The Lord Lord gave an order, and the entire gray stone castle immediately moved up and down.

Soon, the matron of the New Temple of Judgment Saints, Drevlan, and the new president of the Dark Brotherhood, Astrid, arrived at the Graystone Castle one after another.

The vital props he carried were also released in the castle hall under triple protection.

The obsidian shell is like a twisted giant egg that contains evil intentions. It is full of evil beauty from the plane of annihilation. Wu Chen has a feeling that the so-called obsidian shell is probably the incubator of the whispering goddess Mephala, used to hatch those huge spiders.

Monster. Even if it was brought to the world by an unknown demon or demon, this obsidian shell is still quite active. As for its function, it is used to create and control various shadow realms. This made Wu Chen think

The Protoss (Protoss) Crystal Tower (Pylon) in "StarCraft". The construction of Protoss buildings can only be carried out within the scope of the crystal tower. The same is true for this obsidian shell. As long as it is within the shadow field it releases

, you can obtain Mephala's "magic (god) power charge". Warriors who believe in Mephala will be given magical agility and strength. It is easy to understand that they will lose their minds, because their own consciousness has also been invaded by magic.

and corrosion.

On the other hand, the Blade of Sorrow in Astrid's hand seemed bland and unremarkable.

The function of this magical artifact is similar to the ebony rock blade that can cut through magic barriers. It is both used to cut through the obsidian "eggshell" that contains evil intentions when necessary.

The biggest difference from the Protoss Crystal Tower is that the hollow obsidian shell seems to be able to connect to Mephala's domain and obtain part of Mephala's "essence" from the plane of annihilation.

To put it simply, this is an "interdimensional ovipositor".

It is said that the "Shadow Conduit" skill of the Spider Cult leader Vera Seran, who has mastered advanced Shadow Magic, seems to have the effect of stimulating the power of annihilation.

Another powerful skill of Vera Seran is "Growing Corruption", which will create an ever-expanding shadow field around her, and immersion in it will cause continuous huge damage. Therefore, based on various known information,

Coupled with the insight from Lord Lord's psychic perspective, a relatively credible judgment of "an interdimensional ovipositor" was reached.

"Shadow Magic", also known as "Shadow Magic". It is an obscure but extremely powerful magic. It is believed that Azra Nightwielder, the Night Dancer, was the first to use this magic, and he was the first to discover it.

"Shadow is not just a manifestation of the lack of light, but also a reflection of the possible world created by two conflicting forces." Shadows can be struck by earthly forces, such as light falling on rocks (material shadows), or by

More powerful forces such as the war between the two countries (spiritual shadow).

Shadow magic includes the power to influence the composition of shadows through the manipulation of shadows. Through this, shadow magic can even rival the power of "The Elder Scrolls" itself. Through the manipulation of shadows, one has the ability to change the past, present and

Future potential (understood by combining 'Dream of the Godhead' and 'Nightmare of Annihilation'). The power of shadow magic can backfire on the caster himself, so shadow mages are often questioned for this. Shadow magic is used in Hammerfell, Skyrim, and High Rock.

It is very common in the border areas, but few people actually use it. In the Second Age, this magic was widely used by a kind of people called "Nightblades". They can use shadows to merge into shadow equipment, such as

Shadow Bayonets, Shadow Gloves, and Shadow Rings. Shadows can also be absorbed to enhance the abilities of the caster's mind, although this may have physical and mental side effects, such as the experience of being outside of the body, distorted senses, and atrophy of the skin.

Likewise, shadows can be infused into the body, magically increasing a person's strength, speed, or endurance. In both cases, when the shadow and shadow mage's consciousnesses merge together, the caster's consciousness gradually fades away. Despite these

As a benefit, shadow magic can distort and corrupt creatures, turning them into "An echo of what's right".

Another use of shadow magic is to create decorative objects, such as statues. It is also possible to link the shadows of people together, allowing communication over long distances, although the process is painful. Night Dancer Azra calls this

It is "Umbric Connection". Night Blade uses the shadow magic "Step Through Shadows" to teleport short distances or consume the life force of others. Another famous application of shadow magic is to create "

"Shadow Gates". Shadow Gates are a kind of magic barrier, mostly used to protect treasures. They can only be passed through with "Shadow Keys". Currently, only 11 Shadow Keys have been discovered. Shadows can be absorbed at the same time to strengthen them.

Will, or combined into legendary artifacts, such as the Shadow Stabber, a knife created from shadows.

Shadow Mages can use shadow magic to visit the Shadow Realms, an extended version of the present world, to help different versions of themselves. Likewise, Shadow Mages can summon different versions of themselves into their world.

Death in the Shadow Plane is the only way to terminate the connection. Night Dancer Azra attempts to manipulate his own shadow so that he can merge with all possible versions of himself, from a single existence to existing in all shadows

(The path to dimensionality that merges the shadows of all planes into one). Unfortunately, he suddenly disappeared after the battle with the Red Guard soldiers, and his experiment did not yield any results. When he disappeared,

Other shadow mages competed to take their place and continue to study the science of shadow, including Pergan Asuul and Skelos Undriel.

During The Imperial Simulacrum in 3E 397, shadow magic played a central role in the War of the Bend'r-mahk. Much of the conflict was fought against Umbragi.

The most famous nightingales in the history of Tamriel are Jag'Thaln and Evil.

The shadow mage Pegan Ashur fights for control of the monster. In The Soul of Conflict, an unsung hero guides Shigru Andre and the night dancer Azra

Upon his return, Star Teeth killed Umbragene.

How to understand shadow magic can only be combined with the great discovery of the Dwemer dwarves: the essence of the earth bone Enofi is the corpse of the dead Idra. The so-called "Eight Holy Spirits" are actually the reflections of the corpses of eight powerful Idra.

Combined with the fact that the Lord's five-star apostles are "projections of the gods in the real world" of their respective beliefs, and Mephala's incarnation "Death Girl" invades the real world of Nirn with a "nightmare of annihilation plane", it is easy to understand.

Scientifically speaking, the "shadow" is the "nightmare superposition" of Nirn's opposite side (dark matter and dark spirit).

Soon, all preparations for the ceremony were in place.
