Chapter 212: Cold Fire
Su Wen scolded the cheating system here, but the old man over there had already issued an eviction order.
"All in all, unfortunately, child, I'm afraid you're not suitable for the path of a soul mage. We can ignore today's incident, but it does cause us trouble right now, if nothing else, please go back. ”
Su Wen was a little hurt when he heard this, he was in urgent need of the improvement of his ontological strength now, how could this necromancer path be easily abandoned?
"Wait, it was probably just an accident!"
The old man shook his head: "Even if it is an accident, we don't have the ability to risk it with the second soul fire." ”
Pig Island / > "This ......"
After all, Su Wen couldn't find anything hard to say for a while.
He had no choice but to turn to the system in his head.
'Pit daddy system, what is this soul fire? ’
'A flame capable of melting souls, mainly concentrated from the bone meal of the dead, is extremely unstable and must be carefully preserved, otherwise it can easily collapse. ’
'Can you get it there?'
'No, I can't get the stuff of this world. ’
"Well, there's no way around it, I'll have to give up this time, and I'll ask Donald to contact Nikolai when I get back, there should be another chance." ’
Although he was very unhappy about the accident caused by the pit system, after all, the active defense system was actively requested by Su Wen, and he couldn't even put his beak at the moment, so he could only say that he was negligent.
But just as he was about to say goodbye, he saw that the pit daddy system seemed to have something to say.
"However, host, I can provide items that are 99% similar in nature to soul fire, but I must warn you that I am running out of energy at my disposal, and it is recommended to find a new energy source within a month. ”
Su Wen automatically ignored the system's warning: "Oh, something, take a look"
So a stick appeared in his pocket, and when he took it out, he found that it was a metal cylinder.
At the same time, details of the object appeared in his mind.
"Military cold fire illuminators, the main component of phosphorus, can be automatically ignited by opening the valve, producing blue and white light for illumination, the flame temperature is extremely low, and it will not cause burns to other objects. ”
It looks like blue light and extremely low temperature, as if they are all in the nature of soul fire.
But it's not a world thing at all, does it work, I always feel that it's not reliable? But after thinking about it, this thing has already been taken out, so he naturally wants to give it a try.
He took out the illuminator and handed it to the old man.
"This senior, I'm really sorry to have extinguished the flame of the soul fire, but I once happened to have an object by chance, which is very similar to the soul fire I see today, and I don't know if there may be more things in common. ”
Augustine was startled behind the old man's back, and hurriedly said, "This man is quite cunning, and he must not accept his things at will." ”
The old man smiled incomprehensibly, and the wrinkles and furrows on his face were as unfathomable as his temperament: "It's okay, apart from soul fire in this world, what can hurt me?"
As he spoke, he asked Su Wen, "How can I use this thing?"
"Just pull the cap. ”
"Oh?"
The old man nodded slightly, observed the metal pipe for a moment, then grabbed the lead rope and pulled it away gently.
The next moment......
"Bang. ”
As a result of the air, the fuel in the illuminator, which had been completely sealed, ignited instantly, followed by a slight detonation, followed by a bright phosphorus fire from the nozzle, followed by a rattling sound, illuminating the dimly lit lobby.
The old man watched quietly for a few seconds, and suddenly his cloudy eyes seemed to become enlightened
"Huh? ”
He stopped talking, but poked his withered palm into the cold flames that erupted from the pass.
It stands to reason that this kind of flame that can't even be lit by paper, as long as it is not in contact for a long time, it cannot cause any harm to people at all, so Su Wen has no intention of stopping it.
However......
With the sound of the illuminator, the old man's arm melted silently, as if it had just disappeared into the flames, not even a bit of residue remained, and the flames were not even satisfied with this, but quickly spread upwards along his arm. This anomaly not only frightened Su Wen, but also frightened Auguston behind the old man, and he suddenly attacked, and the air became distorted again for a while.
"Quiet!"
This was said by the old man, and he jerked down Auguston behind him, and at the same time watched his arm burn with a focused gaze, and in just a few seconds, the blue-white bleak flames devoured his forearm and began to rush towards his shoulder.
Auguston's eyes split.
"But, Nero, your body!"
"I'm fine. ”
The old man shook his head lightly as the phosphorus fire reached his shoulder, raising his hand to cut off his mutilated right arm.
The flames were still fierce, instantly engulfing the isolated remains, and then extinguished as they burned out, disappearing into the air like fireworks flashing in the night sky.
Auguston finally breathed a sigh of relief as if he had collapsed.
In comparison, the old man with a broken arm was radiant and energetic: "The excellent soul dissolving ability is even ten times more than the soul fire, which is really ...... It's, it's amazing!"
Su Wen: "......"
"Kid, where did you get this thing, I've never seen such a powerful soul treasure. ”
Su Wen: "......"
"Tell me, I can see that this thing is not stable, it does not last as long as soul fire, so I urgently need more, and if you can provide it, I am willing to exchange it for you with everything I have!"
Su Wenxin said no, this is just an ordinary phosphorus fire, could it be that when he got this world, he added some kind of unknown special effects, and suddenly became very cool and powerful......
I always feel as if I've found something terrible.
"Don't hide it from my predecessors, I do still have this thing, but there are not many of them, and I don't have them with me, so let's solve the problem of my soul link first, let's discuss it in detail, can it really replace the soul fire?"
"I'm afraid not, it's too strong, too much, it will hurt the soul. The old man named Nero shook his head and flatly denied it, but then smiled excitedly, and the wrinkles on his face became deeper and deeper, "But I can help you with this process, maybe you have just noticed that I am actually a soul, and I can only appear as a physical entity in this hall, so I will be burned by the flames." ”
I see......
But no, although phosphorus fire has the legend of "ghost fire", it is somewhat similar to the "soul fire" here on a certain level, but that thing is actually just an unreliable feudal superstition, even if the high-purity white phosphorus in it can indeed cause extremely serious chemical burns to the human body, but no matter how you think about it, it has nothing to do with the soul.
Rather, it is only in this magical world that the soul is confirmed to exist!
However, the old man's right arm was burned to the ground, but it is a fact.
Sure enough, I discovered the New World by myself.
A smile tugged at the corner of Su Wen's mouth, and he just wanted to agree to let the old man Nero connect his soul with Xiao Shi, but at this moment, he suddenly felt that his vision darkened, and a huge exclamation mark appeared in front of him.
"Nope. ”
What does that mean. ’
'Host, reject him, or your situation will become dangerous. ’
'What?'
I can't explain it for the time being, but trust me, your soul, not to be snooped on by any other soul. If the host doesn't actively refuse, I can only disguise it as before. ’
'Oh, is it because of your plan?'
I can't say. ’
Looks like I know the answer. ’
