Chapter Ninety-Nine: Equivalent Exchange
In the embassy of Kaxian.
Archmage Denley was pacing anxiously in a formal mage robe. He's waiting for someone.
"Someone," Denri shouted, and a soldier ran in, "Is the headmaster really not showing up yet?" ”
"Yes! Mr. Denli, the headmaster has not appeared so far. Please don't be bored. This is the fifth time you've asked that. ”
"Well, if you see Principal Avans, remember to let me know immediately. Now, you go down first!" Denri waved his hand. The soldier retreated.
Denri was deeply worried. More than a month ago, the magic master Durad and Jerry worked together to perform compound magic. The theory of compound magic was originally proposed by Principal Avans. Even Principal Avance couldn't cast a composite magic, but Durard and Jerry were able to use it through cooperation, which shows that they had done a lot of practice before. It seems that they are very interested in the composite magic proposed by Principal Avans, and have done considerable research. Therefore, they were able to cast powerful compound magic at critical moments.
Denri's mind went back to the battle at the Avans School. Although he didn't see it with his own eyes, the strong magical aura around him, the scattered magical elements, the uneven density of magical energy, and the huge destruction on the scene undoubtedly showed the fierceness of the magic battle at that time. Alas~~~, such a fierce battle will definitely be known. Although Principal Avance did the best to save the day, the news still spread. There is no shortage of students from other countries in the Avans School, and they have more or less known about the situation of the magical war at that time through various channels, and they must have thought of something. If these people know something, it means that the country knows something. It's a real headache! As long as you think about it, you already understand that although the strength of this Durad and Jerry is very strong, they are not strong enough to fight with Principal Avans, but why did they have a tie with Principal Avans at that time? Those foreign students sent to study, they are all very ghostly, and they are also very good, and it is impossible for them not to imagine the strangeness of that battle. The theory of compound magic proposed by Principal Avance may not be popular in other places, but in Avans School, everyone worships Principal Avance, and some of the basic theories of Principal Avance's compound magic have long been memorized. Durad and Jerry's performance this time, needless to say, must have used compound magic!
Denri has learned from various sources that many countries are already interested in this composite magic. And started working on compound magic a month ago. But is compound magic so easy to study? These days, after constantly studying the information provided by Principal Avans, Denri has developed a fairly deep understanding of compound magic. Its power is undoubtedly enormous, but it is also relatively much more difficult to perform. The reason why Durard and Jerry were able to perform it that time was probably also a stroke of genius, and if they were to do it again, I am afraid it would not be so easy. Moreover, the magic they compound is not very good, otherwise, if they are compounded on the basis of intermediate magic, the power it produces is definitely not something that ordinary high-level magic can resist.
This time, the Kaxian Empire entered the "World Magic Seminar" with the theory of compound magic as the main theory. If other nations had come up with this theory of compound magic beforehand, and had been able to prove it, the Kaxian Empire would have been in a bad situation. In this way, the Kaxian Empire can no longer put forward the theory of compound magic. When the time comes, what theory can the Kaxian Empire come up with? If there is no theory to put forward, the Kaxian Empire, as the world's largest power, will definitely be humiliated and its international popularity will plummet, and the consequences will be unimaginable!
Denli's face was already sweating slightly. That's exactly why he was restless.
"Hey!" A pleasant girl's voice suddenly sounded, "Denley, what are you thinking?" ”
"Ah~" Denri was startled. "It's Princess Becky. Don't scare me, it's okay, you're going to kill me. Denley grumbled.
"I think you've got a good idea, just right for me to scare you. By the way, Denri, what were you thinking? Princess Becky also participated in the "World Magic Seminar" this time. Although Ka Xian 33 opposed Princess Becky's participation, Princess Becky wanted to participate, and Ka Xian 33 had no way to take her.
"This~~. Alas, I'm worried that our theory of composite magic will eventually emerge and win the coveted championship and win honor for our Kaxian Empire!"
"Definitely. With the sheer power of compound magic, it will definitely be approved by the committee of the "World Magic Seminar"! I'm sure of that, Denli, you don't have to worry. ”
"Alas, but you also know that when a theory is proposed, it must be kept secret in advance, otherwise it will ......"
"Denley, do you mean Durard and Jerry's magic?" Princess Betsy was also very clear about that battle. Seeing that Denley nodded, Princess Becky said, "Actually, there is no need to worry about it at all. What if other nations knew and came up with the theory of compound magic? He also had to prove the power of compound magic, otherwise the committee of the "World Magic Seminar" would not approve his theory. You and I both know how difficult it can be to get two spells back together! The average mid-level mage is not good at all. Unless you're a high-level magician like you and me, it's really hard to cast compound magic. ”
"That being said, aren't there exceptions? Like Durard and Jerry, they are not yet at the level of high-level magicians, but they still perform composite magic. So, we can't take it lightly. ”
"Denley, I don't think you'd better get bothered by other things, you should concentrate on studying magic now. After all, the "World Magic Seminar" is about to begin. Denri, how about we do it again now? ”
"Well, in order to be 100% successful in performing compound magic, we have to practice it every day. Let's go to the magic demonstration field and practice now. ”
Denley and Princess Becky are the best proof of this reunion magic. They must synthesize powerful compound magic from two simple spells in order to prove the value of the theory of compound magic.
---------------------------------------------------------
If the City of Miracles is one of the biggest highlights of Falich, then "Night" is one of Falich's largest underground cities. "Black Night" is an underground city built by Paro. It is in no way inferior to the City of Miracles in its power and magnificence. It's not really underground. It is called an underground city because of the many shady things that go into it. Not only are slaves bought and sold, there are pleasure seekers, casinos, drinking halls, and even the magical and combat areas that the City of Miracles has. This "dark night" is on such a large scale. On such a large scale, Paro has naturally made too much money to count. According to some people familiar with the matter, Paro's personal assets now completely exceed the assets of the entire country! Moreover, Paro's personal power is also extremely large. There are many thugs under him, even more than the number of a regular army, these people usually maintain the order of the "night", and there are many masters, these people are mainly responsible for some problems that cannot be solved. Palau is also a person who pays great attention to recruiting masters, and he deeply understands that an organization without masters will not live long.
He had promised a lot of money to recruit the Golden Fighter Garan, but he was unsuccessful. But Paro will not give up, if one does not work, he will change to another, and if one method does not work, he will change to another method. Beauty, money, power, give whatever you want. But even so, Paro didn't recruit a single golden fighter.
Paro's favorite thing is gambling. Although he did run casinos, he never went there. Paro's gambling is not the kind of gambling that is done in a casino, which Palau believes is the least class gambler to do. A gambler who is so smart, so wise, and so powerful as himself disdains to do such a thing. If you want to gamble, you must bet on freshness and excitement!
Today, two important figures came to the "night". Paro is busy with a big thing, and he is currently preparing a huge gamble that opens every four years. The year is just about to start, and Paro is busy. He really didn't want to bother with these two big shots. However, it is impossible to say that you don't see each other. Fortunately, these two big shots didn't seem to be coming for Paro, Paro relaxed a little, and he asked his subordinates to arrange and meet the requirements of these two big men as much as possible.
In a secret room in the "dark night".
"Lord Jorah, I don't know what you have to do this time?" A tall, pale-looking woman was leisurely sipping a glass of wine. Her facial features are also very exquisite, she is called elegant, as her name suggests, elegant and beautiful.
"Miss Youya, you also know that I am an impatient person, so I will say it directly. This time, I want to work with you again. "Jorah was short in stature, elegant and tall, and it was ridiculous for the two of them to stand together. But now no one can laugh. There were six people in the entire chamber. Jorah, Zeng Huan, Youya, and three others are the retinues brought by Youya.
"Cooperation? Didn't you and I end in unhappiness four years ago? Youya said unhurriedly, as if she was talking about something that didn't matter.
"Four years have passed. Does Youya still take that thing to heart? Jorah smiled, "If that's the case, Miss Yuya is really too hungry, isn't she?" ”
"Jorah, what is your purpose this time? The last thing I like about Ya is a man who can beat around the bush. ”
"Okay, actually, the person who came to you this time is not me!" Jorah spoke amazingly.
"Huh?" Youya frowned.
"Zeng Huan, come here, this is Miss Youya. Miss Youya, this is Zeng Fan. He was involved in that deal four years ago, but I didn't introduce you to it at the time. Jorah said as she poured herself a glass of wine. Zeng Huan, I remember that you didn't tell me yesterday that there was something you had to say to Miss Youya? Now, here's your chance. You say. ”
Zeng Huan nodded.
"Miss Youya, I know that your Lanyue Kingdom is currently researching the Phantom Beast Theory, and has made a certain breakthrough." Zeng Huan said it without hurry.
"You ....... how did you find out?" Youya was originally very leisurely, but when she heard Zeng Huan's words, her face changed greatly.
"It doesn't matter how you know, the important thing is that there is a deal now, and this deal is good for you as well as for me, Miss Youya, you are a smart person, I think, you will definitely cooperate with me, don't you say?"
"What kind of deal?" Youya has returned to its leisurely appearance. "Tell me about it."
"Youya, I know, you are the leader of the Lanyue Kingdom in charge of the research of phantom beasts, I am not wrong." Zeng Fan seemed to know everything.
"You really know Lanyue Country very well!" Youya snorted coldly.
"Youya, let me introduce myself, my name is Zeng Huan, and I am currently the leader of the Phantom Beast Research Group of the Veras Empire. You and I are both team leaders, and you and I are both Phantom Beast researchers, Miss Youya, why don't we exchange our thoughts here? ”
"Is that okay?" Youya was very skeptical of Zeng Huan's words. The man in front of him is obviously a big old and rough type, and he will be engaged in the study of the phantom beast theory?
"In order to show my sincerity, I have brought some basic information on the research theory of phantom beasts, please ask Miss Youya to take a look at whether there is any conflict with your theory. As for some core information, then we have to exchange it at an equivalent price before I can let you see it. With that, Zeng Huan took out a few pieces of paper from his arms and handed them to Youya.
"Zeng Huan, Zeng Huan, who are you?" Youya sighed and took the information handed over by Zeng Huan. Her eyes kept moving with the information in her hand, and she read it line by line, and Yuya became very serious. At this time, she was elegant, and she couldn't see the appearance of leisure, and she really fell into the state that a scholar should have.
Half an hour later, Youya closed the information, and she let out a long sigh. "Zeng Huan, this basic information of yours is very detailed, and many theories coincide with mine. But there are a few things I don't agree with. ”
"Oh? Zeng Phantom listened attentively. Miss Youya, why don't you talk about what we have in common first? ”
Youya nodded. Her voice was also very crisp: "First of all, I agree with your division of the level of phantom beasts. Such a division allows us to clearly know which phantom beasts are suitable for whom people, and it is not that people with low strength can have high-level phantom beasts. After all, the improvement of strength is not achieved overnight. Secondly, I also agree with the definition of a phantom beast. The creation of the Phantom Beast is the destruction of the Warcraft. This process is a must. Warcraft are immortal, phantom beasts are difficult to live. Finally, for the 10th level Imperial Phantom Beast, I think you should be based on the Imperial Warcraft that exists in Warcraft, right? The definition of the entire phantom beast is also similar to the definition of the warcraft, and this is probably because the phantom beast is the product of the warcraft after death, right? ”
Zeng Huan nodded. "Then I wonder how the opinions of you and me differ?"
"You mentioned in the information that the consciousness of the phantom beast is the soul of the demonic beast, and I don't agree with this. Because Warcraft also has a soul before it dies, could it be said that Warcraft had the consciousness of a Phantom Beast before it was born? ”
"What about Miss Youya's point of view?" Zeng Huan looked very humble
"In my opinion, the consciousness of the phantom beast is the spirit of the demonic beast, not the soul of the demonic beast."
"I don't know what the difference is between a spirit and a soul?"
"The soul includes the spirit and the soul, and the spirit is only the spirit. After the death of the monster, the soul is gone, only the spirit! This is the real phantom beast. ”
"Really? According to you, the real phantom beast has no autonomous consciousness? ”
"Yes!" Youya nodded. "There's nothing wrong with that. It is precisely because it has no autonomous consciousness that we are able to use it as a weapon. If it still has a sense of autonomy, it will behave inconsistently with us, so what's the difference between that and carrying a pet? ”
"Miss Youya, I don't agree with your point of view. A true phantom beast should have a consciousness of its own. Otherwise, it's a dead thing. A dead thing can't exert great power!"
"Zeng Fan. You still don't get my point. I'm saying that phantom beasts don't have autonomous consciousness, but I'm not saying that phantom beasts don't have consciousness. The phantom beast is conscious, but its consciousness no longer has the ability to think, it is completely the consciousness of a beast!"
"Haha...... Miss Youya has really seen people. It seems that your research has also developed a lot. That's right, Miss Yuya and I share the same opinion. The reason why I just said that phantom beasts are unconscious is that I want to test Miss Youya's phantom beast knowledge. Unexpectedly, Miss Youya is really powerful. ”
Youya frowned.
"Don't be angry, Miss Youya, Zeng Huan is just to test Miss Youya's strength, to see if Miss Youya's strength is worth it, let me take out the core information of the phantom beast theory."
"And now? Now that you've tried it, what do you think? Youya said coldly.
"Miss Youya, I am willing to take out my core information and learn from yours!" Zeng Huan said sincerely.
"I'm sorry. Zeng Huan, I don't want to take out my core information. ”
"For ...... Why? Yuya rejected the tempting offer.
"Because I think I'm going to lose."
"You... Are you doubting my Phantom Beast theory? Zeng Phantom was furious. The last thing he could bear was for others to doubt his phantom beast theory.
"There's nothing wrong with that. I just doubt it. Youya hit Zeng Fan with a blow on the head, and Zeng Huan was stunned.
"Miss Youya, it seems that your affairs have been smashed?" Jorah, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said. All along, he was a bystander, and when he saw that the two were about to talk about a stalemate, Jorah hurried out to play a round.
Yuya didn't answer Jorah directly. Zeng Huan was a little embarrassed, and he smiled bitterly: "Lord Jorah, it seems that the deal can't be negotiated." ”
"It's okay, Zeng Huan, you stand aside and let me talk to him." Jorah said to Youya: "Miss Youya, if you are not satisfied with Zeng Phantom's Phantom Beast Theory, then it doesn't matter, I think you may not be interested in the Phantom Beast Theory." Okay, I'll take out something you're interested in and exchange it with you, how about it? ”
"Do you know what I'm interested in?" Youya said coldly.
"Of course I do." Jorah took out a few more pieces of paper from her bosom. This is the theoretical material that China put forward at the "World Magic Symposium" this year. If Miss Yuya is interested, you may wish to take a look. ”
"What!" Elegant and delicate body shock. "Really?"
"Look." Jorah handed over the information.
"Aren't you afraid that I won't give you the core information of the phantom beast after I read it?" Yuya smiled slyly.
"I believe in Miss Yuya's character. Doing business is about sincerity. So, I offer my sincerity first. "Jorah is very generous.
Youya unfolded the document, only to see that the first page of the document read: "Complex Magic of Magic Theory". Yuya's heart beat wildly. Isn't this the theory of compound magic that you've always dreamed of? More than a month ago, news came back from the Kaxian Empire that Headmaster Avance had researched compound magic and was very hopeful of winning the World Magic Seminar. For this reason, grace is troublesome. She tried her best to get the core information of compound magic, but the Avans School was too tightly guarded to get those materials. Now seeing these materials of compound magic, how can she not be overjoyed.
Originally, Youya also suspected that the core information of this composite magic was fake. However, after reading a few pages, she understood that this core information was indeed true. If you do what it says, although it is still very difficult, it is not impossible to cast compound magic. Now Youya can't figure it out. Isn't the core of this composite magic in the Avance Empire? How so? Why does the Vilas Empire also have such a core document on composite magic? Why does this Jorah say that this composite magic material is a theory that the Velas Empire is going to put forward this year? Why did he give it to me? Isn't he afraid that the Vilas Empire will be discredited at this "World Magic Seminar"? Isn't he afraid of the humiliation of the Velas Empire?
"How? Miss Yuya? Have you read these materials and are you still satisfied? Jorah said with a smile.
"Very satisfied. Mistress Jorah, you are so generous and gracious. You Ya smiled.
"It's good to be satisfied. Now, can you come up with your core information? Jorah wasn't going to let her smile put her down on business.
"Lord Jorah, according to this core document, it takes two magicians to cast compound magic, and both of them must reach an advanced level of strength. Where can I find a magician like this? Mistress Jorah. It's not that you don't know that there are few magicians in my country, and there are only a handful of powerful magicians. This time, there are no magicians with the strength to reach the high level among the magicians I brought with me. Therefore, even if I have this information, it will not be of much use to my country. Youya voiced her concerns. She's not a blind person, and everything she does is go far away.
"Miss Youya, your worries are completely unnecessary. I've thought of it for you. Isn't there a double spoil in your embassy? As long as the two of them can cast compound magic. Jorah said with a smile.
"You mean them? Can they? They're only at the intermediate level. "Youya tells the truth.
"Hey, hey. Miss Youya, please rest assured of this. Compound magic is about connecting hearts and minds. The reason why high-level magicians are used is to make up for their lack of mental connection through strength. Honeysuckle, they are twin sisters, and they are definitely much better than others in terms of heart-to-heart. Therefore, the chance of success is very high when using the gold and silver double flower to cast compound magic. ”
"Really? What is the real evidence? Although you seem to say a lot of the same thing, I still don't believe it. "You Ya must not be sloppy at this point.
"I'm not afraid to tell you. There are also few high-level magicians in our country, so the casting of compound magic is also achieved through a pair of twins. I'm telling you this secret now, just to get the Phantom Beast Theory in your hands. ”
"Really?"
"If you don't believe me, you can go to the Villas embassy and have a look in person, and I can arrange for you to meet the two twins, how about it?"
Seeing that Jorah said so much, Youya smiled slightly. "Well, since Mistress Jorah has repeatedly shown sincerity, Youya is not a stingy person. Zeng Huan, this is my Phantom Beast core information, you continue. As he spoke, Youya threw out the phantom beast information in her hand. He once quickly reached out to take it and carefully carried it into his arms.
"Mistress Jorah, there's one more thing I'd like to ask. It's a purely personal matter. You can not answer. I wonder if you gave me your country's theory, and how your country will face this "World Magic Seminar"? ”
"Haha......" Jorah burst out laughing. I think I'm in the Velas Empire, and there is no theory of what kind of thing it is. In fact, the research theory of compound magic is just one of them. Don't worry, there are more powerful theories in my country, and when the time comes, you just wait to watch a good show. ”
Youya smiled slightly: "Okay, I'm looking forward to it." ”
