The Truth of Magic - Chapter 248
248 chapter 247/can not be resurrected
when zhao xu returned to the vicinity of fallen star lake, antonya’s words were still echoing in his mind.
He was completely stunned by the divine fragment.
Arthur’s most long-standing epic in recent years, ” the path to godhood, ” told the story of a rogue who wasn’t even a legend. At the end of the catastrophe era after the death of the death god, he successfully picked up a piece of the death God’s divinity and successfully ascended to the throne to become the ” God of Slaughter.
In the early stages of ” the path to godhood, ” the God of Slaughter had a tragic life. He was framed by his peers because he was originally a crew member.
in order to cover up his family’s mistake, the trusted prosecutor also hid the truth, which led to him being locked up in prison for treason.
his fiancée left him and married his enemy. his father died of illness and poverty.
then, the god of slaughter finally became a rogue under the guidance of priest nairo, the god of death, who was also imprisoned in the prison.
In the end, he disguised himself as the dead body of the sick priest and escaped after being thrown into the sea.
after that, the rogue relied on the guidance of the death priest and finally found the fragment of the death god’s divine persona, becoming the god of slaughter.
His revenge story ended with the destruction of Arthur’s dynasty that had been passed down for thousands of years.
the latter half of the book recorded that the god of slaughter was unable to control his massive divine power due to his lack of accumulation. in the end, he was annihilated by the other divine powers.
Moreover, because of the first half of the content, everyone was in the shoes of the Rogue protagonist and had a good impression of him.
As such, the subsequent plot of the gods ‘encirclement and killing could also be avoided, and they were all deleted from official publications by the church.
Many new readers thought that it was just a story made up when they realized that there was no God of Slaughter at the moment.
what antonya had told zhao xu was that there was a path to becoming a god just like the one that the god of slaughter had given him.
it was a path that had been verified by predecessors.
For example, if the goddess of magic’s divine personality was placed in front of him, Zhao Xu’s brain wouldn’t be able to handle it without being a legendary wizard, and he would definitely die.
Zhao Xu understood this very well when he read the book ” God and demigod ” in the legendary library.
At first, Zhao Xu had wanted to evolve the scythe in his hand as soon as possible so that he could quickly find the portal.
But now, it seemed that everything needed to change.
he needed to use these five days to improve his strength from all angles.
In fact, anything that involved the level of gods would not be simple.
Zhao Xu was in a state of synchronization with ” Artoria.
That was why when he had first met Antonya, he hadn’t told her about the sacred gear of eternity and the seven great prophecies in detail.
thanks to the hint from the divination spell, zhao xu also started to try out the level 5 divine power.
now that he was a level 30 spellcaster, he could ask 30 questions.
however, after zhao xu finished casting the spell, he realized that the light from the spell didn’t open up a channel of communication to kingdom of heaven.
after the spiritual light circled around him a few times, it pointed directly at him and entered the space between his eyebrows.
“eh? You’re looking for me?” The voice of Artoria, who had fallen into a deep sleep, came.
Zhao Xu had been using Artoria’s level 20 priest abilities for the past two days, and this was the first time he experienced the power of a Max-level account.
He was not used to hearing the other party’s voice.
“I just used theurgy, and the target of the question was you?” zhao xu asked in surprise.
“Yes, this spell can connect to the gods or their agents. You can’t possibly think that you can let the goddess answer it personally, right? naturally, it was distributed to me, who was fused with you.”
“then i’m going to be seeking something far away from what’s near.” zhao xu said angrily.
How could this ‘godly technique’ be so cunning?
go ahead and ask. Although I’m not omniscient, I should be able to answer your questions. altoria replied.
When he heard this, Zhao Xu immediately ran through everything that had happened in the battle of fallen star Lake and asked Artoria every single question.
At the same time, he also asked about some inside information about the “scavenger beast pit.”
since that thing involved the godhead of the death god, it was definitely not something that could be hidden.
this made him a little curious as to why the gods did not intervene in the interdimensional space to take the divine fragment.
And an Angel of such strength like Altoria existed as a top commander in the battlefield of heaven.
although the battlefields were different, she had once been a mortal and knew the true essence of war. she immediately broke down the main points of a normal battle and explained them to zhao xu.
zhao xu slowly came to a different realization.
He also began to feel the difference between an amateur and an expert.
in other online games, players had indeed organized guild wars involving thousands of players.
However, to them, it was just a simulation.
it was not like this moment, where they were fighting against an organization that had accumulated resources for decades. behind the other party was the world of arthur, which had a history of hundreds of millions of years.
many of the operations were no longer as simple as the chess pieces going over and surrounding the place.
besides, arthur’s players didn’t have the way to communicate in time like other online games. they could only imbue the players with a set of simple flag signals.
however, what they were facing was the mining association’s private army, which had been built up from a young age.
in his previous life, the players had only managed to turn the tables when the group of personal guards had been completely exhausted and the mercenaries, who did not have a good rapport with each other, intervened.
After asking twenty questions about the battle of fallen star Lake, Zhao Xu realized that the duration of the spell had long since passed.
“hey, should i cast the spell again?” zhao xu asked.
“there’s no need. the power of magic is just to provide a channel of communication. i’m in your heart, so you don’t have to do this.” Altoria answered simply.
zhao xu also nodded. according to the requirements of the spell, a simple “yes or no” would be enough.
otherwise, not even a level nine expert would be able to suppress the power of this godly technique.
It was just that he was using his personal connections, so he got more answers.
that was why artoria would go into a long-winded speech because of his question.
then why didn’t the gods intervene in the interdimensional space? ” zhao xu finally asked the question that he really wanted to ask today.
At that time, Antonya was already a little sleepy and was planning to go to the bedroom next door to change her clothes and go to sleep, so he didn’t want to continue asking.
“Well, we have to return to another problem first.” Altoria said, ” do you know the former ‘God of Slaughter’? ”
zhao xu nodded his head when he heard this. he had even read the story of his life before.
“then do you know why at least half of the gods died during the great catastrophe? but among them, the one who inherited the throne the smoothest and without any waves is that slaughter god?”
during this period of time, zhao xu had actually been studying a lot about the interdimensional space.
in his heart, he more or less had his own opinion on all the problems that had puzzled him in his previous life.
He was no longer passively receiving the indoctrination of ideas.
because this is determined by the characteristics of the god of death’s divine persona. Zhao Xu said.
” after the other gods have fallen, their divine personas will have these distinct remnant characteristics. even the gods will have to spend a long time to digest them. ”
only the Grim Reaper. Due to the uniqueness of death, some of the characteristics left behind by the Grim Reaper will be gone.
Zhao Xu finally said this guess word by word.
yes, master, your current understanding of this aspect has indeed exceeded my expectations. You always have your own accurate judgment of divinity. altoria suddenly praised zhao xu.
“Then what I’m going to tell you next, are you ready?” Artoria suddenly said seriously.
At this moment, Zhao Xu looked around him. It was very quiet on the hills in the middle of the night, and only the chirping of insects could be heard.
Indeed, no one came close.
But it would be a waste if Zhao Xu didn’t use his spells.
He used miracle to simulate the seventh-circle arcane spell, wizard mansion.
Suddenly, a faintly glowing door appeared in front of him. It was about the size of his single bed in his dormitory.
there was nothing behind the door, and it was still the same forest on the hill.
Zhao Xu walked straight into the entrance to the other dimension.
After that, the door that was still glowing dimmed and closed, then became completely invisible.
then, zhao xu saw an extremely luxurious living room in front of him. the furniture was all neatly stacked up, and the living room was connected to dozens of spacious rooms.
in reality, zhao xu could still continue to modify the layout. with his level 30 spellcaster level, he could create this space that was about 2500 cubic meters.
But Zhao Xu wasn’t interested in looking at the huge dining table that could feed 360 people, or the 60 servants who were dressed so neatly that they were almost transparent.
In fact, he just wanted to build a simple and hidden space.
However, it was also because of the emergence of these “Residential” spells that the life of mages was much more convenient, and they did not need to eat and sleep in the open.
“it’s done.” Zhao Xu said to Altoria, who was in sync.
“Okay, then listen carefully.” Artoria’s tone was very serious, but it was not like she was deliberately keeping him in suspense.
” the god of death is the only god that can not be resurrected. ”
