"It is said that parents are true love, children or something is just an accident, I used to just talk about playing, but I didn't expect it to be true."

After perceiving Alice's father's purpose, Merlin thought with some sadness in his heart.

Necromancy is a standard black sorcery, a higher sorcery involving the Abyss and Necromancy, and the effect of sorcery is resurrection.

And it's still a pretty rare one. Resurrection.

In this world, the truth that people cannot be resurrected after death is only for mortals, but not necessarily for the transcendent, and witchcraft that can resurrect the dead is rare, but it is not absent.

For example, Cynthia had prepared for Merlin for a long time to use the elven race's world tree to reincarnate the elves.

However, in fact, in fact, in fact, these witchcraft are not real resurrection techniques, and they all have a premise for resurrecting the dead, that is, the souls of the dead have not yet entered the River Styx.

In this world, the definition of death is not actually just physical death as in Merlin's previous life, even if a person is dead, and the wizards on the mysterious side are more inclined to call the annihilation of the soul death.

For ordinary people, when the body dies, the soul loses its support, and it will soon be summoned by the River Styx, and after the soul falls into the River Styx, then the person will naturally die.

But for wizards, the Styx, which ordinary people's souls can't resist, summons them to hold out for a while longer, and as long as they regain a body in this time, then they can naturally continue to live.

As for how to regain a physical body, there are many ways to do this.

The wicked ones will just find a lucky one to be reborn, while the kinder ones will choose to reincarnate their bodies.

As long as you reach the realm of high-level wizards, you can come into contact with some witchcraft that recreates the body, such as the human body training in alchemy, the reincarnation of the lich in necromancy, the blood-dripping rebirth potion in potions, and so on.

Theoretically, as long as the soul is not extinguished, then the high wizards can continue to resurrect and continue to survive.

And this is actually the principle of the so-called resurrection, which is not so much a resurrection, but a soul-level transplant.

It's just that Alice's mother has been dead for many years, and her soul is naturally long gone, so if you want to resurrect her, the general resurrection witchcraft is naturally impossible, and you can only use the legendary truth. Resurrection.

As far as Merlin knew, really. The only and biggest difference between resurrection and normal resurrection is the process of conjuring.

The soul is gone, and if you want to be resurrected, you naturally need to summon the soul first, but the conjuring of the soul in this world is not a simple matter.

As I said before, in this world, there are only three places where the soul finally returns, the good people ascend to the kingdom of heaven and the wicked fall into the bottomless abyss, and the ordinary people who are not good or bad enter the River Styx, waiting to be reincarnated in the River Styx.

It's just that none of these three places are easy to mess with, the Heavenly Divine Kingdom belongs to the Lord of the Flames, and the Endless Abyss is naturally controlled by the Abyss Consciousness, and the last Styx looks ordinary, but it is actually the one with the deepest water.

Legend has it that the first day the creator created the world was to create this river Styx that runs through the Three Realms, and then the abyss, the human world, and later the astral realm that became the abode of the gods.

And the creator awakened the consciousness of the River Styx early, turning it into a living river, and the most well-known image of the consciousness of the River Styx is the skeleton ferryman wearing a shabby gray hooded cloak and rowing a dilapidated boat on the River Styx all day long.

Well, that is, the god of death who extradited the souls of the dead in folklore.

If the Styx, the Abyss, the Human World, and the Astral Realm are regarded as the four children of the Creator, then the first awakened Styx consciousness is the boss, and then the abyss consciousness wakes up, and then the Astral Consciousness that was chosen to merge with a mortal to create the later Lord of the Torch, and finally the human continent that is still ignorant and has not yet woken up.

Therefore, the Grim Reaper is actually the oldest god in the world, and both the Abyss Consciousness and the Lord of the Flame respect him as a brother.

It's just that the legendary character of the god of death is extremely old-fashioned and boring, he treats all living things equally, that is, the so-called equality of all beings in the face of death, he attaches great importance to the meaning of existence given to him by the original creator, and regards the cycle of life as the meaning of his existence, and he doesn't even think about summoning spirits from the hands of this stereotyped god.

However, after the abyssal consciousness awakened and the Lord of the Flame also rose, the Grim Reaper, who originally seemed to have no emotion, showed a rare trace of emotion, and the newly promoted elder brother divided his authority over the fate of all souls into three, and gave the differentiated authority to manage the souls of the good and the souls of the wicked to the Lord of the Torch and the Abyss Consciousness respectively, as a birthday gift to celebrate the birth of his younger brothers and sisters.

Since then, there has been a rule that the souls of the good will ascend to heaven and the souls of the wicked will descend to hell.

The soul after death is no longer in the hands of the stereotypical Grim Reaper, and this is where resurrection can be manipulated.

Therefore, there are many myths and stories of great good people being resurrected by the gods, and great evil people being appreciated by the abyss and resurrected from the dead to continue to bring disaster to the world.

As long as you have the ability to gain the appreciation of the Lord of the Flame or the Abyss Consciousness, you have every chance to ask for the souls of those you want to resurrect from these two great beings.

Although it is not easy, at least these two are much easier to talk than the Grim Reaper who has no feelings.

As a result, there are slowly some so-called truths. The existence of resurrection.

It's just that these are really. Resurrection is not so much witchcraft as a ritual to please the gods.

And if you want to cast a true . One thing that must be clear about resurrection is that you have to be clear about the position of the person you want to resurrect, that is, whether that person is a great good person, a great evil person, or an ordinary person who is not considered to be neither.

If you are a good person, then go to the church and pray to the Lord of the Torch, and the Lord of the Torch has set the standard early on, as long as you have the merit of saving more than 10,000 people, He will allow you to summon souls from His kingdom.

If you are a great evildoer, then go and sacrifice to the abyss, the abyss consciousness has much lower requirements for conjuring spirits, as long as you can offer enough sacrifices, it is almost equivalent to the sin of killing a hundred people.

But if the resurrection target is just an ordinary person.....

emmmmm, this is the most troublesome, you either choose to face the god of death and pass the trial of death, or you still go to the Lord of the Flame or the abyss consciousness, and pay more than ten times the price required to resurrect the good or the evil, please come forward to help you get people.

The secret technique called Necronomicon that Merlin got from that painting is a resurrection technique that pleases the abyss.
