Chapter 857 Artifact
The essence of magic items is tools. This has nothing to do with their value, nor does it matter what effects they have or how powerful they are.
Without a user, the effectiveness of a tool will drop significantly. Even a self-aware, intelligent magic weapon like the Red Governor can only exert at most one-third of its power if there is no user.
Even lower.
But even if Pei Renli even used super magic, the orb itself would still not be damaged, because judging from the abilities displayed by the aura and water dragon, this thing must be at least an epic magic item, and it must at least be
Which is the top category of epic magic items?
Epic and legendary magic items require specific methods of destruction, and the method of destruction is different for each individual.
Some need to be trampled by the four elemental gods, some need to be placed in the body of a demigod, some need to be corrupted by the Styx in the abyss, etc.
This is not something that can be destroyed simply by brute force, so Pei Renli can do it without any scruples.
It’s just that the surrounding environment may indicate that it’s not possible…
Then Perrenli drove the magic boat to put out the fire in a literal sense, and finally put out the forest fire that spontaneously ignited due to the high temperature, and then he and Ravna returned to the Demon King's City.
As for Scale Armor Sky?
Anyway, Pei Renli didn't see it, so he felt that it might have been blown apart by the scorching waterfall. He would just send a team of lizardmen over to search for the fragments. Anyway, Pei Renli didn't care too much about the survival of that thing.
But having said that, what is the power of this orb...
You have to identify it bit by bit yourself. The abilities displayed by elven magic items are not necessarily all.
He had just walked into the Demon King's Castle and was planning to report the situation to his wife and adults, but then he saw Michelle and Camilla peeping out in the corridor.
"What are you doing?"
"Waiting for you, you obviously asked us to come."
Pei Renli slapped his forehead and he forgot about this incident.
Before setting off, Pei Renli asked the maid golem to notify Michelle and Camilla to come. He originally thought it wouldn't take much time, but he was so excited to explore the scale sky that he simply forgot about it.
"I just heard that a big red light appeared in the south. Could it be that something fell from the sky?"
"Don't worry, that's me using the legendary spell."
“…..”
Pei Renli always said extraordinary things in an understatement.
Not in a hurry to make an appraisal anyway, Pei Renli let Michelle and Camila enter the reception room, and then Ravna asked the android maid to bring the hammer she found in the maze in the morning from the office.
He put this thing on the table:
"Look, is this a magic item made by a priest?"
"Do you have any misunderstandings about priests? If the magic weapons are not commonly used by priests, they must be made by priests."
Just like people always think that the staff must be made by mages, the mace is the most commonly used weapon by priests, so it must be a magic weapon made by priests. This is a kind of prejudice.
In fact, there are quite a lot of wands made by priests, and Pei Renli's lightning staff is actually a magic item made by priests.
"No, do you think I am such a superficial person? Mainly because I went to the maze in the morning, and this hammer there..."
After briefly talking to Michelle and the others about the performance of the hammer, Pei Renli added another sentence.
"After that, this thing changed back to what it is now. I can only confirm that it is an ordinary magic weapon by identifying magic items, and I can't get its true capabilities at all."
"When you put it that way, it sounds a bit like an artifact."
One of the characteristics of the artifact is that outsiders cannot use it or even touch it.
For example, the God of Justice Tyr's artifact, the Sword of Truth, is a legendary holy sword in the hands of Tyr's followers, but in the hands of outsiders, it is just the most common steel sword available in a blacksmith shop for a few silver coins.
, the kind that no adventurer with a bit of money would take a second look at.
For things related to theology, pastors are the most reliable, so Perrenli asked Michelle and Camilla to come over and take a look.
Camilla picked up the mace, as if to carefully identify whether the handle was engraved with information such as a name or the manufacturer.
But there was nothing. Pei Renli also looked at this part, as if it was just a hammer with a bit of enchantment, but far from being awesome.
"I can feel the power, but I can't activate it either."
Camilla was very confused and handed it to Michelle. The moment Michelle touched the hammer, a layer of aura as warm as the sun illuminated the reception room.
This made Michelle stunned.
"This seems to have been created by our priests of the Dawn Lord..."
She closed her eyes, trying to feel the power, but after a few seconds she opened her eyes and shook her head:
"No, it rejected me."
"So you are completely unable to determine its origin?"
Camilla shook her head and said that our priest who is not a virgin has nothing to do with it.
Michelle thought for a while and asked:
"Who was the original owner of the maze you went to?"
"The former principal of the University of Magic."
"A character who spans hundreds of years..."
The former president of the Magic University was born during the time of the God-killing Demon King Balam. It has been almost seven hundred years now. With such a long time span, it is difficult to find the original owner of the things he collected.
But Michelle still thought of something, she said:
"Our church was once attacked by Balam. A lot of magic items and information were lost at that time. I can't be sure exactly what was lost. This hammer may be a product of that period. Can you stimulate its ability?
?"
"No, except for the time when I faced undead creatures, it usually doesn't react at all in my hands."
"Then I can't confirm what it is. Our priest has indeed made many hammers. If you find it useful, just use it. Maybe it will react when you encounter undead creatures."
Countless magic items were lost to various churches during the period of the God-killing Demon King Balam, many of which are missing, and some are still circulating in the market.
But unless it is something particularly important, priests will not deliberately take it back. After all, hundreds of years have passed and the owners have changed by countless people. At this time, you come to the door and say that the thing in your hand is ours. It really doesn't matter.
People will obey.
Besides, priests don't care much about these. If it is a valuable theological book, they will indeed recycle it at all costs. This is not necessary for most magic items.
But then again, Pei Renli is a mage who uses a mace made of wool. Doesn’t the Red Governor sound good?
He has no need for melee combat. The Red Governor's transformation ability is enough to cover it. Hanging a hammer on his waist is really unnecessary. Even if he faces the undead in the future, the Flame Guide's own Sunfire Explosion and Sunfire Ray
Isn't it a better choice? Why go up and swing the hammer.
He was just curious about the details of this thing, and had no intention of using it for himself. Since Michelle couldn't tell, he could just throw it into the warehouse and eat ashes.
——Boom
As soon as I made this decision, I heard someone knocking on the door.
But knocking on the door was just a courtesy. The person who knocked on the door opened the door and came in without waiting for Pei Renli to answer.
The first thing that caught his eye was his body that looked like an endless starry sky, and then he saw a pair of oversized butterfly wings.
"I heard Ravna say that you are here and I have something to ask you... What are you doing?"
Lord Black Butterfly is still the spirit envoy, and the spirit envoy really doesn't regard him as an outsider at all. Lord Black Butterfly lives in Pei Renli, and almost treats Demon King's City as his home.
Michelle and Camilla immediately stood up to say hello, a little trepidation. Even without talking about the demigod level of the Supreme Heavenly Lord, the Black Butterfly Lord has a very good relationship with the Mother of the Earth Shangtia and the Lord of the Dawn Lathander.
"I was studying this hammer. I found it in the maze this morning."
Lord Black Butterfly hummed, lowered his head, picked up the mace on the coffee table and looked at it.
"Isn't this the Dawn Teller?"
"you know?"
"etc!"
Michelle, who had just relaxed a little, immediately jumped up:
"Dawn Speaker! Those are the weapons of my lord!"
"Yes, it's what Lathander likes to use the most."
Lord Black Butterfly also said something incredible in a very calm tone.
"But you mortals probably don't know that there are many Dawn Tellers in Lathander, and sometimes they are given to the church to be used as holy objects."
Michelle was so shocked that she felt her eyes were about to pop out of her sockets.
"So, it is a high-level artifact?"
"Well, it's almost the same. It's a divine weapon, but it can't be said to be advanced."
Lord Black Butterfly handed the mace to Michelle, who almost fell to her knees.
During the time of the God-killing Demon King Balam, various churches did lose a lot of things, but Michelle really didn't expect that even the sacred objects were lost. Now there is no record of the sacred objects.
