Chapter 56: Puppetry
"You don't have a puppet on hand now, is your safety still in question?"
Erin is not like Sun Chenghuan, she is concerned about another issue. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Should it be alright?" Barna struggled a little, "Ordinary people can't hurt me." ”
"Or I'll let Big Brother give you back another puppet, and you will use it to protect yourself first?And me! I'll look for you to protect me!" Erin interrupted Barna's stammer, "Big Brother ......"
"Don't do it yet. Barna hurriedly waved his hand, "I don't understand it now, whether it's a good thing that the puppet suddenly has a consciousness." If I accidentally awaken a puppet's self-consciousness again, that's going to be trouble......"
"What do you mean?" Sun Chenghuan was a little curious.
Barna glanced at Jessica, who had been looking at him with a curious look on his face, and shut up.
Erin glanced at Barna and shut up.
The group finally fell silent.
After walking along this branch road for about an hour, finally a small town appeared in front of several people.
Because of the peculiarity of this Astrana land, there are no cities here, so such a city without walls is already the largest human settlement in this 100-kilometer radius.
The group walked into town without much attention.
After all, it looks like a small aristocratic family traveling.
This happens a lot in a territory that is often affected by war.
Found a hotel in the town, and the group finally settled in first.
"You shouldn't be in a hurry today, right? ”
In the corner of the lobby of the hotel, Jessica looked at Sun Chenghuan, who was planning to leave by himself after arranging the group, and stopped him.
"I'm afraid it's too late tomorrow. Sun Chenghuan shook his head, "The people on the other side will definitely speed up their march when they see the cavalry that we have killed and scattered." ”
"It's fine. As long as the pursuers are more than twice as many as our defenders, Joey will strike if it is really necessary. Jessica laughed and shook her head, "Nothing dangerous. ”
"She?" Sun Chenghuan was stunned for a moment and smiled, "What can she do......"
"She's an elemental mage!" Jessica made herself serious, "When you went to assassinate the Centurion before, she said that she would have used a Firestorm magic......"
"Flame Storm?" Sun Chenghuan was stunned, "Isn't that a seventh-level magic?"
"I don't know, but even if I can use it, it will definitely wear it out to her. Jessica shook her head, "That's why she hasn't dared to use it." ”
"It's magic burning, isn't it?" said Barna, who had been silent beside him.
"Magic burning?what?" Sun Chenghuan was stunned and looked at Bana.
"An elemental magic. Barna explained, "You can increase your magic release level a lot, and the side effect is that you will be downgraded for a long time to come." ”
"You know that, too?" said Erin, with a strange look on her face, "you guys...... Isn't it a life mage?"
She almost said the word puppeteer.
"I know, but it doesn't mean I can use it. Barna's face was innocent, "This ......"
Barna shut up again.
Erin also shut up.
Sun Chenghuan had a black line in his head, and he saw it.
It turns out that from the beginning, these two people have been chatting privately with their consciousness!
No wonder two people can be quiet all the way!
"I think if it's really like you say, if there's something wrong with Cassiu, and you've warned them like that, then they'll be safe on the road next. Jessica thought for a moment and said, "Even if you want to do it, it will definitely be after crossing the Valley of the Kings and really entering the territory of Astrana, with the marching speed of their infantry, it is estimated that it will take two or three days, so don't be in too much of a hurry." ”
"Hmm...... Okay, too. Sun Chenghuan glanced at Erin and nodded.
He had to ask Erin what she had a private conversation with Barna......
"It's nothing! It's just that Barna told me something about their sect!"
Since he decided not to leave, Sun Chenghuan also stayed in the hotel, and naturally, he called Erin and Bana to his room.
Here, there are no outsiders.
So, Erin finally had no scruples when she spoke.
"The one who came back to consciousness, what's going on. Sun Chenghuan didn't bother to talk nonsense with Erin, but asked Bana directly.
"To put it simply, there was a time in our sect where a puppet became self-aware. Barna thought for a moment and said, "A lot of things happened in the sect at that time...... In the end, the puppet betrayed the division with the puppeteer, and no one knows where he went. ”
"Puppet with puppeteer?" Sun Chenghuan was stunned.
"yes!" Barna nodded, "so I don't know who's in control of whom...... So I'm a little scared. ”
"Then put the rest of your puppets with me......"
"When I have a student, I will bother you to give it back to me. Barna said earnestly, "Or...... Master, are you interested in learning puppetry?"
"What kind of puppetry, it's life magic!" Erin was speechless, "You teach me the spell, I'll try it?"
"If you want to learn, you have to learn from me......"
"Ahh
"No! no!" Barna was a little flustered for a moment, "Our sect is now a single one-way sect, and there is only one puppeteer in each generation, six puppets, and a few can be used for a few ......"
"Why don't you accept a few more students?" Sun Chenghuan was a little curious next to him.
He remembered something.
When I was very young, when I was studying my grandson's ancestral teachings at my uncle's house, I seemed to have seen a similar way of sect transmission.
However, those are some sects in the distant Penglai country......
"It's because of that puppeteer's defection!" Barna looked concerned, "Originally, there were nine puppeteers in each generation of our sect, and there were also nine puppeteers, but after that defection, there were only six left......"
"Then it's not like there's only one person per generation! Besides, do you use puppeteers to decide puppeteers, or do you use puppeteers to decide puppeteers...... Why do you feel a little messy?" Sun Chenghuan was speechless.
"Puppets can't be done by anyone!" Barna looked angry, "It's not like everything can be used as a puppet, isn't it?! Our sect has been in the sect for a thousand years...... It should be said that in the past 800 years, there have only been nine puppet materials! Even in the last few hundred years, there are no more...... As a result, the rebellion destroyed one-third of the sect's foundation. What a ......."
“...... That's why you swore an oath to me directly because I controlled your five puppets!"
In other words, how could anyone sell themselves like that!
"Yes, if I can't bring all the puppets back, how can I go to meet the ancestors and ancestors of our sect in the future, and how can I still have the face to see the master who is like my own grandfather to me!" Barna nodded, "Moreover, I also thought that in the past, the puppets always followed us and went out, which was very inconvenient, and it was also because of this...... Each generation of our puppeteers can basically only be single for the rest of their lives......"
"What's the relevance of this?" Sun Chenghuan's face was ridiculous.
"There is a girl who is so beautiful next to Lan Lan, how can she still find a wife!" Barna had a constipated expression on his face, "Especially since hundreds of years ago, it's not one, it's six...... We are not a big nobleman, how can anyone be willing to marry us......"
“...... So you think that if you become my servant, you can learn how to put away the puppet?"
"Yes, but the master has already told me that this is a magical item handed down from time immemorial......" Barna sighed, "but it doesn't matter, at least I can keep all the golems alive now......"
"And what are you going to do in the future?"
"What else can I do! All the puppets are in your hands. I can't figure out my students' ...... in the future Well, maybe our sect only has the master's servant. Barna looked helpless. "But it's fine...... The master has so many ancient magic items here, and it will definitely not be ordinary people in the future. Follow the master, our sect still has a chance to rise. ”
"I have a lot of self-soothing skills. Sun Cheng was happy, "By the way, you just said that magic is burning or something, are you familiar with all kinds of magic?"
"It's not all kinds of things, such as time magic and space magic, I don't know. Barna shook his head, "All kinds of other magic, whether it is circulating on the continent or not, our sect has collected it. ”
"What are you collecting for?" Sun Chenghuan was a little curious.
"Our puppets are not magically adaptable. Barna said seriously, "So, as long as the puppeteer's specialization level reaches a certain level, the puppet can use all of that level of magic ......."
"Specialized in magic, aren't you life magicians?"
"No, although puppet magic is born out of life and death magic, we are neither life magic nor death magic, so in fact, we have only one magic in our own sect...... Magicians of any class can become puppeteers. ”
"......" Sun Chenghuan looked at Erin.
Erin nodded: "Envy, right?"
“...... Can you teach me how to use puppetry?" asked Banadao.
Answered Erin with practical actions.
"This ...... All right. Barna nodded.
Then, he taught Sun Chenghuan a spell word by word.
Sun Chenghuan took out a puppet from the ring.
Although he had tried his best to control it, when Barna saw the puppet again, his expression was still a little tangled.
"What, you like this puppet very much?" Sun Chenghuan was happy when he saw Bana's expression.
"This ...... Actually, I prefer blue ......" Barna shook his head, "so ......"
"That's why you don't dare to make them all conscious!" Erin, who was next to her, snorted and laughed. "Are you afraid that they will be jealous and quarrel?"
Barna's face turned even redder.
"That'...... If I control it......"
"We'll talk about it then......" Barna shook his head, "I also want to try to see if others control the ability to have consciousness......
"Oh!"
Sun Chenghuan looked at the puppet lying there quietly, and recited the magic that Barna had just taught him.
Be quiet.
"Eh, strange, why can't you use it?"
Barna looked at the puppet lying there still motionless and froze.
