After all, if you want to cast spells on the planet Toril, the Magic Network and the Shadow Magic Network are two systems that cannot be bypassed.

At least until you ignite one yourself or get a planeswalker's spark from your father.

But what the Prince of Darkness didn't know was that the Goddess of Night had already noticed it from the moment she touched the Shadow Weave.

It was Shar who gave him the authority to control the Shadow Weave at will.

Right now, this ancient evil goddess was sitting on her throne, looking at Greia with an almost doting look, and suddenly asked: "Are you ready for the gift I asked you to prepare?"

"Yes, goddess."

A woman wearing a black robe and veil knelt down on one knee and answered in the affirmative.

Shar nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, then send someone to send it to Tifantun immediately. I can't wait to see his reaction when his dark power is closely connected to the shadow plane."

."

"Great goddess, I don't understand why you are so generous to give this enemy's descendant that artifact that all evil gods covet?"

The woman raised her head and her voice was full of doubts and confusion.

"The conflict between me and Soth has nothing to do with Greia.

What's more, the children of enemies do not necessarily mean they are enemies. The nature of dark forces attracts each other.

As long as he continues to use and integrate into the Shadow Weave, continue to draw power from the Shadow Plane and even become a part of it, he will one day fall into my arms.

Just like the relationship between Talona and Soth.

I can also slowly change the mind of this dark prince and turn him into my ally and chosen one.

Remember, what you pay now is for more rewards in the future.

You have to take a long-term view, and only by taking a long-term view can you catch big fish."

After saying that, Shar stopped paying attention to anyone and concentrated on staring at Graya's pale and handsome face and the seriousness and concentration he showed in studying the Shadow Magic Network. He was just like some psychopathic weird aunt.

.

At this moment, the goddess of night finally understood what was going on with Talona's almost crazy obsession after meeting Zuo Si.

Besides the emotional aspect, the most important thing is the attraction of the divine essence.

The feeling that cannot be described in words is like two water droplets that are very close and want to merge into one.

If it weren't for Zuo Si's stern warning, Shar would have descended into an avatar and directly injected the dark power into Graia's body with a kiss, and then declared that this was his chief elect.

But unfortunately she can't do that now.

As long as she descends into the incarnation, Zuo Si will definitely appear in an instant.

So in the end we had to choose this more obscure method.

"As you wish."

The woman bent down and bowed deeply, then turned around and left holding a cube that looked a bit like a Rubik's Cube, made up of countless tiny squares.

However, its surface does not have bright colors, but is completely non-reflective and pure black, exuding a frightening aura of nothingness, as if it simply wants to swallow up all matter, time and space around it.

When this terrifying artifact was sent to the intricate sewers beneath the ground in Tifantun City, the originally sunny sky was instantly shrouded in darkness. At a glance, the corners of the streets and alleys were filled with things that seemed to be alive.

Shadows and deeper dark vortices.

Thousands of residents panicked and tried to escape, only to find that as long as they rushed into the darkness, their figures would become hazy and blurry for a few seconds, and eventually they would be completely swallowed by the darkness.

What's even more terrible is that all areas shrouded in darkness have turned into chaotic magic areas that make spellcasters change their colors.

Several mages stationed here in Shadow City tried to use teleportation magic to escape, but in the middle of chanting the spell, their whole bodies exploded with a bang.

For a while, everyone was trapped within the city walls and even their own residences, and they did not dare to go out at will.

Because even if you go a few streets away, you may get lost in the darkness.

This small town with a population of almost 10,000 people was inexplicably turned into a ghost.

"Who can tell me! What is going on? What happened?"

"Don't ask me how I know. The sky suddenly darkened, and then darkness enveloped me. This is obviously not something ordinary magic can do."

"Could it be the fault of those guys in Ghost City?"

"Impossible! If it was their fault, what happened to those guys who used teleportation magic to escape but exploded?"

"Can magic communication still work?"

"Sorry, we can't. Our contact has been completely cut off."

…

Along with the tense discussion, several leaders who were deeply trusted by Ximanmeng in the secret stronghold of the Zhentarim in Tifanton City showed panic and panic expressions.

After all, they are not ordinary civilians outside who are unaware of the seriousness of the problem. They know very well that visions like this often mean that something terrible may happen next.

Now the whole city is like fish on a chopping board ready to be slaughtered.

In fact, not only the Zhentarim, but also the secret stronghold of Shade City also felt the biting cold.

The only difference is that because they have lived in the shadow plane for a long time, they can vaguely feel the power belonging to Shar.

But the problem is that I don't know what the goddess of the night wants to do and the role she plays in it.

Due to the emphasis on secret relationships, Shar's believers basically do not have a unified church management, but form independent small circles of activities.

It's completely normal to stab each other in the back, or to sacrifice each other as pawns.

Moreover, Tiffanytown's geographical location is very special. It is located at the northernmost point of the Kingdom of Cormyr and the southernmost point of the Enook Desert. It is adjacent to the valley to the east and is stuck on the only pass between the Stormhorn Mountains and the Mokou Mountains.

It is a typical city that functions as both a transportation hub and an important border defense town.

The place was suddenly shrouded in endless darkness, which immediately attracted the attention of the City of Shade, which claimed to be the Netheril Empire, and Zhentil Keep.

The newly recovered Elf Kingdom of Cormanthor, the Great Sage Elminster, the guardian of the valley, and the Harpers Alliance also got involved.

When Greia arrived with his army, what he saw was a scene of vitality and all things competing.

The people of Shade City were having a heated exchange of views on the use of magic with the elves of the Kingdom of Cormanthor, while Ximanmon and Fuzor Chambery led their men in a tense confrontation with their old friends Elminster and the Harpers' top brass.

What’s more interesting is that the City of Shade and Zhentil Keep are still enemies, while the elves of Cormanthor are allies with Elminster and the Harpers.

Therefore, the first two unanimously chose a temporary truce, and each chose the latter two as their opponents. However, they still remained wary of each other, and no one dared to really go all out.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! This complicated relationship is simply not an ordinary mess.

If a delicate balance and mutual restraint could still be maintained before, then the arrival of the Cormyr Kingdom's army completely shattered this balance.

Especially the Dark Prince Graya, who attracted everyone's attention from the moment he appeared.

"Hahahaha! Look who is here! Welcome, Your Highness, I think your father must have mentioned me to you."

Fuzoul Chamberlain was the first to open his mouth and look happy.

But if you look carefully, you will notice the flicker of fear in his eyes.

Elminster's reaction was just the opposite. His face was full of vigilance and solemnity. Apparently, he had noticed the rich shadow magic network aura emanating from Grea through the silver fire in his body.

Especially the dazzling red camp aura that symbolizes evil is enough to prove that he is definitely not a good person.

"If I remember correctly, Tifanton should be an undisputed territory belonging to the Kingdom of Cormyr.

Could you please explain to me, what is your purpose of crossing the border and appearing here without permission?

Or……

Can I kill you all as invaders?"

With the last word blurted out, Greia instantly released his dark power, directly forming a huge energy projection between illusion and entity behind his back, which was exactly the form he used when he swallowed the incarnation of Cyric.

Not only that, he also pulled out the long sword burning with black flames.

moment!

The already tense atmosphere at the scene immediately dropped to freezing point.

Due to the behavior pattern of the Prince of Darkness, no one dared to turn a deaf ear to such warning words.

"Are you declaring war on all of us?"

The arrogant Prince of Shadows—Lamolek Tanshur was the first to stand up and question.

As a legendary spellcaster with a LV19 mage level, a LV7 shadow mentor, and a total arcane spellcasting level of LV26, he obviously has strong confidence in his own strength.

Especially after inheriting the ideas of the great arcanists of the Netherese era, I always feel that gods and god-like powers are just a group of more powerful spellcasters.

Therefore, even if he knew that the other party had devoured an incarnation of weak divine power when he was just born, he was not afraid at all.

"Declaration of war?"

Greia showed a contemptuous smile, and then instantly turned into an afterimage and disappeared from the place.

Just 0.001 seconds later, he appeared directly behind the Prince of Shadows and inserted the sword in his hand into the opponent's back at lightning speed.

puff!

Scarlet blood continuously gushes out along with the black ink-like energy on the blade, and then flows back into the body in an extremely weird way.
