Broad World
Chapter 927: Temptation from the Goddess of Magic
"It's really unlucky. Before the city is built, we have to deal with the attacks of those evil compatriots."
Following this complaint, the door of the meeting room was pushed open, and the first person to come out of it was none other than Henry's once-appointed chief executive—Antleb.
This handsome dark elf guy saw Su Li at a glance, and hurriedly laughed and opened his arms for a warm hug: "Haha! Dear old man, why did you come in person? Do you need some special products from the Underdark Region? You're welcome. Said, as long as there are in the warehouse, I will never refuse."
"Thank you, but I'm not here this time to ask for supplies. Do you see who is standing next to me?" Su Li took two steps back as he spoke, making a gesture of a servant .
It has to be said that his sycophant was very technical, without any nasty compliments, and he brought out the hooded Henry standing next to him with just one movement.
moment!
All the people pouring out of the conference room cast their gazes over.
Because they all knew that Su Li was the governor of the surface city of Waylon, and there were not many people who could make him show such a respectful attitude, so they all began to guess in their hearts who this person was.
Suddenly, a dark elf woman with long silver-white hair and dark skin stepped out from behind the crowd. She was wearing a loose velvet gown tied in the middle with a belt inlaid with a large amount of gold and precious stones, revealing a sexy and slender waistline, two sets of arms were bare, with a pair of wristbands on her hands, she exudes Intense divine power.
She first looked up and down for a few seconds, and then she touched her chest with one hand and bowed slightly: "It's a great honor to meet you here, Your Majesty Henry Angomey. Both goddesses have mentioned you many times, I used to think it was a bit disapproving, but after seeing it today, I realized that their evaluation of you was not exaggerated at all."
"Oh. Can you tell me how the two goddesses commented on me? Kwai Lu? Ms. Villadron!" Henry pulled down his hood, revealing his face. He didn't expect at all that he would meet the most mysterious of the Seven Northern Sisters here, and also the chosen one of Mystra, the goddess of magic, and Eilistraee, the dark girl.
That's right, the sexy and charming dark elf woman in front of me is also the chosen one of the two gods. Like the chosen ones of Elminster, Kelben, Erastri, and Lyra, she has the power of the silver fire. Also a powerful priest.
Unexpectedly, Eilistraee would be so willing to spend all her money. He was actually willing to send this most capable general over here.
Kui Lu was a little surprised that Henry could recognize her, and touched her long hair with a chuckle: "Hehe, of course it's no problem. The mother of magic's evaluation of you is that you are a crazy genius. She is very Appreciate your fanaticism in research, and at the same time, I am a little afraid that you will become like Karthus in the future. As for the dancing lady, she thinks that you can make some dark elves escape from evil and be accepted by the surface world again. "
"It sounds good, but the worries of the goddess of magic are obviously a bit unnecessary. My future will not be Karthus, Sammaster, or Iolum. I am just me, unique in the entire multiverse I have never aspired to be a god. I have no interest in joining the eternal struggle. My goal is to explore, research, and transcend. Maybe you can't understand my thoughts, but please remember one thing, that is me Always walk on the path of neutrality."
After Henry finished speaking, he fully opened his lowered eyelids, revealing his eyes like a starry sky. Everyone who saw it couldn't help gasping, even Kwai Lu was no exception.
The leader of the subterranean dwarves, Gordande Heishi, jumped up in surprise and shouted in a trembling voice: "The stone is above! You...your eyes!! My God! How did it become like this?!"
"Look! Those light spots like stars can still move!" Another high-ranking gnome, Thonde Dagford, also yelled.
Just when everyone was shocked by those strange eyes. Kui Lu was the first to react, and hurriedly took two steps forward to observe carefully, then lowered her voice and asked, "Have you connected your soul with primitive magic?"
Henry smiled and nodded: "Yes, I have completely integrated all the power and magic energy I have mastered, and these two eyes are the embodiment of some kind of power. Please tell the goddess of magic that I have found my own path. So please don't worry about her."
As a person who has a deep understanding of the history of the Faerun continent, he is very clear where the worries of the goddess of magic come from.
In fact. In the world of Toril, all powerful spellcasters always like to target the goddess of magic, trying to seize her magic priesthood, even some gods, such as the lost lady Shar, or the prince of lies who has recently regained his sanity. Cyric, all plotting to kill and absorb the power of the goddess of magic.
so far. The goddess of magic has actually been killed twice, the first time was Karthus's unprecedented twelfth-level magic. She chose to commit suicide in order to save the magic net. The second time was in the year of turmoil, when she attempted to expose the conspiracy of the Death Gods, but was killed by the dutiful Heim.
If the original Mystra was resurrected after the first death, then the second resurrection was completely replaced by the mortal Midnight, who was no longer the original god born from the struggle between light and darkness.
Since Midnight was once a mortal, she knew more about the thirst and greed of mortal spellcasters for magical knowledge, and was very afraid that she would one day step into the same footsteps.
Since Henry had the power to kill gods, the third goddess of magic seemed a little nervous, because Henry's attitude towards magic was fundamentally different from the teachings she advocated, and it could even be said to be diametrically opposed.
While the two have a lot in common when it comes to learning and creating new magic, the rest is in great conflict.
Perhaps due to the influence of Elminster, Midnight is relatively conservative in the use of magic. She believes that magic is not just a weapon and technology. The stronger a spellcaster is, the less he should use magic. .
And what about Henry?
He thinks magic is a weapon!
A very powerful weapon!
A weapon capable of destructive power!
At the same time, he also believes that magic is also a kind of technology, which can not only greatly improve the level of productivity. And it can also be used to study the truth that exists throughout the multiverse.
The most important thing is that Henry never thought that the stronger the caster's power, the more he had to reduce the number of spellcastings. In his eyes, the use of magic depends on the situation. At certain times, not only must it be used, but it must also be used in a special way. After all, most of the time, violence is the only way to solve the problem.
Violence can't solve any problems, it's just some cowardly literati's self-deception. Their fragile bodies cannot use violence. So I keep spreading this statement, making others cowardly.
Whether it is in the history of the earth or in the history of Faerun, not only can violence solve problems, but it can also solve almost all problems. If it cannot be solved, there is only one reason, that is, you are not violent enough.
Needless to say, the region is too far away. In modern history alone, a certain superpower relies on violence. Almost wiped out all the Indians in North America, laying a solid foundation for future prosperity.
Likewise, on the continent of Faerun. Whether it was the creator race in ancient times, or the giant dragons and giants who later dominated the continent, or the empires established by the ancient elves, and Netheril and Imaskar behind them, which one did not rely on violent means to conquer? Which one has not declined under more powerful means of violence.
Although Henry seldom uses violence, and more uses some means to make the enemy disintegrate from within, it does not mean that he does not understand the importance of violence. So he has been tirelessly developing his own power, until the violence in his hands is enough to destroy everything, then he will really show his fangs.
Obviously, Midnight, the current goddess of magic, is very afraid of this point, so she wants to use the mouth of Kwai Lu Villadron to test it out.
Henry, who had been involved in conspiracies and tricks for many years, immediately understood the meaning, so he took the initiative to reveal his ambitions, and even revealed some of his hole cards.
He doesn't seem to be an enemy of the goddess of magic at all. Because there are too many gods standing behind the opponent, Azuth, the god of mages, Savras, the god of prophecy, Omar, the god of knowledge, Corellon, the god of elves, etc., there are several of them with powerful divine power alone, and then Coupled with the absolute control of the magic net, as long as the IQ is normal, it will never provoke such a powerful and terrifying enemy.
besides. There is another reason, that is, he also has a little disdain for the magic priesthood mastered by Midnight.
After dissecting the body of the holy man of Amanata. Henry has a hunch that magical energy is actually a substance from a higher latitude, so it is impossible to truly control it in order to truly become a goddess of magic beyond time and space. All she can control is the magic net woven by the first generation of magic goddesses, and the original magic energy will not be affected by the goddess no matter when and where.
Since the priesthood of magic cannot control the ubiquitous raw magical energy, this priesthood is completely useless to him who pursues the truth of the entire multi-universe, and even has no research value.
That being the case, it's better to express your thoughts early and let Midnight concentrate on continuing to fight Shar, Cyric, and Bane, who will soon be resurrected.
Kuilu closed her eyes and communicated with the goddess for a few minutes, and then quickly bowed with a smile on her face: "The mother of magic said that she has understood what you mean, and at the same time, I hope you will not cause too much damage to the whole world." , especially those alchemy creations with terrifying explosive power, it is best not to use them as much as possible.”
"Of course, I'm taking the path of neutrality, which is also the path of balance. Keeping the whole world in balance is what I'm after. As for the alchemy items mentioned by the goddess, I promise that if it is not a last resort, I will never use it lightly." Henry gave an affirmative answer almost without hesitation.
In his view, magic should be neutral, without a trace of good and evil tendencies, and part of the so-called chaos and order. Like the goddess of magic, it closes the high-level magic net and prohibits the use of large-scale destructive spells. It is completely putting the cart before the horse. .
However, considering that the power of the goddess of magic can still be used, that's why Henry is so talkative. After all, the two sides have conflicts of ideas at most, and there is no irreconcilable contradiction. (to be continued ~^~)
