624 "Meaning" or "Representation"

"Hey! Feed! Youngster! Bastard! You give me back!! ”

Vodigeng can't help but be in a hurry, the next chief trial? Although he has been transformed into a corpse demon, and the symbolism of his brain is more than practical, it does not mean that he will believe that after these chief trialists leave the Endless Island, they will not report the upheaval on the Endless Island to those old immortals on the Endless Island, if that is the case, the next group will not be a low-level mage, but a high-level or even super-level mage group from various countries.

He didn't expect that this batch of chief trialists would be of such good quality, and they would be able to break through under the siege of his high-level undead legion, you must know that those are all undead creatures revived by the high-level professionals of the former Zhudao Guard Legion! Even if they lose their abilities before they were alive, they are at least 5 or 6 level existences when they have obtained the undead template, and even if they are placed on the Kovare Continent, they are at worst the core existences that form the undead natural disaster.

Wutong stopped speechless for a while, this guy is really a typical academic otaku mage, a faithful believer who firmly believes in the omnipotence of the arcane, in addition to studying the knowledge of the arcane and doing alchemy experiments, he is a little naΓ―ve and cute in other aspects.

There are a lot of academic house mages, as far as Wutong knows, there are many such ignorant and unsociable in "Venane Academy", in addition to living in seclusion in the mage tower to do research, that is, hiding in the laboratory to do experiments.

The otaku mages who don't see the sun all year round, although they are all knowledgeable, and they are all experts when it comes to arcane knowledge and academic theories, but it is really difficult for them to let them plan a conspiracy.

After all, "home" is a kind of "disease", and as time goes by, the "disease" will deepen, the more homeless they are, the more detached they are from the masses and society, and the long-term isolation will make these homeless mages become not good at words and tired of dealing with interpersonal relationships, and feel troublesome and a waste of time.

Except for the occasional "Fellow Interest", that is, regular "spell seminars" with other otaku mages to exchange their own arcane research results, they basically hide in their own mage towers or research laboratories and do what they are interested in, and do not have contact with outside personnel.

This is also the reason why spellcasters seem so mysterious and difficult to get close to in the eyes of ordinary people, to put it bluntly, mages are typical technical nerds, and when facing other people, except when talking about topics they are interested in or what they are good at, they usually seem to be silent

Ordinary people face a spellcaster with a gloomy face, few words, and a mysterious and powerful ability, even if they are not afraid, how can they get close?

Otherwise, in the eyes of ordinary people, the spellcasters are always associated with strange titles such as "arcane weirdo", "crazy alchemist", and "evil spellcaster"?

There aren't many "cheerful and outgoing" spellcasters like Old Man Zemur, and even they are busy with their own spell research most of the time, leaving most of the affairs to ordinary people or low-level spellcasters below.

It has become a law in the world of spells that the caster who is obsessed with intrigue and focuses on other matters will never achieve higher achievements, which is why the royal families of all kingdoms are very tolerant and lenient towards spellcasters: they are not interested in power and money, but they have to compromise on certain things because of the great need for various research materials.

The vast majority of spellcasters are not good at management, they don't have so much time, energy and mind to manage these, so they rely on some royal families and powerful forces to provide them with some protection and arcane services in exchange for the other party to supply them with the resources they need, which is a simple and win-win way.

For the secular forces, these spellcasters who can obtain their services as long as they are provided with some materials are the best deterrent to consolidate their rights and status, which is why the royal families of the kingdoms will make such efforts to entrap the casters: the needs are simple, there is no desire for power, and they will not threaten their dominance, so they are easy to dispel.

As a result, almost all spellcasters can easily obtain nobility in any country and receive favorable treatment.

And the mages of the [Necromantic Department] school are even more dead, because the field of their research is more isolated and inaccessible, and the evil spellcasters who have the energy to engage in conspiracy and trickery are a minority after all, and they are often only extraordinarily evil because of their strong abilities, which does not mean that they have a strong conspiracy and planning ability I have not seen so many evil mages in history, all of them are in their evil plans full of loopholes, and they are killed by righteous heroes as bosses to brush up their reputation?

"Scholarly makes. On the contrary, it will not be possible in ten years. "It's about the casters.

Therefore, after existing as an "undead dead house" for so many years, and being detained in this ice and snow half-plane for one or two hundred years, Voditeng can do this step now, and it is almost obvious that he is about to succeed, which is already commendable.

Originally, he was going to pull Wutong, a little mage who is also a [necromancy], into the water, but suddenly found that Wutong didn't follow his script at all, and he didn't seem to have anything to do with him, how could you make him not dumbfounded?

"Hey, aren't you interested in these treasures at all?"

Vodigeng shouted anxiously, maybe in his opinion, as a fellow necromantic mage, no one could resist the temptation of the [Dawn Sage] relics and eternal life, right?

Wutong turned around and spread his hands helplessly: "Na~!" I'm just a little mage, and I can't get Master Elarion's treasure without cracking this [Ice Cage] circle, right? ”

"Of course! So if you want to get the treasure, you must surrender to me and obey my orders," Voddigon said proudly.

Wutong rolled his eyes: "But I don't want to surrender to you, and I don't want to obey other people's orders!" I'm still very young, and I'm already at the 3rd order, and theoretically have three or four hundred years of life to squander, so 'eternal life' doesn't appeal to me that much right now. Besides, I'm already at the 3rd rank at such a young age, and in three or four hundred years, maybe I can be promoted to the ** division, or even the [legendary] rank, I have to take this risk for Mao? ”

Vodigeng opened his dry mouth speechlessly, and could only stare wide-eyed at Wutong, a talented young spellcaster, and silently expressed his envy, jealousy, and hatred

To a certain extent, the player casters are all "geniuses", and in just "one year", they have grown from a 0-level secular paddler or a muscular idiot to a 1-order or even 2-level professional, which is simply unimaginable for the aborigines who have spent a lifetime, may only be able to stay at the low level, and the highest can only touch the middle level.

It's normal for a gifted boy to appear once in a while, but it's not normal for a new generation to emerge in a certain era to be all geniuses, and this phenomenon even worries some of the big names among the aborigines, because they don't think it's a good sign.

After all, those amazing characters usually appear in the chaotic and dangerous era of war, and so many geniuses suddenly emerge, who knows if it is a harbinger of a new era of chaos is coming? After all, the recent turmoil on the Kovarray continent is very turbulent, and it is a bit of a return to the trend of the late [Twilight Age], or the early [Twilight Age].

But for players, this is a very reasonable thing, and even feel that the current upgrade speed, compared to traditional online games, is simply slow and outrageous, if it is not for the 20~200 levels between each level There are 20~200 small levels that can stimulate the player's leveling motivation, and the year of the monkey can only be upgraded to one level, it is estimated that the vast majority of players are crazy.

Fortunately, no matter how perverted Endless is, it can't really require players to spend hundreds of years of gameplay to achieve the [Legendary] rank, right? This kind of speed that has been promoted from a Tier 0 dumb guy (you can call it a 'Muggle') to a Tier 2 or 3 professional in a short period of time, has become a genius in the eyes of the aborigines.

The perennial life in the dead house made Vodigeng not very good at words, and he was stunned and speechless by Wutong, and roared angrily: "Aren't you afraid that I will die with you?" ”

Wutong rolled his eyes, you have to have that guts, the two hundred years of being imprisoned are enough for you to be reincarnated for several lifetimes!

"Afraid? Am I afraid of Mao? I'm just a little mage, with you, the ** master to accompany the funeral, no matter how you think about it, I can earn it! ”

Knowing that Wodi Geng would not choose to die with him, Wutong deliberately bullied people's "impassioned" and said: "The head has fallen off a bowl and a big scar, and Lao Tzu will be a good man again after eighteen years!" ”

When I used to watch costume films, Wutong was so envious of those heroes and heroes who shouted so loudly, knowing that someone would come to rob the law field!

The stammering Wodi Geng was stunned, and suddenly roared angrily for a while: "Kouhu! I"

"Hey, hey, hey! Don't get excited! Calm down! Calm down! ”

Wutong, who found that Wodi Geng was really mad by himself, was really afraid that he wouldn't be able to think about it for a while and do something irrational, so he hurriedly shouted: "You said you are so bad!" Why should I help you get out of trouble? What do you mean? ”

Having already raised the [Immortal Necromancy Rune Staff] and was about to burn the sycamore jade, Voditeng was stunned and said, "What does 'meaning mean'? ”

Wutong himself was also asked by Wo Di Geng, and suddenly felt that this somewhat stupid dead house corpse demon boss was very funny, and couldn't help but joke with him: "Uh, the meaning of 'meaning', that's what I mean!" It means that you have to show your sincerity! ”

Poor Wodi Geng apparently doesn't understand Sycamore's mouth-full of Asian American slang: "What does 'show mean'?" Even real Europa-American players may not be able to understand such "profound" and "meaningful" connotative words, let alone the boss Vodit Geng in "Endless".

Wutong was furious: "Nonsense! I didn't say anything good for me for a long time! Why should I help you? Don't tell me you're still going to ask what 'benefit' means, I warn you not to sell cute! Advantage! It's gold, equipment, strange things, or whatever! ”

"Didn't I promise to share Ellarione's legacy with you!?"

Poor Wo Di Geng was finally stunned by Wutong's blatant "bribery" behavior, and he didn't realize that he was asking the other party to "surrender or obey", and unconsciously became "giving benefits, asking for help", although the final result was still the same, but the surname quality was completely changed.

At the same time, Vodit Geng also felt insulted by his "promise" to himself, but he couldn't gain the trust of the other party, and said angrily: "Besides, I haven't gotten the inheritance of Ella Leone myself now, what 'benefits' do I have for you?" ”。

"Less nonsense! Don't do it here, who believes it if you don't have a spot!? ”

Wutong said categorically: "I also 'promised' that if you give me benefits, I will definitely save you!" How do I know if you'll regret it after helping you!? This year, I borrowed from the temple of Waukin, and I had to have a property mortgage! ”

This greedy little mage made Voddigon almost crazy: "Then what do you want to help me get out of this damn [Ice Cage]?" ”

"Sincerity! You're so good that I can see your sincerity in asking for cooperation!! ”

Wutong said "righteous words": "Na! I'm lower than you, right? If I help you get out of trouble, and you regret it, and you don't want to share with me the legacy of Master Elarione, I can't beat you! So, you've got to give me something to prove your sincerity! It's like a 'mortgage' when you 'borrow', if I get your 'mortgage', but don't help you get out of trouble, your rank is higher than mine, and you can completely sanction me with your strength, right? Paying off debts and killing people to pay for their lives is justified, isn't it? ”

Vodign felt dizzy, as if "It makes sense, huh?" But he vaguely felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the other party's theory, and the unlucky corpse demon who was unclear for a while said dumbfoundedly: "Okay, then what do you want as a 'mortgage'?" ”

Wutong licked his lips, and stared at the [Immortal Necromantic Rune Staff] in Vodiggeng's hand with bright eyes: "I think that staff in your hand is good!" ”

Wu Di Geng, who had always felt that there was something wrong, suddenly left everything behind, tightened his hands, and said loudly: "This is impossible!" ”

'How could it not be?' Mortgage'! Do you know what a 'mortgage' is? You're just giving me the staff for the time being, and the ownership is still yours!" Why don't you understand that the staff is still yours after the transaction is completed? ”

Wutong looked at Vodit Geng suspiciously: "Don't you have the sincerity to cooperate with me at all, just planning to trick me into rescuing you from the [Ice Cage], and then unload the mill and kill the donkey?" ”

Vodigeng was a little broken by Wutong's strings of Asian American slang, and tried to stir his rotten brain to understand Wutong's meaning, so as to prevent him from being despised by the little mage in front of him: "Of course I'm not very sincere, but"

"That's not it!"

Wutong quickly interrupted Voditgeng's words, leaving him no time to think: "You give me the staff, I will save you, and then the staff will be returned to you, and you will share the legacy of Master Elarion with me." How simple and straightforward? It's hard for me to believe in your sincerity and intentions!? ”

"This is okay"

Finally couldn't hold on anymore, but looked at the staff in his hand in embarrassment: "Are you going to let my staff throw it over?" I forgot to tell you that the effect of [Ice Cage] is not limited to the ground, the air is also limited, and if I throw the staff at it, it will touch the [Ice Cage] and freeze the staff."

"What then?" Wutong looked at the corpse demon in disappointment.

Vodigeng hesitated for a while, and stretched out his hand to point to the ice platform in the center of the [Ice Cage] circle: "In the entire [Ice Cage] circle, only the place where the old bastard of Ella Leone is lying is safe, why don't I put the staff next to him, and you can get it after you touch the [Ice Cage] circle." Don't play tricks, the entire Ice Half-Plane has been sealed off by me with the [Dimensional Chain Crystal Bracelet], don't expect to escape here with your props! ”

As he spoke, he shook a thin chain-type crystal bracelet on his withered wrist, revealing a sly expression, always unwilling to put the staff directly into Wutong's hands.

It seems that he has stayed in this frost palace for more than 200 years, and it is not without gain? Although he couldn't get out of trouble or completely obtain the inheritance of Master Elarion, he did get some good things, such as this [Dimensional Chain Crystal Bracelet], such as the [Immortal Necromantic Rune Staff] in his hand, at least his research on this [Ice Cage] circle made him already know the surname of this circle very well.

"Great idea!"

As long as the staff leaves Vodiggeng's hand, Wutong won't care about his little cunning, and said very generously: "So, what should I do to be able to lift the [Ice Cage] circle?" ”

"It's simple, you just need to go and call your fellow chief trialists and have them pour their blood on this [Ice Cage] circle, and you can melt it."

After moving a distance in a twist, he approached the center of the circle, near the ice platform where Master Elarione's body was lying, and carefully put the staff in his hand into the "safe" area, successfully did not touch the reaction of the circle, and took a few steps back, away from the circle, clapped his hands, and expressed his "sincerity" to Wutong.

Secretly chatting and pouting, Wutong resisted the urge to complain, this guy put the staff so close to the edge of the safe area, with his ability to move in the circle, he can get it back at any time, who are you fooling?
