Chapter 111: Taboos and Problems

An Luoser saw Fang Yuan's concern and said, "Don't worry, the speed of time inside and outside here is not consistent, if you are worried about the date of the Continental League, you don't have to." ”

Fang Yu was a little surprised to hear this answer, but immediately realized that it was Odin who had told the other party about it, and he was relieved. It's just that it seems that the passage of time in the world behind this door is a little slower than he estimated, so wouldn't it take much time for him to stay in the previous levels?

It's just that I don't know, how long did it take for Loofah to pass the test of the Hall of a Thousand Doors? Fang Yu thought of this, and suddenly realized that maybe it was better to be slower, at least not noticeable, although he had been leveling up very quickly recently, he was only at the seventeenth level to the eighteenth level, and he was far from being able to be fearless of potential dangers in the first world.

Thinking of this, he settled down and asked, "Then Mr. Ann Lother, when are we going to start?" ”

Ann Lother glanced at him and asked, "You don't need to rest?" ”

Fang Yu shook his head.

"That's good," An Luoser didn't insist, "Actually, I want to teach you skills and knowledge, and it's not that there is no inheritance on the continent today, but today people call it ancient alchemy—or forbidden alchemy—the latter is because these knowledge and inheritances come from the records of the 'Deep Sea Scroll', and in the early years, people believed that the 'Deep Sea Scroll' was the holy book of the dark saints, so they also called the knowledge and inheritance recorded above the forbidden arts. ”

Fang Yu couldn't help but pause when he heard this description.

He also knew something about the fact that the Abyssal Sea Scroll was the holy book of the Dragon Worship Sect, and that the scroll was excavated beneath the Abyssal Sea, hence its name. Most of the surviving fragments of it today contain fragments of the arrival of the Second Calamity, as well as many descriptions of the Dark Dragon in Thorin's Calamity, so it is considered a dark book by the people of the world.

But whether it was or not, Fang Yu couldn't help but retreat in his heart when he heard these words.

What are you kidding, the turmoil caused by the Covenant Hill incident has not subsided to this day, and everyone knows what happened to those players who violated the No. 7 ban. The turmoil eventually led to the dissolution of several guilds, and the aftermath alone has dealt a heavy blow to the country's two major Elector Alliances, the Descendants of Flor and the Rainbow Alliance.

At the same time, it is also the starting point of the domestic dynasty from prosperity to decline.

The Covenant Hill incident caused such a great shock in the domestic competition area that it can be said that the contradictions in the domestic competition area were all buried by that time and have not been resolved so far. Even the second Covenant Hill turmoil a year ago can still be said to be a continuation of the first Covenant Hill incident.

This matter even had a connection with him, and Fang Yu couldn't help but subconsciously think of Miya.

Although the fuse of this incident, that is, the players who violated the No. 7 ban, turned out to be nothing more than a fictitious thing. But just a false slander caused such a big reaction, and he still had to learn the knowledge above the real Abyssal Sea Long Scroll?

If it is spread out, won't it be to sit through the prison?

And he's not a 'small character' yet, and now it's safe to say that countless pairs of eyes are looking for his whereabouts. And over there, the Super Athletic League and the descendants of Flor, I'm afraid they would like to find an excuse to punish him, and he is still here to learn these forbidden alchemy.

Is this because you don't have enough trouble on yourself?

Fang Plover shook his head.

He was full of excitement, thinking that he had triggered some hidden task and reward, but An Luoser's words were like a basin of ice water pouring head-on, dousing the little happiness in his heart. It's just that what Fang Yu never expected was that this was just the beginning.

I saw that Anlother glanced at him and said, "In fact, your multiple parallels are also the knowledge recorded on them. ”

"Huh?"

Fang Yu suddenly fell into a stupor.

It took him a long time to react, and he stammered, "Mr. Ann, Mr. Ann Lother, you said that multiple parallels come from the abyssal sea scroll?" ”

Anrothor nodded: "To be exact, it's just a technique to get started." ”

But Fang Yu didn't care if it was an introductory skill, he only felt sweat like rain for a while. You say he's a stowaway, so why is it that he has anything to do with Prohibition No. 7 again? What's more, he suddenly remembered a terrible fact-

He used too many parallel skills on top of the continental league.

Fang Yu only felt that it was dark in front of him, and he almost fell to the ground. He still felt good about himself, thinking that he was sneaking around for a while, and maybe he could find a way to solve the identity of the stowaway, and then seek a formal identity from the military.

But I didn't expect that I had already played a big game, and I still performed forbidden arts in front of everyone. Fang Yu fell for a while, and it was not easy to calm himself down - just as soon as he thought of his own commotion, he couldn't help but have a black line.

Fortunately, he at least had some optimism, and laughed at himself bitterly: "Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan, you are really good......

It's just that An Luoser watched his face turn blue and white for a while, and then asked, "You really don't need to take a break, I don't think you're in a good state." ”

Fang Yu shook his head a little weakly, and only asked, "Mr. An Luose, the Abyssal Sea Long Scroll is really the holy book of the Dragon Worship Sect?" ”

"I have no study of the Abyssal Scrolls," replied Ann Lotser, "I am an alchemist, not a scholar, and although the knowledge and techniques are derived from the Abyssal Scrolls, it is not necessary to have read the Abyssal Scrolls to understand them. As I said, I'm going to impart your skills and knowledge, and it's not without inheritance on the continent today—"

Fang Yu was stunned, as if grasping a life-saving straw, and hurriedly asked: "Mr. Anlother, are you saying that this knowledge and inheritance actually has nothing to do with the Abyssal Sea Long Scroll. ”

"The only relationship between them is that it is recorded on the long scroll of the abyssal sea."

"I mean," Fang Yu licked his dry lips, "Is this knowledge and inheritance really a forbidden technique?" ”

Anrother glanced at him and asked rhetorically, "What is taboo?" ”

Fang Yu paused for a moment.

But the tower keeper had already shook his head: "Knowledge has no position, it only depends on its users. He seemed to have insight into Fang Yuan's heart, and said: "But your worries are not unreasonable, some things will always bring people a certain amount of trouble, as for whether you want to learn this knowledge, you can decide for yourself." ”

At the end he added, "I can give you time to think about it, but time won't wait for you—"

Fang Yu hesitated for a moment, but An Luose's words woke him up - knowledge has no position, it only depends on himself. Besides, he has already used too many parallels in the continental league, and if he hides it at the moment, isn't it self-deception?

He examines himself and realizes that what he fears is only misunderstanding, not knowledge itself. But because he was afraid of misunderstanding, he gave up the pursuit of knowledge, which is obviously not his usual style. Therefore, Fang Yu only thought about it for a moment before making a decision.

Fang Yu shook his head and said, "Mr. Anlother, don't think about it, I've already decided. ”

An Lother looked at him with a little surprise: "Think about it?" ”

Fang Yu nodded.

Only then did the tower keeper show his admiring gaze. Knowing no doubt, this is a quality that a top alchemist must possess, and this is easy to say, but how difficult is it to actually do? Of course, just being able to see your own heart clearly, it may also be the innocence of the teenager, and no one knows what the future holds.

But at least it's enough for now, and as for the future - he can always see it. Because the future of mortals seems to him to be only a matter of moment.

So Anlother also bowed his head lightly and said, "Well, since you have learned multiple parallels, then our first lesson will start with your multiple parallels......

Only then did the tower keeper tell the story: "...... Ancient alchemy is too difficult for mortals today, so there are only a handful of people who have advanced in this field today, and most people have neither comprehensive nor systematic mastery. Today's people are more interested in studying the margin technique, but as everyone knows, this is just a matter of abandoning the basics, in fact, multiple parallels are the core of the Noumerin alchemist. ”

Fang Yu couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard this.

It turns out that the surplus technique is also the inheritance left by the Noumerin Elf, so does it also come from the Abyssal Sea Scroll? But in his mind, it seems that many people are studying the field of margin, including many well-known aboriginal craftsmen.

For example, his titular mentor, the former president of the Southern Alliance, the alchemist Ender.

And people don't seem to shy away from this knowledge, or is ancient alchemy not the same as forbidden alchemy? Fang Yu was puzzled for a while, but he looked at the tower keeper who was slowly stating the history of ancient alchemy, and he was embarrassed to interrupt the other party for a while.

At the same time, he remembered another thing.

His margin skills and multiple parallels actually came from one person, the mysterious ID named Shana. And he only realized today that the other party should also be studying ancient alchemy, but what organization did the other party come from, and why did he pass on the training software containing these skills to him?

Of course, Fang Yu didn't think that the other party's intention at the beginning was just to coax him into being fooled.

And Anrother continued: "Multiple parallelism is the introductory skill of Noumerin alchemy, and it is also the threshold. Mortals who cannot master this skill are destined to be unable to use the alchemy of Noumerin. He looked at Fang Yuan, "But to use multiple parallels, there are two prerequisites that need to be met for mortals—"

"Two prerequisites?" Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, he didn't think about it so much when he learned multiple parallels, he just simply groped, and then naturally mastered this skill.

"First, enough computing power," replied Ann Lotser, "it is easy to understand that contemporary alchemy is an alchemy simplified by the great alchemist Eddard, and further simplification is the future of alchemy, which will allow more and more people who were not originally suited to be alchemists to embark on this path." ”

He paused for a moment, and then said, "The alchemy of the Numerin Elves can be said to be a kind of historical regression compared to contemporary alchemy. But it's no surprise that it's inherently shrouded in that history—and that multiple parallels, as an introduction to ancient alchemists, are the beginning of the transformation of complexity for today's mortals. ”

"Just simplifying into complexity does not mean regression, and the regression of history does not mean that it must not be applicable, ancient alchemy is still powerful, but it is not suitable for mortal use. For the Noumerin Elves, their alchemy is not complicated, but for you, to adapt to the process of re-simplifying to complexity, you need strong computing power. ”

"It's not for everyone."

Fang Yu nodded when he heard this, this is very understandable. As the pioneers of the magical race and alchemy, with the exception of the part improved by the great alchemist Eddard, most of the inheritance left by the Noumerin Elves was too difficult for mortals, and what they thought was simple might be too complicated for mortals.

It is also the control of the construct, and the Noumerin elves can be like an arm to the incomparably complex structure of the giant construct, and mortals draw the gourd road in the same way, and soon come to an end. Eventually, the rise of miniaturized constructs reshaped the battle craftsmen of the mortal era.

But is the megastructure powerful? It's not really powerful in the hands of mortals, clumsy and inefficient, but in the hands of the Noumerin elves, it was the main war machine in the Battle of Aetherin. It was a war of the end with the participation of gods, and to be able to stand out in such a war is enough to show that the giant structure is not useless.

Seeing that he understood, Anrothor continued: "The second is the ability to simulate spells. ”

"The ability to simulate spells?"

"What you call a system," replied Ann Lother, "the Noumerin elves can observe the structure of the network and matter through a magical vision, but mortals can't do that, so they invented the magic furnace instead. But the Magic Forge is really just a compromise, it doesn't really apply to ancient alchemy, but from what I've observed, it seems that you Chosen ones have an ability to replace magical vision - allowing you to directly perceive the structure of the network and matter. ”

Fang Yu nodded again.

Indeed, even if it is not a dragon knight system, but an ordinary Elector system, it comes with its own craftsman system. However, their Tinkerer system is small and cannot completely replace the ergonomics of the Mana Forge, which they still use when it comes to some complex and large structures.

Speaking of this, An Luoser changed his words and said: "Almost all of the Chosen have the latter condition, but there are very few people who have the first ability. What's more, all the Chosen ones with a little more calculating power have all turned to the ranks of combat craftsmen, and few people are willing to work on the foundation of alchemists. ”

The tower keeper sighed faintly: "I have been waiting here for many years, and you are the only person I have ever met who fully meets the conditions of both, and at the same time continues to maintain the development of the craftsman path. ”

The second? Fang Yu couldn't help but wonder who the first one was.

But he asked this question, and he did not get an answer from Ann Lothor.

An Lother just looked at him and said, "But you don't have to be complacent, your multiple parallelism is still far behind, this is the first assessment I gave you, and when you practice the multiple parallelism to the twelve-fold parallel, come to me to learn the second skill." ”

The tower keeper paused slightly: "For a month, it will not be outdated." ”

But when Fang Yu heard this, he couldn't help but scratch his head. He used to show fivefold parallelism, but it doesn't really mean that he can only fivefold parallelism - he has the ability to fivefold parallelism on Fenris Island, and after that, he has risen many levels, and after the computing power increases, the ability of multiple parallelism will only be further improved.

He uses the fivefold parallel, just because the fivefold parallel is the most familiar to him, and it is nine out of ten.

Therefore, he listened to An Luoser's words and couldn't help asking: "If I don't do it in a month, can the assessment be advanced?" ”

For the first time, Ann Lother glanced at him with a little surprise and asked, "When are you going to be early?" ”

"Now?"

"Now?"

Fang Yu simply pulled out his saber - this saber was used by alchemists for their own protection, but in fact, it was useless in close proximity, and it might be more convenient to use it for self-judgment. Therefore, he was not heartbroken, and directly twelve streamers overflowed from his hand and extended towards the sword.

The whole process was a bit stumbling, but at least there was nothing wrong with it - it only took a moment to turn the sword into a pile of scrap metal. He was just trying to show his multiple parallel abilities, so he didn't think about what he wanted to forge the sword into at first, so he naturally had to scrap it.

But that's enough.

Ann Lother looked at the freak with silver eyes, and was silent for a while before asking, "This is your own practice, without any basic knowledge?" ”

Fang Yu thought for a moment before nodding.

The tower keeper directly closed his mouth and only nodded: "Okay, now let's start directly with the second skill." ”

And the next half a year in the world behind the door was about the most painful and happy time for Fang Yuan.

It only took him the first three months to master the five skills that Anrothor had taught him—or four—because multiple parallels were already on his skill list.

These four skills, like multiple parallels, are basically the basis of the alchemy of the Noumerin elves. And like the foundations of contemporary alchemy, they also include single formations, materials, magic, and characters.

However, in the process of learning this knowledge, Fang Yu realized that the biggest difference between the alchemy of the Numerin Elven era and the modern alchemy is that the elves seem to be forever pursuing speed.

Including multiple parallels, the elves always seemed to be looking for the ability to quickly create things in a short period of time, which made Fang Yu subconsciously think of the scene when the tower keeper performed to him forging legendary equipment.

It seemed to be the same at the time, the Mithril material formed a complete magic guide in the opponent's hand in an instant, and each change of form took no more than a few seconds.

Contemporary alchemists are very interested in the venue and environment, as most productions need to be completed in a quiet environment, which is time-consuming and laborious. The process, including the engraving process, can take anywhere from days to months.

Like his previous production, many of the materials and components used were ready-made, but even then it took five or six hours to complete. But for the Noome elves, they rarely use off-the-shelf components and materials.

The elves seem to be accustomed to taking local materials, carving arrays in an instant, composing components, and then assembling them into complete magicians.

This ability to form formations in an instant gives their alchemists an ability similar to that of a battle craftsman, that is, in the era of the Numerin elves, it is very likely that the battle craftsman and the alchemist are actually inseparable.

When Fang Yu realized this, he couldn't help but have a feeling of discovering a new continent. Only then did he understand why Anlothar had said that the development of modern alchemy did not matter, but compared to the time of the Numerin Elves, the battle craftsmen did seem to have gone astray.

If a combat craftsman really gave up the path of alchemy completely, could he still be called a craftsman?

It's just that before Fang Yu could figure this out, the real suffering came.

That was around the time he started a skill called 'Elemental Screening', which in Anlothor's description was the core ability of the Noumerin Elves to be sourced locally.

However, the sensing element is undoubtedly a big problem for Fang Yuan.

He found that he couldn't sense the elements, and his understanding of this skill was naturally impossible.
