Chapter 278: Behind
"As if you know what I'm going to do, how do you know that this decade isn't a long time for me?" Lu En asked rhetorically.
"I don't know, but what I do know is that if the plan against the empire has been implemented for less than ten years, then there is basically no possibility of success, that's all." Medici remained calm, even if he had only one head left.
"Very clever judgment, are there any last words? I'm not keeping your head for small talk. Lu En raised his head and looked into the other's eyes.
He is worthy of a knight, he really can't see any panic, and his inner firmness is amazing.
You know, even if you can maintain the spirit state after death, it is equivalent to death, resurrection is impossible, no matter what, the soul will gradually lose its memory, even if the spirit body is not dispersed, consciousness and thinking will gradually disappear, this is irreversible, and it will only remain for a period of time at most when you become a spirit body.
"I don't need a last word, I died in battle, the last battle of a warrior is a last word, I can force a king to do it himself, my record is enough to glorify my family, after I die, my soul will ascend to the heavenly realm, and enjoy eternal peace, I am a saint, the gods themselves canonized me, even the River Styx can't bind my soul, and the king of hell is even more impossible."
"What's the point of the soul living? Besides, are you sure you can live? You know, it seems to me that you are just as miserable as the souls in the River Styx, they will be erased and then disappear, and you ...... Not even a chance to kill memories. Lu En said.
"It's hard for me to imagine that your words are not big words, no one can block the guidance of the heavenly realm, if you can really do it, then you will have been on the church's wanted warrant a long time ago." William Medici's tone was not flustered.
Even the Great Master has no ability to prevent the souls of the saints from ascending to the Heavenly Realm, and if he can do so, the power of the Church will probably be suppressed by him to death.
The Great Gurus still had the academic school at the time, and the power was not inferior to that of the Church, but they still couldn't do it.
There may be some special skills ꓹ that can do this, but those people have long been marked as wanted by the church, and they have almost killed those who should have been killed.
Therefore, Medici did not believe that the king in front of him could do it, the power of the heavenly realm was beyond the ordinary, and it was enough to be comparable to hell, almost all monarchs were extremely dependent on the power of the realm of hell, this was not only their talent, but also something they could control since childhood, and it was impossible to use the power of the realm to intercept the heavenly realm and receive the soul, so it would definitely trigger the instinctive resistance of the celestial realm.
Coming to hell, the human race has already planned everything, even if a certain king raids the waterworks and kills the garrison ꓹ, then the selected generals will almost certainly be able to return to the heavenly realm ꓹ and report all the information truthfully.
For example, the current fire djinn is impossible to hide.
Humans have never been a reckless race, on the contrary, they have been perfectly arranged at every step.
Therefore, Medici is not afraid, on the contrary, he is already waiting for the other party to die with him, and it will definitely not be long.
But Lu En smiled.
He lifted the other's head and grabbed Medici's body with the mage's hand.
Then, the gate of the realm opened, and he stepped out of hell and returned to the mortal world.
Immediately after that, there was another teleportation.
He came to a dark-skinned man, who was reading hungrily, his eyes swollen like light bulbs, his eyes were blank, and his face was withered, as if he had stayed up for ten days and ten nights.
It was the alchemist Lieta.
"Here, the saint you want, alive, you can refine the holy relics yourself." Lu En said casually.
Isn't it the most wanted criminal for the church?
Said the same as who did not.
"Alive? Saint! As soon as Rieta closed the book, the whole person stood up at once! Like a vicious beast that has found food!
Then Lu En watched him fall to the ground the same way he came, and he was out of breath all of a sudden.
Lu En originally thought that he was too excited and had not slept for too long, so he fainted, but he shook the other party, pinched the middle of the person, and found that Lieta was not awake, so he used magic to make a check.
"! Cerebral hemorrhage!? Don't die! ”
Not to mention how Lieta was rescued, the current Wraith and Black Crystal are standing outside the settlement of Anliu in a daze.
When Lu En came back, he dropped them here.
The two of them looked at each other and decided to stand where they were and wait for Lu En.
The people who are not familiar with the place of life, and the people who brought them over turned their heads and disappeared, but they didn't think about chasing, chasing a magic 9, and they would only do it if their brains were broken.
Then wait, anyway, for Sombra, even if it is standing in place for a hundred years, it is nothing, and it can even be said to be very enjoyable, for example, many large earth elements, such as some mountain spirits, will lie in place, motionless for thousands of years, and there will even be ordinary people who will plow the land on their bodies, farm, build houses, and live generation after generation.
Just wait.
——————————
While Lu En's side was in action, the Gray Lady was on the stargazing platform in the imperial capital.
The sky was vast, and a faint smoke drifted on the horizon, bringing a hint of haze to the morning light.
She was finishing a night of stargazing and was still packing up her equipment.
The Observatory is the core of the Golem made by Daedalus, and it is also the energy node of the Level 10 Golem 'Atheism'.
At the same time, it also serves as a laboratory for academic leaders, including the research results of the academic school over the millennium, whether it is the Three Ring Council, many university colleges, or various research institutes, studios, or independent researchers funded by the academy, their valuable results are stored in the observatory.
One of Daedalus's hobbies in his spare time is stargazing, using a series of mysterious devices to observe the movement between the stars, and even to calculate the distance between himself and the stars.
Looking up at the starry sky and witnessing its composition, you can hear the stars whispering the secrets of the universe and destiny, as long as you can unravel the mysteries that originated from the stars.
Whether it's the sky during the day or the sky at night, it's the same for the Gray Lady, who can clearly see the trajectory of the stars in the sky.
The stars are not eternal, they act on their own, just like a spinning top will slowly change its position when it rotates, and when it is running, there will be a slight "deviation", the elven sages have long known that the operation mode of stars and planets is not just a coincidence, with the passage of time, the arrangement of the stars is also constantly changing, which will lead to the change of the position of the stars, and the starry sky will gradually turn around, circulating.
A mortal may not be able to notice this kind of change in his life, but this change does exist, and it is called the time difference, and it takes about 30,000 years for the starry sky to complete a cycle, and a cycle is called a 'big year'.
Daedalus did not believe in astrology, and although it was useful with the help of magic and other skills, he still did not trust the technique enough, and he was a staunch proponent of 'future agnosticism', and the main purpose of the observatory was to observe the climate and satisfy his hobby of stargazing.
But this is not the case for the Grey Lady, who is able to gain many revelations through astrology.
For example, tonight, she saw a lot of things.
Close your eyes and count the puzzles given by the stars, transforming them into images.
In the current empire, almost no one can use stargazing, because the magic concept inherited by the academy does not recognize such a thing as knowing the future by looking at the position of the stars, so as long as you learn the magic school founded by Daedalus, it is very difficult to learn stargazing, and you must break your own worldview.
After all, magic itself is an extremely subjective thing, and each mage has a different worldview, and their magic is different, and magic itself is based on subjective philosophical concepts.
But Lady Grey is different, as a traditional mage, a real ancient mage, she is older and older than Daedalus, she is the kind of mage who has been passed down from ancient times, has an irreproducible learning experience, and has mastered many unique secret arts, including astrology.
The astrology slowly kicks in, and the trajectory of the stars is drawn in the mind as a picture like a real illusion.
She saw it...... The flames burned in the territory of the empire, burned the filth, burned the idols of the gods, burned the churches.
Flame from ...... Alchemists, craftsmen, academic mages, and a large number of people who are no longer superstitious.
"Hoo ——!" She took a deep breath and woke up from the state of astrology, her magic almost exhausted!
Even Magic 9 can't observe the future for too long, besides, whether it's the future or not is the same thing, Daedalus has always regarded the future observed by astrology as a psychological suggestion to himself, and the real future is completely different from the real future, and Madame Gray has quarreled with him a lot about this.
"The future of the church? Why are you seeing this? Her eyes sharpened.
The future of astrology is the real future, and she has always believed in that.
But the future can be changed, and that's what she believes.
"What happens after the academy? A full-blown outbreak of the battle with the church? As Daedalus's successor, she pondered how she could take the entire power to a higher level.
Among them, the biggest enemy is the church, which can be said to be incompatible, especially when the other party actually assassinated the supreme leader of the academy, the great teacher.
Just as she was thinking, there was a knock on the door outside.
A voice said, "Your Excellency, the meeting is about to begin, please get ready." ”
Yes, now Madame Gray is the Great Mentor, because she is the leader of the entire academy and inherits the position of the Great Mentor, and this title represents that she is the "mentor" of all the people of the academy.
"I know, I'll go." She agreed, and kept the prophecy in her heart.
If you don't hide it in your heart, I'm afraid there will be something big.
Without going out, she teleported away.
The miracle that magic 9 can achieve, teleportation, completely subverts the concept of distance in space, especially the human magic 9, which only needs to go through a long period of training and practice, and with the help of massive materials, it can be built into a portal.
The place where the Gray Lady teleported was in front of the portal of the imperial capital, where she greeted a distinguished guest.
Almost every province of the empire has a portal, which is the ultimate crystallization of human wisdom, and the technology that belongs to humans alone, which cannot be imitated by elves, is the result of the efforts of the academy.
Teleportation Array, the most complex rune array in the world.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the most precious thing in the world.
It is impossible to fully analyze the composition of the teleportation array with the knowledge possessed by a single person, even if he is a magic 9 or an erudite 9, it will not work, this requires the entire empire to do its best, mobilize hundreds of thousands of people and materials, hundreds of high-level professionals with different skills, but can coordinate with each other, with some kind of difficult to achieve skills, in order to complete a fixed portal, yes, fixed teleportation, can only be teleported to a fixed location.
Even a level 9 can't see through what kind of energy is hidden in this orb obscured by light.
This is the most remarkable creation of scholars. It is protected by a layer of flowing turbulent runes, and the whole is like a beating heart, beating once a second, as if it has life.
Just looking at this activated teleportation array, you can feel the wisdom of human beings and the efforts of scholars, and the moment the teleportation array is activated, it is even more shocking than the most sacred religious ritual.
The materials required for the activation of the teleportation array will cost at least 5,000 gold coins, and after activation, 800 gold coins will be consumed for each *** holding! For every object that weighs more than 300 kg, an additional 1,000 gold is consumed!
The golden light on the array was not the brilliance of some god, it was the light of gold coins.
As the glow of the gold coin vanished, an elven woman walked through the portal.
Unlike most elves, this elf was old, gray-haired, wrinkled, and age-spotted, and even on crutches, and if it weren't for the drooping pointed ears, it wouldn't even be obvious that it was an elf known for its beauty.
