"That person's ability is mainly to transform different corpses into various extraordinary materials."
Joseph Bakker said slowly: "For example, the paint used by Amos needs to be ground from the skin of [the loved one]; his spell 'Critical Rifling' needs to be made from the skin of [the enemy] Heartblood; "Bone and Blood Trigger" uses [the same person's bone and blood]; "Dirty Blood Bullet" is a consumable made from the liver of an extraordinary person... "
... It sounds like it's not particularly powerful.
Feeling like a plus size transmutation wizard...
Annan muttered silently in his heart.
But he didn't say that.
It's not that I don't care about Joseph Buckle's opinion...
He cares more about the opinion of the bones.
Although he didn't say the three words "Skeletal Lord" directly, he wouldn't be dragged into a nightmare.
But the ghost knows whether this is because of some automatic response enchantment that Mr. Skull has set up here, or because he himself can really hear it...
If he himself could hear it, then it would be better for Annan not to express any too strong opinions for the time being.
Annan, however, had some doubts.
"But I heard that that person seems to have existed since the third era..."
Annan asked with some doubts: "And according to my understanding, hundreds of years ago, the current countries were all under the rule of an empire..."
The first one is the knowledge he got from the book written by the suspected Annan ancestor "Gryanznuha Rindong".
The latter one is what he read from the popular science books brought by Salvatore... In the book he saw, the five existing countries were divided by a brutal civil war after the capital of an empire sank from.
- That civil war was called "Blood War".
Hearing this, Joseph Buckle frowned slightly.
"...Lord Lord, have you read the books in Amos's study?"
"Um?"
Annan was a little dazed.
He suddenly remembered.
The books in Amos's study seem to have been left by Joseph Buckle...
Joseph sighed helplessly: "I didn't take those books away because they are useless...
"Because of Gryanznuha Rinwon, he is that believer. Many books he wrote contain that ritual, and he will encourage people to use it."
"fraud?!"
Annan subconsciously raised his voice.
This is a member of the Lin Dong family—
What is he plotting
"He's not actually a member of the Lindong family."
As if he knew what Annan was thinking.
The tall wizard chuckled: "Or, he used to be. But he was expelled and deprived of Lin Dong's surname. But he still uses this name shamelessly... You can actually read the books he wrote. Take it as a read. At least the writing is good, and it's still fun to read.
"As for the empire you just mentioned..."
His expression became a little more serious: "I think what you are talking about is the Arthurian Empire.
"The Arthuran Empire is indeed very old. But he is not the only ruler in this world... It used to be called the Oser Empire, which came from the eastern desert area and was an empire ruled by the centaurs and elves. Until two epochs ago, It has always been in the desert to the east.
"Later, the Disaster of the Epoch happened. Some Orther people fled westward and launched a war of aggression... and easily seized the entire territory of Yaseran and established the Yaseran Empire. At that time, we were not called human beings, but ' Arthurian'."
"The disaster of the era?"
Annan tilted his head and asked softly.
"Well, this is the way we transcendents use to distinguish the era."
Probably seeing that Annan is a new superhuman, Joseph simply started from the beginning: "The righteous gods can't deal with the backlog of curses all the time, and the accumulated curses will cause some 'accidents', some... natural disasters that can change all civilizations Like an accident.
"For example, the desert came alive and became a huge intelligent creature; another example, one-third of the Arthurian Empire suddenly sank, forming the current Arthurian Sea.
"But actually, there are some things that mortals are not clear about. That is the beginning of the Fifth Epoch, not marked by the 'sinking of the Yaseland Empire'... Although the old empire was great, it is not yet worthy of changing the entire civilization process.
"The real sign is the destruction of the Great Barrier."
"...Didn't the Great Barrier be shattered because of the sinking of the Yaselan Empire?"
"of course not."
Joseph laughed out loud: "The fire of order has always been controlled by the Orthodox Church. What's the matter with the Yaselan Empire? With the capital sinking like this, all elves and most of the centaurs living in the capital of the empire were suddenly wiped out. , In addition to making the true gods look like Yaslan people... Has it affected the church
"They are still the twelve true gods unique to this world, whether it is in the world west of the desert or in the world east of the desert. The gray fog cannot isolate the power of the gods..."
… yes.
indeed so…
Annan recalled.
According to the history books he read, the Great Barrier was broken "because the Church of the Twelve Gods fell apart".
But thinking about it now...
Why is the church falling apart all of a sudden
"Because of the end of the Fourth Era, the true sign..."
Joseph explained: "It's just that the enchantment is no longer permanent.
"In the past, the enchantment could be sustained by the power of the gray mist extracted by the true god; but now it needs to burn the power of the true god to maintain it. For example, the Silver Sir and the old grandmother are stronger and can maintain the enchantment alone... and like It is the red knight and the mysterious lady, they must be united to maintain the enchantment.
"This is not announced, just to avoid the impact and avoid causing panic. And the history books do not write about other eras, because our five countries today are actually based on the foundation of the Arthurian Empire in the fourth era. Up.
"The knowledge of the third era and before is completely unimportant and unnecessary to be known by ordinary people. The population of elves and centaurs is very small, and they can only occupy a small piece of territory, and the rest must be sealed off …For example, the former Principality of Mourning Song has been ruled by them since the third era. It’s just that they were still a kingdom at that time…
"In other words—or at least in our research, the shattering of the Great Barrier may be the result of a discussion between the true gods. Anyway, the Yaselan Empire has sunk, and it will continue to cover the entire Yaselan... That is to say, the area including the sea of Yaselan is too much of a waste of power. It is better to divide the barrier and protect a piece of land by one person, and it can last for a longer time."
Hearing this, Annan fully understood.
Why did the book written by Gryanznuha say that Lord Skull had a very good relationship with Granny Buried in the previous era, but he was demoted as an evil god in this era...
He was the evil god from the very beginning.
Because he was a believer of Granny Buried in the last century—of course he has a good relationship with Granny Buried.
And the earliest can be traced back to the Tertiary Epoch... and it is true. Because what constitutes the Duke of Bones is the history and corpses of the entire Principality of Sangsong, and these have been born since the third era.
What Gryaznuha said was indeed true. Even if you use a lie detector to detect, you can only get the statement that "it is the truth".
But the contents inside are all farting.
He was just intentionally whitewashing the skeleton man...
However, this enchantment maintained by the burning power of the true god... gave Annan a bad sense of déjà vu.
Why does it feel so similar to a suffering game
