Chapter 20 When It Was Buried
After pausing, the eldest prince sighed and said, "But it's not surprising. If you stay in the outer realm for so long and can survive, you will become a legend."
"Why did all the wealthy families choose His Majesty instead of Princess Wuding? His Majesty has stronger potential." Richard asked another key question,
The Iron Blood Lord recalled the past, smiled bitterly, and said, "No, it's because everyone is afraid of Princess Wuding."
"Fear."
"In those days, looking at the entire human race, Princess Wuding was one of the best geniuses. She didn't need to temper her strength at all. She began to understand the rules during the Holy Realm period. There was more than one record of killing legends on the battlefield of the Evil Realm. The levels and bottlenecks that plague us seemed to not exist in her. However, Princess Wuding was also an absolute madman. She was moody and her only hobby was to destroy life and destroy any life. No matter what kind of problem she encountered, her way to solve the problem was to kill. What she often said at that time was to kill both parties who were quarreling, and then no one would quarrel."
Richard was silent. Indeed, if such a woman was placed on the throne, it would definitely be a disaster for the entire Holy Alliance. However, such a woman finally chose to obey the rules. I don't know what happened in the depths of that plane.
After Wuding went to the Outer Region, a group of wealthy families, even the royal family, seemed to completely get rid of her shadow, chose to destroy all traces of her past, including records, emblems and documents. Since then, Princess Wuding has lived only in the memories of a group of old people. In people's hearts, she should have gone and returned to the Outer Region.
Unexpectedly, decades have passed, but at this time, the fearful eldest princess suddenly came back, which is a bit too coincidental. For politics, the synonym for coincidence is conspiracy, but Richard could hardly imagine that the eldest princess and Zhuiliu would be equated with meticulous conspiracy.
Richard and the Iron Blood Duke chatted a few more casually, then left the Grand Duke's floating island and hurried to the Royal Mage Association of Ukiyoshi. In the mage association, there is the largest and most complete library of Ukiyoshi. Thor is definitely not the strongest among legendary wizards, but in terms of knowledge, there are not many legendary wizards with richer knowledge than him.
When he saw Thor, the old man from the optimist school also brought two thick dark circles with his eyes, looking very worried. When he saw Richard, he forced a smile and spread his hands and said, "My old man has been squeezed out by your magical armed forces."
Richard smiled and said, "Your joke is not funny at all. I am not here to sell the structure, but to look for a few books in the library."
"What kind of book?" Thor asked, waved his hand to attract a young mage and asked him to take Richard to the library of the Mage Society.
"There is information about the outside world, the more the better."
"Outerland," Thor was startled and immediately asked the mage to leave, then stared at Richard and asked, "It's related to Princess Wuding."
"I just want to know more about her. There is almost no information about her now. I think there should be many opportunities to deal with this eldest princess in the future."
Thor glanced at Richard and said, "Come with me, I have a book about the foreign land, which explains it in great detail."
Richard followed Thor into his half plane. Thor set up a magic barrier to completely isolate the half plane from Norland, and then said: "Richard, are you planning to stop His Highness Wuding?"
Richard smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know His Highness Wuding at all, so how can I stop him? What's more, the succession of the throne has nothing to do with Archmond. I'm not a duke."
Thor took Richard to a three-story building deep in the half-plane, and flipped out a heavy book from a dusty box and stuffed it to Richard, "Take it, it's very detailed in the foreign land. You can take it back and read it slowly, but remember to return it to me. This book itself is much more precious than the content. It was written by a famous wizard."
Before Richard was about to leave, Thor called him and said, "Richard, no matter what, His Highness Wuding has the blood of the royal family flowing on his body. He is a member of our Holy Alliance. Perhaps only she can resolve some of the crises in front of him and take into account the overall situation."
Thor said this vaguely. Richard wanted to ask more details, but he refused to say more. However, the last sentence had already expressed the position that Thor might have.
When Richard left, light and shadow flashed beside him. The old mage who had taken action to snatch the Blue Moon appeared beside Thor, looking at the direction of Richard's departure with complicated eyes, sighing: "The breath of the Blue Moon is almost integrated with him. If you don't pay attention, it is hard to find it. It seems that the crescent moon was indeed gone for him, alas."
Thor nodded and said, "It seems that the Blue Moon has indeed merged with his bloodline. Don't make any more decisions. That little guy is very murderous and not easy to mess with. If you don't see Zhuiliu provoking him, you will almost be killed by the sacrificial."
The old master sighed again and said reluctantly: "The moon power of the blue moon is very important to me, but...ah, okay, I have nothing to do in Norland anymore. In two days, I will be ready to set off and take a look at the group of semi-planes I discovered last time."
Thor frowned and said, "But now the legion fortress needs legendary power to guard it. You are good at fighting, so don't you think about it again?"
The old master smiled and said, "The little thing that the alliance took out is not in my eyes. If you want me to work hard for you, you must bring out some good things."
Thor said: "But you are also a member of the Holy Alliance. Now is a critical moment, how can you let it go?"
The old mage smiled and said, "Thor, don't use this kind of rhetoric to me. Since it is a critical moment, why don't you go to the Legion Fortress? Are you not a legendary mage?"
Thor's face was flushed and said angrily: "But I've been doing research and I'm not good at fighting."
The old mage said calmly: "But you are also a legendary mage. No matter what, you will not lose to a great mage."
"You." Thor was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"If you want to fool people to go to the garrison fortress, you can get more benefits. The price you pay is only a few great magicians. Thor, the legendary wizard is not that cheap." The old wizard said calmly,
Thor waved his arm hard and said angrily: "But you are also a member of the Holy Alliance, how can you do this?"
The old mage said lightly: "It's not that you don't know my bloodline and age. When I was born, there was no Holy Alliance. The Holy Alliance is just a unity, a code name, not a name with a holy prefix. It's really sacred. The Holy Alliance hasn't given me anything, so why do you want me to fight for it life and death? I said, it's not impossible to want me to guard the Legion Fortress, and take out enough sacrifices, otherwise there are not many fools like Longdested. Finally, Thor, for the sake of friends for almost a hundred years, I will just pretend that you haven't said those words just now. Just like that, I guess we won't have a chance to meet again in the future."
The old mage directly opened a space portal, stepped in, disappeared in an instant, leaving Thor spontaneously angry in the original place,
Richard returned to the floating island and immediately walked into the study and began to study the information he got from Thor.
The outer realm is actually a collective name for a series of planes. No one can tell how many planes there are in that extremely vast world. There is a region where chaos occupies absolutely dominance. Eternity and the brilliance of the dragon of time cannot shine there. In the outer realm, there are messy and upside-down worlds everywhere. The powerful races that could sweep through several planes at the last moment may suddenly become extinct in the next moment.
The environment in the outer realm is worse than the abyss and hell. Whether it is the abyss or hell, the plane environment is very stable, but the outer realm is an extremely violent and disorderly world. No one knows what will happen next moment. Every moment, new planes are born, existing plane distortions, and plane annihilation.
In the history of Noland, when he just discovered the Outerland, a group of strong men went there to explore, but they were not prepared enough and almost wiped out. After a period of time, the Outerland became an area where the Noland wizards sealed powerful creatures that were difficult to kill. Some strong men who committed serious crimes would also be exiled there.
It was not until hundreds of years later that several legendary wizards explored some basic rules of the foreign domain, which became a relatively stable area with Norland. However, the power of chaos dominated, making the laws of Eternal and Dragon of Time unavailable in the foreign domain. That is to say, many of the gods obtained from the Eternal Dragon Palace cannot produce effects, and those that can take effect will often be greatly reduced. Therefore, for the powerful Norland who are accustomed to enjoying the various bonus effects brought by sacrifice, the power will be greatly suppressed, so this area seems particularly dangerous.
Seeing this, Richard understood a little why the turbid current became the opposition between eternity and the Dragon of Time. There was no place in this world that could completely break away from the law and exist. Although the outer realm was twisted and violent and unpredictable, it obviously followed the chaotic law. Therefore, only by becoming a servant of the chaotic law can we better adapt to the harsh and cruel environment of the outer realm. For the turbid current that was just an ordinary holy realm at that time, survival was the first priority to consider.
However, after reading the entire material, Richard had a new idea. He found that Princess Wuding was not necessarily the opposition between Eternal and the Dragon of Time. Even a legendary powerful man, if he stayed in the ever-changing outer realm for a long time, he would have the risk of falling. He often had to surrender to the law of chaos, so that he could no longer be suppressed by the environment in the crisis-ridden outer realm, and he could even borrow some of the power of nature.
