When he thought of this, Lin Li felt a little wary in his heart. According to Adela, Thain was already a strong man in the legendary realm. There were very few things in this world that could attract him. Why do he still have to do it every year?
Have you ever come to the Black Rock Mountains?
Could it be because of the darkness in the cave...
It's not a good thing to look at the same thing as a legendary strongman...
"By the way, I wonder what Magician Fei Lei thinks of the land of Death Mark?" After Adela briefly introduced her teacher, she did not continue, but strangely changed
a topic.
"Scar of Death?" Lin Li frowned: "I think there must be a strange power permeating the Mark of Death. This power can continuously produce undead creatures, and..."
"And the undead creatures spawned by this power will be more powerful than ever..." Adela smiled and took over the words: "The views of Magician Fei Lei are totally inconsistent with Teacher Thain's.
And, twenty years ago, when Teacher Thain entered the Scar of Death for the first time, he said the same thing as you..."
"Yeah……"
"The time we entered the Death Trace, we encountered two battles in total. The first battle was when we encountered a large number of skeleton warriors, and finally we barely escaped from the cave last night. The second battle took place in this cave.
It's a pity that I lost consciousness at that time and did not witness the whole battle process with my own eyes. I only knew that when I woke up, I had returned to Arminia City, and the person who took me all the way back to Arminia City
Teacher Thain, the magic fluctuations are much weaker, almost no different from an ordinary great magician..."
"Oh?" Lin Li was surprised when he heard this. He had never seen such a thing like a legendary magician turning into a great magician. Isn't that what happened to Uyfalusi? After the battle in the ruins of Char Town, from the wizard
The demon turned into an eighteenth-level great mage, but the cause of all this was the unique Holy Light. It was his full blow with the Holy Light that destroyed the extremely powerful Skeleton Realm and allowed Wu Yifa to
Lu Xi fell from the legendary realm.
And what happened to this Thane?
At this time, Lin Li was really full of doubts, but he didn't ask anything, just nodded, and listened quietly again, because he knew very well that since Adela used such a thing as an opening statement
, then he will naturally tell himself everything.
It turned out that Lin Li's guess was not wrong. After Adela breathed a sigh of relief, he continued: "Teacher Thain did not explain the battle that took place in this cave in detail. He just told me that he
I encountered the most powerful enemy in my life in this cave. The battle at that time could almost be described as brutal. Although Mr. Thain won in the end, the advantage was quite weak and almost negligible. Moreover, Teacher Thain was very
I soon discovered that the power of this enemy was quite strange. It seemed to be the fusion of the entire Death Trace. No matter what method Mr. Thain used, he could not kill it completely. In the end, he had to temporarily sacrifice the power of the legendary realm.
It must be sealed, and every year after that, the mark of death must be applied to strengthen the seal left at that time."
"It's a wonderful story..." Lin Li smiled and then asked strangely: "But isn't this very good? Why do you still need to send an advance team into the Death Scar?"
"Because a few years later, Teacher Thain discovered something related to the Mark of Death in the ruins of a high elf..."
"oh?"
"That is a diary, a diary written by a high elf noble. Perhaps because of the age, most of the content has become blurred. The only paragraph that can still be identified is about the research on undead magic.
, it is said that at that time, a considerable number of high elf nobles had shaken the idea of "living gods". They began to seek eternal life in other ways, so undead magic appeared in their field of vision. They felt that this was the path to immortality.
The only way to achieve immortality is that some of the high elf nobles established a research base in the Blackstone Mountains. Unfortunately, the war broke out just after the research started. The high elf nobles who longed for immortality had to temporarily stop research and invest their limited resources into the war.
Go in..." When Adela said this, she paused for a moment: "As for what happened next, the book has already written it very clearly. The coalition forces shot down six cities in the sky, next to the throne of the Eternal Tree.
Killing Her Majesty the Queen ended the dark and cruel rule of the high elves, and this undead magic research base hidden in the Blackstone Mountains was forever annihilated in the long river of time..."
Lin Li had been listening quietly, as if he was listening to a story that had nothing to do with him. If he only looked at his calm expression, no one would be able to understand the excitement in this young magician's heart...
Lin Li took a long breath and managed to calm down the excitement in his heart, but what kept flashing through his mind were the words Adela just said.
Adela's words almost immediately reminded Lin Li of a person - or a high elf. Yes, it was Nofele's former master, the half-brother of the great lord, who was underground in the Demon-Slaying Valley.
In the palace, Giovanni transformed himself into a lich!
Lin Li didn't know much about Giovanni. He only knew that among the high elf nobles, Giovanni was the first to study necromancy, and he was also the first to regard necromancy as a way to immortality.
According to Nofeile's recollection, all this happened because Qiao Fan entered the tomb of the Immortal King by an extremely accidental opportunity...
As for where the tomb is and what secrets are hidden in the tomb, Nophele doesn't know that much. The existence of the Immortal King itself is a mystery that even the high elves have not solved. Even Lin Li, a company
The unlucky guy who was twice regarded as the Immortal King only learned some information from the former lich after signing a soul contract with Uyfalusi...
The time when the Immortal King appeared should be between the Dark Ages and the Prehistoric Age. At that time, the war between the dragons and the Titans had just ended, and the high elves born under the Eternal Tree had just risen. The Immortal King appeared at that time.
, in the legend of the High Elves, the Immortal King at that time was the most powerful existence in the entire Anriel world. Even the entire High Elf dynasty was established with the help of the Immortal King...
It’s just that I don’t know why. There are very few records about the Immortal King in the high elf classics. Even when it is unavoidable, there is only a vague mention,
So much so that throughout the Dark Ages, scholars of the High Elves debated endlessly over the origin of the Immortal King.
There are some views that the Immortal King is the last Titan in the prehistoric era. There are also some views that the Immortal King is the incarnation of a certain god. There are even some views that the Immortal King is actually the other side of Her Majesty the Queen.
An identity, in short, a variety of opinions, everyone wants to convince the other, but no one can provide enough evidence.
This debate lasted for countless years, until the High Elf dynasty fell, humans occupied more than 80% of the land in Anriel's world, and the name of the Immortal King was gradually lost in the long river of time.
Maybe, Giovanni knows some truth...
Of course, there will definitely not be too many. Otherwise, in the underground palace of the Demon-Slaying Valley, Nofeile would not regard himself as an immortal king. There is also the powerful soul from the Shadow Valley. I am afraid that he will also follow him.
Giovanni was also misled...
Lin Li always felt that all this was just a coincidence.
But now, Lin Li had to have some doubts in his mind. If everything was a coincidence, would it be too much of a coincidence? The same high elf nobles who wanted to obtain immortality through undead magic also had seven stars.
One of the fragments, if the name Immortal King appears here again, I'm afraid I will have to study it carefully...
Lin Li had various thoughts running through his mind, and Adela's story continued: "But Teacher Thain discovered that everything was not over. The high elf nobles left, but the entire research base continued to operate.
"
"What?" Lin Li was thinking about something when he suddenly heard this sentence and was shocked: "Ah...Magic Adela, are you trying to tell me that in the Thirteen Hundred Years?
Today, years later, this research base is still presided over by a high elf noble, right?"
"No, no, no, the person who presides over the entire research base is not a certain high elf noble, but an altar located in the center of the research base..."
"Is this the altar you mentioned at the beginning?"
"That's right..." Adela nodded, and then continued: "According to Teacher Thain, the construction technology used in this altar can almost be said to be the crystallization of construction science in the entire dark age.
To describe it as breathtaking, the reason why the Trace of Death is always shrouded by a strange force is because of the existence of this altar. The altar itself has the power to transform living beings into undead, and every living being is transformed into an undead.
Provide power to the altar in the form of sacrifices, and this power will continue to support the operation of the altar..."
This kind of chicken-and-egg-egg theory of cause and effect, repeated over and over like a tongue twister, made Lin Li's forehead full of black lines. At this time, Lin Li really wanted to ask Adela, what's your mother's last name?
Of course, Lin Li didn't ask anything in the end because he had almost understood...
Although Adela's words are messy, the truth behind them is not difficult to understand. To put it simply, the altar turns the living and the undead into a cycle, which goes back and forth and never stops...
