Imrik thought of the demi-lich who gave him the legendary super-demon pearl. The other person seemed to be the so-called [quasi-god], an existence beyond legend. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he had seen the demi-lich Paratis.
The strongest existence, but such an existence actually believed that he would be stronger than him in the future, which made Imrik couldn't help but feel a sense of expectation in his heart.
Now that he has the broken magic crystal, he has more confidence. The power of the broken magic crystal is even comparable to that of a legendary mage, no, even stronger, because it can cast a legendary spell once a day for free, which is even more powerful than a legendary mage.
Things that can't be done.
There are 144 energy levels, which means that Imrik can command the Magic Crystal to use up to 16 nine-level spells in one day! Even the legendary mage does not have so many nine-level spell slots.
"However, your energy accumulation speed seems a bit slow. You can only accumulate 12 energy levels in an hour. Is there any way to speed up this speed, or increase the upper limit of your energy storage?"
Imrik touched his chin and asked. He was used to unlimited spellcasting in the Endless Book, but he still felt that the energy of the broken magic crystal was a bit insufficient. Of course, if he let other mages know this idea, he would be angry to death, even if it was a war.
Even the 16 ninth-level spell slots cannot be consumed. It can be said that if Kessell hadn't been stupid, the army of the Ten Towns would have had no chance.
The broken magic crystal said with some hesitation: "Do you think my power is not enough? The speed of energy accumulation is easy to solve. If I can connect to your magic network and absorb energy without limit, I can increase the speed to every
The energy level of 60 hours per hour and the current speed are also caused by the fact that the magic network is restricted by the great gods and I am unable to absorb power beyond the nine environmental realms. Sunlight is a catalyst for me, and what really provides energy is the magic power itself. "
"But it may not be easy to increase my energy limit. My existence is the result of the joint efforts of seven powerful quasi-god-like lichs who dedicated their lives. Maybe you can find a way to reach a more powerful state in the future, but
Now I don’t know either.”
Imrik raised his eyebrows. The accumulation speed of sixty energy levels in one hour was enough, but when the broken magic crystal saw Imrik's expression, he seriously reminded: "Powerful creator of the magic network, I must
Remind you, never use your ability to create magic nets in Kingdom Heaven easily."
Then he continued to say in a low and emotionless voice: "The priesthood is forbidden to all gods and is the seat of divinity. When it comes to the priesthood, any kind god will be more extreme than the stingiest devil. The kingdom and heaven are his territory.
, the Magic Network is also the priest of that person, if you create a new Magic Network here, it will have unimaginable consequences, and even lead to divine punishment!"
It finally said quietly: "I believe your future is great, but no matter how powerful you are, please remember that there is an essential gap between mortal power and divine power. Even a drop of divine power is not yours."
It can be faced.”
Imric was quite happy after hearing this. Fortunately, he had never triggered the magic network feature of the Endless Book in Faerûn. He did not expect that the gods would be so extreme in the clergy field.
However, after hearing the description of the divine power by the broken magic crystal, he couldn't help but wonder: "What is the divine power? Is it a power exclusive to God? Is it so powerful?"
Broken Demon Crystal said in an extremely complicated tone: "Divine power is a kind of energy, just like magic, just like all the energy in nature, it is a kind of energy."
Imric was even more curious: "Then why is it so powerful?"
The broken magic crystal replied: "Because of faith, the faith of intelligent creatures is an unexplainable energy. It is as idealistic as psychic powers, but more magical and powerful. The heads of the seven lichs who created me once traveled in the star world.
At that time, an ancient stone tablet was found on the corpse of a god, recording the secret of divine power."
"Divine power is an omnipotent energy that is extremely compressed and condensed by the daily devout beliefs of intelligent creatures. Every drop is extremely precious and extremely powerful. According to the record of the inscription, if a quasi-god wants to obtain a drop of divine power, he must possess
It took 300,000 devout true believers praying day after day for 999 years to compress this huge faith into a drop of divine power."
"From here, you can imagine how powerful divine power is. Countless huge beliefs that are more miraculous than spiritual energy have been accumulated for thousands of years before a drop of divine power can be achieved. The difference in quantity alone is enough to crush countless legends."
Imrik was shocked. He knew how powerful the gods were, but he did not expect that there was such a big gap between the powers of the gods and mortals. This was a real quantitative change leading to a qualitative change.
No wonder, to the gods, there is not much difference between a legend and a fragile farmer. In their eyes, they are just ants.
"As for the use of divine power, I'm not sure. After all, I have never possessed a drop of divine power, but the stone tablet says that divine power is a kind of universal energy. I think it may be like a wish-making spell that can make things come true.
Anything." Shattered Magic Crystal said uncertainly.
Imrik couldn't help but be filled with fighting spirit. Knowing the gap between gods and mortals, he strengthened his determination to pursue the power of gods. Imagine that the magic created by the magic of nature can do so many incredible things.
.
If he became a god and used divine power as an energy source to develop spells, how powerful would it be? Can the Endless Book even record spells of that level?
The mage's heart was full of expectations for the future, but he was very vigilant in reminding himself not to be too impatient. The road to pursuing godhood is extremely long and lonely. Step by step at your own pace is the wisest choice.
——
Faerûn, Waterdeep.
Imric teleported himself back to the mansion on the streets of Hashantil through the [Twilight Star]. He also took back the copper furnace from Myth Drannor and placed it in the backyard.
The butler was not frightened by Imric's sudden appearance. In fact, Imrik would stop by the residence every month to take a look when he came back to deal with the affairs of the Ryldea Tavern.
Ryldea Tavern has now become one of the most popular high-end restaurants and hotels in Waterdeep City, bringing him more than 150,000 gold coins every year. Excluding labor and food costs, the annual profit has reached 120,000.
Gold coins or more, the occupancy rate of the guest rooms upstairs remains above 80% all year round, making it almost the most famous place in the North District.
"Sir, someone sent a wedding invitation last month." The butler handed Imric a gorgeous red envelope.
Imric opened it and took a look, with a playful smile on his face. It was Sophia's wedding invitation, and the person she was marrying was the grandson of the legendary mage Kelben Blackstaff.
The official dnd description of divine power is too vague and too general. I have added some numerical settings to make the power of divine power more reasonable.
