Chapter 603: Calculation
After receiving the news, Chanem did not hesitate to go to Siegel's residence. With a mysterious smile on his face, it seemed that everything was being calculated and under control.
"There's really nothing in your room but books. Chanem stepped through the door and looked up and down. Siegel smiled slightly, but did not answer. He used points and spells to hide his clone crystal coffin from Chanem - it was his hole card.
With a sweep of his sleeve, Siegel cleared the scroll from the table, brought a chair to the side, and invited Chanem to sit down.
"Looks like you're ready. Chanem didn't care that there was no alcohol or drinks to entertain here, and sat down. His eyes shone with excitement, like a miser who has seen treasure. "When will the clearance begin?"
"Clearing?" Siegel was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "There is no need to clear the field, it will not help the final victory, and it will consume strength in advance." I didn't invite you to hire a killer, but I have one thing to discuss with you. ”
"I like to talk with a knife. Chanem's eyes narrowed, and he looked slightly annoyed, "Time has dragged on long enough, and the knife will be dull if you don't use it again!"
"If you say that, I wonder what you think of Anna, and how sure you are of dealing with her?"
"Good question! I thought you would be fooled by that woman!" Chanem clapped his hands a few times, and then said, "I came before you, and the orc sage and the elf Anna were already here at that time." She recognized me and immediately took refuge in the orcs. At the time, I was so busy learning spells to earn points that I didn't pay much attention to it. ”
"Later, the Academy of Magic experienced a turbulent time, and the orc sages went on a killing spree, and no student was able to avoid this catastrophe. Truth be told, even you. It didn't survive that time. Chanem licked his lips and said, "The Orc Sage really wanted to kill me, so I used the stratagem to deal with him and let the other students become my shields." Later, I finally turned Anna and the Orc Sage against each other, and the two of them engaged in a fight. ”
"The orc mage was defeated and then resurrected?" said Segalci.
"Nope. It ended in a draw. Chanem replied, "According to the temper of the Orc Sage, victory or defeat is the most important thing, and a draw is the most incredible thing, but it just happened. No one knew the course of the battle, and the two parties never said it at the time. After the duel, the orc sage quieted down and did not kill like before. Elf Anna also became independent and gradually became her current personality. ”
"There was something strange about it that caught my attention. So I tricked the mage around me into approaching Anna. After a while, these people seem to have nothing wrong on the surface, but they lose their fighting spirit, at least for Anna. I've never seen anything like it, and those people seem to have become so reluctant to say anything to Anna. I found that I was also affected and began to bother to pay attention to this female elf. ”
Siegel frowned, trying to understand the words of the Holy One of Murder. He thought of the Knox Society's mind control spell. I had a guess in my heart: "Is it similar to the effect of being hypnotized, and it is very deep hypnosis?"
"I have that in mind. But how likely do you think it is that both me and the orc sage were hypnotized?" Chanem waved his hand: "Of course, don't be too affected by me, if there is really a magic that can affect the existence of the sage level without being detected, then only a mage like you can find out." Orcs don't have a good idea, but I have an idea. Using the nature of the insect mage, I hid my mind among countless worms. Constantly replace and clean up at regular intervals, and use cluster thinking to reduce the possibility of being controlled. ”
"It's a good idea. But if what you're talking about exists, why haven't I been affected?" Siegel scratched his hair.
"How do I know that?" chanem snorted. "Maybe your protective spells are more comprehensive, right? We Sages are used to using strong physical resistance to deal with threats, and we are not as flexible as your mages. ”
"However, it is not entirely without eyebrows. He pondered for a while and then said, "The development of things is always one after the other. There is never a jump out of nowhere. The orc sage was actually normal when he was on a killing spree, but when he turned this killing intent towards Anna, he changed. Others, including me, are affected when we try to deal with Anna. This situation seems to me to be like ......"
"It's like meeting a mirror!" Siegel nodded. "I roughly understand, Anna will leave it to me. From what I know so far, there is a more than eighty percent chance that she is that person - or a previous incarnation of that person. ”
Chanem's eyes widened, and he slapped the table with a bang, "Are you sure?"
"I said, eighty percent. Siegel said: "He has always appeared in history as a master of prophecy, one after another. Previously, he was a female elf, and he existed in the art academy for a long time, but rarely appeared. ”
Judging from the timing, she should have discovered the plan of the ten-sided dice, and when she tried to stop it, she left everyone's sight. From the elves' side, she's dead, but it's more likely that she's a golden cicada that has come out of her shell.
For the Sage, every time he rechanges his image and identity is no different than dying once. Why did Riele waste his energy on this? If he needed to control the world from a new angle, what was a more convenient option than to transform into an immortal race? He could completely appear in the image of a celestial creature and directly serve the Star Royal, so that he would not have to change his body for thousands of years.
On the other hand, after changing the identity, will the efforts and achievements related to the previous identity be in vain? Liele will definitely not give up easily, and will always find a way to make use of it. When the Holy Power is transferred to the new body, the old body becomes mortal, and as long as it can be moved, it may be selected by the Academy of Magic. After all, the rules and methods of selection must be best known to the magic god himself.
Regardless of whether the orc sage entered the magic academy intentionally or by accident, it was finally allowed to start working. He was the first student to pass through the Misty Mountain Path, and he must have triggered some kind of condition. The elf didn't go up the trail at all, she had entered it by other means, unlike everyone else. This can be done, except that the magic god has already set it in advance. It's hard to have any other explanation.
"The odds of eighty percent are high enough, and we have to find a way to get rid of her. Chanem closed his eyes and thought for a moment, but then shook his head and said, "It's up to you to figure out how to do it, I'm afraid I'll follow in the footsteps of the orc sages." ”
Siegel doesn't know if it's hypnotized or if Chanem is posturing, but wants him to be the killer of the murder gods. Apparently not. Siegel knows where his strengths lie, and he knows his weaknesses. Rather than gradually revealing the mage's hole cards in one battle after another, it is better to solve them together at the last moment.
Despite his full confidence, he never underestimated his strength. Even if it is a lion fighting a rabbit, he will do his best, let alone against an opponent of equal strength. Even if everyone else is inferior to him in magic, does it mean that he is completely behind? Everyone will try to play to their strengths and strengths, and fight in their own field as much as possible, who does not have one or two unique skills? Before having absolute superiority, always unite as many people as possible. Put yourself in a good position.
Chanem, the Orc Sage, and himself have a very clear goal, which is the divine power of the god of magic. The three of them were able to form a balance in terms of combat ability, and this was when Siegel's mage traits gave him an advantage - after all, it was about choosing a god of magic, not an orc or a god of murder. The reason why he organized Chanem to kill the orc sage was also for this reason.
If you can automatically win by eliminating everyone, Siegel will not be merciful. Judging from the evidence currently available, this path is simply not going to work. The end result must be a scuffle, and the magical powers will test the candidate's grasp of the situation. Siegel has been preparing for this situation. It is natural to ensure that this situation comes.
"There's one more thing, that man has left more than one backhand. Siegel said, "If the lamp god is repaired." He'll get the news right away, and I'm sure he'll always have a way to get in. So there's one thing I need you to do, and that's the only thing I can think of that might stop him from coming. ”
"Say it, I'll do my best. ”
"I need you to give three lives, use the characteristics of the insect mage, and split yourself into three parts. Siegel said, "Even if it splits into three fools, it's fine." The key is to be an individual who thinks independently. The Academy of Magic will treat these three people as newcomers, thus filling the nine slots here. ”
"Do you know how much Holy Power it takes me to spend three lives, not to mention that my strength will drop for a short time after the split, and it will take time to recover. This ......"
"Which one is more cost-effective than one more enemy?"
Chanem was silent, then nodded. "You'd better not be cheating on me. Siegel. ”
"How can we, we're still allies now, aren't we?" Siegel smiled slightly and said, "I won't be unprepared, of course there are plans to prevent and counter you." I can't put all the expectations on that you will keep your promises. Even if I don't say it, you'll be prepared, so it's more efficient for us two smart people to be honest. ”
"That's right. Chanem emphasized: "Don't play tricks, I'll spare you once, so that in the end everyone will gain." ”
"Rao? I'm also a Sage now, just like you, how can you spare me?" Siegel scoffed: "Don't take advantage of this kind of verbal stuff anymore, it's not a child, how much influence can verbal things have? ”
"Alright, I admit that you are qualified to be on an equal footing with the Sage, and this status is still given to you by me. Chanem licked his lips and finally said, "How's the problem on the fourth floor of the magic tower solved? ”
"It's been ready for a long time. Siegel handed him an amulet, the same one Anna had given him: "Try it, you can block the perception of the six-armed lamp god so that it doesn't attack you." I didn't try it either, but I guess it shouldn't be a problem. You're more capable of resurrection, so it's time for you to try it. ”
"You're trying to consume my resurrections!"
"It's only been a few times. Siegel said, "The halflings of Mother Earth have died hundreds of times, and they can still be resurrected slowly. ”
Chanem's eyes narrowed, not knowing what was going on in his mind. (To be continued.) )
