Chapter 121: Mimic Magic

"Nine Hallows?" The middle-aged knight finally remembered the origin of those golden weapons, or the prototype - it was two of the nine holy weapons recorded in the divine scriptures - the Longinus War Spear and the Blessed Sword of the Wind Chaser, and according to that, those golden light eight achievements were holy light.

The middle-aged knight was shocked and angry, the more fierce the dog is when hunting, the more popular it is to the owner, but at the same time, as the owner, he must also guard against being eaten by his beloved hound one day, so each hound will be put on a collar around its neck.

The Knights of Punishment were the hunting dogs of the Inquisition, and they naturally had collars around their necks.

It may seem ironic to say that the Knights of Punishment are the secret weapons cultivated by the temple and the servants of the gods, but what they fear most is divine power!

This is the greatest secret of the Inquisition, and both the Holy Weapon and the Holy Light will greatly inhibit the Knights of Punishment, making them extremely weak.

Generally speaking, a Punishment Knight can deal with three to five knights of the same rank on his own, while a normal paladin can only deal with two opponents of the same rank, but an ordinary paladin can take on three Punishment Knights alone.

It is precisely because of the fatal weakness hidden in the Knights of Punishment that the Inquisition will never be able to betray the Temple.

However, what the middle-aged knight didn't understand was how this secret could be known by an outsider, of course, what shocked him the most was the two spells that someone had just released, simulating the form of a holy weapon is one thing, but the simulated holy weapon still has a strong divine aura, then it's another thing entirely.

Nothing like this had ever been seen in the life of a middle-aged knight, how could someone outside the temple have divine power in him?!

"Have you ever heard of mimicry magic?" the great magician was quite patient, and he deliberately helped the three punishment knights on the other side to popularize science.

Mimicry magic, this concept has actually been proposed more than a hundred years ago.

As we all know, there are many power systems on the Dawn Continent, each of which is integrated with each other, such as magicians cast spells with their own magical power, physics professions rely on their own bodies to obtain more powerful powers, priests rely on divine powers, orc sacrifices use the power of ancestors, and dwarven alchemists have been emphasizing equivalent exchange.

In the beginning, various power systems had their own set of evaluation criteria for the strength of cultivation, but then everyone found that this was too troublesome, and it was easy for cultivators of different systems to communicate with each other to cause misunderstandings, so there was a practice of dividing all power systems into nine orders later, which is now the common evaluation standard in the Dawn Continent, and even if cultivators of different power systems are at the same level, the difference in strength will not be too big.

However, being comparable does not mean that the power systems are interoperable. Cultivators under each power system can only use this kind of power, and cannot use the power of other systems, such as priests can't use spells, and sacrifices can never use alchemy to fight, these are iron laws that even the young children on the Dawn Continent understand.

However, magicians, as a group of people with great curiosity, do not believe in this evil, so some magicians whimsically put forward the concept of mimicry magic.

To put it simply, the rationale for this theory is that if the elements of magic can simulate natural forms such as ice, fire, rain, and fog, why can't they go one step further and simulate other forms of power?

When this theory was first proposed, it was very exciting, if the idea of mimicry magic could be realized, it would mean that the magician would become omnipotent from now on, fighting with the flesh like a warrior, using alchemy and the power of the ancestors, and healing himself with magic when injured, leaving no way for other professions to survive.

However, the ideal is always beautiful, but the reality is skinny.

It was only after countless mages who were intrigued that they devoted themselves to the research and discovered that the so-called mimicry magic was just a beautiful fantasy with an attractive prospect but in fact no chance to be realized.

If you want to simulate another kind of power other than magic, the first thing you need to do is to understand that kind of power and understand the basic rules, the barriers between different power systems are far greater than magicians imagined, and it is almost an insurmountable gap.

However, the magicians did not give up on this, and the more difficult the challenge, the more indescribable attraction it became for them.

The Wizards' Guild even issued a huge bounty for mages who have made outstanding contributions to the field of mimicry magic, a move that further fueled the enthusiasm of mages on the subject of mimicry magic.

At that time, wherever there were magicians living and two magicians met, if you didn't talk about mimicry magic, it was easy for the other party to mistake it for a super dead house that would never leave the magic tower for the rest of your life.

Later, those great mages and super mages finally couldn't sit still and took action, but they were more rational than ordinary mages and had a clearer understanding of the difficulty of this subject, so they decided to join forces to tackle key problems and form a scientific research team.

The team consisted of almost a dozen of the most famous archmages in the magical world at the time, and after some research, they finally decided to choose the ancestral power of the orc clan as the breakthrough point.

This choice is actually very easy to explain, the majesty of the gods has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the sacred scriptures record that the divine power comes from the gods, and as a higher level of power, it must be difficult for mortals to control, so it is the first to be excluded.

The difference between the power of the physics department and the pure energy of magic is too great to simulate, and the magicians are relatively indifferent to the unelegant combat style of hand-to-hand combat, so the second one was ruled out.

Dwarven alchemy is more of a form of exchange than pure power, and no matter how powerful an alchemist is, he can't exchange anything for something of sufficient value, so alchemy eventually makes it to the list of abandonments.

In the end, the magicians turned their attention to the power of the ancestors of the orc race, the power of the ancestors, as a pure energy, has something in common with magic in many places, and unlike the gods, humans have no fear of the ancestors of the orcs, no matter how you look at it, it is the best choice to use the power of the ancestors.

This study is the decade, which later historians refer to as the lost decade, because during this decade magic has remained in a state of stagnation, with little development.

The root cause is that the vast majority of mages have focused on the study of mimic magic, which has led to the stagnation of research on other topics, and as a result, the scientific research team has made little progress in mimicry magic in the past ten years, and finally had to give up, and the Magicians Association has learned from the pain and decided to strengthen its investment in basic disciplines.

In the end, the once extremely hot mimicry magic quickly withdrew from the stage of history and became unpopular.

And today, the middle-aged knight's ears heard this somewhat unfamiliar word again, and not only that, but he also saw this kind of magic that should only exist in legends.

Rob lifted his staff, and a golden tome appeared in his hand, and the archmage weighed it twice, as if estimating its weight, a move that fell in the eyes of the three punishment knights and was a great disrespect to the gods.

"In fact, the idea of mimicry magic cannot be said to be completely unreasonable, but the scientific research team was unlucky and chose the wrong direction, in fact, the closest thing to magic among the forces in the world should be divine power. The Great Magician said lightly, but his words falling on the ears of the three punishment knights were tantamount to a thunderclap on the ground.
