"So it's normal for our wizard civilization to be at odds with the Abyss. Basically, those chaotic lunatics can't get along with either side."
Although Crete himself had never seen a demon, some of his friends had seen one, and he had some understanding of it. He had even dissected a half-pure-blooded demon. This creature was indeed powerful, but its brain was really not very useful.
“Souls are also an extremely precious resource. In the early years, demons and wizards fought a war over precious soul resources and for some other special reasons. Later, when the two were evenly matched, the demons actually began to transform.
They collected more souls by doing business, and gradually, the conflicts between them and our wizards became smaller and smaller. Now they can be regarded as semi-partners. Except for a few devils who still maintained their primitive style and caused conflicts with our wizards, most devils have become businessmen now. "
"As for the angels in heaven, it's because their bodies are more fragrant than those of demons and devils... Their skin, eyeballs, keratin, feathers, down, etc. are all first-class materials. Their blood is full of knowledge related to the light system."
Speaking of angels, Crete's eyes sparkled. Angels are rare living collections of advanced materials. The conflicts between wizards and heaven are most likely caused by wizards wantonly capturing those angels as experimental materials.
In fact, the angel was quite innocent. He was captured and dissected for no apparent reason. But this world is so unreasonable.
Taylor knew clearly that there was no right or wrong in this world. Only interests and strength were the most fundamental factors.
Finally, Crete concluded.
"It seems that we are at odds with Heaven, Abyss, and Hell, but in fact, the relationship between us and Hell is easing. The Abyss is simply a trash can, and anyone can cause trouble. Only those birdmen in Heaven are the ones who dislike us the most now. We are not to be feared by other forces."
"Those birdmen in Heaven have been spreading the ideas of their light gods. Some of them are actually quite kind, but they are too valuable. The archangels in Heaven have discussed with the great wizards. In recent years, the conflicts between us have been gradually decreasing because Heaven is freeing up its hands to deal with the Abyss and Hell. Their number one enemy is demons and devils, followed by wizards."
"Oh, yes, there is one more thing, that is the existence of dragons. In the infinite plane, dragons have already fallen. In a huge battle that is no longer explorable, the dragon god fell. Without the protection of the god, the dragons became commodities to be slaughtered. The original dragons also had the first-level life form level when they were adults. With a little effort, they can become second-level life forms."
"After losing the protection of the gods, their teeth, scales, flesh, blood, hearts, internal organs, heads, etc. all became the most valuable assets. With the vigorous hunting led by us wizards, there are only a few dragons left now. The Dragon Vein Family of our wizard civilization also developed at this time."
First-level wizards are already the backbone of wizard civilization, and their status is enough to know some things.
After roughly understanding the position of wizard civilization in the infinite plane and its relationship with other situations, Taylor nodded. Although wizard civilization is notorious, it is generally in a relatively peaceful state, a kind of dynamic balance, with mutual restraint and restriction.
The dragon was almost destroyed, and it was done by a wizard, which surprised Taylor.
After giving Taylor some time to digest this massive amount of information, Crete continued.
"The next step is the reason why this folded plane was created. The original plane was dominated by humans and gave birth to two schools of knights and magicians. It was neither too powerful nor too weak."
Crete first pointed to the continent in the middle of the folded plane and then pointed to a special space emitting white light.
"First, an archangel and his subordinates discovered that plane and began to spread their theory of the light pantheon to the humans there, influencing them to begin to believe in the light pantheon established by Heaven."
Crete moved his finger downwards, pointing to the dark space below that was emitting a black halo and said.
"Then another pure-blooded demon came with his subordinates and began to invade the plane. The two sides kept fighting. The archangel and the pure-blooded demon were seriously injured. Their own energy tore the space of that plane apart, giving rise to this folded plane situation."
Taylor nodded to show that he understood. He remembered the pure-blooded demon mentioned by Crete and couldn't help asking.
"Teacher, are there pure-blood and half-blood demons?"
"Yes." Crete said, "Angels and demons are born pure-blooded creatures. When they reach adulthood, they are at the level of first-level life forms, natural extraordinary creatures. Due to the characteristics of the abyss, there are many half-demons and mixed-blood demons that have been transformed by the abyss's aura. Pure-blooded demons are the nobility among them. They also have the ability to become first-level extraordinary life forms when they reach adulthood."
"Angels hate wizards because they have so few people, and we wizards capture them for anatomical research. Demons transform because they don't have a large population and can't withstand years of war. As for demons, well, I won't say more. You all understand."
"With their own low birth rates and the war in the infinite planes, the devils chose to transform themselves into merchants, collecting souls through various transactions. They have a strong ability to protect their lives. Heaven has gathered many vassal races, such as unicorns, holy dragons of light, elemental life forms, etc."
"Of course, we don't have that many wizards, but we have all kinds of puppet armies and stitched beast armies, plus the magical beasts we have trained, and the indigenous cannon fodder from various planes under our command, so we are not afraid of them."
But he didn't know what kind of charm that folded plane had that could make the archangel and the pure-blooded demon fight each other until both sides were seriously injured.
After listening to Taylor's doubts, Crete said.
"In fact, this incident is quite coincidental. The angels wanted to spread their faith in the God of Light, and they were bumped into by the demons at this time. As soon as the two met, they started fighting, and naturally both suffered losses, causing the entire plane to undergo a huge change and become a folded form."
"It was also thanks to the battle between angels and demons that the plane underwent such a wonderful change. During the change, a lot of precious space-related materials were added to the plane. The space power leaked from the tear in space condensed into space crystals, as well as space sand, star silver, and so on."
I didn't expect that the folding space actually had so many good things. After hearing about these precious space materials, Taylor's eyes glowed green. What he needed most now was all kinds of space knowledge and precious space materials, which would be of great help to his future.
"Thanks to the sudden increase in space materials, the humans living there have gained a special means, which is also a means that many countries will only use as a last resort."
"What is it?"
"Summon the hero!"
"ah?"
Taylor never expected that in that folded plane, the means adopted by many human countries when facing desperate situations would be to summon heroes.
This is very similar to some anime he had watched in his previous life. By summoning people from other worlds, they are blessed by the other worlds and become heroes with special abilities and abnormal growth.
Ignoring the surprise in Taylor's eyes, Crete continued talking.
"Their magic array is directional, and the creatures they summoned are at least first-level extraordinary creatures. If it weren't for a wizard being summoned there by accident, we really wouldn't have known that such a strange plane existed."
"Currently, two well-known bigwigs have set their sights on that folded plane, and we urgently need a group of backbone forces to complete the infiltration and expedition of the plane..."
“I want to join!”
Before Kerry finished speaking, Taylor had already decided to join this expedition. Whether it was the special spatial materials and knowledge of that plane or the demons and angels that might be encountered, Taylor, who was full of thirst for knowledge and curiosity, could not stop.
If he can't even take part in such a feast, then what reason does he have to call himself a wizard who explores endless knowledge and truth?
Seeing Taylor's determined look and the mental fluctuations that he couldn't help emitting, Crete smiled with satisfaction. He directly took out a special badge from his space storage ring and handed it to Taylor.
"Originally I was going to go, but I've made a new breakthrough in my research recently, so I'm afraid I can't get away. This kind of subtle change, if I relax even a little bit, will lead to the failure of my research, so I can only ask you to help me go. Even if you don't come, I will have to look for you in a few days. It's always better for our family to go."
As he spoke, Crete placed the badge in front of Taylor. He believed in the ability of his apprentice, and this opportunity was not given in vain.
"By the way, the two big guys have already controlled all the spatial fluctuations of that folded plane. When a kingdom calls for heroes, our people will be stuffed in. The position I got is to be a spy."
"Your mission is to find out the situation there, especially the situation of the archangels and the pure-blooded demons. After all, they are angels and demons. Their combat power is enough to match that of us wizards and can even surpass us in some special circumstances. The two big guys are targeting angels and demons."
"Although it is dangerous in the early stages, the rewards are also great. In exchange for this opportunity, when you come back, you must bring me 300 grams of space sand, 500 grams of star silver, two space crystals, a tube of demon blood and a tube of angel blood."
Faced with Crete's request, Taylor agreed after just a little consideration. The price was high, but Taylor firmly believed that he would gain more than he had to pay.
"Don't worry, teacher, I will definitely not let you down for the opportunity you gave me!"
