The Lord of Ashes

If Obiye and Ronaldo are embarking on the path of passive physical evolution.

Then the mage Flynn is embarking on an active path that combines wisdom and elemental power.

Thain did not accept Flynn as his disciple. This little guy is not even qualified to be Thain's assistant apprentice now.

Flynn's first-level life level and the dozen or so magics he mastered were nothing in Thane's eyes.

Magicians in the real wizarding world do not stick to fixed moves or spell models.

Taking Thain's current spell as an example, it is just a basic fireball spell. He can rely on his wisdom and knowledge to easily change his spell model, allowing the fire element magic, which was originally only in the form of a fireball, to manifest hundreds of manifestations.

The appearance of the firebird displayed by the mass explosion technique is just one of them.

If ‏​​‎​‏‎‏‏‎‎​‏‏‎‎ is counted as a kind of magic, it is equivalent to Thain having evolved and mastered hundreds of kinds of magic.

This is also the biggest difference between magicians in the wizarding world and magicians in Faerûn.

The former is full of infinite plasticity and promotes its own growth through knowledge.

The latter, however, follows the traditional magic model. They only know what it is but don't know why it is so. They mechanically grasp the models inherent in the magic network and remain unchanged for thousands of years.

Thane did not enhance Flynn's physical or mental strength from the beginning like he did with Obiye and Ronaldo.

The change in knowledge and values ​​was the first transformation that Thain made to Flynn.

This transformation seems to have little effect in the short term.

But if we take a longer view... Flynn is actually the little guy that Thain is looking forward to the most.

…

The life on the second floor of Purgatory is much more comfortable for the family members of the God-Slaying Society than it is in the wild snow-capped mountains in the far north.

The attitude of these purgatory demons towards them is simply unbelievable that they are really "demons".

Sufficient living supplies and relatively abundant cultivation resources make these members of the God-Slaying Society seem to be in heaven.

At the same time, they do not need to worry about the cleanup teams sent by major temple churches, including those purgatory demons, who rarely cause trouble for them.

Now most of the elite demon legions in the purgatory camp have gathered on the periphery of the first level of purgatory.

Unless the gods of the major pantheons in Faerun can break through the blockade on the first level of Purgatory, they will never threaten the second level of Purgatory.

All the families of members of the God-Slaying Society know who brought all this to them. Although, this is a cooperation based on interests.

[Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines and over 100 sounds. It is also a source-changing artifact that supports offline reading. Source-changing App]

But without Thain's personal intervention, it would have been impossible for those demons to provide certain training resources to the families of these members of the God-Slaying Society.

"I need some energy crystals and other auxiliary training resources to help me judge and study the growth progress of those members of the God-Slaying Society." Thain said to the purgatory demons.

Anyway, this guy has reaped countless benefits from the depths of purgatory. For the demons in purgatory, he is no less generous than to the members of the God-Slaying Society.

What many purgatory demons don't understand is why Anna Karelina, the princess of purgatory, values ​​this little third-level lord so much.

Later, not only did he actually lend Thane several lord-level demons for him to study, but he also never refused requests for resources in other areas.

For the few resources needed for the members of the God-Slaying Society to practice, Thane doesn’t even need to step forward himself. He only needs to send his two pure-blooded men. Just a succubus maid.

Two second-level succubi, because they are pure-blooded demons, plus the succubus queen Anna Karenina.

So much so that other lord-level demons around Thane's territory had to behave obediently when they saw them, and eventually held their noses and offered resources to them.

Thane's stone castle has been expanded again compared to the previous period.

In the newly built martial arts field on the west side of the castle, Obiye and Ronaldo, two little guys who have just mastered the power of the blood of powerful alien creatures, are competing.

In the attic not far from the martial arts arena, Flynn looked at his two companions with some envy.

Once upon a time, as a mage, he was the core of this small group of three people.

However, now as Obiye and Ronaldo become stronger and stronger, Flynn has been left behind.

A few days ago, Flynn used his signature magic hand of fire phosphorus to spar with Ronaldo.

The magic he was so proud of could not even break through the dragon scales on Ronaldo's body.

Before Flynn could use his second magic, Ronaldo's giant sword was placed across his neck.

If he keeps the distance and gives Flynn a few more chances to cast spells, he will definitely be able to break through his companion's defense, but if he loses, he loses.

While he felt envious and blessed for his companion's improvement in strength, Flynn himself couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

To this day, Thane has not taught Flynn any advanced magic.

In recent times, Flynn's main activity has been cleaning the library.

This library was just built by Thain, and it contains some books that Thain brought from the wizarding world. It's not an advanced book, most of the content is basic knowledge that only apprentices can use.

Thain's purpose is exactly the same.

Compared with ready-made and powerful spell models, Thain wants this little guy to understand what real magic is.

Flynn, this kid, has decent qualifications and good understanding.

These days, he is also seriously studying and reading these magic books that he has never touched before.

When Thain took his last school test, as a reward for Flynn's outstanding performance, Thain gave him a crystal ball.

The mage group in Faerûn has not developed the crystal ball manufacturing process, and the development of alchemy in this world is extremely slow.

Although the gods all have their own "artifacts", the artifacts are made by means of divine power and laws.

It is suitable for creatures above level 4‏​​‎​‏‎‏‏‎‎​‏‏‎‎, but low-level creatures have no advantage.

Thain suspected that this was also a deliberate act of suppression by the gods of Faerûn.

This crystal ball makes Flynn unable to put it down.

This kind of multi-functional equipment that integrates testing attributes, storing pictures, and long-distance communication is the first time it has appeared in Faerûn.

When Flynn was envious of his two companions' increasing strength, his two companions were also envious of Flynn's situation.

Moreover, both companions could see that the epic-level Master Thain seemed to be more interested in Flynn.

On the contrary, Flynn himself did not realize this just because he was in this mountain.

…

As the three little guys enriched Thain's daily experimental life, the first god-fall event since the arrival of the Saint's catastrophe finally broke out in the center of Faerûn, far outside Purgatory.

The fallen god is called the God of Colorful Birds and Pelicans.

This is a god whose name Thain has never even heard of. Its name has never been heard of before, including many gods in the main material world.

With only weak divine power, it was even weaker than the Hercules that Thain killed last time.

The reason why this colorful bird and pelican god is not famous in Faerûn is probably because he is too weak.

Its weak strength makes it do its best to hide itself and keep a low profile.

But it is a pity that the coming of the Saint's catastrophe has made such a weak existence the first target to be targeted.

The one who took action was the God-killing Society.

This secret organization, which was jointly wanted by the gods from all major factions in Faerûn, would be fine if they didn't take action, but if they did, they would become a blockbuster!
