Chapter 938: Resurrection Covenant, Seeing Death as Home
Lake Mecht on the southern shore of Lake.
A tall young woman with a nice face and a tall figure was looking indifferently at Lake Mecht, which was shrouded in a green glow in the north.
The sassy north wind blew Jenna's long bright blonde hair behind her, and even though the wind was mixed with the strong fishy smell of the fishmen, she was not moved at all.
Suddenly, a sturdy figure rushed out of the green light with a thin cloud of mist, and Jenna, who was originally standing on the shore like a statue, melted in an indifferent way after seeing the figure clearly, and there was a touch of fresh breath.
But she didn't move, and only took the initiative to speak after Xia Duo fell from mid-air: "Lord Xia Duo, how is the situation inside?" What about Master Byron? β
Originally, Xia Duo wanted to ask President Jenna how long it had been outside, but Jenna asked first, and he didn't mind answering first:
"It's full of fish-people, and it feels like it's a whole ocean! Master Byron may have something going on in thereβ"
Before Xia Duo finished speaking, a familiar figure fell beside him, it was Master Byron, who had just left the lock.
"President Jenna, how long have I been in?" Perhaps it was the commonality of the casters, and Master Byron also thought of the question of time as soon as he came out.
"Master, you and Lord Xia Duo have been in for about half a moment, and Lord Xia Duo has only come out two sentences before you!"
Jenna's answer was concise and clear, Master Byron nodded slightly, and then said to Xia Duo: "Lord Xia Duo, next I will cast a spell to destroy the Lost Lock, for the sake of safety, you better go back to Savile Town first, just inform the others, don't panic if you see any vision for a while!" β
"Yes!"
Xia Duo saluted and was about to leave, but suddenly looked at President Jenna, who only nodded slightly, and even smiled lightly, but her body did not move at all.
This made Xia Duo a little embarrassed, he originally wanted to be polite and invite President Jenna to leave with him, after all, Master Byron didn't say it, for the sake of safety.
But the other party's reaction was obviously not ready to leave, and Master Byron did not object, Xia Duo now understood, it was really not easy to get the approval of the Grand Arcanist!
So Xia Duo had to leave alone.
β¦β¦
And just after Xia Duo left, Jenna suddenly spoke, "What an interesting little guy!" β
"A little guy with potential, too!"
Byron responded with a smile, then retracted his smile and asked Jenna, "Is there any contact from Severton?" What did High Priest Morton say? β
"I just got in touch, High Priest Morton has agreed, but he wants the Death Stone from your collection!"
"What Death Sacred Stone, isn't it just a piece of ink crystal of better quality, he wants me to give it to him." Byron said nonchalantly.
But he changed his words and said, "Butβ
The fish-man crowd is not my personal matter, but a business that will have a profound impact on Nessryl, and the Sevington Council will give him the reward for this move, as for the so-called Death Stone, if he wants, he will exchange it for the Resurrection Covenant! β
The Death Stone, or Ink Crystal, is at most a special gem with more energy for orthodox color-resistant mages.
But because it is full of negative energy, only a few casters who study negative energy will need it, but for the priests of death, who believe in the idea of "death to death", sacrificing such gems can be a blessing of divine grace.
And this is also the origin of the name of the [Death Stone].
As for the [Resurrection Covenant], it is the means to truly resurrect the dead, and it is also the ultimate power of the Priest of Death.
Of course, the resurrection of the dead largely goes against the idea of "death to death", and therefore requires a lot of divine grace.
As for whether the divine grace obtained from sacrificing the Death Stone can make up for the consumption of the [Resurrection Covenant], only the Death Priest himself who has mastered the resurrection divine art will know.
Outsiders, even the priests of death who have not mastered the resurrection technique, it is difficult to figure out the doorway just by imagination, which is why Byron opened his mouth to [resurrection covenant].
It is not excluded that there is a sense of curiosity and temptation.
Hearing Byron's request, Jenna couldn't help but shake her head, "Master, High Priest Morton would not agree to such a deal. β
"If you don't agree, forget it, it's him who doesn't want to, it's not that I don't want to!"
But in the end, Byron seemed to think of something, his expression became a little lonely, he waved his hand, and said casually:
"Forget it, don't worry about him, look at the handling of the fish crowd this time, if I am satisfied, it will not hurt to give him the broken stone!"
This time, Jenna didn't answer, just looked at Byron in a daze, with a little sentimentality in her eyes.
"Okay, don't look at me like that, make me feel like I'm going to die tomorrow, Master Congenio, how can I die so easily, and when my old friend's immortality research comes out, maybe I'll live longer than you!"
Master Byron's joking words made Jenna burst out laughing, and she thought of the Master Congenio, who was often privately referred to as "the old immortal".
He is now close to 500 years old, and from his rise to the present, I don't know how many juniors have died, and even if he is about to step down as president of the Arcane Federation, no one has ever suspected that his life is coming to an end.
As for the immortality technique that Ioram is studying, it is said that it has been praised by Master Congenio himself, and it is not known whether Iolem will take over as the president of the Arcane Federation.
However, Jenna knew that the master Byron in front of her, who did not have the name of master and apprentice, but had the reality of master and apprentice, was indeed about to come to an end in his life, although this end was still a long time for ordinary people.
But for a powerful spellcaster, the visible end of life, no matter how far away it is, is incomparably cruel.
This feeling of watching herself die day by day is something Jenna could hardly imagine for a moment, and for this reason, she has great respect for Master Byron, who can see death as a way home.
β¦β¦
Returning to the point, Byron went on to ask, "When will High Priest Morton start acting?" β
"I don't know about this, but Xiya knows the situation here, and she should arrange it as soon as possible."
"I see, then let's destroy the mystery lock here."
After saying that, Byron couldn't help but complain again, "This damn elf doesn't do good things every time!" I can now understand why Badiggarh hates elves so much! β
"I can understand that!"
Jenna responded, and then performed a synergistic resonance spell under Byron's command.
