541. This time there was a bumper harvest
Scott was confident, but Mr. Jeffrey wasn't false either.
He spoke through the silver colossus—
"Even the real Ymir can't outdo my soldiers!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the silver colossus moved in unison.
Fifteen colossias scattered one after another, forming a semi-encircled shape, converging towards Scott's five ice giants.
As they run, their arms deform again.
Some are elongated into spears, some are thinned into blades, and some are enlarged into heavy hammers.
The five ice giants opened their mouths and roared at the same time, spitting out a pale blue cold air from their mouths.
The cold air spread, and a layer of frost quickly formed on the surface of the silver colossus's body.
Their running slowed down.
At the same time, the five ice giants stretched out their hands in unison.
The invisible chill condensed into tangible blades of ice in their hands.
Soon, they strode forward, shields made of ice and broadswords, and headed for the silver colossus.
The smooth surface of the silver colossus sprouted countless blades, swirling to clear the frost that covered them.
At this time, the ice giant's incomparably huge long knife in his hand had already been raised.
The huge creations that belonged to two formations were united in the next second.
The silver light flashed wildly, and the cold air swirled.
Mercury poured into the ground, and ice chips flew.
"They can't break through the Ice Giant's defenses!"
Helena looked at the battle below, surprised.
Indeed, all the weapons in the body of the silver colossus were blocked by the ice shield in the hands of the ice giant and the ice armor on his body.
Their attacks left some traces, but they were never able to completely break the Ice Giant's defenses.
The Ice Giant's Ice Shield and Ice Armor have been repairing automatically.
On the other hand, the silver colossus's fluid, mercury-like body could not stop the ice giant's broadsword.
They are also eroded by the cold even if they are cut into several pieces.
Frost, almost pervasive, hinders their movement at all times.
"How is that possible?"
Mr. Jeffrey could not quite accept such an outcome.
"It's not impossible."
Scott talks to him.
"Time is moving forward, wizarding magic is evolving, and the overall trend of discovery is always moving forward, no matter what."
"Arrogance!"
Mr. Jeffrey retorted loudly.
"Could it be that the puppet you conjured up casually has surpassed the Emir carefully crafted by our 'Agaste' alchemist?"
"As I said, they're just low-profile imitations of Ymir."
Scott spoke calmly.
"Whether it's pure physical strength or the use of magic, they're far inferior to Ymir."
"There's only one thing, and that's their defense."
"I'm confident in that, their defenses have surpassed their prototype Ymir."
Mr. Jeffrey was silent.
Helena said, "You don't need to have the same powerful attack power as Ymir to deal with these dolls. ”
Skoll nodded, "Presumably because of the nature of their bodies that can separate, converge, and recover, Mr. Jeffrey barely adds defenses to them."
"I haven't lost yet."
Mr. Jeffrey's voice came again.
"My soldiers will never be destroyed, even if their bodies are cut into multiple parts, they will recover on their own!"
"That's true."
Scott looked at the battlefield below.
The silver colossus is separating, converging, and recovering again and again under the attack of the Ice Giant.
The Ice Giants tried to freeze some of them, but the Silver Colossus always came out just before the frost began to condense.
Judging from the scene, the five ice giants were crushing the fifteen silver colossias and beating them.
But judging from the actual effect, neither side can destroy the other.
"Don't forget, I'm not in the war yet."
Scott drew his wand.
"You still have magic?"
Mr. Jeffrey was even more surprised.
"You should be well aware of the setup inside the Tower of Gangenir."
Scott didn't hide it either.
"I got a lot of pure magic power there, and after making [magic crystals], I completed the 'Super Demon Promotion' ceremony by the way."
"I see, they really succeeded."
Mr. Jeffrey's voice suddenly became very decadent.
At the same time, all the silver colossi stopped fighting.
Their bodies suddenly lost their shape and spread out to the ground like normal mercury.
Scott also lowered his wand-holding hand.
Next, Mr. Jeffrey's soul flew out of the shadows inside the pyramid.
Stopped in mid-air, opposite Scott.
Without Scott asking, he spoke to himself.
"The Tower of Gungnir is the most illustrious alchemical masterpiece of the 'Agaste' school."
"It has always been a guard, protecting our base camp 'Golden Palace' from invasion."
"If there are no damn traitors, the 'Golden Palace' hidden at the bottom of the tower will be the safest place in the world."
"The safest place?"
Helena couldn't help but question.
"Scott made it past the upside-down tower and entered the 'Golden Palace' with his own strength."
Mr. Jeffrey did not get angry, but patiently explained.
"That's because they've modified it."
"Ever since the prophecy of the Successor appeared, the tower has had two operating mechanisms."
Scott immediately thought, "Separate against the Holy See's extraordinary armaments, and ordinary wizards?" ”
"That's right."
Mr. Jeffrey confirmed his guess.
"There is no way for the papal seekers to survive when they enter, but the other wizards have to face only a test."
Helena asked, "What if the Holy See forces other wizards to enter and take the treasure for them?" ”
"Impossible."
Mr. Jeffrey concluded.
"Wizards and the Holy See are mortal enemies, and those wizards who will defect to the Holy See will not have the ability to enter the 'Golden Palace'."
"That's hard." Scott said.
If it weren't for his special transfiguration talent and the creation of several powerful "summoned beasts", he would never have been able to break through those levels.
Not to mention, the shadow curse in the tower is also deadly.
Scott was able to pass because he had several treasures on him that could withstand the curse.
Otherwise, the Tower to the Center of the Earth would not have become the forbidden land of death in the story.
Scott, though, was a little curious.
"That tower can tell the Holy See's extraordinary armament? Are they different from other wizards? ”
"Because of faith."
Mr. Jeffrey and Ravenclaw gave the same answer.
"I see."
Scott immediately understood what they meant.
It's still the same sentence -
Magic is the power of believing.
It's all magic too, but the magic fluctuations vary greatly from person to person.
Not to mention the inheritance of different users of mana.
Compared to wizards, druids' magic is extraordinarily pure and closer to nature.
And the Holy See's extraordinary armament, which has been brainwashed by the Holy See, must have the firmest faith.
Unwavering faith is enough to change their hearts and, in turn, their magical nature.
"Absolutely pure magic, back then, it was just a conjecture."
Mr. Jeffrey spoke again, full of emotion.
"No one can be sure if their conversion device is really useful."
"Now it seems that they did succeed."
"How lucky, Scott."
"It's pure magic that has been transformed for more than a thousand years."
"It is also the most precious gift for the heirs."
Scott smiled.
"I owe thanks, thanks to the ancient wizards of the 'Agaste' school, so I have inherited your original ideals."
"That's not my ideal anymore."
Mr. Jeffrey was a little depressed.
"At least that's what you once wanted," Scott said. ”
"That's right."
Mr. Jeffrey laughed.
"But now, I just want to be reborn!"
As he spoke, his soul turned into a puff of gray smoke and rolled towards Scott.
Sensing the disgusting evil magic in the gray mist, Scott raised his wand just in time.
"Divine Guard!"
The silver light suddenly bloomed, like the moonlight at night.
A sturdy peregrine falcon emerged from the silver glow and flew away against the gray mist.
Everywhere they went, the gray fog dissipated.
Peregrine falcons swirled and flew in the billowing gray mist, the mist thinning out under the silver light.
A scream came from the fog.
Immediately afterward, all the fog dissipated invisibly.
"Is he dead?" Helena asked.
"If we hadn't destroyed his Horcruxes, he wouldn't have died."
Scott withdrew his wand.
"But I guess he's getting weak."
Rimbaud asked, "Why didn't he hide first?" If he hid, Scott might not be able to find him at all. ”
Scott shrugged his shoulders, "He knows he doesn't have a chance anymore, and this could be the last time to let go?" ”
He was not interested in delving into what Mr. Jeffrey really thought, but went straight to action, jumping straight forward.
With an eagle's cry, Horus flew over.
It happened to catch the falling Scott and carry him towards the pyramid.
Upon getting close to the pyramid, Scott jumped off Horus's back and entered the pyramid again through a large hole in the wall.
He stood at the entrance of the cave and waited for a while.
It didn't take long for [Magic Mirror], the small frame, and Helena to float over.
Scott walked into the studio where the leather scroll was kept.
Mana perception is maximized.
It didn't take long for Scott to find the most special one among the countless animal skin scrolls.
"This should be a Horcrux......"
He walked over to the stone shelf and stretched out his hand to take out the scroll.
"You...... Think...... What are you ...... doing?"
Mr. Jeffrey reappeared.
"Stop ......"
His soul had become almost completely transparent, and his tone of voice had become a little sluggish.
Obviously, he was weakened to the extreme.
Scott ignored his obstruction and took out the leather scroll.
After getting his hands on it, he was even more sure of his judgment.
This is the Horcrux.
"Just ......"
After finding the Horcruxes, he was a little troubled.
"How do I destroy it?"
In the "original book", the Horcruxes were destroyed by the Fire Charm, the Gryffindor Sword, and the Basilisk's fangs.
But Scott doesn't have a fire curse, and he doesn't have a sword or fangs.
He placed the scroll on the ground and tried "Gangenir".
Not only the original version of "Gangenir", but also the "Gangenir" fused with the four elements, he also tried again, but he never managed to destroy the seemingly fragile scroll.
Ravenclaw says, "You have only two choices, learn the Fire Charm, or find the advanced knowledge of 'Gangenir'." ”
Scott said, "I'll pick the second one. ”
At this moment, the beast skin scroll that had been attacked repeatedly unfolded automatically.
"Congratulations, Inheritor."
Scott's voice was heard in Mr. Jeffrey's head again.
"You are already qualified to inherit all our knowledge and wealth......"
"Thanks, I know."
Scott decisively began to run Occlumency.
He then instructed Rimbaud to grab the scroll and fly out of the pyramid, and had the Ice Giant create a huge piece of ice that froze the scroll in the middle of the ice.
Mr. Geoffrey's remnant also flew out with the Horcrux, guarding near the large block of ice.
Scott didn't care where he went.
"It's a pity that 'Yggdrasil' was disabled just now."
He waved his wand and tried, but sure enough, it didn't work.
"Otherwise, banishing to another dimension is the best seal."
"That's enough."
Ravenclaw said with a smile.
"As long as you don't get up close, Horcruxes will never affect you. Even in close proximity, it will have little effect on you. ”
"It really doesn't affect me to take things."
Scott turned to look at the stone shelf stacked with countless animal skin scrolls.
"But that evil wave of magic makes me not want to get too close."
Ravenclaw nodded, "Horcruxes are indeed the most evil invention. ”
Scott had already pulled out several scrolls of animal skins and opened them to browse.
"It's a way of alchemy I've never seen before."
"Huh? It's a lost potion recipe! ”
"A couple of improved spells, ancient version."
"Oh! There's a complete magic planting plan! ”
At this moment, Scott is like a mouse that has fallen into a rice tank, and his happiness is boundless.
Instead of rushing to find the advanced knowledge of "Gangnir", he did not immediately study and learn other new knowledge, but began to sort through all the animal skin scrolls.
It took him two full days.
After sorting, registering, and numbering, Scott moved all the hides out of the pyramid.
Then, enter the [Eye of Odin] space outside of the crater's range and place them in your study.
Looking at the bookshelves that took up two full walls, Scott smiled with satisfaction.
"There are 241 pieces of alchemy-related knowledge, of which 68 are of great reference value."
"There are 196 potion recipes, of which 18 are still usable."
"There are 283 pieces of knowledge related to space magic, of which 91 are inspiring to me."
"164 pieces of knowledge related to black magic."
"There are 573 pieces of knowledge related to magic spells, of which 39 are still practical."
"The others are astronomy, divination, magical beasts and other knowledge, a total of 1,637 articles."
"Anyway, it's a bumper harvest!"
"Congratulations, Scott."
Ravenclaw's frame is hung on the wall, and she looks a little agitated in this portrayal.
"Inheriting all the knowledge of an ancient school, you can create a deep wizard family, the top one."
"This ......"
Scott scratched his head and changed the subject.
"But I have never found the advanced knowledge of 'Gangenir', and I have not found any hidden secret rooms in the pyramid."
"Maybe you should ask Mr. Jeffrey." Helena suggested.
"I'll think again."
If you can. Scott didn't want to talk to Mr. Jeffrey in his current state of remnants.
