Chapter 603: Level up first and then fight monsters

Victor and Caligula went out of town overnight. The two of them identified the direction, chose a straight line without a road, trekked all the way, and arrived at Pinghu Town, led by Randall the next afternoon.

Nicole, Sister Alina, and Lilia were particularly pleasantly surprised by his sudden return, especially Lilia's tears of excitement rolling down like pearls. After the two got married, they have always been together less and more separated, this time the Randall's Chapel was lit with a red beacon, Victor, as the Royal Highness of Gombis, was about to go to the distant Sassanian Empire to fight the centaur army, he may not be back for several years, Lilia was worried about her husband's safety, but also afraid that her face would fade and she would no longer be able to be by his side.

Victor briefly comforted Nicole and the three personal maids, saying that he would accompany them in Pinghu Town for a few days before rushing to the Minsk Fortress assembly site. Only then did the ladies calm down and go to the kitchen together to prepare dinner for their husbands

While Nicole and the others were preparing for dinner, Victor put on a hooded cloak and quietly went to the Pinghu Town Church alone to find Father Miller.

Compared to the tense atmosphere in the royal capital of Blinor, the impact of the red smoke and flames on Pinghu Town was very slight. After all, this is the southernmost point of the human realm, and it is still thousands of kilometers away from the war front line of the Sassanian Empire. Moreover, Randall's tenant system has been quite perfect, the government affairs department's control over the territory can be called strict, almost all tenant families are recorded, and the lord can even check the basic information of each tenant family at any time, as well as the assistance status of every newborn and old man.

The registration system and relief system for the registered citizens of the Randall family played a crucial role in reassuring the people and bringing them together.

The whole Pinghu Town is like an efficient machine, what everyone should do and what else to do. The interior walls of the silver ore are nearing completion, the smoke of the giant brick kiln is still billowing from it, and the main part of the cathedral is nearing the fourth floor...... Only the carriages full of supplies, one by one driving in the direction of Jinshui City, can see that the church tower has lit a red smoke beacon.

As soon as the evening prayer in the small church in Pinghu Town ended, and when the believers had left the prayer hall, Victor took off his hood and showed his handsome face, and Father Miller was very surprised and exclaimed in surprise: "You...... You didn't go to war, why did you run back?"

"Old fellow, you don't seem to want to see me. Victor chuckled, waved the church attendant away, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "I'm not here to tell you to prophesy, don't glare at me." ”

When Miller heard this, he let down his guard and muttered, "It's not good for you to come back to see me...... Sit down, do you want me to pour you a glass of water?"

As he spoke, he picked up the jug, poured a glass of water, and pushed it down the long table to Victor.

After taking a sip of cold water, Victor held the clay cup and smiled with emotion: "This cup of water is really timely...... Caligula and I ran almost a thousand kilometers in a row, and the first thing he did when he came back was to drink half a bucket of water and go to play with Bale...... I don't even drink a sip of water, isn't that a monster?"

"You're really weird. ”

Miller sat down opposite Victor, nodded repeatedly, shook his head again, and said, "I have been a priest in many remote places, and I have seen many small lords, but there is no earth lord like you, who likes to ponder the affairs of the common people. ”

Victor asked curiously, "Do you think I'm a kind-hearted lord compared to them?"

Miller smiled, shook his head and said, "You are smarter than them, and the hearts of the lords are probably the same." ”

Victor was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Old fellow, you see it very thoroughly...... However, my people love me very much. Do you know the trick to making your people love your lord?"

The wrinkles on Miller's face became deep, and after thinking about it, he shook his head and tried to ask, "What's the trick?"

"I love my people, they love me as much as I love them, and then they love the Randall family and the land as much as I do. They will fight for me in my name. Victor said in a deep voice: "If I am disgusted with them, they will be disgusted with me, and they will be disgusted with the Randalls...... I am the Randall family, and now, I represent the Centaur Hills, and in the future, I will represent the Gambis Empire. ”

Miller gave Victor a deep look, twisting his gray beard at the chin and sighing, "I really hope you can remember what you said...... Also, you are a monster indeed...... Actually, you've lived for more than a hundred years and deliberately pretended to be a minor in front of everyone?"

"Is that a compliment to me?" said Victor, pointing to his temple, "I'm a natural wiser." ”

"Innate wisdom also includes life experience?" muttered to the Divine Favorite, who suddenly felt frustrated, feeling that he had lived a handful of years in vain compared to the little guy in front of him.

"You're not going to watch a good lord like me befall something, are you?"

"Okay. Miller smiled helplessly, leaned back in his chair and said, "What do you want to ask again?"

Victor blinked and smiled, "Then you're welcome...... Many, including me, believe that the human kingdom is about to face a great catastrophe. But I didn't expect the centaurs to invade the human empire in a full-scale way, which was not the same disaster I expected. But I now have a different view, and the Centaur invasion may have been part of the disaster...... Because the time scale of the evil gods is different from ours, the time and form of their calamities are also many and varied. ”

Miller didn't have any expression on his face, just listened quietly.

Victor held the cup and said sullenly, "If Ant-Man attacks Centaur Hill at this time, it will be troublesome." ”

After a while, Father Miller patted Victor's shoulder with a heavy expression and said, "Child, the future is chaotic, containing countless possibilities, but there is only one outcome...... The origin of the world, the Elemental Sea in the Knight's mouth, or the Creator, is the result of turning the endless chaos of the future into realityβ€”everything in this world. ”

β€œ...... This centaur invasion, I foresee, will die at the hands of the centaurs. ”

Victor's expression stiffened, and then he sneered, "I don't believe it!"

Miller's old face showed a sly smile, like an old fox, "If you don't believe it, if the future is set in stone, what's the point of your efforts......? So, don't ask me again, let my old bones live a few more years. Good-hearted His Highness Randall. ”

Victor spread out his hands and said innocently, "But, I haven't asked at all?"

"...... you. The smug smile froze instantly, and Father Miller pointed to Victor's nose and said angrily, "You're playing tricks again...... Isn't it fun to bully me as an honest man?"

Patting Father Miller's finger away, Victor smiled and said, "Don't be angry, you just explained the future and fate very interestingly, but I also told you how to make the people love the lord...... However, what I want to exchange is not what you just said, it can only be counted as an additional gift from you...... Actually, I don't have any questions to ask you, I just want you to take action for me once, try to save my life, that is, right away. ”

Curious and nervous, Father Miller lowered his voice and asked, "What do you want to do right away?"

"During this time, I met a ...... in Blinor City Old wizard. ”

Seeing that the Divine Favorer's expression was flat, Victor relieved himself and continued: "He is a very knowledgeable person, especially in the field of pharmacy, and almost no one can compare with him. We cooperated to study the secret method of knight bloodline, he once used medicine to cultivate knights with pure blood, King Ryan of the Kingdom of Gombis and Princess Roland all benefited from his help, and was successfully promoted to the Golden Knight at a young age, especially Princess Roland, her bloodline is almost not much different from Auguste's legendary ancestors, white and blonde hair, advocating freedom, Tian** comic, has a wide range of interests, is a bit unreliable, in fact, it is very smart, it is simply the reproduction of Auguste's ancestors......"

"I carefully studied the research records of the wizards of the Kite Castle, and then I made an amazing discovery!"

After a pause, Victor's eyes brightly said: "I found that bloodline affects a person's character, such as the sailors of the Borui Kingdom, they have a hot temper and are enthusiastic and hearty. In turn, a person's personality will also affect his bloodline, which is the starting point of our research on the secret method of the knight's bloodline, using the power of the mind to control the change of the bloodline, but then, I found that the personality can be passed on to his descendants through the bloodline. ”

"Roland's personality is like that of her ancestors. ”

Father Miller scratched his scalp and said with a wrinkled face: "I have never understood the hearts and bloodlines you are talking about. ”

Victor said with a smile: "The knight's bloodline is very abrupt, it does not belong to any kind of human bloodline change, it actually comes from the inheritance of the soul level. The finger tapped his chest, "My lord is not my lord, my lord is not my lord, there is a god living in the depths of our souls, from the origin of all things in the world, from the elemental sea, and the blood of knights is inherited through the soul, which is part of the authority of the Creator." ”

Holding the water glass in both hands, Victor took a sip of water, as if tasting fine wine, and said with a ruddy face: "I concealed this discovery, on the one hand, I want to use it to create a more intelligent knight's bloodline secret method, on the other hand, the change in the spiritual level is extremely risky, and my discovery has yet to be verified...... His Royal Highness Randall said that character determines destiny. ”

Miller said with a sad face, "I still don't understand. ”

"Haha, then you can understand. ”

Victor smiled happily, and after a while, put away his smile, stared at Miller's ordinary eyes, raised his eyebrows, and said:

"The sigil of light of the paladin family. ”

Miller stood up abruptly, half-opened his mouth again, sat down slowly, rubbed his hands, and asked nervously and expectantly, "You...... What are your thoughts on the Mark of Light?"

Victor looked at him suspiciously, and asked, "You look strange." ”

Miller's face turned red, and he craned his neck and shouted, "I...... I like to study magic when I'm idle, so can't I have a hobby?"

Victor had no intention of exposing Miller's duplicity, and said with a smile: "It seems that we have a common topic...... The light sigil belongs to the mind, uh, well, I put it another way, it belongs to the soul level of divine magic?"

Miller nodded, thought for a moment, frowned and said: "The Bright Mark is a ninth-level divine art, the authority given by the Supreme Lord to the first Pope, it is not in the divine skill sequence of the Holy Power Pool, it is completely different from other divine arts......

The divine model created by the archmage and alchemist of the Alchemy Empire probably also includes the summoning radiant angel of the golden horn...... Victor mused, continuing to listen to Father Miller's account.

"I can use holy power to simulate the Light Seal Divine Technique, but it doesn't last, and it's ...... It's dangerous, it's very dangerous to people. Miller's expression was a little uncomfortable, he had tried to change the soul of a wizard with a light sign, but he had killed the two wizards. He covered his mouth, coughed dryly, and changed the topic and asked, "You just said that bloodline affects character, and character determines fate...... According to you, souls are predestined, how can this be changed?"

"His Highness Randall also said that knowledge changes destiny. ”

A reserved and smug smile appeared on Victor's face, and he nodded and said, "The soul is mysterious and complex, and changing the soul will indeed cause unpredictable changes. Do you know that alienated creatures are creatures whose soul structure has changed dramatically, such as animals whose souls have been infected by witchcraft and have become alienated creatures that collect bloodline laws. ”

"The boundaries of the structure of the soul determine the form of life. You and Sylvia are both the best of the world, and you have touched the boundaries of the soul structure. You have repeatedly emphasized that the strong who have no one to control should restrain themselves to clarify themselves, otherwise they will not be themselves, which is equivalent to falling. I guess if your desires swell unchecked, the consequence is to become a ray of holy light, and Sylvia is no longer Sylvia, she is a knight of the gods through and through. ”

"The structure of the soul can be changed, and the Mark of Light is the best example of this. And also...... Caligula, huh?" Victor's sharp gaze pierced the eyes of the gods.

Miller rubbed his beard and was silent. Seeing this, Victor understood this and continued: "Caligula was on the verge of death, and his soul structure had collapsed, and if you saved him, you need to re-stabilize his soul structure, hehe, it is so easy to bring him back to life? In any case, you have the method and experience to stabilize your soul, right?"

Miller sighed and bowed his head, "It seems like this...... I don't admit it, but I'm mainly trying to save the life of the stupid big guy, and I didn't want to experiment with him, uh, of course, I did. ”

"If only you admit that you have a way to stabilize the soul structure. ”

Victor nodded, and said happily: "I've been pondering, high-level psychic warriors have built a talent tree, what should I do after that? I know now, it's to build a soul talent! Soul talent is also called soul talent, it is a model, a structural boundary, it can restrain the power of the mind, from the spread of disorder and chaos, causing the soul fire to burn violently, and then extinguish. Such a soul talent can evolve the power of the mind into the light of the mind, just as the model of divine magic turns the power of the holy into divine magic. ”

"The spread of disorderly chaos of the power of the soul...... So that's what happened. Miller muttered to himself, he finally knew why the two wizards died all at once.

Victor touched his nose and said with burning eyes: "I am the top soul warrior, I have a complete talent tree, at least two soul talents, one is an archenemy, and the other is my wisdom talent. But these are the inevitable results of bloodline, not the result of the mind dominating itself. ”

"I'm going to test this theory myself, and the first step is to fully release all my psychic powers, and still keep my soul structure stable!" he stood up, facing Miller, and said firmly, "You took action to keep me safe, when I was about to lose control." ”

Miller calculated his lifespan and a major event that would happen in the future, and made sure that he could have time in time, so his cloudy eyes turned white and gold, and made a brief prediction. He pondered for a long time, shook his head and said, "You will succeed and you will fail, and the consequence of failure is death...... I don't think there's any need to take the risk. ”

"What are the odds of failure?" asked Victor.

"..... half percent. ”

"Then try!"

"You're crazy! I can't agree!"

The corners of Victor's mouth outlined a confident smile, and he said easily: "Actually, when I saw the red beacon fire in Basel Lake, I was able to mobilize all my spiritual power. However, I didn't dare to continue. Anyway, it's also dangerous for me to go to the Sassanian Empire to fight against the centaurs, so let's just upgrade first. ”

"You have to think about it, there are no absolutes. Miller said in a deep voice.

Victor nodded and said: "It's a game to fight monsters and upgrade, but if you really want to upgrade, you still have to bear the risk...... not to mention the probability of failure is only half percent." I don't even dare to try this, what kind of kingdom guardian should I be?"

Father Miller stood up and admonished very solemnly: "Later, don't do anything superfluous, you will fail on it." ”
