. From the remaining part, it is difficult to imagine how the collapsed part left here.

"Isn't the collapsed part here?" Bai En turned to ask the old dwarf.

"No, we were not there when we first discovered it. Except that the passage to the old coal mine is new, everything is the same." The old dwarf shook his head and said.

Bane turned his gaze from the new back to the rest of the statue ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Even at Bane's height, he could only see the instep of the statue, indicating that the once existing statue was quite magnificent.

But what disturbed Bai En was that the remaining leg part of the statue was not human or dwarf, or any race he knew. Those calves have a structure that is different from ordinary people, not just rough toes with claws, thick and powerful calves that seem to have some scales and lesions. But the whole gives a very strange sense of violation.

Bai En took out a drawing pen, which was not his original tool for drawing a spell, but it was barely enough to cast spells. He spent some time drawing a magic circle on the ground, then took out the sacrificial knife, cut his finger, wrote a few magic runes with his own learning in key parts, and then inserted two sacrificial knives in the core of the magic circle position. Then he took out a bottle of potion, poured it between two sacrificial knives, and finally began to recite the mantra.

When the spell was over, Bai En fell to his knees, holding the sacrificial knife in both hands, feeling the magic power. But there was nothing. He couldn't feel anything but the magic of his own spell. It seems that this is just a space where nothing exists.

"What did you find?" Warwick asked curiously as Baine stood up.

"There's nothing here," Bai En murmured.

"Yeah, yes." Warwick looked around and said at a loss. He failed to understand what Bai En wanted to say.

"I mean, there is no magic at all." Bai En turned his head and explained to the two dwarves. "Because of the existence of magical veins and nodes, there should be no pure demon-free areas in the world. But here," Bai En pointed to the ground. "There is nothing under this black tower, as if someone has drained the magic veins around this tower."
