War chess plane.
When Soran heard the name, his mind immediately remembered what happened to him in the Frost Kingdom. At that time, he also mentioned the game of war chess, which seemed to be a popular and influential simulation game in the period of the Arcane Empire. The Arcane Empire had a very splendid civilization, some of which were very popular recreational activities, and the game of war chess seemed to be one of them.
However, this was not simply a game; from the structure, it seemed that this game could cause death!
“Should we kill it?”
The voice of the fallen witch sounded in the other two’s minds, using telepathy: “Although the tower spirit has legendary combat power, it’s not difficult for the three of us to deal with it.”
Soran took a glance at her, shook his head and said, “hold on.”
After saying that, a
“Extracting 1 divinity.”
“Analyzing target!… Analysis complete!… Acquired partial information!…”
Name: Tower Spirit 13 [Activated Tower Spirit] [Demigod Genie] [Artificial Shard of Divinity]
Race: Construct
Grade: Level 20 Construct/ Level 5 Demigod Genie/ Level 5 Arcanist [Grade 7]
Skills: Unknown
Domain: Unknown
“Alert! Alert! Alert!”
“Target creature has an artificial Shard of Divinity!… Divine mode activated!… Calculating Shard of Divinity!… Target creature has lesser Divine Power!…”
Soran was shocked and swiftly said, “Don’t do anything! The target has an artificial Shard of Divinity!”
“He’s the manager of this plane!… It can control the entire plane’s energy to work against us!… We won’t have any chance against it!…”
A Demigod Genie.
Soran was familiar with this divine power. When the tower spirit was created, its creator infused the divinity of the Genie directly. Soran didn’t know what kind of arcanist was able to create a tower spirit of this level. However, it seemed that it had been assimilated to this plane. Only when a creature was bonded to the plane would a non-divine creature possess an artificial Shard of Divinity.
An artificial Shard of Divinity was something from the outside.
Many demon lords had artificial Shards of Divinity, mainly because they assimilated a part of themselves to the Abyss. However, this power was only available in the Abyss. If the demon left the Abyss, they would have it. Some powerful spellcasters could also have artificial Shards of Divinity temporarily, but this was only limited to the half-plane created by them. If the Shard of Divinity was forcibly integrated, they would be imprisoned in the half-plane.
The tower spirit also couldn’t leave this half-plane. Or else, with its powers, it could already move into the wizard tower in the shadow realm.
“Pah!”
A weak glow of red appeared on the tower spirit as it moved toward Soran. It then said in a calm voice, “You all wish to challenge me?”
“I’m the hardest challenge of all!”
“After winning against me, you’ll get the key to the half-plane, becoming the master to this half-plane.”
“But I do not recommend you do this. I was created as a demigod, and now I’m the controller of the plane Elemental pool. Here I have the power of a lesser god, and your chances of winning would be less than 3%!… ”
“I recommend you all do the normal challenge.”
Divine realm!
When Soran heard what the tower spirit said, a thought appeared in his mind.
The gods were almost invincible in their own divine realm; unless the divine realm could be destroyed together, the power of the gods were almost endless. The demigod tower spirit was in a similar situation; this half-plane was like its own kingdom. It directly controlled the Elemental pool of the half-plane and all the forces were controlled by it. As long as the Element pool continued to operate, its power would not be used up. The most effective and simple way to deal with it was to break the half-plane from the outside and destroy it.
“Well?”
The three there looked at each other and were wondering what to do.
They knew almost nothing about this half-plane, but since the original owner here had fallen, its operation should be set in the past. Maybe they could find an opportunity when they further understood the half-plane.
“Let me try.”
Soran took a look at the teleportation array in front, then said to the two, “You two watch the surrounding; if anything strange happens, make a move.”
Gloria nodded and said, “Okay.”
Countless glows of magic were seen as the two witches prepared for battle.
Soran looked up at the tower spirit in front of him. From the beginning to the end he had been very calm. After Soran stepped on the teleportation array, the tower spirit said in a cold voice, “let the war chess begin!”
“1 challenger.”
“Challenger has the power of a legend! Challenge level set to highest, tower spirit 13, assume command!…”
“Activating simulation map.”
A strange glow of light appeared.
Soran’s figure disappeared from where he stood and appeared in the array of stone pillars. When he opened his eyes, he had already appeared in another world.
No!
This was not his body; everything was fake.
As a god, Soran saw the essence of this space in a flash. He saw his own body through the fog in the sky. His body stood on the array of stone pillars. The body he now had was just a kind of dreamlike magic, or a more mysterious and incomprehensible ability.
“How is this possible?”
Gloria was shocked and muttered, “What ability is this? How could this happen!”
In front of them.
A virtual world was rapidly forming. Its area was quite vast and maybe the size of a country. However, in this half-plane, it only appeared as a kind of mirror plane. Soran’s figure was still standing in front of him, but another dream-like country had appeared.
“This is a simulation world!”
The figure of the high priest passed the teleportation array and appeared in front of them. Her expression was solemn, “the tactical simulation ability of the Arcane Empire! A game of war and chess that creates a real world that could be used in many real battles. ”
After finding out that this half-plane was very unusual, Soran immediately used psionic communication and asked for the high priest. Although she did not rely on knowledge like the wizards, the high priest still knew a lot of things about the Arcane Empire.
War game simulation.
This kind of knowledge had been learned by the high priest from somewhere. She thought that this ability had been lost for a long time and didn’t expect to see it again in this half plane. In front of her eyes was a very strange ability close to a real dream, which was more advanced than what she had seen previously. This was a virtual world formed by directly extracting the power of the half-plane.
“Challenge begins!”
“War simulation map construction complete!… After succeeding, you will gain some control of the first layer!…”
A glow of magic appeared in the eyes of the tower spirit, it then said,
“You’re an ordinary civilian.”
“You were born in a peaceful village, but suddenly the peace was broken. A fallen wizard passed by, and he summoned the terrible demon, offering the whole village as a sacrifice to the demon. ”
“A fire burnt everything.”
“Your village had become a sea of flames. There are countless corpses around, and you hear the laughter of the demon.”
“You face a difficult decision!”
“Do you stay to defend your village or run from this place!”
“The enemy is a strong demon while you’re only an ordinary civilian!…”
As the tower spirit spoke, everything in front of Soran began to change.
There were fire burning and sounds of fighting. On the ground, there were many slain bodies, all ordinary civilians. Occasionally, there were screams of panic.
Soran stood at the gates of the village; if he walked forward, he would escape the place, but if he turned around, he would face the demon.
This seemed to be similar to the challenge he had when he encountered the Genie. Previously he was also tested similarly.
Soran still looked the same.
However, he was dressed as a civilian and had no weapon in hand; he looked just like a civilian.
It seemed that his powers had disappeared. Soran couldn’t feel the explosive power he had; instead, he felt weak.
In the burning flames!
A group of Dretches appeared; they found Soran standing at the entrance of the village, then they rushed toward him.
