Chapter 21 Departure
Rose of Kirashar.
This artifact was crafted by followers of Lolth and the Queen of Sky and Darkness.
The soulless elf under the control of the goddess of space and darkness pierced a black diamond facet into an oak tree, causing the oak tree to drain out its body fluids and die.
After mixing the oak body fluid with the venom extracted from a thousand black roses, Rose's incarnation came and used magic to transform the venom into the shape of a rose, and then condensed the rose into Bijing Gold and mithril are stronger than amber.
Because some of the fragments of the Black Diamond's facets were mixed with the venom, the rose became a powerful weapon against good-aligned elves.
According to legend, the incarnation of the elf god Dalal Firecloak was affected by it and became crazy and bloodthirsty, and eventually even his divine power dropped to the level of a demigod.
The Rose of Chirashar is usually used to bring disaster to the elves, spread evil, and weaken the elven pantheon.
Whenever the bearer casts the death spell, darkness spell or summoning power attached to the artifact, there will be a certain chance of attracting the attention of Rose or the Queen of Sky and Darkness.
If the user is a saint, elect or incarnation of the Elven pantheon, the chance is 100%.
Once attracted attention, the bearer must make a saving throw, or fail and be dominated by the two goddesses and their alignment transforms into chaotic evil.
Depending on the status of the carrier, it is determined whether its main ruler is Rose or the goddess of space and darkness.
If the person cursed by the artifact is the incarnation of an elf god.
Lolth and the Queen of Air and Darkness will even work together to destroy the avatar's mind, causing it to become frantic in seeking out and slaughtering nearby elves.
Brian put down the quill in his hand and organized the three copied books on the table.
In fact, even if he didn't interfere, this high-level artifact would fall into the hands of Spider Queen Rose. It was just a matter of time.
As a high-level artifact, it is naturally very tempting to him.
But he knew very well that this evil artifact was so terrifying that he could not control it at all.
Besides, it still has an owner.
With his current small body, how could he compete with a god for items.
It's better to use this news to exchange for what you need most right now.
As a reborn person.
His mind was filled with more than just news about such an artifact.
Such as the Netheril Scrolls and Mysser Energy Cores of the Netheril Arcane Empire, and the Seven Mysteries of Imaskar, the Artificer Empire's Imaskar, these are all things he will have in the future. A powerful artifact obtained by chance.
If he is lucky enough to master the 'higher creations' recorded in the Nese Scroll of the Arcane Empire, and the mechanical civilization in the Seven Secrets of Imaskar, he can create an arcane in the multiverse. A science fiction country that combines technology and machinery.
This is also the fundamental reason why when he chooses the field of psion, he will choose the creative system without hesitation.
Because the creation system of psionic energy actually has the same goal as the creation field, one of the three major fields of the arcanist.
If the two are added together, the chemical reaction produced is still very powerful.
After all, mind creation is similar to creating the soul, and the arcanist's creative field is more like the body. As for Imasca's mechanical civilization, it can be considered as strengthened exoskeleton armor.
Brian slapped his forehead and suppressed the thoughts in his mind temporarily.
Because of his long-term vision and lofty ideals, whenever he plans his future, the more he thinks about it, the smaller he feels.
After all, if we investigate seriously, the main material world 'Planet Toril' where he is located is just a drop in the ocean compared to the vast multiverse.
And he is not worth mentioning.
Although in the field of arcana, one usually makes bold assumptions and tries cautiously, but the scope of his thinking is indeed a bit too big. At the moment, he still has to go down-to-earth step by step.
"I'm ready." He stood up from the chair and looked at the spider wizard opposite who had been staring at the bowl of the seer in silence from beginning to end.
"What a pity."
The spider wizard looked away and sighed deeply, "If I could see 'her' communicating with this girl, I could confirm a bold guess in my mind. "
The so-called 'she' naturally refers to the Spider Queen Rose, and this girl is Santila.
When the two saw Santila getting the Rose of Kirashar through the Bowl of the Seeer, the spider wizard immediately removed the secret surveillance.
Because the character who appears next is not something they can avoid at all, and it is very likely to attract the opponent's attention.
"What do you think?" Brian raised his eyelids and asked casually.
"About a certain fallen god." The spider wizard deliberately lowered his voice and spoke cautiously.
Brian was silent for a moment, and finally said nothing.
The reason why he didn't want to say it was mainly because he was not sure whether this guess was true or not.
He could only secretly be depressed about why he didn't have the chance to witness the success of the return of the dark girl Eilistraee when he traveled through time.
Now, he was suddenly reminded of the dark girl and Santila, which was really hard for him to accept.
His original intention was to guide Santila to obtain the high-level artifact ‘Rose of Kirashar’.
At this time, the Spider God Queen who is wandering in the ancient city of Orens will be aware of this situation.
In fact, the fundamental purpose of the arrival of Rose's incarnation was for this high-level artifact, which was also the fundamental reason why he did not dare to get involved.
In this case, this rebellious drow girl will be favored by Rose and can avoid conspiracy and betrayal for at least a year.
However, there is a deeper meaning contained in it.
Lolth's favor is a double-edged sword.
For a drow to receive this kind of favor, it means that the Spider God Queen will keep an eye on her even more closely, and any slightest move beyond her limits may even lead to the destruction of the entire family.
For a devout believer, this must be a coveted reward, but for a pan-believer who likes to joke about Rose's eighth leg, the consequences can be imagined.
This also means that Santila, who has received favor, is undoubtedly a time bomb for the entire Taxis family.
A little carelessness will lead to the destruction of the first family in the ancient city of Orens.
As for whether this matter will endanger Santila's life, Brian is not worried at all.
Because he knows this cunning and intelligent girl, and believes that she understands what this kind of grace means.
Besides, he has a back-up here, so he doesn’t have to worry about the harm it will bring to her.
"Please find a way to transfer these three books to her for me." He pushed the copied books in front of the spider wizard.
This was something he had promised Sandara, so he had to keep his promise.
Originally, he planned to hand it over to her in person, but the incident of breaking into the forbidden area of the Venomous Cave, killing the priestess of Rose, and expelling the Wax Melt Demon made a bit of a fuss.
He did not dare to risk his life by appearing in the ancient city of Orens.
"I understand."
The spider wizard waved his hand and put the books away. He was silent for a moment and said slowly, "According to our trading rules, I will send you away from here. , and I’ll give you two additional items.”
After speaking, the other party took out a pair of pure black wrist guards and a book with a gold cover.
“This piece of equipment is the result of my research when I was fighting against the Priestess of Rose. It may be of some help to you in the future. And this book records my knowledge of shadow spells and the Shadow Demon Network. I hope it can be helpful to you.”
Brian put them all away without politeness.
Equipment may not be as important to him as he imagined, but magic knowledge is something he always accepts.
After all, as a game player, the magic he learned was usually learned directly from the general spell list with the help of the system and relying on experience points.
It is impossible and there is no time to be like the wizards in the original world, who rely on their own understanding and study of magic to build a magic model to master every spell.
Because of this.
Although he now has many evocation and conjuration spells, they are all general-purpose spells. It is not a big problem to bully non-spellcasting professions or low-level spellcasters.
If the opponent we face is a group of spellcasters who have lived for countless years, it will simply make people despair.
This is no joke.
In the game world, he had personally experienced a battle with an indigenous wizard of similar strength, and his spells were either countered or neutralized by the opponent.
The other party's spells are all strange and strange magic that is both strange and mysterious.
Battles between spellcasters are often a race against time. It is impossible to leave much time for the opponent to use the "Spell Identification" skill to understand the characteristics and power of magic. He can only resist or dodge, and is very passive.
So, if you want to become a powerful professional in the real world, his magic genre and fighting style cannot be compensated by these general spells.
This is just like why companies in the real world value the confidentiality of patents and products. The same is true for wizards' spells.
He must collect as much magic knowledge as possible and develop his own spells.
As for this process, in addition to spending a huge amount of time to accumulate and research by yourself, the fastest way is to obtain private research that some wizards are willing to share with him.
It's like a book of knowledge about shadow spells and shadow magic webs given to you by the spider wizard.
"Where are you going?" The spider wizard spoke again.
"Go to the Fansi Trail." Brian said with an affirmative tone.
This was a decision he had made long ago.
The value of a Nese scroll was worth the risk.
Besides, he is now alone and has no one to rely on when he returns to the surface world.
In the distant "Northland" Silver Moon City, the companion of the psychic warlock, his magic pet disappeared without even saying hello from the moment he entered the star realm.
If the little devil's life picture was not still in his hands, he would even think that the other party had defected.
This made him realize that dealing with the devil is not that easy after all.
Even if he goes to the surface world to find a way to save the small world, with his current ability, he will not be able to speak in front of many gods and major forces.
In a world where strength speaks for itself, no one will pay attention to him.
He might as well take this opportunity to search for as many treasures as he can in the Dark Territory that he knows well.
In this way, while improving one's own level, one can also develop power on the surface and accumulate some strength and resources.
After all, in his future blueprint, the first thing to do when returning to the surface is to find a suitable territory and build a wizard tower safely.
This will definitely require huge resources to support him in doing this.
The spider wizard looked at him deeply, whispered a few spells, and an oval portal appeared in front of him.
Brian did not enter the portal immediately, but turned his back to the portal, looked at the spider wizard, and looked into the smoky gray eyes on his ebony mask, because he still had something to say. .
For a moment.
He caught a glimpse of fleeting madness in the calm gaze of the spider wizard.
This made him realize that the mad wizard described in the rumors might still have some basis.
“Under the control of his Demon Queen, that idiot spider wizard used the energy radiated by the ley lines to complete the summoning spell and brought all the incarnations of the demon lords to the Underdark. He gave the rulership of the Abyss He gave it to Rose in vain, and he didn’t even think of the consequences. What an idiot!”
This is when Rose, the Spider Queen, was promoted to powerful powers, causing her to fall into a brief slumber, causing the Underdark to be destroyed by demons! What all the underground dwellers said about the spider wizard when he was wreaking havoc.
Brian can still recall that scene with great impression:
In the tide of chaos set off in the Underdark, all that was left was blood, death and fire. Demogorgon’s bloody spiral and double cross, The overgrowth and decay of the Fungus Queen, the death and silence of the Immortal Lord. Many, many more.
Countless demonic armies are raging in the Underdark. This disaster has even spread to the surface world, with the Kingdom of Cormyr bearing the brunt.
This disaster was ultimately brought to an end by the chief mage of the ancient city of Orens, Khadrof Pumour.
Because he found the spider wizard's spell book by chance.
And based on the summoning ritual, the method of cracking was deduced, and the arcane energy in the leyline radiation was reused to drive the incarnations of these abyss lords back to the bottomless abyss.
In the ancient city of Orens.
The Spider Wizard and the Chief Archmage, two powerful male drow wizards, are actually models of resistance to Lolth.
But their methods and goals are different. The former tries to use Rose's power to fight against Rose, while the latter wants to imitate the city of Shamas, which is ruled by male drow wizards.
The fate of these brothers and sisters: the spider wizard died due to the demon's backlash, and the ancient Orens city that the chief archmage had planned to capture for a long time has been turned into a pile of ruins.
All in all, they failed to do so.
At this time, under the control of his mind, Brian finally interpreted the specific attributes of the magic equipment given to him by the other party, and a row of light blue data appeared in his retina:
< br>Lolth's Fang Bracers of Resistance +3
Type: Accessories
Quality: Purple·Excellent
Part occupied: wrist
Attributes: strength +1, agility +2
Equipment effects:
1. This equipment can automatically protect the wearer from any species of arachnids. Attacks from animals and snakes (including other creatures magically assuming such forms) force these attackers to take 30% less hit and attack damage when attacking the wearer.
2. The wearer of the wrist guards, when fighting or using nets (covering all types, even magic nets, or living web-weaving monsters not related to arachnids), venom and acid or other Secretions gain a +3 bonus on saving throws or attack rolls.
3. This equipment is completely immune to all contact attacks launched by the snake-head whip (such as the snake-head whip wielded by the priestess of Lolth). The activated snake head of this type of weapon cannot touch the wearer of the wrist guard at all.
(Note: There is never the so-called empathy. Only those who have experienced the torture of Rose's fangs can taste it based on their own experience and painful process, and at the same time make a very targeted plan on how to resist. Such a harmful item. )
…………
Brian looked at the ordinary pair of black wristbands for a long time, and finally sighed softly in his heart.
He bowed deeply to the wizard to show respect, and then said to him in a rather solemn tone:
"Finding an opportunity to destroy 'her' power and pretending to serve 'her' seems to be the only hope, but it also contains a major crisis. If you keep pretending to be 'her' slave, one day you will wake up to yourself In fact, he really became one of them.
Time seems to be an ally, but it is also an enemy. As time goes by, everything, even a sincere and kind-hearted drow, is very likely. You have been corrupted and fallen, just take care of yourself."
He stepped into the portal and never looked back.
"Maybe, my friend, but by doing so, at least it will give me a chance to choose when the new day comes, whether it is for better or for worse."
< br>The spider wizard stared at Brian's leaving back, sighed deeply, and waved his hand tiredly.
In the clear water of the bowl of the seer, the scene where everyone in the Tux family was cheering and blessing Santila, who was favored by Rose, disappeared.
The spider wizard stood up, for his time to serve the goddess Lolth had come.
He stared feverishly at the statue of Spider Queen Rose and prayed devoutly:
‘She’ is the strongest.
‘She’ has enjoyed more prosperity and joy than anyone alive can imagine.
‘She’ has killed more opponents than anyone alive.
‘She’ kills all the enemies around her and even waits to devour their corpses before she sets out to chase the living beings wandering outside the realm of death.
‘She’ is the strongest.
‘She’ will rise in carnage, chaos and domination.
‘She’ is the strongest, always killing everything and dominating everything.
This is how ‘she’ lives up to her majesty as a god.
He's so stupid and 'she' knows it.
Every step he takes is meaningless, his fate has been sealed long ago.
He had no other choice.
Because the drow was driven by irresistible hunger, his soul was shattered.
Driven by pure self-preservation, the drow were left dead.
The drow, driven by foolish pride, were both physically and mentally silent.
The drow, driven by the instinctive desire to survive, decay and perish, or live in espionage.
The drow, driven by delicate intrigues, are still alive!
They know there can only be one winner.
For all the rest of life, there is only hard labor or death, no other choice.
Eight long legs clicked against the stone.
Tick, tick, tap, tap, endurance is twisted, stretched, and torn to pieces
