Chapter 291: Other Attempts
After a brief conversation, Banderen, who had survived in another life form, was left alone in his room, and it took him time to come to terms with the fact further.
Coulson and Eric, on the other hand, walked out of the room with him and Arden at Willy's behest.
"The perfect collaboration between the aphasia and the necromancer, at least from a transcendent point of view, is very good......"
Willy looked at Colson and Eric with a nonchalant expression on his face.
Coulson touched his nose, in fact, he still had a little bit of emptiness in his heart.
When deciding to make this attempt, neither he nor Eric took into account the subject's own feelings.
Willy can actually understand this, the transcendent will indeed feel indifferent to the lives of mortals after being in office for a long time.
Coulson was better, but Eric was more affected.
What he accepted was that the necromantic archmage Ban Sai Ren left a inheritance system, although it erased Ban Sai Ren's subjective consciousness, but the teaching of necromantic knowledge itself will also subtly change Eric's cognitive attitude towards life.
This was also Willy's biggest concern when he first asked Eric to receive the knowledge of necromancy.
If Eric completely embarks on the path of a traditional necromancer, he will inevitably gradually fall into his heart, become withdrawn and eccentric, and even do inhumane things such as live experiments like Banselren.
Willy didn't want Eric to become like that, otherwise it would not only make Eric dominated by cognition and imprisoned in the shackles of thought, but also be hostile and even hunted by other transcendentals, just like the Knights of Light hunted down Bansera Rennes.
Therefore, when Eric first began his training as a necromancer, Willy deliberately warned him many times, and also appointed Coulson to supervise Eric.
Now that a year has passed since Eric trained as a necromancer, although his mind has not become distorted, there are signs of deviation, and by the way, he has led Coulson, who is not strong-willed, into crookedness.
Although the starting point of the two is for himself and White Bear Town, for the sake of the future of the two, Willy feels that he still needs to beat them, but his words need to be tactful.
"Eric and Coulson, first of all, I want to give you a compliment. ”
Willy first affirmed the approach of the two: "Your experiment was successful, because of your concerted efforts, there is now another existence in White Bear Town that can be comparable to a junior knight." ”
"Huh?"
Eric was still calm, but when Coulson heard this, his originally drooping eyelids instantly lifted.
It was appreciated by the Baron.
Obviously, he was reprimanded just now......
"No, Lord Baron, this is what we should do, and there is no need to accept your praise. ”
Coulson's body, which had originally bowed slightly, straightened up completely: "Don't worry, I'll make more Iron Warriors with Eric." We've spent months refining and refining the Iron Warrior's body and soul integration, so the movement seems to be much slower. But now that we're in the know-how and hands-on experience, we can build a new Iron Warrior in just a month. ”
"And as Eric's and I continue to improve in strength and accumulate knowledge in the future, the Iron Warriors we produce will be more powerful and more efficient. ”
Coulson said it in one go.
"Shut up, Coulson. ”
Eric glanced at Willy's expression and knew that Coulson, an idiot, had not yet figured out the Baron's attitude.
Although the Baron is satisfied with the combat effectiveness of the Iron Warriors, the Baron is actually quite repulsive about the ethical issues.
Coulson, this guy, is always so brainless.
"If everything is as you say, then where will your raw materials come from to make an Iron Warrior?"
Willy glanced at Eric and asked Colson again.
"This ......"
After being reprimanded by Eric, Colson also realized the Baron's attitude.
His words began to become cautious: "The raw materials are easy to obtain, and there is an abundance of cyan ore in the mine ceded by the town of Shadie at that time, and although we have mined a lot of it, the reserves are still abundant. Eric can use these cyan ores to forge the body of the Iron Warrior......"
"Hmm...... However, the true completion of the Iron Warrior also requires the soul of life......"
Although Coulson answered Willy's question lightly, Willy did not let him fool him, but asked again and got to the heart of the matter.
"This ......"
Coulson was a little anxious, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Lord Baron......"
Seeing that Coulson was speechless for a while, Eric took a half step forward, took the initiative to speak, and honestly admitted: "Another important raw material can only be extracted from the body of the deceased. ”
"But was this with the consent of the deceased?"
Willy's tone was questioning: "If the souls of the deceased are discovered by the Knights of Light, do you know what the consequences will be?"
Eric lowered his head, a little shame in his eyes.
Although his kindness was not appreciated by the Baron, but was questioned, Eric did not have a trace of dissatisfaction with Willy in his heart, on the contrary, he also felt that his behavior was a little out of line.
Obviously, when he first practiced as a necromancer, he promised the Baron that he would not be trapped by the knowledge of necromancy, but now, he still deviated from his expectations to a certain extent.
The Baron was protecting himself, but he had invisibly forgotten the Baron's request.
"I'm sorry, Lord Baron, I'm going to give up experiments on life in steel......"
Eric's tone was filled with self-reproach.
Coulson glanced at Eric secretly, his eyes slightly darkened.
More than half a year's hard work, it's just a waste......
However, Coulson's psychology is the same as Eric's, with a little guilt.
Seeing Eric and Coulson's reactions, Willy shook his head: "No, there's no need to give up at all. ”
"Huh?"
As soon as Willy's voice fell, Eric and Coulson looked up again, blank in their eyes at the same time.
What does that mean?
"I just want to tell you that even if you use the methods of a necromancer, you have to draw a line for yourself. That's all. ”
Willy said patiently: "Forging an Iron Warrior is a good idea, the birth of an Iron Warrior means that the heritage of White Bear Town is a little stronger, which is also invisibly guarding more people." ”
"As I said earlier, not everyone is willing to continue their lives with a steel body, but this contains another meaning, there are always some people who are willing to live with a steel body. There are always people who have unfulfilled wishes, or bonds that cannot be let go of for a while, so they are willing to continue to live in this event. In fact, Banderon is also such a person, he is willing to accept this life form for the sake of his children. ”
Willy said, "Therefore, the forging plan of the Iron Warrior does not need to be stopped, but you must obtain the consent of the dead when transforming the souls of the dead. This respects the wishes of the deceased and, most importantly, protects yourselves. ”
When Eric and Coulson heard this, they subconsciously opened their mouths, but neither said anything.
"Let's go, Arden, the two of them will take care of this. ”
Willy smiled faintly and didn't stay any longer, these two guys, as long as they wake up at the right time, there is no big problem.
"By the way, I'm very pleased with your surprise. ”
Willy took two steps, then turned around and added.
Looking at Willy and Arden getting farther and farther away, Coulson suddenly spoke: "Lord Baron seems to have recognized our efforts......"
"Yes. ”
Eric replied simply, with a somewhat serious expression on his face.
"But we have to do better. Eric pursed his lips, "Lord Baron is right, if we touch the taboo of the Knights of Light, not only will we have to suffer the consequences, but we will even cause trouble for White Bear Town. ”
"Perhaps, while we are working on the Iron Warrior project, we should also make some other attempts......"
Eric's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a thoughtful look.
"Other attempts?"
Coulson asked rhetorically, furrowing his brow.
Eric nodded: "Yes, steel life may not only need the souls of the human dead......"
