Chapter 526: Winning Trust (10,000-word chapter, please subscribe)

The deep underground of Ashcatla Mage Tower is like a labyrinth of intricate tunnels and cities.

Zuo Sizheng carefully inspected the dragon eggs that had just been delivered to him, feeling the little lives inside that were completely eroded by the power of hell. After several minutes, he commented with interest: "The state of these eggs is very interesting, much stranger than I imagined. I have to say that Sammaster and the Dragon Worship Cult he founded do have something."

"These dragon eggs can be Hatching?"

Culremus, who was still in human form, asked cautiously.

Although he was causing trouble in the Northland and the Kingdom of Cormyr, this "filial son" was fearless, and his ambitions and desires were growing at an unimaginable speed.

Even the chosen ones of the Goddess of Magic like Elminster and Storm Silverhand don't take it seriously.

But at this moment, he acted extremely humble and cautious, without any arrogance or arrogance at all. He was completely different from usual people.

Occasionally there is a hint of fear in his eyes.

“Theoretically it’s not possible.

Because your blasphemous behavior of forced mating and the filthy and evil magical rituals of the Dragon Worship Cult have tarnished the originally kind blood nature of the metal dragon, causing the dragon's original soul to be unable to be conceived normally.

In addition, these dragon eggs are all cursed without exception, and it is most likely a curse from the Dragon God.

I think you should know what this means.

But fortunately, I have two teams that are working on projects to create new dragon species, and they have made pretty good progress now.

So I have a way to reverse their bloodline and inject the bloodline of purgatory, evil color dragon or other giant dragons from other worlds to help them complete their transformation and rebirth.

If they are lucky, they can turn these blasphemous, filthy, evil, and cursed powers into part of their talents.

In other words, these descendants of yours will form a brand new subspecies of dragon.

Their nature is cruel, vicious, bloodthirsty, and cunning, but they are also extremely smart and insidious.

The camp will generally appear to be the same neutral evil as you. "

Zuo Si raised the corner of his mouth slightly and explained meaningfully.

The brother and sister Bahamut, the good dragon god, and Tiamat, the evil dragon goddess, have been encouraging believers to slaughter similar dragons from opposing camps for a long time, causing the dragons to kill each other. Lost hegemony over the entire world.

Nowadays, the dragons on the continent of Faerûn are all sophisticated and are not willing to hand over their faith to them at all.

Especially metal dragons from the good camp often have many other choices.

For example, the dragon god Tamara, known as the "Lady of Mercy", Hel the Joker, and Landis the Scale of Justice.

The first two are both good camps, one tends to be neutral and good, and the other tends to be chaotic and good.

The latter is lawful neutral, covering all lawful alignments including lawful good.

Evil chromatic dragons can believe in Carix, the "Destroyer of All Things", and Estelabo, the "Lord of Treasures".

Neutral dragons can also believe in the "Observer" Chronippus, the "Nine-Faced Dragon God" Io, and the "Gem Dragon God" Sadivo, which covers all camps.

The Dragon Lich can regard Farazul, who has the priesthood of "Undead", "Corruption" and "Blight", as an object of worship.

So Zuo Si feels that the curse on these dragon eggs may not have much to do with Bahamut, but the actions of other good camp dragon gods.

Otherwise, with the evil-hating character of the Platinum Dragon God, after sensing what the "filial son" has done, there is a high probability that he will directly descend into the avatar or send the most powerful envoys and electors to kill him.

It will never be as "lightly" as simply placing a curse on these dragon eggs.

"A curse from the dragon god? You mean...what I did to that silver dragon was seen by a certain dragon god?"

Kullei Moss's face changed slightly.

Since he is far smarter than Wilmes, he obviously knows what it means to be targeted by a dragon god.

"Why, are you afraid now?"

Zuo Si raised his head and glanced at the other party with a half-smile.

Culremus quickly shook his head: "No, of course not afraid.

Because there are only two dragon gods who are truly capable of coming to incarnate in Toril, and they have formed a mutual bond.

As for the so-called voters and believers of the other party, I don't pay attention at all.

I'm just a little curious about which dragon god the silver dragon that is about to be transformed into a dracolich believes in.

In addition, the hatching and growth of these dragon eggs are left to you.

Only you can make them hatch and gain great power in a short time.

You don’t need much, just give me a son and a daughter when the time comes.

I will use them to deal with Castellan Ferrian and the dragon paladins from the [Paws of Justice] organization around her. ”

Zuo Sisi nodded slightly without thinking: "No problem, I can satisfy your trivial request.

But before that, I want to ask, what is the so-called revenge and revenge in your mouth? What is the purpose?

To save the lost face?

Or to vent the anger in your heart in anger?

Or to prove that you are no longer the person you are? That young boy who was easily seduced by beauty?

If it were just these ridiculous reasons, then you would have disappointed me too much.

After all, I have emphasized more than once that evil, cruelty and killing are always just means and not ends.

If you want to pursue the ultimate evil, then get rid of all meaningless emotions first and raise it to the level of philosophy, thoughts and values.

Remember, my dear servant, there is no evil in this world or even the universe that can be praised by people that will be born out of anger and impulse.

That can only be called depravity at best, not evil in the true sense. ”

Kurremos took a deep breath, bent down and bowed deeply: "I...understand what you mean.

Please rest assured that I can control my emotions and try my best to Act under the control of calmness and reason.

And I promise that there will never be any accidents in this once-in-a-lifetime plan due to personal grudges.

About this time against Harper and Scar. Do you have anything else to give regarding Klaus's actions? "

"No special instructions, just go ahead and do it. In order to prevent some self-righteous old guys from coming out to disrupt the situation, I will give it to you. Send two powerful enough helpers.”

With that said, Zuo Si raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

Pop!

With a crisp sound reverberating in the air, the two portals opened instantly.

Following this, a Sarran spirit whose whole body was made entirely of black primitive magical energy walked out of the portal on the right. One of its hands was dragging a one-and-a-half-meter-diameter magic weapon that was constantly spreading around. An ink-colored sphere filled with terrifying magic and shadow energy.

What came out of the door on the left was a very weird-looking elf.

The moment the elf appeared, all the surrounding energy began to converge on his body, and even formed a small magic vortex due to the rapid absorption speed.

Gudong!

Kulremos swallowed subconsciously.

As a mage and warlock, and the spellcasting levels of both professions have reached above legendary, and he has also obtained the advanced Infernal Brass Dragon of Arcane Follower, he almost instantly became I felt the terrifying magical power possessed by the two of them.

The former is like being integrated with the Shadow Magic Network, possessing inexhaustible energy.

The latter is like a black hole that continuously absorbs all the energy around it. Even the legendary mage will be sucked dry by it in a very short time.

You don’t need to know that these two are none other than Zuo Si’s new followers who were separated from the [Shadow Energy Core].

The Sarran spirit is Agatha, the great arcanist of the Netheril era, and is also the current controller of the [Shadow Energy Core];

The elf is Felin The leader of the Demon Sunflowers - Varis.

Since neither of these guys need to pass through the magic network controlled by the goddess of magic to cast spells, they can ignore to a certain extent the huge advantage that silver fire may bring to the battle between spellcasters.

"They are..."

Facing these two "monsters" who suddenly appeared out of thin air, Kurremos only felt his scalp numb and all the muscles and nerves in his body tense.

Although he had been overestimating the power Zuo Si had in his heart, he still felt awe and fear when he saw the latter summoning such two men effortlessly.

Because Culremos has no idea how many cards this master who controls his own life, death and even his soul has yet to reveal.

Zuo Si shrugged nonchalantly and replied: "You don't need to know their names, you just need to know that they will follow you and come forward to deal with some troublesome people when you need it. Just the enemy.”

"Understood. Thank you for your generous support."

Seeing that he could not get any useful information from the question, Culremos could only give up and quickly used group teleportation magic to bring Agatha and Varis back. established their own temporary base.

With these two powerful helpers, he now felt that even if Sammaster, the founder of the Dragon Worship Cult, came to attack him afterwards and ask for punishment, he would only end up running away in despair with his tail between his legs.

Watching the "brother of filial piety" leave completely, Davian, the flame dragon knight who stood aside silently for a long time, finally couldn't help but asked: "Master, why don't you let me go? With my current strength , it is completely possible for one person to suppress the entire audience. ”

“Because it is not necessary.

Don’t forget, we are positive people and we need to maintain our own image and try to avoid getting involved in things that may lead to negative public opinion.

It is better to leave such dirty work to others.

There are some things you can do, but you absolutely cannot do it yourself. Instead, you need someone to do it for you.

This is also the reason why I formed Black Gloves.

Due to the current chaotic situation in the entire Faerûn continent, you should keep an eye on the Sons of Baal in the Marching Mountains for the time being.

As long as they don't invade cities and villages, it doesn't matter how they make trouble.

Once someone crosses the line, you immediately launch a warning attack against them. ”

Zuo Si gave the order to the follower who had been following him for the longest time.

Davian said nothing nonsense, nodded slightly, and then used teleportation magic to disappear.
 Since the Marching Mountains are the source of two large rivers in Kalingshan and have extremely convenient river transportation, he understands how difficult it is to keep track of these increasingly powerful sons of gods

If they were accidentally allowed to invade important riverside or coastal port towns in the south and cause chaos and killings, it would definitely be a huge blow to the West Coast Empire, which was undergoing large-scale infrastructure construction and rapid economic development.

After all, social security is directly related to the stability of a country and must not be taken lightly at any time.

Otherwise, the thieves guilds that were finally eliminated will soon spring up one after another like mushrooms after a rain.

After sending Davian away, Zuo Si immediately began to use the technology at his disposal to carry out a series of genetic and magical transformations on the dragon eggs in front of him.

After doing all this, he took the dragon eggs and transferred his soul and consciousness to the clone in Zendikar time and space, intending to use time magic to incubate here and cultivate a batch of adult dragons. kind.

Since he is a descendant of Culremus, and the dragon egg is filled with a lot of hellish power, there is no need to worry about encountering the same situation as before when he grows up and disobeys orders.

After a while, more than thirty huge beasts exuding terrifying dragon power were soaring in the sky where the magical energy was so full that it was about to overflow the world.

The most important thing is that the guardian of Zendikar - "Conglomerate Warlock" Nahiri, has now gone to the time and space of Ixalan to monitor the artifact - the Eternal Sun, so Zuo Si does not need to spend any thought Instead of dealing with this slightly crazy woman, you can take some time to appreciate the magnificent and gorgeous scenery around you.

Since all three Eldrazi calms have disappeared, Zendikar's world will is no longer as manic as before, and various horrific natural disasters are slowly calming down.

This means that places that were originally unsuitable for large population gatherings can now begin to build towns with large populations.

Various races are gathering together at an extremely fast speed, evolving from small gathering places towards urbanization.

Intelligent creatures that previously could only rely on gathering and hunting for a living have now developed small-scale agriculture, animal husbandry, and metal smelting processes.

Especially the magic metals, gems and other specialties born in this time and space with super abundant mana aroused Zuo Si's great interest.

After packing up all the hatched dragons, he immediately went to the largest cities along the coast to trade with the locals to obtain materials that could be used to make high-level magic items and even artifacts.

While he was enjoying shopping, he suddenly noticed a figure wearing a blue-green and white patterned cloak appearing not far ahead.

Planeswalker - Jace Beleren?

Zuo Si recognized the other person almost at a glance, immediately put the ore in his hand back on the stall, then walked straight up to him with a smile and said hello.

"Long time no see, dear friend. Are you waiting here specially for me?"

Jace Beleren slowly raised his head, revealing the hidden hood under his hood. Those glowing blue eyes: "What else? You know, I spent more than a month looking for you, even traveling repeatedly through different time and space."

"Why are you looking for me?"

Zuo Si asked calmly.

“For Nicol Bolas and his sinister plans, of course.

In fact, after our last meeting, I returned to Ravnica and began investigating in secret. 
As a result, this investigation revealed a large number of spies he planted within the Guildpact, including many planeswalkers like you and me.

The most important thing is, my allies. While following the clues, I discovered a time and space called Amonkhet

There stands the great horned monument of Nicol Bolas, and a wealth of legends about him.

There is something wrong with this world, and it seems to be pregnant with a huge conspiracy.

I would like you to join us in investigating the cause and effect. ”

Jace Belian did not hide anything and bluntly stated the purpose of his trip.

Although he was unable to read Zuo Si’s thinking and memory, he did not completely trust the people in front of him. This young human understands that when dealing with an enemy as powerful as Nicol Bolas, it is necessary to gain as many planeswalker allies as possible.

"Who are the allies you have found now?"

Zuo Si asked in an uncertain tone.

Jace Beleren replied without thinking: "Lillian Navis, Chandra Nalaar, Nissa Revan, Gideon Jura.

They were basically either plotted by Nicol Bolas, or they were used to break the Eldrazi Titan seal like me.

Now we need the guidance of an insider to figure this out. What exactly does Lao Long want to do?

And you are the most suitable candidate.

Because all of us feel that you must know a lot of secrets and inside stories. ”

Hearing these words, Zuo Si’s mouth twitched slightly uncontrollably.

Although under his intervention, the original script completely collapsed from the beginning. Representatives of the new generation of planeswalkers did not even experience the big event of the Eldrazi unblocking and finally formed an alliance.

But who would have thought that even so, the "Five Little Strong" would still come together under the circumstances.

And because they have not experienced the ravages of the Eldrazi, they have not yet made contact with the three ancient planeswalkers, Nahiri, Sorin Markov, and the spirit dragon Ugin.

This also means that the current Jace Beleren has no idea who Nico Bolas is.

I don’t even know how much time and space this oldest and most powerful Elder Dragon Planeswalker has destroyed, and what kind of terrifying power he possesses.

Is Amonkhet's hour of disillusionment finally beginning?

Or is this just a starting signal, and the other party has not yet begun an in-depth investigation into the secrets behind Amonkhet's time and space?

If it's the former, it means that the arrival of War of the Spark is getting closer.

There is no doubt that Zuo Si is not ready for a head-on collision with Lao Long, so he must find ways to delay the final battle until later.

After thinking about this, he immediately raised his head and responded: "Sorry, I may not be of much help this time.

Because the time and space of Amonkhet is deeper than you expected. There are many dangers, and if you act rashly, it may bring about a series of serious consequences.

You are not prepared for such terrible consequences, and neither am I.

So I suggest you stop all actions in Amonkhet's time and space, withdraw and wait patiently until the time comes. "

"You mean...

Amonkhet has actually been controlled by Nicol Bolas?

Is he the Supreme Pharaoh God who must be respected and obeyed by all people and gods? If we investigate in depth, may his plan be exposed in advance, and then launch a surprise attack at any cost? ”

Jace Beleren was so smart that he immediately guessed the subtext of what he just said.

Zuo Si nodded pretending to be serious: "You can say that.

In fact, Nicol Bolas formed an army of immortals composed of undead in Amonkhet. , enough in number to start a full-scale war to conquer other time and space.

I am not sure what he wants to do, but once this army is activated, it will definitely trigger a violent chain reaction.

I think it’s better not to irritate him before I’m fully prepared.”

Jace Beleren narrowed his eyes and pondered for a long time, and finally suppressed the curiosity to continue asking and sighed: "Well - okay, I think I understand what you mean. Since Amonkhet can't go deep for the time being. Investigation, where do you think we should start?"

"It's simple!

Go to Kaladesh and find Tezzeret.

As far as I know. He is secretly working for Nicol Bolas and seems to be trying to steal the Time Bridge at the Inventors' Expo.

It is a device that allows inanimate objects to travel across time and space on a large scale.

If the guess is correct, Nicol Bolas should want to use it to transport Amonkhet's Legion of Eternals.

As long as we can get the time bridge before Tezzeret, then we can kill his plan from the source. ”

Zuo Si straightforwardly gave an idea to pull the trigger.

Without the time and space bridge, Old Long would not be able to mobilize the legion of immortals that he had prepared for countless years. Naturally, there would be no other way. Launch the War of Sparks.

When the time comes, all you need to do is make some small moves to steal the time-space bridge from the hands of this new generation of "Five Little Strong". Then it is up to you to decide when to launch the War of Sparks.

Seizing the initiative has always been the core of all Zuo Si's plans, and this time is no exception.

"That's it! I think I know what to do."

Jace Beleren's eyes flashed with blue light again, and he immediately activated the power of the spark and disappeared. .

As soon as he walked away with his front foot, Zuo Si also activated the spark on his back foot and headed to the time and space of Amonkhet to find the old dragon.

The two appeared in two different places in Amonkhet's time and space almost at the same time.

Jace Beleren briefly told the general situation to the other four companions, and then the five of them went to Kaladesh to follow Tezzeret's footsteps without hesitation.

At the same time, far away in the desert, inside the Great Pyramid where the Legion of the Eternals was hidden, Zuo Si once again stood in front of Nicol Bolas, holding his chest with one hand and bowing deeply. .

"Great Dragon Lord, I am very honored to be received by you again."

"You still know how to come to me?

I thought you thought your wings were weak You want to get rid of my control and start your own business

Last time you were in Mirrodin, you almost killed Tezzeret I sent. "

Old Long taunted angrily.

It is not difficult to see from the cold and ferocious expression on his face that he is quite dissatisfied with Zuo Si's performance in recent times. 
Especially since there was no news about his brother Spirit Dragon Wujin for such a long time

Zuo Si was obviously prepared for this, and explained with a calm smile: "I miss you. There must be some misunderstanding.

The reason why I beat Tezzeret last time was because this idiot wanted to use your name to steal my experimental results, so I took action to teach him a lesson.

Such a waste that has little success and more than failure, is simply unable to complete the important tasks you have assigned.

On this point, time will tell.

What's more, this time I brought news about your recently resurrected good brother - Wu Jin. "

" Wujin? ! ”

When Nicol Bolas heard the news, his eyes instantly lit up, and his huge body leaned forward slightly. His eyes flashed with a storm of blue, black, and red mana that was constantly intertwined.

“Yes.

Not long ago, he personally went to Dominaria to conduct some investigations, and then went to Ixalan to meet an old friend—— Azor.

I believe you are not unfamiliar with this Sphinx who used his own sparks to create the Immortal Sun.

If nothing else, Ugin must have known about it. We are actively preparing to respond to your attempt to launch a War of Sparks

After previous failures, I think Wujin will definitely not easily engage in a head-on battle with you again, but will do everything possible to sabotage the entire plan through other means. ”

Zuo Si simply shook out the words he had prepared in advance.

His purpose was very simple, which was to use Wujin to divert the attention of the old dragon in front of him and help Jace. Seize the time and space bridge over there to buy enough time.

"Damn it!" This is not good news. "

Realizing that Ugin may have joined forces with Azor again, Nicol Bolas's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

He clearly remembered that thousands of years ago, these two old yinbi planned to use the Eternal Sacred Sun to imprison themselves in a certain time and space from which they could never escape.

Zuo Si nodded in agreement: "You are right, this is indeed quite bad news.

So I think it is best for you to leave Amonkhet and go to other time and space first. Hide to prevent being plotted by Wu Jin who holds the Eternal Sacred Sun.

I will continue to provide you with Wu Jin's movements, and try to find a suitable time to launch a surprise attack, and you will take action to deal with it yourself. .

Before this, all other actions are suspended.”

"Can I really believe you?"

Nicol Bolas lowered his huge head, exuding a creepy aura of terror.

"Is there anyone else you can trust right now besides me?

Don't tell me it's Tezzeret.

He means a lot to you Just a tool that can be used, not even a subordinate.

And this guy is a typical wallflower, loyal only to himself.

As long as the price is right, he will switch to others at any time. "

Zuo Si was obviously not frightened, but asked with a calm face.

Now, this is not the first time that he was weak and powerless when he was blocked by the old dragon. , but already has enough power to kill the gods, and can barely fight with it.

But the odds of winning are not very high for the time being, so I don't want to take the risk.

Nicol Bolas fell silent for a moment.

After thinking for a long time, he dragged his chin with his front paws and said to himself: "I admit that what you said makes sense.

Tezzeret is indeed not a reliable person. . But the problem is that you are also unreliable in my eyes.

So now I give you a chance to prove yourself.

Tell me what you saw in Mirrodin. , are you secretly studying something again? ”

Hearing this, Zuo Si couldn't help laughing immediately, and took out two small bottles from his pocket while laughing.

You don’t need to ask to know that one of them must be filled with the original old version of Shimmering Oil, while the other one is filled with serum extracted from Melilai’s blood.

He did not speak, but directly poured the oil on his arm, letting it corrode his flesh and blood.

Follow up and pour another bottle of serum.

The shimmering oil that was extremely arrogant just before the blink of an eye quickly dissolved and evaporated in just a few seconds, and finally disappeared completely without a trace.

This incredible scene made the well-informed old dragon show an extremely surprised expression, and couldn't help but ask: "Is this the result of your research? Have you found a way to avoid the infection of shimmering oil? ”

“You guessed it right.

To be precise, I found a person in Mirrodin who is completely immune to Shimmer Oil infection and can even help others get rid of Shimmer Oil. 
Tezzeret wanted to take it away, so I had no choice but to teach him a lesson.

Now that the Shimmering Oil has continued to infect Mirrodin, it has become completely dehumanized. It has become an inevitable reality.

Considering the great threat that the Old Fere led by Yawgmoth once posed to the entire universe, the value of this special individual is extraordinary. ”

Zuo Si deliberately put on a proud look. He selectively told part of the truth.

After all, there are too many people who have seen Mei Lilai’s unique ability, and there is no way to proceed. Keeping it secret is worse than simply telling it to win the old dragon's trust.

In contrast, what really needs to be kept secret is the counter-infection within New Phyrexia.

That's it. One of the real trump cards.

"No wonder..."

Nico Bolas immediately understood why the young man in front of him almost killed Tezzeret.

If it were him, and such an important experimental subject was taken away, he would not hesitate to use force.

However, as one of the oldest planeswalkers, the old dragon did not have much fear of the Eldrazi Titans or Phyrexia's Glitter Oil, otherwise he would not have gone to Zendikar back then. After passing the seal, he showed an expression of contempt and disdain.

Like his brother Ugin, he also has a way to deal with the Eldrazi.

As for the shimmering oil, Nicol Bolas never paid attention to it.

In fact, the legion of immortals he cultivated in the time and space of Amonkhet has a set of mechanisms specifically built into it to fight against shimmering oil.

This means that if someone wants to use shimmering oil to infect the Eternal Legion, not only will they get nothing in the end, but they will also receive a full three-dimensional upgrade for the Eternal for free.

However, the disadvantage of the Eternal is that there must be a powerful enough Necromancer in the center to command and dispatch.

The Necromancer Liliana was carefully selected to perform this task.

For this reason, Lao Long did not hesitate to spend decades planning to make this woman who wanted strength, beauty and immortality fall into the trap he had set little by little.

With all the demons who signed the contract dead, he has gained ownership of Liliana's soul.

Nicol Bolas, who thought he had figured out the cause and effect, regained his arrogance and raised his head slightly to let the golden sunlight outside shine on his huge pair of horns and the soul gem emitting a strange light in the middle of the horns. , said in a condescending tone: "Okay, I think I can give you a certain amount of trust now. Now tell me, what kind of reward do you want for bringing such important news?"

"There is always only one thing I desire, and that is endless magical knowledge. Of course, if you are willing to give some amazingly powerful artifacts, I will gladly accept it."

Zuo Si, as always Stay humble and respectful.

When facing an old dragon that was more powerful than himself, he never minded lowering his posture to lower the opponent's wariness.

In this way, when the War of Sparks suddenly launches a backstab at a critical moment, I believe the expression on the old dragon's face will be very exciting.

"Artifact? Ah! I remembered it when you mentioned it. Since you like these things, I'll give this to you."

After that, Nico· Bolas pulled out a strange-shaped wooden staff from somewhere and threw it in front of Zuo Si. He introduced it with great interest: "This was after the melee between the elder dragons in ancient times, due to the rise of Dominaria's time and space.

It contains countless powerful spells and was originally an artifact specially prepared for Karona, the mother of magic. >

However, after this powerful man-made god was destroyed, the artifact also lost most of its power.

But even so, it is still a treasure that countless spellcasters dream of.

As for the specific effects, it is different for everyone.

In my hands, this artifact will have the effect of gathering and compressing mana, thereby causing even more terrifying destructive power.

But in the hands of others, it may be to amplify psychic magic or increase the range of influence of the best spell.

Thousands of years ago when I was young, I used this artifact to defeat many powerful enemies.

But now it is of no use to me, so I will give it to you as a reward. ”

There is no doubt that as an elder dragon that has lived for almost 30,000 years, Nicol Bolas possesses various artifacts, magical knowledge, ancient spells, and countless enough to compete with the gods. A summoned creature that is comparable to, or even a god in itself, is definitely beyond the imagination of the new generation of planeswalkers.

Especially when Zuo Si picked up the inconspicuous wooden staff, he immediately felt the spark stored in his body. The energy begins to burn and boil, as if it has entered some kind of overload state. The energy, no matter what attribute it is, is repeatedly purified, and can pour out in an instant to form a shock wave that can destroy everything.

Fortunately, this feeling only lasts. It existed for just a few seconds and was quickly suppressed.

He himself couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart. He was indeed the Master of Numenna who created the first ancient magical civilization in the time and space of Dominaria. He was the exclusive artifact created for the man-made god, Karona, the mother of magic. .

Even after losing most of his power, he still possesses such incredible terrifying power.

You can imagine how powerful Karona was when she held it.

So much so that the mage of Numenna devoted all her strength to self-destruction, finally destroying the Mother of Magic before she could begin to understand her full power.

“Thank you for your generosity. I swear it won’t be long before I bring you news from Ugin again.”

Zuo Si put one hand on his chest and bowed slightly to give his assurance solemnly.

He was not surprised that the old dragon would give him an ancient and powerful artifact.

Because it was nothing to Nicol Bolas.

All the gods in the entire Amonkhet space and time, whether they are beast-headed or insect-headed, all have artifacts in their hands.

And Nicol Bolas possesses many powerful spells that can withstand almost all forms of damage.

This means that as long as he is willing, he can completely make himself invulnerable to water and fire. Even if thousands of artifacts attack together, they will not be able to destroy even a small scale on his body.

In the original plot of War of the Spark, the reason why Nico Bolas capsized in the sewer was entirely because he was careless and forgot about the jackal-headed fanatical god Hazoret's artifact spear. He died under the weapon he blessed.

To a certain extent, if the old dragon can complete the War of Sparks and return to the level of an ancient planeswalker, then the power he possesses will definitely far exceed the powerful divine power, and he can even create a world by himself and become a god. God above.

The plane of Amonkhet is a living example of this.

The self-proclaimed Pharaoh God is basically no different from the God of Gods in this world.

Not only did he brainwash all the gods to serve his immortal plan, but he also killed them at will after using them and transformed them into undead form. The immortal evil god continued to fight life and death in the War of Sparks. He simply killed and took whatever he wanted. .

"I'm looking forward to your next report. Remember, don't disappoint me, because that means very, very serious consequences and costs."

After saying this, it is full of warning. If so, Nicol Bolas directly activated the power of sparks and disappeared.

He is not a fool. He knows how much of a threat his brother, the spiritual dragon Wujin, who was killed twice by him, can pose after cooperating with Azor, who created the Eternal Sacred Sun.

Although I am completely worthy of fighting head-on, it would be a lot of fun if I accidentally get blocked and trapped in Amonkhet.

Nicol Bolas didn't like to take risks at this time, so he decisively chose to go to other time and space to avoid the limelight.

We will wait until Ugin and Azor’s next specific plans are confirmed before deciding how to respond.

Seeing that he had finally succeeded in scaring the old dragon away after being fooled for a long time, Zuo Si, who stayed where he was, was obviously relieved, turned around and walked out of the pyramid located deep in the desert, facing the scorching sun while avoiding the endless The mummy, whose purpose was wandering in the endless yellow sand, soon found a temple of the beast-headed god.

Unfortunately, there are many people taking part in the trial here.

As one of the five animal-headed gods who have appeared in public, Oketra, the true believer god with a cat head, is standing on a high place with a majestic look, looking down at those who are undergoing trials or struggling, Or a mortal who is displaying noble qualities.

Since she represents order and protection, the content of her trials is more geared towards teamwork, and her whole body is filled with the white mana light that symbolizes order.

Since this was not the first time he had seen a creature like a god, Zuo Si did not show any surprise or nervousness. He hid in the crowd of onlookers and carefully observed and judged this "cat" God"'s strength, and what is the difference between the form of a god and those gods that exist purely in a philosophical form in the Toril universe.
