The Lord of Ashes

I have lived alone in the deserted yellow sand world for more than a year.

You can imagine how excited Thane was when he heard another voice of will that could talk to him.

Of course, the premise is that the voice of will causes severe pain in his mind.

After glancing at the pitch-black passage he came from behind, and realizing that he was probably lost in this underground space, Thane decided to follow the guidance of the voice of will and continue to move deeper into the passage.

In fact, the grandeur of that voice of will also marked that Thain had no room for compromise or resistance.

Just the sound could cause him such great impact and pain. If that guy had intended to harm him, Thane would have collapsed long ago.

After walking forward for about an hour, Thain came to a relatively empty sand cave.

The surrounding darkness was swept away.

What provides light is not the sunlight shining through the cracks in the sand, but the yellow energy crystals inlaid throughout this sand cave!

This is an energy crystal that exceeds the limit of Thane's knowledge. At least in the laboratory of his mentor Moshe Duo, Thain has not yet seen a top-quality crystal that is comparable to the quality of these energy crystals in front of him.

The bright yellow light almost blinded Thain's eyes.

Roughly speaking, there are dozens of yellow energy crystals embedded in this sand cave.

"Do you want these second-level energy crystals?" The familiar voice of will appeared again, but this time, the opponent's force was much smaller, and Thain did not feel a splitting headache.

He couldn't help but look towards the source of the voice of will, and then, Thain's body froze.

This is a giant insect with only half its body left, embedded in translucent yellow amber.

Although only half of the body is left, the opponent's length has reached an astonishing nearly 100 meters.

The entire sand cave wall was covered by the curled-up body of this disabled giant insect.

The huge fangs and the broken stubble at the end of half of the body make people shudder.

The size and ferocious appearance of this big guy made people feel chilled all over, but its voice of will was very easy-going, as if it didn't mind giving these precious secondary energy crystals to Thane.

Facing the question from this person who was probably the king of all sandworms, Thane lowered his head and fell silent.

In the Dark Territory, unequal strength means crushing and being crushed. There is no possibility of equal communication at all.

Thain didn't think he had anything worthy of the fear of this terrifying sandworm king.

Although Thain fell silent, the sandworm king embedded in yellow amber did not stop speaking.

I saw it introduced: "Energy crystals are indeed the common currency in many planes of the star world. I believe that the same is true for your powerful wizard civilization."

"These secondary energy crystals are nothing but the final condensation of earth element energy that volatilizes from my body."

"It is a rare treasure to you, but it is almost useless to me."

"I see that your life level is not even level one?" the Sandworm King continued.

Thane remained silent.

It's not that he is pretending to be cold, but that he really doesn't know what to reply to the big guy in front of him.

Individuals who are not at the same level of life sometimes find it extremely difficult to even communicate.

Because they have different perspectives, perspectives on things, and ways of thinking are also very different.

Not to mention the second-level energy crystals, even the first-level energy crystals, Thain has never touched them a few times. He has only seen them in his mentor's laboratory.

As for the first-level life level mentioned by this sandworm king, it should refer to the level of a formal black magician such as mentor Moses.

"You asked me to make a deal before. What deal?" After a long time, Thain finally asked.

He didn't master the mental communication skills, so Thane used the language of the wizarding world.

Fortunately, this mysterious big bug can understand what Thain said.

Including Thain's inquiry, he also wanted to take the opportunity to know his strengths, or where he relied.

What does this mysterious and powerful bug need Thain's help for?

trade? Since it is a transaction, Thain must be useful somewhere.

As a spellcaster, Thain didn't want to be at the mercy of others. He had to at least take back some of the initiative.

Faced with Thain's rhetorical question, Big Chongzi fell into silence for a moment.

After a long while, the big insect slowly said: "I was a person who accidentally entered your wizarding world through a rift in time and space.

An alien creature. In the power level recognized by the star world, I belong to the fourth level creature. "

"Maybe you, the guardian of the wizarding world, had some misunderstanding about me. She drove me away and left me in this broken plane."

"What I want to trade with you is that I hope you can pass on the relevant goodwill to your wizard civilization on my behalf."

"I heard that your wizard civilization established the Wizards Alliance. Well, I want to join the Wizards Alliance." The giant insect with only half of its body replied.

By observing the only half of its body, it is not difficult to guess that when the guardians of the wizarding world expelled it, their methods must not have been very gentle.

"In return, I can give you all these second-level energy crystals."

"And you seem to have been looking for a way back? I can also point you to the general area where the space passage was at that time." The Sandworm King said.

This sandworm king has obviously paid attention to Thain for a long time, and it even knows that Thain is looking for a way back to the wizarding world.

It's just that things like the Wizards' Alliance and the Guardians have exceeded Thane's ability and cognitive limit.

He did know a little bit about the Wizards' Union, it was a fragment of information Thain had read in a certain magic book.

For example, the centaur plane he had seen in the book before seemed to be one of the member planes of the Wizards Alliance.

As for the guardian... what kind of existence is that?

Thain seemed to have heard the two peak level three magicians at the other end of the space channel mention it during the battle that day, but this was definitely beyond Thain's ability.

But Thain did not remain silent.

Those secondary energy crystals were secondary. What really attracted him was that the Sand Worm King proposed to point him to the general area of ​​the space passage. This was related to whether Thain could return to the wizarding world!

"How can I help you?" Thain asked aloud.

With Thain's life level not even level one, it is obviously impossible for him to have access to too many secrets and high-level affairs in the wizarding world.

The Sand Worm King was obviously aware of this, and after hesitating for a moment, he continued: "You can find a way to contact a certain holy tower organization in your wizarding world and inform me of my situation."

"As long as there is a Holy Tower Master who is willing to introduce me, I can resolve the misunderstanding with your wizard civilization and join the Wizards Alliance, and there is a high probability that it will be possible." The Sand Worm King replied.
