Kamijo was admitted to the hospital, Intaxis was by his side, God Crack and Steele returned to England to inquire about the matter of Intix's automatic secretary, and Zero View chose to stay in the school city after getting the two magic books that Intex traded as promised. As for Jill, who is bent on getting high-tech games, she won't be willing to leave even if Zero Visualization wants to go.
During the period when Dangma was hospitalized, Lingguan spent money to find a place closer to the dormitory where Dangma was being rebuilt, and then let Jill go to find the legendary high-tech game console.
And Zero View reported the whole story of Intix's affairs to Bai Dewei one by one, and then explained the reason why he stayed here. Although Bai Dewei made a fuss, he finally let Lingguan stay here.
So,Stay in the school city of zero while waiting for the opportunity,While continuing to decompose magic.γ
By the way, Zero View is also studying the two magic books that Intaxis gave him. These two books of magic are all formulated by Zero View, and one is written by the famous British anthropologist James Murphy. George. Fraser introduced the book on witchcraft called The Golden Branch, a Taoist classic written by the famous Chinese Taoist priest Ge Hong.
The former is a book of magic that introduces various kinds of witchcraft, and classifies witchcraft into two types: "homeopathic witchcraft" and "contact witchcraft". The latter is a book of magic that teaches people how not to grow old and become "immortals", and it also records the "alchemy" that Taoists are very good at, that is, the preparation of immortal medicine that can cure any disease and curse.
Witchcraft is a very special kind of magic, and there is even debate about whether the word "magic" should be used to cover its definition. But one thing is for sure, witchcraft is definitely a very powerful method. According to the Golden Bough, witchcraft is a distorted system of natural laws, a set of fallacies to guide action, and a pseudoscience. It's also a craft that doesn't work.
The Golden Bough not only gives detailed explanations of witchcraft, but also gives a variety of detailed examples, and explains the effects and taboos of various witchcraft. Especially the Thousand Miles Curse Killing Technique, Sending Witches, Cursed Witches, and Healing Witches...... The bizarre witchcraft not only greatly increased Zero's knowledge, but also gave him many more effective ways to deal with it.
As for the magic book "Hug Puzi". It is even more helpful for ZeroView. Although it is not possible to cultivate into an "immortal" according to the above records due to the Eastern and Western systems, Zeroview can learn from the various secret methods recorded above to improve the third method, so that his "immortality" is getting closer and closer to the real "immortality" and has a higher immortality.
Moreover, the "alchemy" mentioned above is also a very rare technique, and the immortal medicine concoction method that can cure any disease and curse alone is enough to make people covet.
β¦β¦
Zero View never thought that he and Jill "smuggled" into the school city could hide the strongest voyeur in the world, so when a red-haired girl with a double ponytail came to him and said very respectfully that the chairman of the academy wanted to see him, he was not surprised at all.
"Do you want to go together?"
Zero looks at Jill who is fiddling with a large online game in the room. asked for advice, but Jill didn't look back and shouted, "I'm busy now, if you want to go, go alone." β
"Okay. Then don't run around, and don't smash the game console if you lose the game! β
"Hey, am I as bad as you say?!!" Jill took a moment to glare impatiently at the boy.
- I'm sorry, you're even worse than I said!
Resisting the urge to complain, he looked at the girl: "Your name is Jiebiao Danxi, right?" Please lead the way. β
"Hmm!"
At that moment, Zero View followed the conclusion and left with Danxi. Come to the place where the boss of the school city isγ
A strange building with no windows and no doors, and ordinary people can't enter it at all. Even in the school city where there are so many capable people,Not many people can enter it.γ
But fortunately, Dan Xi is the guide of one of these few people.
After using the ability to move in space, she went straight into the building with Zero Vision. Then, it was here that Zeroview met Arest. Crowley - The strongest magician in the universe and knows a qiΔ.
This one was dim and spacious, and it was covered with a lot of thick wires and stuff like that. The end point of these wires is in the center of the room, a huge glass test tube containing a strange liquid.
This glass test tube is about four meters in diameter and about ten meters in length, and the glass is all tempered. Contained solution faΓ§ade. Levitating was a human in a green surgical gown, head and foot on the ground.
This human being, with silver hair, like a man and a woman, like an adult and a child, like a saint and like a sinner, even the well-informed Zero Insight could not find the exact words to describe him for a moment - no, it should be "this man" is more appropriate. In fact, even the word "human" is worth scrutinizing......
The first time he saw Arest, the alarm bell rang in Zero's heart.
This guy appears in the entire "Demon Forbidden" series of stories as a black boss setting, and it's not clear what kind of zero view he is planning, but he is very sure that the other party is very strong, definitely stronger than himself with full firepower!
But fortunately, because of the previous Puritan assassination in England, Aresta is now in a state of hibernation, including his mind, and most of his thinking is also assisted by machinery, so if he doesn't stimulate "him", there will be no major problems. Moreover, Aresta's current identity is the leader of the scientific side, and the identity of the magician cannot be lightly exposed, and the actual danger is not great.
"Welcome, guest from afar, I don't know what your purpose is in the academy city?" It is inaudible whether it is male or female, but a magnetic electronic mixture appears throughout the room.
Zero Guan, who had been prepared, shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm only here for the forbidden book catalogue - oh no, it should be the 103,000 magic books that Intix has mastered now, and I don't have any bad intentions for the school city itself." β
ββ¦β¦ Is that really the case? Aresta was silent for a moment before speaking.
Looking at the anomaly with his own zero view, Arest in the glass tube suddenly smiled, "It turns out that it is just a problem between the forces on the magic side, then my previous worries are superfluous, I thought the magic side was going to find an excuse to provoke trouble." β
- The devil believes in you!
Zero Guan smiled: "You think too much!" The magic side is not all hostile to science. At the very least, we focus on maintaining the current order, and we don't want too much commotion. β
That's right.
In fact, the Society's attitude towards science is not all negative and hostile. Science is a discipline that branches off from magic, and before it was explicitly opposed to magic, it was only natural that the long-standing magic associations regarded the precursors of science as part of magic. In Europe, where magical civilization is developed, the leader of the leading nation leads the people with science. However, he is a magician or inextricably linked to the magic side, thus achieving a peaceful coexistence between science and magic in another sense.
As a result, many ancient magical societies blur the boundaries between magic and science, and an age-old organization like Dawn and Dawn is not very repulsive to science.
"Oh, it turned out to be the magician of the strongest magic association in the British gold system, what a disrespect." After hearing about Zero's identity, Arest naturally smiled.
In the face of Arest's move, Zero Guan smiled. But in my heart, I didn't believe a word. Although he had almost forgotten about the Demon Forbidden, he still remembered one thing, that is, the Areste collected information through the "Flying Loop" of about 50 million nanometers of machinery scattered throughout the school city, and he could know what was happening in every corner of the city.
As long as Arest wants to know, there's nothing in the school city that he can't know. In other words, he knew everything about last night's movements, including the identity of Zero Guanming.
"Well, since it's not a hostile saboteur. School City welcomes well-meaning magicians to stay here temporarily.γ However, as a prerequisite. I hope that you will try to avoid friction and conflict with students or scientific organizations, otherwise restless people will stir up accidents again! β
"Yes...... Yes, you can. Zero Guan scratched his head, "I always feel a little regretful."
"Oh? Can you elaborate on that? β
"It's simple. Judging from the games you have released, your technology level is definitely much higher than that of the other ones. In this way,You, the main student of the school city, will soon be more interesting?γ To be honest, I thought I'd try their hand at it in private. But since you, as a landlord, have put forward this condition. I can only accept it. β
"yes, I'm sorry about that. They're all too young to face the magic side of things. β
"I'm only 18 years old this year - no, forget it. Anyway, I agreed to your request. In this place of School City. I'm not going to take the initiative to look for trouble with members on the science side. β
"Thank you for your understanding." Areste still had a gentle smile on his face, "Then, our negotiations are established." Of course, I will immediately send someone to sort out your identity here and all the necessary proofs and send it to you quickly. β
At this time, the previous leader of Zeroview appeared in this dark room again, and after getting the nod of affirmation from Aresta and Zeroview, she put a hand on Zeroview Zero's shoulder.
The spatial transfer ability was activated, and the two people disappeared at the same time.
And just after Zero Guan left, a woman with long blond hair and a shining light suddenly walked out of the shadows.
"Aresta, this boy has very strange knowledge."
"Well, I feel it, this teenager exudes very strange fluctuations. But it doesn't matter, just keep observing, and besides, he will probably be called a help on my side. β
"Oh, what do you think?"
"That's right, because in this teenager, I can't perceive what a magician must have...... He's going to be a very interesting helper. (To be continued......)
