"As you wish, boy." The scarecrow will do his best to collect the money.

"Wait, hide my name before talking. Well, let's use the code name 'owl'. "Don Shidao can make a request after paying the money, and the scarecrow generally complies with the request. Thinking that the scarecrow knew everything, Tang Shidao couldn't help but ask curiously: "Anyway, everyone relies on you to deliver news, you must know a lot of things, right?" It's strange to me that sometimes you don't seem to recognize me. ”

The Scarecrow sends a message to the Blood Count.

While waiting.

It looked up calmly again, and slowly raised its right hand. Cast a spell that extracts a message from its own head, then shatters into invisibility: "It's called 'Memory Destruction,' and I cast it every few moments. Memory destruction doesn't make me completely amnesia, it only makes my memories shattered and fragmented. So, I forget someone and forget something is random. ”

Tang Shidao wondered: "Why do you do this?" ”

Scarecrows are hard to get serious: "In your world, smart businessmen will remember the preferences of their customers, figure out their thoughts, and provide them with better service." But Mage.com is different. If I keep in mind all the mages' purchases and learnings, it is tantamount to snooping on the mages' privacy. Thousands of you who are so weak have snooped on, and you can't help me. However, I don't even know how many mages there are on the mage network, and I'm not sure if there is a single one that is stronger than me. I'm safe with broken memories, and I don't want to be besieged by all the mages of the mage network one day, you know? ”

Hearing this, Tang Shidao understood.

The scarecrow's approach is very clever. The most feared thing for a mage is this: secret exposure!

Not only in the original world, but also in the mage network, it needs to be kept secret. It's like there are countless mages on the mage network, but none of the mages have ever exposed their natural spells. The scarecrow works every day, and countless clones are busy, and if it keeps track of all the mages, then ...... It will be the public enemy of all mages.

A person who controls all the secrets of the mage, no one can rest assured.

Even if it's yourself.

If all the spells and scarecrows he bought and sold knew about it, he knew all the places he had been, and he knew all the tasks he had accepted, and he would be very uncomfortable with this kind of 'existence'. It doesn't matter if you know about petty fights. Once it is a matter of life and death, the scarecrow must be regarded as an 'enemy' when he knows it. The Scarecrow doesn't want to be the enemy of all mages, and it can only delete something it shouldn't know.

It's stupid to shatter your own memories.

But, this move is very clever.

Tang Shidao believes that the memory destruction of the scarecrow is targeted, and it is impossible for it to forget its own work. If it's a computer, it's just erasing the 'browsing history', and it can't even destroy its own system.

"The other party agrees to talk in secret." The scarecrow opens a special passage, and it itself evades and does not listen.

Soon.

"Hello, fellow, I'm the Blood Earl."

"Hello, I'm an owl. I beg your pardon, it's my pseudonym and I don't want to reveal my true identity. Tang Shidao responded.

"It's normal to use a pseudonym, I wouldn't mind. Looks like you're going to sign my untraceable pact, right? ”

"It's a must, Count Blood. Without this premise, I will not accept your assignment. Tang Shidao explained his requirements in advance, so as not to follow all nonsense.

"Yes, we'll talk about the conditions later. Do you know what my mission requires? ”

"Resurrect you."

"Well, it's not just resurrection, it's about resurrecting me when I'm crushed and my ashes are gone. Can you do it? Ordinary resurrection techniques are not possible, I ask for spells or scrolls that can be resurrected with only the soul. You have to promise that I will be resurrected even if I am gone. ”

"Yes. As long as you don't spy on what methods I'm using. ”

"Of course, snooping into other mages' secrets is also an act of invincibility. It is a very normal move to hide your identity and abilities in the mage network, and even old friends who have been friends for tens of thousands of years will not reveal everything. Mr. Owl, we need two new treaties. First, I pledge to remain asleep after I die, not aware, not examining, and not retracing your spell casting, including your identity. As long as the mission is completed, I can directly shatter this memory. But, I also need protection. Second, you have to sign a mission-based life union. If you break the covenant and don't resurrect me after I die, you will die too. ”

"No problem." Tang Shidao knew what the other party meant. When he died, he gave his 'resurrection' to another stranger, and he didn't ask for protection.

There are many things that have a resurrection effect.

For example, your own talent spell, a magic scroll with a resurrection spell, an alchemy ring or wand with a resurrection spell, or even a resurrection armor or a necklace. Resurrection spells can be used multiple times, and items tend to be used only a few times, at least once. Therefore, the items that can be resurrected are very precious, and most mages are reluctant to use them, because they are gone after using them once.

Fear that he would encounter a 'halfway backing' teammate, the Blood Earl naturally asked for a Life Coalition contract.

Tang Shidao readily agreed, because his talent spell was reincarnation and rebirth, and he could use the resurrection spell infinitely. All you need to do is: keep it a secret! As long as the other person doesn't know what method they're using, everything else doesn't matter.

The premise was negotiated, and the two discussed for a while.

Soon.

Tang Shidao signed a contract with the Blood Count and turned into an owl to go to the world of the Blood Count.

After entering.

Tang Shidao found out: This is a world of interstellar civilization, and the technology is many times more than that of the Earth Emperor Star. The Blood Earl was dressed as a 'vampire nobleman', and as soon as he opened his mouth, he prompted his identity: "Hello, Mr. Owl, thank you very much for your help." If you want to go out, be careful not to make a mess. There are vampires in this world, but there are no mages. ”

Tang Shidao nodded: "Mr. Count Blood, please rest assured, I will not affect your world." I'm curious, this is a technological society, why are there vampires? ”

The Blood Count showed his finger: "Because of this alchemy ring, it's called the Vampire Transformation Ring." There are more than 300 of these things in the world, and I bought them from the mage net. There are more than 300 vampires in this world besides me, and they are the most powerful and wealthy people. ”

"Do you need them to provide you with a comfortable life?"

"Almost. I don't want to change the world, but I also want to enjoy a comfortable life, so I create a group of 'likes' to meet the needs. "The Earl of Blood doesn't deny it either.

"Aren't you worried about revealing the secrets of the Mage Network?"

"Nope. These rings are derived from the remains of antiquity, and they are antiquities. Although the world is technologically advanced, it is not yet possible to analyze 'alchemical items'. I put the rings in the ancient ruins, and they had to be antiquities as soon as they were unearthed. To be skeptical, scientists are also skeptical of what happened in antiquity. "The Blood Count is not worried about using alchemy items, as technology cannot crack magic.

As long as it is properly placed, the scientists can do the rest on their own.

"Why do you need to die?" Tang Shidao was strange.

"Because I've lived longer than other vampires." The Blood Earl laughed at himself and said, "These rings can make the bearer physically strong and survive for hundreds or even thousands of years. Unfortunately, no matter how long the body survives, the soul will age. Death, inevitable. Only a mage can cultivate and strengthen the soul, not mortals. I lived too long and they began to suspect my anomaly. If it weren't for the identity of the first generation of vampire discoverers, they would have taken me down long ago. ”

"Finder?"

"Yes, I'm a scholar now. The first person to find the vampire ring, and the most honored university scholar of recent times. They haven't done it directly yet, but some of the vampire members feel that death is coming, so they can't care so much. This is my secret abode, and there are some of my experiences on the shelves. Take a look at the history of this planet and find out why I am. "The Blood Earl has a teammate and immediately starts his own plan.

Tang Shidao didn't ask much.

In order to hide himself, the mage will do everything he can. Thunderstone hides underground and does not touch outsiders, and the wolf poisoner turns himself into a warrior to save the princess. It is not surprising that the Blood Earl wants to 'die' once, because there is no more complete disappearance than death.

Flipping through the history books of this world, Tang Shidao found some interesting things.

First of all.

In the age of steam, the world is very chaotic, with war and death everywhere. During this time, as everyone had hoped, a great hero appeared. He rose as an orphan, quickly gathered his team, gradually took power, then unified a country, and finally dominated the world. The Great Ruler was the one who focused on science and technology, especially biology. In the development of the whole world and the unity of all people, the great unifier finally gave birth to the biotechnology of maintaining the body at the 80th birthday, allowing him to regain his youth.

Commendable.

As soon as the Great Unifier regained his youth, he ordered that this technology be extended to all mankind, and that half of his fortune would be used to select the lucky ones to realize his youthful dreams.

No matter how you look at it, the Great Unifier is the greatest leader in the history of the world, and there is no one.

But.

With the development of science and technology, more and more biotechnology has been used to extend people's lives, and the people who have stepped into the interstellar civilization have discovered a strange thing: their supreme leader has lived for more than a thousand years. At this time, the second generation of loyal subordinates who followed him were also close to death.

In science and technology.

Genetic agents, controllable viruses, or the direct creation of biochemical bodies, interstellar civilizations have countless technologies to keep the flesh ageless.

However, no one can avoid the aging of the soul.

In the midst of the turbulent undercurrent, the great leader was accidentally killed in an experiment, and he was left in ashes. Since then, all intrigues and speculations against the Great Leader have vanished, and no one has ever mentioned them again.

Seeing this, Tang Shidao smiled.

Flip through the history books again.

After the Great Leader, another Pope of the 'Sect of Life' appeared. Within a few years, he succeeded in founding the Life Sect and guiding people to practice some kind of ancient secret method to prolong their lives. Although this is an interstellar civilization, extending lifespan is still an important issue. It didn't take long for the Life Sect and the Secret Method to become the mainstream, and until now, the Life Sect is still at the top.

At a time when people were suspicious of the Pope, who had lived for more than 800 years, the Pope also spontaneously combusted and died during a practice.

All that's left is a pile of scraps.

After that, all voices of skepticism died down. The Life Sect even offered the 'remnants of bones' as holy relics.

Tang Shidao laughed again.

He recalled the words of the wolf poisoner: it was naïve that he could not even satisfy all the wishes of his wife, and that he wanted to satisfy everyone. The Blood Earl's approach is not entirely for others, his domination of the world is equivalent to giving everyone a stable home. Why do you keep doing things? Very simple. He needs to have a life of his own. He didn't want to hide in a cave and be a mouse, so he naturally took the route of 'hiding in the city'.

Every thousand years or so, if you can't pretend to be an ordinary person, you will 'die' once.

The Great Unifier.

Pope.

The first university scholar to find a vampire ring.

These identities allow him to live comfortably and without being doubted by others. Except for the mages who knew about the mage network, how could the people have thought that their emperor, the pope, and the university were all the same person. Even if some people doubt, hehe, he has long died of old age, who can live longer than the Blood Earl.

On your own side, can you suspect that Emperor Xia was reincarnated as a modern person?

The Blood Earl seems to have been doing stupid things.

However, his cleverness cannot be questioned.
