There is no doubt that Zuo Si's opening of the huge passage to the dark void attracted the attention of the gods in Faerun.
Because even if it was only for a brief moment, the powerful, chaotic and twisted mana in the dark void still made them feel terrified.
In other words, anything powerful enough to kill a god would make these guys nervous.
This is true for the evil of gods, for weapons and magic that can kill gods, and for ancient evils.
Since the gods of Faerun had the habit of convening powerful divine meetings to resolve major differences, endless quarrels and debates soon began in the Pantheon.
Because of opposition from the Goddess of Magic, the God of Knowledge, their subordinate gods and allies, and the threat from the Goddess of Poison and Disease to start a war between gods, Cyric and Shar's attempts to push for sanctions and restrictions against Zuo Si were delayed in passing.
During this time, the god of justice Tyr and his allies chose to remain neutral.
Because just as Oghma said, Zuo Si did not do anything that posed a substantial threat to Faerun, so sanctioning and restricting him simply because he possessed great power was not in line with the procedures and concepts of "justice".
He simply wanted to know more about this mortal from another dimension and where the power he possessed came from.
During this period, people like Gond, the god of craftsmen, and Li'la, the goddess of joy who was performing the duties of the goddess of wealth Waukin, also stood on the side of opposition.
Talos, the storm god and chief of the furious gods, showed great interest in the chaotic and powerful forces of the dark void.
He believed that if he could bring that power under his control, it would surpass other powerful divine powers and create a storm that could destroy the world.
Therefore, instead of wanting to join the ranks of sanctions and restrictions, he felt that he should take the initiative to introduce this force into Furen.
As expected, it encountered collective opposition from other powerful divine forces.
The God of War Tempus believes that this ability to travel through time and space at will is simply born for war. If used properly, the entire multiverse can be plunged into war.
For example, opening a passage directly connecting the Abyss and Mount Heaven, turning the original two-way bloody battle between demons and devils into a three-way melee.
In short, this chaotic god of war is happy to participate and provide assistance in anything that can provoke a war.
Of course, Zuo Si no longer cared about the commotion he had caused or the attention from the gods of Faerun.
This was his first time to travel a long distance through the dark void. At this moment, he was half-kneeling on top of a huge inverted triangle crystal stone suspended in mid-air, his clothes already soaked with sweat.
At this moment, not only was a large amount of mana in his mana pool consumed, but even the spark, the source of the planeswalker's power, seemed much dimmer due to overdraft.
exhausted!
Very, very tired! Since his physical attribute reached an astonishing thirty-three points, this was the first time Zuo Si felt that his entire body and mind were completely drained.
Before, this situation would never happen even if he didn’t sleep for several days or even a month.
Because when traveling through the dark void, one needs to maximize the power of the spark to ensure that one is not affected by the chaotic matter and mana.
If I hadn't made adequate preparations in advance, I would probably have died halfway, or I would have to jump out to an unknown time and space to take a break.
fortunately!
Zendikar is a world overflowing with magical energy.
Right now, he was like a construct golem that had fallen into hibernation due to lack of energy. He was frantically absorbing the raw magical energy from the surrounding air to charge his sparks and replenish his mana pool that had returned to zero.
One minute...
One hour...
After a cycle of sunrise and sunset, Zuo Si finally opened his eyes, slowly stood up from the cold crystal ground, and looked down at the surrounding and distant scenery.
The next second, he was deeply shocked by what he saw.
If the floating city of Plantia is a masterpiece of magical civilization, then the Zendikar plane is the wonder of nature.
Above the boundless water surface, thousands of giant rocks of various sizes were seen floating in the air in an orderly manner under the influence of primitive magic power, like floating islands.
The island is not only covered with green plants and vines, but also home to a variety of never-before-seen animals and birds.
Some islands even have rivers and waterfalls that rush down from the edge, either falling on other islands or crashing into the water below with a deafening rumble.
As for the area below the floating island, it is even more shocking that no one knows whether it is a lake or an ocean.
Fish that are three to five meters long and larger than humans can be seen everywhere, and from time to time, huge shadows over thirty, fifty or even a hundred meters long pass by underwater.
Needless to say, all this is the result of the abundant mana on the plane of Zendikar.
With the support of the ubiquitous magical energy, all creatures in this world have grown exceptionally large, and their bodies contain unimaginable power.
What’s more terrifying is that even elemental life has become exceptionally active under its influence.
In places farther away, you can even see swirling water columns rising into the sky as high as one or two thousand meters, raging wildly, sucking in everything that can be caught nearby, and then tearing them into pieces alive under the high-speed stirring of the water.
Similarly, there were earth elemental creatures rising from the ground in the mountains behind, wandering around aimlessly.
This is Zendikar!
A living world, a world where life is being born all the time, a world with abundant resources and energy enough to attract three Eldrazi titans at the same time.
Of course, such a world is not without its shortcomings. It is too chaotic, primitive and manic, and is not suitable for the birth and development of civilization at all.
To be precise, after the collapse of the ancient empire established by the Kor before the arrival of the Odrachi, there were not even a few decent cities here, and all intelligent races survived in the smallest possible tribes and villages.
Because of the abundant magical energy, everything around may "come alive" at any time.
Once the earth comes alive, it will turn into a giant earth elemental creature tens or even hundreds of meters tall;
Once the forest and trees come alive, a large number of large groups of tree people, vine monsters and the like will be born;
Once water comes to life, it will create huge waves that will flood the surrounding area, or turn into a terrible whirlpool that will crush everything; once air and wind come to life, they will form terrible hurricanes and tornadoes, causing unimaginable horrific destruction; and once fire comes to life, it will cause terrible fires and even lava eruptions.
Therefore, the residents of Zendikar have no way to establish large, stable settlements, but must be prepared to migrate at any time and anywhere.
Since it is impossible to settle in one place for a long time, it is naturally impossible to develop an agricultural civilization, let alone improve technology and advance science and technology. People can only rely on hunting, gathering and fishing to make a living.
Therefore, the indigenous civilization of this world has always remained in a very primitive state.
The only thing to be thankful for is that abundant natural resources can easily provide plenty of food, and it is easy to fill your stomach even by hunting, fishing and gathering.
For them, the real threats and challenges have never been things like disease and hunger, but the extremely dangerous and harsh living environment.
After taking a deep breath of the air in this world that was full of energy and had an incredibly high oxygen content, Zuo Si immediately cast several detective prophecy magics.
Although these spells were limited by the influence range of the land cards and could only confirm the situation within a few hundred kilometers around, the results still relaxed his tense nerves a little.
At least within the currently detectable range, there are no traces of the existence of the Eldrazi or their descendants.
"Huh - it seems that the seal has not been lifted by the clever Nissa Revane. Zendikar is safe for the time being." Zuo Si muttered in a voice that only he could hear.
"Don't take it lightly! Zendikar is huge! Perhaps the seal of the Eldrazi titans has been broken, and they are wreaking havoc on other continents." The diary couldn't help but remind him.
But Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly: "Don't worry, I will personally confirm the status of the seal before leaving the coordinates in this world."
"You mean... a trip to the Eye of Black Gold?" The diary asked with great surprise in its tone.
Because the Eye of Ugin is the key to sealing the Eldrazi, and it is also the place where the ancient planeswalkers - the spirit dragon Ugin, the vampire Sorin Markov, and the lithomancer Nahiri have set up the strongest defense.
Whether the seal is intact or has been destroyed, it means extremely high danger.
After all, from the moment he arrived in Zendikar, the enemies Zuo Si had to face were not just the natives of various time and space, but also planeswalkers who, like him, possessed sparks and the ability to travel through time and space.
"There are only two ways to find out if the Eldrazi have been released.
One is to go to the Eye of Ugin to confirm it personally, and the other is to find the culprit of the whole incident, the elven planeswalker - Nissa Revane.
Compared to looking for someone with the ability to time travel in the vast world of Zendikar, I think it would be easier to find the Eye of Ugin.
And in the process of searching, I can also collect some creatures and magic from this time and space.
Especially the magic crystal under your feet, which should have been made by the Lithomancer Nahiri.
The complex runes above are the unique dragon magic of the spirit dragon Wu Jin, which is very valuable for research..."
As Zuo Si spoke, he cast a spell to copy all the symbols that had been worn away over thousands of years and displayed them in front of him.
Without a doubt!
As the ancestor of all dragons on the plane of Tarkir, Wugin, who has lived for tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years, has mastered knowledge and magical power far beyond that of many gods.
In other words, the existence of a dragon planeswalker like him transcends that of a god.
Therefore, the skills learned in Faerun, such as [Reading Magic], [Scholar's Touch], [Language Comprehending], [Analyzing Spells], etc., can only provide some confusing and specious interpretations.
Not to mention these spells, even the Eye of Knowledge bestowed by the God of Knowledge Oghma himself can only interpret and record the words literally, and is completely unable to understand its deeper meaning and specific function.
This was true for just one hedron, not to mention the millions or tens of millions of similar objects scattered across the plane of Zendikar.
It can even be said that Ugin played a decisive role in the successful sealing of the Eldrazi.
Sorin Markov used his ability to control and create life to awaken the consciousness of the planet beneath his feet, allowing it to continuously provide sufficient energy for the seal, ensuring that the three Eldrazi could not escape.
As for the Lithomancer Nahiri, she was at best a handyman back then.
Without the magical runes carved by Wu Jin on the crystal, the crystal she had spent so much effort to carve would be of no use at all.
"Don't look at it. With your current knowledge and magic level, it is almost impossible to decipher these runes. Instead of wasting time on this kind of thing, it is better to act quickly." The diary complained in a low voice.
"I know this without you telling me." Zuo Si rolled his eyes in annoyance.
After that, he cancelled the spell and transformed himself into a giant blue dragon. He flew into the sky at a low altitude, searching for villages where possible intelligent creatures might gather.
On the world of Zendikar, there are six major intelligent races.
Among them, humans and elves (also known as fairies) throughout the multiverse are the most numerous and common land races.
In addition, there are mermaids living in the water and a special human subspecies called "Kor".
The former mermaid is not the traditional one with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish.
Instead, they are humanoid creatures with complete legs and blue skin, and can even live on land for a long time away from the ocean.
The latter is basically no different from humans, with skin as white or gray as marble, and is famous for its strong physical fitness and climbing skills.
Almost all the kor who have some magical talent can absorb energy from the environment like the lithomancer Nahiri, and then shape it into pure energy shields or weapons.
As for the last two, they are the goblins who can survive and reproduce in any harsh environment, and the vampires whose origins are mysterious.
As a person who has been involved in conspiracies and intrigues for a long time, Zuo Si feels that the vampires on Zendikar are most likely related to Sorin Markov. They might be the descendants transformed by this guy himself a long time ago.
With this doubt, he quickly flew over the mountains and soon was far away from the water.
As we continued to go deeper into the land, some creatures with different shapes and huge glowing crystal horns on their heads gradually appeared in our sight.
They are collectively called "Crystalhorns" in this world, and are ferocious beasts similar to cats.
The huge glowing horns on the top of the head are the entities formed by the highly condensed mana of this space and time.
Depending on the size of its horns, the Crystalhorn possesses a certain power to manipulate magical energy.
Especially those beast kings that are over twenty meters in size, can even release powerful positive energy magic.
At the beginning, Zuo Si wanted to use his dragon form and flying ability to capture a "Crystal Horn King" as a summoned creature.
But when we started fighting, we found that these guys were much more difficult to deal with than we had imagined.
Especially their IQ, which is no worse than that of humans, and they know how to use their advantages.
Not only that!
During battle, it can also draw energy from the surrounding air and the sunlight above its head to continuously strengthen itself and repair injuries.
In other words, unless you use an extremely powerful attack to kill it in one go, or wait until the sun sets and night falls, the Crystal Horn King can keep fighting.
"Damn! This guy's fighting power and difficulty are almost catching up with an ancient dragon. No! That's not right! It should be an ancient dragon. Ordinary ancient dragons don't have such strong recovery ability." Zuo Si said as he looked down at the ferocious beast on the ground with a greedy look in its eyes.
"Isn't this a matter of course? Zendikar's magical energy is far more abundant than Faerûn's, and it is not subject to any form of restriction. It is not surprising that stronger magical creatures will be born. It's just like the dragon kings who traveled through the low-magic world of Krynn, who are much larger and more powerful than the dragons born locally."
The diary directly tells the secrets behind it.
Just as it describes, the more powerful the world is, the more likely it is to give birth to terrifying creatures that are so powerful that they can suffocate people.
Because the surrounding environment is full of magical energy and life energy, it will provide unimaginable huge help to its growth.
Even if they are the same species, the difference between growing up in a high magic world and a low magic world can be quite shocking.
The former is like a child who gets adequate nutrition from childhood and will naturally grow exceptionally tall, while the latter is like a malnourished child and will inevitably be much shorter.
"Well, it seems I have to use some other means."
As he spoke, Zuo Si instantly activated his voter ability and first injected a bunch of terrible viruses, bacteria and toxins into the Crystal Horned Beast King.
Then he started with a set of necromancy magic such as [Energy Absorption], [Weakness Ray], [Blindness], [Exhaustion Ray], [Curse], [Mindlessness], [Weakness], etc. that could weaken the enemy.
Anyway, the Crystalhorn King does not have the ability to fly. Apart from the huge crystal horn on its head that can release some elemental attacks, it has basically no means of long-range attack. It can only watch the enemies above its head complete one complicated spell after another, while it becomes weaker and weaker in the face of these magics.
Finally, it could no longer bear it and let out a roar of anger and unwillingness.
"roar!!!!!!!"
Even those who cannot understand animal language can feel the indescribable frustration from the roar.
There is no way, this is the advantage of having air superiority.
I can fly and you can't, so you can only stay on the ground and passively take the beating. Moreover, I can hit you when I want and leave when I want, and you have no way to stop me at all.
Whether in the world of technology or the world of magic, whoever controls the air will have the absolute initiative.
After casting all the spells, Zuo Si raised his mouth and revealed a sinister smile. He didn't care whether the beasts on the ground could understand what he said. He said in a playful tone: "Don't worry, I won't kill you. On the contrary, I'm helping you escape the impending disaster. You must know that once the seal is broken, the three extremely powerful Eldrazi Titans will start to devour the entire world. Even you can't escape unscathed."
"roar!!!!!!!"
The Crystal Horned Beast King obviously did not appreciate it, and he suddenly swung out a golden spear of light from the horns formed by energy crystals.
But unfortunately, although this thing is called "Light Spear", it is not really as fast as light. It is more like a polymer of positive energy, and its flying speed is only two or three times faster than that of ordinary throwing weapons. How can it possibly hit a dragon with the ability to fly?
Zuo Si, maintaining the form of a blue dragon, simply raised his altitude a little bit, and let the light spear pass by below, then fell on the ground behind with a loud bang.
The place hit by the light spear exploded immediately and was repeatedly ravaged by the positive energy storm.
"Alas - verbal persuasion is not suitable for me. It's easier to knock him out physically."
After saying that, Zuo Si immediately accelerated and dived down, flapping his wings at lightning speed and making a standard dragon wing flap.
The Crystal Horn King had no time to react due to being hit by a DBUFF, and his head was hit hard on the ground.
Bang! Without any surprise, it lost its balance on the spot, and its huge body fell to the ground sideways.
这还不算完！ 一击得手之后，左思得理不饶人，轮起粗壮的尾巴又是一记扫尾，把刚想要挣扎着站起来晶角兽王又给干趴下了。
最后，他整条龙扑上去利用强壮有力的爪子将对方死死按在地上。
尽管在体型上，晶角兽王明显比老年蓝龙更大一些，正常来说贴身肉搏应该占便宜才对。
可左思显然不会玩什么公平决斗，所以从一开始就给自己加了许多增加基础属性和战斗经验的神术、魔法。
双方一个遭到了削弱、一个则得到了强化，因此基础属性方面左思显然是要高出一截。
再加上【石肤术】、【高等法师护甲】、【铁甲咒】、【防护能量伤害】等一系列防护系魔法的加持，晶角兽王连咬上一口、爪上一下都费劲。
虽然它拼尽全力从头顶的阳光中汲取正能量来恢复自身，可左思却十分阴险的张开双翼挡住了头顶的太阳。
最终，晶角兽王在多重折磨下一点一点丧失反抗能力，结果失去意识去陷入深度昏迷。
左思也趁机恢复人类形态，掏出一张空白卡牌，将其制作成召唤生物。
【生物牌：野兽——晶角兽君王】
【LV7白色卡牌（可升级）】
【卡牌品质：珍贵】
【效果：召唤一头晶角兽君王为旅法师服务。
它不仅拥有出色的近战肉搏能力，而且还可以通过巨大的结晶巨角操控正能量对目标发起进攻，同时从阳光中汲取正能量为自己极其盟友治疗伤势（治疗对象数量越多、效果越差，反之则效果越好），强化基础属性（力量、敏捷和体质各加二）。
每有一张能够产生白色能量的地牌生效，晶角兽君王都将获得额外强化（治疗能力增强，三项基础属性额外加一）。
当强化层数达到四十层之后，该生物将完成一次超级进化，变得几乎无法被击败】
【使用该卡牌需要支付二十五点白色法力值，或者二十五点通用法力值】
【当召唤出来的晶角兽君王被杀死后，该卡牌自动进入墓地等待重生，时间为九十天】
超级进化？
几乎无法被击败？ 看着这两个词汇，左思摸着下巴陷入了沉思。
因为这是他第一次见到有卡牌上出现这种描述。
通过刚才的战斗，他已经意识到晶角兽王虽然也有血肉之躯，但本质上就是个纯粹的正能量生物。
所以不出意外的话，其进化必然是朝着不断强化正能量方面发展。
难道最终的进化形态是变成纯粹的高浓缩能量形态？ 那样的话，的确很难被击败。
因为除非使用更加强大的负能量对其进行中和，不然受伤速度还不一定有恢复的速度快。
总之，这是一张强力的“奶妈”卡牌，弥补了召唤生物系列卡牌中的最后一个短板。
有了晶角兽君王的加入，像板甲碾破兽、撼地象、欧兰黎多头龙这类体型巨大、生命力顽强、破坏力惊人的巨兽，终于不用再担心会被敌人用数量活生生的拖垮，而是可以肆无忌惮的横冲直撞。
“难怪那么多旅法师都喜欢造访赞迪卡，这里果然遍地都是宝藏呢。”左思摆弄着手中的卡片喃喃自语道。
就在他打算启程继续寻找村落的时候，突然看到不远处的森林里突然闪过一道黑影。
有人？
左思加持了真知术的双眼瞬间透过茂密的树林，锁定了一个身高超过两米的硕壮人类。
只见这家伙拽着一根发光的绳索像“人猿泰山”一样，在一颗颗巨树之间荡来荡，没过一会儿功夫就跳了出来。
白色的头发、灰色的皮肤，一身不知道用什么动物皮革制成的简陋盔甲，很明显是赞迪卡时空的寇族。
当他看到地上与晶角兽君王交战留下的焦土时，脸上顿时露出震惊和难以置信的表情，同时眼神中也充满了敬畏之色。
毕竟任何赞迪卡的土著居民都知道，一头晶角兽君王意味着什么。
大部分村落在发现自己的生活区域内有这样的巨兽出没，都会毫不犹豫选择迁徙，而不是尝试着将其驱离或是消灭。
别说小村落了，就连那几座为数不多的大城市也不敢轻易去刺激一头晶角兽君王。
否则后果跟招惹撼地象这种拥有毁灭性力量的巨兽并没有太大区别。
出于对强者的敬意，这名寇族男子缓缓放下手中的武器，张开双臂做了一个比较奇怪的半蹲姿势。
很显然，他张开双臂是为了表示自己没有武器，而下蹲则是表达没有要发起进攻的意思，都属于非常容易理解的肢体语言。
左思则单数抚胸略微欠了欠身进行还礼。
两人就这样在一言不发的情况下，完成了第一步接触。
由于都意识到对方没有敌意，所以他们俩不约而同的向前走了几步，一直到距离缩短到不足两米才停下来。
寇族人先开口发出了一些奇怪的音节，左思则尝试着使用了几种自己掌握语言打招呼。
结果他们谁也没听懂对方在说什么。
无奈之下，左思只好给自己加持了一个【巧言术】，开始借助魔法的力量学习一种全新的语言。
经过大概二十分钟左右驴唇不对马嘴的交流，他基本搞懂了寇族语的发音、语法和大部分经常会用到的词汇。
最终在这名寇族人目瞪口呆的注视下，他终于用寇族语说出了一句：“你好，陌生人，我的名字叫索斯，如果不介意的话，能带我去距离这最近的村落或者城市吗？”
“你……你会说我们的语言？！”寇族人震惊的长大了嘴巴。
“刚刚跟你学会的。”左思面带微笑的回答道。
“刚才？跟我？你该不会是在开玩笑吧？”寇族人明显有点不太相信。
毕竟在赞迪卡，寇族也算是历史比较悠久的种族，甚至建立过一个屹立在天空之上的庞大帝国，差一点就完成了一统赞迪卡的丰功伟业。
所以寇族语是所有种族中最复杂、最严谨、词汇量和语法最复杂的语言，没有之一。
一般人第一次接触寇族语，起码也要两三个月才能勉强进行日常对话。
“你觉得我有必要开这种玩笑吗？”
左思指着周围已经化作焦土的战场反问道。
瞬间！
寇族人沉默了。
因为他非常清楚，一个能够击败乃至赶跑晶角兽君王的人会有多么强大。
这样的人的确也没有撒谎的必要。
最终，寇族人将其认定为是某种神秘魔法的作用，赶忙回应道：“好吧，我为自己的怀疑向您道歉，陌生的人类强者。如果不介意的话，能告诉我原本把这片森林当成领地的晶角兽君王去哪了吗？这对我和整个部落来说都非常重要。”
“它被我驱赶到了很远的地方，应该再也不会回来了。”
左思迅速给出了一个比较模糊的回答。
在遇到第一个旅法师之前，他打算继续隐藏自己旅法师的身份。
原因很简单！ 赞迪卡可不是从未有旅法师造访的费伦，本土就有好几个点燃火花的旅法师。
为了避免不必要的麻烦，还是先避暴露的比较好。
可如果要是不小心碰到，那么从见面的那一刻起，双方就能感受到对方体内存在的火花，所以压根也就没有隐藏的必要。
“驱赶走了？那可太好了！谢谢你。”
寇族人立刻喜上眉梢，满脸都是毫不掩饰的兴奋与感激，并且主动解释道：“我们还一直担心这头晶角兽君王会把村子视作自己领地的一部分，然后发起攻击呢。
现在终于可以安心了，不用整天提心吊胆准备向更远的地方迁徙。
要知道最近两年也不知道怎么回事，总感觉元素的活跃程度正在成倍提高，想要找到一块相对安全的地方定居可不那么容易。
如果举族迁徙的话，说不定会在野外遭到那些该死的吸血鬼袭击。
哦，对了，你可以叫我基沙。
如您所见，我是一名战士兼猎手，平日里负责巡视周围可能对村子造成威胁的猛兽跟怪物。”
“如果不介意的话，能带我去你的村子看看吗？”左思提出了一个要求。
自称基沙的寇族人二话不说，立刻大笑着点了点头：“当然没问题。我们的村子最欢迎你这样的强者和勇士，如果你愿意甚至可以在我们的村子定居。走吧，正好我也要把晶角兽君王被赶走的好消息告诉长老，让大家不用在考虑迁徙的事情了。”
As he spoke, Kishā picked up the weapon on the ground again, then opened his arms and through some unknown magic or innate ability, condensed the energy into a glowing rope, and threw it hard onto the treetops high above.
The next second...
His whole body was swinging in the woods with his feet off the ground.
Needless to say, using ropes to move quickly through woods and high ground with large elevation differences is the Kou people's specialty, and can be said to be a racial talent.
"Something like transmutation magic? Interesting!"
Zuo Si muttered something quietly, then cast the flying spell on himself and followed closely behind.
After about half an hour, after crossing two mountains and a huge floating lake shaped like a bowl, they finally successfully landed on an island hundreds of meters above the ground.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, Zuo Si saw a row of wooden walls about five or six meters high in front of him.
Because the plants and trees on Zendikar are extremely large and lush, "saplings" that are ten meters tall and have a diameter larger than the waist circumference of five adult men are almost everywhere.
Therefore wood must be a more readily available building material than stone.
Take the Ko village in front of us for example. The houses, walls, sentry towers, barns, etc. are almost all made of wood. A Ko man standing guard on a high tower saw the two and immediately shouted at the top of his voice: "Hey! Jisha! Who is the human behind you? The elders said that it is not allowed to bring strangers back to the village casually."
"The man behind me is the powerful spellcaster who drove away the Crystal Horn King! He is not a stranger! He is the benefactor of our village!" Kisha introduced proudly.
"What? Drive away the Crystalhorn King!" The voice of the Ko people on the high tower suddenly rose eight octaves.
"That's right! I saw with my own eyes that the place where the Crystalhorn King often appeared has been completely turned into a scorched earth. It must have been a fierce battle. Well, stop talking nonsense and quickly inform the elders. We have to celebrate tonight."
After saying that, Jisha ignored the reactions of his fellow tribesmen and took Zuo Si directly over the wall and into the village.
Yes!
It's about climbing over the wall, not going through the door.
Because this village has no door at all, all the Ko people have to rely on the magical ability to create energy ropes to enter and exit.
Unlike the expected primitive and barren world, Zuo Si discovered after entering that although the Zendikar plane did not have a strong civilization, advanced technology and productivity, the ubiquitous magical power filled everything.
Especially the Ko people, whether they are old people, women or children, they can all master and control some magical powers to some extent.
Using these primitive spells, they molded different materials into various shapes, even weaving plant fibers into relatively rough cloth, and used fire elements to forge ores and metals.
Some spears, axes and javelins that look very simple are actually genuine magical items.
The hunting fork is not only sharp, but can also release strong electric current. One strike can make a herbivore on Earth the size of an African elephant lose its ability to resist and be slaughtered at will.
What is the High Magic World?
That's it!
Even without any need to learn anything, the natives of Zendikar can still acquire the ability to cast spells as naturally as breathing.
With a little training, some elite kor can shape energy into the form of shields or weapons.
This was perfectly demonstrated in a group of teenagers undergoing combat training.
In Faerun, they can at least be classified as LV5 warriors and LV5 warlocks.
In other words, any kor warrior is equivalent to a professional with a total level of LV10 in Faerun.
Although the number of spells they master is a little smaller and the types are relatively simple.
As the village was not big, the two of them soon arrived at a two-story wooden house, one after the other.
A little boy who looked only twelve or thirteen years old was standing in his yard, wielding a machete that was more than one meter tall. In the blink of an eye, he dismembered an unknown animal weighing about two or three hundred kilograms without even getting a drop of blood on his body or hands.
The skillful movements and amazing strength gave people a strong sense of incongruity no matter how they looked at it.
But when the boy saw Kisha, he immediately dropped the machete in his hand and rushed over excitedly: "Dad!"
"Hahahaha! My dear son! How about it, did you miss me?"
Kisha laughed and lifted the boy high onto his strong shoulders.
The boy did not answer his father's question. Instead, he stared at Zuo Si and asked with a slightly curious tone: "Dad, who is this human?"
"He is the hero who helped us drive away the Crystalhorn King. I was planning to take him to see the elders." Kisha answered without thinking.
"Drive away the Crystalhorn King? Him?" The boy's eyes revealed strong doubt.
Because in his inherent cognition, having a strong body and developed muscles like his father is proof of strength.
How could a "skinny little monkey" like Zuo Si, who looked not as strong as himself, defeat a mobile "natural disaster" like the Crystalhorn King that could easily destroy a village? Jisha noticed this and explained with a smile: "This Lord Soth is a spellcaster who can control the omnipresent mana. He is different from Dad, a warrior and hunter who relies on his body and strength to make a living."
"Spellcaster? Like Aunt Elena?" The boy couldn't help but continue asking.
"Well, that's about right. But your Aunt Elena is a healer, so her way of manipulating mana and its properties should be a little different. Anyway, Lord Soth is a very powerful man, you have to respect him, got it?"
After saying that, Kishā put the boy down from his shoulders and reached out his big hand to touch the latter's head.
After he finished all this, he turned to Zuo Si and said, "Sir, this is my son. He has never left the village since he was a child, so he knows nothing about the outside world and is not very good at speaking. Please forgive me."
Zuo Si smiled and shrugged his shoulders. "It doesn't matter. Children say whatever they want. And compared to those cunning people who smile but hide daggers, I still prefer the directness and frankness of children."
Jisha nodded in agreement: "What you said makes a lot of sense. Since the elders haven't sent anyone yet, why don't you just have a simple meal at my house?"
"Okay, thank you for your help."
Zuo Si found a wooden chair in the yard and sat down, watching the father and son put large pieces of meat and some unknown plant roots into a stone pot to stew, and then added some salt and seasonings such as herbs after the pot boiled.
It didn't take long for the meal to be ready.
There is no staple food, only large pieces of meat to fill you up and soft and sticky plant roots like cassava and potatoes.
As for the taste...
It can only be said that it was cooked and barely swallowable.
It’s not delicious, but it’s not bad either.
