Lord Hunter needs a commission
Page 67
This is led by the chief mage of Winterhold, one of the few legendary mages in the Federation (probably only a few hundred, in other words, this can defeat the kingdom of God head-on, right?), and the only one in Skyrim Province. Information obtained by interrogating suspect Edward Kenway with a titled mage.
The so-called title refers to a person's code name and nickname, like Charlotte has the title of Pale Blood, but the origin of this title is not a good thing, and...
Skip this.
It is worth mentioning that the title of the chief mage, Aran, is the King of Fighters of Winterhold.
Yes, that's right, the title of a legendary mage is not some XX law saint or XX sage. Its full name is the chief legendary mage of Winterhold, the 'King of Fighters' Aran, and it is called the King of Fighters of Winterhold for short.
As for why there is such a title, well, Mr. Edward, who has suffered from the standard four-qi and ten-cut sleep♂ skill combo of this legendary mage with eight-pack abs, knows better than others.
This kind of legendary mage, who can be regarded as a big figure in the Federation, is naturally unlikely to lie about this matter. In other words, the information he inquired from Edward is basically reliable.
"So." Charlotte asked suspiciously at a small meeting attended by people related to the Sattar ruins in the office of the chief mage on the top floor of the tower of the academy. "What is the so-called Eye of Magnus, and...why do I have to attend this kind of meeting? I'm not interested in this ball."
"Now is not the time for you to be interested or not." Kallen, who was sitting on Charlotte's left, put one arm on the conference table, turned her face sideways, and said to Charlotte with a smile. "You have been called."
"Who recruited it?" Charlotte raised her eyebrows. "Why didn't I know that in this era, there is still a lord's mandatory conscription law?"
"The lord's mandatory conscription law is gone, but the conscription still exists." An Jie, who was sitting on the seat on the right, said without turning her head. "According to the special laws of the Federation, members of the Hunter's Guild can be recruited to assist when necessary. Don't forget that you also accepted the call when you were in Novigrad."
"Hehe, I forgot if you didn't tell me." Charlotte said. "In Novigrad, when I fought to the death, no 'reinforcement' appeared. Can you ask why?"
"Do you think a garrison of thousands of people can deal with a Balrog without heavy weapons?"
Anjie squinted at Charlotte, turning a deaf ear to the sarcasm in his tone.
"Or do you think that in a short period of time, the garrison can drag heavy weapons such as cannons and anti-aircraft guns to the urban area, shorten the reloading process by at least half an hour, and immediately target and fire, ignoring the civilians in the city?"
"Okay, you're right." Charlotte shrugged her shoulders and let this go.
As An Jie said, it is really difficult for the garrison of ordinary people to fight the demons they are dealing with without heavy firepower weapons.
In other words, it's a good thing these garrisons didn't really rush over, otherwise they wouldn't come to reinforce the army, but a group of second-handed teammates who would just give away their heads for nothing and drag themselves into the water.
Charlotte didn't forget that creatures like demons are born to devour souls. For demons and devils, souls are food, the 'material' that can make them stronger and recover from injuries.
"So what now?" Charlotte turned to look at An Jie. "Now is not the content of the agreement, you have no right to recruit a hunter at will."
"We can hire!" Karen said after taking the words.
"No." Charlotte said firmly. "Here I am, my work has been completed, and it can even be said to have been overfulfilled. My mission did not mention that not only do I have to fight a winter ghost, but I also have to deal with a group of terrorists and cultists. .”
Charlotte reached out and patted the table, saying loudly.
"It's hard to put it bluntly. As for the accident that happened during the archaeology, I'm already a good person among good people if I don't ask for additional fees."
"A winter ghost, a group of terrorist cultists, please, I am a hunter to earn money, not to be a hero, not a paladin who is so brain-dead that he won't get paid."
"Now that the task is over, I'm going back to pick up other jobs. I definitely won't stop here to be a volunteer just because of some special event." Complaining, Charlotte left the seat, stood up and prepared to leave here. "Leave the words here, I just..."
"Twenty thousand." Karen interrupted Charlotte's complaint. She raised her other hand, stretched out her index finger and middle finger, and said with a V gesture. "[-] gold dragons, I will pay them personally, as...a deposit in advance."
Charlotte trembled and stopped immediately.
Seeing Charlotte's appearance, Karen's smile became quite bright, and she quickly added another sentence.
"After the end, double this number and pay, a total of [-]."
Afterwards, Charlotte turned back with a calm face, pulled the chair away very naturally, and went back again, putting her hands on the conference table, and said with a serious and serious expression.
"Deal...by the way, what did I say just now, what is the use of the Eye of Magnus, and it is worth such a mobilization?"
Chief Mage: "..."
Professor Toldiff: "..."
Angie le Carré: "..."
Kallen: "Hehehehehehe, o(*≧▽≦)ツ."
In the speechless and awkward atmosphere of the others, only Karen's laughter sounded.
"Cough cough."
After a while, Tordiff coughed, breaking the awkward situation, and calming down Karen, who was laughing and leaning sideways on Charlotte.
In normal times, Karen would put her on her, and her whole body would almost lean on her. Charlotte would push her away in all likelihood, but... considering the [-] deposit and the follow-up [-] remuneration, Xia Luo Luo felt how wonderful this world is.
And Karen next to her is no longer the female pervert who has been 'peeping' at her all the time, but a mobile bank that exudes wealth all over her body.
By the way, Charlotte's deposit is not even a tenth of the [-] deposit.
At this moment, the gleaming wealth of the capital sank Charlotte's integrity, and made him abandon his integrity and adjust his lower limit regardless.
What a sad fact.
"...Let me start from the beginning."
Toldiff glanced at Charlotte, organized the word order and said.
"The Eye of Magnus is an artifact spread in various legends in the sky. It is said that it originated from a great mage named Magnus a long time ago."
Chapter 155 The Purpose of the Eye of Magnus
Eye of Magnus.
An artifact, a holy artifact, a magic artifact...or just an incredible magical item, its exact origin has long been unverifiable, but it is mentioned in some polytheistic religious books in the province of Skyrim that Magnus is One of the creator gods.
Let’s not talk about how many of them were born out of primitive religious obsession, how many of them were adapted by later generations in a flash of inspiration, and how many of them were made by Xia Jiba’s nonsense.
According to the classics left over from the primitive religions that were annihilated in the province of Skyrim, Magnus was the first god to respond to the creation of the mortal world. He created the material form of the mortal world, but because he was not satisfied with his creation, he thus Run away.
"This is actually religious obscenity."
After briefly introducing the background of the ball in the ruins of Sattar, Professor Toldif solemnly criticized the polytheism of the ancient Nords.
"Those Nord barbarians who had no brains and did not accept magic in the past summarized all incomprehensible things into myths, and imagined a series of gods and demons out of thin air."
"But the tragedy is that what they think in their brains that are so simple that only wine, food and mating are left, they finally created a few totems to believe in false gods, which in turn limped them."
"By the way, several of these false gods born out of imagination eventually became the vests of other righteous gods or demons."
"But why is it said that the creator of the Eye of Magnus is a mage?" Charlotte asked. "Instead of a false god born under primitive religious belief?"
"It's very simple, because Magnus is a mage, and he didn't become a false god because of the obscenity of the ancient Nords."
Tordiff replied.
"The so-called gods are nothing but spellcasters who have mastered the ultimate magic."
"In the view of the great arcanists of Netheril civilization, gods are nothing but powerful spellcasters." Charlotte nodded. "And then? What is the function of that ball?"
"Although the myths and legends are not very reliable, and most of them are the product of religious obsession, I have to say that the myths about Magnus circulating in the sky are not too exaggerated."
Tordiff said.
"The Eye of Magnus, perhaps you can simply call it the core instrument for geology and environment shaping of the artificial planet of the half-plane and the core of the artificial planet."
"Huh?" X3
At this moment, not only Charlotte, but even Karen and Anjie were surprised by Toldiff's words.
Charlotte rubbed her head and said. "Can you explain it in simpler words?"
"To put it simply, this thing is actually an instrument that can transform a barren half-plane into a planet from scratch, oh, it is an instrument that can upgrade a half-plane into a complete world." Tordiff explained. "Of course, it is impossible to create a complete world with a single ball. This thing is just the core part of a series of instruments, similar to the core of Mythra."
"However, Mythra's Core only raised a floating city, and according to calculations, the Eye of Magnus should raise a planet."
"You can think of it as the 8.0 ultimate version of Mythra's core, which has been strengthened hundreds of thousands of times, and it doesn't need a magic net. It is enough to generate energy that seems endless. After all, it is a man-made core. "
Speaking of this, Toldive stopped, then turned his head and discussed with the chief mage in a low voice for a while, before speaking to the three of them again.
"Theoretically, the release of a small amount of energy in the Eye of Magnus is enough to form a magical radiation that destroys the entire ecological circle of Skyrim Province...Although it is unlikely, if someone destroys it, it will The energy inside is all tilted out..."
"...Probably because a newborn sun was born on the ground."
A sun was born on the ground. This description is quite euphemistic. After hearing this, most people probably can't imagine what the process will be like.
But for the few people here, it is not difficult to imagine, like in magic, there is a spell that can create a shrunken miniature sun that rises to the sky to act as a super-sized light bulb.
Of course, if anyone flies near this oversized light bulb, the end will be the same as that of a moth to a flame.
Compared with ordinary people, the three of Charlotte's imaginations are much better. At least they can imagine the situation of a miniature sun falling on the ground.
Today's scientific education tells them that the so-called sun is neither a personified god nor a lighting tool created by a great being.
It is a super big fireball that is suspended outside their world and is very far away from their world, but because this big fireball is really too big, even if it is separated by a distance that is almost inaccessible, it can still be destroyed. Project an image onto the sky of this world.
The sunshine and temperature enjoyed by this world are actually only a small part of the light and heat naturally emitted by this super fireball.
As for the so-called Lord of Dawn, God of the Sun, Luoshan Dapeluo and the like, the gods with the priesthood of the sun... Hehe, they can only be called the gods of the sun at most, and they are still the gods of the sun on the surface, not the gods of the sun. god.
There is also the silver moon goddess Su Lun, in some legends, the myth of the sun was born because of her battle with her sister, the night goddess Shar, just listen to it as a story of obscenity.
Tell me, what kind of battle can ignite that terrible super fireball in the sky.
Anyone who still believes in anyone now is out of their minds.
"All kinds of artifacts in the history of the old age, such as the shattered magic crystal, the pale justice, and the magic palm of the Vecna eye, are worthless compared to the Eye of Magnus." Tordiff continued. "These so-called artifacts are nothing compared to the Eye of Magnus, which can shape the demiplane into a complete world, even if this ball is just one of a series of tools to shape the world."
"...I probably understand why someone came to grab this ball." Charlotte said. "But the question is why this ball can be activated."
"I think so too." Kallen sat up straight again, looking at Professor Toldiff and the chief mage with a serious expression. "According to the professor, this is definitely a magical creation beyond imagination. Compared with it, those famous artifacts are worthless, but why can it be activated and affected?"
"That's what worries us."
At this time, the chief mage Aran spoke.
"The state of the Eye of Magnus is very unstable, it is in a half-open and half-closed state, but our magic technology is far from its creator, so that we can't completely close it .”
"In this case, anyone, or a mage, can influence and activate it through magic, draw energy from it continuously, or be blown up by these energies."
Chapter 156 The Staff of Magnus
What situation in this world is the most helpless, so undoubtedly, a bomb with a half-broken safety catch is one of them.
If this bomb is still a mushroom bomb with great power, high yield, great mercy, and full of pacifist brilliance, then it is estimated that no one will feel that staying next to this kind of thing can sleep well.
Of course, in the world where Charlotte lives, the level of technology has not been raised to the level of pacifist glory like mushroom bombs... Well, no, it seems that it is not surprising that the legendary Master of Death accidentally clicked it out.
In short, Winterhold College, which has no experience in handling the Chernobyl incident, is now facing a very embarrassing situation.
The Eye of Magnus is worthy of being crowned as an artifact, and the legendary Magnus is also worthy of being listed as one of the creator gods in some polytheistic religious obsessions.
This fancy-looking and mysterious metal sphere, if it explodes, is estimated to be a natural disaster on the level of tearing the continental shelf at least. If it does not explode, it may cause magical radiation that spreads to the entire sky.
To be honest, right now, whether it is Aran, the chief mage of the College of Winterhold, or Professor Toldif, who leads the archaeological team, they are all sincerely surprised that this ball has been buried in the ground for many years, but it has not been blown up.
When in the ruins of Sattar, this metal ball was in a working state. For some reason, the winter ghost buried in Sattar inexplicably absorbed the magic power of the Eye of Magnus, and built a a force field.
All attacks cannot break through the force field on Winter Ghost's body, because the upper limit of attack does not exceed the upper limit of energy provided by the Eye of Magnus.
Then came the problem.
The winter ghosts, while listed as legendary and veritable mobile scourges on the ground, aren't actually smart.
Compared to a lich, a winter ghost is a second fool, and compared to a demigod mummy, a winter ghost is not even a second fool.
However, these two idiots are able to absorb the energy of the Eye of Magnus, and they have been hiding in the ground for an unknown number of years, thanks to the lack of brains of the winter ghost, otherwise, the winter ghost might not be the winter ghost if someone has a brain Yes, it is possible to super-evolve into the shadow of the void.
Even the shadow of the void is a legendary creature, but this legend and that legend are not of the same order of magnitude at all.
Therefore, the Eye of Magnus is a very difficult thing for Winterhold College.
Put it at home, and worry that it will blow up one day, and worry about whether there will be thieves thinking about it.
Throw it out, it doesn't matter before you change it, but after knowing that someone is watching this thing and watching it, it's hard to guarantee that it will be robbed by someone as soon as the front foot leaves Winterhold.
All in all, even if you can't keep it, you can't throw it out.
"If possible, I implore the Church of Destiny to send personnel to deal with the Eye of Magnus as soon as possible." Professor Tordiff suggested to Kallen. "We can't guarantee that those who peep at it will make the decision to take the risk of attacking the Academy of Winterhold."
"That's right, this time, not only the local terrorist organization Stormcloak, but also cults and terrorists such as the Druids, the Dark Brotherhood, and the Red-robed Mage have also come to get involved." Karen showed a troubled look on her face. .
In the old days, all the clubs and organizations mentioned above, without exception, were the kind of villain organizations that were not afraid of getting into trouble, had a big backstage, and could definitely afford a legendary module.
This means that there are big bosses among them.
The so-called masters, if you exclude all kinds of gods and demons, then they are all legendary masters.
As for the legendary kitchen knife professions, such as barbarians, warriors, etc.?
Legendary Mage: Excuse me, does such a thing called etc. exist in this world?
