Chapter 297: Uncovering History
Time goes back to when the Star Vein Kingdom was just founded, that is, after the battle that shocked the entire plane.
When the Star Vein Kingdom was just founded, Tan Xiao, who came here from Blue Star, was called Virtus. With the help of the economic common sense of Blue Star, he alerted the surrounding Obsidian Kingdom and Iron Stone Kingdom and launched a war that was bound to win.
The two countries deployed hundreds of thousands of troops to the east of the Yoxia Mountains. Just when they thought they could easily control the newly founded Star Vein Kingdom, they didn't know that their troops were all killed on the Yoxia Plain in just one afternoon.
Even the terrain of the Yoxia Plain changed because of this, turning it into a wasteland, and finally named it the Hot Sand Wasteland.
No one knows the details of the battle. Later, many people came to the Hot Sand Wasteland to investigate, but all the evidence was buried by the overwhelming yellow sand. This period of history is destined to be buried under this land.
If it was just a simple defeat, in fact, this battle would not be known by so many major countries. The terrible thing is that none of the hundreds of thousands of troops of the two countries could successfully return alive, so that the kings of the two countries that started the war, the Obsidian Kingdom and the Iron Stone Kingdom, were instantly confused.
They concluded that there must be a great man behind the Star Vein Kingdom, whose strength was beyond their imagination.
So, the kings of the two countries lived a life of fear every day, and finally they merged into one kingdom at the suggestion of one person to resist the threat from the Star Vein Kingdom.
This person was the former goddess of wisdom, Luen. She was also the core figure who promoted the fusion of the Obsidian Kingdom and the Iron Stone Kingdom.
This is the origin of the Obsidian Kingdom.
At the same time, Luen, as a key figure, was recognized by the god of war Mars, and naturally became the goddess of wisdom of the Obsidian Kingdom.
After this world-shocking fusion of the two countries, the development process of the Star Vein Kingdom was laid.
No country on the plane was destined to dare to provoke the Star Vein Kingdom. They were all afraid that once they provoked the Star Vein Kingdom, their fate would be the same as those two countries, and they would fall to the brink of disintegration. .
In an environment without external threats, the Star Vein Kingdom began to enter a period of rapid development relying on its rich inland and extremely long coastline.
The initiator of all this, Virtus, the Pope, became more and more elusive after that war. Later, after he abdicated the throne of the Pope, he completely disappeared from the history of the Star Vein Kingdom.
Before he left, Virtus specifically warned the founding king of the Star Vein Kingdom, Jin Stella, not to leave too many records about him.
Jin naturally had no objection and prohibited the country from discussing Virtus in public.
This is why in Tan Xiao's era, almost no one knew who Virtus was, and only the undead in the Shadow Falling World knew that Virtus was their supreme god.
From then on, Virtus was Tan Xiao who was forcibly sent back to this era from Blue Star. He took the Scepter of Eternity he obtained and returned to the Shadow Falling World with the undead who were transformed from hundreds of thousands of dead soldiers of the Obsidian Kingdom and the Iron Stone Kingdom, and formally established a country in the Shadow Falling World under their support.
Tan Xiao also gradually grasped the secret of the throne in the process of gradually merging with the Shadow Falling World.
At the same time, he wanted to use the newly formed Scepter of Eternity in his hand to create a massive black hole, and return to his original era through the time expansion generated by this black hole.
However, as his strength became stronger and stronger, he found that he still had no way to go back. Especially in the space power he possessed, it seemed that he was always controlled by an invisible existence.
Whenever he wanted to create a massive black hole, there was always a mysterious force that prevented him from succeeding.
So he began to concentrate on studying magic, which was also the most stable period for Tan Xiao after returning to that era.
He did not consider how to go back in a short time. Instead, he began to write the Book of the Dead, which was the artifact that would be preserved in the future.
That is, when his strength became stronger and stronger, he suddenly had the idea of going to the Demon Realm.
He came to the northern part of the Star Vein Kingdom, which is the location of the extremely cold tundra, and found the plane well that can be connected to the Demon Realm.
He began to calculate the plane coordinates of the demon world, striving to calculate the plane coordinates without opening the plane well, and then use the power of space to open a space channel that he can control to reach the demon world.
Spring goes to winter, summer solstice and autumnal equinox, and after many years of calculation, Tan Xiao finally got the accurate coordinates of the demon world on a spring afternoon.
That afternoon, Maestra suddenly returned to the Star Vein Kingdom and saw Tan Xiao, who had completely changed, in the extremely cold tundra.
At that time, Tan Xiao was no longer a young man. He did not deliberately make himself younger, but remained in the appearance of a middle-aged man.
Seeing Maestra, who had disappeared for many years, Tan Xiao looked at him and realized that he must have done something.
Because Maestra was particularly weak at this moment, so weak that Tan Xiao felt that he was about to die.
As if realizing what the other party had done, Tan Xiao's strength at this moment was no longer the same as before, and in just a moment he brought Maestra to his temple in the Shadow Falling World.
"Long time no see, I finally finished what I should do."
After a short rest, Maestra seemed to slowly recover, her face turned red and no longer as pale as when they first met.
"The reason why I came to you is to formally form an alliance with you."
Maestra stared hard at Tan Xiao, who was already middle-aged.
"I know your name is not actually Vertus, your name should be Feng Sheng, no. Your name should be Tan Xiao."
At that moment, Tan Xiao's expression suddenly changed. He didn't know how Maestra knew the secret buried deep in his heart.
However, before she could speak, Maestra continued,
"I have been targeted by the dark goddess Char. Her purpose is very clear to destroy the magic network I created and replace my magic network with her shadow web."
At that moment, Tan Xiao frowned tightly,
"Destroy the magic network you created? Wouldn't that mean that the magic in many planes will become ineffective?"
Tan Xiao already knew the status of Maestra in the magical world, except for some planes that did not use magic. In this world, as long as it is a plane that uses magic, magic must be run according to the magic network of Maestra.
"More than that, Ciel wants to become the King of Gods through this matter."
