Chapter 118

As soon as Tatara finished speaking, Char didn't speak, when he heard Dora's strange voice from the depths of his mind: "Yi? Life Spell? is actually a Life Spell? Now there are still human magicians cultivating this series of spells." ”

Even this proud female dragon expressed surprise, and Char's heart immediately moved, what kind of life curse technique is this, I'm afraid it's not simple.

Then I heard Dora sneer in her mind: "This magician of yours is too stupid, what kind of life curse technique, the real name of this magic should be 'life curse'! ”

Tadora's face was already full of excitement, his eyes were full of excitement, he looked at Char and said with anticipation: "Master, these ...... Can you give me these things? If they are in my hands, they can exert their true power......! Well, in the future, I, Todora, can also help you fight together, so I don't have to hide behind while you're fighting......"

Char smiled, but this smile pulled the wound, and he couldn't help but gasp in pain, and then reluctantly said: "Hmph, you guy, but tell me, what kind of life curse is this?" Tell me honestly, you can't have reservations!"

As he spoke, he glared at Tatara fiercely.

Dotara rolled his eyes and said cautiously: "Master Char, as you know, the world of magic has a long history, and the mysteries are endless......

"Less nonsense!Tell the point!" Char snorted.

Tadora's body shook and quickly said, "This...... There are many kinds of magical powers, and most of them are powered by the magic of the magician himself, uh...... However, there are some exceptions, in order to use the power of magic, the source of the driving force is not the magic of the magician, because it is very difficult to improve the magic power, and it requires the diligence and tenacity of the magician himself, as well as sufficient talent. You have to spend a lot of time meditating and penance, and you have to have some precious magic potions to increase your jīng powers. In this way, a mid-level magician would have to spend half a lifetime......"

"However, in addition to magic, there are other ways in the world of magic, and there are other ways to drive magical forces and magical elements. This gives new hope to many magicians who are not gifted with magic. After all, not everyone who aspires to magic has the talent for sè's jīng divine power. For example, I ......"

When Tatara said this, his face was a little gloomy.

"Aside from magic, the most common of the other channels is necromancy, also known as dark magic. In order to perform necromantic magic, the magician's own magic power is not important, and even if the magic power is low, he can use powerful necromantic magic, and the source of the undead magic power is no longer the magician himself, but ...... As long as you can collect enough souls and then refine these soul powers into pure 'spiritual power' and store them, you can use spiritual power instead of magic power to cast a lot of powerful undead magic!"

"However, according to the laws of magic, the use of necromancy, that is, refining the soul to obtain spiritual power, is itself cursed, so all magicians who practice necromancy are called black magicians. Although necromantic magic is powerful, the magician himself will be unlucky because of the curse, and the most common is that because he is surrounded by the undead all year round, his body will be very weak, and at the same time, he will be cursed by the gods, riddled with bad luck, and always encounter bad luck...... Even, while using necromancy to summon some powerful dead creatures, the magician himself will be counterattacked by power, and in serious cases, it will be life-threatening......"

What Dodoro said was foaming at the mouth, but Char was a little impatient: "What you said has anything to do with any life curse technique?"

"Uh......" Tatara was stunned for a moment, quickly slapped his mouth hard, and said with a sneer: "I'm sorry, when I was studying magic theory class, I memorized this paragraph the most, well, in addition to necromancy is to use spiritual power to replace the magic power of the magician, there is also another channel, which can replace the magic cultivation of the magician himself, and still cast some powerful magic...... This power is called 'Life Magic', and we call it Life Curse Magic!"

"To put it simply...... Ordinary magic is powered by magic. Necromancy is powered by spiritual power. The Life Curse Technique, on the other hand, is based on ...... The life force of the magician himself is driven!!"

Vitality?!Char was stunned.

"Yes, it's the life force!" Tatara sighed, and his face became a little weirder: "In order to get great power, there are always people who are willing to pay a high price! Even if it is only for a short time, but once they taste the taste of power, people will become addicted to it, and even willing to pay more and greater costs! Life Curse Spell is one of them, and if it is dangerous, it is even more dangerous than Forgetfulness Magic! Normal magic consumes the mana of the magician, and the consumption of mana can be replenished by meditation and rest, or some magic potions. Necromantic magic consumes spiritual power, which can be replenished by collecting more undead.

However, the life curse magic consumes life force!! A person's life force cannot be replenished! If you use a little, you will have less! The direct side effect of casting life magic is that the magician himself will ...... Short-lived!Especially the more powerful the Life Curse Technique, the more life force it consumes. Maybe even after a magic spell is cast, the magician himself will immediately run out of life force and die of old age on the spot!"

No way!

Char was stunned.

What kind of magic is this? power at the cost of one's own life force...... When the power is used up, you die yourself?!

"According to ancient records, there were also some madmen in history who pursued power and practiced this kind of magic at any cost, but no magician of the Life Curse could live past the age of thirty......" Tatara's tone was a little heavy: "Because the consumption of this Life Curse is really terrible." Almost all magicians believe that this kind of magic has no meaning at all, and that no matter how powerful it is, if it loses its life, everything is empty. So...... Life curse spells have always been an extremely unpopular existence in the wizarding world, and I have only seen them in magic theory classes. ”

"Then according to what you said, there is no price for cultivating this kind of thing. Char shook his head: "Once this power is used, the magician himself will soon hang up." ”

"There are exceptions. Duo Duo Luo smiled, and his face became dangerous: "At least, there has been an exception in history! And this exception has opened a new door for all magicians who practice life curse techniques!"

As he spoke, the god of Tatara suddenly became extremely reverent, and in a tone of sincere fear, he slowly announced a name:

"Hirafinkia!"

At the same time that Dodora reported the name, Char heard a heavy "snort" from Dora in his mind.

Subsequently, Tataro said something about the name...... ※※※ Hirafinkya.

The name belonged to a magician. And even though this magician is notorious after his death, in the history of magic in the mainland, this magician is still ranked in the top ten among all magician geniuses in history!!

Not a contemporary ranking, but a ranking of all magical geniuses in history!

It is even said that some individual radical magicians even believe that Hirafinkia is the most genius magician in history.

Hirafinkia was not a magician, he was a pastor of a church until he was thirty years old...... Although the priest is also a kind of magician, the priest is only good at some auxiliary magic, such as blessings, horror dispelling, courage blessings, and other jīng divine powers. And the only more practical spell that can act on the human body itself is healing.

In addition, even simple power blessings, speed blessings, and these spells cannot be completed by the priest.

The pastor is also one of the specialized forces that belong to the church.

Until he was thirty years old, Hirafinkia was said to be a priest in a small local church, but he was a genius in magic—a deformed genius. His magic power is not outstanding, and it can even be said to be very low, so even as a priest, the level of his priest's spells is also very low.

But the genius later switched to necromancy...... This is not unusual, necromancy is not forbidden in the wizarding world, on the contrary, the pursuit of power by magicians is usually above the moral norms of the world.

Many mages who are willing to join the nobility or help the army fight are necromancers, because on the battlefield, necromancers can harvest more undead and improve their spiritual power.

Hilafinkya became a famous necromancer on the continent before the age of forty, but this did not seem to satisfy his quest for power.

Necromancer magic is inherently subject to some constraints, such as the collection of spiritual power, which is criticized by the world, feared and excluded by the world, and even the church has to make some binding clauses that restrict necromancers from using immoral methods to improve spiritual power.

Hirafinkya's true contribution to the academic field of magic, and what made him truly one of the top magical geniuses in history, was the fact that he later switched to the Curse of Life technique, which did not exist at the time, and was still called "Life Magic" at the time.

The price of a magician burning his life force to drive powerful magical powers and magical elements was once considered a near-martyrly devotion and nobility - but after Hirafinkya, this view was shattered.

Because, after years of research, Hilafinkya finally found one way to exhaust:

The drive of life magic is no longer to consume the mage's own life force...... It's someone else's!!

To put it simply, Hirafinkia fused the necromancy she had learned with life magic, and finally developed a new method: using the spell of refining spiritual power in necromancy, she made some changes to devour and absorb the life force of others, and then used the absorbed life force of others as a power to launch more powerful magic.

When he first did this research, in order to find a powerful life medium, Hilafinkya needed to find some other creatures with particularly strong vitality to replace his own life force consumption.

What did he find?

What is the most vigorous and longest-lived creature on this continent that is recognized as the most vigorous and longest-lived of all living creatures?

No doubt...... Be...... Dragon!

※※※ Hilafinkya was a genius, a genius who would do whatever it took to achieve power - understand that geniuses are often extreme.

So this guy, in order to test his results, did not hesitate to start attacking the dragons!

At that time, this guy was already a powerful necromancer, and legend has it that he went north alone to find dragons in the far far north, and then used many shameless and despicable methods, including poisoning, sneak attacks, etc., to hunt and kill several dragons, and extract enough life force from the dragons.

And for this reason...... The name Hirafinkia is notorious among the dragons, and because of this, after the era of Hirafinkoa, all human necromancers were blacklisted by the dragons.

Necromancy has become high on the list of undesirable enemies of the dragons.

Even, in order to improve and fuse the undead magic and the life magic, this guy actually hunted a few dragons, I don't know what way he thought of to find the legendary holy tomb of the dragon clan!!

The most legendary thing is that after this guy went to the Dragon Clan's Holy Tomb, he actually walked out alive?!!

And after he came out, he returned to the mainland, and soon, what he had worked hard to research came to fruition.

He succeeded in improving the Life Magic, which became the current "Life Curse Technique".

"In fact, all life force can be transformed into the power of life magic! Not only the magician himself, but with my results, I can extract the life force of all the living beings around me! Humans, dwarves, dragons, jīng spirits...... No, no, no, not only these advanced lifeforms, but even flowers, trees, insects, snakes, ants, birds and animals...... can be the object of absorption!"

These words of Hilaffinkya were written in books on the theory of magic.

But this guy is a madman, a madman who will do whatever it takes!

Legend has it that in order to gain abundant vitality, he caused at least three plagues and disasters on the continent! Legend has it that wherever he walked, not a single grass grows, and all life withers!

And the power obtained by using such a method is really too rebellious...... When Hirafinkia was seventy years old, he finally suffered retribution.

Previously, because of his perverse behavior, the church had issued a warrant for his arrest, and at least three holy magus magisters pursued him, but he escaped. And in the end, he died at the hands of "God".

Legend has it that the gods could not tolerate his repeated violations of the laws of life and magic, and as a result, when he was seventy years old, Herapinkea still looked like a man in the prime of his thirties and forties, because he had gained enough absorbed vitality, and in the end, the gods rained down thunder and fire, reducing him and his magic laboratory to ashes.

Although the creature died, the name remained the focus of the most controversy in the wizarding world for a hundred years after his death.

The important reason for this is the passage he once left behind in the wizarding world.

"Why kill me? I'm just opening a new door to the path of power. Perhaps it was the opening of this door that made some 'existences' uneasy. In fact, killing and dying are not my intention, but in order to open some new doors, then some price must be paid. At least, life magic, in my opinion, is not evil. There are many ways mages can gain life force, not just by slaughtering their own or other higher beings. Even...... Pigs, dogs, cows, sheep, horses...... can be a source of vitality. Isn't it a matter of plundering life when we eat beef and mutton every day?

Noble and despicable are nothing but a standard imposed on me!

For me, I can refrain from killing, and even, if I am asked to bring a theoretically large number of sheep, I can challenge a Holy Magus!

All I have will be hunted down and excluded, precisely because of such an 'unfair' challenge!

Some 'beings' have taken power as their own limit, and when they find that many more people can use new methods to obtain the same amount of power as themselves, they panic!

The people above, in order to keep the position above - therefore, I must die. ”

This passage was left behind by Hirafinkia a year before his death, when he openly ran to the church headquarters in Osgiria. At that time, this guy's appearance in Dìdū Osculia caused a big panic, but this guy who defended the sky just went around in a circle, left a few words, and then drifted away.

No one dared to fight him in Osgilia, because everyone knew that once he was attacked, this genius madman, in order to protect himself, might cast life magic...... And the entire human race of Osgilia will become the object of his life force!

Neither the emperor nor the leaders of the church dared to let such a catastrophe happen under their noses.

※※※After listening to this story of Hilafinkya, Char also sighed.

"Damn! that's awesome!" the turtle spat fiercely: "It's arrogant to the extreme." ”

He squinted at Tadora, "Are you sure this guy I killed is practicing the Life Curse Technique?"

Totaro pointed to the rings that had been ripped off the dead magician's fingers: "I can feel the power fluctuations in this ring! It's not the stored magic, it's not the necromancer's aura, it's ...... A kind of life force! a life force that has been extracted!"
