Chapter Eighty-Eight: It's Time to Accumulate and Develop! …… Hey?
In the dead of night, everything is silent.
The clock ticks by.
The knight girl sat calmly in the room, while Xia Ran ignored her at all, just concentrating on writing and drawing in her notes, writing down her feelings, and guessing about some suspected examples.
There are not many examples of "armor", whether it is the world of The Elder Scrolls or other worlds, the difference is only that there are only a few words of description in other worlds, or the corners of legends.
Only in the world of The Elder Scrolls has this theological phenomenon been studied and summarized.
But think about it, the people of this world are really too free, and the gods basically do not set restrictions on any realm in order to pursue transcendence, just to let this world evolve and have infinite possibilities.
As a result, all the mortal races in that world are different, and their theological knowledge is not only very rich, but even their agency has gone in strange directions—
Because of the "Dragon Break", no one can know the true history before the "Dragon Break", only that Aka is the time god who existed when the world was created, and this one is recognized as a great existence.
However, it is said that in the earliest mythological era or elven era, the mysterious elven ancestor King Orielle, through some means, put on Acre, covered Acre itself, and transferred all the creation myths to himself.
Later, it came the historical stage of the Alesian slave uprising, the fall of the wild elf empire, and the establishment of the first human empire. Because there were not only elven nobles in the rebel army at that time, but also Nords and Nids, and various races were mixed.
Therefore, in order to satisfy the subjects of the races, or to make them feel full of a sense of belonging and fight for the beliefs of their own race, the queen of Alesia at that time took the initiative to establish the Eight Holy Spirit Sect to integrate the beliefs of the Holy Spirit from various parties.
Most importantly, she made the elven god-king Oriel the head of the Eight Holy Spirits, saying that he loved humanity, and renamed him Akatosh.
However, since this is only a political ploy after all, Akatosh is not the real Holy Spirit after all, but just another name for the elven god king Oriel. So after the death of Queen Alesia, the human side became more and more dissatisfied-
Because Oriel was a god-king who hated creation and was an elven ancestor, and was not a dragon of time who loved creation and humanity at all, why would they believe in the non-existent side of such a god?
If it is a normal religious historical change, it is probably that mankind has learned from the pain, abolished the faith of Akatosh, and re-established a new religious worship...... But instead of doing so, they took the Staff of Chaos and performed a special magic ritual on the Platinum Pagoda, the center of the universe at that time, and "blew up" the concept of the time dragon god Akatosh from the elven god king Oriel.
And because the elven god king Oriel wore Aka, which is equivalent to time itself, this explosion blew time itself into multiple fragments, and modified all the history from the beginning of creation to their special magic rituals, so that Akatosh has appeared in history since then, and has appeared as a time dragon god who shelters humans from the beginning of creation.
They can even do such a dangerous theological phenomenon as "Dragon Breaking", and "armor" is naturally no problem.
As for the examples of armor in the world of The Elder Scrolls, there are actually quite a few examples of armor or suspected armor in other worlds-
"I came from the end, I don't have any nostalgia, I just stop here." Writing down such a sentence in the notebook, Xia Ran gently tapped on the edge of the table.
The concept of the Antichrist is recorded in the New Testament book of 1 John, which appears four times throughout the book. Antichrist means "to replace Christ," and the Bible term is more important to refer to a specific character, in whom the above negation is extreme.
This concept does seem to be related to the phenomenon of armor......
And a better understanding example may be the demon kings described in "The God Killer", who killed the gods in the sky and seized the overlord of the supreme divine power, this kind of behavior is definitely armor.
When a person becomes a god killer, and then his whole person, from the inner soul to the outer body, is completely transformed into the template of the disobedient god who was killed, whether it is ability or authority, it is 100% copied......
So is there really any difference between the situation of the godkiller and the armor that became the god?
"It's really too complicated, but do these examples show that armor is not so dangerous, and it really replaces the concept of gods, rather than being replaced by gods in reverse......"
Xia Ran complained, and then looked at another manuscript, which depicted a circular pattern similar to a wheel, extending from the core to the outside of the "spokes", the inner circle and the outer circle nested with each other, forming a stable structure.
The pattern is surrounded by dense text that makes people feel dizzy at first glance, and those ancient characters that do not belong to any kind of writing on earth seem to have a terrible magic that takes away the soul of the viewer.
- "Tower".
This is definitely the top and most dangerous, the occult knowledge that can be called the truth level of the universe, and it is probably the most valuable thing that Xia Ran has obtained from the Elder Scrolls.
Although it is not a molded piece of equipment, nor is it a stand-alone skill. But there is no doubt that its value is beyond all else...... Of course, the level of danger is also beyond all else.
If it can be mastered, it will be a step to the heavens, beyond the eternals, and can achieve the most noble immortal deeds...... But if you don't grasp it well, blowing yourself up is just the lightest result, and it's not surprising that you blow up the world.
However, Xia Ran can't reproduce the Platinum Pagoda now, artificially create the center of the universe, and control all the laws and constants of time and history...... Such a terrible thing, he couldn't understand how this tower-like magic device that simulated the world wheel worked, and what the principle mechanism looked like.
Of course, it does not mean that the mystery of the armor ascending to the gods is so low, and he can fully grasp and understand it. It's purely because the armor method is the reason why Mephala used it to tempt Xia Ran, so he knows a lot about it-
After all, the demon god had dissected this path to godhood in great detail and presented it to him, so that as a mortal, he could understand the steps and details, and even the corresponding occult principles.
But the knowledge of the "tower" is different, and Xia Ran's ability to obtain the knowledge of the "tower" is completely an accident.
It's all because the essence of the seal of the Ebony Blade is actually the reason for the Elder Scroll, and then there is the time when the end of the world is just in time, probably because of the instability of time and space, which caused him to read the Elder Scroll directly.
Originally, reading the Elder Scrolls was a very troublesome and complicated thing -
Not only does the reader have a talent for foreknowledge, but they also need to follow the rituals in order to be able to read the Elder Scrolls at a certain cost, at the cost of a temporary loss of sight, and even permanent blindness after reading the Elder Scrolls many times......
Because these scrolls existed before the flow of time, and when the mortal realm took shape, the scrolls were already hidden in them. It is precisely because the existence of scrolls is beyond time, vague and abstract, that it is so difficult to read, and they are not simply written on paper.
If you don't read through complex rituals, then there is another way, and that is the scanning and extraction information technology of dwarven technology-
It is said that in ancient times, the dwarves developed a dwarven technology device that extracted the information of the scroll, and could read the information inside it without sacrificing their eyesight. It was an extremely complex set of mechanical equipment that extracted the information from the scrolls and output them in their text to a specially made quadrangular body.
However, the problem is that this race has long since disappeared from the world, and it is necessary for scholars who are very familiar with their race and culture to find the intact dwarven technology devices that have survived to this day, and operate them in the right way to reproduce this method......
- So this approach is not very realistic.
The only exception to this is that at the temporal rift in the Throat of the World, the Last Dragonborn managed to read the Elder Scrolls (Dragons) without ritual preparation, and learned an important dragon roar from it, which led to the Duduin Death.
This probably means that in the unstable time and space, it is indeed possible to read the Elder Scrolls directly, but the last dragonborn is the ceiling of human combat power, the existence of the human dragon soul, and the best among the demigods, so there is no at all.
And Xia Ran unexpectedly reproduced such a situation, after reading an Elder Scroll, even if there was space to carry around, he still paid the price of being blind for a few days.
The knowledge of the "tower" was obtained from that scroll, and at the beginning, he was like reading a book from heaven for the content that was shoehorned into his mind, and he couldn't understand any part of it at all, even if it was only the outermost corner of the knowledge points.
As for the current words...... I can already begin to understand some of them, although there are still many things I don't understand, and it is far from being possible to build a "tower" like a world center and enforce the laws and rules that I have made around the world.
But he began to try to combine these occult knowledge with magical abilities such as enchantments, which was quite rewarding.
The most important thing is that probably because this knowledge belongs to the level of creating a new world after all, even if it is just able to use some fur, Xia Ran feels very inspired by himself-
Especially for the "Inherent Enchantment", a great magic trick that he has never been able to find the key point, even if the witch of the god generation has personally tutored him many times, he still can't enter it, and now it seems that it is also ......
"Maybe there's a reason why I'm more mentally strong."
Xia Ran glanced at the knight girl who was sitting quietly on the side, and began to try to mobilize the power of the mind, trying to seize this opportunity to manifest the heart like a landscape.
The inherent enchantment is the embodiment of the mental landscape, the enchantment that shapes the mental image world of the caster and erodes the real world, that is, the enchantment, and the space within the enchantment will be alienated, or simply artificially created an otherworld.
Although it will be corrected by the world and requires huge magic power to maintain, it is indeed a powerful skill, and now it seems that there is an opportunity to touch it, and Xia Ran will naturally not miss it.
The magic passes quickly......
Nothing happened around......
Hey? What about skill effects? He blinked in confusion.
