Chapter 18: The Philosopher's Stone
Philosopher's Stone?
Sean was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "Hypnos, shouldn't it be called a memory stone?" β
"Master, I don't know what you said about the memory stones, but this pile is indeed a magic stone." Hypnos's tone remained unchanged.
Sean was lost in thought.
He knew that Hypnos wasn't lying, in other words, the so-called memory stone might just be the name of the humans of this era, and the Philosopher's Stone was the original name of the thing.
At this thought, he asked, "What is this Philosopher's Stone?" β
"Master, you can understand it as a natural spiritual reservoir."
Spiritual storage?
Sean was visibly stunned.
"Master, the role of the Philosopher's Stone is still very rich, as long as the method is right, you can store magic, spells, and even extraordinary abilities, memories, and so on."
After a pause, Hypnos's eyes flashed, and he said seriously: "In the Dark Ages, many transcendents even made philosopher's stones into various magical tools, so as to play the role of philosopher's stones more deeply. β
Sean suddenly realized, vaguely understood the function of this so-called magic stone, and couldn't help but increase his interest: "If you store magic in it, can you use it as a one-time magic scroll?" β
"Master, that's the truth!"
Hypnos said seriously, "However, depending on the quality of the Philosopher's Stone, it determines the level at which you store magic, spells, or supernatural abilities. β
"For example, these magic stones are only primary magic stones for the time being, so the stored magic, spells, or extraordinary abilities can only be at the low sequence level."
Sean looked thoughtfully at the pile of philosopher's stones in front of him and said, "For the time being? β
"Yes, master, the Temple of Order is filled with spirits that have been stored for countless years, and these philosopher's stones are nurtured by these spirits. There is a chance to improve the quality, so if you are not in a hurry to use it, you can always leave it here. β
Sean had a really like this expression, nodded and said, "Well, then keep it here, you pay attention, once there is a magic stone to improve the quality, remember to tell me." β
"Yes, master."
Seeing that Sean no longer spoke, Hypnos disappeared in front of Sean with great interest.
Sean continued to look at the pile of philosopher's stones in front of him for a while, then returned to the holy urn, and silently watched every move in the outside world through the power of the Temple of Order.
Although the place he left was empty at this moment, he knew very well that the entire ship was under the gaze of this terrifying perverted woman, and if he went out, he was afraid that he might be killed instantly.
Therefore, there is nothing he can do for the time being, so he can only stay patiently in the Temple of Order for the time being and wait - mainly because using SchrΓΆdinger's scroll several times in a row without greatly consuming his lifespan makes him very uneasy, and he always has a feeling that if he uses it next time, he is afraid that good luck may come to an end.
......
Robinson Titch looked at the woman in front of him with a gloomy face, silent.
He didn't know what happened to Clay, but it was clear that Clay's disappearance was not that simple.
"Mr. Robinson, it's rare for our boss to be so patient, I wonder what you're thinking about?"
Lewandowski Robert on the side calmly looked at the famous adventurer in front of him.
Robinson scolded in his heart, considering? Do you mean that for me? As long as I refuse, I'm afraid I'll disappear from this world immediately, right?
In his thoughts, he said in a deep voice: "Dear Lady Andrea, Robinson is naturally willing to serve you, but ......"
He paused deliberately.
"Huh?" 33
"Actually, it's nothing, it's really more than enough to explore the path in the next person, and if you can let Mr. Clay go with me, ...... in the next place."
"Mr. Clay is gone."
Without waiting for Robinson to finish speaking, Lewandowski Robert interrupted calmly.
Robinson chuckled inwardly, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly.
What does it mean to leave?
In the midst of this misty sea, on this strange island that has just docked on the shore, you told me that Mr. Clay left alone?
"Damn, what's wrong with Mr. Clay?"
Robinson's heart was heavy, and he was speechless for a while.
As if sensing Robinson's thoughts, Andrea laughed again, and the air seemed to be filled with a solemn atmosphere.
Robinson was cold, almost instinctively ready to fight to the death, although he knew that the difference in strength was huge, and it would not have the slightest effect.
"Well, the little man didn't die, he did leave, but he didn't leave the ship."
Andrea didn't know what came to mind, and explained with a light smile.
Robinson's brow furrowed as he listened, and he kept pondering the illogical words in his heart.
What does it mean to leave but not leave the ship?
Also, when this woman said that Mr. Clay was not dead, what does it mean that she did something to Mr. Clay, but it didn't turn out as the other party wanted?
Robinson's brain was spinning very fast, but on the surface, he had an expression of 'I believe', and nodded: "Okay, since Andrea said so, then I'm willing to explore the way for you." β
Andrea nodded slightly, her eyes flickered, and said: "I think you have also seen it, the Black Hat Pirates are waiting five miles away, even if you have special means to escape, I am afraid it will be a dead end." β
After a pause, she added, "Instead, as long as you get to that location in the Memory Stone and come back here, I guarantee you'll be back safe and sound this time." β
Well, safe and sound, I believe you have a ghost...... Robinson cursed in his heart, nodded respectfully on the surface, and took the memory stone handed over by Lewandowski Robert on the side.
"Go ahead, don't keep me waiting too long."
Andrea chuckled, waved her hand, and the whole person turned into a blood line and disappeared without a trace.
Robinson's heart tightened, and he didn't dare to be careless, and after glancing at Lewandowski Robert, he bowed and left, until he walked out of the other party's sight, and his whole face was suddenly gloomy like water.
"Damn, I don't know if that woman is lying to me? Is Mr. Clay really not dead? β
Robinson pondered as he walked in the direction of the deck, when suddenly, a familiar voice sounded in his ears:
"Dear Mr. Vortex, Mr. Twin Hitomi has requested to build a communication channel with you, do you agree?"
It's repair!
Robinson was shocked, but then he breathed a long sigh of relief, and secretly said that Mr. Clay was really fine.
Then, his face regained his composure, and he continued to walk in the direction of the deck.
Although he didn't know how Mr. Clay escaped the perverted woman, considering that the people who could recognize the Blasphemous Badge were not ordinary people, he inexplicably had greater confidence in surviving this time.
......
......
Some people died, but not completely......
