The whole world is ablaze, and everywhere you look is filled with scalding magma and active seas of fire.》.》
If you are far away, it feels like taking a sauna. If you are close, it is like being roasted in a fire. If you really walk in, if you don't bring some fire-resistant equipment and medicine, it will be directly ignited.
The sea of fire is not calm, and flaming monsters crawl out of it. They attack everything in front of them crazily, including their own kind. When their short lives come to an end, the violent explosions and sea of fire are the end of their lives.
There are flame monsters, salamanders, secondary fire elements, fire rock monsters, and fire wolves everywhere. They are killing each other. The winner can devour the elemental core of the loser and grow rapidly.
If you don't know the ins and outs of the incident, it would be difficult to imagine that this is the Northland, which is famous for its coldness all over the world. It is simply a nightmare scene in the flame elemental plane in the novel, but in a sense, this place has indeed been eroded.
The elemental plane of fire.
And in the midst of the flames, there is a throne of ice and snow, which attracts the attention of all flame creatures.
It was a throne more than ten meters high, and the surrounding atmosphere was full of ice and snow. Even the sea of fire would be instantly frozen, and any flame monster that came close to it would be instantly frozen into ice.
On the throne, a figure wearing heavy ice armor was meditating. He seemed to be dozing on the Ice Throne, but the brilliance of wisdom flashing in his bright eyes proved that he still existed.
Needless to say, summoning ice in a world of fire is a hateful thing. Countless fire elemental creatures rushed over, but turned into ice sculptures the moment they got close. No one was even able to get the ice-armored man to take action himself.
There are already pieces of broken ice on the ground, which are all fragments of the flame monster. Although it is still in the outer area of the volcano, the ability to kill elemental creatures on such a large scale is enough to prove the extraordinaryness of the ice-armored man.
He always sat on the throne and remained silent, ignoring the monster that roared at him, the posture of a meditator. He seemed to be waiting for something, but it never came. When dusk began to fall, he finally spoke. His language was simple,
The tone is low and the meaning is profound...
"...Damn, my butt is frozen again."
Ahem, at this moment, I finally had a realization. No wonder a certain prince could stay on the Frost Throne for so long. It turned out that he probably got out of it just like me, and when his lair was invaded in the end, he had no choice but to
Standing up... it must be very painful.
After I made up my mind not to cosplay that unlucky guy next time and to change my look, I also began to summarize my gains. Of course, before that, I first threw out a signal flare to convey a message to the outside world.
After more than ten minutes, two huge red dragons appeared in the sky, rushing towards me like lightning.
The red dragons with the fire attribute are not hostile to the entire plane. With extremely high fire resistance, they ignore the fire attack from the fire element. They dive directly at low altitude, take the throne that has restrained the cold air, and turn their heads.
Just run.
I was hunting outside the flame area, and soon we returned to the normal world. The moment I breathed the cold air again, my harvest arrived in time. A large amount of ice magic was poured into it.
My body was so cold that I almost froze to death. It took dozens of minutes before I slowly regained my breath.
"...It seems that I will reduce the amount of hunting next time. I didn't expect that the Snow Mountain Demon Realm would be so generous and give so much."
At the moment, what gives me the magic power of ice as a reward is the Demonic Realm of the Snowy Mountains in the Ice Elemental Plane. To figure out the reason, I’m afraid we have to start with the elemental war and the will of the plane.
The plane has a will. Although it seems nonsense, it is actually a fact accepted by mages. It is a combination of a series of rules. Although it is simple and mechanical, it does act according to the rules... The exception is probably the will of the abyss.
Well, that's a bastard who keeps cheating and being unreasonable.
Most of the time, most residents are unable to realize the existence of the will of the plane, and they cannot touch the rules set by the will of the plane.
The rules of the will of each plane are different, but treating everyone equally is the only criterion (the abyss under human control continues to be an exception). For example, in the abyss where the law of the jungle is the basic rule, killing the opponent will be rewarded with the will of the abyss.
The rapid growth after transformation is the best bait.
Some people may say that devouring is the source of growth, but allowing... no, the existence of the "devouring" rules is the reason for the will of the plane.
Making beneficial contributions to the main plane will also be blessed by the will of the plane. For example, when I successfully sublimated the law into the power of law, the will of the entire plane (the source of order) gave me blessings and
The reward not only included the power of law as part of the power of order, but also gave the sleepless man the divinity and priesthood of the God of Law, which is a huge reward that allows him to become a god in one step at any time.
Rewards on the main plane are generally not specific items, but are often certain privileges and invisible benefits. You can take advantage of them when you find them, but most of the time you don’t know what you have been rewarded. Of course, the most common
The reward is all kinds of inexplicable good luck (resulting from destiny), and the most obvious punishment for intruders and harmers is inexplicable bad luck (another reason why the devil is always knocked down).
Hey, I seem to have finally discovered a source of my luck...
The elemental plane also has rules, such as the elemental devouring rules mentioned before. Elemental creatures attack and devour each other in the elemental plane. Through evolution, elemental lords appear. In the war of elemental lords, the winner becomes the elemental monarch. The civil war between elemental monarchs
The god of elements appears.
It can be said that the rules of the elemental plane are simple and crude, and the reward is the power of the plane. It is somewhat similar to the abyss, but there are not many sequelae. And who is copying who, I really don’t know, considering the history of both parties.
In the long run, the person who copied the idea was probably Will of the Abyss.
When a war breaks out between elemental planes, being able to drive elemental creatures to fight bravely is naturally an attractive enough benefit. For elemental creatures, only pure and powerful elemental power is the most real reward.
.
Does it look familiar? Two large companies compete for market share, fighting openly and covertly to the death. The profits obtained in the end are given to the successful salesmen in the market share, encouraging them to continue to work hard to compete for the market... This is another element of explanation.
The truth of war.
A long time ago, mages discovered that the rules of the elemental plane are quite rough. In the elemental war, if you use the power of hostile elements to kill your opponents (the rules are equal), you can still get rewards, such as the current ice plane, fire
The plane is at war, and I used ice elements to kill the flame creatures on the battlefield. The ice plane will also give me a share, which is the power of pure ice elements that can make elemental creatures grow rapidly. As an ice mage,
But I can convert it into real ice magic.
This is also the reason why the Kingdom of Mage has a presence in all major elemental planes. In the elemental plane, elemental mages can grow rapidly in various ways, but the extra rewards given by cannibalism are very few, and they are more during the elemental war.
...For the same reason, the company's internal salespeople do not encourage or support market grabbing, but if they grab other companies' shares, they will get big bonuses.
For elemental mages, elemental war is an extremely dangerous thing. After all, we are not elemental creatures. Just having strong elemental power does not mean much. Magical practice is the accumulation of knowledge and experience. Magical power beyond magic control is equivalent to incarnation and self-explosion of elemental bombs. But
For me, what is lacking now is just the power of the elements.
Not only to make up for the emptiness after using Ice Age, but also to lay a sufficient foundation for further advancement. My ice power has already reached the level of a transcendent demigod.
Today, it is already my third day of elemental hunting, and I can still only hunt in the outer reaches. It is not that I am not strong enough, but that the ice plane is too generous and gives too much every day.
I guess this is because the plane war has just begun and there are "too few ice creatures" hunting fire elemental creatures. Maybe I will become the "number one salesperson" in the ice plane and receive the "Business Champion Award" every day.
gift".
Calculate the time. The ice elemental creatures from the Demon Realm of the Snowy Mountains are coming soon. By that time, the division should be normal. I can also consider hunting high-level fire elemental creatures, fighting fire wolves, salamanders and the like every day.
, it’s so boring. I’m so bored that I want to find something to entertain myself... Wait, I’ll think of a way to defrost my butt first. It’s too dangerous to forcefully pull it off. Maybe I won’t even be able to ride a mount in the future... Is this right?
Is this why someone still loses his mount!?
Hey, I'd better be more serious. I'm living a very miserable life these days. Hunting during the day is boring to death, and I have to make up lessons all night long. The person who makes up lessons for me is still the ice magic enlightenment instructor...
"... Roland, today, let's turn to Chapter 153 of "The Compound Effect of Water and Ice". Let's talk about the lesson of water and ice effect. First of all, you have to forget what I taught you back then, because I was all cheating you back then.
you……"
I feel more and more speechless. Is there a tutor like this who actually cheats students? Sure enough, I knew something was wrong. It was all your fault that I failed the cold magic class three times!
"...No, you are too stupid. Everyone else has passed. The pit I dug back then was just to make students take detours, but you went in the opposite direction before you even left the house."
【I can guarantee this is true.】
Even the system is attacking me at this time. Is my magic talent so bad?
"Believe me, I have seen students who are worse than you. They can't even become apprentices. I really don't know how you became an official ice mage back then."
How did I become an ice mage back then? I cheated the system.
So, when I turned my attention to the system, the answer I got was even more frustrating.
[In a sense, you have never been an ice mage. To be more precise, you are more like an elemental monster than a mage. Other mages construct spell models through theoretical analysis to control the power of elements. You directly comprehend and use your will.
Forcibly controlled, if other mages are brains, you rely on instinct... Others sketch based on the actual object and restore the reality one stroke at a time. You describe your own feelings with ink paintings and project the reality you see.
There is a huge difference in nature.]
At that moment, countless memories filled my mind. My understanding of ice had traces of the North, and my strange source of magic. Later, Heloise also changed her teaching method and stopped teaching me theory.
Let me understand the essence of ice... I just want to understand. Is this what a mage who studies knowledge and conducts experiments should do? Looking back now, this magic stick is full of aura.
"Nonsense, you heard that magician who played magic and realized that it is not magic at all, and the least magic thing was just a fool at the time, but it actually became... So later I taught you how to use
Teach the ways of Warcraft."
Although I feel very unhappy, I already have a universal answer.
"Huh, you science students who play with data don't understand. I am a liberal arts student pursuing romance! Theory is the ladder for fools. Geniuses only need inspiration and instinct."
"...So, romantic liberal arts student genius, do you need treatment for frostbite on your buttocks? Perhaps you plan to apply the medicine yourself while lying on your stomach? I will never film it and sell it to the goblin and Renee..."
"...Teacher, please continue taking classes, I can't wait to become an excellent theoretical mage!" (To be continued.)
