Garen already had a premonition when he saw Karsus appearing in front of him.
However, when he heard Karsus personally say that he had successfully created the art of ascending to the gods, his heart could not help but palpitate, and his eyes flashed with light.
I have been waiting for Karsus for almost thirty years.
The teachings along the way, the correction of his magic path, etc., weren't they just for this moment?
Garen exhaled and whispered to Karsus: "It sounds like a very powerful spell."
Karsus nodded and said in a confident and calm tone: "Teacher, I will use this spell to end the war between Netheril and the Ferrin."
In the historical trajectory of the main timeline, he did indeed do it.
It's just that both sides will suffer and perish together.
The Phayling Demon Sunflower is a very pure magical creature, and it needs the existence of the Magic Network. If the Ascension Technique is successfully used on the Goddess of Magic, when the Magic Network collapses and the floating cities fall one after another, the Phayling Demon Sunflower will also fall in large numbers.
die.
This creature cannot live without magic.
"What is its effect?"
Garen asked.
Karsus said slowly: "Target the gods and seize all the power of a god."
"His knowledge, His Godhead, His extraordinary power."
"If the ascending technique is successful, I will replace the gods."
After hearing the answer he wanted, Gallon smiled and said: "Karsus, I remember you had this idea when you were a child, but now you have really made it come true."
After a pause, Garen said to Karsus: "So, what is your goal?"
"Do you still want to replace the goddess of magic as before?"
Facing Garen's inquiry, Karsus nodded naturally and said, "This is natural."
"In place of the goddess of magic, I will become the first great arcanist in history to become a god and a powerful one."
"My name will be remembered by history, and will be regarded as honor and pride by all Netherian arcane masters."
Garon shook his head inconspicuously and said in a serious tone: "Karsus, you seem to think that capturing the power of the gods is too simple. If your target is a demigod, I think it is possible to succeed."
"But, as a magical goddess with powerful divine power?"
"Do you really think it's possible?"
Karsus raised his head, looked at the silver dragon, and said solemnly: "Teacher, you have always taught me to believe in my own will and my own strength."
"This time, please trust me."
This... I can't believe you as a teacher at all.
Garen thought secretly.
After all, his disciple is also a confident and arrogant great arcanist. No wonder he dares to cast twelve-ring spells on gods.
Garen nodded and said, "That's right, you can give it a try."
Saying that, the silver dragon said casually: "But your sister is the goddess of magic. She should be very sad if you have such an idea."
When Karsus was a boy, his heart had already been captured by his close sister who turned into the goddess of magic.
This guy is now in his thirties, but has never had a family.
Obviously, he still misses the goddess of magic.
It's just that he doesn't know about the incarnation of the goddess of magic.
Suddenly hearing about the goddess of magic, Karsus was slightly startled and said: "Miss sister? She has been..."
Before he finished speaking, Karsus' voice paused. He came back to his senses and realized what incredible words his teacher had casually said.
Karsus' eyes slowly opened wide, showing an expression of shock.
"Old teacher, what did you say?"
"Miss sister is the goddess of magic?"
"How is this possible?"
"Teacher, are you kidding?"
Karsus' voice stuttered a little, and at the same time he fired off four questions in a row.
Garen blinked, looked down at his apprentice, and said, "Yes, otherwise, where do you think your almost infinite magic power comes from?"
"That is the protection and blessing of the goddess of magic. It is a gift from your sister."
"As Nether, or even the most talented spellcaster in the entire human history, your boy has successfully won the favor of the goddess of magic."
After learning the news, Karsus' brain seemed to have shut down, showing a sluggish look.
After a long time, his eyes gradually regained their clarity and were filled with the wisdom of an arcanist.
The real name of the first-generation magic goddess is Missriel.
Miss Riel, Miss... Karsus murmured in a low voice.
A fan of the authorities, even if the two names are very similar, it is normal for him not to think that the 'Miss Sister' who has always been intellectual and caring is the goddess of magic.
Karsus looked at the silver dragon staring at him, smiled bitterly, and said: "Teacher, you have been hiding this from me, just because you want to see my reaction at this time for fun?"
Jia Long stroked his non-existent dragon beard and said with a smile: "You guessed it, you are worthy of being my disciple."
Karsus sighed and said helplessly: "Are you satisfied now?"
Garen responded with action.
Dragon Claw touched it with his backhand and took out a mass energy crystal.
Magic power was injected into it, and suddenly, the elemental energy converged into pictures and sounds. Karsus' weird reaction when he just learned the truth was played in front of him.
"You don't act like a calm and wise Grand Arcanist."
The silver dragon said with a smile.
The great arcanist blushed and said, "Teacher, how could you do this?"
As he said that, he was about to grab the crystal in Garen's hand, but as soon as he moved his body, he was pressed down by Garen's claw.
Garen threw the crystal into the dimensional space and said to Karsus: "This is my collection, so don't think about robbing it."
Karsus exerted his iron will on himself and quickly calmed down. Then he said helplessly: "Okay, if you like, just keep it, as long as you don't take it out everywhere to show to other arcanists."
That’s fine.”
Garen did not agree, but just changed the subject and said: "So, do you still want to target the goddess of magic and perform the divine ascension spell?"
Karsus was silent for a while, then shook his head slightly.
"There are many gods who can turn Netheril around."
"It's okay for me to change my target."
Garen nodded and said: "Give me a copy of the information about this spell and let me take a look."
Karsus did not hesitate and gave Garen a knowledge crystal.
The prismatic crystal exuding a cold white halo contains the Ascension Technique, a forbidden spell that was feared by the gods in the main timeline.
Garen picked up the knowledge crystal and closed his eyes slightly.
His spirit was immersed in it and he began to observe the information and materials on the art of ascension.
The exquisite magic design, accumulated layer by layer, with endless runes and magic circuits nested inside each other, is like a vast starry sky, slowly rotating and changing all the time.
At first glance, Garen's magical attainments seem obscure and difficult to understand.
But the first moment he saw it, Garen had a clear feeling.
This spell has the terrifying effect of taking away divine power.
A few minutes later.
The silver dragon opened its eyes, and the Grand Arcanist's mature face with a hint of vicissitudes of life was reflected in its platinum dragon pupils.
"Unconsciously, your magical attainments have surpassed mine."
Gallon said.
Being surpassed by Karthus in the magic field did not make Garen feel depressed. On the contrary, he felt relieved that his game of developing a great arcanist was now over.
Karsus fully grew up as he wished.
Under the shadow of Garon's dragon wings, Karsus looked up at the dragon and solemnly said: "I will never forget your original teachings, teacher. Without you, I would not be where I am now."
The silver dragon stretched out its claws that covered the sky, and gently touched the head of the great arcanist like it had done when Karsus was a child.
The dragon's claws can be retracted at the first touch.
Garon said to Karsus: "You only have one chance to cast a spell that can take away the power of the gods."
"No matter whether you succeed or not, you will attract the hostility of the gods."
"Are you mentally prepared for this?"
Karsus nodded and said seriously: "I understand the consequences."
He showed a ruthless look on his face and said: "But as long as we can eliminate the Felin Demon Sun and let Nether's future be bright, it will be worth it."
Karsus still remembers how his heart felt like it was being burned by fire when he was defeated and mocked by the Demon Sunflower King.
at the same time.
The silver dragon shook his head and said to Karsus: "No, you are wrong."
Karsus was slightly stunned, not knowing why.
He looked at Galen, waiting for the next step.
Under the gaze of Karthus, Garen said calmly: "The phaerimms have never been Nether's true enemy. Compared with the one who planned Netheril, the phaerimms are insignificant. They are just a
piece."
Karthus frowned.
"The real enemy?"
Garen raised a finger, pointed at the sky, and whispered: "The Lord of the End of All Things."
When he heard this name, Karsus' pupils shrank.
Apparently, he had heard of this god of death.
Felin Demon Kui and the Lord of the End of All Things are not existences on the same level at all. The gap between the two is like a chasm.
"how so?"
"Why does a powerful god want to destroy Netheril?"
Garen said calmly: "Then you have to ask Iolum. The immortality technique he created has allowed a large number of great arcanists to become immortal and escape the end of death. This seriously challenged the authority of the Lord of the End of All Things.
.”
"He will not rest until all the great arcanists of Netheril give up immortality."
Karthus himself can also cast immortality.
He knew the importance of this spell to Netherese.
If it weren't for the Grand Arcanists who maintained their human bodies and minds, this country would not have grown to what it is today, and trying to get the Grand Arcanists to give up the art of immortality would be tantamount to killing them directly.
"I see."
Karsus's expression became heavy.
Immediately, his eyes moved slightly and he said to Garen: "Then, targeting the God of Death to launch the Ascension Technique seems to be the best choice."
Jia Long nodded and said: "This point needs to be considered in the long term."
After a pause, Garen broke the news again that Karsus couldn't believe.
"By the way, don't think about seeking revenge from the Demon Sunflower King."
"Why?"
Karsus looked puzzled.
In Karsus' education, Garen had always encouraged revenge, so he was a little confused when he heard Garen's words.
"Because the King of Demon Sunflowers is the King of Arcanists of Nether."
"Iolum transformed into the Felin Demon Sunflower and has secretly taken charge of the Demon Sunflower Domain."
"Now, it's time to stop the war."
Karsus was silent for a while, then sighed and said to Garen: "Teacher, how many things do you still have that I don't know? Can you tell me them all at once?"
The silver dragon waved its claws, pretending to be mysterious, and said in a low voice: "There are still many things you don't know, but I will only let you know when the time is right."
Karthus shrugged, already somewhat used to it.
Suddenly, he said in confusion: "If he is the King of Arcanists, why would he declare a challenge to me?"
Jia Long said confidently: "I think you took the wrong path at that time, so I asked him to help you correct it. The effect was remarkable."
Karsus' brows were knitted together, his face was numb, and he really didn't know what to say.
"All right."
"Then do I still want to thank you, teacher."
Karsus glared at the silver dragon and gritted his teeth.
Garen waved his dragon claws, laughed and said, "There's no need to thank you. This is what a teacher should do."
Karsus covered his face and let out a long sigh.
He felt that he had sighed more times today than in his entire life.
"I see that the Ascension Technique requires some special materials. Have you collected them?"
Garen said to Karthus.
To perform the art of ascending to the gods, you need the stomach pouch of the ancient golden dragon, the blood of the Tarrasque beast, the bile of the twelve-headed snake lizard, and other materials... none of which are easy to obtain.
of.
Karsus replied: "I only lack the stomach pouch of the ancient golden dragon."
"The Ancient Golden Dragon basically lives on the Dragon Island deep in the Sea of Fallen Stars. There are too many powerful legendary dragons there, which are not easy to obtain."
Galen nodded lightly and said, "I can help you obtain this material."
"As for you, your mission is to simulate and familiarize yourself with the art of ascension, so that you can successfully seize the power of the God of Death in one go."
The art of ascending to the gods is very complicated and obscure.
The first time he saw its information, Garen was certain that it was most likely the most complex twelve-ring spell in history. Garen felt that it would take at least several years for him to fully master it.
Karsus, the creator of the spell, also needs a certain amount of time to prepare if he wants to successfully cast it at one time.
"good."
Karthus nodded.
Immediately.
"I have some plans to deal with the God of Death, and it's time to tell you."
Gallon said.
"Please tell me."
Garen shook his head and said: "I plan to go to the Falling Star Sea now and tell you about someone else."
As he spoke, he called the goddess of magic in his heart.
The moment he heard Garen's call, extraordinary divine power descended upon him.
The incarnation of Missriel crossed the space and came to the quiet canyon.
at the same time.
Karsus, who saw Mythril again, looked at this beautiful incarnation of the goddess of magic with somewhat complicated eyes, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Should I call you sister, Miss, or the noble goddess of magic?"
After a while, Karsus exhaled and said to the smiling Missriel.
Missriel said softly: "You have to ask yourself, Karsus."
Karsus was silent for a while, and finally a smile broke out on his face. He stepped forward, hugged Miss Riel as he did when he was a child, and said, "Long time no see, sister Miss."
The goddess of magic did not refuse the hug.
She held Karsus in her arms, brushed her white fingers through the Grand Arcanist's hair, and whispered, "Karsus, you have finally grown up."
If this scene were seen by believers of the goddess of magic, I don't know how many beliefs would collapse.
The gentle embrace only lasted a few seconds before Karthus let go of his arms.
at the same time.
A pair of huge eyes blinked, and the silver dragon eating melon at a close distance stared at each person without taking his eyes away.
Karsus felt a little uncomfortable when Garen looked at him. The great arcanist's face was slightly red, but the goddess of magic had a calm and indifferent expression, with a faint smile hanging on the corner of her mouth.
"Teacher, it's time for you to go to Dragon Island."
Karthus said to Garen.
Garen clicked his tongue, shook his head and said, "You start to think that I, as a teacher, is an eyesore? Karsus, I'm so sad that I raised you so big in vain."
Said it was sad.
But look at the narrow gaze of the silver dragon, where is there a hint of sadness?
He was obviously just watching the excitement.
As he said that, the Garonne dragon spread its wings.
In the fierce wind, the silhouette of the silver dragon disappeared into the long river of time. When it reappeared, it had reached the Sea of Falling Stars, which was thousands of kilometers away.
Gallon easily found the location of Faerenlong Island.
Just like many main material worlds, it is located in the sea hidden by the magic array.
When this huge silver dragon, about seventy meters long, was discovered, the Metal Dragon Island here boiled like boiling water, and the Ancient Golden Dragon King of Dragon Island came out to greet him personally.
The Silver of Disaster.
This mysterious dragon, which became famous thousands of years ago, has long been known to many real dragons.
Now that he saw his true form, many giant dragons looked at him with respect.
We are both dragons, so we know what the concept of a giant dragon of more than 70 meters is. The ancient golden dragon king in Dragon Island who is more than 2,000 years old is less than 50 meters long. Compared with Gallon, the gap between a child and an adult is
.
This one is probably a demigod dragon.
The legendary dragon realized this at the same time when he first saw Garen and noticed the unfathomable power of the dragon.
Under the leadership of the giant dragon here, Garen began to enjoy the experience of visiting Dragon Island, and was not in a hurry, leaving his disciples with more time alone with Miss Riel.
"Senior, I wonder where you are from?"
"I heard about your deeds thousands of years ago."
Above Dragon Island, the ancient golden dragon spoke to Garen with a respectful tone.
Garen smiled and said casually: "It's just the material world that's not worth mentioning."
It's too troublesome to explain the origin, so it's better to just perfunctory it.
The ancient golden dragon knew what was interesting and did not ask further questions.
After chatting on Dragon Island for a while, the Taikoo Golden Dragon asked: "When you came to Dragon Island, do you need help from the dragon here?"
Garen's eyes fell on the ancient golden dragon, and he looked at it carefully.
The ancient golden dragon looked a little hairy in his heart, and felt a little uneasy.
"I do have something that I need help from a golden dragon."
"Please tell me."
The Taikoo Golden Dragon bit the bullet and said.
With that said, Garen took out some legendary equipment that he could not use, and said to the Ancient Golden Dragon: "That's right, this requires you to make a small sacrifice. Of course, I won't let your sacrifice be in vain."
after a while.
The silver dragon got what he wanted and left Dragon Island.
Gallon returned to the canyon.
The goddess of magic has not left yet, but communicates with Karsus about the art of ascension, and tells him that if this spell is cast on a powerful god, even if it succeeds, the end of the caster will still be miserable.
The infinite knowledge and power of the gods were beyond what Karsus could bear.
However, this fatal shortcoming is not impossible to make up for. The Arcane Chain, which has been maturely developed in the Nether Empire and the Demon Sun Field, is actually set up for the art of ascending to the gods.
At this time, Karsus had learned about the plan to deal with the Lord of the End of All Things.
Before actually starting to implement it, he needed to ensure that the Ascension Technique could be successfully performed the first time.
In the quiet canyon, the silver dragon was bored, Karsus and the goddess of magic talked and laughed, and time passed quietly.
same year.
The King of Demonic Sunflowers announced a big event.
The phaerim will cease their war on Netheril and free all arcanist captives.
The war that lasted for decades ended just because of the words of the King of Demon Sunflowers, which made many arcanists feel a strong sense of unreality in their hearts.
However, after the absorption magic was no longer activated, the stable flying floating city and the reactivation of the immortality spell made the great arcanists feel the beauty of peace.
As for the reason for the truce......
The King of Demonic Sunflowers found out the cause of death of the cubs in his clan.
The death of the cub of Mo Kui was not due to the abuse of magic by the Nether Empire, but because of the death curse from the Lord of the End of All Things.
Under the leadership of the King of the Demon Kwai, the Felin Demon Kwai family eliminated the followers of the God of Death, and with the help of the King of Arcanists, they developed a spell that could break the curse of the God of Death.
The war was caused by a misunderstanding of the arcanist.
The King of Demon Sunflower held talks with the King of Arcanists afterwards, promised a lot of compensation, and shook hands with the King of Arcanists.
Of course, these are all directed and performed by Iolum.
He has no intention of revealing his identity, even if the war is over.
Other than that.
The King of Arcanists announced that he would retire and stay behind the scenes to protect Netheril.
After the war with the phaerimms ceased, the floating cities resumed operation. As time passed, the arcanists gradually healed the wounds of the war and grew curious about the phaerimms.
After the armistice, the King of the Demon Sunflower expressed his welcome to arcanists to visit the Magic Sunflower Realm deep underground.
Most arcanists would not dare to go.
But arcanists never lacked for daring characters. As time went by, more and more arcanists entered the realm of the magic sun out of curiosity and learned about this powerful race that nearly destroyed Netheril.
As the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting.
The arcanist and the phaerim recognize each other's strength, and they are both experienced spellcasters and share common interests.
After the peaceful exchanges began, due to Iolum's secret promotion, the two forces got along more and more harmoniously. The same Felin demon Kui left the underground where he had lived for a long time, and ascended to the sky at the invitation of the arcanist.
Empty city life.
But the peaceful days only lasted for a year.
On a calm afternoon, the announcement from the gods plunged the continent of Faerûn into silence.
"Those who do not fear death will surely face the end of death!"
The Lord of the End of All Things sent down an oracle, Nether's arcane masters used immortality to challenge their own death power, and the phaerim strangled their followers. Both races must pay the price of death for this.
The portals connecting to the Kingdom of Death were activated.
The death army of the Lord of the End of All Things roars towards us.
