Chapter Seventy-Eight: Magic, Fate

In all fantasy stories, magic books have their own magical powers, with strange abilities such as recognizing the master, or directly casting spells.

But Lu Qiming didn't feel that there was anything special about the magic book in front of him. He used his True Qi to test it, but he didn't feel the slightest collision of energy. This is a magic book, which has no meaning in itself, and its value lies in the content of the book.

In this way, everything is simple. Lu Qiming directly took out the pen and paper and began to copy on the spot. This thing is an important bargaining chip for the next step of the plan, and he must prepare it in advance.

Thanks to the strengthening of the physical body and the precise control of the body, Lu Qiming's copying speed is beyond imagination. Even in the original text, those complex patterns, he can draw them accurately. This kind of painting doesn't need to be artistic, just accurate.

There was a sound of walking in the wooden house above his head, and Lu Qiming stopped the pen in his hand and held the Enma Sword beside him. But when he saw someone coming, he put it down again. It was the girl, the young witch he had rescued when he had just entered the town.

"What are you doing here?" The witch spoke.

"I should ask that, what are you doing here? This is not the place for a young girl. Lu Qiming asked rhetorically without hesitation.

"I'm picking mushrooms around here and I hear voices here. Is this a witch's lair? The young witch said, looking around the cave.

"It's obvious. And it's a powerful witch's lair. It's been a long time, but the magic traps still have some magical reverberations. But don't worry, I've forcibly broken them all. You can take the time to learn it, I'm sure the things here will help you. ”

"I don't understand what you mean?" The girl was still pretending to be confused, but Lu Qiming directly broke her.

"Don't play this game anymore. From the first time we met, I knew you were a witch. A white witch who has never killed anyone is not very common, but there are still some. ”

"What about you? Who are you? I can feel that you have a large and dangerous energy in you, and you are no ordinary witch hunter. The girl also began to ask rhetorically.

"I never said I was a witch hunter, and we weren't here to hunt witches. It's about saving those kids, at least at first. Essentially, witches, and those in small towns, make no difference to me. Also, I'm going to take everything here soon, because that's what I found. If you don't hurry, you're not doing any good. ”

"I'm a White Witch, and we're not after powerful magic. We only explore the true meaning of magic and how to help others. ”

"Being tied to a stake and burned to death is also helping others? Is it to satisfy the twisted tastes of those farmer hunters? You're great. ”

"I'm a white wizard, and we can't use magic on ordinary people."

"I'm curious, why do people follow such nonsense rules?" Lu Qiming couldn't understand the mentality of the white witch in this world who did not resist in the face of the hunting and killing of ordinary people.

"The situation of witches is already very bad, and everyone is hostile to us. If we were hurting ordinary people, they would resent us even more. ”

"So you don't resist? Obediently let them be tied to a stake and burned to death? Hehe, the classic policy of non-resistance? I've heard a few idiots who hold this view. In the human world, your view is very popular. They wish all the aliens thought so. It's a pity that most of you are dark wizards. And most people can't tell the difference between a dark wizard and a white wizard. Even if they could, they would pretend they couldn't. For most humans, only dead witches are good witches. ”

The young witch was silent. In fact, what Lu Qiming said is some very simple truths. It's so simple that these white witches understand it, but they can only pretend not to understand. Because if something is broken, some people will be unhappy. The white witches who sacrificed before all died in vain. It's as if if you break the illusion of a licking dog, he will not resent the object of the licking, but will resent you.

"I wonder all this sometimes, in the square. I almost killed that nasty sheriff. But there are too many people, and if I kill him, they will hate me even more. ”

"It's a simple question, if you're strong enough against the whole town, you'll be able to make a move. Because no matter what, they can't help you. Sometimes we can't make a decision for a simple reason. Because of our strength, our options are limited. If you're strong enough, you'll be able to make whatever you want. ”

"Use the power of magic as you please, that's the Black Witch's behavior."

"Really? If someone is tied to a pillar and burned to death, she is a white witch. But it seems to me that it's just an idiot-like act. Lu Qiming did not hesitate to speak sarcastically. But did not wait for the girl's argument.

He glanced up and saw the young witch staring at the magic book in his hand.

"Is that the Book of Abramrim? The Legendary Witch's Saved Spellbook? ”

"You don't seem to be that averse to magic, do you?"

"But why did you make a copy?" The little witch finally discovered that Lu Qiming's behavior was wrong. The spellbook is intact, and it seems a little weird to copy a copy on the spot.

"Hehe, because this is a chip I have prepared." Lu Qiming said indifferently.

"You're going to make a deal with a witch? With those black witches? The little witch fled from Lu Qiming's side at once. It's like the other party has become some kind of flood beast.

"If you can come up with something of enough value, I can also make an exchange with you. The great thing about knowledge is that it is not consumed. So I can trade with anyone. ”

"Do you know what would happen if those dark wizards got their hands on this knowledge? They will become unstoppable, and when the time comes, they will cause great disasters. The little witch became emotional, but what made her feel speechless was that Lu Qiming still looked indifferent.

"You may have overlooked one thing, young witch. Most ordinary people in this world have no value to me. And whether it's a white witch or a black witch, it can bring me benefits. So, why should I care about what happens to ordinary people? In my opinion, you shouldn't care either, because you're also a witch. Imagine if magic flourished enough in this world, you witches wouldn't have been tied to a stake and burned to death. Because if you master magic, you will also control your own destiny. ”

"Take control of your own destiny?" The young witch was stunned.
