"We are on the [Matraktrie] continent? Hey hey? Isn't this an endless archipelago in the [Endless Sea]?"

Master Sandry nodded: "If nothing unexpected happens, the Endless Islands should be the fragments of the [Matricktri] continent."

Wutong was stunned by the words of the master. From what the master said, he was not very sure about it?

"No one knows whether the so-called "Endless Islands" and "Endless Sea" are the legendary continent of [Matraktri], because no one knows that after returning to the continent of Kovare, Master Vitim E. Omek summoned the royal family of the five kingdoms and the high-level existences on the continent, and revealed what they had in the meeting held at the [Cape of the Imperial Palace]..."

Master Sandry's [The Undead] fluctuations also brought some bitter smiles: "In short, after this secret meeting, Master Vitimu E. Omek stayed for a short time and disappeared mysteriously..."

The dwarf was extremely crazy about the behavior of the indigenous people in "Endlessness" showing off their long history at any time. In his opinion, those inexplicable history have nothing to do with him playing games. There is no need to popularize science to everyone, right? As long as there are a few people in the team know it, for example, a mage or one of his subordinates, his mission is enough to kill monsters blocking the way. He has a super game of hundreds of thousands in this second. How can he know everything in the game in full?

So I was impatient to take advantage of the Master's brief pause and the Invincible Hammer started to shout: "Hey! Master! What does this have to do with us? What does this have to do with this castle? Ahhhh! Can you not be crooked?"

Everyone was reminded by the dwarf and found that Master Sandry was indeed a bit crooked and had been talking about history for a long time. He was not associated with this so-called [Era Leone Fortress]. Master, you have become an undead creature, and time has lost its meaning. But for us living rookies, time is still very precious!

Master Sandry was also a little depressed by the impolite rude dwarf. He looked at him and said, "It's almost time to say it."

"..." Everyone was speechless. It seemed that the master insisted on finishing the history class.

"... Although not many people know what the temporary meeting of the Five Kingdoms held by Master Omek at [Fort Royal], after the meeting of the Five Kingdoms, the task of exploring the ruins of the [Matricktri] continent, supported by the royal families of various countries and major professional guilds, was fully launched."

Master Sandri said slowly: "Although the continents that have been discovered in the "periphery of the Kovare Continent include the elves [Erenno] continent, the giant [Zerendrik] continent, the dragon clan [Agonisson] continent, and the ancestral land of human beings. However, the danger level of these three continents is even greater than that of the North Continent [Frost Falling Old Place] that is not suitable for survival. The only continent suitable for survival is the territory of the elves. When the Kovare Continent has been divided up by various countries, opening up new territory on the ruins of the [Matraktri] continent discovered by Master Omek became the main political trend of the countries during that period."

Legend has it that the continent of Aleno, which was separated from the [Covare] continent was not originally listed as one of the five continents, but only existed as a large island. The continent of Gods [Matraktri] is one of the five continents. However, in the [Downy Battle] between the gods, the continent of Matraktri could not withstand the power of the gods. It was completely broken and sunk, so that its existence could no longer be found in the world of [Alanno], and [Alanno] was officially listed as one of the five continents.

(Note 1: Please refer to the [Five Continental Maps] in the relevant article.)

(Note 2: The North Continent [Frost Falling Old Place] is composed entirely of ice and snow, which is equivalent to the Arctic on Earth and is not suitable for ordinary life to survive. Therefore, it exists as a "continent" but is not included in one of the continents. [Erenno] The world also has the North and South Poles, so in theory, there should be seven continents and seven oceans.)

(Note 3: Related content of the Lost God Continent [Matractri], this book has not yet considered writing it. It involves too much. Our minds can't stop as soon as it gets scattered. The existing pit has been digged by me and I am a little scared. You don't want to see "The Forgotten Kingdom" appear at the 30 million words, right? Sweat~)

Except for Wutong who also listened with relish, everyone else has already started to do whatever he should do. Master Shandry, who is "good teacher", will not lose the nature of popular science because of the decrease in the audience, and will still teach and explain it tirelessly.

"The development of the [Matricktri] continental ruins was very smooth at first. The pioneering groups sent by the countries found various rare materials and precious minerals on numerous islands. Immediately afterwards, a large number of ancient ruins were discovered, and the mysterious props and technologies lost in history also reappeared in the world... The huge profits attracted a large number of explorers. In order to obtain benefits, they took violent excavations. Some ruins were destroyed, and some evil creatures that were originally imprisoned in the ruins were released, and chaos began..."

As the story was told, Master Sandri's memory became clearer and he no longer cared about whether anyone was listening to his story. He fell into deep memories: "But soon, the members of the pioneer group and the adventure group found that the passage of time on the archipelago was not consistent with the Kovare continent, and the adventure group who returned from the islands also realized that the island they arrived was not repeated..."

Looking up at Wutong, Master Sandry said with some advice: "It is precisely because the pioneers were trying to take a boat to other islands, they found that no matter where they drove the boat to the island, they could not find any other islands, just as if the island they were on was an isolated island on this vast and endless sea. Therefore, the ruins of the [Matricktri] continental ruins have the name "Endless Islands".

Wutong nodded involuntarily. Whether it is from the Covare Continent to the Endless Islands, from the Endless Islands to the Covare Continent, or even from one "Trial Island" to another "Trial Island", they all need to be connected through teleportation arrays. This increases the chance of a certain force dominating an island.

"You new generation of trialists should have noticed this, right?"

Master Sandri looked at Wutong: "Because the number of Endless Islands is too large, the recruitment of formal professionals used to explore the islands is insufficient. In order to develop the Endless Islands as soon as possible, countries and various professional guilds have adopted a strategy of sending a large number of professional apprentices to islands that have been initially explored in the Endless Islands, and further developing islands in the name of trials, so as to free up formal professionals to explore those unknown islands."

Wutong suddenly realized that this was why the player was born on the Endless Islands, but he really didn't feel the passage of time on the Trial Island and the world of the main material plane. That is, the passage of time on the Kovare continent is different. For their players, it is a 1:3 time difference, and only the time difference on this Endless Island reaches 1:10.

"When formal professionals first opened up unknown islands, they all teleported through the [Nese Formation] found on the island, which was left behind in ancient times, but the rare number of [Nese Formation] was unbearable. They could only transmit a small amount of personnel, but large-scale material transportation was not possible. The countries have a great demand for various rare raw materials and minerals produced on the Endless Islands. Therefore, in order to speed up and increase the development of the Endless Islands, the countries made a very wrong decision..."

Master Sandri's tone became "serious": "They convened a mysterious organization "Astral Words Association" that is mainly based on astrology. However, members of the mysterious organization "Astral Words Association" who is very proficient in various magic circles, used some teleportation arrays excavated from the ruins as the main axis center, and supplemented with simple magic circles made with [Nise Formation] as the blueprint, to build a huge [Endless Islands Teleportation Array Network] to connect the Endless Islands and the countries of the Kovare Continent..."

After a brief pause, Master Sandri seemed to be thinking about it, and after a while, he continued: "Now, this may be a conspiracy controlled by some people or certain forces, but time has passed, and he can no longer track down who the culprit is."

"What happened?"

Wutong asked curiously that these secrets were not information that could be seen in the library of Ao Law School.

"Smuggling! Large-scale smuggling!"

Master Sandry paused the shattered stone floor with the dead wood staff in his hand: "The ancient magic technology has been lost for too long after all. The Stars and Words Association, which lacks relevant knowledge and technology, cannot fully control the [Endless Islands Teleportation Array Network], and this incomplete teleportation Array Network also hides a huge loophole, which is that it is completely unprepared. As long as anyone obtains the right to use a teleportation array, it can be connected to the [Endless Islands Teleportation Array Network] and enters and exits any teleportation array at will!"

Why does this sound so much like an optical brain network without a firewall?

"I think you should be able to guess how much chaos a teleportation array network will cause, using the teleportation array network to invade, assassinate important people, smuggling across the border, and smuggling..."

"There seems to be a smooth road between countries. Due to the chaos and losses caused by the teleportation array network, the "Starsian Association" that presided over the construction of the [End Islands Teleportation Array Network] was implicated. A large number of [Starsian Warlocks] of the "Starsian Association" were arrested and investigated. A small number of high-level [Starsians] used the teleportation array technology they mastered in their hands to escape. The teleportation array network was destroyed and prohibited, leaving only a small number of them in the hands of the royal families of the kings and various professional guilds."

Wutong opened her mouth wide. He now knew why the mission of "Stars and Words" he received on the Trial Island has been unable to be completed. He has asked a lot about the existence of "Stars and Words and Words", but it seems that this institution has not existed on the Continent of Kovare. No news can be found, and the feelings were given to the river crab by the royal family of all countries.

Seeing Wutong's surprised expression, Master Sandri nodded slightly: "Of course, it is impossible to completely destroy it. No one knows how many people are in their hands and have the technology of teleportation array network, but they are transferred from the surface to the underground, smuggling and smuggling still exist."

After letting out a long sigh, Master Sandri's statement solved Wutong's many doubts in his heart, but after being stunned for a moment, Wutong looked at Master Sandri with resentful eyes. Do you dare to be a little bit wrong? It's not the main topic yet!

Master Sandry made two short waves of the undead words, as if he was laughing "Haha": "You may think I'm very long-winded? But if you don't understand these causes, you can't understand why we are on the Endless Island. And where did this [Era Leone Fortress] come from!"

Wutong continued to look at Master Sandri with resentful eyes: I can understand your enthusiasm for finding a partner after lying for hundreds of years, but do you dare to say it briefly? We are in a dangerous place to die, waiting for the chief task to go home. You want to tell a story, can't you wait to make a cup of tea and talk slowly after you go back?

"Okay, okay, young people are really impatient, that's what we're going to say."

Master Sandry seemed to find it interesting and perfunctory to Wutong's injured eyes: "I wonder if you have found it? Not only is the speed of time passing by different from the main material plane world. Even the islands of the Endless Islands themselves are not connected to each other?"

Wutong nodded, and he discovered that each Trial Island seemed to be the only isolated island on the vast ocean, always shrouded in the fog of sea. No matter how you take a boat, you can't find other islands that should be scattered in theory. If you are lucky, you can go back again. If you are unlucky, once you leave the waters around Trial Island and enter the sea fog that is thick like a quilt even on a sunny day, you may be lost in it and never come back.

As early as on the Trial Island, Wutong saw a player doing this. He tied some tree trunks together and took out bravely. Most of them were resurrected directly from the church on the Trial Island. A small number disappeared. They asked them, they didn't know how they were hanged, but they didn't know if there were a few lucky guys who had encountered any adventures.

"This is because the ruins of the [Matricktrie] continent, the ruins do not exist in the main material plane world of [Eberron]. The [Downhill Battle] between the gods directly crushed the continent of God and turned it into a large number of space fragments, falling into the [Astral Realm], [Shadow Realm] and the main material plane."

Wutong looked dark and heard many new terms. She chatted with the Great Druid, who had become a skeleton. The amount of information was too great.

Because he was afraid that Master Sandri would be wrong again, Wutong forced himself to ask what [Astral Realm] and [Shadow Realm] were. Anyway, these things were still too far from his level, so it would be useless to ask now and I couldn't get in touch with them at all. Anyway, Master Sandri and his group of undead druids have been abducted by him. As long as they coax them back to the Obsidian Colony, everyone will get along day and night, and there will be opportunities to study them slowly in the future.

Seeing that Master Sandrui had not mentioned Qingping Mountain and this castle, Wutong almost pounced on him and gnawed his bones.

“As for this endless island and this [Era Leone Fortress]…”

The master probably sensed Wutong's resentment and quickly jumped the progress to the part he wanted to hear: "As mentioned earlier, Master Vitimu E. Omek stayed in the Kingdom of Kannas for a short time after the Five Kingdoms Conference, and then mysteriously disappeared again, but he left a inheritance for his disciples - the secret of eternal life!"

Wutong was stunned. There were many creatures in "Endless" with long lifespans. Whether it was the dragon clan who could live for thousands of years, or the elves and dwarves who were famous for their long lifespans, they all lived longer than ordinary humans who had only lived for nearly a hundred years.

Although the stronger the profession, the longer the lifespan will be. Especially for spellcasters like mages, as their strength continues to improve, Ao Neng is constantly transforming their bodies so that they can live long enough to have more time to study more profound knowledge of the magic. For example, Zemur, a teacher who is about to celebrate his 889th birthday, saw his lively spirit, Wu Tong probably had no pressure at all for another 180 years.

However, no matter how powerful a high-level profession is, the erosion of time on the body is inevitable and reversed. This is a rule formulated by the core consciousness god and a natural rule. How can eternal life exist?

"Are you wondering about the 'eternal rebuttal'?"

Master Sandri saw Wutong's doubts and pointed Wutong with his white finger bones: "You are also a spellcaster. You should be very clear that the lifespan of a spellcaster is very long in your profession, because the spellcaster can use various secret methods to extend his life, but the life that can be extended is limited after all. Even the necromancer, who is known for playing with life and necromancers, is no exception. At most, it will live a little longer than the mages of other schools, and it is impossible to reach an eternal state."

Wutong nodded.

"But you forgot a question. Necromancers are known as the 'spokes of Death in the world'. They have more extreme means than ordinary mages to continue their lives, such as changing a body, or simply giving up on their bodies..."

The master looked at Wutong with some slightest point, because Wutong has always been present as a necromancer... Except for the necromancer, who else can control so many undead creatures?

Wutong shuddered. Change his body, take over the body, give up his body, can he become a ghost? Well, it seems that it is not impossible to think about it. Who can be sure that a mage who is not very different from Frankenstein in essence can not create an artificial body for himself, or simply turn it into a ghost?

"You should know that the wizards firmly believe in the 'Soul Immortal Theory'. In their opinion, the decayed skin is just a burden that prevents them from having more time to conduct research. It is a natural thing for them to prolong their lives through various arcane means, and no matter what it becomes, it does not matter to them."

Master Sandry looked at Wutong: "As your research on Aurora deepens, maybe one day, you will become like those lunatics, with such strange ideas, right?" (To be continued.
