Chapter 186 A ceremony that lasted more than 1,200 years
"So until the year 2000 of the Starlight Calendar, when the plane barriers were almost fully restored, those wizards returned one after another."
After reading the information recorded in those books, Sunan finally understood why the Starlight Continent had been able to remain peaceful for thousands of years without any wizards entering.
It turns out that it was not because they didn't want to, but because they couldn't.
"But in this way, except for the elemental plane, I can't leave the Starlight Continent to go to other planes now."
Sunan shook his head.
He didn't mind it very much. After all, he didn't have the ability to travel through planes, so even if he wanted to leave the Starlight Continent, he couldn't do it.
In fact, if he thought about it in a positive way, the current situation of the Starlight Continent might be a good thing for him.
Although it was a little difficult to practice, it at least gave him a stable environment for development.
At least in the next seven hundred years, he didn't have to worry about other wizards or high-level beings coming to harass him.
As for seven hundred years later, if everything went well, he would have enough power to protect himself.
"Anyway, let's develop steadily first."
Sunan thought secretly and put down the book.
Just then, the door suddenly knocked.
"Come in."
The door opened, Carolina walked in, and handed over a war report.
"Master, this is the war report from Flash City."
Sunan took the war report, opened it, and raised his eyebrows in surprise.
The Cangjin Empire surrendered?
However, after being surprised, Sunan soon realized that the scepter probably played a significant role behind the scenes.
The war report also mentioned that the condition for the surrender of the Cangjin Empire was that the Star Alliance guaranteed not to harm the Cangjin royal family, and Keyi had already accepted this condition.
"The establishment of the academy must be accelerated."
Sunan thought secretly.
As soon as the war is over, the Star Principality is expected to hold a new round of qualification tests soon. At that time, more apprentices will be sent to the base, and the academy must be established as soon as possible.
Starlight calendar year 1269, harvest month (September).
The Cangjin Empire announced its surrender.
So far, the hegemonic empire that has dominated the southeast region of the continent for more than 400 years has come to an end.
The Star Alliance accepted the surrender of the Cangjin Empire at the first opportunity, and the army stationed there took over all the territories of the empire.
In this war, the Principality of Stars became the biggest winner, annexing about two-thirds of the territory of the Cangjin Empire.
The remaining one-third of the territory was divided among the other eight countries.
In the same month, the Principality of Stars announced that it would be renamed the Star Empire.
So far, stepping on the corpse of the Cangjin Empire, the Star Empire has become the new overlord of the southeast region of the continent.
After the war, the atmosphere in the southeast region of the continent did not become peaceful and relaxed, but became more tense.
Many eyes were focused on the Star Empire.
No one knew whether this country would continue the unfinished hegemony of the Cangjin Empire and try to change from the overlord of the southeast region to the only ruler of the southeast region.
In the quiet little house, the moonlight came in from the window and spread on the long table, as if covered with a layer of light gauze.
Qiangwei opened her eyes and looked at where Su Nan was. When the familiar figure came into view, she couldn't help but feel complicated emotions deep in her heart.
When she sensed that the key of the trading house was activated, she knew that it must be Su Nan who did it. After hesitating for a long time, she finally came to the party.
She was very curious, what did Su Nan plan to do by gathering them?
After a while, the traveler and the scepter came in one after another.
Seeing Su Nan, both of them showed complicated eyes.
Seeing that someone who was a third-level wizard apprentice like himself not long ago has reached the realm he has always dreamed of, anyone would have complicated emotions.
After all, he was a wizard apprentice from the royal family. The scepter quickly adjusted his mentality, looked at Su Nan, and said respectfully:
"My lord, you summoned us here. Is there something?"
Facing Su Nan, who was promoted to a wizard, he also changed to a more respectful title in time.
Su Nan glanced at Rose and Traveler, and seeing that both of them were in a listening posture, he did not keep them in suspense and said straight to the point:
"I plan to establish a wizard academy. Do you want to be the academy instructor?"
Wizard academy? Instructor?
The three members of the Scepter were all stunned, their eyes were stunned.
They thought that Su Nan might want to recruit them, but they never thought that he would invite them to be the instructors of the wizard academy.
Before they could react, Su Nan continued:
"The duties of the academy instructors are mainly to teach and maintain the order of the academy. If necessary, they can also participate in some actions of the Star Alliance."
"All these can earn contribution points and be used to exchange resources."
"Including materials, potions, puppets, glimmer-level magic items, talent crystal models and construction potions, etc."
No words were as attractive as the last sentence.
The eyes of the three members of the Scepter lit up.
Rose responded immediately.
"Sir, I accept the invitation!"
When she was in Lake City, Rose had thought about joining the Star Alliance under Carolina's persuasion. Now, with the attraction of constructing potions and talent crystal models, she naturally no longer hesitated.
The Scepter then agreed.
The traveler was tangled.
What he wanted to do most was to explore various places in the Starlight Continent.
But once he joined the academy, although he did not completely lose his freedom, he would be subject to certain restrictions and could no longer leave whenever he wanted.
Freedom and becoming stronger are really difficult to choose.
In the end, it was Su Nan's light words that completely shattered his hesitation.
"The life span of a wizard is at least seven or eight hundred years. If you are promoted to a wizard, you will have more time to explore around, and you may be able to see the scenery of the outer plane in the future."
". I will join."
Seeing that the three of them agreed, Su Nan's mouth corners slightly raised.
The three of the Scepter are all outstanding third-level wizard apprentices. The youngest one has lived for hundreds of years. He is knowledgeable and experienced. It is more than enough for him to serve as a mentor in the academy to teach a group of first- and second-level wizard apprentices.
Although three mentors are a bit too few, it is enough to cope with the initial stage of the academy.
I will look for more suitable candidates later.
"Then the three of you, I will wait for you to arrive at the Flash City Base."
Spider City.
The silent night enveloped the entire city.
The rules of the dark elves are extremely strict. Without permission, races other than them are not allowed to appear on the streets at night. Even male dark elves are often subject to strict restrictions.
On the dim street, a lizard moved its limbs and ran wildly.
The patrolling dark elf guards turned their heads when they heard the sound, and put their palms on the handles of the scimitars at their waists, revealing a cold and alert look.
Only when they saw the graceful figure sitting on their backs did they let go of the handles, saluted from a distance, and turned around to continue patrolling.
Tatjana ignored the patrol team and rode her lizard mount silently through the streets. Soon she arrived in front of a huge mansion.
She patted the head of the lizard mount to stop the huge monster with eight claws, and then jumped down lightly.
The door made of pure gold was closed tightly, and the two huge spider statues on both sides silently turned their eyes, recognized the identity of the visitor, and continued to crawl, keeping silent in the dark.
The girl approached, whispered a spell, and activated the platinum brooch on her robe.
A dim light diffused from the brooch, shaping a delicate and beautiful black-skinned elf, and then transformed into a spider.
"Tatjana Filier."
The girl gave her name, and then the door opened silently and automatically.
"Welcome home."
A hoarse and harsh voice came slowly from the darkness behind the door.
Tatjana stared at the darkness in front of her, pursed her lips, and then stepped into it.
The figure of the "gatekeeper" slowly emerged from the darkness.
It was a ghost, or more accurately, a fusion of multiple ghosts.
Each of the twelve families in the Spider City has such a gatekeeper.
It is a powerful existence created by the dark elf family with secret methods to guard the family. It is the destination of the soul of every dark elf strongman in the family after death (only female dark elves).
The longer the inheritance of the dark elf family, the more powerful the gatekeeper.
Any enemy who wants to attack the family must first cross the gatekeeper.
The "gatekeeper" that appeared in front of Tatjana at this moment is the soul aggregation of 272 strong men in the history of the Filier family.
It looked like a heroic drow woman, with a graceful and attractive figure, a slender body wrapped in black leather armor, and only her eyes glowed dark red, like agate.
Tatjana waited until the shape of the gatekeeper became completely clear, then bowed slightly, then stepped forward, passed straight through the ghost's body, and entered the mansion.
This seemingly rude and childish move did not hurt the girl - as long as she wore the family brooch, she would not be harmed by the negative energy carried by the gatekeeper.
Of course, it would not hurt the gatekeeper either.
The gatekeeper slowly disappeared behind her, and the door of the mansion was closed again.
The air in the mansion was a little chilly.
The demon fire hanging on the wall could only provide some lighting, but could not emit warmth.
Tatjana wrapped her cloak tightly around her body, walked along the spider-web-like road between stalactites and stone pillars, and finally walked into the main building of the Philier family.
It was a circular temple, with a purple-black evil light flashing on the top. The outer walls were covered with various exquisite reliefs, most of which were spiders.
The huge building was like a monster lurking in the darkness, and the entrance was the monster's open mouth.
Everyone who walked into the temple was like a prey being swallowed by a monster.
The temple was dark, but Tajiana didn't care. The dark elf's natural dark vision was enough for her to see every detail around her.
She passed through the narrow and winding corridor, accurately changing direction at every corner, and finally reached the center of the temple.
This was a spacious hall.
In the center was an altar made of black marble.
Eight huge braziers were burning on the edge, and black flames rose from them, transforming into various spiders.
On the altar, there was a statue about ten feet high.
It was a mature and beautiful elf woman riding on the back of a giant hideous spider, looking down at the dark elves below like a god.
With the altar as the center, hundreds of dark elves stood around, all of them women without exception.
Most of them wore soft, well-fitting mail armor and a black cloak with the same platinum brooch as Tatjana, showing their identity as a member of the same race.
Only the eight figures standing in the far corner were wearing long robes that covered their entire bodies, and their faces and figures could not be seen clearly.
Tatjana glanced around and quickly walked to the outermost edge of the crowd and stood still.
Most people's attention was on the statue on the altar, and few people noticed Tajiana's arrival.
Except for a tall female dark elf next to her.
"You're late." Venia said in a low voice.
"No way." Tajiana replied in a low voice, "It took some time to break the city, and I left the slave transport team behind and rushed back overnight."
"Fortunately you didn't miss the ceremony."
Venia looked up at the statue on the altar, her eyes flashing with fanaticism and excitement.
"After more than 1,200 years, we can finally receive the oracle. The great Mithril has not abandoned us!"
Tagina's eyes flashed, but she didn't answer.
Although she had witnessed Mithril's miracles with her own eyes, she still had a slight doubt about Mithril.
After all, that Mithril had not appeared for more than 1,200 years. Now that he appeared, he asked the Spider City to start a war and unify the underground world. It was not known whether it was a good thing for the dark elves.
In fact, many young dark elves had the same doubts as her, but this voice was suppressed by the fanatical upper class.
"Quiet!"
A pleasant and majestic voice suddenly sounded, suppressing all whispers.
The hall suddenly became quiet.
Everyone looked at the woman who spoke.
She was a slender, pretty dark elf woman.
Her light blue eyes were as pure and transparent as crystal, and her long silver hair was soft and shiny. If you judge by her appearance alone, she is completely a young girl.
But in fact, the matron of the Philier family celebrated her 148th birthday last year, and she is already the mother of more than ten daughters.
Looking around, the matron of Philier said in a deep voice:
"The ceremony begins."
As her voice fell, strange rustling sounds suddenly came from the darkness on all sides.
Countless spiders of all sizes crawled out of the darkness and crawled towards the altar.
Their eight limbs knocked on the ground, forming a strange rhythm and rhythm.
In a blink of an eye, the altar was covered with dense spiders.
They stared at each other, as if they wanted to kill the others, but they didn't really do it.
At the same time, the eight dark elf women standing in the corner took off their robes, revealing their slender and beautiful faces and naked bodies.
They walked among the spiders, lightly jumped up the steps, walked onto the altar, stood in eight corners, and then knelt down, chanting verses of praise in unison.
Then the spiders began a brutal fight.
They waved their eight long legs, tore open the opponent's carapace with their huge jaws, pierced the flesh with their fangs, injected venom, and then bit and devoured.
The delicious flesh and soul of the loser made the winner stronger, and every time one eighth of the spiders died, a dark elf woman beside the altar melted like hot butter, turned into mist and dissipated.
Death was so terrible, but no one escaped.
The number of spiders decreased rapidly, and finally only the only winner was left.
The huge and ferocious spider trod in heavy steps and came to the last remaining dark elf woman, staring at her coldly with red eyes.
The dark elf woman was not afraid, opened her arms, and showed an ugly and dangerous smile.
The spider suddenly opened its huge jaws and bit down, and its fangs accurately pierced her skin, piercing through her flesh and blood, and the burning and numbness flowed through her body at the same time.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the dark elf woman and the spider both melted, like wax oil, and then quickly reshaped, turning into a strange creature with a black spider body in the lower half and a dark elf woman's upper body.
Spider elf!
Legend has it that the creature is favored by a certain god and has terrible and powerful power!
Looking at the new spider elf on the altar, the dark elves around showed excited and fanatical expressions.
Many people couldn't help but recite hymns in a low voice.
A happy smile from the heart appeared on the beautiful face of Mistress Philier.
Success!
As long as we have this ritual, we can create spider elves continuously.
This will be the dark elves' reliance for unifying the underground world!
The traffic jam is so bad, the second update will be late
