Chapter 558 Time
During the Age of Gods, the true gods were the real strong ones, and only the true gods were the rulers. Other beings, even demigods, were actually no different from ants.
The only difference is probably that the emergence of gods in the Age of Gods is inseparable from the belief in intelligent life. Some good gods treat these intelligent creatures very well, but the same cannot be said for evil gods and evil gods.
In the barbaric era before the Age of Gods, intelligent beings feared the world far more than they trusted and respected them. Therefore, evil gods and evil gods who appeared in Runeterra accounted for the vast majority, even Naga Kapoulos.
As for the evil gods, so the most powerful among intelligent beings, the demigods, had a difficult time in the Age of Gods.
Some evil gods always like to cause trouble for demigods. If you are lucky, you can survive. But if you don't please the evil god, unless the true god behind the demigods comes forward, you can't even think about surviving.
In order to survive, the demigods are basically a group of old coins. No matter who they are, they are always on guard. Many demigods do not even plan to stay in order to avoid being plotted because of their heirs.
Descendants.
Because of this, many demigods are old bachelors. Even if they survived from the age of gods, they have no idea of looking for their significant other. With their minds, they can probably treat their significant other as an enemy.
Are you sure you're not feuding with someone you're dating?
After the end of the Age of Gods, extraordinary creatures also withdrew from the stage of Runeterra due to Icathia's Void Invasion War. Human mages had almost no natural enemies, and there were no people or creatures who could directly destroy them without any explanation.
Therefore, the mages began to establish rules and maintain the rules, and did not intend to interfere excessively in the mortal world, so as not to fall victim to the calculations of mortals.
A peaceful and stable environment is very suitable for mages to explore the truth, but in a chaotic and turbulent era, it is easy for mages to be plotted by various forces.
After all, human mages are not a whole, but are divided into countless magic associations. Even they themselves don’t know how many magic associations there are. Some hidden magic associations of black magicians like to secretly trick other magicians.
Join hands.
It’s also known as making sure you have the awareness to be prepared for danger in times of peace.
Look, is this human language? I appreciate your help?
"..."
In response to Balliard's argument, Ezreal said that he would not get involved. You can say whatever you want. I will listen, but I am adhering to the principle of caution. In order to avoid someone eavesdropping, I will not say anything.
,I don’t have any opinions to express,
"Speaking of which, have you noticed any problems with the distribution of obstacles here?"
"Distribution? Sun Shangxiang, raise the detector and take a look at the overall situation here."
Valliard did not carefully observe the terrain here. It seems a bit late to start checking it now. Using technology is the most direct and simple method.
"It's Your Majesty... Your Majesty, I have no hands."
Sun Shangxiang answered subconsciously, but after answering, she realized that she was now a tiger. She had to use those huge tiger claws to operate instruments that human hands could not operate with precision. Isn't this embarrassing the tiger?
"Then let's change to someone else. In short, let's explore the terrain here clearly."
Prime Minister Balliard
Letter Ezreal can also draw more accurate conclusions by looking at the complete image.
"...Your Majesty, it's done."
Kevin has returned to his old age, but his learning ability has not declined. After all, he is a scavenger. If he is not good at learning, he will not be able to survive in such a chaotic era. The preferences of the nobles in each place are different, and the preferences of the common people there are also different.
, as a scavenger with no industry or fixed income, he would not be able to visit more than a few cities in his life if he did not learn more methods.
"Ize, look at it."
Valliard looked at the terrain and found that some of the collapsed areas were indeed unusual.
"Yes, this place has indeed been excavated. Can you guess who dug up the remains of this giant beast?"
Ezreal didn't find anything like bones around here. Flesh and flesh may have decayed and broken due to age, and then merged with the surrounding rocks and soil, but the bones of a demigod were impossible.
Can't stay.
There are a lot of skeletons left behind by those giant beasts outside Marrow Seal City, which are even higher than the walls of Marrow Seal City. However, most of the strength of those giant beasts were around the ninth level during their lifetime, and only one or two reached the level of demigods.
.
The rune energy concentration in the outside world is so low that the bones can be completely preserved. Not to mention the rune energy concentration here is so high, the rune energy remaining in the bones will better preserve these bones.
After knowing that the giant beast might have died here, he felt that the ancient mage might have kept the bones of the giant beast as a collection, but as he explored the place, he no longer thought so.
"Isn't it taken away by the Mage from the Age of Gods?"
Balliard saw a lot of trophies of the ancient mages in the previous warehouse, and there were a lot of bones inside. Who knew if they belonged to this giant beast.
"The traces of mining in the surrounding soil are quite obvious."
Ezreal gave another message.
"This is a laboratory wrapped in a stasis barrier. The time inside does not change with the flow of the outside world. We can move here. In fact, it is because as the owner of Zhongya's hourglass, I have not turned on the stasis barrier.
Effect."
Balliard objected. Although the traces here are brand new, it is actually because the situation inside will not change much.
"Will the stagnation barrier open and close automatically? How long is the interval? When it is open, time will also pass for things inside it, right?"
Ezreal still feels that there is something wrong with the situation here. With such new excavation traces, there is no guarantee that someone else has entered the ruins.
"It turns on automatically every thirty years, one hour at a time. What's wrong?"
Valyard revealed the information he had obtained, and it seemed that Ezreal had really discovered something remarkable.
"The traces here will not exceed three days. Counting three days, if it is turned on for an hour at a time, it will need to be turned on seventy-two times in three days. The outside world has passed 2016 at most. I don't think that the Mage of the Gods is still alive at this time.
Alive."
Ezreal's calculations are considered accurate, even if there are some errors, but considering the tens of millions of years of history of this place, the errors of decades or hundreds of years are nothing.
"...I may know who has been here."
Two thousand years? This is somewhat different from the era of the person that Balliard remembered. However, don’t forget that the traces here are no more than three days. To be precise, the time in the outside world is between 1440 and 2016.
between.
Eighteen hundred years ago, we were also in this time period.
"who?"
Ezreal immediately asked.
"Xerath, do you understand?"
Balliard does not intend to reveal all the information to Sun Shangxiang and others, because the existence of Zelas or Zhuge Kongming is a huge threat to the new country and this world line. He is not sure, if he is
After revealing the information to Sun Shangxiang and others, will Xerath obtain the information through other means?
And if this place is related to some of Xerath's plans, the war may start early.
"...It turns out it's him."
Ezreal just thought about it for a moment and knew who the Xerath that Baliard was talking about was. In this world line, Xerath is probably the Zhuge Kongming who destroyed the City of the Sun with the power of the Seven Stars.
,
"What is his purpose?"
"We can only find out by continuing to explore, but I guess he gained strength here."
Because there is no ascension ceremony, Xerath will not stab Emperor Sima Yi in the back when he is performing the ascension ceremony, which will not lead to the collapse of the Shurima Empire.
However, Zhuge Kongming actually killed Sima Yi and destroyed the City of the Sun, relying on the so-called power of the Seven Stars.
Balliard once learned and believed that the power of the seven stars was the seven military soul legions, but how did these seven military soul legions that belonged entirely to Xerath come from? Are the soldiers in this military soul legion?
Where are people?
Maybe some of the insects here were controlled by Xerath and became his own soldiers, but because the appearance of these soldiers was so different, they were regarded as a special ability possessed by the Army Soul Corps.
This kind of ability would be easily accepted by people on the continent of Shurima, because ancient Shurima believed in gods with human bodies and animal heads.
"He's just a human being."
Ezreal knows about Xerath, that is, he is a slave. In this world, even if he is trusted by Emperor Sima Yi, Xerath is just a favored slave, a slave who has just escaped from slavery.
How could such a slave come to this place? How could he escape from so many wild beasts and come here?
Besides, even if Xerath was so lucky and came here, how could Xerath, as a mortal, transport the bones of that giant beast away?
"But there are some things that mortals can do. Don't forget the origin of the map in your hand. As long as you enter here, what a mortal can and cannot do is not theirs to decide."
Baliard still believed that Xerath gained his power from here.
Sima Yi once told him that Zelas cooperated with Void and was bewitched by Void. So, how did this so-called cooperation take place? Who was the so-called bewitcher who bewitched Zelas?
