It was a long journey from King's Landing to the High Court, but Lan Li didn't do nothing during this time.

Wearing gloves to block the onset of the left hand mark is always a bad idea, and if the chaos caused by this mark cannot be completely resolved, then Lan Li thinks that he may not be able to live a normal life again.

So he has been secretly experimenting all this time.

If you want to solve the imprint, then you must first understand it, and this is exactly what the first step of the Blue Rite idea is.

The rat in the jar in front of him was a process he knew, and in addition to that, he also referred to the glass of water that turned into sand, the dagger lying on his stomach, the buttons like stones, and the gloves like birds......

There were quite a few imprints along the way, which gave him plenty of test materials and reference items.

So he came to a lot of conclusions.

The most basic point is that there are two types of things that are "made" after the imprint.

There is life, there is no life, or what moves, what does not move.

The ones that could move included the chicken leg at the beginning, his belt, the velvet cloak that was suddenly activated on his way, and the birds that naturally made of gloves.

This kind of thing seemed inexplicable, and at first Lan Li thought that it might be the sigil that gave these items the ability to come to life, but he later came to a different result.

That is, the imprint "stuffs" all kinds of animals into these things.

This kind of speculation has been showing signs since the belt, although he was a little absent-minded in the toilet at the time, although the belt ran fast, but Lan Li still saw the movement of the belt after the change.

Crawling like a snake.

Later, on the road, his cloak came to life, and its appearance was even more pronounced when it came to life—folded and formed, like a cloth pony with a hollow interior.

Later glove flying birds were similar to the situation.

In order to be more convinced of his suspicions, Lan Li in the tent tried to stab the most conspicuous foal to death, so although the cloak horse was only covered with air, and it had no effect to stab there, when his dagger pierced the surface of the cloak fabric, the monster struggled violently and staggered as if it had really been punctured, looking very terrifying.

Then, when it was completely dead and reverted to a dead cloak with an opening, Lan Li touched the corpse of a real foal.

Invisible corpses.

From this, he determined that the onset of the imprint was not to give life to the dead, but to stuff the animal into it.

So the question is, how does this perverse stuffing work?

Where do those animals come from?

Moved out of thin air from around?

Or is there something else he doesn't understand?

Lan Li was troubled by many questions, and when he noticed that a thread-like flower had grown on the sleeve of the arm where he held the dagger, he understood something else.

Although the horse died, the force that caused it to be tucked into the cloak did not disappear, but was transferred to its own sleeve, which was then "tucked in".

If this is the case alone, the conclusion is simply that the process of imprinting is the process of stuffing one being into another.

However, the sigil is not limited to the living things that are stuffed into it, but also the buttons that have turned into stone, and the water cups that have turned into sand......

If you consider both, it doesn't seem to be just stuffed in.

It's a replacement.

Replace one being with another.

The buttoned cups were completely replaced, so their appearance changed, and the belts, drumsticks, and glove capes were not completely replaced, so they could only wear their original appearances and do things that did not match their appearance at all......

Let's not talk about what the source of this replacement is, how to replace it, the survival problem after the replacement, and why there is such a strange situation as incomplete replacement, simply understanding the replacement still makes Lan Li somewhat relieved.

Then another kind of doubt arose.

If it's really just a replacement, what about the grass that grows out of the cowhide cushion?

This grass replaces a piece of the skin of the cushion?

Before, Lan Li thought that this might be the case, but when he did this experiment with small grass and mice, when the rat in the bottle changed in this way, Lan Li overturned or added his own idea.

The ability of the Chaos Mark is not limited to replacement, but also alienation, a very inexplicable alienation.

So he came to two conclusions.

The onset of the imprint is simply releasing two energies, one is replacement and the other is alienation.

The second conclusion is that there is only one type of energy released by the imprint attack, and this energy will spontaneously merge into the object it touches, and then a substitution effect occurs, replacing one existence with another, either completely or incompletely.

However, there is a small chance that it may cause the object to mutate.

This mutation caused grass to grow on the cushion, and also made the mouse after eating the grass a kaleidoscopic "magical creature", although this kaleidoscopic change seemed to be useless, but the associations caused by it made Lan Li's expectations of the Chaos Mark completely different.

The time of the imprint energy is uncontrollable, but after the emission, this energy is basically "fixed", and the completely replaced thing does not contain energy, but by killing the incomplete replacement, this energy can be released twice.

In addition, situations similar to Alien Grass can also be controlled by him.

In other words, if he conceived correctly, he could have taken the initiative to create a strange creature like this mouse.

What's the use of that?

Lan Li hasn't thought about it yet, or it's not sure yet.

Due to the uncontrollable secondary emission of that invisible energy, as well as its uncertainty, Lan Li was afraid that the energy would drill into his body when he did it himself.

So apart from killing the foal for the experiment, he only fed the mouse with the grass along the way, and didn't create any other test targets.

In other words, he was not sure whether the energy emitted was one or two, or whether the specific function of the thing created by this alienation was just a change of shape like this mouse, or whether it would have other abilities......

Lit by candlelight in the beautiful room, the black-haired boy slumped on the cold surface, looking down at the tattoo on his left wrist thoughtfully.

A rat will have this wonderful change after being alienated, and what will happen if this energy does sneak into the human body?

……

The next morning, after a hearty breakfast with the Tyrells, Lan Li was taken to the bachelor's room by the older and younger brothers to begin setting his goals for his future studies.

The bachelor who served the castle of the High Court was called Lomis, he didn't look old, he was in his forties, his face was tough, standing under the only window in the room, his baldness was very obvious, judging from the remaining hair on both sides, he should have been a handsome blonde guy before, but unfortunately the cruel reality made him prematurely reveal the state that only old people have.

"I'm good at raven, language, history, astronomy, medicine, and I also know a thing or two about domesticating hounds and falcons."

After saying hello, the bald bachelor claimed.

"So I wonder what Lord Lan Li learned in the Wind Rest Castle and the Red Keep?"

"There is basically no need to continue learning heraldry, and the basic lingua franca reading and writing is about the same." Lan Li replied, "The rest is nothing. ”

In fact, he knows a lot of things, but those can't be said, but these two points alone are enough to prove his "diligence", after all, these two kinds of knowledge basically run through the early childhood of every noble child, under normal circumstances, a child under the age of six will not be so "erudite".

"You don't have to keep learning, are you sure?"

Maester Lomis frowned at this, feeling that the kid was a little like bragging.

"Heraldry involves the entire Lord family of Westeros, Lord Lanli, and we're not just going to learn about the coats of arms related to Stormlands."

Lan Li shrugged.

The other party then took out a heraldic book and began to carefully test Lan Li.

"Where is Bear Island located on the Westeros continent?"

"In the north, in the ocean west of Winterfell, in a harbor called Icy Bay."

Lan Li replied, and said without asking: "It is the Mormont family who rules Bear Island, the family crest is a big bear in the green jungle, the family motto is to stand tall, and the head of the current Mormont family is Jorah Mormont, who inherited the position of his father Jeo Mormont, and the original history of the family ......"

The gushing words made the maester nod frequently, and then he asked about the remote realms of the Vale, the weak families of the Iron Islands, and the mountain lords of Dorne...... The original expression of disbelief gradually changed.

Villas, the brown-haired boy who was standing on the side and listening quietly, couldn't help but finally look at the little fat man who was about the same age as Lan Li, or was actually a year older than Lan Li.

The other party pursed his mouth when he saw this, and muttered in a low voice without waiting for his brother to say anything.

"I've tried hard, but I can't remember what I can do......"

The voice was not loud, but it also appropriately stopped the question and answer, and after the Bachelor Lomis, who was sitting behind the desk, glanced at the little fat man, coughed dryly, and then said to Lan Li: "Okay, my lord, you really don't need to continue to study in heraldry, and I will no longer take the school examination for the reading and writing of the lingua franca, so let's get to the point, what do you hope to learn from me?" ”

"History and language." Lan Li thought for a moment and replied.

Although it seems that the dungeon world he has entered can be changed, there is only one example, and Lan Li can't be sure if the world he enters next time will be connected with the previous one.

Of course, he didn't dare to guarantee when he would be able to enter next time, the dagger he brought was always quiet, the fragrance had been so faint, and it had been almost two months since he got it, and it hadn't grown much. At the same time, although it has entered a new environment, this castle obviously does not have the rich "heritage" of King's Landing, which can make Lan Li smell the fragrance.

"In terms of language, in addition to the lingua franca, I am also good at Higher Valyrian and Lower Valyrian, and the dialect slang of the nine free trade city-states that extend from it, in addition to this, I am quite proficient in Dothraki and Trade, and I am basically familiar with Quells and Lazarin...... Are you going to learn them all, or are you going to learn just a few of them? ”

High Valyrian is the lingua franca of the ancient Valyrian Fortress of Liberty, and after the destruction of the Valyrian Fortress of Liberty, it was largely unspoken, but Lan Li was more interested in this, as she learned from Rhaenys that it involved dragons.

The lower Valyrian language is basically equivalent to the lingua franca of the nine free trade city-states in the Eastern Continent, and of course, the lower Valyrian language used in each city-state has a certain degree of localization and dialect dialect, so it needs to be classified in turn.

Lan Li, who has the dream of a traveler, has long had the intention of exploring the Eastern Continent, and naturally will not let go of this language.

As for the rest of the Dothraki language, the old language, he was not interested in the savage nomads of his memory, nor did he want to go to the dangerous Far North to talk to a group of wild people (there was still a little), so he did not plan to waste time learning it.

He was interested in the last trade language, which was a common slang among seafarers and pirates around the world.

Speaking his thoughts, the bald bachelor nodded when he heard this, so the academic aspects of Lan Li in the high court were basically finalized.

But what no one knows is that because of the discovery of the left hand, Lan Li is actually going to learn another kind of knowledge in addition to these, which is considered useless by most bachelors-

Magic.
