693 The Melancholy of Emmones 5
In response to the White Dragon Emmonris's fear that he would be deceived, Gordon adopted the simplest and most direct method to dispel his thoughts: sign a contract.
Bound by the power of the rules that make the entire multiverse work, a contract guaranteed by the souls of both parties cannot be broken by even the gods. So when Gordon spoke his mind, Emmones readily agreed.
"Mage Freeman, you're an evil guy, but among the many big bad guys, you're very bad and have your own style. I appreciate you. In the future, we may both be able to leave our own resounding notoriety in this world. Emmones laughed.
Let's just praise that. However, it is nothing commendable to be praised by Bailong, who is not very sober and thinks about how to be a big villain all day long. Now that he has finally persuaded Emmonrys, the next thing to do is to take out the special magic paper that he had prepared a long time ago, sign a contract with it, and then set out to let this white dragon with only a soul return to his body that had been frozen for nearly 10,000 years.
Now that the White Dragon has been convinced, all that remains is the Arcane problem.
The stone tablets that Gordon found from the real yàn chamber already recorded all the details of soul transfer and cloning in detail, and it was not a problem. He only needs to draw the gourd in the same way, just as the Akhorhia mages transferred their souls to a new clone in order to live longer, he only needs to retransfer Emmonris's soul to the body that was separated by the power of the Arcane Gem.
And the body of a dragon frozen deep underground. It's not a clone, it's the body of the white dragon. So the fit with its soul is perfect, and the difficulty of the whole spell. As a result, it has been greatly reduced.
However, dragons and dragonborns are different after all, so Gordon can't copy the experience recorded on the tablets, and must rely on his previous arcane knowledge and experience to improve.
Fortunately, Gordon is not alone. Aziz, as an excellent mage, was able to provide him with great assistance. And Aziz's sister, as well as the little Princess Angeline, can also help.
Now that the matter has been negotiated, Gordon does not procrastinate, and immediately gets busy. To appease Emmonris. In order to prevent the strange thinking of Mr. White Dragon from causing any additional trouble, Gordon asked Ainia to accompany him, and used psychotropic drugs, that is, those absurd adventure stories, to settle him down.
Gordon, on the other hand, concentrated all the other manpower and resources and began the plan to let the white dragon regain his flesh and blood.
Cloning and Soul Transfer are both eight-ring spells, and with Gordon's current ability, it is naturally impossible to directly cast these two high-level spells. However, there is a magical ritual that can be fully prepared in advance and consumed a large number of precious alchemy materials. to make up for the lack of arcane attainments.
Even if there are some alchemy materials for magical rituals that are difficult to obtain under today's conditions, Gordon can use his expertise in spell-casting to solve this problem. While the result is a drastic drop in XP in the XP pool, it is also a price that must be paid.
After days of research, scrutiny, and experimentation. When the story in Ainia's head was almost completely emptied, and she could only make up nonsense every day to perfunctory the white dragon, Yiqiē was finally ready.
That big block of ice in the ground has completely melted. Emmonrys's body was also liberated. Today, it's not too big. But the scales are white and pure, and the dragon body is quite good-looking. It was lying motionless on a huge and complex magic array.
"It's a shame that such an elegant and beautiful dragon body is owned by a fool like Emmonris......" Gordon said in his heart. After speaking, the mage opened the list of characters in the sea of knowledge and examined his own attributes. After reading all the Akhorhia tablets in the Magic Chamber, he not only gained a lot of experience points, learned the new Arcane specialty of the Advanced School of Change, but also received a new title: Akhohia's Life Limit Explorer.
It is estimated that he received this title after inheriting the crystallization of the knowledge of the ancestors of the Akhorhya Empire to explore the mysteries of life and extend life. The effect of this title for Gordon is that he gains a 30% buff when he uses and researches arcane realms related to life or souls.
The arcane realm related to life belongs to the category of the School of Change, while those related to the soul belong to the School of Necromancy. Neither of these areas was too good for Gordon - especially the Necromancy. However, it is always beneficial to have an extra skill. Even if you don't like to learn necromancy, you know more about the realm of souls and death, and you will be better able to deal with such enemies in the future.
Although the body of the white dragon has been frozen for nearly 10,000 years, it has not lost its vitality. On the contrary, extreme low temperatures maintain the vitality of the body. After Gordon and Aziz had just thawed it with a fire spell, without the barrier of 10,000-year-old ice, the two mages immediately felt the huge and active life source energy emanating from the dragon's body.
Originally, Emmonris's soul was forcibly pulled out of his body by the power of the Arcane Gem, so after the dragon body was thawed, it remained in its original state. This is undoubtedly good news, and it has made Gordon's plan much more difficult.
Now, above the white dragon's body, a large, translucent dragon-shaped ghost floats.
Even after so many days, Emmones Reess still hasn't fully recovered from the trauma of a big battle with Gordon and his party. Although there are no physical entities and no specific scars are visible, his near-nothingness body color indicates that he is in poor condition. But this white dragon is not worried. Because everything is left to the mage who has formed a "wicked alliance" with him, he, the great evil dragon, only needs to lie in his lair and listen to Miss Ice Elf tell him stories comfortably.
Now, seeing his familiar and unfamiliar body, Emmones Rees had mixed feelings in his heart, and a rare expression of stern expression appeared on his face.
"Finally, the day has come to get rid of the present appearance and restore the original flesh and blood...... Although this was the first step for Emmonres to become a great dragon and leave a name in history, I was still a little sad at the thought of giving up this convenient body and having to give the Mystic Gem as a reward to the mage...... It's like this snowy sky...... Uh, though you can't see the sky outside here......" (To be continued......
