Chapter 211 Alien Civilization! Modo

Divine-like power.

This is a general term used by other crystal wall systems to refer to those who possess divine power but are not true gods.

The more common divine powers include: Demon Lord, Ancient Wild God, Slaad Lord, Ancient Evil, Elemental Lord, Elemental Lord, Archdevil, Grand Duke of Hell, Demon Lord, Five Lords of Gadin, God and Monster Lord, Animal Lord, High-level Titan, High-level Spirit, Great Goblin, Singularity, etc.

Ok.

To this must be added the mysterious Lady of Pain, who is also a quasi-divine being.

The Slaad Lord is one of the Wild Gods, the closest thing to a god among the Slaad race. During the Dawn War, some Slaad Lords joined the Chaos Queen's side.

By the way.

In the Crystal Wall system of the Kingdom Sky, the Goddess of Darkness - Shar and the Goddess of the Moon - Suren created the Mother of the Earth - Shangtia. In the Dawn War across the Crystal Wall system, they summoned a large number of foreign gods to defeat the invading wild gods and won the victory on the Kingdom Sky front.

Of course, in the Dawn War of Gods in ancient times, it was relatively easy to defeat the Kingdom Tianyu Crystal Wall System, after all, there were many big guys there, but it was not so easy to defeat other Crystal Wall Systems.

The xenographer in front of Sean came from the Kingdom of Sky, the Plane of Faerun, the Overseas Islands, and the City of Modor.

Under the comfort of Sean's spiritual power, Dandy, who was sitting opposite him, opened his heart. He unknowingly regarded Sean as his "most trusted person". He recalled: "I was born on Viper Island."

"Of course, there are no poisonous snakes there. It is the parish of the goddess of the sea."

"My mother is a wizard in Mordor City. This is a legendary title, usually only awarded to legendary witches above the level of Grand Mage."

"When I was young, I grew up in the Broken Isles."

"Because my mother was very busy, I actually didn't know who my father was, and my mother wasn't married. I always suspected that she used magic to create me from the seed of a powerful wizard."

Mod City?
Xiao En had vaguely heard of this place.

The Weird Kingdom's understanding of other crystal wall systems is very delayed, and many records are from the Dark Ages, more than a thousand years ago. Although there have been souls from other worlds coming, many of their memories are incomplete, and they come from many crystal wall systems, so it is difficult to collect complete plane data.

Xiao En asked, "I heard that the arcane civilization in Mordor City is very developed?"

Alien scholar Dandy nodded, his expression involuntarily revealing a hint of pride, and said: "Of course, Modor City is one of the most developed places in the entire country of Tianyu."

"The power of magic is everywhere there."

"My mother is one of the members of the Lower Council. She is a magician and a legendary spellcaster. She is just an ordinary member of the council. There are 365 legendary members as powerful as her in Mordor City, and they rotate regularly."

"Not all legendary wizards can become councillors."

As if noticing that Sean was very curious about Mordor City, the Alien Scholar recalled and introduced: "There are seven advanced magic schools and more than ten university towns there. It is a very, very large city with a population of nearly 50 million, not counting other developed planes and areas."

"You know."

"Legendary wizards usually have their own demiplanes. My mother has her own fiefdom. An interdimensional magic ball leads to a small plane, which is also considered a part of Mordor City."

Xiao En nodded slightly and said calmly, "Yeah."

The alien scholar fell into recollection, his expression somewhat lost as he said, "It is very difficult to stand out in Mordor City. My mother has always wanted to enter the High Council, but it is very difficult, extremely difficult. Even some famous legends may not be able to get a position."

"So in my memory, I have always been a stranger to her."

"I was taken care of by a diamond golem during my childhood. Can you imagine what it's like for a child to be raised by a golem puppet?"

At this point, Dandy smiled and said, "There are many diamond golems in Mordor City."

"It is said that Lord Death captured a comet made entirely of diamonds. It is rumored that it has not been completely used up until today. This is because the diamond golem is a bit outdated. Since the invention of the arcane golem, more and more mages have given up on the traditional golem construction."

“But some of it is still preserved.”

"Because some diamond golems have awakened their own thoughts. My babysitter is one of them. It is a construct who calls herself Lauren."

Arcane Golem?
The Golem puppet has its own thoughts? Is artificial intelligence awakening?

Is there no defense in Modo City?
Right.

If there really were so many powerful legendary spellcasters, there would be no need to worry about artificial intelligence rebellion at all.

Xiao En's expression was solemn. He increased the output of his spiritual energy and said calmly, "Then can you make an arcane puppet?"

The alien scholar nodded and said, "A little bit, my friend."

"You saved me."

"If you want to learn, I will teach you everything I know!" (Mind hint, friendship is full.)
He picked up a blueprint and used transcription magic to draw a unique arcane golem construct. It had a unique arcane crystal structure and an exoskeleton-like arcane steel structure on the surface. The other party handed it to Xiao En and said, "I once studied abroad at the Royal Mage Academy in Arendelle. There is a special legendary construct course there. I am also good at traditional golem construction."

"This is a synthetic table made by Austrian steel. It is a substitute for adamantium and costs one-fifth of the cost."

"This is the combined table of Nether Mithril. It is cheaper than Mithril and costs only one-third of Mithril."

"Arcane dust, often used for permanent enchantments."

"Astral dust is relatively easy to find in outer space and has a wide range of uses."

Recipes, synthesis tables, and design drawings were copied out one by one.

The other party possessed a great deal of knowledge, and he had indeed received a fairly high level of arcane education. For Sean, that knowledge was something that was hard to come by, but for him it was just a required course in daily university courses. If he didn't learn well, he would not be able to graduate successfully from the Royal Academy of Mages in Arendelle.

“No wonder the demigods were fighting for the souls of other worlds back then!… The knowledge they possessed is equivalent to the culmination of another civilization!…” Xiao En murmured.

Arendelle.

Another place name I haven't heard of.

The xenographer explained, "There are sixteen high-level wizard academies throughout the Overseas Islands where students can study legendary expertise. Some of us will go to the Royal Wizard Academy in Arendelle as exchange students, or enter the Star Tower Academy of the Northern Witches."

"These two places, one specializes in energy transformation and alchemy, and the other specializes in divination and spells."

Xiao En asked in confusion: "Then why didn't you advance to an arcanist, or a great wizard, but instead became an alien scholar?"

Dandy smiled bitterly and said, "Rebellious period."

"My mother wanted me to become an arcanist, or a royal mage in the court of Arendelle. But I was very rebellious at that time and was interested in all kinds of strange things."

"And the union in Mordor City has been secretly collecting intelligence about distant countries." "By chance, I got the news about the Eternal Exile Scripture."

"friend."

"My talent is not outstanding, at least I am not considered a genius there. I graduated from the Mage Academy in the 182th District of Mordor City, which is not a famous school at all, and my graduation score was nd."

"If it weren't for my mother, I might only be able to study at an ordinary arcane university after graduation."

Modulo City implements universal education, and general knowledge is a compulsory learning content. If parents do not allow their children to complete the general knowledge course, they will be fined and sentenced to one and a half years of hard labor.

The talented ones among them will receive educational subsidies from the city hall as early as the sixth grade of elementary school, which is higher than the salary of many working people.

Formal mage apprentices receive a subsidy of nearly fifty gold derricks per month, and can receive it for a full five years. If they still cannot become a formal mage after five years, they will no longer receive this subsidy.

If some people with outstanding talents or hard work can enter the official organization of Modor City, after serving for 30 years and being promoted to high-level legend (level 25), the mage can obtain the Type I extra-dimensional sphere (interstellar spaceship) allocated by Modor City and get his own small fiefdom in other demiplanes.

It is precisely because the competition is so fierce that the xenographers in front of us have to take a different approach.

In a place where magic is widely taught to all, there are ordinary people with high intelligence (above 12 points) everywhere, and even street cleaners can cast one or two low-level spells (1-2 rings). A genius with 16 intelligence points is nothing there, and some people with rich family background can rely on powerful rare items to stack their intelligence attributes to more than 25 points to assist in learning arcane knowledge.

The alien scholar recalled: "Through my mother's relationship, I was admitted to serve in the Death Speaker Fleet. During the process of exploring the astral world, I paid a little price and bought a 'merit' from someone."

"In return."

"My mother will nominate him to become a trainee captain of the extra-dimensional sphere, and he will give me this merit so that I can enter those advanced academies for further study."

A reasonable exchange of interests.

Mordor City tends to be lawful and neutral, but the unspoken rules of not violating the law are allowed. The fastest way for ordinary people to get ahead there is to join the Star Fleet to explore other planes and crystal wall systems. Although it is a little dangerous, as long as you make contributions, you can be promoted quickly. Rewards for merit and punishments for faults are the foundation of Mordor City's rise. If someone embezzles credit, the officials of the Star Fleet from top to bottom will be removed and severely punished. In more serious cases, they will even face the court of judgment composed of "death walkers".

There are many old monsters in the Inquisition who have lived for hundreds of years. Some of them can even be traced back to the turbulent times in the overseas archipelago. Some of them are as powerful as demigods.

Dandy smiled bitterly and said, "If it weren't for my mother, it would be very difficult for me to even be promoted to Legend."

"A big part of the reason why I am so powerful now is because of the alien knowledge recorded in the Eternal Chaser Canon."

Go through the back door.

In the end, due to the difference in talent, the alien scholar in front of him chose to take a detour, so he began to learn the weird knowledge about the distant universe.

"After obtaining the Scripture of Eternal Chariot, I was successfully promoted to a legendary spellcaster."

"Then, I started looking for the second artifact, the Ebony Magic Mirror."

Xenomorphist Dandy said calmly, "I sold the interdimensional sphere (interstellar spaceship) that my mother prepared for me. I spent a lot of money and asked the current Eye of the North to help me. The other party is a very powerful prophecy mage. She predicted the direction of my future for me."

"So I entered the Sea of ​​Chaos and drifted in it for several years."

"finally."

“By chance, I found the Ebony Mirror with the guidance of a very powerful Szeth Brother (Githzerai), and used it to peek into the madness of the distant lands.”

"This has allowed me to rapidly improve my level as a xenographer."

"But I didn't expect that when I was about to be promoted to a high-level legend, something unexpected happened. I was caught in the turbulence of the Chaos Sea. As soon as I arrived in the Distant Kingdom, I was eroded by the terrible consciousness of the old days. I saw countless huge spiritual bodies wandering in the void."

"Part of my power comes from the terrifying knowledge and laws they possess."

“This is driving me crazy!”

"My consciousness was lost in madness, and I don't remember where I drifted to. The few memories I have are of being captured by the Mind Flayer fleet until you opened the mental barrier for me."

Under the influence of Sean's psychic power, the other party definitely did not lie.

He is from Mordor City, the descendant of a legendary astral wizard, and once served on the Death Speaker Fleet. After he was attracted by the strange knowledge in the "Book of Eternal Chariot", he fell deeper and deeper, and was eventually guided into the distant universe by accident.

The advancement of the Alien Scholar is essentially the use of knowledge and laws from distant countries.

The Book of Eternal Chase allowed him to enhance his intelligence at the cost of his perception, turning him into a true genius. However, the side effect was that he was affected by madness, and most of the extraordinary paths in the distant universe had to be promoted at the cost of losing SAN points.

Xiao En pondered for a moment and said, "Do you still remember the courses you took when you were in school?"

Alien Scholar-Dandy looked a little puzzled and replied: "I remember most of it. But those are the most basic knowledge, you should have mastered it a long time ago."

Xiao En said seriously: "Then can you recall and copy out the contents of these textbooks?"

“They’re very useful to me.”

Alien scholar Dandy nodded doubtfully and said, "It should be fine."

"I was given a strong memory when I was young. If you need me, I can not only copy the arcane books of Mordor City, but also the textbooks of the Royal Mage Academy in Arendelle. I don't know much about the things in the Star Tower, but the courses on the School of Prophecy are my minor subjects, so I can copy them down as well."

Xiao En nodded happily and said, "That couldn't be better."

With the knowledge accumulated by the current real country, it is still a bit difficult to fully open the spellcaster inheritance system. In the past, it was a one-on-one teaching method. If there was ready-made textbook knowledge, then the next step would be much easier.

It is better to copy it now than to do it now.

Xiao En placed the other party in his own Mechanical Heart demiplane. The alien scholar Dandy's mind has not been completely stable. He must have looked directly at the past, so he was left with serious sequelae.

The Modor City mentioned by the other party is a place with highly developed arcane civilization.

As can be seen from the books copied by the alien scholar Dandy, which record in detail the promotion factors of spellcasting professions such as mages and warlocks, many super-magic specialties are just the syllabus for routine assessments.

"But there they use spell slot casting!"

"So these books need to be revised." Sean began to revise the teaching materials for spellcasters.

Mana pools and spell slots.

Before Lady Hecate was promoted to the goddess of death and magic, spell slots were not applicable to spellcasters in the grotesque kingdom. Moreover, due to the existence of the original magic, if the activated original magic was not killed, the spell slots would be like filling in the blanks in its body.

This is very, very dangerous.
