After thinking about it, Lester still didn't ask about the Icathia Destruction Mage. After all, his inheritance was in his hands. If Jax, who missed his homeland, suddenly asked for it from him, it would be really difficult for him to handle it.
, you can’t return the [Dark Seal] that you have cultivated for a long time to Jax.
Not knowing that the guy who inherited the legacy of a certain destruction mage from his hometown was right in front of him, Jax said in a deep voice.
"In this way, amidst the dissatisfaction of the Icathians, the Shurima people ruled Icathia for hundreds of years. Icathia tried to integrate itself into the Shuriman Empire. After several battles, Aicathia
Cassia wants to make her country's bravest soldiers become Ascendants of Shurima.
As long as Icathia's warriors pass the [Ascension Ceremony] and become a member of the [Ascended Group], Icathia's national status can be improved.
Having your own Ascended One deliberately prevents Icathia's own citizens from being bullied by others. Unfortunately, the Shurima Empire never agreed to this humblest and simple request. The imperial royal family just squeezed everything out of Icathia as it should, and used
The servant army formed by the Icathians is used as consumables on the battlefield. In their view, the death of a thousand Icathians is not worth letting the omnipotent Ascendants take action once, even if it is just to relieve themselves.
, they are also more willing to let a thousand Icathians die.
Resistance, compromise, and even numbness have no effect at all. Icathia is still Icathia, a slave country bullied and dominated by the Shurima Empire. Fortunately, although the backbone has been broken, the flame of the will to resist has never been extinguished.
Sejax, who inherited hatred, is extremely talented. No matter what weapons or combat concepts he learns, he can quickly integrate them and master them thoroughly. He does not get lost in the praise of the people around him, but instead studies more diligently.
He seeks all the knowledge that can make him powerful, and seeks an unrealistic method that will allow Icathia to defeat the Shurima Empire.
The clan elders of Icathia, the weapons masters of Shurima, and even the Yuentar in the rainforest kingdom [Ixtal] who are also dominated by the Shurima Empire (Ixtal controls the rule of the original justice)
Class), all of them are Sejax's teachers. Unfortunately, Sejax, who has fighting and learning talents, does not have magic talent. This is the only thing Sejax regrets. He can't even use his hands.
Make a fire."
Jax looked at the four eyes on the left side of his face, and Lester shrugged helplessly. In order to prevent the roasted rabbit legs from turning into carbon rabbit legs, he had to put the roasted rabbit legs that started to shed oil on the wooden branches into his mouth.
"The turning point came when Sejax was twenty-three years old.
A frightening earthquake occurred in the southwestern coastal province [Saabola]. The earth cracked open, and the living villagers conveyed the news to the elders of the Icathia Committee with the pain of their lost relatives.
I heard that there was some kind of extraordinary dark power under the cracked ground. The elders who were fascinated by the power sent a team of mages to Saabola to investigate the things underground. As the most powerful person in Icathia,
One of the young warriors, Sejax successfully became one of the guards of the mage group."
He also tore off a rabbit leg. Jax bit the rabbit meat with several incomplete purple teeth and continued.
"The mage investigation team quickly found the location of the crack in the ground. It was a small village close to the inland. The grief of the deceased relatives had not yet dissipated from the village, so the investigation team came to the crack in the ground.
The crack in the ground is like a huge funnel. The deeper it goes, the smaller it becomes. However, no matter how narrow it is, it is still enough for a dozen people to pass side by side, like an endless abyss...
After traveling downward for more than half an hour, the mage group discovered that the chaotic magic elements could no longer provide stable lighting. They speculated that the power in the cracks in the ground could suppress the magic elements. All the mages became excited, because this meant that as long as they were used properly,
, this mysterious power is likely to become a fatal weapon to defeat the powerful magic of the Ascended One,
Without powerful magic, no matter how powerful the Ascended One is, he is just a mortal... This is what everyone thinks.
Looking at the companions around him who suddenly became fanatical, Sejax felt uneasy in his heart. He had only seen such emotions on the faces of those crazy black mages, and should not appear on the faces of the rational white mages and
A determined warrior.
After a brief discussion, the investigation team made more than a dozen torches using local materials, clothes and readily available grease, and continued to explore downwards.
The investigation team soon arrived under the crack in the ground. The dark purple rock that they had never seen before shone with an unsettling light. A dark crack about one meter long and twenty centimeters wide was located between the purple rock.
Below, a strange power rises from the cracks in the form of burning flames, exuding lavender light...
It's not so much a purple flame, but a purple shadow that squirms like an octopus' tentacles."
Lester calmly swallowed the last piece of barbecue and put down the stick in his hand. He was very interested in the emptiness in Jax's mouth.
Jax was still minding his own business.
"Outside of the purple living shadow, the mages could hardly sense the breath of any magical elements. This discovery made all the mages ecstatic. After many repeated experiments, the mages proved that this group of magic elements came from the purple ground.
The living phantom that rises from the rock cracks has the property of swallowing magic elements. As long as it can obtain a stable enough purple phantom, Icacia can set up a magic-forbidden battlefield and bring the high-ranking ascendants down to the level of ordinary people.
Level, so that the body that is hard to be hurt by swords and hard to be broken by magic is reduced to a mortal body.
As long as there is no omnipotent ascended group, the Icathians will not be afraid of any war... Everyone thinks so. How to bring this purple phantom back to the Icathia Council has become the first problem.
Fortunately, the accompanying magician thought of using the magic crystal that came with the torch staff to forcibly construct an elemental shield and use the elements to imprison the purple phantom.
As long as they feed the purple phantom with enough magic elements, they can use the torch staff to transfer this magical energy. In fact, they did it and successfully brought the evil thing from the abyss to Ai
In front of the elders of the Cassia Council, the evil living creature and the power it represented had their own unique name."
"Void."
The indifferent words drifted away in the wind, and Lester's voice echoed in the vibrant cloud forest. For a moment, the chirping of insects and birds in Jax's ears dimmed. Deep in the forest, he
It was as if I could see the culprits who destroyed Icathia again.
It was a deep purple void, filled with powerful void monsters, vowing to slaughter the entire world.
"...That's right, void."
After eating, Jax put on the porous iron mask again and wrapped his face with cloth strips.
No matter what Lester himself thinks, Jax himself hates having his face exposed.
It's better to put on a mask to make him feel more at ease.
"By developing and studying the power of the void, Icacia's mages determined that the void has the special ability to swallow magic elements and guide matter to mutate. This unknown power is obviously too dangerous, but no one cares about this, because some mages claimed
He can communicate with the void. As long as he performs the ritual according to the steps of the void, the void will fall from the sky and help the people of Icathia defeat the Shurima Empire's army.
Although Sejax had a bad premonition when he came into contact with the Void, the hatred in his heart for the Shurima Empire still made him have a lucky mentality. Even if the [Void] is uncontrollable, as long as he can defeat the Ascended Ones
, to free Icathia from the rule of the Shurima Empire, in Sejax's view, it is worth paying some casualties, because the people of Icathia have been waiting for too long, too long, and many of them cannot hold back.
The heroes who continued to look on gave their lives."
"Soon, Sejax was consumed with hatred for the Shurima Empire.
Icathia obtained the power of the void, and the Council began further purge operations.
First, a respected mage elder was re-elected as the new mage king of Ikasia, and then Kauali who defended the mage king was re-established.
Then, in the name of "resisting the invaders", he killed most of the Shurima people in Icathia, and also eliminated those traitors who surrendered to Shurima. Sejax was immersed in the victory.
In joy, with the help of Koali, Sejax used his powerful martial arts to kill a proud and complacent Ascended One.
The Ascended Shurima Empire who was dominating in the border city [Beyzek] became a corpse. No news can be more inspiring than the great fact of 'an Ascendant corpse parading'.
All Icathians are crazy. Everyone dreams of breaking free from the slavery and oppression of the Shurima Empire and longs to rebuild the glory of ancient Icathia.
There is no doubt that such a move completely angered the Shurima Empire. The Ascension Group arrived as scheduled, and the Icathia villages along the way that had not yet had time to evacuate were bleeding like rivers under the massacre of the Shurima Legion.
The war entered the most brutal stage from the very beginning. Sejax and his brothers, the Cauaris, fought in the northern wilderness. The blood dyed the land into scarlet clay. If you fished it, you could easily catch the blood drops.
As more and more soldiers died in Icacia, the war ahead was on the verge of collapse. The archmage in charge of the power of [Void] obtained the consent of Elder Kauali. Several mages began to set up the crystal array according to Void's instructions.
Instill your own power into the void at the core of the magic circle."
Picking up the lamppost that never left his hand, Jax seemed to be able to see the dim firelight inside the sealed lamppost.
That was the hope in his heart.
More than two thousand years have passed, and only the [Eternal Flame] that was born when the void disappeared is still alive. Although he does not know what this immortal flame is, he knows that this flame can annihilate the energy of the void.
It is the most powerful weapon against void creatures.
The fact that he can live from two thousand years ago to the present has a lot to do with the eternal flame.
"Maybe centuries have passed, or maybe it's just a breath of time, and the disaster has struck without warning.
At the moment when the formation took effect, a dark purple light pillar penetrated the sky and shot into the deep space. With the formation as the core, the light that split all matter tore apart the earth, and the mage who presided over the formation was brought with his magic.
The crystal is instantly annihilated,
Immediately afterwards, there was a terrifying ray falling from the sky that directly penetrated the surface of the earth, from the distant star realm to the abyss cracks in Saabola. The underground cracks exposed by the earthquake exploded directly.
The passage in the void was completely opened, and countless purple shadows, like catkins and dandelions, spewed out from the cracks in the broken Saabola abyss, flew to the sky, and spread across the entire Ikasia as if they had self-awareness.
soil of,
All creatures contaminated by the void have undergone extremely terrifying mutations. Whether they are birds, animals, flowers, birds, fish, insects, or humans, any living creature that touches the void quickly changes into the form of a deformed monster, and because of this,
Insects have the most powerful survivability and fighting capabilities. After the fight, most insect-type void creatures survived and gained more powerful attack and thinking abilities. Void creatures transformed by humans cannot resist the attacks of insect creatures at all.
, all died soon, and in the evolutionary war in the void, mankind was completely defeated."
I don't know if I can nod, but Lester didn't answer.
Sighing, Jax's body stooped a little.
"On the battlefield, even the omnipotent Ascendants witnessed the terrifying scene of their companions being infected by the void. After killing most of the Ascended ones, those high-ranking Ascended warriors abandoned the mortals and Shurima legions.
The mage escaped from the land of Icathia alone. What is ridiculous is that the Icathians won the anti-invasion war, but lost the entire country and the people who loved her.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In less than a day, the land of Icathia was reduced to a nest of void creatures. If there were not Ascended people who resisted the void organization's defense line, I would have even been forgiven.
The Rhima Empire and Ixtar cannot escape the evil hand.
Sejax struggled to escape from the shadows of the void flying in the sky, and relied on his superb combat skills to avoid the attacks of void creatures. Even so, he was eroded by the power of the void, and his life gradually withered on the road to mutation.
Later, even the void creatures considered him a companion and stopped attacking Sejax."
Jax lowered his head, looked at his three ugly purple fingers, and his voice became a little lower.
"He came to the deep pit that summoned the void with self-reproach. Looking at the devastation, he recalled the first void he saw in the underground cracks of Saabola. He took out the dagger with difficulty. The dagger
Reflecting his ugly face, he pressed the dagger in front of his throat and wanted to end his life in repentance. He did not want to become a void monster. He wanted to atone for his sins in the simplest way.
He is no longer a warrior, he is just a coward.
He regretted that he had not listened to his intuition and left the mages affected by the Void and the Void under the cracks that could not see the light of day. He regretted that he had not stopped the investigation team halfway and allowed the investigation team to put the Void in front of the elders of the council.
, he regretted that he could not save all this earlier, he regretted that he had the ability to prevent it all, but watched it happen, and ultimately ruined the entire Icacia..."
There was silence for about three minutes. Seeing that Jax was still immersed in unspeakable sadness, Lester lowered his eyes and took the initiative to take Jax's ugly right hand and hold the dark purple rough fingers.
Jax's body trembled, and he looked in disbelief at the man who took the initiative to hold his right hand. The lamppost in his left hand fell to the ground with a pop, without even realizing it.
