Richard's questions were filled with resentment. This time, Richard felt that he was just a little bit away from death.
Aragorn has been playing a secret game in front of him, hiding most of the information. He only eats and does nothing. He clearly knows the information about the God Envoy Rand but does not tell Richard. He also hides key information about the function of the Elf King Ring.
.
Originally, everyone was scheming and hiding secrets, and no one could tell anyone else. But in such a serious crisis this time, Aragorn still hid his secrets and almost fought GG together. Anyway, Richard took advantage of Li Zi this time.
, I have to express my complaints no matter what, and at the same time understand this ring that is comparable to a magic weapon.
"This ring, I want to know everything about it."
Richard showed Aragorn the ring in his hand, and Archangel Mills, sensing the atmosphere, put his hand on the sword again, as if he was ready to take action at any time.
Aragorn stared at the ring in Richard's hand for a while. Richard did not urge him, but just kept staring at Aragorn's eyes, waiting for an explanation. Aragorn was silent for a while and sighed, and said as if accepting his fate:
"The full name of this ring is the Ring of the Rebellious Elf King, or it's also called the God-Killing Ring."
"Killing God?"
Richard knew the name of the rebellious Elf King's Ring. The system gave it its full name when it was repaired, but he didn't expect it to have another such a domineering name.
"Yes, because it is a treasure that can kill gods. The man who created it, the mad emperor Kalis, was the emperor of the Elf Empire in its last glorious period. Some people also say that the decline of the Elf Empire was due to the decline of the demonic tide.
Leith is also half responsible."
The collapse of the empire must have been caused by many reasons. Richard quite agrees with this. If the low magic tide is the fundamental reason, meeting an unreliable emperor will definitely speed up the process.
"According to records, Kallis is the emperor with the best magical talent in the history of the Elf Empire. He has outstanding talent, and the entire empire provides him with training resources. He soon reached an unprecedented level in magic cultivation.
Kalis, who has reached his limit in magic practice, begins to try to get involved in God's domain - the rules."
"Just like the Lieyang Qi-inducing technique we practice?"
Aragorn nodded and did not deny what Richard said. Magic cultivation and fighting spirit cultivation are actually different paths leading to the same goal. In the end, they will all involve the level of the essential rules of the world.
"But during the Elf Empire, most of the rules were controlled by gods. The Elf Empire was a country that worshiped gods. Almost every named god had a temple to worship it."
"Snatching the power of rules from the gods?"
"To be precise, it should be about releasing, not robbing. It is just about releasing the authority held by the gods. Kallis did not obtain those authorities."
"Can the gods who control the rules use the rules at will?"
"Five hundred years ago, before the Lord of the Rising Sun was severely injured by me, I even made the kingdom unable to see the sun for three days."
When Richard heard Aragorn's words, he knew the seriousness of the situation. These rules that should be running naturally can be manipulated by the gods at will, and others are not allowed to get involved. This is really intolerable.
Aragorn seemed to have started talking, and continued without stopping:
"The gods have been enshrined in the temples by the elves. This has been the case for thousands of years. No one seemed to think there was anything wrong. Until Kalis appeared. When he studied magic to the extreme, he naturally touched the so-called gods.
At this time, Kallis has only two choices, either to stop his exploration or to become an enemy of the gods."
Obviously, Callis chose the latter.
"Because gods are theoretically immortal and ordinary attacks are ineffective against them, Kallis gathered the power of the entire empire to create this ring. Attacks launched from it can directly impact the divine soul."
"Um?"
"The traditional magic categories are all about elements such as water and fire, and at most there are variations such as ice and thunder. The soul has always been within the taboo range. The research on the soul is not allowed by the gods, because the research on the soul will eventually fall into
It will pose a threat to the gods."
"The civilians of the Elf Empire have enough respect for the gods, but most of the magisters who really stand at the top of the empire have no firm beliefs. Since the beginning of Kallis' plan, many magisters of the Elf Empire have joined the research.
The gods in the Supreme Capital did not pay attention to Kalis's actions at the beginning, and it was not until a key breakthrough was made in the research that the gods realized the seriousness of the problem."
"The gods issued an oracle, asking the Elf Empire to terminate this research, but Kalis is not someone who will obey the gods easily. Moreover, the research has reached the final stage. Kalis and a group of elven magisters who participated in the research
Ignoring the warning of the gods, he accelerated the research progress and finally angered the gods.
The gods imposed divine punishment and vowed to make Kalis bow his head. The magisters that the elven empire was proud of were completely unable to fight against the gods. The gods manipulated the rules, and all the elemental powers that the elven magisters were once proud of were difficult to fight.
Play.”
"What about the final result?"
Richard asked at the right time. Whenever a person starts to brag, no matter whether he is interested or not, he must compliment him out of politeness so that the other party has the motivation to continue talking. Not to mention that Richard has nothing to do with this kind of ancient times.
He was also very interested in the affairs of the Elf Empire and the gods, so he naturally urged Aragorn to continue talking.
"Do you think the elf failed?"
"Um."
Richard nodded. In his opinion, if the huge elven empire was defeated, it must be a failure.
Aragorn shook his head and continued:
"Actually, in a sense, the elves won. The mad emperor Kallis was indeed a genius, and he quickly completed the God-killing Ring."
"The God-killing Ring has three abilities: God-killing, Transformation and Imprisonment. Among them, God-killing and Imprisonment correspond to the activation of two different elf spells. God-killing is the ability you just used, which absorbs all the power that can be absorbed from the holder.
Concentrated in the ring, it is transformed into an impact on the soul. The power depends on the user's own strength.
If you use it like the Mad Emperor Kalis, you don't even need to use all your strength. A god with medium divine power will be directly killed in one blow. If you activate it instead..."
At this point Aragorn paused before continuing:
"To be honest, I'm a little surprised that you still have the energy to talk to me now."
In fact, what Richard was hit with this time was not because of his own fighting spirit, but because he used the God-killing Ring at the last minute before the effectiveness of the Angel Necklace expired, squeezing the effect of the Angel Necklace to the extreme.
"As for the second confinement effect, some powerful gods cannot be easily annihilated, so they use the confinement ability after severely injuring them to imprison their consciousness in the God-killing Ring and slowly destroy it."
Hearing this, Richard glanced at Aragorn subconsciously. Why did he feel that this guy was the soul imprisoned in the God-killing Ring? If the imprisonment also had the function of erasing, wouldn't he be dead long ago?
"Ahem, after getting the ring, I also discovered another function of it. If it is a controller, it can avoid being wiped out, and it can also nourish itself through the energy it transforms. This should be what Kallis reserved for himself at that time.
It’s a little bit of a backup plan, but I don’t know why it’s useless.”
After hearing this, Richard felt that he had indeed found a treasure this time. Although the cost of using it once was a bit outrageous, it was an item that could directly threaten the gods.
Richard was smart enough not to ask Aragorn about the use of spells to imprison and destroy such functions. He kept a tightrope in doing things. Moreover, if he asked Aragorn, he would definitely not tell him. If he could teach him to use the function of killing gods, Aragorn was already forced to do so.
He only taught it when he was in a desperate situation and had no other options. Aragorn might have been thinking about how to get the ring back before.
"Since the Elf Emperor Kallis won, why did the Elf Empire still collapse?"
Logically speaking, since even the gods have been overthrown, the elves should become the rulers of the world.
