Holy light, ice, death, and law, any one of these four areas can consume a wise man's lifelong energy.
People's talents have tendencies. Most of the so-called all-rounders are mediocre across the board. The more advanced the knowledge, the more time it takes to accumulate and explore. Long-lived species may be able to overcome this with their long lifespans, but short-lived humans cannot.
There are no luxuries.
For Roland, his ability growth trajectory is very special. All four abilities have reached their peak. It seems to violate this basic rule, but in fact, he is not distracted at all.
Roland, rather than viewing these fields as a kind of power and knowledge, it is better to regard them as a philosophical philosophy of life.
The way of faith in the Holy Light was enlightened by Estrada. He practiced the way of protection passed down by the Holy Knights for generations. Coupled with the blessing of the Holy Light, he could reach the peak step by step, but since he brought the Holy Light to
Judging from the essence of the way of light being upgraded to the way of salvation, he is simply using theology and philosophy to study the Holy Light, rather than simply studying the Holy Light and its use like other priests.
The most obvious proof is that he has not developed the special magic of high-level priests and paladins. When it comes to the use of holy light, skills, and experience in high-level magic, let alone compared with other semi-holy knights and priests.
No, he may not be as good as a legendary paladin who has practiced hard and studied hard.
Not to mention the law, it is the accumulation and pursuit of two lives, and it is more about the understanding of life and rules.
He is a founder, but not a dedicated and professional researcher. He hopes that the law can change the world, but has no interest in further studying the use of the power of the law. Most of the new spells in the world now are other
The development of legal professionals... Roland himself can't do it.
And because he was less and less interested in the application of the power of law, he used the power of law less and less in battles. In the same situation, he also used the power of ice.
Han Bing is probably the one with the worst control of all powers. If he didn't have to collect all four elements and let the system cheat all the way, he might never have reached this point.
His only understanding of ice is what he has gained over the years. Compared with ordinary ice mages, it is probably not bad. But if compared to those real spell casters, he can only be regarded as an apprentice... The ice magic he knows now
The number is not even comparable to that of a legendary ice magician with a professional background.
The real strong ones reach the top step by step. Spellcasters must have accumulated a large amount of spells. They obtain principles and knowledge by analyzing the models of low-level spells. They master intermediate and high-level spells step by step, and only when they reach the top and reach the bottleneck
Start researching your own special magic.
People like Roland who master the essence and principles but are not interested in applying them will not be able to turn their power into real combat power.
A mage who is good at thousands of spells is not just a gimmick. He only knows ice arrows and blizzards. Roland of Ice Age is the most unqualified ice spell in this world, so he kept forgetting to cast spells. In the end
Return to the physical fighting that you are best at.
When people are in a panic, the things they rely on and trust the most are naturally the most familiar things. This shows that his investment in swordsmanship probably far exceeds that of ice magic. At least, he trusts his sword more than himself.
of ice spells.
The only ice-based forbidden spell that can be used... In addition to the help of the system, "Ice Age" is more about the knowledge accumulated in two lives, as well as its understanding of "death" and "destruction", which is the Lich
body and the crystallization of three reincarnations.
Yes, Roland really invested a huge amount of time and energy, and he himself had a unique talent in this area, and it was "Death".
During that time, Roland found out the "truth" about his homeland. It was also the time when he fell into despair and became crazy. It was also the time when he longed for power the most in his life.
The weakness of smart people is probably always being lazy, and always missing opportunities when things happen. However, during that time, Roland was extremely eager to obtain the power of revenge, and even broke through the bottom line at all costs and directly dug into the soul.
Mystery.
"The only undead emperor in the past thousand years, the highest pinnacle of soul science, and the founder of the undead structure science."
These titles from the dead and mages may best explain Roland's height in the field of "death". At least based on the research on the essence of the soul, Roland has already lived in the multiverse... and even the reason why he can master other powers.
, also stems from his understanding of his own soul. He has been able to turn his beliefs and emotions into real power!
The experience of bathing in the River Styx and the memories of actually entering death and reincarnation several times made his understanding of the nature of death surpass that of any other existence in this world, even beyond the creator Ashe.
His real research results have not yet appeared in front of the world, and what Roland can really leave a mark in the history of Ashe is not the terrifying creations like the Seven Deadly Sins. After all, the predecessor of the Undead Emperor has even more terrifying undead creations, and
The Seven Deadly Sins themselves are just a by-product of his research on souls and pursuit of power.
"He broke the boundary between life and death."
Yes, this is Roland's greatest achievement. Before Roland, death was death. Whether it was entering the River Styx or entering reincarnation, it was all over. No one could truly be resurrected.
The moment Lisa fell into the River Styx, she was already dead. Even if she was pulled ashore by Roland, the new life would be another individual. You can say that her previous life was Lisa.
You can turn into the dead, or become an envoy or an angel, but it is another way to continue life. The living are still the living, the dead are still the dead, and no one can break that line.
Neither the Undead Emperor nor the gods of nature, including the Goddess of Creation and the Lord God, could break the boundary between life and death. Only Roland did research that no one else dared to think of, and he succeeded.
Perhaps, that's because in essence, he is still the crazy lich with no restrictions.
However, such a result is not a matter of luck, nor can it be achieved in one step. Roland's research route has an obvious trajectory.
Even if the Seven Deadly Sins study the creations of the undead, they use themselves as research materials to dissect the nature of the soul, desires, emotions and other soul characteristics. With the accumulation of the Seven Deadly Sins, Roland's understanding of the nature of the soul has surpassed all others.
existence... After all, no one else would be crazy enough to operate on himself, dissect a part of his soul and throw it into other undead creations for cultivation, and then observe the changes in the essence of the soul. If Roland hadn't been nicknamed "The Immortal", this would have been suicide.
There is no difference.
And the experience of the Styx gave him the only personal contact with the living and the undead in this world (no one else can enter the Styx and reincarnation). When Roland relied on his previous understanding of the nature of the soul, he solved the mystery of the living and the undead.
the essential difference.
The mysteries of life and death were thus opened a crack, but some things are impossible to do even if they know the principles... Roland has no intention of breaking the limitations of life and death. In his calculations, it would require a massive amount of energy.
of energy and huge losses.
In fact, this research result is just a by-product of his research on creation and creation, and an exploration of the essence of life. He has no intention of resurrecting anyone.
In the North, during the events that led to the fall of the angels, Roland successfully created life, but he did not create a soul. He only proved that the extreme of the power of light is darkness, and that the chaos of death and the order of the holy light can actually be integrated.
Creating life together is enough for him to become the mortal enemy of the God of Holy Light.
Creation, the final research result of creation is the main plane of Hades. Let’s ignore this for now, but since we can create the body, then, with the creation of the soul, can we create a complete individual life? And those alchemy puppets, life creations
Different, this is real "living".
The authority of the Creator... No, the Creator's creation ability is limited. After creating, they can only let the group spread and evolve. This is to create an individual from scratch. Perhaps, this is a glory that far exceeds the Creator. When such an opportunity presents itself
In front of him was Roland, who was also moved by it.
So, when Aiye cut off the connection between the earth elemental plane and the main plane, when all the higher beings could not look at him, Roland gritted his teeth and conducted a final experiment.
Roland used Heloise as a test subject, burning the soul of the evil "Shadow" and pouring its soul essence into Heloise, trying to overcome its shortcomings as an undead and transform it from an undead into a dead spirit.
spirit.
Result? Everyone should already know the result. Heloise is alive. Although she still has some undead characteristics, she is indeed alive.
Her soul and body were fused together, and she no longer needed resentment to drive her soul. She could reproduce and become infinitely stronger... But this made no sense. Roland never expected a dead cat to become capable of beating.
Did Roland succeed? Not necessarily. Although he did it this time, it means that Roland's research was successful and the principles of the resurrection ritual are correct. However, this time Heloise was resurrected using the soul of an extremely rare and powerful god. One life is exchanged for another.
It also requires a huge amount of energy, and such a resurrection technology has no practical significance at all.
Of course, many theoretical research results had little practical significance when they first came out and could only be seen in the laboratory. With the development of other technologies and the advancement of industry, they have become more and more practical.
In the past two years, due to some other objective factors (the technology of the Sage Civilization), Roland has developed two applications for this technology. As long as they are thrown out, they are enough to make him soft and win the Medal of Truth.
The title of the most outstanding undead master in ten thousand years, but considering the social impact that might be caused by announcing it... or it would be more appropriate to describe it as world change, Roland still obediently locked the technology into the treasure house.
As a familiar, the soul link can be observed very carefully, which is the main reason why Roland chose Heloise as a test subject. At least at that time, Roland never thought that the dead cat was the only golden elf in this world, and what her survival meant.
"Dead people have no human rights, but living people have no human rights."
The golden elves of the elven royal family have been extinct for countless years. Even if Heloise still exists in the world as an undead, but has lost her identity as an elf, how can any elf recognize her?
But if she survives, will she regain her identity as the Elf Queen... At least this is not mentioned in the elves' clan rules, but as long as this orthodox successor lives for one day, those who rebel against the superiors will feel uncomfortable. The elves
There are other options.
When the elves are in misery, and when the current elven gods cannot guide the elves' lives to become better, people's hearts will naturally think of the leaders of the past.
Someone...perhaps, it should be said that God saw this matter.
"Kalymandas, the God of Wisdom..."
As a half-elf who once lived in the golden age of elves, old Calymandas was very nostalgic. For a long time, he protected Heloise, at least so that she would not die because of the elven gods.
baffling.
And during the battle in Hades, his true form came. Although he did not work hard and was hooking up with Hades, how could a main god who paid attention to Heloise not notice her changes when he met her?
.
After that, Roland and Calymandas had a secret conversation, and Roland also knew that he had unknowingly caused a huge trouble.
"It must not be leaked, otherwise the elves and gods will kill her at all costs... She is now linked to your soul. If you don't die, she won't die. Then, those small-minded people will definitely kill you at all costs. And if you don't want to be
Countless gods are chasing you, but don’t reveal that you have the ability to resurrect.”
Roland did not turn a deaf ear to Calymandas's reminder. He knew that even if Heloise did not come out to cause trouble, just because she was the orthodox heir of the great elf empire, just because of this bloodline status, the elf gods would not
Will let her go.
He didn't even remind Heloise about this, or maybe Heloise tacitly forgot about the possible consequences of her resurrection.
Death is the end of the world, but living people have to bear responsibilities, and this burden is really hard to bear.
The liquidation of traitors, the civil war among the elves, the reunification of the elves and the elven god system, and the leadership of the entire elves, just thinking about it makes one's scalp numb. Roland, who was afraid of trouble, chose to let everything be lost in history.
"Even if Heloise planned to raise the banner to rebuild the Elf Empire, it would be tantamount to going against those moon elves. Now the elves can still live a good life. Since they can have enough to eat, who will have nothing to do and follow her to rebel. Since then.
If it’s impossible to do, then it’s better not to say anything.”
But some things cannot be avoided if you want. Under the fluctuation of the ironic hand of fate, Roland found himself a big trouble. Some troubles... responsibilities must be faced sooner or later.
Perhaps Roland's team lost contact with the main plane in the abyss, but soon, through the goblin's contact network, the inevitable decision had to be made.
"The Elf Empire established by the four high-ranking elves, and the ancient Elf Empire established by the golden elves as the royal family and the four high-ranking elves. The former is still in the crisis of doomsday, and the latter also has the inheritance of the country's name and a safe backing. Which one is easier?
To become the orthodox royal family in the eyes of the elves, need we say more?" (~^~)
