Chapter 593: The Controversy of Direction
The old wizard's mood at the moment was like inadvertently knocking over a table of rare potions, but he inadvertently got a new type of potion, and he suffered a heavy loss but not all gains, but he gave the new potion he had harvested to another person, intending to stop the loss, but found that the potion was actually priceless, and he regretted that he wanted to gouge out his eyeballs, throw them on the floor and stomp them twice.
Tofowen has always considered the revival of the Sun Elves bloodline to be his greatest achievement, and adding up all the arcane warriors of the Faceless, including the Wise Gnomes, is no match for a single finger of the Sun Elves. Little Victor was secretly sent to Sylvia by him, but Sylvia didn't need to receive his favor. She said that Tofowen was allowed to make a condition to her during her lifetime, but did not promise to meet it. This is actually a merciless mockery of the old wizard.
The Divine Knight is both a symbol of knightly kingship against the theocracy of the Church, and also a great enemy of royal power. The king is always swept away in front of the god knights, and the rise of the Iron Mountain Empire on the bones of the old empire is enough to prove the inevitability of the god knights to break the secular political balance. The fall of Ryan August was the result of Cambes' attempt to divert the internal turmoil caused by Sylvia to the outside, but the kingdoms joined forces to counteract and limit the political turmoil to the interior of the Kingdom of Cambys.
No one can call the shots for the god knights, and Toferwen can't tell Sylvia, I found you a little man, I hope that love life can help you block the infection of the soul by the elemental sea, give Gombis a little more time, don't rush to lift August off the throne, let us transfer the internal contradictions to the outside again.
The Faceless Ones stealthily planted Victor by Sylvia's side, which Sylvia could consider malicious, even though she was the biggest beneficiary. So, Toffowen apologized to Sylvia.
Things were out of Tofven's control, and luckily, Roland solved Gombis's biggest problem without moving. She facilitated the exchange of hostages between August and the House of York, and allowed Edward to visit the Centaur Hills to encircle the Sun Elves, who were not well-known at the time, leading to a reconciliation between the Queen and the Grand Duke, laying the foundation for the political structure of the descendants of the royal family of Cambys.
However, the Auguste family also lost the favor of His Royal Highness Randall.
The sun elves and the female god knights are attracted to each other, and Victor and Sylvia are bound to come together. But Tofervin couldn't help but think that Gombis would be perfect without Sylvia...... Queen Roland August has appointed Victor as her husband, and His Majesty Prince Victor August will lead the Auguste family to the throne of the King of God.
This is destined to be an old man's regret and fantasy, and Tofowen knows that no one can manipulate His Highness Randall today, not even Sylvia. He didn't even follow the path of the Sword Saint Draven, analyzing some of the mysteries of the laws of the world, and creating the theory of the secret method of the soul and bloodline, and the light of his wisdom even overshadowed the first Pope Enoch, who was not the authoritarian leader of the human kingdom, but who secretly pushed for great changes in the kingdoms and the church.
No one could see all of Victor's thoughts, and Tofwen intuitively believed that he could quietly usurp the greatest benefit and power in this series of changes. The most frustrating thing is that no one seems to be able to change this outcome, so they can only silently accept the guidance of His Highness Randall, and then compete with other forces to try to seek a higher position in the new pattern of the human kingdom.
Now, Randall's Highness has calculated on my head...... Well, my old bones are still a little useful to Victor, so let me accompany you through this game of chess to see who is the winner in Auguste or York...... Victor, your weakness is actually Sylvia...... Your Highness Randall, at least this game, you are doomed!
The cloudy and dim eyeballs obscured the sharp light, and Toferwen said respectfully: "Your Highness Sylvia, I'm afraid I will soon have to put forward conditions to you, please help me make a choice." ”
Marquis Goron stepped forward, personally lifted the weak old wizard from the floor, and motioned for the attendant to push a wooden wheelchair over.
When Toferwen sat in the wheelchair, Sylvia held her cheek and asked with interest, "What choice?" ”
"You'll find out soon. ”
Tofowen nodded, smiled kindly and said to Victor: "Your Highness Randall, the spiritual meditation potion you want has been successfully concocted, in addition to this, I have another achievement here, a potion that can enhance the power of the mind, do you want to see it?"
The dark golden aura in Victor's eyes slowly turned, and under the reflection of the dim candle flame, it looked mysterious and profound. He stroked his chest and smiled, "Of course, this is our previous agreement. But I now want to know more if my brute fighter slave is still alive, and how many secrets does the master unearth from it?"
"It's all in the back room, the four highnesses, please come with me, the other adults, please stay here for the time being, the attendants have prepared a lounge for you upstairs. ”
The rain shelter road leading to the back house is a straw hut on top of the grass hut, the two sides of the rammed earth and wheat straw to build an earthen wall, on both sides of the road placed a lighting brazier at intervals, the wall has a row of ventilation windows, the wet and cold mist suppresses the open flame, the light in the corridor flickering, everyone walks by, leaving many changing shadows on the wall and the ground.
Victor looked around and said suspiciously, "This seems to be an ordinary farmstead, the walls on both sides are broken when they are hit, and there is no defensive function...... The layout of August's Secret Fortress is so simple? Are you not afraid that this place will be infiltrated and broken by foreign enemies?"
Williams pushed Tofowen's wheelchair and said with a smile, "Master Tofowen is there, and that's our secret castle." He's not here, it's just an ordinary farm in the Kite Castle House of Internal Affairs. ”
Victor was stunned for a moment, gave a thumbs up, and praised: "Very clever method." ”
The back room was actually the farm's large storehouse, which was used to store seeds and tools, and the area was not too small, but now it became the potion laboratory of Tofowen. The Faceless Guard pushed the door open, and Victor saw a bearded, bearded-headed gnome snarling loudly at the lab attendants:
"Clumsy pig, the seeds of the evening primrose should be mixed with the sap of the rhizome of the fig tree, mixed with water in a ratio of 4:1, and the time to boil half a small hourglass, how many times do I have to emphasize such a simple thing? That idiot, you took the wrong flask...... Bastard, beware of the green lizard's venom, if it leaks on the floor, I'll let you lick it clean with your tongue!"
The dwarf was unkempt, his beard and hair were in a clump, he didn't know how long it had been untrimmed, and his short body was full of momentum, like a tyrant in this room, and the attendants around him did not dare to challenge his authority, and honestly obeyed his command and accepted his violent temper.
A pleased smile appeared on Tofowen's old face, and he introduced in a low voice, "Green, the best potion master of the August family...... I relied on witchcraft, he relied on talent and passion. ”
"Grimm, come here!" Williams Detoforvin beckoned.
Only then did the dwarf pharmacist see Toferwen and the others, he walked over slowly, nodding to Marquis Goron and Williams on the way, his eyes skimmed over Sylvia, who had weakened his sense of presence, and stayed on Victor's body for a few seconds, and then waved his arm at Tofowen with a straight face, and complained loudly: "Father, the long-tailed bat droppings from the Dusk Forest have not been transported yet, and my work can no longer be carried out. ”
"The Lord Regent is here, you ask him. Tofowen said with a smile.
Williams said with a little embarrassment: "I don't think there's any difference between the long-tailed bats in the Twilight Forest and the long-tailed bats in the Gambis Mountains. ”
Green jumped to his feet and roared, "Long-tailed bats are all the same, but they eat different things, can the feces they pull out be the same?"
The regent said decisively: "It will take a little time...... Well, for two and a half months, I promise you'll get the long-tailed bat droppings of the Dusk Forest. Now, please bring over the test data of the orc barbarian fighter and give it to His Highness Randall...... and his wife. ”
Hearing this, the dwarf raised his hand to wipe the hair covering his eyes, looked at Victor again with a look of surprise, and asked loudly, "You are His Highness Randall, the master of Caligula......?" Just take two potions......"
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get it! Otherwise, you will have to wait four months for the droppings of the long-tailed bats." Williams scares, as if Dwarf Green isn't working for the August family by asking for bat droppings.
"Okay, okay, okay! I'll go get it. The dwarf moved his short legs and ran quickly to the closet behind him.
The corners of Williams' mouth rose triumphantly, and he turned to Silvia to explain: "Green doesn't know etiquette, he doesn't care about aristocratic affairs, he's a pure pharmacist. ”
Sylvia smiled slightly, and said in a soft voice: "I will not blame him for his rudeness, but appreciate his dedication to academics." ”
Lorraine, the dwarf, walked back with three and five parchment scrolls, and handed them to the regent with an emphasis in his mouth, "Two and a half months?
"Two and a half months. Williams took the scroll and handed it to Victor.
Looking at His Highness Randall, who was handsome and had dark gold in his eyes, unfolded the scroll and took a quick look, Lorraine asked again without giving up: "Who is that...... The owner of Acre, can you get Acre to cooperate with me in two small experiments?"
"Excuse me. Victor casually asked, "Lorraine...... Green...... Is Lorraine your brother?"
"My dear brother!" muttered the dwarf apothecary dissatisfiedly, "I am ashamed of that shorty man who does not do his job. ”
Is it really a blood brother? Isn't it a dwarf who has been transformed by a potion by Wizard Tofowen?
Victor suspected that the two gnomes were also special forms of arcane warriors, and although he didn't like to experiment with humans on drugs, he wouldn't question Tofer's style.
Well, this phenomenon has always existed even in the earth world...... Victor jotted down the contents of the scroll, turned his head and asked, "Master Tofowen, where is my barbarian slave?"
"In the back dungeon, alive and healthy. ”
Dwarf Green panicked a little, and shouted in a sharp voice, "You can't take it! No! I still have a lot of experiments to do, and I have to concoct a potion that can make the orc barbarian fighters sleepy, weak, and poisoned......"
Victor rudely interrupted the dwarf apothecary's words and asked, "Then is it still alive and well?"
"This ...... Who knows? You ask me, how can I know?" Green panicked even more, looked at Williams as if asking for help, and pleaded: "Don't let him take the orcs away, you're the regent, you have the final say...... Buy the orcs with gold and deduct them from my annuity!"
"After 17 years of your annuity advance, there is no money left in my pocket for you to owe on credit. ”
Williams ignored the apothecary master who owed a lot of debts, and said to Victor, "Your Highness Randall, you can take the barbarian fighter slaves away at any time. ”
Victor smiled mildly, nodded and said, "I'm not going to take the orc away, and I don't object to Master Green using him for drug experiments. However, this will have to wait until I first study the bloodline talent of the Barbarian Fighter to see if I can simulate the secret method of the Soul and Blood Bloodline of the Barbarian Fighter's blood rage. I hope that Master Tofo will cooperate with me. ”
"Promise him, father, promise him! please......" Green pleaded as he threw himself in front of the wheelchair, his hands clasped to his chest.
A bearded dwarf poses as a child begging an adult for honey...... This style of painting is a bit beautiful.
"Green, you go to work first. I'm sure Randall's Highness won't take the orcs away. ”
Toferwen's words were clearly more effective than the regent, and Green obediently returned to his workbench. The old wizard glanced up at Victor, closed his eyes, and said with a tired and weak expression:
"I'm old and my days are running out, and I don't have as much energy to do all my research...... As for the orc brute fighters, I 'see' that they are close to humans, but very different bloodlines. Orc brute fighters are not like goblins, gnolls, ogres, kobolds, they see in my eyes all medicinal properties. This is enough to prove that the barbarians, like the elves, are close relatives, or branches, of humans. Hundreds of human bloodline changes contain the bloodline of the barbarians, but those are the invisible bloodlines of the human race, and it is difficult to stimulate them with medicine, while the bloodlines of the barbarians have been solidified. ”
"However, although the bloodlines of the barbarians are not as complex and changeable as the bloodlines of humans, they are all biased towards the ability of blood, bloodthirsty, madness, boiling blood, etc......" Toferwen shook his head in confusion, "I can't see the higher life forms of the barbarians, the strange thing is that the blood rage of the barbarian fighters can stimulate their bloodlines and combine them into a variety of abilities, such as physical toughness, ignoring pain, strength and agility growth, and even mental sharpness...... I can't explain this phenomenon, but I suspect that the high-ranking brute fighters may have extraordinary abilities to alter reality, similar to sorcery, which can both strengthen themselves and influence their opponents...... I can only be sure of one thing, Blood Fury is very much like the Fighting Qi of a Knight, or it can be called Blood Qi, it is an ability that belongs to the Brute Fighter and cannot be replicated. ”
Victor nodded with burning eyes and said in a deep voice, "This is exactly what I need." According to my vision, a high-level psychic warrior should have a variety of bloodline talent combinations, and high-level bloodline talents need some kind of special energy stimulation to use. Otherwise, relying solely on pure spiritual power to promote high-level talents, the transcendent effect will not be sustainable. The fighting spirit of the knight and the blood anger of the brute fighter provided me with an idea, to use spiritual power to promote special life energy, and then use special life energy to stimulate bloodline talent. ”
"For example, the combination of the talents of the Psychic Warrior is like a model of divine magic, and the life energy is like the holy power of the Priest, and when the two are combined, a high-level Psychic Warrior is born. ”
"The fighting spirit of the knight and the holy power of the clergy cannot be copied, in comparison, the blood anger of the barbarian fighter is closer to the bottom law of the world. As for the life energy of human beings, I prefer the huge life intent, if I can use spiritual power to restrain and mobilize the indentary, it may be the path of a high-level spiritual warrior. ”
Victor calmed down his excitement and said solemnly: "Studying the way blood rage works can provide me with a reference. ”
Williams couldn't help but ask, "Victor, how do you know that blood wrath is not an ability given by the god Donal to brute fighters?"
"Even so, he can't transcend the change of the laws of the world's origin!" Victor said categorically: "The knight's fighting spirit and elemental nodes come from the knight's special bloodline, and the holy power comes from the believers' belief in the Lord of Radiance, and the supreme lord transforms faith into holy power, which essentially belongs to the category of spiritual power; what is that blood rage? At least from the current conclusion, it is closer to life energy." ”
Marquis Goron showed a thoughtful expression, and after a moment, he said slowly: "The source blood secret method taught by Lord Nelson is very clever, and Master Toofwen has tracked down the little attendants who have practiced the level 1 source blood secret method for 6 months, and it can be determined that they do not take the body strengthening potion, and there is a great chance that they will surpass ordinary elite soldiers and reach twice the physical fitness of ordinary people. If they used the powerful potion made by the Kite Castle together, the cultivation effect would be significantly enhanced, and the cultivation time would be greatly shortened. ”
"The Source Blood Secret Method is significant because it saves resources and saves time. Marquis Goron shook his head and said, "However, we haven't seen a psychic warrior with bloodline talent. Nelson and Caligula are powerful, but they are not the psychic warriors described by His Highness. ”
Williams nodded again and again, and said, "Victor, we believe in the correctness of your Psychic Bloodline Theory, because we have already achieved some results. However, according to your theory, it is obviously more complicated to combine multiple human bloodline changes into a bloodline talent, and there is only one variation of the knight's bloodline, and it is easier to strengthen the knight's bloodline with training methods and psychic power. ”
He paused, and then said euphemistically: "Master Tofowen's energy is not as strong as before, and it is difficult for him to take care of the two different spiritual bloodline research directions of ordinary warriors and knights...... I sincerely hope that Your Highness will cooperate with the Kite Castle and delve into the secret method of the soul of the knight's bloodline. After all, psychic warriors only exist in theory, and we don't see instances. ”
Victor glanced back at Sylvia, pondered for a moment, raised an eyebrow, and said, "See the example? ”
He raised his right hand, and the blue-black air flow appeared and surrounded, instantly turning into a sharp wind blade, and with a "bang", a wound was cut in his palm, and red blood beads slid down the white and slender palm.
