Arcane Lord

"Since the teacher also feels that the [Ascension Order] will have endless consequences, why do you still support it now?"

Xia Duo believed that the Seven Towers could not fail to see the risks of doing so, and perhaps it was just the luck in their hearts that supported them to continue. If Yin Olem insisted on objecting, the Seven Towers might reconsider the feasibility of this matter.

In this regard, Yin Orem's answer was a sigh, "The Seven Towers don't know it, but when the way to ascend to the gods is in front of them and has been verified, the entire Netheril has no way out."

"..."

Xia Duo was silent. In fact, he also knew that this was just like bad money driving out good money. Once it was determined that ascension to the gods was feasible, a competition among the great arcanists would inevitably begin.

This is not just a competition between the Seven Towers and outside the Seven Towers. The Seven Towers are not monolithic, and they cannot completely unify their opinions. Instead of fighting in the chaos, it is better for the Seven Towers to organize a recognized promotion from the beginning. Divine order.

This is actually just the difference between slow death and explosive death. In fact, even if there is an order for ascension to the gods, the path to ascension to the gods is limited, and limited people may not be willing to follow such an order. Even if they comply on the surface, they will continue to make small moves in private.

If Master Yerevan succeeds in ascension to God this time, and the path to ascension to God is further verified, it will surely make the competition for ascension to God quickly become more intense.

Looking at Yin Orum's deep eyes, for some reason, Sha Duo suddenly had an ominous premonition. It was not what would happen to Yin Olem himself, but Master Yerevan this time -

Maybe some people are unwilling to let him succeed.

Of course, in contrast, there will also be a group of people who are looking forward to Master Yerevan once again seeing the feasibility of the path to godhood.

Xia Duo vaguely smelled the coming of the beacon fire. No wonder Qita was unwilling to get involved in Sluvende's affairs at this time. His own family was about to explode, so how could he be in the mood to care about others!

But what is the real intention of the Seven Towers?

And Yin Orem?

Sha Duo couldn't help but fell into deep thought. For the Seven Towers, this was actually a dilemma. Master Yerevan's successful ascension to God might be able to solve the hidden dangers of abnormal climate.

But it will also bring greater hidden dangers to the order of Netheril. Once the competition for ascension to the gods begins, the situation may not be under the control of the Seven Towers.

But if Master Yerevan fails to ascend to the gods, then the abnormal climate for which no reason can be found so far may bring down Netheril.

This is not to say that having arcane gardens will solve the problem, but it is a question of why spellcasters with arcane gardens, who are only a minority of the population, have to raise a bunch of ordinary people.

In the short term, there may be traditions and responsibilities that can be counted on, but as time goes by, any unilateral effort will only bring fatigue, at least for the Nese mages of the current era, this is what they think.

Xia Duo put himself into the perspective of the Seven Towers, and felt that it was really difficult to make a decision, whether to support Master Yerevan or not.

However, judging from the current situation, the Seven Towers should still have the majority of support. The order of ascending to the gods may not be a bad thing for the top casters. Maybe many people are looking forward to that day!

Then, the only ones who really oppose it are Yin Orum and Kang Jie Nien, who support the opening and popularization of magic. Of course, this also includes some old people who have lived in the Seven Towers until now.

But conservative forces can gain the upper hand today, and the power of the elderly may not be as great as Sha Duo imagined!

As for Shado himself, he is of course firmly opposed to the order of god ascension. This kind of order does not need to be developed to the extreme to form a god system. Just a few more gods will inevitably lead to the overall environment of Netheril becoming closer to Conservative, even completely solidified.

He has long been familiar with the principle of divine ascension. It is based on a certain order in reality, and sublimates the power of order through various means, turning it into some kind of extraordinary power, which is called "divine power".

The root of divine power lies in a certain order in reality. If you don't want the divine power to be unstable, the best way is of course to confine your thoughts and everything.

This is where the doctrine comes from.

Of course, if it can be extended or expanded from a certain order to another order, for example, from agriculture to seasons, to time sequence, or from agriculture to land, to earth element.

That is the growth of divine power, and it is also the growth path of this God of Order. In sync with it, the doctrine may also change accordingly.

But as long as you think about it with your fingernails, you will know that doing so must violate the current or potential interests of another god.

This is why Xia Duo believes that the ultimate development of the divine order is the real reason for the divine system.

When the various forces, or the various gods, compromise with each other and reach an agreement, and completely carve up all orders—including potential orders that may appear in the future—that is the birth of the god system.

Then you can imagine what it is like for ordinary people living under this god system. It can almost be said that everything is completely arranged from birth to death.

There cannot be any changes, otherwise the foundation of divine power may be shaken.

Of course, even if there are variables, it may be that the gods are conducting experiments on the evolution of divine power. No matter what the final result is, they are still under the control of the gods.

It will no longer be possible for ordinary people to have a truly independent will.

By then, let alone a magical civilization that advocates development and creation, even the current situation in Netheril may not be able to be maintained.

After all, non-spellcasters are easier to control than spellcasters, and there is no need to cultivate their own competitors or rebels in disguise.

That kind of darkness may be similar to the Middle Ages on earth, and even more cruel. After all, there are only people on earth who act in the name of the true god, but here, the true god can do it himself.

Sha Duo felt that he needed to make plans in advance. Of course, this did not mean that he wanted to destroy Master Yerevan's ascension ceremony.

He has a very good personal impression of Master Yerevan and admires his legendary deeds. Moreover, this kind of thing is not something that can be prevented by destroying it once or twice.

Without Yerevan, and possibly Yerege and Yerelen, I would have no time to search for and destroy them one by one. If I want to truly avoid the fate of future civilization’s collapse, the best way is of course to solve them at the source.

As long as the development limit of magic is pushed to the realm of gods, not to mention completely dispelling the idea of ​​ascension to gods among the arcane masters of Netheril, at least a camp can be created that can compete with them.

Only the pure arcane method can change the future. As for destroying this and future ascension ceremonies, it will only treat the symptoms but not the root cause.

Not to mention that it is still only the initial stage of the Ascension Order. Even in the future, Xia Duo himself will have a very high say. There is no need to alert potential opponents now.

He could completely study the pure arcane path while blending into the Ascension Order, wearing their clothes and disrupting their order.

The so-called "fighting against black flags with a black flag" can certainly be done by Xia Duo.
