Understanding, imagination, and construction were the three main elements of magic formation. In ancient times, magic was only mastered by a small number of people. The human brain was very special. Even if it was the same sentence, different people would have different understandings. Therefore, the inheritance of magic became very difficult. During the era of the explosion of magic, countless excellent magic disappeared in the long river of history for this reason.
In the following thousands of years, a certain magician suddenly had an idea. If he could record his magic and his understanding in words or pictures, and then add a description in words, perhaps there would be someone in the future who could reproduce his magic in the world. Thus, magic words, or runes, were born.
The appearance of runes gave magic a carrier. Later magicians found that even if they understood the principle, as long as they saw the magic with their own eyes, people with a certain foundation in magic could miraculously perform the magic of runes.
Therefore, runes lowered the threshold for magicians. Many magicians devoted their lives to studying runes, and rune mages appeared in the world. With the development of time, these obscure magic words were gradually transformed. In addition to containing understanding, they also guided the imagination of later generations in the form of pictures.
After generations of improvement, magic arrays were born. They were like magic formulas. Not only could they greatly reduce the threshold for magic, but they could also quantify magic power. For the process of imagination, some magicians even added the assistance of language. The appearance of spells allowed many people without magic talent to use some simple magic as long as they worked hard.
The reform of magic brought great changes to mankind and the world.
Just over a hundred years ago, a genius magician from the Getan Empire proposed the idea of modern magic. Magic was just a phenomenon, not a process. He boldly engraved magic on a special carrier so that the magic could continue to work. When there was no magic supply, the magic would stop working. When the supply of magic power was restored, the magic would also work normally.
This was the first magic machine, a modern magic craft that could allow any ordinary person to use magic.
And its origin was the capital of the Getan Empire.
The sun rose, and the ancient castle suddenly "moved." The gurgling water activated some magic, and the boats floating on the water miraculously moved. It was obvious that this ancient city had a very mature transportation system. The sun shone directly to the highest point, where there was a statue. It was the founder of modern magic, known as the Great Sage of Modern Times. He raised his right hand, holding a bronze plate that looked like the sun. When the sun shone on it, it would emit a rainbow-like light.
This statue was the scene when he created the world's first magic machine, the miraculous Rainbow Stone.
The rainbow reflected in the Demon King's eyes. He stood on the first high wall, facing the palace. The moment the sun rose behind him, countless pillars of light suddenly appeared on the four walls behind him, enveloping the entire capital.
In the castle, the Queen controlled eight giant claws to fight against the mosquito-like Besis. She was gradually losing the upper hand, and more wounds appeared on her claws...
However, at this moment, the pillar of light on the city wall suddenly bent and drew close to the castle, instantly turning into the shape of a birdcage.
The Demon King slowly closed his eyes. The source of the pillars of light was a magic rune. Although he did not know what kind of magic was running in this city, as long as he cut off the supply of magic, no matter how powerful the magic was, it would not work.
The Demon King, who had studied the theory of magic machines, knew one of the characteristics of magic machines. The magic components would compete with each other for magic, forming an antagonistic relationship. A lack of magic did not necessarily mean that there was no magic at all, but that there was not enough magic to activate the weakest component.
Therefore, the Demon King was equivalent to adding a component to this huge machine, causing it to compete endlessly for magic, causing a short circuit in the magic machine. The magic he cast on the wall only had one function, and that was to directly convert magic into ordinary light.
This was a very simple spell. Beginner Mages would usually learn a small spell, but what many people didn't know was that this kind of small spell that only required a small amount of magic to use was actually a spell that consumed magic. Because it was very simple, no matter how much magic there was, it could be easily constructed.
Soon, the pillars of light became thicker and brighter, gradually covering the entire sky above the city.
The number of Beshis that were constantly being generated gradually decreased. At that moment, the city walls suddenly detected a threat. Many border guard machines suddenly appeared. They had just set up their weapons when they lost power due to the lack of magic.
Now, only the palace had not been breached. All the secrets were buried there.
The strong light gathered into a point and concentrated on the stone on the statue. That was the core of the barrier protecting the palace.
The Queen Mother finished off the last Beshis. Her body was covered in shallow wounds, but it was not serious. She turned around and looked at the Demon King. "Did it succeed?"
"Soon."
The Demon King came up behind her and patted her on the shoulder, saying, "You did well."
A comfortable light shone on the Queen Mother, and her wounds quickly healed.
"Then what should we do now?"
"Wait."
The Demon King raised his head and looked at the palace, at the point where countless rays of light gathered.
The city wall barrier could block most attacks, but it definitely could not block the sunlight. So the Demon King turned his magic into sunlight and melted the core of the barrier.
"Why do we have to wait? Can't I just destroy it?"
The Queen Mother stretched out her huge claws and was about to attack when the Demon King stopped her. "Don't do anything rash. This is used to block the Demon King's magic. It's not that easy to destroy."
The gathered sunlight shone on the rainbow stone. The intense heat gradually melted it. Suddenly, a terrifying energy emerged from the stone's cracks.
Boom!
The stone suddenly exploded, but the barrier did not disappear. Instead, it triggered a new defense system.
In an instant, the statues all over the city rumbled, and their bodies suddenly cracked. They were not simple statues, but the last guards of the castle, magic machine guards.
The Queen Mother also felt their presence. She slowly turned around and saw thousands of magic machines rushing towards them.
"What's going on?"
"I've cut off the city's external senses. Its defense level is now the highest."
The Demon King said.
Although the Queen Mother did not understand what he was saying, she knew that it was definitely not good.
Those Beshis that kept appearing made her not dare to be careless. Eight huge claws immediately appeared behind her.
"I'll leave the outside to you. Don't let them enter the palace. I believe you can do it."
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Hmph, who do you think I am? I'm the Queen Mother!"
She roared. Her body was wrapped in a black whirlwind. Her eight huge claws were also wrapped in black whirlwinds. She charged towards the magic machines with an unstoppable force.
The Demon King turned around and faced the palace. His hands were covered in a layer of black energy from his fingertips, slowly turning into a pair of terrifying huge claws. Suddenly, his hands grabbed the transparent barrier.
Squeak squeak!
Intense magic collided and intertwined with countless blue magic sparks. He forcefully tore a large hole in the barrier.
At that moment, there was a disc-shaped altar in the deepest part of the palace. It was also swallowed by the power of nature. Tree roots crawled all over the room. A pair of eyes suddenly lit up in the middle of the room. In the place that was tightly covered by the tree roots, there was actually a person kneeling there.
He slowly stood up. The tree roots on his body were instantly torn apart. In front of him was a cross sword with a halo engraved on it. The guard of the sword was a pair of wings on the left and right.
This sword was the Holy Sword of Salvation. The person kneeling in front of it was the former Hero and current Demon King, Sword Saint Beshis.
The armor on his body had not been corroded by time. When he stood up, his majestic aura from back then had not diminished in the slightest. His handsome face, tall figure, and the legend that could raise the morale of the army by just standing there had awakened once again.
Beshis raised his head, revealing a blank expression. He was in an open-air tower, but the top of his head was already covered in green plants.
Suddenly, he opened his mouth, and a black evil magic aura came out of his mouth. He reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword. In an instant, there was a bang. The Holy Sword was unwilling to be corroded by the darkness and broke itself.
The white wings instantly turned black. He raised his sword and suddenly slashed backward. The terrifying black sword aura instantly split the entire tower and rushed straight towards the Demon King who was a few hundred meters away. It hit the Demon King like a raging wave.
Bang!!!
A long tunnel appeared in the palace, and a long crack on the ground stopped in front of the Demon King.
The Demon King crossed his arms and blocked in front of him. The surface of his body was covered with a layer of red scales with a tail that seemed to be made of metal and bone.
"Hey, hey, you've just woken up and you're already throwing a tantrum. This is not good."
He teased.
However, in the next moment, a figure appeared in front of him. Beshis stabbed out with his sword, and the restless dark energy burst out. With a bang, it poured into the Demon King's eyes.
Boom!!
The terrifying energy bombarded the Demon King's body and spread out in a fan shape behind him. Many houses collapsed in an instant.
"Wanton destruction is not good! Go and fight! "
The Demon King's eyes suddenly sharpened. He opened his hands and sent Beshis flying.
However, Beshis instantly found his balance. Just as he was about to attack, the Demon King suddenly flashed in front of him and punched him in the face.
The fist carried destructive power, but Beshis suddenly backhanded and slashed at the Demon King's hand. Although it did not cause any damage to the Demon King, he used the reaction force to dodge the punch. Then, he changed his attack. The evil sword in his hand turned into thousands of blades and stabbed at the Demon King.
The Demon King's eyes changed. Knowing that this opponent was completely different from his previous enemies, he opened his mouth and shouted the word "break".
Boom!!
The magic explosion caused by the rapid release of magic forced him back, and the two once again pulled apart the distance between them.
However, the moment Beshis flew out, he actually stepped on the wind and used a sword skill. Dozens of black sword auras fell from the sky.
The Demon King stretched out his hand, and a huge magic barrier appeared in front of him, blocking most of the black sword auras.
However, a sword aura suddenly flashed out from one of the sword auras, and the Demon King's magic barrier was suddenly pierced through. Beshis actually hid in the sword auras and aimed at the Demon King's weakest shield to attack. He broke through the Demon King's defense and used a sword skill that fell from the sky. Suddenly, thunder rumbled in the sky, and he turned into a lightning storm and slashed at the Demon King.
