Chapter 562: Demon Core

"I am opposed to the Mage's proposal. Sitting at the council table, Siegel said to his colleagues in the Federation, "You should feel the capriciousness of the Mage Guild, and I'm worried that there will be some other conspiracy behind their acknowledgment of our legitimacy and their willingness to come to the aid this time. ”

Siegel looked at the expressions of the other mages, and some frowned, obviously having other thoughts in mind, but none of them dared to raise objections. William wakes up and recounts what happened, and everyone analyzes it, believing that it was clearly a premeditated plan, targeting the Mage Federation and Seagal of the Heim Realm.

The entire federation was caught off guard, and everyone realized that their vigilance and combat effectiveness were too poor. If it weren't for Wywood's ability to regain control of some of the Myr's cores and prevent the magic ship from crashing, if it weren't for Wendy who lured Alexander to Myr, Heim's musketeers and the cadets of the magic school dragged the enemy, and if it weren't for Archmage Siegel who rushed back with astonishing speed and then defeated Alexander, the lion, the disaster would have been even greater.

Because of this, when Siegel raised objections, none of the mages objected. Before he knew it, Siegel had already established a high level of prestige in the Federation. In the past, everyone trusted him very much, but without this spell battle with the Lion King, his "might" could not have been established quickly.

However, if "wei" is used too much, it will affect the more important "faith". Siegel paused, and after knowing that no one objected, he changed his words and said to everyone, "The intentions of the Mage Guild are suspicious. But on the other hand. Spell scrolls, spell books, and various lesson materials are all good stuff. We don't have to say no. According to past agreements, there are things that should have been ours in the first place. The Society's assistance did not come out of nowhere, as the predecessors of the Federation in the past also contributed to the Mage Guild, including copying scrolls and crafting magical items. So I think it's okay to receive aid with purpose and limitation this time. ”

Many mages nodded unconsciously, smiles on their faces. Siegel had traded cloning for a number of high-level spells, and word had spread in the Federation. In the past, it was customary for the archmage to provide a copy to the federation after he had learned the spell himself. But after all, it will take a while. What could be more convenient than receiving the Mage's Guild's magic book directly?

Not to mention not only the high-level magic scrolls, but also ordinary spells and spell-casting rituals, and knowledge of spell circles, these things are very important for a large number of full-fledged mages who have escaped their apprenticeship status. So they were all happy that Archmage Siegel was able to agree to renew his relationship with the Mage Guild.

"But I want to tell you one thing, I was outside the Tower of Babel of the Mage Guild when Alexander began attacking the Federation and my castle. I originally wanted to use teleportation and teleportation channels to rush back as quickly as possible, but Babel unleashed the Space Lock spell. The expression on Siegel's face was very serious, and his gaze swept over the faces of each member of the council to make sure that his meaning was accurately conveyed to everyone: "This matter is no coincidence, and the association has not given up on fully digesting and absorbing the actions of the Federation. If one is not careful, the federation will still be seriously injured or even eliminated. This is not alarmism. Think about it, how many people would have died from their injuries without my cloning?"

Everyone looked to the side, Wendy and Simmonton were not there, they were still under the protection of eternal stagnation. Dawn, the priest of Mother Earth, and the Golem Red have all come to check it out, and no one is sure that they will be cured. So Siegel can only make clones for them. Combined with the amount of work required for this trip to Babel, there were seventeen clones slowly growing in Siegel's lab.

"My opinion is this, no matter what you do, you must not let down your vigilance against the Mage Guild. Think about how many mage organizations have been born in the so many years that the Mage Guild has existed, where have they all gone, and how many are left now?"

The federation should be alert after this time, at least Siegel hopes. After attending the federation meeting, he also had to deal with the affairs of Heim Ling. As the castle was attacked, he wrote to His Majesty Evan asking for leave to attend the Imperial Council for the time being. I believe that with Earl Todd, who is more than thirty years younger, in charge, there will not really be a problem that he must come forward to solve.

Compared to the affairs of the Federation, the affairs of the territory are much simpler. The simplicity of the villagers made him feel relaxed mentally, and he preferred to manage these small things about horses, sheep, cows and chickens all day long.

But this is the first time I've encountered something related to rabbits. When Siegel saw a resident carrying a cage with ten live gray rabbits walking over with a sad face, he also muttered in his heart: If there is a dispute, it is usually two or three people who come in a group, what is this person going to do with the rabbit, and if he is giving a gift, he doesn't have to be sad?

The rabbit industry has only emerged in the past two years. Due to the increase in knights, the demand for rabbit skin liners inside the armor has risen, and the rabbit meat itself can be eaten, and rabbit fur is also a good warm material.

The man put down the rabbit, bowed deeply, and said, "Your Excellency, I am Marjorie Rabit, the son of Ty Rabit, the master of the rabbit farm. Rabbit brains are a very popular dish, and many taverns buy rabbit heads specifically. But since the long stones, they don't buy from me. This was originally a loss of money, and it was not worth the trouble of Lord Marquis. But recently there have been rumors that my rabbit is cursed, which affects all the business of my rabbit farm. The villain is about to go bankrupt, so I ask the adults for help, can I see what is going on, if it is not a curse, I can regain my family's innocence. ”

"Why don't you go to the priest of the temple? Breaking the curse they're better at it, and they're always there, but I'm not often in the territory. ”

"Because you are my lord, I will believe in your lordship. Marjorie replied very firmly.

Siegel smiled, walked down from the lord's chair, and came to the man: "Okay, since you say so, I'll try." Actually, I don't know how to raise rabbits, and I'm far worse than you in this regard. ”

When a rabbit was brought out of the cage, Siegel noticed something was wrong. Obviously it was an ordinary gray-haired rabbit, why did it have a slight elemental reaction on its body? He used his detection magic, turned over and carefully observed, and found that the rabbit's head really had a magical aura.

"I bought this rabbit," Siegel said, twisting his hand around the rabbit's neck, then pulling out the dagger and slicing open the skull. Marjorie seemed to know what the lord was going to do, and stretched out his hand and pointed, "My lord, it's in that place." ”

The obsidian dagger was raised, and there was indeed an irregular stone at the tip of the blade. Siegel asked the invisible servant to bring clean water, wash it carefully, and put it in the palm of his hand to observe. The faint magical aura emanated from this stone.

"All rabbits are like that?" Siegel frowned after receiving an affirmative answer. If it were an ordinary mage, I am afraid that it would not be obvious that with his extensive experience in elemental magic, Siegel had discovered a stable elemental aggregate structure from the stone.

"No matter how many rabbits you have there, I'll take them. Siegel said, "These stones are interesting, maybe I will be able to use them in my magic experiments." In this way, if you raise rabbits in the future, dig out all the stones in your head and give them to me, and I will buy them at the price of a five-copper plate, are you willing?"

"Thank you, Lord Lord, of course I do!" the man thanked and left happily.

Siegel took care of a few more things and returned to the lab early, by which time the information about the rabbit farm had been put on his desk. Marjorie's rabbit farm is not far from the Mir Energy Core, and the feed he uses is no different from other rabbit farms. It seems that only the Myr Core is the biggest cause of all this, and the high concentration of elemental power has affected the rabbit, leaving this crystalline stone in its brain.

Elemental aggregates are very stable structures that can store large amounts of elemental energy, and it also has some ability to transform elements. Siegel's Four-Vein Divine Arrow and Mir Energy Core are all based on elemental aggregates, and he himself has the ability to create and condense elemental polymerization crystals. Most of the small stones in front of me are useless impurities, but there are pure elemental polymerization crystals in the tiny areas of the innermost core. Siegel estimated that if this piece of crystal released its power, it could meet the elemental energy required for a fireball technique.

If you imagine a rabbit unleashing a fireball, I'm afraid everyone will laugh out loud. However, if they knew the category of magical beasts, it would not be difficult to understand the relationship between rabbits and fireballs. For example, a petrified lizard that can petrify people, a blue-footed dragon snake that can spit lightning, and a flashing dog that can cast any spell are all types of magical beasts. Maybe the rabbits are too young, or maybe they don't know how to use the energy in their bodies yet, but in a way, they're starting to break away from normal animals and change in the direction of magical beasts.

And Marjorie said that their rabbits, no matter how big or small, have such stones in their heads. If it is to rely on the environment of the Mir energy core, so that every rabbit has an abnormality, then the probability of mutation is too high, and it is obviously impossible. A plausible explanation is that after a rabbit has undergone an anomaly, its offspring inherit this trait, thus gradually increasing the number of "crystallized rabbits".

At the moment, it seems that this anomaly has no effect on the rabbits, and does not make their rabbits dangerous, but this possibility cannot be ignored. If the mutation appears in rabbits, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not appear in other animals, or even humans. Siegel thought of the larger number of mice, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

The use of this stone is difficult to stop Siegel, the Federation has long had a variety of temporary magic items, which could only be used within the scope of the Myr Energy Core, but now with this stone you can go out. For example, a temporary fireball spell staff can be fired once when it is out of range of Myrcan. Although there is still a distance from theory to practice, there is no shortage of sales for rabbit heads.

The only question is whether this thing will be a danger to the territory. (To be continued.) )
