Mage Adam Chapter 440: Civilization in desperation (2)
Let's call this civilization the Warlock civilization for the time being.
No matter how you look at it, it's not strong.
The acquisition of power is accompanied by the demise of life, and the continuation of the race is accompanied by the death of more clansmen. They are like the eggs under the nest that is about to collapse, and they will face extinction at some point.
Except for the ninth-level life, the strength of the entire race is vulnerable to mages, and their power is aimed at the evolution of monsters. The disadvantage of being too targeted is that it is easy to be targeted by other forces. If they are The enemy of the mage, then the fourth holy tower only needs to send a few exploration mage to collect back information, and develop a potion that catalyzes the mutation of the body, and then it will be broken without attacking.
But these warlocks, this world, have the qualifications to be called civilization.
In a desperate environment, but the civilization as a whole is not desperate. Nahum does not believe that they do not know the fact that they will fail and perish one day in this environment with almost no external resources. However, They did not lose the courage to resist and the hope of survival, but did their best to arm themselves with all the resources they could collect against the enemy.
What is even more commendable is that they maintain a stable social order. Even if resources are scarce, ordinary people have not fallen into hysterical destruction and mutual attacks. Although they are hungry, they have no idea of starting with the same family. He did not give up his dedication because he cherished himself. After the dedication, he consciously left the city to ensure that the soldiers had a better environment.
The same is true for the extraordinary. They are warriors and should have more resources under the current situation, but they do not rely on their own strength to oppress others, but accept a unified supply and fight with their own lives. to feed back society and civilization.
This is a silent race, they strive to break out in silence, and they accept that they perish in silence.
There are few pedestrians in the city, and there is no trace of commercial activities. The streets are dilapidated but fairly clean. There are only various ancient machines on the streets. Nahum saw some warlocks walking beside the machines, or put them in The resources collected from monsters, or the direct input of energy in exchange for the needs of life, and those energies are scattered along the loop, these loops go deep into the ground, spread throughout the plane, and strengthen the position through the energy dedicated by the warlock. noodle.
After walking through the city, Nahum left here and quietly went to the other cities in this plane, and found that what happened was almost the same, he rushed to the rest of the warlock civilization again, and things were no different. .
Three days later, he entered the plane of the ninth-level sorcerer.
This plane is larger than the others, but it is limited. The environment is even harsher. There are no ordinary people. The demonic energy on the plane is raging to form a storm, and there are only a few large cities in calm places.
All are industrial cities.
Some warlocks operate ancient production lines and manufacture all kinds of machinery; some warlocks wear protective clothing, dissect monster bodies and test them on themselves without hesitation; The rudimentary equipment fuses and decomposes various materials, preparing and transforming the liquid in the culture tank.
There is also a factory that makes something similar to a biochip. Nahum guessed that this is how they pass on their knowledge. It's rough and simple, but it's understandable, after all, they don't have extra time to educate the next generation.
Nahum saw these warlocks use their power. They cut open their bodies, opened the cracks in space with their flesh and blood as a guide, and then summoned contracted creatures from them, most of them monsters, and a small part of them should be through their unique means A Void Wanderer that connects and summons.
Not to mention wandering creatures, their ability to enslave monsters is very powerful. The brutal nature of these monsters is suppressed, and they work obediently for the warlocks. Some warlocks kill monsters without hesitation after the work is completed, and absorb their Life energy replenishes itself.
But the supplements are clearly not entirely benign, and they suffer tremendously.
The souls of the dead monsters are bound up and swallowed by them, making a reserve for the next spell casting.
The warlocks use the summoned creatures to carry various machines and transport them to various sub-planes according to the established roads. A large number of advanced individuals are distributed along the most dangerous void passages, ready to deal with the raids of monsters at any time.
In addition to contract summoning, they can use the power of shadow and flame. The power is very good, but the damage is two-way. Nahum guessed that this ability should complement the summoning, and they must have the ability to share damage. Otherwise, at the advanced stage, perhaps before killing the enemy, they will die of their own abilities.
"This is self-mutilation," Nahum fully recorded their spellcasting process. "If it were not in a desperate situation, no world would develop such a deformed development. It is using the future to win the present."
Nahum spent five days walking through all the cities in the main plane of the warlock civilization, then released his breath little by little, and walked down-to-earth to the central city where the ninth-level warlock is located.
The appearance of alien energy is like a beacon in the dark night. It is discovered by the senior warlocks in the main plane in an instant. They don't need to be mobilized or commanded. They put down their work, walk out of the factory and leave the city. One way to approach Nahum's direction ~IndoMTL.com~ No one spoke to Nahum and no one attacked, they just followed around him and watched him.
It wasn't until Nahum walked outside the central city that he heard the first voice conversing with him: "Hello, distant guest."
———
While Nahum was on his quest, the Advance Legion was not idle either.
Everyone is constantly analyzing the existing information, comparing it with the previous information, and finding more and more doubts. The biggest one is the feedback of the background radiation in the void. Although it feels incredible, this void has boundaries and ends. Yes, it is like a box, and the location of the fairy civilization blocks the exit.
"Have you discovered the void boundary in the past?" Adam asked the super-dimensional mages of the second holy tower beside him.
The super-dimensional mage frowned: "It has been discovered, but it has never appeared so definitely. In the past, although it was called the boundary, it was constantly expanding, but here, it is completely fixed or even slowly shrinking."
Another super-dimensional mage said: "This is obviously abnormal. The Fourth Epoch is still very young, far from this point. This scenario is very similar to the epoch catastrophe in the simulation."
At this time, Wendy returned from the outside world and said, "This is a special void zone that has been isolated..."
