Chapter 246 The Ceremony of the Crown of Wisdom, the inheritance of the eleven-ring spell!
The ancient crown was placed on Deya's head.
Deya closed his eyes, stood in the center of the ceremony, immersed himself in it, and then completely emptied his body and mind.
Seeing this, Irvin nodded slightly. He took a step back and looked at the masters of the towers in the other three directions.
"Get ready to start!"
Irving said in his hoarse and unpleasant voice.
Adolf, the master of the Purple Tower, who was wearing a purple wizard robe and always looked lively and cheerful, like an old naughty boy, glanced at his old friend and said:
"Irwin, it may be one or two hundred years before I see you again. I feel a little disappointed when I think about not being able to see you for 200 years."
Adolf's feelings towards his best friend and worst friend were indescribably complicated, and he was filled with emotion.
Irving chuckled and said, "Adolf, you should think about yourself. I'm afraid that when I revive again in 200 years, you will have died and I will never see you again."
Adolf's voice choked. He was indeed not young anymore. 200 years later would really be close to the upper limit of his life span.
He waved his hand in disdain and said, "Hurry up, Irwin, I don't want to see you now!"
Irving laughed a cheerful cackle.
His empty eyes looked at Deya again, then he took a few steps back, came to his own position, and began to recite the inherited spell.
The other three tower masters also had stern expressions and recited spells at the same time.
The function of this spell is to activate the magical effect of the Nine Rings Tower itself, and the huge magic power accumulated for hundreds of years began to surge like a tide.
The terrifying attributeless magic power poured into the sky city from the four high towers, and then followed the "pipelines" in the sky city to the ceremony hall.
The mages in the Nine Rings Tower looked at this huge energy riot in amazement and asked each other:
"What's going on? What kind of ritual are the tower masters performing?"
"The tower masters didn't tell us in advance. It's probably some secret magic rituals that only the tower masters know. Didn't you see that those towers came alive?"
The mages looked at four of the tall towers. After receiving a huge infusion of magic power, the four towers were completely activated.
They seemed to have turned into a huge constructed life form. The four tall towers began to move, and with the movement of these four tall towers, the internal structure of the entire sky city also changed accordingly.
The entire sky city does not have a fixed form. It is more like a group of modules. No matter how it changes, just like a Rubik's Cube, the overall shape remains unchanged, but the internal structure will change.
Many mages in the Nine Rings Tower saw this scene for the first time and were surprised: "No wonder the entire Sky City looks so irregular. Except for the tower in the center, the other eight towers are also asymmetrical. It turns out that these towers are alive and can change their positions by themselves. I'm afraid they are weapons of war."
"Damn it, doesn't this mean I have to record the map again? This city is really too big, and it took me a long time to memorize the routes before."
"As a wizard, how are you going to learn spells if you can't even remember the way?"
"What does it matter? I'm just born with a poor sense of direction!"
"..."
The mages in the tower were discussing what kind of ritual the tower masters were performing.
But they could roughly guess that this should be related to the mother of all living things on earth.
The mages here, whether they witnessed it with their own eyes or through spells, all witnessed the power of the Mother of All Living Things and the horror of those insect swarms.
Although the Nine-Ring Tower stands high in the sky, it will not be swallowed by the insect swarm in a short period of time.
But with the speed at which the swarm is expanding, if no one stops it, even the Nine-Ring Tower will collapse completely and become food for the swarm.
Now the tower masters seem to have found a way to fight against the Mother of All Living Things, which makes the mages of Jiuhua Tower feel relieved.
At the ceremony, Deya put on the inherited crown, the "forbidden treasure" that had been preserved in the Nine Rings Tower. Under the spell of the ceremony, the function of the crown of wisdom was fully activated.
An extremely complex spell model suddenly appeared in the deepest part of Deya's mind.
Just as Deya was trying to understand the meaning of this complex model, the entire model suddenly collapsed, as if it had been scattered into pieces, turning into countless small models.
Immediately afterwards, Deya found that his consciousness seemed to have come to the classroom, and an old wizard appeared in front of him.
Although Deya had never met the other party, he somehow knew that this old wizard was the first holder of the Crown of Wisdom, and the Nine Rings Tower's research on gods, which had lasted for thousands of years, also began at this time.
The old wizard spoke, and he started with the simplest spell model, which could only be considered the basic model of a spell trick.
As every word and every sentence he said entered Deya's brain, Deya instantly understood the meaning of the model.
Deya immediately understood that this was the function of the Crown of Wisdom. It not only passed on knowledge, but also enabled you to understand this knowledge!
When the old wizard finished his explanation, the model of the spell trick had turned into a nine-ring spell.
This is the research result of the first generation of wizards. They made a beginning and created this spell that can make even gods fall!
The old wizard's figure gradually disappeared, and the second wizard appeared in front of Deya.
He should be the second holder of the Crown of Wisdom.
He continued to explain the knowledge of spell models to Deya, and as he explained, the previous models became more complicated than before.
However, unlike the first wizard, this explanation did not bring about any qualitative changes to the spell model. After all, it is extremely difficult to turn a nine-ring spell into a ten-ring spell.
In this way, several generations passed, and the magic model gradually transcended the scope of the nine rings.
It was not until the tenth generation that the complex spell model finally took shape again, indicating that this nine-ring spell had become a ten-ring spell, surpassing the theoretical upper limit of spells in this world!
At this point, the creation of spells has become difficult, and the mages in the Nine-Ring Tower have already classified the gods as eleven-ring creatures.
However, to create a spell that is equal to that of a god is something that no mortal can do.
But if one mortal cannot do it, then countless mortals at the top will pass it on through inheritance.
This spirit of Yugong moving mountains makes the wizards of the Nine Rings Tower believe that one day they will be able to create magic that can make the gods fall!
I don't know how many generations have passed like this, but every wizard who explained to Deya could only bring about slight changes to the spell model.
But no matter how small the change is, it is still a change. When quantitative change reaches qualitative change, and when small amounts accumulate to large amounts, finally, this ten-ring spell reaches the eleventh-ring realm!
The last person to explain to Deya was his teacher, Master Irwin.
The fleshless lich handed the last key to Deya in his hoarse and unpleasant voice. When Irwin finished his explanation, the spell model in front of him finally reached the eleventh ring equal to that of a god!
It was Irving who completed the final step in building this spell model.
It's not that Irwin is smarter or more talented than all the previous wizards. This eleven-ring spell was created by the best wizards in the Nine-Ring Tower over a period of five thousand years.
But it is still not enough. Being equal to God does not mean that this spell can make God fall. If you want to really make God fall, you need to create a twelve-ring spell that transcends the meaning of God's existence!
This is the last step of the Nine Ring Tower's 5000-year plan, and also the most difficult step.
'No wonder the teacher doesn't have enough confidence.'
"It took about 1,500 years for this spell to go from the ninth ring to the tenth ring, and nearly 3,500 years for it to go from the tenth ring to the eleventh ring."
"If it continues to develop at this rate, it will probably take another 5000 years to fully perfect it, or even longer."
In the Sea of Inheritance of the Crown of Wisdom, Deya stared at the spell model in front of him that had completely become three-dimensional, almost turning from illusion into reality, and he murmured in his heart.
However, for the Nine Rings Tower, this should not be a big deal. As long as they can be sure that this thing can be successful, then the mages can wait willingly no matter whether it takes 5000 years or 5 years.
A wizard's study of magic is inherently a dull, uninteresting and lonely process.
But in this process, the mage gains the joy brought by knowledge, which far exceeds any other entertainment activities.
The only thing that was beyond the Nine Rings Tower’s expectations was the appearance of the Mother of All Living Things.
Deya calmed his mind at this time, and began to observe the model carefully in his sea of consciousness. His brain was working frantically, trying to create something new on this model.
He did not need to understand this 11th-level spell, because with the help of the Crown of Wisdom, he knew every detail of this spell, and he could even use this 11th-level spell directly if he wanted.
But it's useless. Although such spells can cause harm to gods, they cannot bring them down. So it's meaningless.
Deya's entire mind was immersed in the creation of magic.
Sudden--
[You have studied the 11th level spell "XXX", skill experience +1]
When such information appeared on Deya's panel, he was overjoyed!
Yes, I can study spells through the cheat codes on the panel.
No matter how long the research takes, no matter how slowly the experience points increase, as long as you keep working hard, you will succeed.
The reason why the spell is called "XXX" is because it has never been named by any wizard since it was created.
All the mages agreed that whoever finally perfected it would be the last one to sign it.
In the Nine Rings Tower ceremony venue, Mavis, the Lord of the White Tower, moved her long ears and asked worriedly, "Why hasn't Deya woken up yet?
According to the records in the tower, the inheritance of the Crown of Wisdom can be completed in just one hour, but why hasn't Deya regained consciousness after a day and a night?"
Adolf, who was studying a handful of ashes with his head down, said casually, "Doesn't this just show how different this kid is?
I had no confidence in whether he could complete this spell before, but now I suddenly have confidence that this kid might really be able to complete the tower's goal for 5,000 years."
Just as Adolf was teasing, Deya suddenly opened his eyes.
Mavis's expression lit up. She quickly stepped forward and asked nervously, "Deya, do you feel that there is something wrong with you?"
It seemed as if Deya's mental consciousness had not yet fully returned. He was stunned for a moment, shook his head, and turned his head to look at the dreamy elf face just a dozen centimeters in front of him.
He whispered, "...There is no problem. I have obtained all the knowledge. Why do you think there might be something wrong with me?"
"You have been standing here for a day and a night. This is different from all the records of inheritance ceremonies in the past."
"So that's how it is. I was just trying to make a new deduction of the spell in the sea of consciousness."
"How is the result?"
"It's not completely guaranteed yet. I need time to verify it."
As a rigorous wizard, Deya cannot assume that he will succeed just by gaining experience points once.
He needs to repeat this process. If this process can be replicated, it means that he is only a matter of time away from success.
At this time, Deya noticed that Master Adolf was dancing in front of a handful of ashes. He asked in confusion: "Master, what are you doing? Is this some kind of magic ritual?"
Master Adolf stopped jumping and said, "This is not a magic ritual, Deya, do you know what this is?"
He pointed at the handful of ashes.
Deya hesitated and said, "Is this the teacher's... body?"
When a lich dies, it will turn into a handful of ashes. After using the inheritance ceremony of the "Crown of Wisdom", Master Irving should have turned into a handful of ashes in theory.
"Haha, yes, this is Irving's ashes. I've always wanted to dance in front of his ashes, but I never had the chance. Now the chance is finally here."
Deya's face turned dark. If someone else did the same thing, he would have cast a spell to kill the other person first.
But if it was Master Adolf.
Considering the friendship between Master Adolf and the teacher, the teacher himself probably wouldn't care.
"Aren't you afraid that the teacher will fight you to death after he resurrects?"
Deya complained.
Master Adolf restrained his smile and said seriously: "By the time he resurrects, I may have really died of old age, unless you, Deya, can break the life limit set by the Singer of Silence.
So, what do you think about that spell? If you think it's impossible, then the tower will decide to execute the escape plan. "
Deya said in a deep voice: "Give me a few days, I need to verify whether my idea can succeed!"
