Chapter 258 108. I can teach you magic.
According to Darkus, Malekith at this stage has enhanced his combat effectiveness through four items and the unaccounted for black dragon Seraphim. These items are Midnight made by Kotek. Armor, the Destroyer made by Malekith himself, and the Supreme Magic Shield of unknown origin, but these three magic items are far less important than the steel ring that Malekith obtained when he was adventuring in the Chaos Wasteland when he was young.
This steel ring, which is older than the elves and existed before the arrival of the Ancient Saint, will bring powerful power to Malekith, increase his magic, and even capture the threads of the wind of magic. It is Malekith The core equipment, wearing this steel ring, Malekith becomes an outstanding legendary mage. Coupled with Malekith's martial arts, he has both magic and martial arts! Travel across the medieval world.
This is the first time that Darkus calls a magic item he obtained an extraordinary item, because in his opinion, this magic item is as unparalleled as the steel ring!
Holy Soul Reef!
Morayog Heg told Darkus in a very subtle way that the souls of elves who died on the sea had a chance to enter the soul reef, and the souls of the Lord of the Abyss believers who died on their beds or died in battle on land also had a chance to enter. In the Soul Reef, instead of being devoured by Slaanesh or entering the realm of the Pale Queen Eth Haiai. But this chance is very small, so small that it is almost slim, unless you die on the beach.
Darkus can cast some spells through the Holy Soul Reef, just like releasing fireballs through the Ruby Ring of Destruction, so when he first entered the throne room wearing the Holy Soul Reef, Malekith, who was in isolation, Staring at him out of state, the magical wind on his body attracted Malekith's attention, until he took out the Holy Soul Reef and showed it to Malekith, who studied it with interest. After the meeting, I lost interest and continued to be autistic.
Obviously, Darkos is not a Druchi warlock, but an alternative Stormweaver who specializes in sea magic. Once there is no longer the medium of Holy Soul Reef, he is still a Druchi warrior, not a storm weaver, let alone a warlock.
The Holy Soul Reef can perform many spells and tricks, such as scuba, which allows Darkus to breathe underwater, but it still cannot perform depths beyond its own strength. What's even worse is that once the skill is used, it cannot be used underwater. There is a feeling of suffocation and drowning in the air, as if the two levels were reversed, and you are also attracted to the water. These effects were all obtained by Darkus after he was bored and tried. For this reason, when the scuba effect lasted, he invaded himself into the bucket of water he usually bathed in to drag out the continuous effect of scuba. Fortunately, there was a bucket so he didn't have to stick his head in the toilet, like the Atlanteans in COS Aquaman.
The Marcelan Cloak, a magical large-scale cantrip that renders a ship and its crew invisible, so that the ship and everyone on board can still be seen by the crew while aboard. It cannot be observed by the outside world, but the invisible ship will still leave a wake behind the ship and create eddies in the fog.
Unfortunately, if Darkus casts a spell alone through the Holy Soul Reef, he can only make the plundering ships invisible, and he can hide up to five ships at a time. What's even more embarrassing is that the Black Ark and the sea monster cannot be invisible. If the Black Ark is made invisible, then Join the Order of Sorceresses.
Mist Envelope is also a trick, but a small one. It will summon a thick fog covering around Darkus, with visibility no more than ten meters. It is similar to some magic in the shadow system, but this mist is not magic and cannot be broken or dispelled. It can only be blown away by the wind.
Water is everywhere, so this trick is magical. After the caster brings a small amount of water, it is purified by the wind of Jilun that gathers in the sea. The water that can be used will fill all the empty buckets. There is the wind of Jilun on the sea, and the wind of Jilun is soaked in it. The ocean flows freely in the sea, but the wind of Ji Lun also has ebbs and flows. But it works, at least when Darkus wants to take a bath in the future, Genevieve won't have to work so hard to add water.
If the sorceresses on board the ship master the magic of water being everywhere, ships sailing on oceans will no longer have to worry about drinking water.
Active Mire is a very practical spell. After trying it once, Darkus immediately thought of how to use it. If a sorceress rides a raid ship in the sky and casts it on the escaping or chasing ships on the sea, it will create a wave of magic. Seaweed, sticky seaweed will surround the ship, causing it to sink deep inside for a short time, making it impossible to sail normally. When he used it, he almost destroyed a predator ship in front of the Vicious Temple. Fortunately, at the critical moment, Drusala, who was standing next to him and watching him, dispersed it in time.
Darkus, who had already suffered a loss once, did not dare to try the vortex spell, and it was easy to cause trouble when cast in the underground sea. As the name suggests, this spell would stir up the wind of Jiren in the area, causing it to stir around to form a vortex. , but he thought that the vortex would not be too big, at least not as powerful as the sorceresses' group. He did not even dare to think about how powerful the vortex that the sorceresses' overload would be.
The next magic name is a bit different, it's called Balshana's Blessing. Yes, it's the one who succeeded Aenarion. Like Fenubar, he was an outstanding navigator before he became the Phoenix King.
This spell must be cast on a journey with a definite destination, and the location of the destination must be known to the caster. The caster closes his eyes, focuses his second sight on the sky, and follows the path of Aegir's wind as it jumps among the stars. In an instant, the lightning of Aegir Wind connected the caster's location and destination, leaving a shimmering blue afterimage in the caster's eyes.
To put it bluntly, it is for navigation, and there are many restrictions. This spell is usually used to escape from danger and reorient when being chased or entering a storm. It is suitable for ocean voyages where the destination is known. Darkus has no interest in trying it. Not because of the name, but because he couldn't see the sky and couldn't track it in the underground sea, and he didn't need to experiment. He didn't want to leave a shimmering blue afterimage in his eyes when he knew the next destination. , it is said that this afterimage remains even when sleeping.
Sea of Mirrors, a very unique spell, requires everyone on the ship to be quiet, and then the caster closes his eyes to cast it. An eerie silence would first envelop the ship, then the surrounding ocean. The sails are slack, the waves are calm, and a low pressure effect soon develops. In Darkus' view, this spell is suitable for hide-and-seek among the islands without aerial reconnaissance.
When Darkus was trying to get familiar with these spells, Malekith, who had come out of seclusion, came to him and said,
"It's a protective magic, but it's just a bit weak!" After Drusala bowed and left, Malekith looked at Darkus said with a smile while trying to cast a spell.
Only then did Darkus notice Malekith's arrival. He turned around and cast the mysterious shield that had been released on Malekith. He shrugged and smiled at Malekith. laugh.
"If I remember correctly, you are the first male Druch who dared to cast magic in front of me." Malekith waved his hand to dispel the mysterious shield cast on him and continued to say with a smile.
Darkus' expression remained normal. He did not have any psychological changes because of Malekith's words. He was about to say something but was interrupted by Malekith.
"It seems that Lord of the Abyss, Marcelan has chosen you? My hand of the Witch King. You are really strange. If I remember correctly, He is the fourth Elf God to bless you." "It
seems so. Yes, my majesty." Darkus said neither arrogantly nor humblely. "Is there anything else besides these ridiculous tricks? I don't think Marcelan will be so mean to his divine choice." Malekith suddenly became interested and asked curiously.
"Of course, my majesty, there are also some tactical spells, such as the Tide God, which can make it move quickly in the sea." Darkus began to show off.
"Is it possible to use sea dragons and the like?"
"It seems not possible?"
"Then what's the use of this spell? Does it swim very fast?" Malekith's complaint was extremely sharp.
"It seems to be true?" Darkus was also a little confused by Malekith's complaints. He thought about it carefully and found that it seemed that it was really as Malekith complained. Under normal circumstances, If you can jump into a gang or attack in the air, you won't need this spell at all.
"Is there anything else?" Malekith continued to ask curiously.
"Abyss countercurrent?" Darkus was a little unconfident at this moment, but he quickly thought about something. The reason why he called the Holy Soul Reef an extraordinary item was not because of the spells that came with the Holy Soul Reef. These spells It's all incidental, not the most important.
"Can it block the collision of the dragon ship?"
"It should be possible?!" Darkus thought about it carefully, and he found that it seemed possible.
"Oh?" Malekith became serious. He knew the power of the dragon ship's collision.
"However, I can't do it in my current state. The magic attached to the Holy Soul Reef cannot exert its power in my current state. Just like there is a skill called Deep Sea Pressure. When I use it, I can only drag the target next to the deck fence into the sea. But maybe I can pull a ship off the sea?" Darkus asked himself uncertainly.
The spells that come with the Holy Soul Reef are completely incapable of exerting their power in Darkus' current state, because he is now a Druchi warrior, but the most important thing about the Holy Soul Reef is that he can become the incarnation of Marcelan. Become the one who dominates the sea! Just like the two incarnations that Darkus saw in his vision!
Malekith didn't say anything at this moment, but waited for what Darkus would say next. Just as Darkus understood him, he also understood Darkus.
Malekith has already studied the Holy Soul Reef before. These spells are all brought by the Holy Soul Reef. Darkus is still a Druchi warrior. Without the Holy Soul that Marcelan gave to Darkus, Reef, Darkus's crappy spells can't be used, not some Druchi warlock.
Moreover, the prophecy of destruction is very clear: the Dark King will die, but not by swords and arrows, but by dark magic, and his body will also be devoured by fire and will burn forever. In Malekith's view, the spells on the Holy Soul Reef are incomparable to black magic and fire. Of course, this is Dacus, and he has an almost paranoid trust, preference and dependence on Dacus. If it had been any other Druchi, he would have killed him long ago. If Darkus wanted to kill him, he wouldn't even want to think about it.
"The real value of this jewelry is that it allows me to become the incarnation of Marcelan. Perhaps those spells can be truly effective under the incarnation of Marcelan." "
Oh?" Malekith's tone changed again. .
Darkus knew that Malekith was interested and wanted to see the effect, but he shook his head and refused. Everything has pros and cons. Extraordinary items will bring extraordinary power, but there will also be a corresponding price to pay!
Just like Malekith's steel ring, wearing it will increase his magical strength, but once taken off, it will become like an addiction. To put it bluntly, Malekith cannot leave the steel ring for a moment.
The same is true for the Holy Soul Reef. Morayig Heg has clearly told him that if he becomes the incarnation of Marcelan, the soul stored in the Holy Soul Reef will be consumed. Morayg Heg has said this. I understand, it’s really a bit serious for Nadakus to become the incarnation of Marcelan for the purpose of experiment. Maybe next time he changes, he will have to sacrifice all the Druchi who are currently sailing in the underground sea. So isn't he out of his mind?
Darkus is not even prepared to use it against Luther Harken. There is a price for showing off, and the most suitable situation for using it is in the decisive battle with Asul's navy. Maybe after a big battle, the souls of the dead Druch and Asul will fill the Holy Soul Reef, allowing him to use it a second time.
Of course, the Holy Soul Reef also has a political symbol. Darkus owns the Holy Soul Reef, so he is Marcelan’s divine choice! Champion of Marselan! The incarnation of Marcelan!
Darkus knew that Assur's cousin had a Stormweaver who believed in Marcelan and specialized in sea magic. The Holy Soul Reef and his identity might also play a certain diplomatic role, and he could let Slann The magic priest, Malekith and the sorceress will work backwards based on the spells he casts. At that time, a unique set of sea magic will be established among the sorceresses. The Duruchi version of the Storm Weaver will be equipped on the Black Ark and the Plunderer. And on the clipper ship that travels between Naggaroth and Lustria.
"Do you want to learn magic? My hand of the Witch King." Seeing that Darkus refused, Malekith changed the subject and asked jokingly.
"My Majesty, please don't tease me. I have enough things to do. I just have a little leisure time during this period. Moreover, I don't seem to have any magical talent. I can use these few Every spell is difficult." Darkus did not panic, nor did he say yes or no, but climbed up the pole held out by Malekith.
