The Lord of Ashes

Compared to the low-key attitude of the demons in purgatory during this catastrophe of saints.

So far, the biggest commotion in this Saint Catastrophe has been the conflict between the God-Slaying Society, the Great Dragon of the Outer Sea, and the rival gods from different camps.

This is probably something many people have not thought of beforehand.

The God of Justice is in seclusion, the Lady of Darkness has not been involved in world affairs for a long time, and the God of Elements is determined to control the chaos of the entire continent, but he is also somewhat powerless.

As a result, the catastrophe of saints caused by the three destiny stones has become a stage for other interested people to fish in troubled waters.

Thane did not waste his energy on the turmoil in Faerûn. His time was precious.

In the laboratory.

Thain, who has peeled off the godhead of the God of Morning Light, is using his own elemental microscope to observe the white-gold energy crystal in front of him.

Different from the Godhead of Hercules and the Godhead of Broken Bira in Thain's hands, the Godhead of Morning Light in front of him seemed to have some kind of strange energy factor covering its surface.

As a result, this piece of godhead, which has essentially reached the level of a fourth-level creature, now reveals properties that are only similar to the core of a demigod-level creature.

"This should also be one of the essences of the Saint's Catastrophe. A layer of special rule power limits the power of these gods and the use of their divine power." Thain raised his elemental microscope and guessed.

According to the information collected by Thane from previous Saint Catastrophes, as well as the information fed back by the Succubus Queen and others, only after the Saint Catastrophe is over will these "sealed" gods regain their former glory.

As for the Godhead of Hercules and the Godhead of Bira, since they were dug out before the Saint Catastrophe, the power and special laws contained in them are not limited.

The limitations of divine attributes are a loss and embarrassing situation that they cannot accept for local gods such as the God of Morning Light.

But for Thane, this restricted godhead makes it easier for him to explore the truth and mystery.

Especially the godhead of the God of Morning Light. As his research deepened, in addition to generating new ideas in the field of light spell models, Thain also had another intellectual inspiration, which was to integrate the mysteries of light that he had mastered into Not long ago, he created a lot of demon masks.

A magical mask that combines the power of demons and light?

Only Thane from the wizarding world would have such an idea!

Among the demons in purgatory, none have mastered the power of light, an attribute that conflicts with their own. On the contrary, they are naturally repulsive to the power of light.

"Let me see what the secret is..." With excitement and nervous murmurs, Thain once again devoted himself to experimental research with great energy.

…

When Thane entered the experimental state again, Flynn, Ronaldo and others, who had recovered somewhat from the last battle with the Hunting God, also started running schools again. The dead Arnold's actions at the end of the last battle made Flynn, Ronaldo and others feel very depressed.

The word betrayal is not that new to the God-Slaying Society.

Although under siege by major camps and many temples, the members of the God-Slaying Society have always united and helped each other to get to where they are today.

But when the real temptation to become a god is presented to them, how many people can refuse?

In fact, in this Saint Catastrophe, so far, two gods with weak divine power have died in the crazy siege of the God-Slaying Society.

But the strange thing is that after the death of those two gods, including the members of the God-Slaying Society who surrounded them and killed them, they also disappeared and were completely missing.

These members of the God-Slaying Society, and some even their family members and descendants, were sent to the purgatory space.

But still refused to contact outsiders.

It can be understood that they do not want to bring disaster to their family and future generations.

?But what is the specific reason... Many people may have other ideas in their minds.

The human heart is the most untestable thing.

After this happened last time, Flynn, who inherited Thain's philosophy of being a spellcaster, didn't get too entangled in it.

Spellcasters themselves are a group of people who tend to be rational.

Under Thain's influence, Flynn became more rational and gradually shed some of his sensibility.

On the contrary, Ronaldo, who has always been careless, rough and heroic, has never been able to get over this incident.

Arnold is 100 years younger than Ronaldo. It can be said that Ronaldo almost watched him grow up.

With the help of Thane, Ronaldo obtained the blood of the dragon, but he and Obiye, who has demon blood, have not given birth to a single offspring so far.

It is inherently difficult for high-level creatures to conceive offspring, and the different bloodlines absorbed by Ronaldo and Obiye make it even more difficult for them to conceive offspring.

It can be said that Arnold has been regarded as a son by Ronaldo.

No, maybe those young children in the Warrior Academy are all regarded by Ronaldo as his own.

Arnold's betrayal and death left Ronaldo in a daze for a while.

Regarding this matter, Flynn wanted to help his friend, so he asked Thane for advice.

In Flynn's eyes, there is almost no question that the erudite Master Thain cannot answer, and there is no secret of truth that he does not know.

If Thane also embarks on the path of faith and becoming a god, Flynn, who has been with him for nearly two hundred years, will definitely be the most ardent believer.

Faced with Ronaldo's confusion and confusion, Thain pondered for a long time and indeed gave him the answer.

"The warrior academy, ranger academy, archer academy, thieves academy, etc. that you and Obiye established seem to only involve the correct training methods, and regard killing gods as the highest goal that can be accomplished." "But it seems that you lack Learn something, such as spiritual construction." The erudite Master Thain said to Ronaldo during his free time between experiments.

"Spiritual construction?" Ronaldo scratched his bald head. This was his new look recently. He didn't know if it was because he had lost all his hair recently.

Ronaldo's shiny head was bigger than Flynn's.

But his reaction ability and understanding are not even one-tenth of Flynn's.

The "spiritual construction" mentioned by Master Thain was too high-end and Ronaldo couldn't understand it.

When this idiot turned to look at his good friend Flynn, a look of contemplation and enlightenment appeared on Flynn's face.

"Haha, that's it. Maybe in addition to basic combat skills and cultivation techniques, you can also teach those little guys new cognitions - such as justice, fairness, compassion, freedom, dedication, etc." En explained it a little more clearly.

?These things are not original to Thane, but when he traveled around the wizarding world, he saw many knight academies in various parts of the wizarding world.

What he mentioned above are also the concepts that many knight academies in the wizarding world transmit when new students enter.

"These things seem to be somewhat similar to what the temples in the main material world advocate." Ronaldo scratched his head and said.

Many temples in Faerûn, when recruiting believers, will not only tell all believers that they must believe in the gods devoutly, but sometimes they will also spread some concepts of truth, goodness and beauty, especially the Justice League.

In Thain's opinion, this is because sheep are more likely to be harvested for their faith than hungry wolves.

When Thain saw this, he shook his head and said, "The difference is huge. At least we won't ask those little guys to believe in anything."

"And we will also tell them what true power is and what the nature of this world is."

"The so-called gods are just higher-level life forms and are not worthy of worship."

"When our interests are threatened, we will rise up."

"Inferior creatures should not be the objects of exploitation and plunder by the gods."

"In this regard, the innate environment of your continent in Faerûn is even better than that of other civilizations in the star realm."

"At least there won't be any saint catastrophes in other planes. Those creatures of level four and above are high above. Unless stimulated by external forces, they will always sit high in the clouds." Thain said a series of words, regardless of whether Ronaldo understood or not. .

After saying this, Thain turned to Flynn and said, "You can spread your correct understanding of the world to other colleges appropriately."

"The truth is not only mastered by magicians. In the wizarding world, there are many examples of magicians and martial arts masters." Thain said.

"Yes, Master." Flynn replied respectfully.
