#177 - The reason why the magic tide receded
Su Nan looked at it strangely, this so-called thought of a formal wizard. Because of that old silver coin, Oak Wizard's, concern, Su Nan was filled with vigilance towards anything left behind by formal wizards that could think for itself.
This thought, wouldn't it be able to revive by occupying a wizard's body?
However, according to his own understanding, if a wizard didn't even have a soul, or even a fragment of a soul, it would be unlikely to revive by occupying someone else's body.
Su Nan had secretly checked this shadow wizard's thought and found that he was only using specific magical power to store it on the metal wall in something similar to a magic circle.
From another perspective, it could be understood as the shadow wizard storing his thought patterns and memories in a magic circle before his death.
Su Nan greeted the shadow wizard's thought, "I am Su Nan Peter."
"Indeed, from the surface."
The shadow wizard laughed. "Heh heh, it seems that the Matron Black Rye's invasion of the surface angered you, so you followed their decades-long tunnel digging towards the ground and entered the underground. How is it, the world we created over thousands of years... feels pretty good, right?"
The shadow wizard said somewhat proudly.
If he wasn't already dead and now just a thought, not even a wizard's soul, perhaps the huge gap between him and Su Nan would have made him not even glance at Su Nan.
But now, the situation was different.
The shadow wizard had now become amiable, as if he had lost all airs.
Su Nan asked, "The world you created? Can you tell me how you died, the origin of this world, and what exactly happened?"
The shadow wizard sighed and said faintly, "More than two thousand years ago, after we defeated the energy creatures, we discovered a problem. That energy world, whose name cannot be spoken, was too powerful. Their seven kings were all immortal conceptual entities."
"Even if the seven kings were killed, they would be reborn at the deepest part of that energy world in at most a hundred years. There was also a problem: after those energy creatures died, the energy they carried dissipated and polluted the main material plane."
"And then polluted the Secret Realm."
"This led to the pollution of the entire main material plane, and then the magical tide receded."
Su Nan suddenly understood. "I thought the receding of the magical tide was a naturally occurring objective phenomenon."
The shadow wizard shook his head helplessly. "Magical tides do naturally recede, but that's calculated in billions of years. According to the original trajectory, it would be at least billions of years before the magical tide receded and the land entered a magic-less era."
"Now I hear that the magical tide is rising again. Actually, there is a problem with this statement, as if the magical tide really receded."
"The main material plane we are in now is like a nearshore beach in an ocean of magic. It was only because a large number of energy creatures died in our world that our world was overwhelmed, which triggered the receding of the magical tide."
"Otherwise, how could the magical tide be so easily called back?"
Su Nan frowned.
Now that powerful energy world had returned, it was just like locusts.
Very troublesome.
It seemed that the energy world was preparing to fight to the death with the main material plane, to wash away the shame of its failure more than two thousand years ago.
The shadow wizard said, "At that time, after the magical tide receded, the wizard organization I was in, the Tower of Aberrations, didn't plan to leave this land because it discovered etherium ore underground, so it gained great confidence and prepared to create a new magic system to take the organization to the next level."
"The Tower of Aberrations' consistent philosophy has been to use conjuration school magic to create more powerful magical creatures."
"We also believed at the time that we could rely on the newly discovered fifth element, the ether element, to create mages who could adapt to the receding magical tide."
Su Nan said, "You mean the arcane race, the Drow?"
The female arcanist, Song, wanted to argue a little, but thinking that she was now Su Nan's slave, she could only endure it.
She didn't quite like the tone of the exchange between the two wizards in front of her, that the arcanists were something created by wizards.
The shadow wizard sneered. "Arcanists? Are they worthy?"
"They were just some failed experiments. If we had succeeded, then the arcanist system should have at least produced second-circle wizards and be able to fully adapt to the low-magic environment."
"Being able to fully adapt to a magic-less environment was just one of our goals. We also knew that this was almost a fantasy."
"However, if we hadn't encountered that conspiracy rebellion at the time, if we had continued our research, we should have been able to create something better than the Drow that could adapt to the low-magic environment."
Su Nan asked in confusion, "Rebellion?"
The shadow wizard said, "At that time, there were far more than just our Tower of Aberrations that wanted to create the underground world."
"But I'm sorry, in order to prevent our Tower of Aberrations, or perhaps its inheritors, from being targeted by other wizard organizations..."
"I am restricted by the covenant and cannot tell you the names of those wizard organizations."
"Anyway, there were first-circle organizations, second-circle organizations, and even a third-circle organization."
"These wizard organizations were either like us, focused on biological modification in the conjuration school, or pet cultivation in the summoning school, or earth modification in the transmutation school, or environmental modification, a sub-direction of the nature school..."
"We were called the Underground World Wizard Alliance at the time."
"The Drow and arcane magic were projects jointly created by the Underground World Wizard Alliance."
"We decided to create a civilization in the underground world that was not inferior to the orthodox wizard society! We were so determined at the beginning."
"As a result, the ideal was very full, but the reality was very..."
"But you don't have to worry too much about the deeper underground world invading the surface. Because the deeper you go into the underground world, the more it becomes a self-contained system, and it doesn't want to return to the surface very much."
"Just this Black Rye Domain is enough for you to develop."
"Because there were many wizard organizations in the Underground World Wizard Alliance at the beginning, and to be honest, they were also wary of each other, so many underground domain areas in the underground world were not connected, and even deliberately set up barriers to guard against each other, making it difficult to communicate smoothly."
"It will be very difficult for you to find the entrance to other areas of the underground world."
"Especially that third-circle organization. They have been staying in the deepest part of the underground world, conducting a secret research. They simply don't care what happens in other areas of the underground world."
"You can plunder the resources of this Black Rye underground domain as much as you want."
Su Nan nodded.
Indeed, judging from the temperature they lived in, the creatures of the Black Rye underground domain might still want to return to the surface.
But those underground modified races living in high temperatures of one hundred degrees Celsius, starting from the middle layer, are likely to regard the surface as a barren land of severe cold.
The shadow wizard continued to recall, "Later, there was a rebellion by the Drow, the arcanists, and some possible wizard organizations within the alliance."
"You also know that because the Drow are not essentially creatures of the low-magic world, they are at most mid-magic creatures."
"Therefore, the Drow, and the arcanists at that time, were afraid of being abandoned by us. So, they conducted a dangerous experiment. They condensed a [Black Hole Creature] through a large number of etherium stones and modified creatures."
"They tried to use the black hole creature to call back the magical tide."
"The result doesn't seem to have been successful, but it was because of the black hole creature that the magical energy of the underground world gathered in one place, so it could barely maintain a relatively mid-magic magical environment."
"The Underground World Wizard Alliance must have opposed this, thinking it was too risky, and the later threat of the black hole creature proved that the alliance's concerns were correct."
"Therefore, we had a wizard war. Alliance? That became a joke."
"It's just that I died in the early stage of the wizard war in the underground world. So, I don't know many things later."
"After all, as a thought, I can only be trapped here."
The shadow wizard lowered his head and pondered. "I also don't know which wizard organization was so crazy at the time that it actually agreed to ally with the arcanists among the Drow to do such a thing."
"Those black hole creatures must constantly devour flesh and blood in order not to go crazy, so the underground world maintained slavery."
"The initial reason was just to have more creatures to feed the [Black Hole Creature]."
"I only understand the surface area responsible for our wizard organization. So, that's all I know."
