At the same time, Matthew looked at the phantom with vigilant eyes, as well as the claw of the giant beast peeking from behind the portal.
The former noticed Matthew's gaze.
He glanced at the door and suddenly smiled softly:
"Don't be nervous, he's far away."
"But one day, they will be very close."
The voice fell.
The giant beast's claws quickly disappeared from the field of vision through the portal.
On the other side of the door, you can see the clear sky upward, and the blue field like clouds downward.
The beautiful scenery of the world of trees and seas was clearly displayed in front of Matthew.
But it suddenly became blurry.
Matthew subconsciously rubbed his eyes.
The projection of the traveler god added:
"Shuhai doesn't like being spied on, so just look away and you'll be fine in a while."
"If it's inconvenient for you right now, I can wait for a while."
He behaved very politely.
Matthew nodded slightly at him.
During this process.
Matthew also discovered that Obest did not seem to see the projection of the traveler god, and he did not even notice the claws of the giant beast Alister!
This phenomenon aroused Matthew's vigilance.
quickly.
A strong centaur warrior walked out of it.
These centaurs are very tall, and most of them carry bows and arrows on their backs. You can tell at a glance that they are not ordinary archers.
Except for centaurs.
Also arriving at the same time were many fairies of light.
One of them, Little Pineapple, seemed to be the leader of the goblins.
Under the introduction of Obest.
The centaurs and the light demons looked at their surroundings excitedly.
Matthew followed the previous arrangement.
With the World Tree as the center, a fairly broad scope of activities has been defined for them——
Before fully integrating into the main material world.
Creatures like centaurs are still very novel to the humans in Rolling Stone Town.
For stability reasons.
Matthew will still restrict the centaurs' activity radius in the short term.
According to the plan he and Obest discussed, it is.
This group of centaurs and light demons will make their home on the World Tree.
They can build a tree house on the World Tree.
The Fairy of Light can quickly integrate into the oak forest ecology with the World Tree and Oak Guard as its carrier.
Centaurs are a naturally lawful race.
They arrived here and after surviving the initial chaos, they immediately established their home on the World Tree in an orderly manner.
And in this process.
Many centaurs also expressed their gratitude to Matthew.
This comforted Matthew.
With the addition of this group of centaurs with an average level of LV14, Rolling Stone Town has a group of powerful marksmen, and the security of Oak Forest is more secure.
After settling the centaur tribe.
The projection of the Traveler God faintly appeared again.
He looks like a casually dressed traveler.
He wore a big hat on his head, and there were some patches on his dusty robe.
Just looking at his appearance would make people think he is a person from the bottom of society.
But Matthew could clearly sense the rich divinity beneath its appearance.
Although this projection seems to have little power.
But Matthew won’t let his guard down either:
"Did you let me see the claws of the giant beast just now?"
The traveler god smiled:
"You can say that, but it already exists. I just helped you see it clearly."
"The giant beast Alister broke into the Sea of Trees 30 years ago and began to destroy the secret realms of the Sea of Trees one by one. This may not have done anything to the Sea of Trees itself. After all, a plane as large as the Sea of Trees has a powerful self-healing function, but for those who
For a small secret realm, it would be a disaster."
"This group of centaurs who defected to you had no choice but to leave their homes because the secret realm was destroyed by Alester and they were unable to survive in the sea of trees."
Matthew nodded slightly and continued to ask tentatively:
"Thank you for your information."
"What is that giant beast called Alester? Where did he come from?"
The traveler god smiled slightly:
"Of course I can answer your questions, but these questions are not free consultations."
Matthew realized that the real drama was coming.
"What do you want me to do? You might as well say it more clearly."
He looked into the other person's eyes.
The traveler god confessed:
"I want to make a deal with you. The content of the deal is as follows -
I will tell you some secrets that only the gods know, and these secrets contain ways to make you extremely powerful.
And in return.
I hope you can awaken my soul mark after my reincarnation, become my teacher, and recommend me to join the Seven Saints Alliance."
Matthew suddenly looked shocked.
He didn't expect that the other party would be so aggressive when he came up.
"Have you found a way to reincarnate?"
Matthew was a little nervous.
"The method of reincarnation has always been there, but most people in Tianlun Palace can't choose it."
The God of Travelers behaved very calmly:
"As long as you abandon all your power and enter the rootless river as a mortal, you can return to the main material world."
“This road is the last resort for us——
Many gods would rather die than choose this seemingly suicide method.
After all, even if you reincarnate successfully, it is very likely that you will not be able to activate the brand of your previous life, which is equivalent to death;
Even if you activate it accidentally, you may encounter many risks and die midway;
Even if they grow up successfully, joining the Seven Saints Alliance is a dead-end choice for them.
But that's not the case for me.
Before I became the God of Travelers, I was actually a mage. However, at the time when I became a mage, the Scourge Mage had not yet appeared. The goddess of magic was aloof and controlled the power of the ether. In order to break through the blockade of the gods, I
He had no choice but to join them and became the God of Travelers.
There should be records in these historical alliances. If you are worried about me lying, you can check it out."
Matthew silently looked at the expression of the traveler god.
He didn't look like he was lying.
"Because you were a mage before, you are willing to risk your consciousness being overwritten and reincarnated into a mortal just to join the Seven Saints Alliance?"
"To be honest, I don't want to believe this reason."
Matthew said bluntly.
The traveler god asked:
"But isn't this the only path left by the Alliance for Tianlun Palace?"
"I accepted your conditions, but you have concerns about me?"
Matthew sighed softly:
"I'm just a little mage. I'm worried about everything. I'm not targeting you."
"Speaking of which, even if you really want to be reincarnated, why are you looking for me?"
"There are a lot of legendary mages in the alliance, even divine mages. Wouldn't it be good for you to negotiate terms with them directly?"
The traveler god shook his head:
"not good."
"Firstly, I don't trust them. Secondly, I'm not sure whether my leverage can impress them."
"But you are different. What I can give you is exactly what you need most, so I think coming to you to discuss cooperation has the highest success rate."
Matthew showed an expression of willingness to hear the details:
"Tell me."
The Way of the Traveler:
"As we all know, all life in the continent of Irondor comes from the Rootless River.
But there is more than just Iron in our universe.
The outer planes, the depths of the stars, the outer planets... the universe is far more colorful than you imagine.
All kinds of strange life will also break through your understanding.
These phenomena can easily lead to questions——
Where did our world come from?
Where do the giant beasts of the astral realm come from?
How were planes and planets born?
I can give you a direct answer to these questions.
These things all come from a rift in the starry sky called the cosmic womb.
The cosmic womb is equivalent to the rootless river in the world of Irondor.
From there, so many living and non-living things were born.
Including the giant beasts that are about to invade Irondor in the odd celestial changes, they are the oldest life forms that have arisen directly from the womb of the universe.
Just like it is difficult for us to find a rootless river.
We also have no way to accurately locate the cosmic womb in the starry sky.
But He does exist.
And the secret I want to tell you is also related to the cosmic womb.
Many, many years ago, the world of Irondor was conceived in the womb of the universe and endowed with all kinds of life.
During this process.
The world of Irondor brought six secrets from the cosmic womb.
Each secret represents a supreme authority.
These six secrets are:
Life, death, love, phase, destiny, time.
In the dark ages.
Gods, dusk creations and prehistoric relics are fighting fiercely for these six secrets.
In the end, the gods were victorious.
Tianlun Palace controls the five secret treasures except the secret treasure of love.
This laid the most important foundation for the gods to defeat other powerful beings and start the Age of Enlightenment.
Face these secrets.
Even the powerful Scourge Mage has suffered defeat.
In the end, she used various means to steal the five secret treasures from Tianlun Palace, scattered them and put them back to their original places.
After that she can conquer everything.
about this point.
I'm afraid it won't be recorded in the history books of the Seven Saints Alliance.
But I promise you.
Everything I tell you is true.
I can also tell you a little secret.
The five secrets held by Tianlun Palace are actually incomplete, because in the early days of the Enlightenment Age, Loa, the God of Luck, who had mastered part of the Secrets of Time and the Secrets of Destiny, suddenly went crazy after killing the Crazy Second Hand, the creature of dusk, and replaced him
Became a new crazy second hand.
During this process.
Loa took away a small part of the secret of time and destiny.
Because of this.
This saves the natural disaster mage a lot of effort when fighting against Tianlun Palace.
Therefore, Loa became the only powerful being who was not really beaten by the Scourge Mage.
I don’t want to brag in front of you about how powerful the six secret treasures are.
But that's my personal opinion.
If the gods of Tianlun Palace could master the six secrets at the same time, even the natural disaster mages would not be able to banish us.
As long as you master one of the secrets, even a small part of it, it will be enough for you to be directly promoted to a legend, or even a high-level legend, a divine mage!"
The tone of the traveler god is full of temptation.
But Matthew seemed unmoved:
"What you said is too empty and too far away for me. It would be more realistic to directly promise me several million gold coins."
The traveler god smiled:
"You feel empty just because you haven't reached that level yet, but you will definitely get there in the future, right?"
"I see the realms of life and death in you. It's not easy to control them at the same time. Su's method of balance, the forced fusion of the second son of the God of Death... these are not the best solutions. You need to master the more original ones.
Power, that is the life and death in the secret!"
"As long as you agree to cooperate with me, I will directly tell you where the secrets of life and death are located, and how to enter."
"Even after I reincarnate as your student, I have the conditions to help you obtain these secrets."
Matthew frowned:
"It really sounds like a scam."
The God of Travelers looked helpless:
"I have abandoned everything and am about to reincarnate as a mortal. Many things are meaningless to me."
"In fact, if time were not critical, I would continue to wait for the secret treasure to take shape, but the odd celestial changes are imminent and Tianlun Palace can no longer stay. I think what I said is enough to prove my sincerity."
"If you are even hesitant about this, then I will have to find someone else."
Matthew said without changing his expression:
"I still feel very confused, why is it me?"
"I need to hear more valid reasons from you."
The traveler god sighed:
"You are a visitor from outside the world. Just like the sun god once, since you choose the weakest way to be reincarnated, then I must give myself a hug in advance. I have always been very accurate in seeing people. I believe you are destined to have extraordinary achievements in the future.
.”
Matthew nodded and shook his head:
"not enough."
The traveler god added:
"Your teacher is Isabel. She is the most powerful person in the world of Irondor. I have always been very conflicted about her. I want to have something to do with her, but I don't want to have anything to do with her. So I become
Your student is the best fit."
The most powerful person?
Matthew looked curious:
"Is my teacher really that great?"
The God of Travelers smiled bitterly:
"The person who knows you best is always your enemy. Maybe even within your alliance, you don't know how terrifying Isabel is as we do."
"Although Ekmund is her guardian, in fact as long as she really wants to, Ekmond can't trap her at all. It's just that her inner will is also affected by the Chaotic Mystery Lock, and it has been divided into many strands.
It’s just fighting.”
"She has been working hard to restrain the influence of the Chaos Mystery Lock, and she is also restraining herself. If one day, Ms. Isabel decides to let herself go, as long as she detonates the Chaos Mystery Lock in her body, then she will reach the height of a natural disaster mage for an instant!"
"But after doing that, she may ascend immediately, or even more likely die instantly."
A momentary scourge mage?
Is this why the gods were so afraid of Ekmund before?
Matthew couldn't help but feel a little shaken.
"The look in your eyes tells me that you actually have a third reason."
He composed himself and continued to torture the projection of the Traveler God.
The latter smiled:
"When I become your student, I will tell you the third reason."
"Now, it's your turn to make a choice, Matthew."
"Are you willing to sign this reincarnation contract with me?"
During the conversation.
A glittering magical document appeared in front of Matthew.
Matthew glanced at it.
At a glance, there is nothing wrong with the above content.
The God of Travelers asked Matthew to find him within 30 years after his reincarnation and awaken the soul imprint of his previous life.
From then on, the reincarnation of the Traveler God will stay with Matthew as a student for two hundred years.
Matthew must be provided with food and shelter for two hundred years to ensure his safety as much as possible.
And in return.
The God of Travelers will directly provide Matthew with three resources -
First, the general location of the two secrets of life and death, the entry methods and related theoretical knowledge.
Second, a certain amount of material wealth is used as tuition.
Third, at least one semi-artifact.
Have to admit it.
This deal looks like a pretty good deal.
The effectiveness of this contract is actually very loose, especially it is not very binding on Matthew.
If everything the traveler god says is true.
Then Matthew really has no good reason to refuse.
Now.
He weighed the contract and activated the contract field to scan it.
A few minutes later.
Everything appears normal, and no loopholes or backdoors are found.
But the more this happens.
Matthew felt more and more abnormal.
He asked tentatively:
"Can I not sign the contract?"
"We can reach a verbal agreement, and you can give me less. I will fulfill my promise to you based on my character."
The Traveler God suddenly turned dark:
"Do you want me to expect the character of a necromancer?"
Matthew shrugged:
"I know very little about the contract. If you do something to it, I won't be able to deal with it."
The traveler god said displeasedly:
"I am a god, not a devil. Have you heard that there are gods who like to play with contracts?"
Matthew smiled slightly:
"But before you became a god, you were a mage. As far as I know, there are many mages who like to play with contracts."
"Otherwise, how about you leave this contract with me and I can take it over and show it to my teacher?"
The face of the Traveler God changed drastically:
"no!"
Sure enough, there is something fishy!
Matthew sneered in his heart:
"why not?"
"Is there anything shady in this contract?"
The face of the Traveler God changes.
Half a moment.
He suddenly sighed:
"Forget it, just show it to Isabel."
"It's not anything special, it's just that this reincarnation contract mentions my state after reincarnation."
"This is very important privacy to me, and I don't want anyone to know except you."
Matthew's heart moved when he heard this.
He quickly searched through the contract and quickly locked on the content about the reincarnation of the Traveler God, but when he saw it said -
"...After the contract is signed, the Traveler God will leave Tianlun Palace and reach the Rootless River through the reincarnation spell.
Before that, he will use the god-level wishing technique to pray and bless his future self by making a time difference.
The specific content of the prayer technique is as follows:
"If I were reincarnated, before I awakened my soul mark, I would like to be a small-breasted girl with red hair and snow-white skin.
You don’t have to be too tall, have a bit of a bad temper, and have a bit of promiscuous tendencies..."
See here.
Matthew couldn't help but open his mouth.
What kind of prayer technique is this?
It’s clearly a silencing technique!
Matthew was so shocked that he couldn't say a word.
"Are you sure that the content of the wish spell is correct?"
Matthew scratched his head.
The God of Travelers looked at him with a look of resentment:
"That's right. I'm a little tired of being a man my whole life."
"Now that I have the opportunity, I still want to try what it's like to be a girl in my next life."
"I don't think this is an excessive wish, what do you think?"
