Chapter XIV Netheril Arcanist

The ‘Scrolls of Netherese’ are 100 golden scrolls discovered by the Netherese in the ruins of Arivandar.

However, its true origin remains a mystery to this day.

Brian looked at the golden scroll in his hand. In a daze, he seemed to see the silver magic writing being alive, flowing slowly on the surface.

This made him recall the true origin of the scroll.

In fact, the Nese scrolls are made from the skin of the giant snake of the universe, and they are not as described in the legend, with only two scrolls totaling 100 scrolls.

There are actually three Nese Scrolls.

The second set of scrolls is located deep in the Tower of Windsong in the ruins of the elven city Myth Drannor. It is in the shape of a golden beech tree. This is a golden tree that hides knowledge.

This set of scrolls is believed to have been destroyed long ago.

The recipient of the third set of scrolls is the long-destroyed Mechanical Empire Imasca.

Although this set of scrolls was also destroyed with the demise of Imaskar, the powerful artificers studied the scrolls and created the seven secret weapons of Imaskar.

It is said that these seven artifacts all have independent personalities.

They possess all the knowledge of the artificer lords of the empire and can answer various questions about Imasca customs, politics, magic, etc. As long as you obtain the seven secret weapons of Imasca, you will obtain everything recorded in the third volume.

Knowledge.

This famous book of knowledge allowed two major human empires to rule the world for dozens of centuries. Naturally, it was not a gift from the creator race or a gift from the goddess of magic, as the world spreads.

As some people boldly speculate, the Nese Scroll does not originate from this world, but from the crystal wall system outside the sky of some countries in the multiverse.

Putting it this way, it may be difficult for people to imagine the specific scope, so according to modern people, it is from other worlds outside the solar system.

Brian happened to know the most reliable theory about the 'Nese Scroll'.

According to an unofficial record of a certain deity:

The knowledge recorded in the Nese Scrolls comes from a mysterious organization called the Spellweavers.

This is a magical empire established by a mysterious race with powerful spellcasting ability. It once spanned the entire multiverse and opened the era of interstellar colonists, also known as: The Hub Era.

In the 'Nexus Age', the Spellweaver's colony (called the 'Nexus') was fashioned into massive five-sided spiers of rock and steel, and these spiers were connected to each other through a complex system of portals.

Normally, there is only one Nexus in each world (Note: The principle of the Mythor Core is similar to the magic items used by Spellweavers in ancient times to increase the magic power of the Nexus.)

Spellweavers help countless civilizations in the multiverse develop through the hub's portal system, making it easier for them to obtain resources. Sometimes they also choose to conquer some too primitive races to serve as slaves and hard labor.

And for those very few racial civilizations that may pose a threat to their own empire.

Their strategy is to give the opponent powerful magic items and artifacts, or secretly support a force to let the opponent destroy itself due to internal fighting. It was under this background that the 150 Golden Scrolls were born.

——Excerpted from "The Unofficial History of the Ancient Death God Yeager"

This history can even be traced back to the earliest Thunder Era in the world of Toril, as well as the three major creator races at the beginning of the world.

This is why Brian is so eager to collect the 'Scrolls of Nether'.

Because the knowledge recorded in these scrolls is most likely the knowledge compiled by the interstellar colonizers "Spellweavers" in ancient times after integrating countless magical civilizations in the multiverse.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a large encyclopedia of magical civilizations in the multiverse.

Of course, this also includes the knowledge of the three major creative races in the world of Toril.

He no longer thought about it and turned his attention to a Nese scroll in his hand.

Each scroll is an 8-inch * 10-inch thin gold foil page, as flexible as paper. Although it seems small, it contains huge knowledge.

As long as you read the entire page, the handwriting will rotate and move on the page to reorganize the content of the next page. This is the same as turning on the automatic page turning function on your mobile phone to read a novel.

Brian was not in a hurry to check the magic knowledge recorded in it, but took the lead in checking the classification of this scroll:

Introduction to Arcana (one volume, Chapter 3 of Creation Domain): Energy, Summoning, Armor.

Seeing that the record was a scroll of 'Introduction to Arcana', he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the rise of Netheril, the first volume of "Introduction to Arcana" has been regarded as the most basic common sense by the magic community. The large amount of information and secret arts contained in it are closely related to the following four volumes.

If you have not mastered the basics of the first volume and try to read the knowledge in the next volume, it is often difficult to understand the obscure knowledge in it.

It usually only takes one month to study, and may even increase to more than a year.

This is similar to choosing to skip a grade when going to school.

With a thought, Brian called up his system bar and started the scanning and analysis functions.

This feature is native to their player base.

It is usually used to assist players in reading the knowledge in magic books. It will take different amounts of time to assist players in understanding the knowledge in the books, depending on their intelligence attributes.

Otherwise, if a wizard player does not have systematic magic education, even if he is given a year, he may not be able to successfully master the simplest tricks.

However, since he was reborn into this world, he rarely uses this function.

Because for ordinary books, a simple "reading magic" can be done.

As for obscure magical knowledge, as long as he has enough time, this function takes less time than reading books directly.

The most important thing is that only when all the knowledge in the entire book is analyzed can it be transferred to the mind at once.

He no longer hesitated, and immediately unanalyzed and read the book recording the secrets of shadow given to him by the spider wizard, and then set his sights on the Nese scroll.

"Special magic item discovered!"

"Scanning..."

"Scan completed!"

"Get an extra 500 experience points!"

"Parsing...Progress: 0.1%...0.2%..."

"Analyzing the entire content of the scroll, estimated time: 29 days, 23 hours and 54 minutes!"

…………

One month.

Brian looked at the system bar and was not surprised.

With his current intelligence attribute of 20 points, it would take him a month to read a basic Naise scroll, which is within the normal range.

Of course, if he wants to speed up his progress, the easiest way is to improve his intelligence attributes.

On the contrary, the additional 500 experience points gained from reading the Nese scroll confirmed a doubt in his mind.

It is said that after any reader reads a Nese scroll and has a deep understanding of it, their personal level will increase by one level.

If you master all 50 Nese Scrolls, your career level will even jump directly to level 50.

It can be seen from the experience gained that this statement is not wrong.

Then, he began to make another attempt, preparing to upgrade his battle mage profession to a Netherese arcanist.

This was the career direction he had planned before he obtained the Nese Scroll.

Netherese Arcanist:

The Grand Arcanist of ancient Netheril is considered the greatest human spellcaster in the history of Faerûn, although the elves claim that everything the people of Netheril learned came from elven wizards. But even so, the Arcanist of Netheril

Still renowned for the powerful magic he controls.

Netherese arcanists are pioneers of legendary spellcasting, dedicated to mastering the mysteries of extraordinary spells.

Most of those with this advanced profession died when the floating city fell from the sky and their powerful empire was destroyed in the desert of Enorok, but a few still survive as lich to this day.

Today's wizards and warlocks who want to advance to become Netherese arcanists and get in touch with the ancient arcanist skills can only explore the lost ruins of Netheril and find the records of the arcanists' long-standing secrets, or

Meet the living descendants of the Arcane Empire - the Wraiths and Halua.
