Chapter 419: Netheril Is Dead

"Who is your master?"

Tang Sen asked.

"I can't tell you." Seeing Tang Sen about to swing his sword again, the figure named Dahuang quickly emphasized: "This is really impossible!"

"Okay." Tang Sen did not force it and continued to ask: "No matter who he is, thousands of years have passed and this place has been abandoned—"

"No, my master will come back." Da Huang said.

Tang Sen raised his eyebrows: "Is that why you have been maintaining this mage tower and this demiplane?"

"This is the responsibility entrusted to me by the master when he left." Dahuang paused: "But this does not mean that I will be threatened by you. Everything in the Mage Tower belongs to the master. Intruder, you must leave!"

"Your master will not come back." Tang Sen said calmly.

"This has nothing to do with you." Dahuang responded quickly.

Tang Sen ignored him and just said: "Netheril has died, all the great arcanists have disappeared, and even the era has been changed. This demiplane will soon fall into the void. What you are guarding None of this makes any sense."

"Netheril -" Dahuang repeated the term, and the tone that had always been smooth and smooth appeared unusually dull: "Dead?"

"It seems you don't know." Tang Sen nodded: "But that's not important -"

"This is very important!" Dahuang interrupted Tang Sen, "I need to confirm this news. I don't think the Felin Demon Sunflower can destroy Netheril."

Tang Sen's heart moved and he narrowed his eyes.

He had heard of creatures like the phaerimm, and Netheril was indeed worried about this creature for a while, but that was before the destruction of Netheril.

Then he turned to look at Cuixi: "It seems that our friend has not heard from the outside world for a long time. Why don't you explain it to him."

Cui Xi understood and said: "The year 3520. I am talking about the almanac of Netheril. In this year, the great great arcanist Iolum disappeared, and the whole of Netheril fell into panic. "

"My master left the Mage Tower in search of the great Iolum." Dahuang interjected: "This is not an easy task, but he will definitely succeed. He asked me to protect his knowledge and property."

"It seems that your master has a close relationship with the great arcanist Iolum." Tang Sen said.

Da Huang was silent for a moment, probably because it was rare to get news from the outside world, or for other reasons, he finally revealed something: "My master is a disciple of the great Iolum."

Tang Sen suddenly understood.

No wonder, there is news about Iolum's immortality technique here.

He didn't know the specific information about this spell, but what he was certain of was that it must have been created by Iolum, and it was related to the means of immortality - during the Netherese period, all the great arcanists had nearly infinite lives. Used to study magic, and they are not transformed into lichs.

On the contrary, after the fall of Netheril, spellcasters wanted to live forever, and lich was the most common method.

Cui Xi looked at Tang Sen and saw that he did not continue to ask questions, so she continued: "Obviously, the threat of the Felin Demon Kui and the disappearance of Iolum have brought the entire situation in Netheril to the edge of mutiny. "

"At this time, another great arcanist, Karthus, felt an extremely heavy burden on his shoulders. That was the future of Netheril."

"Karsus, my master mentioned this name. The new floating city he built attracted the attention of many people. He once praised that Karsus may be the most talented great arcanist after Iolum. ." Dahuang said.

"Yes, that's what history says." Cui Xi enjoys the feeling of telling stories for others, and the special object is an inhuman existence. This is simply like the adventure stories she has read.

She continued: "Karsus decided to try her best to revive the country from danger, so she created a spell after years of research."

"A unique twelve-ring spell."

"This is impossible!" Dahuang immediately retorted: "The limit of the spell is eleventh ring! That is already close to the power of a god, and twelve rings is already a god."

"That's right." Cui Xi did not refute, but said in agreement: "My teacher thinks so too, but Karsus did succeed, and that spell does belong to the realm of the gods."

"The name of that spell is - Incarnation of Karthus."

There was longing on Cui Xi's face: "This spell can temporarily steal the power of a god. Karsus chose the goddess of magic Mythril, so the sacred power rushed in from all directions. His mind It was filled with incredible knowledge, but at that moment, he also realized what a terrible thing he had done.”

"Mythril's duties require her to use her powers to regulate and repair the Weave, as it is often damaged by the misuse of magic by the great arcanists of Netherese, and when Mythril loses her ability to let the magic After the net was able to maintain stability, magical energy suddenly overflowed, surging and rising and falling in disorder. "

Dahuang listened to all this quietly and did not interrupt like before.

So Trish continued: "In order to protect the Demonic Network, Mythril sacrificed herself before the situation got out of control. Only in this way could she cut off the connection with Karsus and seal the Demonic Network at the same time. net."

Tracy took a deep breath: "So, magic disappeared for a short time."

"Without the support of magic power, Netheril's floating cities fell one after another, and Karsus was quickly swallowed by death and fell to the ground."

"Although the goddess of magic was reborn quickly and rebuilt the order of the magic network, everything was irreversible. The glory of the Netheril Empire standing in the sky was destroyed. In order to avoid such a tragedy from happening again, the goddess of magic imposed some restrictions on the magic network."

"Most of the tenth-ring spells, and all spells above the tenth ring are no longer allowed to be used, including all Spells created by the archmages of Netheril."

"So... that's it." Da Huang spoke slowly: "No wonder most of the defenses that the master arranged in the Mage Tower failed, so that even a lich could invade the Mage Tower."

"Lich?"

Tang Sen grasped the key words: "Are you talking about the previous invader? Who is he?"

Da Huang did not answer this question. He turned to Tang Sen with his face without facial features and said: "I am very grateful for your news about Netheril. Maybe the master will never come back."

"The master's legacy needs someone to inherit it."
