(In the previous chapter, King of the Hill was mistakenly written as Throne of Stone, but this chapter has changed it back.)

In the world of Velen, the Black Forest has always been an absolutely neutral force. As long as you do not set foot in the Black Forest, basically the strength of the Black Forest will not expand outwards. Even those who have signed a special contract with the Black Forest like the French royal family will not be affected by it.

The use of the Black Forest is only limited, otherwise, the Fran Empire would not just stay in Velen Continent.

However, based on Leo and Sylvia's understanding of the Black Forest, the Black Forest can be said to be the protector of the world. The gods of the Black Forest will only take the initiative when the world is threatened, and the extraordinary creatures of the Black Forest cannot leave either.

Black Forest, go to the outside world and do whatever you want.

However, when I heard the church knight Digaro of the Rock Church telling the story about the relief that was suspected to be in the floating city in the Black Forest, he told something that was completely opposite to what Leo and Sylvia knew.

The existence turned out not to be a neutral guardian, but became an evil existence that invaded the world, and the Lord of Stone believed in by the Rock Church became the patron saint protecting the world.

The two launched an extraordinary divine battle in the northern polar region. The final result was that the mysterious existence on the floating city was eliminated by the Lord of Stone. The floating city fell into the extremely cold and cold seabed abyss in the north, and the Lord of Stone was also seriously injured and could not survive.

If you don't fall into a deep sleep, you still haven't woken up.

This incident was written into the canon as one of the greatest achievements of the Lord of Stone, but this achievement was not recognized by other churches, because the clergy of these churches did not obtain the Lord of Stone from the gods to defeat the powerful invaders.

The matter of saving the world is believed to be a deliberate attempt by the Rock Church to demonstrate the orthodoxy and justice of its own deity.

And in the original version of the story, the other gods in this incident were also written as beings similar to clowns, and the Lord of Stone was completely written as the king of gods. This caused other churches to have doubts about this version of the fundamental scriptures of the Rock Church.

Extremely dissatisfied, and even hostile to it, the Church of the Rock was finally forced to agree to revise the basic scriptures, and was not allowed to carve reliefs of stories related to it except in the main temple. Only then did the matter calm down.

It is precisely for this reason that ordinary people in the Rock Church do not know much about the achievements of the Lord of Stone, and no one outside the church knows much about it.

After listening to Digaro's narration, both Leo and Sylvia were a little confused. Although a large amount of content had been deleted, the relevant content Digaro now knew was very different from the original first version, but the relevant content was

The description of the mysterious being that invaded the world in the floating city is still very detailed, and based on these descriptions, it is difficult for them to equate that floating city with the floating city in the Black Forest.

"I think it's very similar..." At this moment, Sylvia suddenly seemed to have thought of something and looked at Leo, but hesitated to speak.

"What does it look like?" Leo asked puzzled.

"Wizard, Tower Wizard." Sylvia said.

After hearing Sylvia's guess, Leo did not show any strange emotions. Instead, he nodded slightly and agreed, because he also felt the same. Although Digaro's description was not very detailed, it was

The power used by the master of the floating city in the battle between gods was very similar to a witchcraft that Leo knew.

The reason why the Tower Wizard is able to occupy a place in the world of Velen where the power of the gods has an absolute advantage, even if it is classified as a heretic, will still not affect its survival and inheritance. The reason is not only because of the mysterious whereabouts of the Tower Wizard, but more importantly

It is because they have mastered some extremely powerful witchcraft, including the witchcraft of capturing and controlling demiplane space. Needless to say, there are also several extremely powerful witchcraft among the tower wizards that can allow them to do it when necessary.

Sometimes, it can harm or even kill the gods. Just like the power that the owner of the floating city used to seriously injure the Lord of Stone was very similar to a powerful witchcraft called the Great Decomposition mastered by the tower wizard.

What's interesting is that Leo didn't see records about tower witchcraft that was powerful enough to kill gods, such as the Great Decomposition Technique, in the notebooks of the tower wizard. These records came from the heretical books of the King of the Hill.

, in that classic book, there are detailed records of various forces and related abilities classified as heretics by the Church of the Mountain King. Most of the contents of this book are records of tower wizards, and many of the contents are

It is unprecedented in other church books.

However, what is even more interesting is that although judging from the heretical books of the Church of the Hill King, the Church of the Hill King attaches great importance to the power of the Tower Wizard, but looking at the history of heresy punishment in the world of Velen, the punishment of the Tower Wizard by the Hill King

The pursuit was the lightest, and the Orthodox Tribunal even suspected that there was some secret deal between the Church of the Hill King and the Tower Wizard.

In that heretical book, there was a detailed record of the witchcraft of the tower wizard, the Great Disintegration Technique, which was far more detailed than other types of tower witchcraft. The record described being hit head-on by this witchcraft.

The scene after that was very similar to the scene where the Lord of Stone was seriously injured as described by Digaro just now. Most of the body disappeared in an instant, and the remaining body gradually collapsed.

Leo does not think that Digaro made up these contents, nor does he think that he has deleted or concealed them. Although he is a devout Knight of the Rock Church, he is facing Leo's increasingly skilled and powerful spiritual spirit.

It can influence him, and he has no room for resistance. As long as he does not make explicit orders that violate his core beliefs and values, it is impossible for him to get rid of this silent spiritual influence.

"I'm very interested in this record. Can you bring me some books related to it?" After thinking about it for a while, Leo asked Digaro.

Digaro hesitated for a moment. He felt that he should reject this request, but when the rejection came to his lips, he swallowed it back inexplicably. Then he nodded inexplicably and said: "Okay, you come with me."

After saying that, he saw him turn around and walk towards a small door at the back of the temple. Leo and Sylvia also followed. Qiao An seemed to have discovered something, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, but soon he

He threw away the doubts in his mind and followed.

The group of people walked out of the small door, passed through a short corridor, and arrived in front of the hut located in the garden on one side.

Then he saw Digaro take out the key, open the door, and then paused at the door, seeming to be thinking about something, then turned to Leo and Sylvia and said: "You guys wait here for a while."

After saying that, he walked into the house alone, and then went down the steps in the middle of the house to the ground. After a while, he saw him coming up again, but at this moment he already had four or five books in his hands.

Big books.

Leo and Sylvia stepped forward to take these tomes.

Digaro waved his hand and said, "Everything you want to know is in these books."

After hearing this, Leo immediately sat on the lawn outside the house, then directly picked up the top book and flipped through it quickly.

From the outer cover of the books, the material of the pages and the packaging method, it can be seen that they are very old, at least a thousand years old. The text on the books is not any type of text that Leo knows, but this book has been restored and sealed in the process of restoration.

Translation files written in this world lingua franca are also packaged in according to the number of pages. It is precisely for this reason that the pages of these books are many and thick.

By comparing these translated documents, Leo quickly mastered the ancient writings of the northern polar regions of the Old Continent in the books, and also included the contents of the books into his own database.

There is nothing wrong with what Digaro said just now, but it can only be regarded as a simplified content. After these simplified contents are told to Leo and the others, Leo and the others will have an illusion that the incident happened.

The time was very short. He appeared from the floating city and was designated as a heretic invader. Then the Lord of Stone attacked the floating city. In the end, he was seriously injured in exchange for the death of the owner of the floating city. The floating city sank into the abyss of the sea. The whole process only took a few years.

time,

In fact, the entire incident took several hundred years from beginning to end, and the Light God War lasted for more than a hundred years. This war even affected the landscape and environment of the northern polar regions of the Old World.

Although these books are very thick, Leo reads very quickly. It took him more than ten minutes to finish reading these books and record them in the database.

Sylvia also flipped through the translations, but her focus was different from Leo's. She was more concerned about the performance of the gods in this world in this divine war, and she discovered that when this incident happened

, this world seems to be in a state where humans and gods coexist. The gods seem to be very close to humans and can move freely in this world and show miracles to believers at will.

Although the church in this world is not too bad now, as long as the talented clergy in the church can obtain blessings from the gods by praying to the gods, obtain some magic, and can freely perform these magic, compared to the world of Velen

The church is much better.

But if compared with the relationship between gods and mortals in this world in the past, it is obviously much worse, and the magical skills granted by the gods are also much worse. The more important point is that mortals can no longer get close to the gods, or even look at the gods.

.

There are some small details recorded in these classics. The relationship between gods and humans at that time was very close. It could even be said that humans and gods lived together. The gods could enter human tribes, castles or countries in the form of humans, and they could also have sex with humans.

The intimate relationship gave birth to a special being called the Son of God.

After Leo handed those books back to Digaro, he asked, "Can you cast the Lord of Stone's magic?"

Digaro took the book and said: "Of course, any knight of the Lord of Stone can cast the exclusive magic of the church knights."

"Can you release one for me?" Leo asked again.

Digaro was stunned when he heard this. He did not expect Leo to have such a request, but this time he did not feel disgusted in his heart. On the contrary, he very much agreed with the request. Without saying anything extra, he just picked up the hand.

The big shield pushed towards Leo, and while doing this action, he let out a low roar with a special language in his mouth, and as he roared, a layer of grouper-like material appeared on the surface of his shield.

of light.

In an instant, Digaro's shield hit Leo hard. However, what he didn't expect was that Leo, who should have been knocked away, was still standing there. Not only did his feet not move a step, he even didn't move.

His body didn't even move, and it felt like the impact didn't hit him at all.

"How is this possible?" Digaro was extremely surprised, looking at Leo as if he were seeing something incredible, and murmured.

At the same time, Qiao An on the side also had the same look, and the same question arose in his heart.

When Digaro suddenly attacked Leo just now, Qiao An was ready to save Leo. However, although his reaction was quick, it was still slower than Digaro. He could only watch Digaro helplessly.

The stone-shielding magic used hit Leo.

According to Qiao An's understanding of this magical technique, even a heavy object like a train carriage will be knocked down or even roll over after being hit by a shield. This magical technique is also one of the strongest offensive magical techniques of the Knights of the Rock Church.

.

But now, this magic has completely hit Leo, but it has not caused any harm to Leo. Let alone damage, even the clothes did not shake when it was hit. This is really true.

Qiao An was extremely shocked.

On the other side, when Leo's opponent's magical shield shot down on him, the magical power contained in it was immediately wrapped by the psychic shield on the surface of Leo's body and guided into his body, where it was targeted by other divine marks.

While suppressing, a vague divine mark was also condensed and formed in his body. However, before the divine mark was completely formed, he seemed to hear a roar, and then the unformed mark completely shattered and dissipated.

Come.

Although this roar was not directed at him, the remaining waves also affected him. His spirit seemed to have entered a cave full of lava, and an eye gradually emerged from the lava, staring at him, and then his

My mind instantly left this state and returned to normal.

The abnormality just happened just for a moment. Leo didn't seem to have any abnormality on the surface. Digaro and Joan were still immersed in the shock of Leo's easy use of the shield attack spell, but Sylvia discovered it carefully.

Something was wrong, so I asked, "How's it going? Are you injured?"

"No." Leo shook his head and said, "I wanted to use magic to condense the divine mark of the Lord of Stone, but it failed."

Sylvia comforted him and said: "It doesn't matter if you fail. Try again, maybe you can succeed."

Leo shook his head and said: "No, it can't be successful, because the Lord of Stone is preventing me from doing this, and also gave me a warning."

Because Leo said this in front of Digaro and Qiao An, he also used common language that they could understand. This also caused them to recover from their shock, and then looked at them with a strange look.
