Chapter 48: Lectures on Spirituality

The woman seemed to be unsane, did not understand human language, and could only scream incessantly.

Her movements are more like instincts, a living being's stress response to sudden changes in the external environment.

Kevin looked around at the reactions of the people around him, and found that they were not panicked at all, but instead looked at the woman with a fanatical expression, which showed that they coveted the spirit.

If it weren't for the presence of Vodorik, I'm afraid the mirror would have been snatched away long ago.

Sure enough, wizards and normal people think differently, and when they see a woman, they don't associate with ghosts and gods at all. Kevin thought to himself.

Vodoric pursed his lips, and his cold eyes revealed a bit of satisfaction, and said:

This is the attitude of wizards in the face of the unknown, we will always encounter incomprehensible phenomena on the way to explore the world, and we must not be afraid of the unknown. ”

"It's like a farmer who sees lightning and puts down his hoe in a panic and prays to heaven, how foolish! They don't know that this is a natural phenomenon caused by the convergence of thunder and lightning particles in the air and the combination of magic vortices. ”

Ironically, when spirits were first discovered, a significant number of wizards felt that spirits were the product of the creator gods, and warned the world not to step into this forbidden realm. ”

A considerable number of wizards in Vodorik's mouth are the supporters of the Faith School, and together with the New School, the two schools of the wizarding world are divided.

The new school believes that the world has its own established operating laws, which are not subject to human will, and that any phenomenon is the result of material interaction, but everyone can use the law to leverage the power of the world.

The other faction is mostly composed of stubborn old shamans, who retain the worship of the gods, believing that the gods created Rasmus and made the rise and fall of the sun and the moon. For example, magic power, spiritual power, and energy particles are all created by the gods and are just waiting for humans to discover.

To this day, neither of the two factions can convince anyone, and the faith faction insists that there are more powerful gods in the world, and Douglass has not yet become a god.

And the nascent faction could not explain all the phenomena, and the two factions were engaged in a war of words with each other, arguing endlessly.

Kevin thinks that the division into schools is a bit exaggerated, at most one has a positive attitude towards things, and the other has a negative attitude, after all, the faith school also advocates wizards to explore the unknown.

"Before I introduce Psiology, I would like to remind you that although the prospects of Spiritualism are broad, everything is still in the hypothetical stage. Vodorik glanced at the lecture hall and said lightly.

Everyone immediately changed their faces, looked at each other, and put on an expression of being trapped, and the corners of Kevin's mouth couldn't help twitching.

Hypothesis means imagination, not to mention that Vodoric also added the word everything, indicating that spirituality is just a castle in the air, and it is still unknown whether it can become a fact.

Ignoring the reaction of the crowd, Vodorik explained to himself:

"The reason why all animists, men and women, young and old, flowers, birds, fish, insects, birds, animals, birds, animals, and animals, respond to external stimuli, rather than stones and earth, is that they all have souls.

The soul is the only evidence that all living beings have ever existed, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the source of life, which naturally becomes one of the targets of wizards. But we have tried various methods, using spiritual power, witchcraft, alchemy devices, etc., but we have not been able to extract the soul from the living body. ”

Vodorik paused, and changed his words: "Until the appearance of the spirit body brought an opportunity for soul research, the one imprisoned in this mirror is the sixth spirit banshee." ”

"Four years ago, there were a steady stream of wizards killed in attacks at the same site, and no one from apprentices to full-fledged wizards could detect who had attacked. The incident eventually alarmed several councillors of the Wizarding Alliance, who went to investigate the ruins and announced that a soul mutant had been discovered. ”

"When a living soul dies, the soul is supposed to pass away, but there are exceptions. Under certain special circumstances, the soul can be preserved and form a spirit body. ”

Vodorik raised his palms high, shadow particles encircling his fingertips, his lips moved slightly, and he silently recited the incantation, and in an instant, his five fingers turned into five black-scaled serpents.

"Whoosh!"

He put his palm in the mirror and stabbed the banshee in the stomach.

"Ahhh

The snake's head pierced the banshee's body, and the banshee howled, and her body became more transparent.

"See? Even the shulker snake hand I cast can't annihilate the spirit, and not only that, if it weren't for the mirage of the mirror, you wouldn't even be able to see the banshee's phantom, that's the weirdness of the spirit. ”

Vodorik is the head of the courtyard, a first-level pinnacle existence, and even he can't solve the spirit body. Thinking of this, everyone looked at the banshee with a little more fear.

"Spirits, as dangerous as they are, are the only soul-like substances that have been successfully captured. So far, the wizarding world has not understood how souls are transformed into spirits, but it doesn't matter, from the reverse deduction, it is still possible for us to grasp the mysteries of souls and step into the forbidden area of living beings. Vodorik said slowly.

"The soul... "Kevin muttered under his breath, thinking with his toes how much impact a wizard with a soul would have on the whole world.

At that time, the Bloodline will not be qualified to be called the two major power systems with the wizards, and the wizarding system will truly dominate Rasmus.

Then, Vodoric asked, "Let's discuss, if you really understand the soul code, how do you think you can use it?"

After receiving permission, everyone hurriedly communicated with each other, and when they listened to the lecture, they held back their words.

"It is possible to create a kind of sorcery that specializes in attacking souls. Kevin was the first to stand up, and in the mentor he also wanted to show himself.

Vodorik did not comment, and then a dozen people stood up one after the other and expounded their ideas, some talking about reading memories, and some talking about enslaving their opponents.

After no one answered, Vodorik spoke: "There are three conjectures about the use of souls. ”

"The first conjecture is that the soul will be extracted and transplanted into a dead object. For example, by integrating the soul of a swordsman into the body of an alchemy golem, not only does the wizard not need to be distracted and manipulated, but the golem can also exert more powerful combat power. It can also be integrated into a witchcraft to form a tool spirit, and into a wizard's tower to form a tower spirit. ”

"Isn't this an otherworldly version of artificial intelligence?" Influenced by his previous life, Kevin immediately thought of robots.

And the range of applications is wider, he has already imagined the scenes of his future life in his mind, the door can speak, the chair will run over by itself, the dishes and chopsticks can automatically serve rice, and all dead things can have souls.
