Chapter 477: Immortal Technique

"Lifespan. Anthy Vodaus's face was complicated, and he said in a low voice: "The lifespan of the Holy Soul Wizard is actually limited, and he can't be as close to immortality as the gods. ”

Wren suddenly brightened.

All the while, he ignored this information, but it was not his fault. Holy Soul Wizards can live for a long, long time, and the lifespan is very long, even so long that no Holy Soul Wizard has died so far, which gives people the illusion that Holy Soul Wizards are immortal and are about to become common knowledge.

The most famous example of this is Master Ogulvi, who lived for more than two thousand years as the first Holy Soul Wizard in history, living with the Empire.

Wren has read many history books about the Ellen Calendar, including the history before the New Era.

These history books mention the overlords who once ruled the world, dragons and giants, elves, dwarves, etc., and the strong people above the holy level have a particularly long lifespan, which can live for dozens of centuries.

In particular, the archmage of the elven clan is most often compared to the Holy Soul Wizard.

In the Third Age, there are many elven archmages who have been active for thousands of years, and the most famous archmages have lived from the beginning of the era to the end of the era, and even some archmages have survived the darkness for thousands of years, and are still alive and well, living for tens of thousands of years!

These long-sighted archmages misled Wren into thinking that Holy Soul wizards could live that long.

"Teacher, what is the lifespan of a Holy Soul Wizard?"

"About two thousand years. Ancy Vodaus wasn't so sure, "The lifespan of a wizard varies from person to person, with different experiences and different degrees of soul transformation, which will affect the length of lifespan. ”

"It's so short!"

Wren was stunned, it was much shorter than he expected.

Legendary high-level wizards can live for nearly a thousand years, it stands to reason that it is so difficult to promote to a holy soul wizard, how can you say that the lifespan will be doubled several times, and it will be extended to three or four thousand years, but those elven archmages can live for tens of thousands of years!

"It's caused by the Blood Soul Curse. ”

Ancy Wodaus explained bitterly: "The lifespan of a transcendent person depends mainly on two factors, one is that the body can maintain vitality, and the other is that the strength of the soul does not decline. ”

"The innate lifespan of our human beings is not as good as that of other races, and the soul is tormented by the blood soul curse when it is the weakest, and the foundation is weak, even if the soul has grown again and again, and even lifted the curse, but the soul essence is still defective, and the decline is faster, and it is more difficult to resist the erosion of the long river of time. ”

"Holy Soul Wizards have many ways to keep their bodies alive, but there are no particularly good ways to keep their souls decaying. ”

"Based on my own soul situation, two thousand years is almost the limit. Ancy Wodaus talked about his lifespan, and he seemed very relaxed and relatively indifferent.

Wren quietly observed twice, the teacher's appearance only seemed to be old, but in fact, his body was much better than most people, comparable to the legendary melee transcendent. He remembered that the teacher was born in 1242 in the New Era, and then promoted to Holy Soul Wizard in 1334, and now it is 2530 in the New Era, and he can live for at least another 700 years, and he is still far from the limit!

The teacher doesn't have to worry about longevity at the moment, however, Master Ogulwe is different.

No one knows how old Master Ogulvi is, but everyone has heard the rumor that Master Ogulvi was born before the establishment of the Empire, had a deep contact with Elfa the Great when he was young, and witnessed all the historical events of the Empire to date.

And the empire was founded in the year 221 of the New Era, that is, the age of this "first wizard" is at least 2300 years old, or even older!

This has exceeded the maximum lifespan of a Holy Soul Wizard.

Wren searched in the mobile phone library and couldn't find the birth time of Master Ogulvi, so he asked curiously, "Teacher, how old is Master Ogulevy?"

"This is probably only known to him. ”

Anthy Vodaus shook his head and replied with some hesitation, "As far as I can guess, he may have been born around the year 160 of the New Era. ”

"160 years!"

Wren quickly calculated and said in surprise: "Master Ogullevi is already 2370 years old, how did he do it?"

Without waiting for Anthyvodaus to answer, he remembered another man, the Grand Sage of Congerald.

The second-oldest Holy Soul Wizard in the High Council, whose birth date is clearly documented, was born in the year 265 of the New Era, about a hundred years after Master Ogulvi. He is also over the upper limit of two thousand years of life.

The other Holy Soul Wizards of the Supreme Council were all under the age of two thousand, and the youngest black-robed duke, Tuzre, was not even two hundred years old.

"And the Grand Sage of Congerald......" Wren frowned.

"Don't speculate," Anthy Vodaus waved his hand, "The Great Sage has developed a life-prolonging potion to modify his body to extend his lifespan, but the material is very precious and rare, and it needs to be obtained in other planes, and only he can use it. ”

Wren suddenly realized in his heart that the Great Sage of Congerard was worthy of being the greatest alchemist in the empire, and he was able to refine a life-prolonging potion.

If this potion could be used by others, it would definitely be the most expensive potion in the world!

"What about Master Ogullevy?" he asked.

Ancy Vodaus was silent for a few seconds, "That's the secret I'm going to tell. In order to live longer, he invented a ten-ring spell called 'Ogulvi's Immortality', which can extend his lifespan by about a hundred years every time he casts a spell to bless himself, which can be infinitely stacked. ”

"This ......" Wren was dumbfounded.

Ten Rings Spell!

It can extend its life for a hundred years at a time, and it can also be stacked infinitely, this spell is definitely worthy of its name, enough to make the Holy Soul Wizard live forever and gain an infinite lifespan!

As a mortal, Master Ogulwe was able to invent such a great spell, and his magical talent and strength were absolutely shocking.

Then Wren sensed that something was wrong.

If this is the case, then why did Master Ogullevi come up with so many conspiracies? There must be some kind of drawback to this immortal technique.

Sure enough, Anthy Vodaus continued: "Although the immortality technique is good, it requires a Holy Soul-level creature as a casting material, and it must be alive, including the soul and body, both of which are indispensable. The casting process is long and complex, and the difficulty is extremely high, and even the Holy Soul Wizard does not dare to guarantee 100% success. ”

Wren was taken aback.

Holy Soul-level spellcasting material, which means that every hundred years, Master Ogulvi has to capture alive a creature above level 20.

If the Immortal spell fails, more casting materials need to be captured alive.

Any creature above level 20 is not easy to mess with.

Human transcendents may be the weakest, those saint-level species, including all kinds of monsters, spirits, dragons, demons and even angels, they have no rank, but their souls are all saint-level, and their lifespan is much longer than that of humans, with a long time to increase their strength, for holy soul wizards, it may not be difficult to kill them, but it is not easy to capture them alive.

Moreover, Saint-level creatures are generally not independent individuals, more or less related to gods, either they are minions of abyssal evil gods, or they have a powerful population behind them.

However, with the strength of Master Ogulvi, it shouldn't be that difficult, at least not tricky.

Wren was a little puzzled.

Ancy Vodaus saw his doubts and said, "It's actually difficult. The first is that the probability of failure of the Immortal Technique is too high, and it takes two or three times to succeed once, and the second is that the Immortal Technique has a fatal flaw that makes Ogulvi dare not act rashly. ”

"What flaw?" Wren asked in surprise.

"The Immortal Spell cannot be constant, it is a continuous spell, but it is only effective for a very long time, up to a hundred years. Anthy Vodaus smiled and pointed at Wren's head, "With your knowledge of magic, where is the risk for it?"

Almost without thinking, Wren blurted out, "The immortality can be lifted!"

Spells that are constant will drop the number of rings, at most by three rings, if at least by one ring, and even if the best result is only one ring, the immortality will be invalidated. And the higher the number of rings, the more difficult it is to be constant, and it is almost impossible for the Ten Rings spell to be constant, perhaps only the Goddess of Magic can do it.

As for continuous spells, no matter how high the number of rings is, there will be times when they fail.

"Yes, you're quick on your mind. Ansivodaus complimented, and then explained, "All spells can be cracked and eliminated, and immortality is no exception. He shook his head and sighed, "Once the immortality technique fails, the body and soul will return to the state of true age, you can think of the consequences. ”

Wren could indeed think that he must have died on the spot.

And it's the kind of violent death that destroys the god's form, and even the soul will dissipate, because this soul maintained by magic should have perished a long time ago.

In this way, the Immortal Technique becomes a Violent Death Technique.

Ehrenus has a very famous spell called "Disarming Magic", although it has a starting ring of up to five rings, and it is a very rare supernatural element, but many wizards and mages above the legend have mastered it.

The wizards of the Nethers, in particular, have an almost essential spell in their spell-casting philosophy, "disarming magic".

Many combat methods require the use of "disarming magic".

There are even some Nether wizards who specialize in building their own combat mode around "disarming magic", peeling off the opponent's protective spells and magic items as soon as they make a move, and then making up for a one-time death spell, or a spell with a high number of rings, to kill the enemy neatly.

If Master Ogullevi were to be hit by the "Lifting Magic", if he was not exempted, he would die in an instant.

He is the founder of Nether Floating City, but he is most afraid of Nether wizards, I have to say, what a great irony!

Not only that, but the "Anti-Magic Field" has a similar effect.

There are also the Death Demon Zone, Magic Suckering, Forbidden Demon Rune Array, etc., and there are no less than ten methods that can eliminate spells that Wren knows, all of which can make the Immortal Technique ineffective, causing Master Ogulvi to die on the spot.

I believe that there are not a few such places in the empty city of the Netherpae.

Master Ogulvi probably wouldn't even dare to move around in his own floating city, let alone go out on adventures and fight others.

This Achilles' heel would be miserable if it was grasped by the enemy.

Wren couldn't help but shake his head with a sigh, thinking of a detail, "Teacher, has Master Ogullevi not appeared in public for a long time?"

"Yes. Anthy Vodaus nodded, "I haven't seen him in person since more than four hundred years ago. Every time the High Council is convened, he only projects an image, and when he needs to make a move, he asks his students to do it for him, or sends his own clones. ”

"No one knows where he really is. ”

Ancy Vodaus thought back for a few seconds, "Combined with this incident, I even suspect that he is no longer in the territory of the Empire. ”

"Will it be in the New World?" Wren guessed.

"Possibly. ”

Anthy Vodaus fell silent.

The Lichs of the Death Seal are hidden in the New World, as well as another minions of the Lord of the Necromancy, and the Scourge Legion is entrenched in the northern ice fields of the New World. If Master Ogullevi is hidden in the New World, I don't know how many conspiracies will come up for hundreds of years.

Wren sighed secretly.

In order to survive, Master Ogulwe is definitely unwilling to be subject to the "Immortal Technique", and the first Holy Soul Wizard in the history of mankind has to be afraid to hide his head and tail, which must be uncomfortable. Moreover, the casting materials for the immortal spell are not easy to find.

If you don't trust immortality and want to live longer, you can either become a god or transform yourself into a lich.

It is impossible to meet a god, and it is even more difficult.

Transforming into a lich is as simple as turning to the Lord of the Necromancy. Such a price is not disastrous, once the matter is exposed, countless lifetime glory and fame will be lost.

How high the prestige was in the past, how ruthless was the degree of being spurned against.

Wren didn't know what Ogulvi thought, and he couldn't guess if he had become a lich now, but what Ogulvi had done to Wezeland, and the damage and threat he had caused, was real.

If this news spreads, the shock caused in the empire can be imagined.

"Teacher, what should we do?" Wren asked.

Anthy Vodaus held his forehead, lost in thought, and did not reply for a long time. Wren had never seen a teacher like this, and knew that this might be the most difficult decision in his life.

A quarter of an hour later.

Ancy Vodaus finally made up his mind, and said in a low voice: "These are all our speculations, and we can't be sure if he has really fallen. We must not act rashly without concrete evidence, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

Wren nodded silently, he thought the same thing.

"The first thing to do is to confirm the current situation of Master Ogulwe. Anthy Vodaus stood up, "At least see his true body before you can judge." ”

"I'll do it, you don't have to worry about it for now. ”

"All actions must be done in secret, let alone revealed to anyone, so as not to alarm him, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. Ancy Wodaus said seriously.

"I understand, teacher. ”

Wren nodded solemnly, a Holy Soul Wizard of unknown levels, and he would not dare to provoke him if he gave him ten more dares.
