The Lord of Ashes

"Perhaps in a few years, when the wizarding civilization truly begins to invade and conquer this world, the war will go more smoothly than imagined."

“There is no absolutely unified voice in this world.”

"And the various camps are entangled and exclusive with each other, making it difficult to unite them."

"This is nothing like the Wild Orangutan World War that I participated in." After entering the border city of the Kingdom of Bisos, Thain suddenly sighed as he looked at the setting sun, which was like blood outside the city wall.

Thain had the experience of being hunted by major temples in Faerûn before. If it weren't for the Spider Queen and the irresistible power that directly pushed him to break through all obstacles and reach Purgatory quickly, Thain would have been in trouble.

After leaving the purgatory space this time, Thain was a little worried. He was worried that he would be targeted by the major camps and temples in Faerûn again.

But the reality is that he thinks too much.

None of the major temples in Faerûn could care about him.

And with his mere third-level biological energy level, it is possible that after two hundred years, many gods will have forgotten about him.

Thane is nothing noteworthy.

What really deserves the attention of the gods of Faerûn is the god behind Thane, and the dominator-level existence that severely damaged the God of Justice.

It's a pity that many gods in Faerûn don't know the news that the God of Justice has been severely damaged, and the Kingdom of Justice has blocked this information.

Including more than 80% of the gods on this continent, they don't know why the Saint's Catastrophe will start in advance.

Due to insufficient preparation by many gods in advance, this Saint Catastrophe was even more chaotic than before.

Flynn, the legendary magician who was following Thain, didn't know what his mentor's sigh meant.

Flynn's growth potential is indeed greater than that of Obiye and Ronaldo.

Although he did not inherit Thain's core mysteries, the acquisition of more advanced truth knowledge and the correction of values ​​​​and world views made him now definitely regarded as the number one figure among the legendary powerhouses.

Thain still takes good care of these three little guys who have followed him for more than two hundred years.

This time, starting from the purgatory space, Thain took some time to build some handy equipment for the three of them.

Flynn's equipment is a special magic wand. In addition to accelerating magic regeneration and restoring mental strength, the magic wand given to Flynn by Thain was engraved with a powerful third-level magic called "Ash Explosion" that can be released three times.

Thain's power of ashes showed its extraordinary qualities as early as when he was promoted to level three.

Including Dark Fire, a fifth-level magician in the wizarding world, also expressed appreciation for the power of fire explored by Thane.

Although Rose, the Spider Queen, has never said anything clearly, when she surrounded Hercules two hundred years ago, she called Thain along with her, which shows that Rose also recognized Thain's power.

The ash explosion has been tested by Thain and has reached the level of power that can severely damage third-level creatures and threaten demigod-level creatures.

This time, Flynn and others were armed so that they could help at a critical moment.

‏‎‏‎‏​‎‏‎​‏‏‎‎‏‏ It’s not just Flynn, there are eleven people who came with Thane this time.

There were not many people, but in Thane's opinion, it was enough.

In recent years, the gods that have fallen in the Faerûn continent were surrounded by low-level creatures that participated in the siege when they fell. There were at least hundreds of people, and the movement was quite large.

Thain didn't want to bring too many people over because the target was too big and could be easily exposed.

For example, Thane did not bring his two second-level succubus maids, nor any other demons, and he also rejected suggestions from members of the Godslayer Society to participate.

The aura of demons is too obvious in the continent of Faerûn. Even if Thane can make space equipment to install them, it is not ruled out that the target god will discover it in advance.

As for those members of the God-Slaying Society...actually, Thain didn't trust them.

The eleven people who came with him this time were all trained by the academies in the purgatory space, and there were even two first-level mages among them.

The two mages respectfully called Flynn their mentor, so Thain was equivalent to their master.

While imparting basic knowledge and elemental knowledge to Flynn, Thane also instilled in Flynn the traditional virtues of respecting teachers and respecting morality in the wizarding world.

So far, Flynn has passed on the legacy very well, and he has also passed this concept on to the next generation.

"Master, where should we go next? Is the God of Morning Light in the Kingdom of Bisos?" Second-level warrior Ronaldo walked up to Thain and asked respectfully.

Ronaldo, who has absorbed the blood of the dragon, looks much stronger than before. He even has a second transformation form-dragon form.

Including the weapon used by Ronaldo, it was also a heavy ax, which was built for him by Thane, and even had a little bit of the essence of the Ax of Power incorporated into it.

The Ax of Power is the weapon of Hercules. Over the years, Thain has not only sliced ​​and studied Hercules' corpse, but also turned over and over again the artifact ax.

The Spider Queen probably wouldn't blame Thain, because before taking action, Thain had quietly asked the Spider Queen through the silver spider ring, but the Spider Queen didn't answer.

She has not contacted Thane for decades, and Thain believes this represents the Spider Queen's default attitude.

Ronaldo, who has a cheerful personality, is much more courageous than Flynn, who is introverted and humble.

He even calls Thain "Dad."

‏‎‏‎‏​‎‏‎​‏‏‎‎‏‏Maybe it’s because Thain’s strength and the sense of security he brings fit a certain image in Ronaldo’s memory.

Of course, it may also be due to Thain's mature age and the fact that he has been living in seclusion in the castle laboratory all year round, so he seems a bit "old".

This new title has not been passed down, and several people still call him "Master" respectfully.

Faced with Ronaldo's inquiry, Thain shook his head and replied: "Not necessarily. The Kingdom of Bisos, the Kingdom of Kenle and the Kingdom of Tiberius are all the main pastoral areas of the God of Morning."

"The God of Morning Light may appear in any of these three kingdoms, and we still need to investigate." Thain said.

"Hehehehe, God of Hunting... I've wanted to do this for a long time. These scum who only know ignorance and brainwashing, let's see if I can chop off their heads with my giant axe!" Ronaldo said excitedly.

This guy has a typical simple mind and well-developed limbs.

After receiving Thain's dragon blood transformation, his strength increased so much that he could no longer stay in the purgatory space.

In addition to the giant ax in his hand, the belt tied to Ronaldo's pants was also made by Thain. It is called the "Giant Power Belt" and is considered a good blessing magic equipment.

Thain didn't expect much about the role Ronaldo could play. He just told the three little guys not to die accidentally in the battle.

…

Two months later, at the junction of the Kingdom of Bisos, the Kingdom of Kenle, and the Kingdom of Tiberus, Thain and his party finally discovered the traces of the God of Morning.
