Half Elf Ranger

Chapter 393 Our Era?
The red sun is setting in the west, the twilight is closing in, and the sky is gradually dimming.

In an almost primitive jungle.

Thorn's figure leaped between the trees, his speed was very fast, and he often passed by like a phantom in an instant.

"Clap!"

Suddenly, Thorne fell from the tree pole, stepped on dead branches and leaves, and stopped beside a shadow tree.

"It seems that no other ranger has been here during the time I've been away." Thorne confirmed by looking at the ranger mark on the tree trunk.

Half a year ago, when he took the sorceress Andrina and the old troll steward to Twilight Town to escape, he passed by here in search of a lich's lair.

It was the ranger mark on the tree trunk that reminded him that there was a lake spirit in a lake about one kilometer ahead, so he got her long hair by killing the lake spirit, which was exchanged for a lot of money from the plane merchant. gold.

And his goal of coming here today is to go to the lich's lair that he raided.

According to Horat's information, he learned that the plane merchant disappeared in the ruins of Yuanshan Town.

Within the ruins of Yuanshan Town, there was only one place to hide, the Lich's Lair, so he thought of it right away.

Then, as he rode the hippogriff, he suddenly remembered another thing that made him more sure that the plane merchant was hiding in the lich's lair.

When he stepped into the lich's lair for the first time, in addition to obtaining a purple silver cross pendant of excellent quality, he also got a book page made of unknown materials in the deepest part of the lair, which recorded about murder. What the church of God plans to fail.

He thought that the plane merchant should be hiding there.

As for why he hid in that kind of place to meet him, Thorne felt that when he found the plane merchant, the other party would definitely reveal some secrets for him that he didn't know.

If this kind of secret is known by some incomprehensible unknown beings, it will definitely cause big trouble.

In other words, this lich's lair should have some kind of ability to isolate the prophecy detection.

Of course, these are all his unilateral imagination. As for whether this is the case, we will only know after we meet.

Now, through the strange behavior of the plane businessman, he understood that this guy might also belong to an internal tester or a member of the God Killing Church.

Moreover, the planar merchants living in Twilight Town to provide assistance with various magical items to their compatriots from other worlds may also be doing it deliberately.

So, what is their real purpose?
Thorne believes that it is very likely that it is inseparable from the god-making plan.

As for the god-making plan, if you think about it on the bright side, it is to create a new god who can protect their compatriots from other worlds, and then protect them to take root in this world and form a new race.

If this is the case, this will be a very good plan for all compatriots.

But is it really as simple as imagined?

If he believed it, it would seem naive.

It was a god after all.

What does "God" represent?
Even a weak god has a powerful ability to kill and kill the Legend of Destiny in the main material world.

In the entire Toril universe, no mortal has ever succeeded in killing a god without the support of any god behind him.

Therefore, it is normal for the God Killing Church's God Killing Plan to fail.

Otherwise, they wouldn't think about changing the plan and carrying out the God-making plan.

However, if you think about it carefully, if their god-making plan is really successful, create a new god, and then rely on the abilities of their compatriots from other worlds, maybe they can really overthrow an old god system and replace it.

But it is almost impossible to become a god without a long-term plan or a strong backstage support.

Although he didn't know much about the so-called Conferring Gods, at least he knew that the moment a mortal performed the Conferred God Ceremony, it meant that he might become the enemy of the whole world.

If there is a conflict between the priesthood of the new god and the old god, I am afraid that the avatar will not be sent down directly to kill you while you are sick.

The competition for priesthood is even more tragic than the battle of orthodoxy. Without an extremely tragic fight, it is simply impossible to stabilize one's god position.

This is what is called the beginning of everything is difficult.

Thinking of this, Thorne seemed to have understood the ultimate purpose of these beta testers.

"I just don't know how much blood of my compatriots is needed to complete this road to conferring gods." Thorne glanced at the afterglow of the setting sun that had long since disappeared from the horizon, and couldn't help sighing.

Since the arrival of their player group is also part of the God Conferred Project, it means that they will definitely play a major role in the future.

As for the specific meaning of this so-called "function", even Thorne didn't dare to think about it any further. He could only pray in his heart that such a thing would never happen.

Before he knew it, Thorne had come to the lake where he had fought the lake spirit.

Looking at the slightly rippling water waves and many water birds playing on the lake, he didn't choose to disturb the beautiful scene, but walked along the lake in the direction of the lich's lair.

"Swish..."

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the bushes not far away, which caught Thorne's attention.

As he cast his gaze over, a black wild boar came out of the bushes, grunted and ran to his feet with a dirty head on his trouser leg. Up and down.

"It turned out to be you. It seems that this plane merchant is well prepared. If I choose to settle in the ruins of Yuanshan Town, he probably has other ways to guide me here." Thorn knelt down and stroked The head of the wild boar looked towards the place where the lich's lair was.

He could still recognize this little wild boar. It was a small animal injured by a skeleton that he rescued when he passed by the Blue Leaf Forest.

If he doesn't choose to help, it will directly become the dinner of the old troll butler.

Because of this, he noticed that there might be a lich's lair somewhere in the little wild boar's injury.

This little wild boar seemed to be controlled by some kind of force, and he used his eyes to signal him to follow it in a humane manner.

So Thorne followed him all the way, and as expected, he was brought to the secret cave of the lich's lair.

Seeing the little wild boar disappear into the bushes again, Thorne carefully checked the surroundings, and after confirming that there was no danger, he went in directly.

Going all the way in the dark cave, he came to the deepest part unimpeded, which is where he found the mysterious page.

Just like last time, the room was littered with upside-down stone bookshelves.

Right in front of it was a pure black marble table, many bits and pieces of things placed on it had been cleaned up long ago, and a thin old man with a white beard dragged to his knees was also sitting on the stone bench next to him. The planar trader to look for.

"Hello." Seeing the skinny old man looking at himself with interest, Thorne, who felt uncomfortable, broke the silence first and greeted.

"Take it out." The thin old man sitting on the stone bench looked at Thorne and said with a smile on his wrinkled old face.

Thorne didn't hesitate, and directly threw the quaint round coin with a square hole that Malvisa gave him.

"Buzz!"

Just when the coin was about to fall in front of the skinny old man, a magic aura suddenly flashed, and then it floated in midair strangely.

Seeing this situation, the thin old man immediately suppressed his smile, got up from the stone bench, and looked at the coins with a serious face.

I saw his arms covered by the wide sleeves slowly stretched out, made a gesture of hugging, then gently closed them and crossed them against his chest, leaned slightly to salute, and said solemnly to himself:

"Our time will come when:
The leaves fall, the buds wither,
The fruit rots, the seed is bitter,
The river dried up, the earth cracked,
The gods fall, and all things return to dust. "
