There is a reason why Milo chose this area. A large part of the people living here are already employed in special spellcasting professions such as Dry Lich.
Drylich, like most lichs, has an existence called a phylactery.
However, for this kind of phylactery, Milo prefers to call it [Canopic Jar], which contains the internal organs of Mina Yin. Theoretically speaking, as long as the [Canopic Jar] exists intact, Drought Witch can
The demon can be resurrected continuously, and most drought lichs, while maintaining a skinny, skeleton-like humanoid appearance, generally use something like snow salt or gauze to cover their withered muscles.
This unique shape makes Milo prefer to call this kind of spellcaster [Munayin].
When he sensed this profession, Milo knew that Drought Lich was not born in this sky, but that its origin was born in a lonely, dying, desolate sky with the belief in Mulhorand's divine system.
This creature from Fang Tianyu used all available resources to finally create such a strange profession.
Therefore, the employment requirements for this profession are very strange. They may not necessarily be researchers of magic, but they may also be priests of the Mulhorand divine system.
In the desert environment, their power is considered to be among the first-rate casters, but once they leave the desert, most of their abilities will be greatly reduced, and they are the kind of existence that can only survive in the desert.
The reason why they believe in [Osiris] is because this god of medium divine power is the only one in the Mulhorand pantheon who has the face of Mina Yin, and his full name is Nature.
Lord, Judge of the Dead, White Crown, Reaper of the Harvest and Patron Saint of the Dead. In his heyday, he was in charge of several priesthoods of plants, death, the dead, justice and harvest. He was one of the few beings willing to protect Drought Lich.
What needs to be explained here is that the relationship between Osiris and the undead, especially Mu Nayin, is complicated. This judge of the dead hates all evil undead creatures with wisdom. Therefore, whether it is Mu Nayin who is voluntarily transformed or accidentally
The born Mu Nayin will be mercilessly destroyed as long as it is touched by this god and his followers.
But what's interesting is that, on the other hand, Osiris is very tolerant of those unintelligent skeletons and zombies, and even allows his believers or priests to lay similar traps in believers' graveyards to target possible tomb robbers.
Phenomenon.
This state lasted until the fall of the second-generation god-king Horus-Re, and the Mulhorandian pantheon entered an unstoppable decline. At that time, the power of Osiris also declined unstoppably.
He began to be willing to protect those dry lichs who were transformed in order to protect their faith and protect the temple, and was willing to grant them some magical skills, so that the dry lich had a more complete inheritance system, and could ensure that the dry lich lived in the temple.
When it is lowered, it will not affect the fertility of the land around the temple and can continue to support some life.
Of course, such an approach, which is close to violating his own teachings, is also a great pressure for Osiris, who is on the decline. He is unstoppably heading towards the inevitable fate of decline.
In the end, Osiris in this side of the sky was united by his brother, the Lord of Evil, the Blasphemer of the Dead, the Lord of Carrion, the Outcast of the Gods, and the King of Resentment [Set], who was also a medium-level god.
Killed by the powerful Shadow Lord [Mask].
The place where Milo gave [Anubis] the shadow was one of the few complete temples of Osiris, and there was even a little bit of the divinity belonging to Osiris left in it.
But the moment the shadow of Anubis fell into the temple, the drought lichs guarding here raised their heads one after another. The strange green light in their empty eyes, the twisted natural power and the extreme solar power were in their eyes.
emerge on the body.
The most powerful arch lich who leads them has a completely different attitude from them. This arch lich, who has begun to explore the path of demigods, has begun to regain luster in his muscles and looks like he has lived in the desert for a long time.
Time is the same as for ordinary people.
But his body is condensed with huge power of death, twisted natural power, and the extremely powerful aura of the sun.
He only needs to walk out of this temple, and the fragile ecological environment and the shrinking oasis outside will collapse instantly.
And if he is willing to go to the Land of Shoulong and fully activate his power, the whole province will be affected by the [Drought] and [Blight] fields. With some special rituals, he can turn into a very special demigod of the Land of Shoulong.
Jingso [Drought Demon].
Of course, according to ancient records, all Drought Liches who had the guts to do this died miserably. Most of them were killed by several high-level legendary professionals and more than a dozen legendary professionals who had just made the move.
Surrounded by them, they turned into ashes and flew away.
Therefore, the great lich in front of him knew very well that his path had come to an end and it was impossible to go any further.
Instead of pursuing the elusive path of being a demigod who masters the [Drought] realm, it is better to protect the tribesmen around the temple, hoping to cross the biggest threshold between mortals and gods as the guardian of the tribe.
Therefore, the point in the temple that maintains the divinity of the surrounding environment is a power that he cares about very much.
Feeling the change in his divinity, the great lich immediately appeared in the core of the temple, under the statue of Osiris.
But just when the great lich was about to teach the ignorant outsiders a lesson, the [Death] realm suddenly appeared in the temple, causing the great lich to pause, and then a gaze fell.
Concepts such as the Order of Death appeared all around, making all Drought Liches except the Arch Lich afraid to move. They looked at the phantom of Anubis that appeared around the statue of Osiris in fear.
The jackal's head made the great lich angry and frightened, and he whispered in a hoarse voice: "Set..."
"I am not Set, but Anubis, the guardian of Minaoyin, the guide of the dead souls and the guardian of the cemetery."
Milo, who controlled the phantom of Anubis, slowly spoke. These three professional titles were partly derived from the gains gained from observing Jergo and the God of Death Okedel, and partly derived from the legacy of Osiris.
Therefore, although these three powers cannot be called domains, let alone clergy, they appear all around in the form of divine-like magic.
As power similar to the radiance of divine power emerged around the temple, all dry lichs felt a sense of tranquility, as if they had received some kind of protection.
But after the great lich felt this power, he did not feel the slightest joy. He just said in a cold voice: "The second expeller of the undead? Accept the essence of the Dragon Land, put down the divinity of my lord, and leave here!"
Milo was stunned for a moment by the unexpected answer. He even spent time communicating with the spirit demigod White Deer, only to learn that there were many stories between the Land of the Dragon and the Mulhorand God System.
For example, the special spirit demigod Hanba, and the undead expeller Youkui mentioned by the great lich in front of him.
Youkui is a spirit demigod transformed from the ancient golden luan, a special magical creature that looks like a chicken. He himself holds a position similar to the god of the ancient golden luan, and has extensive research in the field of [Morning Light].
After the Drought Lich tried to transform into the Drought Demon, Youkui found an opportunity to sneak into the Mulhorand God System, using his attainments in the realm of dawn and some methods with traces of the sun to mislead everyone.
The few remaining believers of the Mulhorand pantheon at that time stole part of the sun's faith, and succeeded in greatly expanding the power of the two realms of [Dusk] and [Guardian] in addition to the morning light, and even nearly destroyed Mulhorand.
Under the remaining beliefs of the Rand pantheon, using certain aspects of the sun as a priest opens the way to becoming a god.
In the end, it is said that it was the Confucius who took action and suppressed the possible problems in Youkui.
Nowadays, although Youkui still has not become a god, he is different from the ordinary demigods who cannot condense the spirit of the priesthood. This undead expeller is a quasi-god. He has accumulated enough divinity and has obtained many achievements in related fields.
With enough authority, you can gather your own clergy at any time.
However, the Lord of the Ancient Golden Luan seems to have been hesitating about his future direction for many years, or he is worried that the priesthood he chooses will be targeted by the Western gods, so he has never dared to try to consolidate the priesthood and start the path to becoming a god.
To put it simply, this essence quasi-god Youkui can be regarded as a legendary existence in the entire land of Shoulong. Unfortunately, his methods are not very bright, so that the relevant information is deliberately hidden by the Master, even for people like Milo.
I have read a lot of books about it, but I don’t know much about it.
Because he didn't know, he naturally wouldn't make any targeted arrangements, so when the great lich began to sneer, Milo didn't know how to answer.
But Milo knew very well what the great lich in front of him really wanted, or what he was really afraid of.
Seeing that the simple Anubis couldn't do it, another phantom of Osiris was condensed and cast. After appearing in front of many drought lichs, it absorbed the divinity in the statue, bestowed the power of death on Anubis, and used the remaining
The divine power corresponding to the harvest and plants was condensed into a scepter, which was also given to Anubis.
In the meantime, Milo even controlled the phantom of Osiris and said bluntly: "Although I gave Minayin protection, I was unable to guide the death power in them to stability. The distorted natural power affects the harvest and the divinity of plants all the time.
, now I separate death and harvest again and give them to you respectively. I hope you can lead this ethnic group to live a stable life."
This process was completely directed and performed by Milo.
But what this process said and what Milo did was not false.
The divinity of Osiris has indeed been distorted under the influence of the Drought Liches. The originally balanced power of death and plants is irresistibly tilted towards death, and the power of the plants within is being distorted.
The specific manifestation is that the oasis near the temple is shrinking. According to Milo's speculation, at most a hundred years, the divine power left by Osiris will be completely distorted, and there will no longer be any life around the temple.
The dry lichs also understand this, so when they see Anubis communicating with Osiris, they purify their divinity and extend the time for hundreds of years. Even if they have doubts in their hearts, they choose
I won't mention it anymore, but give Anubis enough respect.
Milo took advantage of the situation and relied on the power of the scepter to derive some strange plants suitable for desert planting. Most of these plants came from the records in Miao Youtian. The connection with Fang Tianyu was not so close, and it was difficult to reproduce.
But it is just right for the remnants of the Mulhorand pantheon, who are all rejected by the mainstream of Tianyu, so they adapt well.
And such changes brought faith to Milo.
Feeling the slow growth of Anubis, Milo also silently explored the power of the Drought Liches. By transforming their power into order, he continuously strengthened the concept of the order of death, hoping to use it as a means to target the evil god Phaethon.
Of course, Milo had another idea to promote the expansion of Anubis' faith.
He hopes to take this opportunity to try to seize or usurp the faith of a certain god, try to use this method to bypass the blockade of the Western Gods, and attract the attention of the Dragon Land, and obtain more information about the True God Realm.
In the days that followed, with the expansion of Anubis's faith and the gathering of some remnants of the Mulhorand pantheon, Milo even took advantage of the situation to launch some of the content about Anubis in Egyptian mythology, bringing
The identity of this god's phantom is connected with Osiris, Seth, Yinsis and Nephthys, which has allowed their faith to be restored to a certain extent.
Relying on these changes in the beliefs of the gods of the Mulhorand pantheon, Milo also began a second attempt to find out what the current state of the gods of the Mulhorand pantheon is.
After all, when Fang Tianyu was first created, it attracted many foreign gods. Apart from the Western gods that now dominate, the elven gods took a back seat, the dragon gods had almost no sense of existence, and the giant gods had basically withdrawn.
In addition to the extinct Mulhorandian god line, as far as Milo knew, there were the Unther god line, the Vedic god line, the Greyhawk god line, the Ankoloma god line and the Maztec god line.
.
It's just that most of these pantheons are the same as the Mulhorand pantheon. They didn't last long before they began to die out or merged with the existing Western gods.
But in the process of extinction, the appearance of some gods changed significantly.
As far as Milo knew, Yinsis in the Mulhorand pantheon had absorbed the faith of Yin Shita, the god of love, war, thunder, rain and storm, who was a powerful divine figure in the Unser pantheon.
It even replaced her appearance for a time.
What’s even more interesting is that Yin Shita’s predecessor was Yin Nanna, the goddess of the Ense Goddess. Milo didn’t find out much about the relationship between these three goddesses. It’s hard to say who takes the lead, but this goddess
It is impossible to simply leave.
Milo now hopes to use faith to try to explore the traces they left.
