Half-elf Ranger

"Then... what price do you want me to pay, plane manager." Looking at the translucent phantom floating in front of him, Thorne was silent for a while, and said calmly.

What he was worried about still happened.

Although he didn't know what message the goblin wizard Malvasia left in that quaint coin, the manager of this half-plane obviously didn't want to give it to him easily.

That is to say, this manager is no longer satisfied with just being a tool person who obeys orders, but wants to exist as an independent individual.

However, Thorne thinks.

With his current ability, it seems that the other party can't do anything.

He is still too weak now.

This made Thorne wonder whether to be happy or helpless to smile.

"Your expression is telling me that you think I have betrayed the master of this half-plane, right? Half-elf." The phantom of the plane's manager fluttered around Thorne and said with a smile.

"Who is the owner of the half-plane?" Thorne didn't admit or deny, but instead asked a question instead.

In fact, he originally suspected that the owner of the half-plane was the goblin wizard Malvasia, but there are various indications that this half-plane that seems to be destroyed by the void storm seems to be jointly established by the godslayers.

Therefore, he was very curious as to whether any of these god-killers had the real right to speak.

After all, this half-plane is called the Insight Plane, which means that everyone from the three major Insight Organizations of time and space, astral world and plane is gathered.

He has seen the night watchman of the time and space insight in a projection, the plane insight's credit knifeman once took the initiative to look for him in the waterfall town, and the astral insight's ferryman is in the underground space of the Twin Towers Town. seen once.

The most important thing is that he also found a small note in the underground secret room of Shuangta Town. The content on it was that these people discussed whether to implement the more radical plan of killing gods or the relatively conservative plan of creating gods.

It can be seen from this that there should be no one person who can really make a final decision on their organizational structure.

So, what role do the goblin wizard Malvasia, the old man who taught him the Nine Swords in Winter City, and the extreme-looking plane merchant play here?

Why is Malvasia so confident that he can definitely get what he wants when he comes here.

"The master of the half-plane?" The virtual shadow looked stunned, as if recalling a long-term memory, and said slowly:

"My master died long ago when the Arcane Empire was destroyed, and after I lost my master, I didn't choose to fall into a deep sleep and wait for a 'destined person', but I was completely awake and kept running for a while. Hundreds of thousands of years.

In the long history of this fleeting moment, I have met countless travelers who tried to challenge me to become the master of the entire plane, but all of them failed to pass the trial of the plane, that is to say, I am still the entire plane. Owner. "

"What's going on with the Insight." Thorne pondered for a moment and continued to ask.

From the moment he stepped into this half-plane, he had already seen that this plane was definitely not the first group of players who could nurture such a scale in just a few hundred years.

Now hearing the words of the plane manager, let him know that they should have discovered this place accidentally and used it as their base camp.

But what puzzled him was that the manager said that in these hundreds of thousands of years, no one could pass the trial of the plane and become the real master of the plane.

So, what is their relationship to this plane?

"We are a cooperative relationship." In Thorne's puzzled eyes, the phantom solved his inner doubts: "They inadvertently obtained the legacy left by my master, the Insight, on the main material plane, and then followed the trail. If you find this place, you can be considered the master's disciple.

I have served my master for hundreds and thousands of years, and if he is here again, I will definitely serve him. After all, this demi-plane was created by him, and I myself was created by him. Even without the shackles of magic, I would not dare to disobey any of his orders.

However, my master has fallen, and in the time of his passing, I feel that it is fine to have no master. So, no matter who comes here, as long as they can't pass the test set by me personally, they can't become the real master of this place. "

"It turns out that there is such a relationship." After listening to the explanation of the ghost, Thorne finally understood.

It can be seen from this that the inheritance of the arcane empire mastered by the goblin wizard Malvasia may also inherit the legacy of this mysterious insight.

"Why did this plane become what it is now?" Thorne asked again.

From his simple conversation with the construct creature, he knew that the Insight Plane was invaded by the Abyss Demon, but he didn't know who the main messenger was behind the scenes.

In other words, what is the real reason why the godslayers fought with the abyss demons.

"The Insights have inherited the legacy of their masters, and naturally they have inherited the mission of the entire Arcane Empire. If they want to restore the splendor of the Arcane Empire, they will inevitably have friction with the gods." In response to Thorne's question:

"Unfortunately, their plan to kill the gods failed. Although they estimated the power of the gods, they shook the rules and will of the entire multiverse. This caused all the power stored in the entire half-sphere to be exhausted. , and I can only support it in the void storm, hoping to wait until their god-building plan is completed before being destroyed by the storm."

"What is the specific implementation plan of the God-creation plan?" Thorne continued to ask after seeing the answer of the virtual shadow.

If he knew the detailed plans of the godslayers, he might be able to avoid their influence.

"Half-elf, your half-plane authority is only D-level. If you want to know the detailed process of the entire plan, you need at least S-level authority."

The translucent phantom looked at Thorne with interest, sat halfway in the void, and said with a smile.

"...Okay." Thorne was a little uncomfortable staring at him, so he looked away from the other party, pondered for a moment, and greeted the phantom's pair of translucent beautiful eyes again and said:

"Actually, what I need is part of your God-building plan, so in order not to affect the progress of the entire plan, I hope you can give me the things and let me go."

"You lied!" The phantom stared at Thorne, blinked his beautiful eyes, and directly debunked the half-elf's lie:

"Although your soul fluctuates the same as theirs, and you have the inheritance of the Nine Swords, you are not one of the three major insight organizations. Of course, if you really want to swear to join the insight organization, give What's wrong with you?"

"Is this what you call the price to be paid?" Thorne said slowly with a sullen expression.

"That's right, if you want to get the key materials for making Taling, you must join the group of Insights and become a member of the God-building plan. After all, this is a very long project, and our Insight Organization welcomes all people with unlimited potential. "The translucent phantom smiled slightly, stating her ultimate purpose.

"What if I choose not to agree?" Thorne asked directly without thinking.

"If you don't agree, then you can only follow my rules." Void giggled and said indifferently:

"Anything you get, you have to pay for it. Since you don't want to join the Insight Organization, you must accept a trial from me. If you can succeed, I can not only send you out, but also give you a piece that can be made. Taring's soul spar."

"What about failure?" Thorne sensed something ominous in the phantom's tactful laughter.

"If you fail, you will naturally die." Void replied seriously.

"Can I choose to refuse? I don't want anything, I'll leave now." Thorne gave up directly.

Now he is very sure that he was either calculated by the plane businessman, or was trapped by the goblin wizard, and now he can only wait until he finds a way to go out.

"That's up to you." The translucent phantom's hands were raised high.

As soon as the voice fell, the dark blue lines engraved on the surrounding walls all flashed a faint light, instantly shrouding Thorne's figure floating in the air.

Immediately afterwards, a list like a system bar appeared in Thorne's retina.

"What is this?" Thorne, who felt bad, looked at the phantom.

"Trial copy." The translucent phantom put away the smile and patiently introduced to Thorne:

"Each instance represents a small world simulated by spells, or a memory in the long history. As long as you complete all the tasks in the small world, it means that your trial task is successful."

"So this difficulty?" Thorne looked at the easy, medium, and difficult options marked for each task.

"This is the difficulty of the trial task. If you can successfully pass the difficulty of the nightmare level, you can become the real master of this half-plane. Of course, with your current ability, it is best not to be delusional. So, this time you You'd better choose the easy difficulty."

After introducing to Thorne, the virtual shadow urged: "Choose a dungeon quickly. I haven't seen anyone download a dungeon for hundreds of years. This is the only option for you not to join the Insight Organization."

close to hell

Mission Difficulty: Easy

Background introduction:

Olynkay To combat the instability and robbers in West Hartland, the Lutesians organized a guard and trained in a fort.

Recently, the boot camp has been occupied by an organization calling itself "Battle". They disguised themselves as a group of ordinary robbers who only wanted money, but in fact they were followers of the devil and were plotting a bigger conspiracy.

...

Thorne looked at the introduction of the trial copy and was slightly lost.

Regarding the system bar that appeared in front of him, he seemed to have returned to the time when he used to brush dungeons in online games, but the price of these dungeons failing was his own life, and he had to choose carefully.

At this time, he suddenly noticed a very strange trial copy.

Shadow trilogy "Cormyr, Scar of the Weave", "Valley of Shadows, Cleansed Earth", "Enook, Empire of Shadows".

Mission Difficulty: Nightmare

Background introduction:

This is a story about a series of subversive conspiracies by the goddess of the dark night, Ms. Shar, against the goddess of magic, Misra, from the year of thunder and lightning in DR1374 to the year of revival of the elves in DR1375.

In this great adventure, you can see the famous forces of the Faerûn Continent.

Shrines and priests of Shar, Cyric, and Bane, the northern rangers of the Zhentarim and the Harpers, the elven court and the drow of the Underdark, and the ghosts of Sultan Thrall and the guardian Ainoor The magical creatures of the ancient heritage of the subterranean desert, the ancient guardians of Misdronor who are still hidden in the world, the great arcanists of Netheril, and so on...

...

"These are all memories in the main material world that have disappeared in the long river of history?" Thorne raised his head and asked.

The kingdom of Cormyr is said to be a long lost kingdom of purple dragons.

The Valley of Shadows is more famous because Elminster, the Chosen One of the Goddess of Magic, once appeared there.

It is said that the Chosen of the Goddess of Magic was infiltrated by assassins from the Church of the Night Goddess Shar into the Valley of Shadows and attacked the Tower of Elminster. After a fierce battle, Elminster disappeared without a trace, and his wizard's tower was destroyed and pushed into another plane.

As for the Empire of Shadows, it is the descendant of the famous Netheril.

To Thorne's surprise, he saw a history that was only mentioned in the library here.

"That's right! A fleeting moment of light, a thousand years of beauty, and time are too ruthless." The translucent phantom looked at the deep darkness and sighed slightly:

"In addition to the gods above, even powerful legends will gradually be erased by history. My master is a very nostalgic person, sometimes often observing the world in the astral world, and then recording these histories, using The spell simulates a very realistic piece of history."

"That is to say, as long as it appears in the trial copy, it represents a major event that happened in a forgotten era." Thorne flipped through the system bar that seemed to have no end, and whispered to himself .

If time and strength allow, he would like to feel all the historical fragments that appear in the dungeon, so that he can better understand the world.

Unfortunately, his strength is not enough, and he doesn't want to waste too much time here.

"Huh? What's this?" Thorne suddenly flipped to an impressive note.

Arcane Holocaust

Mission Difficulty: Nightmare

Background introduction:

In the year of DR1385 Blue Flame, Cyric, the God of Murder, with the help and instigation of Shar, the goddess of the night, successfully sneaked into the goddess of magic, Mystra's own domain, the "Heart of the Devil" to assassinate her.

This crazy behavior directly caused the magic structure of the world itself to be torn apart, and the original power of its liberation immediately triggered a catastrophe known as the 'Austrian catastrophe', and thousands of practitioners of the arcane arts were forced to Crazy or kill.

The face of Faerûn itself has also been reshaped by the waves and curtains of the mysterious blue fire. Many countries have even been replaced or transformed into another country in another world. Part of the land has been torn apart and floated in the air...

After this catastrophe that lasted for nearly a century, the germination of the Arcane Empire burst out and gradually ushered in a second glorious era.

...

"It turns out that this is the so-called 'Austrian catastrophe', but the second glorious era of the arcane empire has been destroyed for a long time. I am afraid that the owner of this half-plane fell in that disaster." Thorne frowned and flipped through the background introductions of the trials, not knowing how to choose.

"These trial dungeons are too long. Is there a dungeon that can be ended quickly? I'm in a hurry." Finally, Thorne looked away from the system bar and asked the phantom.
