Arcane Journey

Chapter 28 Miser Nuclear
Long ago on the world of Toril the great arcane empire of Netheril was at its height.

A level 35 Psychic Arcanist, Miss Polaris, was buried in a floating mausoleum.

After the fall of the Netheril Empire and countless floating cities, Blaise's floating tomb fell from a crack into the Underdark, where it remained silent for dozens of centuries.

It wasn't until a certain crazy drow wizard used the energy radiated from the leylines to complete the summoning of the abyss that by some kind of coincidence, the dead great arcanist Bryces awakened from eternity and became a With evil spirits.

Her servants and slaves who were buried with her also turned into ghosts to wait around.

Hearing the ethereal and ethereal voice, Brian recalled some information about this floating mausoleum.

The first time this mausoleum appeared was three years after their player group came to the game world.

At that time, Rose, the queen of spider gods, was about to fall into a short slumber, and the spider wizard was also preparing for his own abyss summoning technique.

Bryan thought that the owner of the tomb was awakened by the residual resentment when the abyss summoning technique was cast, which caused the surging energy of the earth's veins to spurt out, and turned into an evil spirit, which was finally discovered by an adventurer by accident.

Therefore, logically speaking, this mausoleum should be a dead and silent ruin before the spider wizard cast the abyss summoning technique, and it is impossible for such a strange voice of prayer to appear.

After all, the other party was a level 35 arcanist before she was alive. When she was buried, she must have considered this situation, and naturally her body would not be defiled by ordinary negative energy.

Who would have thought that as soon as he stepped into this place, he immediately received a voice transmission from the other party begging him to help her.

Could it be that the abyss summoning technique of the spider wizard is not completed in an instant, but has been accumulating the energy radiated from the leylines, and when the energy reaches a certain critical point, it forcibly drags a group of abyss lords' incarnations into the dark area.

Brian thoughtfully observed the colorful lights in the cave.

As his energy was highly concentrated, he vaguely felt some ancient and chaotic radiant energy flowing in the air.

Immediately afterwards, he observed some looming spiral textures on the wall in detail.

Brian withdrew his gaze with a heavy expression, he had already confirmed the inference in his heart.

Because this weird spiral texture is produced by energy distortion when the concentration of radiation in the veins reaches a certain level.

This also means that the owner of the tomb was indeed awakened by the energy radiated from the leylines.

"Please. Please help me, save me, please." The soft female voice echoed in Brian's mind again.

He didn't respond, but fell into deep thought.

Because after he confirmed his thoughts, he suddenly hesitated again.

At the beginning, when the adventurers discovered the tomb and started exploring, many people died one after another. It was not until a team of clergymen who believed in the Lord of Dawn arrived that the place was completely purified.

Obvious.

The root cause of all this is that there is a big boss that is quite difficult to challenge hidden inside.

As for his own safety, for Brian, who has always been cautious in doing things, he must first consider the situation clearly before deciding whether to go in.

It is said that the reason why the evil spirits in the mausoleum lure adventurers is mainly because they need to collect enough vitality to strengthen their own strength, and then get rid of the shackles of the mausoleum and themselves.

Brian recalled this rumor, and thought that it would be about five years before the tomb was discovered.

In other words, the evil spirit should be in the initial awakening stage, and its strength cannot be the same as it will be five years later.

Trying to understand the problem, he immediately realized that this was a risk worth taking.

After all, in this mausoleum, in addition to getting a piece of legendary equipment and a Nether scroll, he may even find the core that supported the mausoleum's floating: Mither energy core!

Even a failed 'Misser Energy Core' is a precious item with considerable research value for Brian.

If he can decipher the operating principle of the 'Misser Energy Core' and return to the surface to build the wizard tower, the energy problem that caused him the most headache will be directly solved.

"How should I save you?" Brian concentrated his thoughts, responding to the female voice's call from the bottom of his heart.

"Huh? Thank you for your help!"

The soft female voice said a little excitedly, "Please go to the left, be careful, I will guide you to the entrance of the mausoleum."

Brian nodded slightly, and walked cautiously in the bright cave according to the hint in his mind.

Soon, he found a narrow passage among the staggered stalactites and stalagmites.

I have to admit that the entrance to the mausoleum is very hidden. Without the guidance of outsiders, Brian really can't guarantee that he will be able to find it.

No wonder it was able to hide for dozens of centuries, and it was not until the vengeful spirit with evil thoughts and illusions slowly surfaced.

He followed a winding path to a dirty marble wall with an ancient stone door encased in greenish bronze deeply embedded in it.

It can be seen from this that this is the entrance to the mausoleum.

Under the scouring of the years, the entire mausoleum has completely merged with the cracks in the Underdark.

Bryan tried his best to turn the stone gate from the central axis with difficulty.

He couldn't help but secretly rejoiced that his pair of wrist guards had an extra point of strength.

Otherwise, he might not be able to push the door open, so he could only use the summoned creatures to help him break the door.

As the bronze door was opened, a deep and dark corridor appeared before his eyes.

Just as he thought, there is no negative energy in it, but a more intense earth vein radiation energy.

——"Light Art!"

With a thought in Brian's mind, the soft white light dispelled the surrounding darkness, clearly presenting the murals on both sides of the corridor.

He looked at the mural on the right with great interest.

Possessing a keen sense of magic, he could clearly feel that these paintings were perfectly preserved to this day by some constant magical power.

It depicts a beautiful, charming, smiling young woman dressed in the aristocratic attire of Netheril's heyday, undoubtedly Blaise the Lady of the North Star.

The great arcanist was adorned with all kinds of magical ornaments of wealth and power, and surrounded by many servants and slaves.

On the left side of the corridor, there is a picture depicting the magnificent vistas of several floating cities.

He didn't stay too long, and went straight through the entrance, along a straight downward staircase, to a stone room about 100 feet deep from the mausoleum hall.

With the blessing of the light technique, Brian found that the stone room was empty, except for a delicate off-white marble altar standing against the wall, there were only tapestries hanging on both sides.

The tapestry depicts the forests, lakes and grasslands of the Ennook Desert thousands of years ago, as well as the rising floating cities.

Brian didn't pay too much attention to the tapestry, just glanced at it casually, and immediately set his sights on the marble altar: an ornate ceremonial bracket composed of many golden rings.

Placed on it is a dull crystal ball with a diameter of about 1 foot (33cm). The surface is covered with dust, and there are some dark shadows wandering from time to time.

Misser can nuclear!

Brian guessed the identity of this magical item through the arcane runes engraved on the pedestal.

Then, with a whisper, a detected magical aura burst out from the fingertips, instantly covering the dim crystal ball.

Immediately afterwards, the crystal ball fixed on the gorgeous pedestal trembled slightly.

As the dust covering the surface was gently shaken off, the smooth crystal suddenly emitted a dazzling aura.

Then in the blink of an eye, it suddenly converged and became unpretentious.

This is the dazzling aura of legendary quality.

Seeing this, Brian looked relieved.

Because as long as it emits a magical aura, it proves that the magic item has not been damaged. At most, it has lost its original function due to the restriction of the goddess of magic.

With a thought, the dim crystal ball, under the effect of telekinesis, left the pedestal, rose slowly, floated in front of him, and fell into the palm that just opened.

Misser Energy Core (Expired)

Type: Wonder

Quality: Golden·Legendary

(Explanation: In the era when the inner magic net was not closed by the goddess of magic, the main function of the Mithr energy core was to connect the innermost layer of the magic net, extract the original magic energy, and cover the entire city with this energy, providing Netherese Er's archarcanists provide a steady stream of magical energy, allowing them to suspend their cities in the sky, or create quasi-magic items, without the need to consume constitution and cast constant magic.)
effect:

1. When the operator is on the same plane as the Miser Energy Core, he can freely control it and let it fly in any direction he chooses.

Note: Everything within 500 feet of the mythar core is moved with it.If the Miser energy core does not move anymore, it will be suspended in the air together with everything around it.

2. The controller can instantly restore any quasi-magic items within 30 feet of the Miser's core to the consumed charges or usage times.

Note: Only when the quasi-magic item is within the range of influence of the Mither core can the magical power originally instilled be used.Outside the range, the quasi-magical item loses its effect and becomes a non-magical item.

3. The controller can use the power of Miser's core to release the spell of manipulating the weather, which does not require any magic components and does not need to be outdoors.The spell's casting range has been changed to a radius of 25 kilometers.

Note: When casting weather-manipulating spells, the caster must remain within 30 feet of the Mithr core, otherwise the spell will fail.

(Warning: Touching the Mither Core is a fatal act. Anyone who touches the device will be killed instantly. Any object, including magic items, touching it, except the pedestal, will be dissociated immediately. Anyone who touches the Mither Nuclear undead are instantly destroyed.)
