There are five card slots floating on the torso and limbs of the giant image. A glowing rune stone has been inserted into the left hand, while the other four places are still empty.
In view of the fact that matter and energy can be easily transformed into each other in this magical world, there is reason to believe that there have been, or should be, four similar rune stones inserted into the remaining four empty slots to achieve a certain effect. In addition, there is an energy bar next to each card slot. The energy bar of the empty card slot is naturally empty. The one under the left hand has been charged about a quarter.
Based on the experience of playing games for a lifetime in his previous life, Oster fully understood that this was a high-definition real version of holy objects and artifact energy. The LEG version has arrived so soon. Do you want to turn on the refresh mode?
Joking aside, I heard Solarius say that the object on the card slot is a sacred artifact called a leader's relic. What looks like stone is actually part of Sargeras' iron body.
This was a sealing measure taken by the leader back then to prevent Sa Shu's knowledge and power from being misappropriated. The names of each part are: the torso "Immortal", the left foot "Strengthener", the right foot "Skills", and the right hand "Sword Holder"; together with the activated left hand "Spellcaster", they represent the various parts of the book. Partial authority, and a special ability inherited from the leader.
Nine years ago in the 20th year of Stargate, the previous guardian Medivh failed in the seamount landing battle due to serious betrayal, and the second revolution fell short. The guardian was judged to be disqualified by the magical AI in the book. The Book of Sargeras immediately closed all permissions, and the leader's relics originally inserted in it were automatically locked.
After the traitor Medivh sealed himself in Sashu, in order to prevent the AI from finding the next qualified guardian according to the program, he used special magic to destroy the leader's defense agreement and removed all five relics. He then disappeared, and his relics were handed over to the Church of Light, the enemy of the Burning Revolutionary Army and the puppet of Titan, for safekeeping.
Although Pope Alonsus Faol, who had just fled to the Kingdom of Stormwind at that time, was in a state of embarrassment, he still knew that these objects were of great importance, and handed them over to the major lords of the Holy Temple of Light in the south for safekeeping at that time;
The left hand rune stone belongs to Bolvar Fordragon, the high lord of Stormwind City, the right hand belongs to Grayson Shadowbreaker, the high lord of Elwynn, the left foot belongs to Reginald Windsor, the high lord of Redridge Mountain, and Yi, the high lord of Westfall. Rulon Tubre holds the right foot, while the torso is under the care of the Pope himself.
Since these paladin lords all hold important positions in the Kingdom of Stormwind and the Church of Light, they hold heavy troops and are very powerful. In addition, the Tiris Arcana Society, which is controlled by the traitors, is constantly harassing them. The severely damaged agent team lacks the strength to fight with them. The entire Aixing ruling class has been fighting and has been unable to regain these relics.
Although later, Medivh's book storage disk hidden in Karazhan was tracked and discovered by agent Maqzhar, who led a team to recapture it; however, due to the lack of rune stones, the normal magic circuit was blocked, and Sashu fell into a trap for nearly ten years. It fell into silence and was unable to activate and find a new guardian - until the arrival of a certain time traveler.
During this period, many incidents occurred: Marshal Windsor was killed because his affair with the queen was exposed, and the sacred left foot was confiscated by MI7. It was said that it was owned by a colonel named Samuel Todman. Responsible for safekeeping; during the incident when the Dawn State became the Twilight State, Pope Faou was forcibly "died" by his subordinates due to a series of suicide attempts. The torso of the holy relics was handed over to the Twilight Lord of the local cult, Errol Eber. Locke holds it; as a well-known miser, Lord Tublay has a perverted desire for various treasures. He went to the north to excavate Titan ruins and was finally killed in a Vrykul tomb in Howling Fjord. The position and the huge treasure trove containing the right foot relic were inherited by the ascendant Grian Stroman.
The Grand Duke of Fordagon, who holds the left hand, is the highest-ranking among the caretakers. He has been working diligently, carrying the sacred objects with him, and never leaving them until the Northern Expedition broke out. The Grand Duke, who was at the core of Stormwind City's power, unfortunately fell on the wrong side of the real and fake king's coup, and was sent to the front line to die along with a group of old nobles. More than a year ago, as the First Corps was annihilated by the Omnic Legion in the Battle of the Scourge's Gate, Fordagon was captured, and this leader's relic returned to the hands of the Revolutionary Army.
After Arthas seized the holy object, he immediately reported it to the superiors of the Revolutionary Army. At the suggestion of Kil'jaeden, acting chairman of the Supreme Council, the prince sent a secret envoy all the way to deliver it to the agent team in the south. This is the only "caster" rune stone in his left hand that is currently activated, and it is also the origin of Oster's current copying ability and access rights.
In addition, Oster clearly remembers that when he first opened the interface, the charging progress of the energy bar next to his left hand was only a little, less than 1%. Later, when the light was used, it remained motionless. It has not been used for several months now, but it has risen to a quarter without realizing it;
So it must not be residual energy, nor is it likely to be things like the number of uses, proficiency, or experience bars. What does it represent? How can we be lifted up and filled, and what happens after we are filled?
Oster asked Solarius, and the answer he received was, "I don't know." The Dread Lord said that he had never been a Guardian after all, and that many things he heard from previous Guardians. In fact, the leader never left anything like instructions, and the guardians were all exploring on their own;
All we know now is that this grimoire, in addition to being an encyclopedia of mortal spellcasting systems and containing unparalleled energy, also hides a major secret buried by Sargeras before his death; only by passing all the tests of Sargeras' AI can this secret be unlocked. Secret, inherit all the knowledge and power left by the leader.
However, even if the guardians of the past generations are as outstanding as one in a million, no one can do it during their term of office. Medivh, once known as the most promising, once reached the fourth step of decryption, but in the end he was betrayed.
Auster thought in his mind that so far, the Book of Goldfinger is still full of mysteries.
Judging from the information obtained so far, his future upgrade route is basically: first collect the remaining four relics dug up by Medivh to return Sashu's magic circuit to normal; then fill the energy bar next to each rune stone. Unlock the secrets left behind by Sargeras. Thereby activating all the functions of the golden finger, reaching the pinnacle of life, and clearing this game.
However, the problem is that he has obviously been activated in hell mode and only has one life. Those relics are currently being protected by people at the final BOSS level of the epic raid. Each of them holds the military and political power of a state, with almost unlimited military and financial resources. It is equivalent to giving you a gun and asking you to challenge the chairman of the military region, four in a row. Let alone playing in a group, he is still at level 0 and has not obtained a single piece of equipment;
There are also those unclear energy bars. What does "obtaining magic AI approval" mean? How can it be improved? Does it require experience, gold coins, artifact energy, or direct charging? I have no clue at all.
Auster couldn't help but sigh, it was indeed a violent game, that's what it tasted like. No task prompts are given at all. What to do next and how many more steps are next? It's all about guessing.
In addition, there is the most important question: What is the connection between Sargeras's relics and the electronic urn in his previous life? Why did he choose himself and summon his soul to this world? It seems that you have to guess the task before you can get the answer.
