492 A thousand years
From the very beginning, Zhao Xu had Antonya cast a ” mental barrier ” on him, so he didn’t think too much about it.
However, he still underestimated one thing.
The ‘voice’ he heard might not be real.
this included the message ” don’t look back ” that zhao xu had heard the moment antonya had disappeared.
the truth and the lies represented two completely different possibilities.
at that moment, zhao xu’s mind flashed with thousands of possibilities.
However, after going back to the whole thing, he realized that it wasn’t difficult to choose.
If Antonya had fallen into a pit, then Zhao Xu also felt that it would be safer to fall into the same pit as Antonya.
or rather, if antonya was easily killed by the ruler of the dark phoenix tribe, grazite, in one hit, then there would be no point in zhao xu jumping around.
So, at that moment, he turned his head back resolutely.
And then, Zhao Xu saw the river of time in the mysterious object behind him.
The moment the fireworks bloomed, he saw his past life.
In the hospital’s delivery room, he was shaking his small hands and crying, while the nurse beside him was holding him in a rocking bed posture. His mother on the bed looked at him with a weak expression, but she was smiling in satisfaction. Outside the delivery room, his father was pacing back and forth anxiously.
On the other side, while all of humanity was transmigrating, Zhao Xu, who was only at Level 2, gritted his teeth and pulled out the giant sword in his hand. He then ran towards the wild beasts in front of him. In the end, after a bloody battle, he and a few of his companions dragged the bodies of the wild beasts back and gave their family, who had been hungry for days, a full meal. That was the first time he had carried the family.
During the demon-sealing battle, a young warrior’s chest had been crushed by a demon’s punch, and he fell next to Zhao Xu. At that time, Zhao Xu had poured all the healing potions he had on him into his mouth, but they still couldn’t heal his broken internal organs. this companion of his, who was usually like a shadow following zhao xu around, had always been shouting that he wanted to take revenge with zhao xu, but in the end, he had been buried in that land forever.
All sorts of memories from the past flashed through Zhao Xu’s mind.
He saw the changes of time and the re-distribution and re-collection of fate.
In the end.
Zhao Xu’s entire body was also sucked into the vortex of time. With the power of time, he once again went against the flow of time.
——————–
A thousand years ago.
Mystra.
Zhao Xu once again walked through the streets of Mystra, and he still found it hard to imagine.
Everything in front of him was similar to the Mystra in his memory, but there were also some differences.
but the search for knowledge and skills told zhao xu very clearly.
He had returned to Mystra a thousand years ago.
Zhao Xu looked down the bluestone steps and saw that the originally dazzling Street had become a little bleak. The wind was howling a few times, and it was blowing up a lot of fallen leaves.
However, there were more mages among the pedestrians than there were in Mystra.
At first glance, it looked more like a city where mages stayed.
But there was everything here except Antonya.
Zhao Xu finally understood.
just as the dark owl sovereign grazite had said, he had once used the power of the god of fate, yegger, and saw that his ” game breaker ” ability surpassed fate.
However, grazite had also collected some divine power related to time.
What Zhao Xu had seen when he turned around was the materialization of the divine power of time, and it had brought him back to Mystra from 1000 years ago.
And Antonya had probably traveled back in time to the long river of history because of this.
It was a pity that Zhao Xu only turned around after a long time. It was obvious that he and Antonya weren’t assigned to the same era.
At this moment, Zhao Xu was looking around him. He didn’t know if Antonya was also standing here with him, separated by the river of time, and was also looking at the passage of time in front of her.
Suddenly, Zhao Xu’s heart skipped a beat.
A thousand years ago!
The era of great calamity!
Zhao Xu immediately called for a carriage. let’s go.
Then, he hesitated.
There was still some time before the great catastrophe arrived. At this time, the goddess of magic, sisylvana, had yet to light her godly fire and achieve her reputation as the goddess of magic.
Or rather, the current her was another form of Antonya, and she was an equally outstanding and powerful female wizard.
“Mister?” The coachman looked at Zhao Xu’s attire and knew that he was a master wizard from the city.
But when he saw that Zhao Xu had been silent for a while, he didn’t dare to disturb him loudly, so he just asked him a question in a low voice.
“Do you know where sisylvana lives?” Zhao Xu asked, a little confused.
This was also the first time he had called her a goddess without any title.
“Oh, of course she knows. She’s a great noble of Mystra, and she’s the most famous female mage. many people said that she would be recruited as a follower of the goddess. Go to her mansion? I can take you there now.”
Zhao Xu nodded his head.
Just like that, as the carriage driver drove the carriage forward at a very fast speed, Zhao Xu soon arrived at a very large and grand manor.
“Sir mage, I can’t go in anymore.” The driver whispered to Zhao Xu as if he was afraid of disturbing the people in the yard.
The house was in the central region of Mystra, but the people walking past it all seemed to walk lighter, as if they were tiptoeing.
Zhao Xu didn’t say anything. He just threw a coin down, got off the carriage, and walked towards the door of sisylvana’s house.
If there was someone who could help Arthur send him back to Mystra in the real world, or to Antonya’s era …
Sisylvana, one of the most powerful wizards in Arthur, was his only choice.
At this moment, there were already many visitors gathered outside the main entrance, but most of them were stopped.
I’m sorry, my master is currently entertaining an important guest. No matter what reason you have, he won’t be seeing any guests today. The maidservant at the door said with an elegant and calm expression.
She didn’t have the slightest arrogance, nor did she apologize. She was neither humble nor arrogant.
“Your master made an appointment with me before and told me to come over in the next few days when it’s convenient.” Immediately, a big-bellied mage protested, but he did not have the courage to barge in.
Zhao Xu suddenly understood.
As he did not have the identification of Arthur’s wizard Association, he could not enter the arcane gate smoothly and use the teleportation gate to reach the floating city above.
He had thought that it would be easier to communicate with sisylvana, and there would be no delays.
Who would have thought that the threshold of the other party’s family was not low at all?
At this moment, Zhao Xu’s mind was spinning, and he just walked over to them with a swagger. Immediately, the few people guarding the gate saw this unfamiliar face walking over and hurriedly extended their hands to stop him.
Hello, Mr. Mage. Today, the young lady is entertaining an important guest and can not receive outsiders. The servants in the house looked at the wizard badge that was shining brightly on Zhao Xu’s robe.
although the style was different, they knew that the other party was a fourth-circle mage.
Coupled with his young appearance, he could be said to be an outstanding rising star.
However, that was all.
“By the will of the goddess, I have come to visit.” Zhao Xu said.
As he spoke, he pinned another priest’s Holy emblem on his chest. Fortunately, the Holy emblems of the second and third goddesses of magic were more similar, with most of them being open books.
if it wasn’t for the fact that the church specialized in this field, no one would have been able to tell that there was a difference between the two versions of zhao xu’s holy emblem.
“Yes, I’ll immediately pass on the message.”
When the maidservant heard this, she didn’t even dare to question him and immediately bowed and left.
But Zhao Xu didn’t care and just walked right in.
If sisylvana was talking to the goddess ‘high-level priest, he would definitely be exposed after he spread the news.
“Mr. Mage-”
the servant standing on the side wanted to stop zhao xu, but he was intimidated by his aura and didn’t dare to actually pull on his sleeve.
And Zhao Xu knew why.
In other words, after familiarizing himself with a piece of history, he could return to any point in time with ease.
At this time, a great catastrophe was coming, and the second generation goddess of magic seemed to have sensed the future of her death.
A few years before the disaster, she had already extended an olive branch to sisylvana, trying to make her a God follower.
However, sisylvana rejected him every time.
These servants naturally thought that Zhao Xu had come with the same mission, so they didn’t dare to say anything and stop him. They could only walk in front of him with small steps and show him the way.
Zhao Xu couldn’t help but feel emotional as he looked at the houses here. In the future, this place would be surrounded and become the goddess ‘” temple, ” and the large land in front would be confiscated and transformed into the headquarters of the goddess’ church.
master is in the reception room in front. She is talking to an important guest. The maidservant next to him tried to persuade Zhao Xu in a low voice, ” Mr. Priest, why don’t you go back to your room and wait for a while? we’ll take care of you first.
As for the maidservant who went in first, she was walking over with a surprised look.
It was obvious that she had come to report back after she had sent the message, but she didn’t know that Zhao Xu had already walked in.
wait a minute. Master said that the visiting priest only came yesterday. Why is there another one today? ” The maid immediately opened her arms and stopped Zhao Xu. She stared at him with her eyes wide open, obviously thinking that he was lying.
Just as Zhao Xu was about to take out some magic items and display them for the two of them to pass on the message, another maid suddenly jogged over to him.
master has ordered for this mage to go directly to the guest room. she was panting as she spoke.
“Take it.” Even though the maid who had stopped Zhao Xu was still looking at him suspiciously, she still did what she was supposed to do.
After the group walked around two long corridors, they saw a maidservant softly walk to the mat-covered wooden door. She gently knocked on the door to report, and the originally closed wooden door immediately opened automatically.
Zhao Xu didn’t say anything and just walked over.
Several small coffee tables were placed on the wooden floor. The two people in the room had taken off their shoes and were sitting on the floor with only their socks on.
Zhao Xu looked at them and realized that they were all wearing hoods.
But Zhao Xu was able to tell who they were from their auras and their figures.
Antonya from a thousand years ago.
Sisylvana from a thousand years ago.
It was familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time.
Mr. Mage, it’s not a small matter for you to forge an Oracle. Sisylvana’s soft words hit the heart.
