Chapter 617 Fusion of Peach Arc Thorns! The great day to slay demons! An arrow to the truth!
Witch Ekaterina waved her hand and immediately transferred all the furnishings in Locke's living room to the spiritual world, leaving the entire living room temporarily empty.
At the same time, she stretched out her left hand in the air, and suddenly a mahogany bow and arrow appeared in her left hand, and countless righteous forces gathered towards her palm.
At the same time, the great magic of Witch Ekaterina appeared. The beast tide ecology separated a jujube tree branch and fell on her peach wood bow. Then Witch Yekaterina suddenly aimed the bow and arrow at Locke's eyebrows.
Locke was startled, his whole body stiffened, and he subconsciously summoned the power of Mist to protect himself.
「Teacher?」
Ekaterina loosened her fingers, and the next moment, an arrow from a date tree branch landed between Locke's eyebrows.
The magic seemed to ignore Locke's permanent defensive force field and hit him directly between the eyebrows at an incredible angle.
Locke panicked for a moment, and suddenly realized that the arrow was not composed of magical energy, but simply spirituality.
In other words, there is no real magical energy.
At least this is the case for first-level wizards. At the first-level wizard stage, there is no ability to contact the world of imaginary numbers.
On the contrary, this arrow forced Locke's spirituality and the spirituality on the arrow to be in a state of assimilation.
Witch Ekaterina said: "If you had not reached the level you are now, I would not dare to do this. It is just my judgment that now you are qualified to receive my arrow."
"This is my inheritance, my teacher...it was passed on to me by a teacher who went to Star Territory Sea. So far, I have only passed this inheritance to four people."
"You are the fifth."
"This part of knowledge cannot be described in words and magic words, or it is not efficient. I used spiritual arrows to forcefully bring you in, combining the two powers of [Peach Arc] and [Thorn Arrow] into one." Witch Ekaterina watched Locke close his eyes, with a restrained spirit, and then walked out of the living room and entered Locke's study. Then, with a little curiosity, he took a look at the furnishings in Locke's study, then picked up the books on the table and sat down to read.
According to expectations, it only takes half a night for Locke to obtain the inherited witchcraft of their lineage.
But if it fails, a little external force is needed to awaken it from its spiritually restrained state.
So, she still needs to wait here.
Otherwise, accidents may occur if you are not careful.
At the same time, Locke felt that his spirituality had entered a special state. His spirituality was forced into a fixed fluctuation, and then he came into contact with an even more ancient existence.
First of all, he saw that in a certain dark age, countless evil forces suppressed the potential of the entire civilization in this dark and degenerate era of ignorance, which led to these evil forces being inspired and mixed into this society.
The scenes brought about by spiritual power are extremely real.
Locke soon realized that this should be the Dark Ages that archaeologists had mentioned briefly in the chronological history——
It is not known where the Dark Ages were in the entire era of wizard civilization. It is not known whether it was after the Age of Empires or the Age of Stars or before it, but the entire wizarding civilization once had this era.
I don’t know why this era was triggered, but the wizarding civilization of that era had a serious ideological rigidity and was unwilling to make progress. An authoritative idea made all wizards in the world adopt a belief in it.
If the mainstream thought is wrong, then the wizard is astray.
Anyone with objections will be suppressed.
Without reflection, the aggression of wizards was castrated, and perfect academic ideas ruled that world.
It was a dark age where there was no need for competition and every wizard was doing his own job.
It was a completely ignorant era, cold and lifeless. In the entire era, not a single relevant academic article appeared.
According to archaeological scholars' speculation, it seems that wizards at that time believed that ancient things were good things, so no wizards were qualified to write new research articles.
Furthermore, the popularity of magic has reached a new low in the history of wizard civilization. It is even suspected that it may be the early stage of wizard civilization, but various archaeological fragments show that this is not the case.
In short, it is difficult to conduct detailed research on the entire period because there are too few historical materials left at that time.
But why can Locke recognize it?
Because archaeologists have discovered the typical characteristics of this era based on archaeology - that is, the entire wizarding civilization excessively suppressed its own creativity in order to maintain a certain order and excessively pursued order and stability, resulting in the loss of the ability to resist many external forces.
In this era, a large amount of evil power from the endless void has been summoned.
Disk creatures invade the wizarding world wantonly.
There are other more evil forces.
In that era, the wizards whose thoughts were suppressed not only did not have pure thoughts, but also had more evil hearts. If these evil thoughts appeared for a long time, they would attract the attention of certain beings in the void.
Those beings entered this wizarding world.
Hence, a typical feature of the Dark Ages is that there are many monsters and monsters.
It was from this spiritual change that Locke realized that the era when this spirituality originated should be the dark age of the wizarding world.
Locke saw a city, the entire city was full of statues of various "great wizards of the past", all the words these great wizards said in the past, any fragments of magical understanding left behind.
In this era, they have become the most precious classics.
The statues of these great wizards of the past are regarded as gods in this city, and every wizard worships them.
Although he is not a god, he is no different from a god.
In this city full of "god statues", Locke saw a statue of a scholar in the center of the city.
The statue lowered its head and stared at all the wizards.
Countless wizards did not do research, but instead worshiped the statues here. Locke saw a wizard arguing with others here. The cause was unknown, but it seemed that the wizard had a different view.
Hence, other wizards in the city tried to guide him on the right path.
But the wizard used the ancient Peach Arc Thorn Arrow magic and worked day and night to build a bow and an arrow.
On this day, he drew his bow and arrow and aimed it at the statue in front of everyone.
All the wizards in the city who could not see their faces were shocked.
『Stop! That is the statue of the former Witch King, a statue of a high-level wizard. Do you think you are more powerful than those high-level wizards? 』
Your theoretical foundation is too weak, so you have extreme views! The Witch King is the embodiment of truth to us, and you should study hard with him. The Witch King is our teacher, how can you disrespect the teacher? 』
『You have to stay rational! Don't be conceited! 』
At this moment, Locke found that he seemed to have transformed into the wizard, being criticized by thousands of people, and being misunderstood by everyone.
Received looks from everyone who thought he was crazy.
Locke sensed that there seemed to be spirituality that allowed him to choose whether to shoot or not, and his spirituality was becoming more and more consistent with Catherine's spiritual arrow.
Lock frowned. If he just shot an arrow, that would be fine.
What’s the big deal?
He picked up the mahogany bow and jujube arrows, and the wizards looked panicked.
But the next moment, Locke was stunned, because the appearance of the statue changed, from a statue of a strange middle-aged man to a statue of the witch Catherine.
The various teachings that Witch Ekaterina had given him in the past also appeared in his mind in an instant.
Furthermore, the leader of the wizards who stopped also turned into Witch Mason. She looked at Locke in surprise, "Locke, are you crazy? You actually dare to shoot an arrow at the statue of the Wizard of the Throne!"
"Do you still have any sense at all? Look at you, do you still look like a human being! You have gone astray, put down the magic in your hands quickly."
Hitch Mason said: "Be honest and mindful."
"You cannot be affected by the messy spirituality here. You need to maintain respect for the truth. If even a wizard like you cannot guarantee respect for the truth, then who will respect the truth? Maintain respect? "
Witch Mason said: "The biggest enemy of truth is stupidity. Those stupid people are arrogant, so we need to use respect for the wizard of the throne to maintain the world's respect for the truth."
"Put down the arrow quickly." Witch Mason said: "This way you can integrate the two spirits."
"You need to find the reverence for the truth."
"What you want to shoot is not this statue, but your own foolish heart!"
Locke hesitated, and he looked at Witch Mason.
Start to think about whether the other person’s words are correct or not.
Which one to shoot?
At the same time, a second statue appeared behind Locke. It was himself who was fiercely rebutting others and putting forward his opinions.
Witch Mason looked at Locke and said: "Locke, listen to me. This is your last chance. Don't choose the wrong one. You must reflect on yourself with respect for the truth. Now you have to make the right choice."
"Your choice will be confirmed by the sacred dragon [Casiodrach] who originated from the Dark Ages. If you make the right choice, your arrows will receive the spiritual blessing of the sacred dragon Cassiodrach. This blessing will increase with every increase in your strength."
Mason Witch said: "The sacred dragon Cassiodrake is also the guardian of order and the guardian of truth. "If you make the wrong choice here, you will lose the blessing of the Holy Dragon. The Holy Dragon will always hate the wizard who taints the truth."
At this moment, a wizard suddenly came up behind Locke, looked at Locke and said: "Locke, shoot that arrow, shoot that arrow at the statue of the wizard on the throne."
"What throne wizard is not as good as a hair of yours. You are the greatest wizard, and you have the greatest knowledge in the world. If you want to shoot that arrow, everyone in the world will be stupid, and you are the most sober!"
Hitch Mason glared at him. "Shut up, you lunatic."
The wizard mocked: "That's much better than you who just follow what others say."
The wizard looked at Locke and said, "This is something that originated from darkness. The challenge of the truth of the era, the human wizard Cassiodrac. Only by shooting that arrow at the statue of the throne wizard can you get the spiritual confirmation of Lord Cassiodrac."
Locke frowned.
He found that it was more difficult than he thought to integrate the power of Peach Arc Thorns and pass this test to obtain the certification of a wizard from ancient history.
Both options have their own merits.
And it seems that he can't try his luck, because Locke began to doubt that no matter what he did, he was wrong.
It is a mistake to shoot either way.
So you don’t want to cum?
Locke began to think about whether he should choose this.
Hitch Mason had a quarrel with the wizard. "Stay not extreme. This way you can always be right."
The wizard said angrily: "I am the only right one! You are all liars."
Locke looked at the two of them and frowned. In the eyes of the two, he picked up the mahogany bow, opened the bow and nocked an arrow, and then aimed at the statue of the witch Catherine.
Locke looked at "Witch Mason" and said: "The greatest enemy of truth should not be ignorance, but the arrogance of thinking that one has mastered the truth."
"Witch Mason" looked pale. "If you shoot this arrow, I won't lie to you, you will definitely fail."
Locke looked at "Mason Witch" and said: "The ancestors are not lawful, and people in the past may not be able to understand what is happening today. My question, the theories of people in the past may not be understandable. "You want me to submit to authority, but I think authority is not the truth."
Hence the excited gaze of the wizard, Locke shot an arrow at the statue of the witch Catherine.
Suddenly the arrow was like the sun emerging from the body.
A sun sets into the distance.
Witch Mason shook her head slightly, as if she felt a pity for something.
The wizard laughed heartily.
But the next moment, his laughter stopped abruptly, because Locke shot deliberately, and the arrow passed over the statue erected in the city, destroying the top of a mountain behind the statue, flattening it.
The wizard's face suddenly turned gloomy.
At the same time, both statues began to shake and cracks began to appear.
The wizard looked at Locke and said, "What did you do?"
Locke said: "I just understood what the wizard was thinking at the time. If I need to get his spiritual blessing and integrate with his spirituality, then I need to consider what he thought at the beginning."
I don't think, In history, the wizard really shot an arrow at the statue of his mentor out of anger and destroyed the statue, but he did shoot an arrow in the direction of the statue, expressing his true respect for the truth and reasonable questioning of authority."
Locke looked at the "Mason Witch" and this strange wizard. "Shooting down the statue of my mentor, leaving only my own statue, what's the difference between that and not shooting. It's just a representative of authority, changing from the mentor to myself."
"The authority of others has become my own authority."
"And destroying one's own statue and leaving the statue of his mentor is tantamount to completely reducing himself to his mentor's vassal. If what I expected is correct, this wizard of the Dark Ages had a high status in that era. He was originally one of the authorities of this era... so he is qualified to be here." "The pursuit of the only correctness is itself a surrender to authority, which is just falling into the cycle of the past again and again. It will eventually lead to the advent of the dark age!"
At this time, both statues began to collapse.
The image of the Mason witch disappeared.
The strange wizard raised his lips, and at the same time, where the Mason Witch disappeared, a huge white dragon, the Holy Dragon, appeared. It was huge and had a dragon scale, which seemed to be a demi-plane.
That dragon has four claws, but the middle body is longer. It seems to be a true dragon variant, and its appearance is very different from that of an ordinary dragon.
The wizard said: "Locke Augustine, you are right."
The wizard and the dragon spoke at the same time. "Casio Drac is both a human and a divine dragon, and one of the authoritative scholars of the Dark Ages."
"Equivalent to the three-ring throne wizard of your era!"
"He was the first pioneer in past history to question the authority of the Dark Ages. But his ending was not good... As time goes by, history has swallowed up many things, and the history of Cassiodrac has also disappeared, and many wizards no longer understand him. But his spirituality still remains in the past time."
"In this case, I will admit you for the time being and let your arrows receive a hint of spiritual blessing from Cassiodrac."
h "The arrows will receive a hint of spiritual blessing from the sacred dragon."
Locke seems to have seen the moment in past history, in the dark ages, when the sacred dragon, which expressed people's intention to give up their mindless worship of authority, was finally exiled into a terrible dark realm by those wizards.
Locke's Book of Suzerains automatically appeared, and at the same time he began to absorb this historical material.
This is also a piece of historical data.
The negative energy particle field information contained in this part of spirituality is even very precious historical data. This precious historical material comes from the inheritance within the faction of the Golden Mian Mountain Academic Committee. It is something that the original dark wizard archaeologists would never be able to touch.
So although it exists objectively in this world, archaeologists have no access to it, so it is still regarded as dusty history.
No one can read it.
Today, as Locke inherited this magic, this period of history was recorded in the Book of Suzerains as an archaeologist.
