Chapter 658: Naise Scroll

The etheric passage looks very long, but in fact, Gavin only took three steps to reach the witch's hut. This is destined by the plasticity of the consciousness of the etheric plane. The laws of physics are very vague here, but consciousness becomes omnipotent here and can shape everything. As long as you are strong enough, you can even become the creator god and create an etheric half plane where everything is created by you.

Filanxini's hut looks like a hut on the outside, but the space inside is much larger than you think. It has a multi-layered structure and a spiral staircase. This is a wizard tower.

This situation is not unique to Feilanxini's magic hut. Most wizards' wizard towers have non-material space, as if not doing so is not enough to show the style of the wizard tower. However, it is indeed useful. Many thieves who steal from the wizard tower or abandon the wizard tower for exploration often fall into the conventional experience in the past. It is lucky to pass by the treasure. Many people don't even know how they died.

Therefore, even if many wizard towers have been abandoned for hundreds of years, they have never been thoroughly explored - spellcasters with this ability often look down on them, and those who want to explore them do not have this ability.

At least Gavin will not explore a dangerous wizard tower or dungeon for the sake of unknown treasures. If he has this time, he might as well think about leading his army to eat up that valuable territory. The loot he plundered is dozens of times the total output of a wizard tower or dungeon, not to mention the subsequent value, unless this matter itself coincides with his own strategic goals, such as exploring and attacking the dwarf statue city.

And at his level, some things don't need him to take action at all. Just delegate tasks directly, or issue bounties through the contribution system, and countless people will rush to help him.

After entering the magic hut of Felanxini, Gavin's attention was immediately attracted by the thing in the middle. It was a platform half a person's height, on which was placed a huge magic book. The entire page was cut from a piece of calf leather. If it was stood up, it would be more than half a person's height. The thickness was also amazing, especially the golden color of the book, with countless ancient and winding snake-like words written on it. There was no need to use spells to identify them. Just seeing them for the first time, you can be sure that they have powerful and magical magic.

Gavin couldn't help but said in a lost voice: "This is a Nether scroll! A magic book made of Nether scroll!"

He used an affirmative sentence, not a question. Now he finally understood why Felanxini was so vigilant and why a legendary red robe wizard was thinking about her magic book. It was not only because she had the Nether scroll in her hand, but she had the Nether scroll, the core secret of the rise of the Nether Empire.

The Nether Empire was originally just an alliance of fishing villages around the Moon Sea. They had to unite in order to survive. It was just one of many intelligent races.

His real rise began with the acquisition of the Nether Scroll.

The Nether Scroll was created by a Saruk witch organization named Betis. They wrote the countless primitive magics bestowed by the Cosmic Serpent on the golden snake skin of the Cosmic Serpent into scrolls, and then spread them to other intelligent life forms. The purpose was to study the different forms of primitive magic used by different intelligent races. This happened 30,000 years ago.

The Saruk witches were the first intelligent civilization on the planet Toril. They were also called the Serpent God Race, the Creator of Scaly Creatures, and one of the five ancestral races. They created and transformed the scaly races of various forms such as snakemen, lizardmen, naga and six-armed snake demons, in order to serve themselves.

Since the Sarruk has many appearances, including the hateful snake-man that the snake-men strive to emulate, and the image of the six-armed snake demon with a human upper body and a snake lower body, and some even have wings, so now these scaly people all claim that they are the final evolutionary direction, and the others are deformed.

In fact, the ultimate evolutionary goal of all scaly people is to become a Sarruk.

Today, the Sarruk has become a part of history, not to mention the civilization they created. Only a few Sarruk have survived in hidden corners, but the golden scroll they created, the Nether Scroll, has been passed down to this day and plays a pivotal role in the history of the planet Toril.

Five thousand years ago, a Saruk witch lich named Asindor transformed into a human archmage and appeared in front of the Netherese. He translated the Nether scroll for them, granted them the most primitive magic skills, and fast-forwarded the entire empire, allowing them to run wild on the road of magic exploration and create a series of brilliant achievements, including the Nether Core, the energy core that makes the floating city rise. It was also created by Iolum when he studied the Nether scroll, not his personal achievement, so it is called the Nether Core, not the Iolum Core.

Although the Nether scroll has as many as 32 volumes, and the one in front of us is only one of them, the value contained in it is also inestimable, at least it is an artifact-level existence, and the combination of the 32 volumes will be the supreme artifact.

What exactly is Felance?

Those who can hold the Nether scroll are definitely not an ordinary legendary arcanist.

I accidentally dug up a gold mine beyond imagination.

"Yes, this magic book is made of a Netherese scroll, called the Tome of Iorum." Since Flancini let Gavin enter her wizard tower and see this magic book, she did not intend to continue to hide it.

"The Tome of Iorum? Don't tell me that the archmage Iorum is your teacher!!!" Gavin's tone couldn't help but rise three notes.

There was no way, Iorum was too famous in Toril. He was the greatest archmage of the Netherese Empire, without a doubt. His birth was regarded by later generations as a symbol of the rise of the Netherese Empire. Just the creation of the first Netherese core and the rise of the first floating city Sinrenar were enough to make him engraved in the history of Toril civilization and could never be erased.

Not to mention, his series of achievements in arcane magic made arcane magic more popular, created a series of arcane academies, trained a large number of low- and middle-level arcane masters, and made the floating city have a mass base - do you think a great arcane master can raise a floating city with a group of warriors who know nothing about spells?

Each floating city is a huge air battleship that can not only fly in the sky, but also enter other planes. To operate it, it must be coordinated by a large number of spellcasters.

The reason why no force can raise a floating city now is not only the fault of manufacturing methods, but also the lack of a sufficient base of spellcasting people. Even the current mage kingdom Halrua, compared with the peak period of the Netheril Empire, not only has less than one-tenth of its national strength, but also less than one percent of the popularization of spell education.

To be frank, the prototype of the magic system engraved on the magic web was created by Iolum, but his most talked-about spells are two legendary spells - Iolum's Immortality and Netheril's Dragon Transformation.

Netheril's Dragon Transformation is as simple and direct as its name, allowing the caster to transform into a dragon. Not only does it have the appearance, but it also has a series of special and supernatural abilities possessed by dragons, such as fierce momentum, dragon breath, etc., and even some of its personalities are somewhat similar to those of the transformed dragon, truly transforming into a dragon.

It is said that in order to study this spell, Iorum dissected dozens of dragons of different races alive, from young dragons to ancient dragons. At the same time, humans were marked as the most hated by metal dragons and colored dragons. Netheril Dragon Transformation was regarded as a spell that blasphemed dragons. Once the user of this spell was encountered, not only would the colored dragons attack without reason, but the metal dragons would also attack directly with a high probability.

Because this spell touched the sacred and inviolable status of the dragon, if the dragon wanted to grow to the ancient stage, it would have to live for at least a thousand years, while human spellcasters only needed hundreds or even decades to have a life dice that matched the transformed dragon. A legendary spell could do this. If everyone could transform into a dragon, where would they, the real dragons, be?

With the unremitting efforts of all the dragons, Netheril Dragon Transformation was lost. At least in the entire Faerun continent, no one dared to publicly claim that they had mastered Netheril Dragon Transformation.

Iolum's longevity spell is one of the best choices for those short-lived races to pursue longevity. With this spell, Iolum has lived for more than three thousand years. As a human being, this is the most precious part of this spell. The longevity methods such as lich and vampire all change the nature of their race, need to give up many things (such as human emotions), and bear serious curses (such as vampires are afraid of sunlight and blood addiction).

It's just that this legendary spell didn't spread at the beginning. In addition to Iolum himself, only one other person can use it, his closed disciple Tabora. Legend has it that she used this spell to slaughter a mind sucking monster city, Irene Tower City, a thousand years ago.

Iolum's magic book is most likely to record these two legendary spells.

This also explains why Felanxini, as an arcane master, knows so much knowledge of the orcs and helps Gavin build a powerful orc soul tower.

Because the advanced profession of the Soul Master was created by Iolum in the later period of his life. Because of this incident, he offended the entire mind sucking monster race and eventually died at the hands of the mind sucking monster.

"I didn't have the opportunity to listen to the teachings of the Great Archmage." Felanxini denied, "But my professional inheritance is indeed related to him. He is my teacher's teacher."

"Teacher's teacher?" Gavin's eyes lit up, "Your teacher is not Tabora, right?"

Tabora is Gavin's backup choice for the Soul Master's path. It is in a market town village called Bagwit Hotel, only a few hundred kilometers away from here.

The reason why she was listed as a backup choice was not because she was not strong enough, but on the contrary, because she was too strong. She was an old monster who had lived for nearly two thousand years. In order to avenge Iolum, she slaughtered a large city of mind flayers. This incident gave her almost eternal life.

Even if a tree lives for two thousand years, it will become extraordinary, not to mention the Great Archmage who had the most powerful strength two thousand years ago.

Gavin was afraid that once he appeared in front of the other party, all his secrets would be exposed.

But as his power gradually increased, Gavin found that his initial worries were unnecessary. When he reached the level of these old monsters, none of them had not been to other planes. It is estimated that the so-called sons of the planes have seen a lot. To them, he is just a variable in Toril, representing a possibility. Before he grows up to have the matching strength, he is nothing. They will not kill for this. If they really do so, the whole Toril will be destroyed by them first.

Even through the heavy mist veil, Gavin can clearly feel the tangled breath revealed by Felanxini, and finally nodded and said: "Yes, my teacher is Ms. Tabora, the last student of Iollum. As for other things, don't ask more, and you are not allowed to ask my teacher for help. Tell me my current situation. If you dare to do so, you will never see me again."

Since Gavin knows the name Tabora, it means that he knows her whereabouts, and Felanxini naturally wants to eliminate this possibility.

"I understand." Gavin wisely chose not to ask further. It was obvious that there was a problem in the relationship between the master and the apprentice. It was not hatred. He felt more guilt and remorse from Felanshini. Since he started the perception-type special ability of making friends with wine and improving the use of negative energy, his perception ability in this area has become very strong.

"Let's start analyzing the dream-telling technique." Felanshini obviously didn't want to dwell too much on this matter, so she directly diverted her attention.

As she spoke, she had walked to the side of the Iolum Book. With the infusion of her magic power, this large and amazing magic book automatically flipped, and the magic words on it seemed to come alive, pouring out from it one after another, floating directly above the magic book.

These magic runes were quickly fiddled with by Felanshini's slender fingers, and were disassembled into magic rune formulas of varying lengths, many of which were very similar to the first and second ring spells.

After being disassembled by Felancini, a complex five-ring spell, Dreaming, became very simple. Gavin only needed to force himself to remember the basic magic rune formulas and the order of low-level spells that he had mastered. Shorthand was what he was best at now, and this was the most intuitive benefit brought by super intelligence.

Obviously, Felancini was not just preparing a five-ring dreaming spell, but dismantling and reorganizing it on its basis, integrating the construction concept of Dragon Oak Dream and some basic operating data just obtained from Gavin, and building her own dream.

Felancini's dream was just software, and her magic tower and the Book of Iollum would provide hardware support. The process of analyzing the dreaming spell was also the process of her initial construction of her own dream.

In the end, not only was there a large number of magic runes flashing on the Book of Iollum, but the entire magic hut was lit up, and magic runes emerged from the bricks and stones one by one. As the order of these magic runes was adjusted, the positions of these bricks and stones also began to change and adjust.

The wizard towers of wizards are naturally not made of ordinary bricks and stones. If there are any, they are just stone towers where wizards live, and they are not qualified to be called wizard towers.

Since every brick and stone that can be named a wizard tower must have been enchanted by the owner of this wizard tower, and basic magic runes are engraved in it. When these bricks and stones are arranged and combined to form a building, it is not surprising to open various special abilities and magic abilities.

And this is only the lowest level wizard tower. In order to make their wizard towers have inexhaustible energy, those powerful wizards often go to various elemental planes to capture various powerful elemental creatures, and then use them as the core to build a magic array in their wizard towers to absorb the elemental power of the inner planes for their own use.

This is why the masters of those wizard towers have been dead for hundreds or even thousands of years, but their wizard towers are still in operation and various powerful magic traps are still effective. If there is no external destruction, in theory, such wizard towers can exist forever.

The highest level wizard tower is the Flancini Magic House, which not only has the above two functions, but also its own components can be adjusted to a certain extent according to the will of the wizard tower owner, thus producing various special abilities, and such wizard towers are usually hard to come by.

Because the energy core that supports this kind of wizard tower is usually no longer a variety of imprisoned elemental creatures, but a variety of more unique and powerful existences, such as artifacts.

The energy core of the Flancini Wizard Tower is the Book of Iolum. As the reorganization continues, a huge suction force is generated, and countless ether mists are forcibly absorbed by it and become part of it.

In the past, the ether mist trapped this wizard tower like an invisible chain, but now the situation is completely reversed.

I don't know if it was Gavin's illusion, but most of the power of the mist that originally shrouded Filanxini was forcibly extracted. Originally, there were countless layers of gauze between the two of them, but now it has become only a thin layer that can be broken with a poke. This has instead aroused people's desire to spy and want to see the real face behind.

It is a pity that when Felanshini finished reorganizing her magic tower, the last layer of mist like gauze was always thinning instead of disappearing completely. Gavin, who failed to see the true face of the legendary arcanist as he wished, did not feel too much regret and loss. If the problem of the fear demiplane was so easy to solve, it would not have been so notorious in the continent of Faerun for so many years. However, Felanshini's condition showed that they found the right direction this time, but their current strength was too weak to tear apart this bondage.

I recovered from the cold and took the opportunity to rest. Now I am trying to save the number of manuscripts.

I found that I was less likely to waste when I had more manuscripts. Once the number of manuscripts was too low, I would easily break the jar and break the jar! !

Hey hey hey... people are degenerate! !

After taking leave, I feel a little wasteful. I have been lazy these days and don't want to move at all
