Chapter 892: Shadow

"This situation has allowed the wizards to find a way."

"Seal the consciousness and cognition of the gods, and let them use them as tools to continuously consume power."

"At the same time, it was also this operation. After another group of wizards discovered that these powers and consciousness did not correspond, combined with the elves' methods of transforming the natural gods, some wizards tried to replace the consciousness of the gods with themselves and the consciousness of the dead."

"Let the ancestors replace the gods."

"Pile up the number, defeat the strong with the weak, then seize its strength, and then pile up the number."

"Two different schools of wizards began to gradually expand, eroding and destroying the natural gods one by one."

"Use your own body as a container to seal the consciousness of these natural gods."

"However, the powerful assimilation of the blood of the gods has completely eroded wizards.

"Although they obtained a bloodline that can be passed on, perhaps, at this time, they also began to gradually lose the idea of ​​​​constantly fighting at the beginning."

The middle-aged man with silver hair and silver eyes said with emotion:

"However, among the wizards, there are still some who have not chosen the path of sealing the blood of the gods."

"In the eyes of the wizards at that time, there was no difference between the blood of the gods and the blood of other monsters. They were all materials from powerful creatures and were used as tools."

"The reason why these wizards refused was because of the powerful assimilation of the blood of the gods, which had an impact on their path—"

"The path of the bloodline wizards, the assimilation of the powerful power of the bloodline to the weak human body, in addition to the physical damage, there is also a change in the spiritual will."

"The original research line of these wizards is how to neutralize and weaken the influence of blood power on the spiritual will of wizards."

"And after coming into contact with the research results of elves on spiritual consciousness, among the wizards, those wizards who used their own sacrifices to distort the will of the elves' natural gods also came from this faction."

"After the prosperity of the elves is broken, they are still studying the power of spirit, will, and belief."

"'Bloodless' and 'White Robe', these are what the blue-blooded wizards call them."

"then"

Elsa looked at the other party, listening to the other party spit out words that she had never learned but were very familiar with.

"The empire of wizards has been established."

"Relying on the blood of the gods, relying on the inheritance of the blood, one by one forces will rise from the ground."

"The church, also in this process, fell into decline in the process of the natural god being continuously killed, divided, and sealed by wizards."

"But it was the bloodless wizards, those white-robed wizards, who dealt the church a fatal blow."

"There is a very clear distinction between blue blood and non-blue blood."

"Without using blood, they are not much different from ordinary people."

"Wizards, infiltrated and sneaked into the church."

"Then, the church was gradually occupied by white-robed wizards."

"Even in the end, the personified gods with the power to directly interfere with reality disappeared from the church's beliefs, and the natural gods worshiped by these churches were replaced by a plan of the white robes—"

"'Light of Truth'."

"Abstract, unknown truths pursued by wizards, in the name of gods, replacing the previous gods."

"After that, 'Bloodline'."

"Hehe, the philosophy of wizards is pragmatism to make the best use of everything. The most suitable people do the most suitable things, and the most suitable people have the most suitable positions."

"However, since the bloodline inheritance began, even on the way to the most prosperous peak, the wizard's empire has begun to decay."

"Pragmatism, under the maintenance of blood, has also cultivated traitors who are profit-seeking and self-interested than the group."

"In the end, the empire of wizards collapsed."

The middle-aged man spoke with emotion, and then turned his gaze to Elsa:

"The history of the world is a repetition of folly, an infinite loop."

"Who do you think will act when humanity begins to decline?"

His words made Elsa slightly taken aback, and then, she immediately thought of something:

"You mean"

The middle-aged man did not reply immediately, but looked out the window, at the forest, and at the creeping shadows:

"Time has collapsed. With the death of the real Earl of Mercury, I should also be buried in time. However, I am still there, but it is just a phantom of time."

Then, he turned his gaze back, smiled and said to Elsa:

"Sleep too long, but you will not wake up, you should go, dear Alti."

"It's very dangerous to get lost in time, not to mention the passageway shaped by the dreams of those white robes."

As the sound sounded, Elsa seemed to feel something and wanted to do something, but immediately, her figure was swept by flowing silver light and disappeared into the castle.

Immediately, the middle-aged man turned around slowly, and looked at the inside of the castle that he was very familiar with:

"'Elder'? Is that what she called you?"

There was still an elegant and calm smile on his face.

"If I hadn't been too familiar with you wizards, I might have been deceived by you, thinking that you were explaining the situation to the younger generations."

"Based on my understanding, and the rationality of you pragmatists, you probably secretly turned Elsa's memory upside down, right?"

Following the sound, a black shadow gradually emerged from the dark corner of the castle.

The overall human-like silhouette, the pitch-black body, seems to be a shadow-like body with no entity, only the outline can be observed, and the specific details cannot be identified.

However, that rather huge body is not human. At least, ordinary humans do not have such a huge body.

Looking at the shadow of the human figure, the middle-aged man laughed:

"Dream spells are what the white-robed wizards are good at. Unlike elves who use the stars as an intermediary to absorb the power of the long river of time, establishing a channel of time through dream spells requires the dream master to have a clear and clear memory of the corresponding time nodes."

"If you don't have a clear enough memory, it's easy to get lost in the chaotic space where dreams and time intersect."

"The reason why I appear here is not Elti. No, that girl is Elsa, not Elti. My existence is not because of Elsa's memory."

As he spoke, he looked at the shadow with a half-smile:

"It's you."

"My memory doesn't even violate the harmony. The situation in my memory and the logic of what happened can be deduced and connected smoothly."

"Alti can't even do it, let alone this little Elsa."

The middle-aged man looked at the figure shaped by the shadow:

"The blood of the gods will swallow consciousness, memory, and cognition."
