"Since there is already an artifact as a banned item, why is this happening now?" When I heard this, Mira, who was already fascinated, could not help but ask in a deep voice.
The old wizard opened his mouth and did not answer, only a bitter smile appeared on his face, and Leo said thoughtfully: "Count Drake was also infected by the power of the abyss at that time?"
The old wizard did not deny, nodded and admitted: "He was indeed infected, but he used his own blood therapy to extract blood from the people of Death Valley to resist the abyss and inject it into his body, so he can still stay awake. ."
"Blood therapy was created by Count Drake?" A transcendental person could not help being shocked by the news he heard now.
After all, blood therapy is notorious in the Velon world, and Lawrence, the blood wizard who is the creator of blood therapy, is even more like a devil in the dark world. If it is placed hundreds of years ago, the Orthodox Court still has great power. It may send a large number of church knights to arrest them and then burn them to the public without letting him hide under the wings of a big man.
The old wizard shook his head and denied: "The blood therapy was indeed created by Count Drake, but this blood therapy is completely different from the outside blood therapy. The two are just a coincidence."
Subsequently, the old wizard continued to tell the story of Death Valley.
As the old wizard said, under the action of the Neptune artifact, the rift was closed again, and Death Valley has returned to calm.
However, just like the high tower wizard who caused the disaster, Count Drake was also tempted by the abyss. Although he used his amazing willpower to temporarily resist the temptation of the abyss, this resistance will follow Each time the resistance to the abyss gradually weakened.
At that time, Count Drake estimated that the tower should send another wizard to take over his work, so that he could get out and drive away the power of the abyss with his help.
But what Count Drake could not think of was that the tower at that time was abandoned, and the wizards of the tower all entered the wasteland and disappeared.
So within the prescribed time, Count Drake did not wait for the new Tower Wizard to take his place, he knew that something was wrong.
According to Count Drake's original idea was to temporarily leave Death Valley and go outside to check the situation before considering the next step.
But at that time, there was a small problem with the artifact of Poseidon that was used to block the abyss fissure, so that he had to continue to sit in Death Valley and could not leave in one step.
In order to be able to understand what happened to the wizard outside the tower, Count Drake thought of a way to train an apprentice, and then let the apprentice go outside to investigate the situation.
So he chose one of the most gifted people from the residents of Death Valley and accepted it as an apprentice. This apprentice is a dwarf of the declining ethnic group in the valley, which is the wilderness wizard known by Leo.
Unlike the werewolves and blood races in the valley, before these two races were created, there were already two werewolves and blood races in the Velon world. The towering wizard at that time just passed the blood of the two races through witchcraft. The way, grafted to the two groups of residents in Death Valley, so the status of the two ethnic groups is very stable, even if there are some blood defects in the bloodline will not have any major impact on them.
However, the eagles are different. They were created out of thin air according to the legend. There is no similar blood of the clan family in advance. Therefore, there are great defects in the blood of the eagles, and the most serious of these defects is The sphinx's fertility is very low. Even if it is successfully born, many of them will die halfway, so the sphinx is almost in a state of death in Death Valley.
As a student carefully selected by Earl Drake, Wilderness Wizard is naturally very good at learning witchcraft. In just a few years, he has skipped the apprenticeship and became a formal wizard.
At this time, Count Drake also sent the Wilderness Wizard out of Death Valley according to the plan, let him go outside to find other High Tower Wizards, and then brought the High Tower Wizards back to Death Valley.
As for what the wilderness wizard has experienced in the world of Velen, no one knows. The old wizard only knew that the wilderness wizard had returned to Death Valley alone, bringing the news of the disappearance of the tower back to Earl Drake.
Although Earl Drake had expected the situation of the tower in his heart, he was still very frustrated when he heard the news from his disciples. He then locked himself in the wizard tower and did not come out again.
Just like Earl Drake did that year, the wilderness wizard also selected one of the residents of Death Valley to be a wizard, and the wizard was also an eagle, the old wizard in front of Leo.
When the old wizard talked about his identity as a sphinx, except for Willis who had been psychologically prepared and Leo who was indifferent to it, he was very surprised, and even Mila could not bear it. Stay curious and want the old wizard to look like an eagle.
However, just as Leo was not interested in his identity, the old wizard was not interested in anyone other than Leo, so he ignored Milla’s request and went on.
Unlike the wild wizards, the old wizards' talents are only passable, and it is already remarkable to be a wizard apprentice in a short time. I am afraid that they cannot be a formal wizard in a short time.
At this time, a new abyss fissure appeared in the Death Valley, and it was necessary to find new gods and artifacts to block this fissure, and there was another thing, which was also a problem in the heart of the wild wizard, that is the eagle body. Reproduction problems.
Therefore, before the old wizard had become a formal wizard, the wilderness wizard handed over the task of guarding the Death Valley to the old wizard, and he himself left the death valley and went to the wilderness of the Mosang mainland.
The reason why the wilderness wizard chose the wilderness as his destination is because the gods of other continents in the Velon world have gradually disappeared. There are no gods and artifacts at all. Only the Mosang continent that remains extremely primitive can have wild gods. Another thing is that the birthplace of the eagles is in the wilderness. Although it is only derived from ancient murals, since there are murals, it is certain that some people in the ancient times have seen real eagles in the wilderness, so he decided to go to the wilderness. , Just kill two birds with one stone.
But just like the high-tower wizards who disappeared in the wilderness before, the wilderness wizard did not enter the depths of the wilderness, and even the tribes did not enter deeper, and never came out again.
The old wizard did not know the situation of the wilderness wizard, but soon after the wilderness wizard left, Count Drake came out of his own wizard tower, and then gave the wizard tower to the old wizard, and told the old wizard if he had difficulty. Look for the royal family of Inge, and he himself enters the depth of the fissure to block the new fissure.
The old wizard followed Earl Drake’s suggestion and got in touch with the Inge royal family. However, at this time, the Inge royal family had declined and could not be compared with the time when Drake became lord, but even so. It is clear that if something happens in Death Valley, the Kingdom of England will bear the brunt, so they will help the old wizard as much as possible within their own abilities.
Of course, these help is not free. The Inge royal family put forward two conditions. One condition is that the old wizard becomes the royal court wizard. The second condition is that if one day does not need the Poseidon artifact, I hope to return the Poseidon artifact to the royal family. .
The old wizard agreed to the request of the royal family and became the royal wizard of the royal family. After confirming that the new rift was indeed banned by Earl Drake, he temporarily left the Valley of Death every year and served in the royal family.
However, the old wizard did not know that Count Drake was not only eroded by the power of the abyss, but also began to become the same as the wizard of the tower, began to approach the abyss, study the abyss, and even began to actively contact the abyss. .
To this end, he also did a lot of experiments, but he was more intelligent, and did not experiment on people in Death Valley, but experimented with other creatures in Death Valley.
Although each experiment will produce some mutant species, but because of the frequent overflow of the power of the abyss, some unknown mutant creatures will appear in Death Valley before, so that even if the old wizard finds something, he will not be able to detect any abnormalities.
This situation did not change until a year ago when the old wizard left the Death Valley again and routinely completed the duties of a court wizard.
The old wizard had returned to Death Valley after serving as a court wizard for almost a year, but the death valley at this moment was completely unrecognizable.
Mutated creatures infected by the power of the abyss are all over Death Valley, and only a small part of the original residents who lived near the wizard tower survived, and all the others died.
From the mouth of the survivors, the old wizard learned that not long after he left the valley of death, some residents began to believe in an unknown deity known as the of deep nothingness, and built a church specifically for this deity, and in these Under the influence of residents, more and more people began to believe in this religion, and only a few people remained sober.
It’s just that there are too few people who stay awake, and they are regarded as aliens by other people in the town. The two sides often have conflicts, and finally they have developed to the level of fighting. This tension makes these sober people have to choose to leave. The small town lives near the wizarding tower, and this choice is the main reason why they can survive.
As for the remaining people, all disappeared after a certain night, and all the creatures in Death Valley also mutated after that night. Only the valley where the wizard tower is located can be preserved.
During this time, the survivors also experienced many attacks of mutant creatures, but within the protection of the wizard tower, most of the mutant creatures will become very weak, which is easily eliminated by these werewolves, blood races and eagles Off.
At the same time, during this time, survivors found that after wearing leather boots and leather garments made of mutant creatures, they would not be attacked even if they entered the forests and meadows of mutant plants.
After listening to the introduction of the survivors, the old wizard didn’t know that it was Count Drake that had happened, so he prepared to go to the church built on the rift to check the situation, but the abyss monster that appeared outside the church However, he blocked his way and prevented him from approaching the church.
In the absence of other means, the old wizard had to want to rescue soldiers from the outside, so that the real graveyard of Earl Drake appeared, and another rumor that the sea artifact was hidden in the real graveyard began to spread in the dark world. In the black market, there are also many rewards for searching for the artifact of the sea god, attracting a large number of people from the dark world to come to Josh County and come to Death Valley.
"What a vicious strategy!" After listening to the old wizard's narrative, Su, who is also a scam, can't help but sneer: "Take us as your pathfinder, you are hiding in the dark, and the best interests appear, I don’t think Leo’s strength is completely beyond your expectations, I am afraid you will not compromise!"
The old wizard shook his head slightly and defended himself: "The policy itself is neither vicious nor clever. As long as there is no greed and no other thoughts about the royal family and kingdom of England, no one will be fooled. They come to death. Gu itself is their own choice. No one forced them, just like you, did they?"
"You..." was ridiculed by the old wizard, Su Yi could not find the right words to refute.
Leo didn't do anything about the two's battles. He only cared about the actual problems. He saw him directly ask: "How many batches of black market treasure hunters have come to the sea artifact before we came?"
"Twenty-three batches." The old wizard reported an accurate number.
After Leo listened, he was silent for a while, and then speculatively asked, "Should you have been in that church?"
"Why do you ask?" The old wizard was a little surprised.
Hearing the old wizard asking this question, Leo also affirmed his speculation in his mind~EbookFREE.me~ said: "Because of your reaction outside the town just now."
The old wizard was silent for a moment and nodded, "Yes, I once entered the church while the monster was attracted by others, but I came out soon."
"What's in the church?" Leo asked.
The old wizard smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "I don't know, because I came out soon, and after I came out, I couldn't remember anything in the church, just like the memory was erased, the only thing was What is there is feeling in the church..." He said, hesitating for a while, and finally decided to say it, saying: "Feeling close and disgusting, but more of fear, as if there is something extremely scary in the church. Similar."
After listening to the old wizard, Leo did not continue to ask, or showed any doubts. He just thought for a moment, and then jumped to another question, saying: "Since the Poseidon artifact is used to ban Abyss fissure, why do you now want to take away the Neptune artifact and return it to the royal family? Won't this make the situation worse?"
