Chapter 39: Angel
It wasn't until he pushed open the door from the blacksmith shop that Mo Yan remembered that the drawings of the patterns on the knife had not yet been drawn, and he was a little too proud just now. The pen and fun pavilion www.biquge.info patted his head, and Mo Yan had no intention of going back. Since I've forgotten it, forget it, there is no need for the double knife to be the same as in the movie.
Too complicated patterns are a bit of a mother, after all, the weapon only needs to be sharp and tough.
Mo Yan, who had been busy all morning, looked up at the sun in the sky, only to find that it was noon. After casually eating some barbecue meat and bread on the side of the road, Mo Yan, who filled his stomach, came to the Mage Tower again.
Mo Yan, who had already understood how the "Shining Starlight" worked, stomped his feet on the teleportation array three times and recited the code words. Then Mo Yan, who stood stupidly for a while, found that he was still in the hall, instead of being teleported into the old mage's room like yesterday.
Mo Yan looked down at the magic circle on the ground, repeated all the actions again, and recited the code words word by word, making sure that it was not because he was reading too fast that this teleportation array could not operate, but the final result was still the same.
Did you change your code? You only visited yesterday, and today you changed your password. This is clearly the meaning of not letting himself come again, don't you want a full set of drawings anymore but Mo Yan thought about it and felt that it was unlikely, he didn't offend him in any way.
"Gula is out today. A girl's voice sounded behind Mo Yan, crisp and with a hint of coldness, which was familiar to Mo Yan in his memory. If memory serves, her name is Angel, a girl who loves to read and is severely short-sighted.
On the way, she contributed a lot of silver coins to listen to Mo Yan's story.
"Is that old man's name Gullah? This is the first time I've ever known his name. Mo Yan turned his head to look at the girl who walked in from the main entrance and said, "When will he come back?" I have some mysterious technology from the East, and I want to share it with him and study it. ”
"Is it the retina or something you talked about?" Angel squinted her eyes and approached, confirming that the person in front of her was the one she met on the road, and then continued: "Actually, I am more interested in your knowledge than he is, Gula has always been interested in the elements, maybe the things you said are not of much use to him, after all, he has not been involved much in the field of undead and human bodies. ”
"Then the corpse of that lord ......," Mo Yan asked with some surprise.
Since the body of which lord can be transported back, then it must be necessary to do some research, but listening to Angel's meaning, Gula seems to be unfamiliar with the undead, but if this is the case, then what is the matter with the magic circle yesterday? He can recognize the magic circle that changed Camos at a glance.
"That's for me, this time Gula took me to help, and I helped with all those corpses. Angel said: "'Time is eternal' is the code word that came to my room, if you are interested, you can come to my room as a guest, and the body is there now." ”
Now that the girl has been invited, Mo Yan, who doesn't want to run in vain, is naturally better than obeying his fate. What's more, Camos's problem may involve more in terms of the undead, and it seems that it is the most accurate way to brush the favor of this girl who is half an acquaintance. The same way of teleporting, but with a change in code.
In the white flash, Mo Yan came to the girl's room, a place that did not look gloomy, and many places were similar to Gula's room. It's just that the amount of books is much more than Gulla's room, and almost half of the area is full of books, which can almost be regarded as a library. All kinds of books are arranged on the tall and top-high shelves, neatly and neatly not at all like the mess of Gula there.
"I thought all the mages, the rooms were like those of Gulla. Mo Yan saw a strange looking mouse in a small hourglass, the figure shining as if it was being teleported, and the image was constantly changing, and most of the time it was dead.
"Gula has a lot to do, he spends most of his time outside and rarely returns to the Mage Guild. Angel walked over to an iron bed covered with a white cloth, lifted the cloth from it, revealing Maris, who was tied to it and firmly fastened, and said, "So I rarely tidy up my room, and I am not like him." If he hadn't asked me for help this time, I wouldn't have even left Giza. ”
Lord Maris is dead, but his body is still moving, which is strange to Mo Yan. Except for the zombies he saw in the movie, he had never seen such a state, Maris was tied to the iron bed in a zigzag shape, he had no shelter on his body, and all his organs were exposed.
His chest had been opened, and he had been glaring at Angel furiously, but no sound came out. I don't think there are lungs anymore, and even if I still have vocal cords, it's useless, so it won't bother people to make noises.
"You removed all his entrails, so that means...... You know a lot about the human body, but you don't know what the retina is, and that's weird. Mo Yan looked at Maris and asked strangely, "Anyway, why can he still move like this?
"I know the heart, lungs, liver, intestines, but I've never heard of the retina. Angel looked at Maris and said, "His body has been eroded by the breath of hell, and now he is a living corpse that can only attack. The soul that originally lived in this body had already left for the underworld, and it was just a moving corpse that remained here. ”
"Without the help of a microscope, it's really hard to understand something more subtle. Mo Yan understood what the problem was, took a small spoon from the table next to him, pulled out Maris's eyeball, pointed to the nerve that was still connected, and said: "Generally speaking, our people there call this the optic nerve, and it links ......."
Mo Yan used ready-made teaching aids to move the things on the biology book intact. Angel, on the other hand, listened and memorized her handwriting, occasionally trying to figure out a picture. But without the help of a microscope, there was no way for her to see something more subtle.
"What is the principle of the microscope you are talking about?" Angel had been listening to Mo Yan mention this instrument and asked, "If it's not difficult, I might be able to find someone to make it." ”
"It has to be two crystals that are completely clear, or something like that, polished like this. Mo Yan drew an oval lens on the drawing and said: "Then the two lenses are placed at a certain distance in a metal tube, so that you can probably magnify the items in the near distance." However, this is very technically demanding, and it will fail if the arc is not right. ”
It's hard to build a qualified microscope, but it should be okay to get a good one and be able to use it, after all, this thing is not very technical, and the only thing required is carefulness and transparency of the material. In order to better explain the principle of the microscope, Mo Yan talked about some modern optical theories.
"It's a complete system. Angel looked at the various drawings drawn on the table, as well as some of the symbols she had seen on it, and said: "Your country must be a great country, we have never imagined for tens of thousands of years, it can be so exquisite in machinery, and there are so many secrets that we have not known." ”
"It's just that the system is different. Mo Yan, who was drinking honey water and moistening his throat, shrugged his shoulders and said, "I've never seen magic before, and this is also a very new thing for me." In my hometown, there have never been such dead and moving corpses. And the magic circle that can teleport people, you have done a lot of things, and we can't achieve it yet. ”
"Every place has its traditions, and there is shamanic witchcraft in Nolan in the north. Angel waved her hand, and a book flew into her hand and said, "Then in exchange for this knowledge, I will also teach you some knowledge of magic." This is the basic division of the six forces, and the basic principles of applying them, you can take them back and take a look at them first.
Although you don't have a talent for using magic, I guess it's always good to know more. Of course, you can also ask for other things, some magic equipment that is not expensive, etc., it is a reasonable and fair request. ”
"I don't have the talent? I can tell at a glance? Don't I need to test or something? I've heard that some people do 10 years of apprenticeship just to get a chance to test. The water in Mo Yan's mouth almost squirted out, and he wiped his lips and asked. He had planned to learn magic, but now Angel was completely blocking his way.
"Well, your body doesn't have the slightest fluctuation of magical power. Angel nodded and said: "Although the magic elves do not hate you, they will never take the initiative to approach you, which means that you can never command them to achieve the effect you want, and the magic elves are the basis for using the six powers."
What's more, the ten-year apprenticeship is not to exchange them for opportunities, but to let them understand the power of magic, and whether they can become a mage or not has been determined at the first glance of being seen. ”
"You're so blunt about admitting that you're cheating people. Although Mo Yan was a little disappointed, there was nothing he could do about it, and in the end he could only say: "If you can't use it, you can't use it, it's just that you can't be a melee mage." So what did you find out about Maris? How did he become like this?"
"This is the seventh body I have dissected. Angel looked at Maris and said, "Three years ago, an archmage of the Mage Guild was wanted for conducting dangerous experiments, and this is the work he made. Using the human body as a carrier of the forces of hell in a vain attempt to create monsters that have never been more powerful than ever before, and more so some confidential things, I'm sorry I can't tell you. ”
"To rule the world?" Mo Yan asked.
"No, he was only because of the thirst for knowledge. Angel shook her head and said, "If a mage is obsessed with power, he will not go to the path of the archmage, and the only thing that can guide the mage to make him strong is the infinite thirst for knowledge in his heart." ”
That's why your eyes have become like this, Mo Yan probably understands the thoughts of these mages, and the murderer who cheated Camos has also been found. The red-robed mage he saw in Kari was the archmage wanted by the Mage Guild, and it was unfortunate that Camos had the royal blood required by the magic circle.
And I guess Maris also has it, otherwise he wouldn't have said something like that in the first place.
"If there's something you don't understand, you can come here and ask me. Angela handed the book to Mo Yan and said, "If nothing else, I will stay here all day." ”
