Chapter 36 Netheril Arcanist



Chapter 36 Netheril Arcanist

The 'Natherian Scrolls' are 100 golden scrolls found by the Netherese in the ruins of Aryvandar.

However, its true origin is still a mystery.

Brian looked at the golden scroll in his hand. In a trance, he seemed to see the silver magic writing alive, flowing slowly on the surface.

This made him recall the true origin of the scroll.

In fact, the Nether scrolls are made from the skin of the Cosmos Serpent, and they are not as described in the legend, there are only two scrolls with a total of 100 scrolls.

In fact, there are three volumes of Naise scrolls.

The second set of scrolls is located in the depths of the Tower of Windsong in the ruins of the elven city Myth Draenor, and it is in the shape of golden beech, a golden grove that hides knowledge.

This set of scrolls is believed to have long since been destroyed.

The recipient of the third set of scrolls is the long-destroyed mechanical empire Imaskar.

Although this set of scrolls was also destroyed with the demise of Imasca, the powerful artificers studied the scrolls and made the Seven Secrets of Imasca.

It is said that all these seven artifacts have independent personalities.

They hold all the knowledge of the artificer lords of the empire, and can answer various questions about Imasca customs, politics and magic. Knowledge.

This famous book of knowledge allowed the two major human empires to rule the world for dozens of centuries. Naturally, it was not a gift from the creator race or a gift from the goddess of magic, as the world spread.

As some people boldly guessed, the Nether Scrolls did not originate from this world, but from the crystal wall system outside the sky in some countries of the multiverse.

In this way, it may be difficult for people to imagine the specific scope, so according to modern people, it is from other worlds outside the solar system.

Brian just happened to know one of the most plausible claims about the 'Nether Scroll'.

According to the unofficial history of a certain god:
The knowledge recorded in the Nether Scrolls comes from a mysterious organization known as the 'Spellweavers'.

This is a magical empire established by a mysterious race with powerful spellcasting ability. It once spanned the entire multiverse and opened the era of interstellar colonists, also known as: the hub era.

During the 'Nexus Age', Spellweaver colonies (known as 'The Nexus') were massive pentagonal spiers of rock and steel, connected to each other by an intricate system of portals.

Under normal circumstances, each world has only one hub (Note: The principle of the Miser core is similar to the magic items used by spellweavers in ancient times to increase the magic power of the hub.)
Through the portal system of the hub, the law weavers help the development of countless civilizations in the multiverse to facilitate their own access to resources, and sometimes choose to conquer some too primitive races to serve as slaves and hard labor.

And for those very few ethnic civilizations that may pose a threat to their own empire.

Their strategy is to give each other powerful magic items and artifacts, or to secretly support a faction, so that the opponent will self-destruct due to infighting. It is against this background that the 150 golden scrolls were born.

——Excerpt from "The Unofficial History of the Ancient Death Jaeger"

Regarding this period of history, it can even be traced back to the earliest thunder era in the Toril world, and the three creator races at the beginning of the world.

This is why Brian is so eager to collect 'Scrolls of Nethercolor'.

Because the knowledge recorded in these scrolls is likely to be the knowledge compiled by the ancient interstellar colonizers "Weavers" after integrating countless magic civilizations in the multiverse.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is an encyclopedia of multiverse magic civilization.

Of course, this also includes the knowledge of the three major creator races of the Toril world.

He didn't think about it any more, and turned his attention to a Nether scroll in his hand.

Each scroll is an 8-inch by 10-inch thin gold leaf page, as flexible as paper. Although it looks small, it contains a huge amount of knowledge.

As long as you read the entire page, the handwriting will rotate and move on the page to recompose the content of the next page, which is the same as reading a novel with the automatic page turning function on your mobile phone.

Brian was not in a hurry to check the magic knowledge recorded in it, but took the lead in checking the classification of this scroll:

Introduction to the Arcane (One Volume, The Realm of Creation Chapter 3): Energy, Destruction, Killing.

Seeing that the record was a scroll of 'Introduction to Arcane Art', he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the rise of Netheril, the first volume of "Introduction to the Arcane Arts" has been regarded as the most basic common sense by the magic community, and a lot of information and secret arts contained in it are closely related to the next four volumes.

If you have not mastered the basics of the first volume, trying to read the knowledge in the next volume, it is often difficult to understand the obscure knowledge in it.

Usually it only takes one month to study, and it can even be increased to more than one year.

This is the same as choosing to skip a grade when you were in school.

With a thought, Brian called up his system tray and started the scanning and analysis functions.

This feature comes with their player base.

It is usually used to assist players to read the knowledge in magic books. Depending on the player's intelligence attribute, it will take different time to assist them in understanding the knowledge in the books.

If not, a wizard player may not be able to successfully master the simplest tricks even if he is given a year without systematic magic education.

However, since he was reborn in this world, he rarely used this function.

Because of ordinary books, a simple "reading magic" can be done.

As for the obscure magic knowledge, given enough time, the time spent on this function is not as good as reading directly from books by himself.

The most important thing is that only after analyzing all the knowledge in the entire book can it be transmitted to the mind at one time.

He didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately canceled the analysis and reading of the book recording the shadow art given to him by the spider wizard, and then locked his target on the Nether scroll.

"Discover special magic item!"

"Scanning."

"Scan complete!"

"Get an extra 500 experience points!"

"Progress in parsing: 0.1% 0.2%"

"Analyze all the contents of the scroll, estimated time: 29 days, 23 hours and 54 minutes!"

…………

a month.

Brian looked at the system bar, not surprised.

With his current intelligence attribute of 20 points, it took him a month to read a basic color-resistant scroll, which was within the normal range.

Of course, if he wants to speed up his progress, the easiest way is to improve his intelligence attribute.

On the contrary, the extra 500 experience points obtained by reading the Nether scroll confirmed a doubt in his heart.

It is said that any reader, after reading a Nether scroll and having a deep understanding of it, their personal level will increase by 1 level.

If all 50 color-resistant scrolls are integrated, the professional level will even directly soar to level 50.

From the experience gained, it can be seen that there is nothing wrong with this statement.

Then, he began to make another attempt, preparing to advance his battle mage profession to Netheril Arcanist.

This was the career direction he had planned before he obtained the Nether Scroll.

Netheril Arcanist:
The great arcanists of ancient Netheril are considered the greatest human spellcasters in the history of Faerûn, though the elves claim that everything the people of Netheril learned came from elven wizards.Even so, Netheril's arcanists are renowned for the powerful magic they wield.

Netherese arcanists are pioneers in the casting of legendary spells, dedicated to mastering the mysteries of those otherworldly spells.

Most of those with this advanced job died when the floating city fell from the sky and their powerful empire was destroyed in the Enorok Desert, but a few have survived as liches to this day.

Today's wizards and warlocks want to advance to Netheril Arcanists and get in touch with the ancient arcanist skills. They can only explore the lost Netheril ruins and find the records of the arcanists' long-standing mysteries, or Visit the living descendants of the Arcane Empire - the Shademen and the Halrua.
