Garen looked at the sun sculpture, looked away to avoid being deceived, and fell into deep thought.
Physical means alone do not seem to have the slightest effect on the sun sculpture.
"If you can't destroy it, just throw it into a corner somewhere?"
Garen shook his head, feeling that it would be a pity to just throw it away.
After all, it was an item related to God. He vaguely felt that although this sun sculpture was strange, if it was used well, it might bring unexpected effects.
After a moment, Garen withdrew his gaze, groped his chin with his dragon claws, and said secretly: "The most urgent task now is to find out what kind of creatures the sun sculpture will have an effect on."
According to the current information, we know that both he and the two-headed ogre were affected and bewitched.
Ordinary ogres are not affected at all when looking at the sun sculpture. Apart from being indestructible, this thing seems to be an ordinary wooden sculpture to them.
"Wuga, carry the sun sculpture over there."
Garen pointed to a large blank field.
After Wu Ga moved the sun sculpture over, he looked at Garonne as if he wanted to say something, but the Garonne dragon wings in its field of vision shook, set off a roaring wind, and flew into the sky, disappearing into the night in the blink of an eye.
There was no trace.
Garen flew at high speed and returned to the glacier territory.
The giant white dragon grabbed an ordinary Arctic ice spirit and flew it high into the sky without saying any reason.
In the air, the Arctic Ice Spirit looked up at Garen and said respectfully: "Master, is there anything you want me to do?"
Garen lowered his head and glanced at it. The ice crystal face, which was indistinguishable from male to female and full of neutral beauty, was full of awe.
"A small experiment. If it succeeds, I will give you a reward."
Garen did not say what would happen if it failed, but the Arctic Ice Spirit was highly intelligent, and it vaguely guessed the consequences of failure after listening to Garen's words. However, there was no dissatisfaction or fear on its face. Instead, it looked like it could do something for Garen.
And a proud expression.
This is the power of dragon vein transformation.
It has a certain brainwashing effect.
As for the inhumane thing of using family members for dangerous experiments...... From Garen's point of view, it's normal.
The family members enjoy protection under his dragon wings, and they will naturally sacrifice their lives for him if necessary.
After all, they are just servants who serve themselves. Garen does not care what they think of him. Whether they treat him as a compassionate and kind master or a cruel evil master, it has no impact on Garen.
Because he was flying at full speed, it didn't take long for Garen to return to the Ogre Basin. The ogres had returned to their normal appearance. They were talking around the big iron pot and didn't know what they were talking about. Uga Broken Bones stood tall,
Carrying a black hammer, he patrolled the basin and enjoyed the status and power of the ogre leader.
boom!
Garen landed, the dragon wings gathered at his side, and the Arctic Ice Spirit had been put down by him and brought to the side of the sun sculpture.
"Owner?"
The Arctic Ice Spirit looked at Garen in confusion, not understanding what he needed to do.
Garen said solemnly: "Look at the sun sculpture on your right."
He suspected that the sun sculpture would only confuse creatures with higher intelligence, so almost all ogres were immune to its influence. Uga Boneshatter's intelligence was considered high among ordinary ogres, but it was the same as the Arctic Ice Spirit.
It pales in comparison.
The intelligence of elemental life forms is generally much higher than that of adult humans. Even though the Arctic Ice Spirits are the product of failure, this failure is reflected in their combat effectiveness, and their intelligence is not low.
The Arctic Ice Spirit followed Gallon's instructions and turned to look at the sun sculpture.
Garen untied the frost ice crystal and revealed its body, the eyeballs embedded in the sphere, the shape of the dark sun, and the surrounding fine tentacles......
....all full of weird and chilling feelings.
The Arctic Ice Spirit looked at the sun sculpture with uneasy eyes, guessing that this was probably the little experiment that Gallon mentioned.
But what it was wondering in its heart was that it was just a sculpture that looked a little weird. What danger could it possibly have?
Garen silently observed the changes in the Arctic Ice Spirit from the side. As scattered snowflakes fell, the surrounding atmosphere seemed to become much more solemn.
Within the first three or four seconds, everything seemed normal to the Arctic Ice Spirit, as if it was not affected in any way.
But when it stared at the sun sculpture for more than five seconds, something changed.
On the indistinguishable face of the arctic ice spirit, a pair of eyes carved from ice crystals suddenly became blank. Everything else in its field of vision seemed to have disappeared, and only the sun sculpture remained in the world.
"He was born in the black mist, and he is the creator of the black mist."
"............."
"He is the Creator of all, He is the supreme sun."
A low murmur of unintelligible words came to his ears, like the devil's bewitching voice, which penetrated directly into his soul, making the Arctic Ice Spirit couldn't help but show a pious look.
At the same time, the Arctic Ice Spirit began to move, getting closer to the sun sculpture.
Upon seeing this, Garen's expression became solemn, and he shouted in a deep voice, "Stop!"
The mighty dragon swept out from Garen's body and passed by the Arctic Ice Spirit.
Affected by the dragon's power, Jibei Ice Spirit's body trembled, and a trace of clarity appeared on his face. He looked at the sun sculpture in astonishment, but this trace of clarity fell into whispers in an instant.
Continue to get closer to the sun sculpture step by step.
Garen raised the dragon's claw, uttered a spell, mobilized the surrounding elemental energy, and the dragon's hand was ready to attack.
But after thinking for a while, Garen put down the dragon claw, interrupted the spell, and watched silently as the Arctic Ice Spirit sank little by little under the strange power of the sun sculpture.
He wanted to see how this thing specifically affected living things and how it gave that black mist power.
As for the affected Arctic Ice Spirit...the fate has been decided.
Next, when the Arctic Ice Spirit came within one meter of the sun sculpture, it closed its eyes slightly, knelt down under the sun sculpture with a holy and pious look, lowered its head, and its face was covered by shadows.
A strange voice came from the mouth of the Arctic Ice Spirit, which was not in any known language on Noah's continent.
What Garen heard clearly was the whisper he heard when he was bewitched.
He memorized the transitions of each syllable. Because of his outstanding language talent, he already had a certain understanding of this evil language.
A few seconds later, something happened that made Garen's face change slightly.
Threads of black mist, like silk threads and tiny tentacles, extended from the body of the sun sculpture, gently touching the body of the Arctic Ice Spirit, and then penetrated into its skin and disappeared.
The body structure of the Arctic Ice Spirit is pure ice crystal, which is elemental life.
The body appears as a translucent solid. If there is a foreign object in the body, it will be obvious at a glance.
But after the black mist penetrated into its body, it completely blended in and disappeared, as if it was all just an illusion.
As for whether it was an illusion or not, Garen knew it in his heart.
With sharp eyes, he felt the energy fluctuations in the air and found that a lot of elemental energy was wrapped in black mist and injected into the body of the Arctic Ice Spirit, making its aura stronger bit by bit.
This speed of becoming stronger is even faster than the speed of the Arctic Ice Spirit's strength increasing after becoming a dragon-veined creature.
"What kind of energy is this black mist itself? Negative energy? The energy of hell or abyss?"
"Or, divine power?"
"No, if it is true divine power, even just a trace of it is enough to kill me instantly. The two-headed ogre used the power of black mist when fighting me."
Divine power can ignore almost all spell resistance and physical resistance. Only those who are gods or possess unique powers that are not weaker than divine power can resist it. Even legendary casters and even ancient red dragons cannot resist divine attacks.
The possibility of instant defeat is greatest.
Garen did not interfere with the process of the Arctic Ice Spirit's prayer. The dragon frowned slightly, thinking about the nature of the black mist energy.
Time passed bit by bit, and the night on the ice sheet was still as deep as ever.
After a few minutes, the power of the black mist absorbed by the Arctic Ice Spirit seemed to be saturated. It opened its eyes, slowly stood up, and turned to look at Garen.
Garen stopped thinking and looked at the Arctic Ice Spirit as well, sizing up the creature in front of him that had received the power of the evil god.
It looks the same as before, nothing has changed.
The aura is as strong as ever, and even after being restrained, he is still as weak as a reptile.
In particular, the expression shown in front of Garen was the same respect and awe as always, as if Garen was still the only master in its mind.
"Great Master, do you have any other instructions?"
Under Garen's scrutinizing gaze, the Arctic Ice Spirit lowered its head respectfully and asked weakly in a low voice.
Jia Long pondered for a moment and said expressionlessly: "Yes."
Jibei Bingling was slightly startled and said subconsciously: "What?"
Garen narrowed his eyes and ordered in a voice that could not be questioned: "My loyal family member, I order you to commit suicide immediately."
Jibei Bingling's face froze, and he said doubtfully: "Master............."
Looking at its appearance and listening to its tone, it seemed as if it didn't understand why Garen suddenly issued such an order.
Before the Arctic Ice Spirit could finish its begging for mercy, the Garonne dragon's claws moved slightly, chanting a spell, and the surrounding elemental power immediately became active.
Three-ring spell, dragon's hand!
The lifelike translucent ferocious dragon claws appeared above the head of the Arctic Ice Spirit, and it was photographed mercilessly.
The Arctic Ice Spirit raised its head in shock, and traces of blood-vessel-like black lines suddenly appeared on its ice-blue body, trying to resist Garen's attack.
collapse!
The dragon's hand fell, crushing the Arctic Ice Spirit from top to bottom, crushing its body into pieces of pale ice crystals.
What's strange is that there are black lines connected in series between these ice crystals, squirming slightly, trying to sew together and regenerate.
Garen snorted softly and controlled the dragon's hand to crush it back and forth, crushing the body of the Arctic Ice Spirit into lifeless ice dust.
The Arctic Ice Spirit, which had just gained some power from the black mist, had increased in strength, but was still as weak as a baby in front of Garen.
After killing the Arctic Ice Spirit with one move, Garon called Uga Boneshatter over.
Uga Bone Broken didn't know what was happening here. It glanced at Garen's face, turned a blind eye to the Arctic Ice Spirit who was crushed into powder by Garen, and silently waited for Garen's order.
"Wuga, go back and take a few ogres with you, and throw them into a remote crevice in the ice valley."
Galleon sprayed out the frost dragon's breath and re-frozen the sun sculpture. In the snow-covered Far North Icefield, these frost ice crystals could exist for at least decades if there were no deliberate destruction by living creatures.
When Unga Boneshatter returned to greet the other ogres, Garon planted a time stamp on the sun sculpture.
The power of the time stamp is directly imprinted on the body of the sun sculpture through the frost and ice crystals.
The effect shown by the power of time is quite satisfactory to Long.
This is the benefit of being able to cast spells. Spells can do many whimsical things and have various wonderful uses.
Uga Boneshatter came back with four ogres, carried the heavy ice crystals together, and left the ogre basin according to Garen's order, moving to a deep ice valley forty kilometers away from the ogre basin.
past.
Gallon had passed by the deep ice valley before. It was at least a thousand meters deep, with cold winds like knives, rugged and steep valley walls, and no trace of life at the bottom.
Throw the sun sculpture in and it will not be easily accessible to other creatures.
When you need it, you can find it again based on the time stamp.
Garon felt that this sculpture, which could pollute the caster's mind, could have an unexpected effect at the right time.
For example, if any kingdom or church discovers the traces of Garen and wants to slay the dragon, he can throw this thing near the opponent's base camp and let them taste the power of the evil god sculpture.
Apart from anything else, this believer bewitched by the evil god has a high level of intelligence and is very good at disguising himself.
After temporarily solving the problem of the sun sculpture, Garen returned to the two-headed ogre's stone house in the Ogre Basin and searched inside and outside to see if there were any other good things here.
"It would be nice if there were spell books from other departments."
Just the spells and transformation systems are far from satisfying Garen.
What he is most interested in is the protection system.
It's not that I'm afraid of death, I just think that protective spells would be interesting.
Well, as a time dragon with no life limit and getting more powerful the longer he lives, his first priority is to learn the protection system.
After opening the romantic paladin and taking a few more glances at the illustrations inside, Garen put the book down, closed his eyes slightly, and performed the zero-ring trick to detect auras.
Items carrying elemental power will have an aura on them. This aura is difficult to see with the naked eye, but can be discovered by detecting the aura. It is called elemental aura, magic aura, or arcane aura.
Powerful spells or powerful magic props are all surrounded by dazzling auras.
If a lower-ranking mage uses Detect Aura to see a legendary spell, it is very possible to be instantly blinded by the dazzling aura.
As for arcane magic, it is the name of ancient magic from a long time ago.
Some people still refer to spells as arcane, but there are not many of them anymore.
Compared with the abundant spells developed by various schools now, most of the arcane spells in ancient times are very expensive to cast. Of course, the power and effect are correspondingly stronger than ordinary spells.
It is mentioned in Merry Paladin that a great arcanist from another world once took a magic ship, crossed the crystal wall and came to the world of Noah, and became friends with the protagonist. The great arcanist came from a civilization called Netheril.
, extremely brilliant and dazzling, it can be called the golden age of magic, and Garen is yearning for it.
The Grand Arcanist is equivalent to the Legendary Mage.
Getting back to the topic, after Garen used the detection aura, he opened his eyes and scanned all the places in the stone house.
His eyes moved little by little. When he saw the double-headed ogre's big bed, Garen was slightly startled, and then a look of excitement and joy appeared on his face.
Under the bed where it was hidden, there was spiritual light coming out of it.
Judging from its outline, it looks like a round gemstone that Garen loved.
Galen stepped forward quickly and smashed the two-headed ogre's bed with his claws, revealing the hidden mezzanine below.
ps: Some readers asked where the settings of this book came from and which version of the DND rule book it was based on. It seems to mean that it must be written according to the existing DND rules.
But what I want to say is that the world I show, the books I write, and my settings are the new rules.
Popularizing science is good, but please don’t force comparisons. After all, this is a novel, not a game or a collection of settings.
