Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 275 The Principle of Magical Prayer
Memory battlefield, under the starry sky.

Lucia sat at the end of the long table made of spiritual energy, staring at the writing on the parchment in front of her, putting down the quill in her hand, and exhaled softly.

A reply letter to the Queen of the Full Moon has been sent. The letter details the training plan for the giant wolf knights of Kallia and the help the Ancient Dragon Dynasty needs in the development of Gmir.

After leaving Lani, he immediately entered the memory battlefield, using the highly enhanced mental power and slowing down the flow of time a hundred times to start deducing the next action.

Seal the corruption curse on Malenia is undoubtedly the top priority in the following period. During the time that Michaela left the royal capital, she gained a lot of insights during her travels, and the construction of a new law went quite smoothly.

Lucia may see this more intuitively than Michaela herself - in the data panel of the memory battlefield, the unlocking progress of Michaela's legendary ability "Pure Gold Holy Law" has been advanced to 92.6%, and there will be new ones every day breakthrough.

As long as there are no accidents in the future, the pure gold law will definitely be completed before Malenia's curse breaks out. Although Michaela's law cannot be perfect without a destined death, in Lucia There should be no problem in simply "sealing" the corruption curse with the help of Lani.

Lucia also thought about using the ray of destiny that she controlled to help Michaela complete the law, but the destiny of Samuel, the god-skin noble, was only a small part of the power projection of Queen Nighteye. After the queen's fateful death was disqualified, this power of death lost its legal power and could only be used as one of his trump cards to enhance the power of his moves.

Therefore, if you want to truly die by destiny, you must either look for the missing Queen of Death and see if this boss has any hidden methods left over a hundred years ago, or you must visit the Galede Beast Temple to find destiny. The current leader of the death of "Black Sword" Malikis - but neither of these two avenues is currently within his ability to get involved.

"I hope Michaela can withstand it this time," he sighed softly.

It stands to reason that even if he is introduced into the world as a variable, it should not have much impact on Michaela's sealing of the corruption curse. To say the least, Se Lian's soul migration technology and artificial pyroxene body have also been initially completed. He at least Can find a final escape route for Marlenia.

It is worth mentioning that since they left Rodel, Queen Malika wrote twice asking about Marlenia's situation. Instead, she turned a blind eye to the Magic Conference and left it to Lucia. Radagan, who should have shown more attention to his children, fell into silence, and no news came from him for half a year.

Compared with Radagon's behavior of specially preparing gifts for Queen Lenara before setting off, and asking his second son Rakad to deliver them, the recent indifference of the King of Elden seems a bit strange.

Lucia couldn't help but remember that when Marlenia's illness first broke out three years ago on the shores of Lake Rodel, Radagon also disappeared for an entire night without any reason.

Obviously, for Radagon now, there are many things that are much more important than Marlenia's condition.

From this point of view, if Queen Malika is trying to suppress the process of divinity replacing humanity, then Radagon is exactly the opposite. It seems that divinity is his unchanging tone. Only on a few occasions by chance, the statue is almost Only a perfect statue of God will crack a crack, revealing a glimmer of humanity.

Lucia picked up the quill again and drew two horizontal lines under this matter. A cold look flashed across her ice-blue pupils.

Michaela's pure gold law is not the method to eradicate the corruption curse in his mind. He only hopes that Marlenia will be strong enough. As long as she can survive decades like the original timeline, he You will definitely find a way to kill the gods.

Killing the God of Corruption is the ultimate solution to fundamentally eliminate all hidden dangers.

Thinking about this, his eyes continued to move downward, skipping the detailed response plans for the academy, the northern border, Gmel, the Far Eastern Islands and other places that had been sorted out, and fell on the last matter. The development of the legendary ability "Dragon Language Magic".

During the previous battle with Yug, this mysterious ability that had been secreted for many years suddenly unlocked itself after injecting an excessive amount of magic power. Without Lucia doing any research on it, the power of just randomly stimulating it far exceeded that of All magic including origin magic.

The level of Yog's magic power in the form of a star beast is undoubtedly approaching that of his teachers Azler and Luset. The spell released at the last moment is a killing technique composed of gravity magic, creation star rain and Esti meteorite.

However, a spell of this level is almost vulnerable to dragon language magic.

In terms of power alone, the golden beam of light that finally defeated Yog has surpassed the Claw of Destruction with the added fatality of destiny, and has become Lucia's most lethal move at present.

However, as she explored dragon language magic in the following period, Lucia discovered that this power bestowed on her mother Heraris was extremely special. Just like its unusual power, its principle of action was also completely different from that in the border area. Any known power system.

The two major branches of the border magic system - magic and prayer - appear to be very different on the surface. However, according to the theory of the origin of magic prayer in Topps research, these two magic types are completely interoperable in terms of underlying principles. .

The three elements of magic are the magic power as the basis, the spells that guide the movement of magic power, and the medium that ultimately releases magic.

There are many types of media. Most mages use their wands and chanting spells to achieve the "trigger" effect. High-level mages can abandon their wands or spells and use one of them to trigger magic alone. And those rare top mages even more Able to master so-called "super magic skills" that are beyond the scope of conventional magic, such as silent, instant, and continuous magic. With his profound control of magic and spells, he can bypass the triggering link in the general sense and jump directly to the "result" of releasing magic. ".

The same is true for prayer. Divine power corresponds to magic power, divine runes correspond to magic spells, and holy seals and prayers correspond to wands and spells. Therefore, prayer is also called divine magic, and it seems to be the result of a complete correspondence with magic.

The only difference is that the magic prayer adds a "door" during its operation, which is a devout belief in the god corresponding to the magic. Only those with pure enough faith can unlock the door and borrow the words belonging to the god from behind the door. of great power.

According to Lucia's observation, although the god systems in the border areas vary greatly, they are highly unified in this regard. The prayer users in reality are not like the faded ones in the previous life, who can release magic as much as they want with just a mark. Lacking corresponding beliefs, the casters often cannot even use the most basic prayers.

For example, the Golden Churches throughout the Golden Dynasty, especially the new churches that believe in legal fundamentalism, will purge a group of priests and knights who are said to have "not strong enough beliefs" every year, many of whom were originally ranked in the church system. or even higher-order existences.

Since the day they were excommunicated, these priests and knights have lost the qualification to use any form of divine magic. Even if they can still sense the existence of divine power in their bodies, the divine power is like a frozen lake and will never respond again. The call of the master.

Because of this, in the current mainstream view in the border areas, prayer is still understood as a completely different existence from magic. The latter may be the product of human beings understanding and controlling natural energy, but the former can only be sent down by gods. If you want to grasp the grace of heaven, there is no other way but to worship and pray.

Lucia is still unable to understand the underlying truth behind the conflict between these two theories, but this does not prevent him from realizing the special nature of dragon language magic——

What is completely different from the first two is that Dragon Language Magic directly abandons the intermediate structure of "spells" or "runes", takes magic as the "starting point", and leaps to the "end" of magic in one step!
