Whether they are mages from the Kingdom of Bradaka, necromancers from the Kingdom of Hellesh, or druids from the Kingdom of Elloland, legal professionals in the world of Ashan have always believed in one truth, that is, "knowledge represents strength"!
The strength of a mage is certainly related to their own magic power, but knowledge is also an important factor in determining the level of achievement a mage can achieve.
Death Lord Alandir, he is a true wise man. He is the most knowledgeable in the Kingdom of Hellesh. His words and deeds are calm and majestic. The burning light in his eyes is as vast as the sea of smoke. Every one Everyone who has come into contact with him will be impressed by his wisdom. Even his enemies, while hating him, have to admit that he is a respectable opponent.
Of course, this refers to Alandeel in his normal state. If someone mentions Asha, the Dragon of Order, in front of him, that would be another matter.
Alandeel at this time will let you see what a fanatical believer looks like...
In the world of Ashan, the dragon is not only a "giant winged fire-breathing reptile", but also the main god and the incarnation of magic in the world of Ashan.
Mortals in the world of Ashan are aware of the existence of dragons and respect them, and sometimes even fear them. People swear by the name of the dragon, and the existence of the dragon permeates every aspect of people's daily lives.
Among the poems praised by the world, Yasha, the dragon of order, is the most unique existence. People firmly believe that she is the goddess of creation, the mother of time and space, and the weaver of destiny!
She created the world and hatched six elemental dragons to dominate it; she controls the destinies of all mortal creatures: she weaves their destinies when they are born, measures their destinies as they grow, and Cutting off their fate when they die, these three functions are mythologized by the world as the three sides of Asha.
Namely: birth, life and death!
Among other kind and lawful races in the world of Ashan, they often believe in the first two aspects of Asha. However, in Hellesh, the country of the undead, although the necromancers here also choose Asha as the goddess of their belief, they are Believe in the last side of Asha: The Dark Side of Death!
The necromancers' understanding of Asha's power and characteristics is distorted, and they even concretize their belief in Asha's dark side. They believe that the incarnation of Asha's dark side is a huge and dark As for the spider, this spider is the so-called "Destiny Weaver", and it is officially used as the mark of the necromancer.
The spider tattoo on Arantil's forehead comes from this. He is a fanatical believer in the dark side of Asha. He gained great power by practicing undead magic, but he attributed this achievement to Asha's favor for him. He claimed that he was Asha's chosen one and that he was destined to be chosen by the Spider Goddess!
In his opinion, it is his destiny to fight against the goddess's younger brother, who is also her old enemy, the demon descended from the dragon of chaos Orgas, and restore order to the world of Asha! Regardless of whether the name of the Chosen One is real or he is self-hypnotized, Alandeel is indeed resolutely performing his duties.
In the legend, Asha maintains absolute neutrality. She will not favor good people or bad people, dwarves, elves or orcs. Everything is Asha's creation, but she shows the most direct opposition to the chaotic creed represented by her twin brother and its crazy offspring-the devil. It is precisely because of this that Arantil acted in his life. Among them, he also hated the devil extremely.
Now, the reason why Arantil appears in this desert of death is precisely because of the unspoken sixth lunar eclipse four years ago. During this lunar eclipse, the sudden appearance of the demon army shocked the entire world of Ashan. , the Kingdom of Erathia was invaded by demons. The most powerful country on the continent, its capital, Standwick, was almost destroyed in this demonic invasion.
Although with the help of allies from various ethnic groups, the Kingdom of Erathia finally saved its capital and temporarily repelled the demons. However, during the short period of peace, Alantil smelled something unusual.
After the war, Queen Isabel of the Kingdom of Erathia seemed to have a drastic change in temperament, and she continued to do many incomprehensible things. Although many people are saying that this may be because her husband Nikolai was killed during the war. The reason why the demon killed her seemed a little irrational due to her grief, but Alandeel felt that it might not be that simple.
In addition, some intelligence and signs indicate that after the demonic invasion, there were some fallen mages in the Kingdom of Bradaka who worshiped the power of demons and chose to follow the demons. They secretly supported Iof and sent them to the demons. of minerals and resources.
In the Kingdom of Hellesh, many necromancers were originally forced to flee due to the persecution of the mages of the Kingdom of Bradaka, so Alan Diel did not have a good impression of the mages of Bradaka. When these fallen mages After the signs were revealed, Alandeel included them among the enemies to be eliminated.
Coming out of Helles this time, Alandir's purpose was to find out the chaos that was happening in the Kingdom of Erathia, and to find a way to eliminate the demon of Iofre, which he believed was his responsibility as the Chosen One. Responsibilities lie.
But to achieve this goal, Alantil must have a powerful army...
In order to assemble a huge army, Alan Diel has been traveling around the world of Ashan for a long time. He found many rotting corpses from the rotting tombs and transformed them into zombies. In the poisonous fog swamp, , he recruited many corpse witches (people in the Ashan world like to call lich corpse witches), and then risked his life to steal the dragon's bones in the dragon cemetery and create a bone dragon. Now he He traveled to the Desert of Death, hoping to find the remains of ancient warriors from the tombs of Pharaohs thousands of years ago and recruit them to join his undead army.
With his ability to perceive the land of death, Alan Diel led the army to this oasis. However, when he arrived here, he found that someone seemed to have disturbed the undead here, and a big battle broke out. , the entire oasis is now littered with dead bones. The land of death under this oasis, the undead that have been brewing for thousands of years, have been destroyed in one fell swoop.
If it was destroyed, it would be destroyed. Alan Diel didn't care much. The Death Desert was so huge. There were many similar places of death and pharaoh's tombs. He would just look for others. However, what remained in this oasis was The aura made Alan Dier very concerned.
"The smell of brimstone and fire, this is the breath of the devil!" Alan Dier gently sniffed the message in the breeze, then carefully checked the footprints left on the ground, and said while looking: "There is also a huge one I don’t know what the creature is, but it looks like the footprints of some kind of dog. The footprints it left are the deepest... There is also a human female footprint here, but it is difficult to say whether it is a human or not..."
What makes Alan Dial feel most nervous is another footprint!
Alan Dial found several footprints on the ground, but these footprints were actually masses of black ice. To be precise, they were a small piece of frosted ground! The frosted ground was very tight in the middle, and traces of freezing spread in all directions. Alan Dier observed for a while, but could not see any sign of melting on these black ices. On top of these black ices, There was a concave footprint, and from this footprint, Alan Dire restored a model of a strong sharp claw.
Crouching down, Alandiel tried to reach out and touch the solid ice footprints. Unexpectedly, when his hand touched it, there was a slight tingling sensation, and he could feel the existence of a weak electric current on it!
At the same time, I can also feel that the magic power on my fingertips has disappeared slightly...
"Asha controls everything!" Arantil said one of his mantras, and asked in surprise: "What kind of devil's footprints are these?"
Yes, from the footprints with sharp claws, Alan Dial judged that these were the footprints left by a demon. However, in his impression, many demons left flaming footprints. It was very easy to judge, but The black frost footprints like this now actually contain footprints of lightning and demon-devouring power, but Alan Dial has never seen it before!
Just when Alandeel was confused, behind him, a vampire count wearing a cloak, a sword in his hand, and sharp canine teeth exposed at the corners of his mouth came forward and said to him: "Your Excellency, these footprints are still there. The fact that it was not covered by wind and sand means that the owner of the footprints left not long ago, should we catch up and take a look?"
"Yes, Count Giovanni, we must catch up and take a look!" Alantil turned back and glanced at the vampire count named Giovanni expressionlessly, and said: "This may be a powerful unknown force. Demon, his appearance may not be a good thing for the world of Ashan. We must find out his movements as soon as possible. You and your vampire troops have excellent action capabilities. You may be able to catch up as an advance army to take a look, but don't There will be a conflict with the devil, and we will wait until my troops arrive later!"
"I will follow your orders, Lord Alantir!" Giovanni grinned, caressed his chest and saluted, "Asha controls everything!"
"Asha controls everything!" Alan Dier also responded to him.
Then, Giovanni's body suddenly turned into a huge bat and chased in the direction of the footsteps. Behind him, a large number of vampire troops followed the count and turned into a large number of bats, huffing and puffing. Fly forward.
Looking at this scene, Alan Dial remained expressionless, but his right hand hidden in his wide sleeve suddenly lit up with a faint light.
A small wizard's eye appeared in mid-air, quietly following behind Giovanni and the vampire troops...
