Heroes of Might and Magic: Knight Chapter 275: The mad emperor’s legacy
Richard's question was 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. He hides 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 the function of the Elf King Ring. critical information.
Originally, everyone was scheming and hiding secrets, and no one could tell anyone. But in such a serious crisis this time, Aragorn still hid his secrets and almost fought GG together. Anyway, Richard was right this time. Occupied, I have to express my complaints no matter what, and at the same time, I can understand this ring that is comparable to a magic weapon.
"This ring, I want to know everything about it."
Richard showed the ring in his hand to Aragorn. Sensing the atmosphere, Archangel Mills, who had some troops, 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 kept staring at Aragorn's eyes, waiting for an explanation. Aragorn was silent for a while and then sighed, and spoke as if accepting his fate. Road:
"The full name of this ring is the Ring of the Rebellious Elf King, or it may be called the God-Killing Ring."
"Kill God?"
Richard knew the name of the rebellious Ring of the Elf King. The system gave the 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. In addition, Kallis also bears half of the responsibility."
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 has the entire empire to provide him with training resources. He soon reached an unprecedented level in magic cultivation. Kallis, who has reached the limit in magic practice, began to try to get involved in the realm of God - 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 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, and almost every named **** had a temple to worship it.”
"Snatch the power of rules from the gods?"
"To be precise, it should be a release, not a robbery, just to release the authority held by the gods. Kallis did not obtain those authorities."
"Can gods who control the rules use the rules at will?"
"Five hundred years ago, before I was severely injured by the Lord of the Rising Sun, 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 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 it. In the so-called realm of gods, Kallis had only two choices at this time, 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. ”
"Huh?"
"The traditional magic categories are all 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 end. It will fall on the gods and 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 from the Elf Empire have joined. research,
The gods in the Supreme City did not pay attention to Kallis' actions at the beginning. It was not until a key breakthrough 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 elves participating in the research The magisters ignored the warnings of the gods and instead accelerated their research progress, finally angering the gods.
The gods imposed divine punishment and vowed to make Kalis bow his head. The magisters that the Elf Empire was proud of were completely unable to fight against the gods. The gods manipulated the rules and the elements that the elf magisters were once proud of. It is difficult to exert all the power. ”
"What about the final result?"
Li Cha asked the question 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 is not interested in this kind of thing. In ancient times, the elven empire and the gods were also very interested, so they naturally urged Aragorn to continue talking.
"Do you think the elf failed?"
"Yeah."
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, it was the elves who won. The mad emperor Kalis 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 will remove all the abilities of the holder. The absorbed power is concentrated in the ring and transformed into an impact on the soul. The power depends on the user's own strength.
If you use it like the Mad Emperor Kallis, you don’t even need to use all your strength. A **** with medium divine power will be directly killed in one blow. If you activate it instead..."
Aragorn paused here before continuing:
"To be honest, I am 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 was a white wolf with nothing. He used the God-killing Ring at the last minute before 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 we talk about the controller, it can avoid being wiped out, and it can also nourish itself through the energy it transforms. This should be what Kallis was doing at that time. It was a bit of a backup for myself, but I don’t know why it was 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 spell to use for functions such as confinement and obliteration. He only taught it after he was forced into 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.
