Chapter 204: Witch Array, Elixir, and Conspiracy
The day after the dream ended, Roman found that there was a cloud of knowledge in his mind, which was an analysis called "Linking the Witch Array".
As long as you read through this analysis, you can build a link witch array.
In this witch circle, Roman can summon the consciousness of all the objects of gift, that is, the witch circle provides a platform for wizards from all over the world to communicate with each other.
After Roman read it once, instead of being happy, he felt a chill all over his body, because it meant one thing, a powerful being was eyeing him.
Roman didn't believe that this witchcraft was a coincidence, because the construction of the witchcraft array required witchcraft materials, and the earth and sea lacked witchcraft materials, and this witchcraft array fell into the hands of others, and it had no effect.
Roman didn't have such a constraint, and the analysis of the witch array fell into his hands, such a coincidence, no one would believe it at all.
So, Roman is sure that he is caught in a conspiracy, and then spends the day going to the library to look up the materials of the Dream Butterfly, which focuses on the bounty part.
As a result, he found that his own process of receiving the gift was different from that of everyone else, and there was no such precedent in the past.
Everyone else is to meet an indescribable being and then receive gifts, but Roman is the only one who obtains it directly, without any procedure.
Combined with his own situation, Roman couldn't help but speculate that the mastermind behind the scenes probably wanted him to play a god to achieve some purpose.
As for why he found Roman instead of others, it was probably because Roman's conditions were special, he was a second-level cultivator, and there was no shortage of witchcraft materials.
In Earthsea, Roman's conditions are unique, and it is quite normal for him to be targeted by some powerful beings.
After figuring out these joints, Roman began to think about the countermeasures, whether to follow the pace of the mastermind behind the scenes.
Roman subconsciously refused, because that would be too passive, no matter what the final result was, he would fall deeper and deeper, and finally he couldn't turn back.
If you refuse to cooperate, the mastermind behind the scenes will use more means, expose more horses, and be more likely to be found out.
As long as the identity of the other party is checked, Roman has more means, although he is not strong enough, he believes that the other party also has enemies, and by borrowing strength, Roman can easily become the final winner.
So he decided that no matter what he encountered in his dream tonight, he would never cooperate.
However, after falling asleep that day, Roman sees an old acquaintance again, and he is Parker.
Roman sat on a high stone pedestal, looking down at the humble Parker at his feet, and the other party said respectfully:
"Great Being, please give your believers the gift according to the agreement!"
Roman didn't respond, looking at him silently, and Parker saw this and repeated it twice.
On the high platform, Roman's heart was entangled, not because of Parker's request, but just now, a message suddenly appeared in his brain.
If you give Parker a boon, you will receive a potion analysis that increases the degree of liquefaction.
This poked Roman's death hole, Roman's big goal is to be promoted to a third-level wizard, if there is a witch array, he can quickly level up and get twice the result with half the effort.
Of course, the witch array may also be fake, and it has made a back door, but it can't be wasted because of choking, wealth and wealth are in danger, such an opportunity, Roman must seize it.
The other party obviously grasped Roman's mentality and gave him a condition that could not be refused, Roman sighed and said loudly:
"Did you also come to me through the Dream Butterfly?"
Suddenly asked, Parker jumped, and hurriedly replied: "Yes, my lord, the villain recently obtained the dream butterfly, and plans to visit you and get the gift." ”
Roman was a little curious in his heart, the Dream Butterfly was not difficult to obtain, why did Parker not use the Dream Butterfly until he was a first-level wizard.
So, Roman said the question, and Parker replied respectfully: "The gift of the dream butterfly, everyone can only use it once in a lifetime, and I want to wait until the critical time to use it." ”
Roman chuckled softly and asked, "When it matters?" Are you experiencing any difficulties right now? ”
Parker replied respectfully: "Yes, I am now preparing to join the law enforcement team, I need to strengthen the Dream Butterfly, if I fail, I will be unemployed." ”
"My father was disabled in an accident and lost his ability to work, and if he didn't have a job, he would die of hunger and cold."
Roman nodded, and instead of speaking, he activated his psionic energy, transformed Parker's meditation space, and then made him disappear.
After the gift, Roman left the dream and began to wake up, eager to consult the elixir analysis, and after a moment, his brow furrowed.
The potion claims to increase liquefaction, but requires not only sorcery materials, but also the corpse of the contaminated source.
Roman has a lot of knowledge about potions, but there is still a gap in the research of the source of the contamination, so he can't predict the effects of potions.
That is to say, if the existence behind him wants to trap him, he can completely do tricks and feet on the potion, and as soon as Roman uses it, he will be killed immediately.
Therefore, for this elixir, Roman did not dare to use it at all, but he was very unwilling, and in another half a year, the water and soil would disappear, and Roman would resume his second-level cultivation, and then sprint to the third-level.
This process takes at least 100 years, and if there is a liquefaction agent, the time taken will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, Roman decided to thoroughly study the potion before deciding whether to use it.
Therefore, in addition to absorbing knowledge every day, Roman dedicates part of his time to consulting relevant information, especially the knowledge of pollution sources.
During this time, Roman was eager to see the relevant records in the library, even if it was a few words, which would be of great help to him.
Finally, in an ancient book about cults, Roman saw a similar account.
Some fallen wizards combine the source of contamination with the materials of the witchcraft to perform sacrificial rituals to obtain various gifts from evil gods.
But that was the end of the story, and Roman couldn't get any more information, but he didn't give up, so he spent a lot of gold to buy an hour's consultation time from a wizard who studied the source of the pollution.
In Allen Academy, senior wizards can provide a variety of consulting services for a fee to answer students' learning problems, but they are very expensive and students will not use them easily.
In the consultation room, Roman and the senior wizard sat down separately, and the senior wizard was also very curious about this student who did not attend class but got full marks every time, so he asked kindly:
"Classmate, what do you want to consult?"
Roman took out the books he had borrowed from the library, turned the page, and said to the wizard, "I want to know more about this sacrificial witch circle. ”
The wizard's eyes froze, and he immediately said, "Classmate, your question is very dangerous, I can completely arrest you as a cultist." ”
Roman had expected it, and pretended to be surprised: "I'm sorry, I really didn't think about it, I'm just very interested in the Witch Array, but the lack of wizard resources in the Earthsea makes it impossible to talk about the Witch Array's research." ”
"So when I saw that the pollution source could replace the witchcraft material, I thought this was the direction of the development of the witch array, so I planned to learn more."
Roman explained, and the wizard's hostility eased slightly, and he said in a harmonious voice: "I don't recommend you to study this, there have been many wizards who have had the same idea as you, but they have all failed without exception. ”
"The source of pollution and the sorcery materials come from different power systems, and they are not compatible with each other, and as for the use in the witch circle, it can only be said to be whimsical."
"Let me tell you the effect of this witch array, the witch array will directly point at a certain evil god, and the spiritual pollution it brings will make you collapse, and eventually become a believer in the evil god."
Roman chuckled in his heart and asked again: "Does the evil god have to go through spiritual pollution before he seeks believers?" If there is no pollution, will it not be converted? ”
The senior wizard chuckled: "That's right, but no one can do this, even I can't do it, the evil god is different from the source of pollution, its pollution is irresistible, even if you gouge out your eyes and pierce your ears, you can't do it." ”
Roman nodded and asked again: "In this case, the scene of the dream butterfly giving gifts, the existence sitting on the high platform should be the evil god, right?" Why does no one pollute this hand? ”
The wizard replied: "No one knows about this, the evil god is strange, there is no logic in acting, it may be good or malice, in short, the safest point is not to contact it, especially at the low-level wizard stage." ”
Roman nodded, in understanding, and then ended the conversation, and when parting, the wizard solemnly advised Roman not to try to explore the evil gods, because humans are too weak to have that qualification.
Roman nodded, extinguishing the thought of using liquefied potions in his heart, in his eyes, this was a complete conspiracy, as long as he insisted on not using potions, the mastermind behind the scenes would not affect him.
Just as he was making up his mind, Joss woke up and said to Roman, "Now the mental pollution is getting less and less, and the sleep is getting worse and worse. ”
Roman wondered: "Can you absorb spiritual pollution?" ”
Joss said: "Of course, the stronger the spiritual pollution, the faster my strength recovers, and the sooner the state of adaptation will disappear." ”
Then, as if thinking of something, he said excitedly: "The genes in my body tell me that the more spiritual pollution I absorb, the faster the bloodline in my body will jump, and the more my cultivation will grow." ”
"So Roman... Can you help me get more sources of pollution, the stronger I become, the more it will help you. ”
Roman's determination just now was shaken, even if Roman didn't need the liquefied potion, he could give it to Joss, he might as well let Joss test the medicine now, if it's okay, he Roman will use it again.
Thinking of this, Roman smiled and said, "It just so happens that I have an idea, we need more pollution sources, let's work together." ”
So, Roman returned to the dormitory, entered the secret realm, bought a large amount of earth and stones, and chose a vacant land for the realm spirit to manipulate and build a palace.
The temple is in the ancient Greek style, with an appearance like a Parthenon, and a style like the Rice Empire, tall and magnificent.
Subsequently, Roman used the witchcraft materials purchased on the black market to set up a witchcraft array in the temple, and then snapped his fingers, and a thick fog shrouded the temple.
With her right hand turning into Joss's head, she asked, "Is there any use in doing this?" It has nothing to do with getting a source of pollution! ”
Roman smiled: "How can it be okay, the academy can't go in and out casually, otherwise where can I find the source of pollution?" ”
Joss replied, "I still don't understand, but I'm looking forward to what you'll do Roman." ”
After the hall was built, it was already late at night, and Roman was on the throne, looking down at the empty hall, and then whispered the mantra.
The next moment, the fog was even thicker, the witch array in the hall flickered with a faint light, in the center, the two figures slowly condensed, and the moment they saw Roman, they immediately leaned over and said respectfully: "Big... Good evening, my lord! ”
They were originally sleeping, but they were suddenly pulled here, and found that it was the palace where the dream butterfly was given, and they couldn't help but cry bitterly in their hearts, and sure enough, the gift of the evil god was not so easy to take.
After receiving the benefits, they don't want to be associated with the evil gods anymore, the evil gods are moody, and if there is no real benefit, no wizard likes to deal with them.
Before, they took benefits from the evil god, and now the evil god came to ask for a reward, and the two sighed in their hearts: "Sure enough, there is no free lunch in the world." ”
However, according to the records, the gift of the Dream Butterfly never asks for anything in return after the fact, and usually after one contact with the evil god, it will not be contacted again.
This is the first time this is the case.
So they tentatively asked, "Tell me what are you looking for us?" ”
Roman thought for a moment, and then replied with two words: "Deal." ”
"Trade your resources for my knowledge."
Jarvis and Parker scowled, and although they were covered in thick fog, Roman knew that their expressions were full of surprise.
The evil god actually traded? It's incredible.
In the records of the Earth and Sea, the evil gods are chaotic beings, and humans cannot understand their actions, and of course they cannot understand human behavior.
To them, humans are just ants on the side of the road, dispensable, and they don't care about anything, so they don't propose so-called deals at all.
And Roman's proposal for a deal can be said to have set a historical precedent, which shocked the two of them.
Then, the two asked tentatively, "So... So what do adults want? ”
Roman replied: "Pollution sources, all kinds of pollution sources, the more advanced the pollution source, the more precious the exchange knowledge." ”
When the two of them heard this, they were immediately ecstatic, the knowledge mastered by the ancient evil god can be described as massive, if there is his help, the cultivation and leveling will be twice the result with half the effort.
Although they knew that they were plotting against the tiger, and if they were not careful, they would never turn back, because the temptation of power was too strong.
If the evil god proposes to make a deal, rather than sacrifice or do something harmful to society, it will basically not attract the attention of law enforcement forces, and it will not do any harm.
So the two didn't say a word, and immediately agreed.
Parker replied: "Where I work, there are many corpses from pollution sources, it is not difficult to obtain them, please ask how to give it to you." ”
Roman replied: "A week later, there was another rally, and there was a source of pollution on hand. ”
"Understood!"
Jarvis asked, "I want to get the level 3 apprentice stage, a more efficient meditation method, what level of pollution source is needed?" ”
Roman replied: "Apprentice! ”
A penny for a piece of goods, apprentice-level knowledge trading apprentice-level pollution source, feeling Roman's fairness, Jarvis relieved and said respectfully:
"Understood, I'll bring it to you next time!"
After confirming his intention, Roman no longer kept them, and waved his hand: "Let's all go back, today, a week later, meet again, remember to bring the source of pollution." ”
At this time, Parker preemptively said, "I don't know what to call an adult?" ”
Roman thought for a moment and replied, "My name is Raou. ”
Then, the mist covered the two men, leaving Roman in the empty hall.
Roman's right hand squirmed, and Joss's head appeared, and she said, "Roman, are you going to play the evil gods and rely on them to collect the source of pollution?" ”
On the stone seat, Roman supported his chin with one hand and said, "Yes, the mastermind behind the scenes has thought about everything, including the fact that I can't leave the campus." ”
Joss smiled: "If you're worried, I'll take medicine first, and if there's a problem, you can get out of it." ”
Roman was stunned for a moment and replied, "How can I let you take the risk!" ”
Joss approached Roman, rubbed his forehead, and said softly:
"Because you are Roman, no matter how much you like me, you should be defensive and calculating, you don't have to pretend to me, and I don't mean to blame you."
