"The artifact, the Scepter of Eternal Night, the symbol of immortal kingship, is said to be the possession of Lord Eternal Night. It contains the powerful secret of the Lord, but it has never appeared on the stage of history." The artifact illustration of the Tower of Ten Thousand Laws is like this
Introducing Yongye Warrants.
As the only undead emperor in modern times, the rise of King Eternal Night and his disappearance are legendary. No one knows how he rose, just as no one would have predicted that he would be overthrown in his heyday. However, many people speculate that his
The sudden rise is inextricably related to this artifact.
"This artifact has never appeared in history, and its existence has been questioned (kill a rumor monger, and you can receive a reward of 100 gold coins in the Seventh Administration Hall of the Heroic Empire based on his head), but the emperors, including me, are not
The young guard and the entourage all heard him murmuring this sentence in a low voice."
"Do you want my power and royal authority? Go find it, I put it all there - the Scepter of Evernight."
"The Emperor's wisdom is as deep and profound as the sea. At that time, no one expected that the invincible Eternal Night Legion would fail. But he was not fooled by the illusion. The soul flame in his eyes had already seen through the future. His seemingly
He was muttering something ominous to himself, but he was actually explaining the future of the kingdom after he was gone."
"And since he disappeared (including me, there are still many high-level undead who don't believe that the invincible emperor will die in battle), this rumor has spread like wildfire. It seems that all the "Eternal Night Scepter"
It has long been the consensus of all intelligent undead that only a talented person can become the heir of the Undead Emperor. If someone really obtains the scepter, then the great empire may not come to an end. The great emperor has prepared the best future for the undead empire, and...
…”
"The stupid undead monarchs actually ignored the emperor's teachings. After he left, they started a war for profit. They lacked legitimacy and expected to use force to force their way to the throne and become a new generation of undead emperors. As a result, the upcoming undead emperor will be established.
The great empire of the undead came to nothing, the invincible Evernight Army was exhausted, and the remnants formed the Shiro Empire."
"Due to this historical reason, even though the twelve most powerful consuls share power, they are still the empire, but we will not allow any of us to ascend to that position. The throne has been vacant for more than a hundred years.
It will be destined to hang in the air until the owner of the scepter appears. The recorder of history, the seventh consul of the Ciro Empire, Marquis Spider, and the emperor’s eternal bodyguard, Reinhardt.”
Well, when I saw Reinhardt Jr.'s "Historical Works", my jaw was dislocated on the spot. I really didn't know how to respond. If I could still live to sweat, it would be cold sweat, violent sweat, waterfall sweat,
Genghis Khan is probably not enough to express my extremely complicated feelings.
In a sense, the original malicious joke has achieved results beyond expectations, and now, in order to make this underground world even more chaotic, I have prepared the second half of the joke with malicious intent.
The Evernight Scepter is a black wooden scepter about one meter long. It looks like wood, but is actually filled with bone meal. It is a special scepter made of bone and wood.
It was carved by me myself. The bloody rose pattern and decoration on it are all in my personal style. The old guys at that time would know it at a glance. There are also four words on the handle that carry my unique gray ice of death magic.
"Eternal Night Scepter", just by looking at its appearance, you can tell that it is a super high-end product, but that alone is not enough.
"The first thing to solve is its provenance. Treasures without sources are always suspicious. Adam, sign this document with your soul mark."
After glancing at the document, Adam laughed out loud, fearing that the world would be in chaos, and then happily signed his name on it.
"Adam. Han." The font is burning like a flame without a trace of heat. It burns quietly on the paper. The soul imprint originating from the soul emblem is different for everyone. It is the symbol of the legend's identity. Forgery is completely impossible.
.
And the name on my staff, the gray ice of death font, carries the flavor of ice, snow and death. It is also the imprint of my soul when I was the Lord of Eternal Night, which adds to the authenticity.
What I want him to sign is a consignment for auction. The consignee is the largest auction house in Vickers Standi, the city where the underground covenant was concluded.
With this certificate, it at least proves that the Scepter of Eternal Night comes from the hands of the brave Adam Han. Moreover, it specifically swears that the origin of this artifact is legitimate. Adam obtained it from the Lord of Eternal Night. Adam used his reputation to guarantee the document.
authenticity!
When this news spreads, everyone will guess that Adam secretly hid the Scepter of Eternal Night when he defeated the Lord of Eternal Night. Then, the source of the Scepter of Eternal Night becomes real and reliable.
Well, what is stated in the document is indeed true. Adam did receive the scepter from me, but the real time is slightly different. You misunderstood yourself, but you can’t blame me...
Then, I held the scepter and poured in the magic power, but asked Adam to hold the other end of the scepter, pour in his own strength, and then twist, pull, and turn...
"Click."
The fire and ice collided and exploded, and the scepter almost broke. It was full of cracks, and one side was marked by flames, and the other side was gray-black with corrosion and ice spreading.
"Okay, this will cause the traces of damage in the battle between Lord Yongye and the Red Lotus Hero. Then, even if there is something wrong, they will blame it on the damage in the battle."
But it was still a little too new, so I threw it on the ground and jumped and stepped on it. Then, Adam also wanted to come over and "help", so I kicked him away.
This guy doesn't know how serious it is, and he's very strong. If he jumps twice, it will definitely break. Then all the previous work would have been in vain.
"Well, the historical traces are barely there, so let's make do." Looking at the scepter covered with dust and footprints, I nodded with satisfaction. Now it is no longer the brand-new wooden stick, but an old one full of scars.
Goods are a bit like cultural relics.
Margaret was thoughtful on the side, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.
"No matter how real it seems, but..."
"Yes, it's not enough." Of course I know it's not enough. This is not the authenticity of cultural relics in the past life. I can only find flaws little by little based on experience and knowledge. There is magic and true gods in this world, and there are many types of prophetic spells.
It's not that easy to cheat.
However, this was what I expected from the beginning. Both Adam and I were once demigods, already the strongest beings under the True God. Ordinary prophecy spells are basically ineffective, but there are still a few in this world.
This ability is very troublesome.
The high-level priest's divine prayer technique allows you to ask questions to the true god you believe in. If the true god happens to be free (the most beloved priests have less than a 1/10 chance of using this divine spell), he may answer your questions.
But only answers "yes" and "no"
The Archmage's otherworldly truth technique summons a true spirit from another world and asks him questions, but he can still only answer "YES" and "NO".
There is also the witch's tarot divination, through the interpretation of the fate line, it still only answers "true" and "false"...
As far as I know, those reliable prediction spells all have this problem. They can only answer "yes" and "no", and sometimes there is still no answer. Then, the shorter the question, the more likely it is to get the answer. After predicting once,
It is impossible to predict again in the short term.
This is not an accident, but a rule of this world. The more powerful the prophetic spell is, the closer it is to the truth of the world, but the more it must be strictly restricted. At the same time, the more information must be obtained, the more time spent on the way to discover the truth.
The more information there is, the deeper the truth will be unable to be discovered.
I can indeed pay a price, just like concealing my existence on the line of fate, to make the prediction spells against the Evernight Scepter invalid. But sometimes, not being able to detect the problem is more of an indication that there is a problem, and being unable to detect and predict is more of an indication that there is a problem.
Ghost, then the conclusion is obvious, we need to make the prophecy spell make wrong conclusions,
Does it sound incredible that a 100% correct prediction spell can lead to wrong conclusions? Haha, sometimes, correct does not mean true, and true does not mean correct,...
Since we can only answer binary answers of "yes" and "no", there are many tricks that can be played.
I sorted out three questions they might ask. The first one, and the one that must be asked, is whether this staff is the Eternal Night Staff made by Lord Yongye himself... There is no need to play tricks on this, it must be authentic and reliable.
.
Then, the second most likely question is, "Is there any secret of Lord Yong Ye among them?"
This question is simple, but the simpler it is, the more information it contains. If there is no secret, then even if the scepter is real, it is as worthless as a fake one. I guarantee that this question will be asked first.
I will be asked many times.
So, I had already put in a note with "secret" written in Chinese...
Okay, it's a spoof, but it should be very effective. After all, those idiot prophecy spells will definitely say "YES!" "Yes" and "True."
Third, "Is there a secret to becoming the emperor of the Siro Empire/Whether it is helpful to become the undead monarch,"
This is to ask whether this artifact really has the political value of ruling the Siro Empire...Okay, I put the little secrets and little habits of the undead monarchs into it, such as the Bone Dragon Queen's singing is very unpleasant, and she snores when she sleeps.
If you threaten them with these little secrets, if they give in, it will naturally be helpful to your political life. Of course, the premise is that you are not killed and silenced...
To be honest, based on my understanding of them, if they are so vicious and cruel, you might as well go directly to the human kingdom and tell the king that I want to be your boss and give up the throne to me, then the chance of success will be much greater...
..
The fourth is "Is it related to the powerful secret/power of Lord Yong Ye?"
Well, "study hard, make progress every day, work hard to defeat monsters, and work hard to level up." It's absolutely true. This is the secret of the power of Lord Yongye. If you don't agree, come and argue...
Well, I believe that after these methods are used, the authenticity and importance of the Eternal Night Scepter will spread throughout the underground world from the day the auction house receives the goods, attracting the attention of all forces, even if no one can
Use it... No, not only that, the above world should also send people over. At least, the governors of the Undead Ciro Empire will all go crazy... If the Undead Empire starts fighting with the underground city masters, then, secondly,
Will this world-destroying catastrophe pass inexplicably?
Okay, I admit I'm overly optimistic, but give the head office a try.
"Then, first of all, the initial goal of causing chaos in the underground world has been achieved..."
Looking at this scepter, I am still a little dissatisfied. I don’t think anyone will see that it is a fake, but for super strong people, sometimes unreasonable intuition is more reliable than knowledge and experience. That instinct is very
It’s hard to hide it.
So, after hesitating for a moment, I said to Adam.
"Now that I have been released from prison, return Roland's Holy Sword to me.",
"Here." Without saying a word, Adam, who was covered in fiery red, handed me the silver-white broken sword that was the only other color on his body.
Margaret beside her was stunned for a moment and wanted to say something, but in the end she had no words.
"Oh, my life box, long time no see."
Yes, this is where my soul is. As long as the phylactery is immortal, the lich will not be annihilated. The phylactery can be anything, it can even be a book or a hat.
Judging from the secrets obtained through the lottery system, Uncle Tom from another world once divided his soul into seven parts, made seven phylacteries, and named them Horcruxes...
In fact, I want to say that although it is indeed difficult to die in this way, since the soul is divided into so many parts, the guy is not afraid of becoming a schizophrenic lunatic... Well, maybe, he was crazy from the beginning.
The phylactery of me, the prisoner, is naturally on the body of Adam, the jailer, and I carry it with me all the time. Of course, this guy is still very smart, at least he is not stupid enough to threaten me with the phylactery and force me to play other tricks...
Caressing this broken sword, I sighed. I chose to use my family's heirloom as a phylactery back then, just because this Roland Holy Sword, which has the same name as me, is also known as the "Immortal Sword" and has survived thousands of years.
Not damaged, but now, under the torrent of fate, our country is finished, but this immortal sword is still "destroyed".
At this time, with the phylactery in hand, the gray magic power around me slowly increased, and I no longer felt the discomfort of being suppressed, and I also regained some strength.
"Legendary level? Then, many things will become much easier recently."
Next, I touched the opening of the broken sword and easily pinched out some metal fragments from the strong sword. There were also fluctuations of souls around the fragments.
Then I sprinkled the sesame seeds on the "Eternal Night Scepter" just like making dough, and then gently touched it. After a dazzling flash, there were more stars on the scepter.
gem.
The gems continued to shine with silver light, and the starlight jumped between the gems, interlaced with each other, one after another. If you observe carefully, the light also has its own rhythm, just like a breathing creature. After I poured in the soul fragments, this
The Evernight Scepter has a soul and is already alive!
However, contrary to this broken sword that holds my soul, the strong man holding this scepter will listen to the words of my soul and be influenced by me to make decisions. Even in the long soul exchange, the soul is
I corrupted and gradually became my slave... something seems wrong. I haven't been the big devil for many years! Well, it's just a personal habit, and if I'm not careful...
Seeing the scene in front of him, Adam took a deep breath. Although he didn't know what I did, he instinctively felt that this scepter was dangerous and something was wrong.
But Margaret glared at me fiercely. She saw something and expressed her dissatisfaction with her eyes, but her protest was ignored by me as always.
"Okay, I accidentally got used to it, and I did go a bit too far. However, at least it needs to be of this level to make those underground overlords, undead kings, and wild superpowers lose their wits and jump into the whirlpool on their own initiative.
"
Then, I opened my mouth and swallowed the broken sword in one gulp. The broken sword did not fall into the bones of my body, but disappeared directly.
I have moved the broken sword to a safe place. At this point, I am completely released from prison.
"It is said that it will take more than two months to get to Vickers Standy, where the Dungeon Covenant headquarters is located. We need to prepare in advance. Let Annie lead the team. It is time for her to take charge. You cannot protect her from the wind and rain for a lifetime. Don't worry, I
I will also follow and continue to be my behind-the-scenes mastermind and will not let her die."
After saying that, I turned around and left.
"It takes more than two months to go to Vickers Standi? No, Master, you are talking about the old almanac. There are three ways now, which are much faster."
I glanced at the eager maid behind me.
"Although I don't have any expectations, I'll just listen to what you have to say."
"It is true that a conventional carriage takes nearly three months, but the advancement of technology has made the new road much faster. The first one only takes one second, the dwarf interdimensional tearing machine..."
"...Isn't this the teleporter of the dwarf who wants to die? Anyway, I don't want to be stuck in another dimension again. If you want to travel to another world and find a female harem, you can do it yourself!"
"Article 2, three days, goblin rocket car..."
"No, it was still one second. One second later I was blown up to the sky. Forget it, I guessed the last one too, no need to say it again."
But the head maid, who was holding her eyes and smiling expressionlessly, followed the master who left behind and continued speaking regardless.
"Three hours, goblin rocket, straight up and down, convenient and quick./…"
"Is there any difference between this one and the other? Oh, one has wheels and one doesn't? Do you really want to seek wealth and death? I should be pretty good to you."
The departure of the unreliable master and servant left the two demigods in deep contemplation.
"Annie? Maybe Roland is right. It's time for her to try it. At her age, we have already started to team up for adventures and run around the world."
"I know whether Annie should go out, but if you let Roland out, are you really not afraid of chaos in the world?"
Faced with the sage's doubts, the brave Adam laughed.
"Don't believe it when I tell you. My intuition tells me that this world may end at any time, and the only speed change is with this lich. Do you believe it?"
Hearing this, Margaret's pretty face tightened, full of displeasure, and then she raised her eyebrows, turning into disdain.
"You believe him, I..."
She wanted to say something disdainful, but in front of Adam's straight eyes, she could never tell a lie, so in the end, she stamped her foot.
"Don't look at me like that, you stupid fagot. I just believe it or not. Although he is a bastard, he is indeed cunning. If he can't do it, no one in this world can!"
