Chapter 11: Why Are You Here?
Although Jonathan looks very underbeaten, he is a very underbeaten guy, both in reality and in the films Josh has watched before.
However, it seems that the lack of beating does not mean that this guy is willing to be beaten, Jonathan decisively stayed away from Josh and when Josh issued a task for them to do, he immediately pulled O'Connor and Evelyn away quickly, for fear that Josh would really use him as a punching bag.
Josh gave Jonathan a funny look and then ignored it.
He had more important things to do, such as the fact that he was working on what looked like a ball in his hand.
Of course, this thing is not a real ball, and I'm afraid that there is no ball that can interest him except for football basketball and a certain ball that can arouse the news.
This thing Josh had asked for from Alexios, the Staff of Hermes Trismogitis.
The Staff of Hermes Trismojitis can change into various forms at will, which can make it more portable. As for such a technique, Josh didn't pay too much attention to it, and what he needed to solve now was to extract the vitality inside.
As for Alexios, Josh didn't intend to let him go like this.
In the game, when you end up with the scepter that Alexios hands you, his face immediately turns pale and his visible life force fades until he dies.
If Josh wants to study this scepter, he naturally has to take protective measures. Otherwise, there will probably be one more Alexios among Josh's resurrected personnel, which is definitely not acceptable to Josh, so Josh can only figure it out by himself.
"Hell, I didn't feel much before, but now I suddenly realize that Akatosh isn't here, and I really have a lot of things to mess with."
"Nonsense, and don't look at who I am? I'm the Great Sky Wings! Also, you're a bastard! ”
At that time, Josh was still thinking about what to do with Alexios, and he couldn't help but sigh if it would be better if he brought the dragon with him, but suddenly a voice came from his side.
Turning his head to look over, Josh saw a silver dragon cub with a look of disdain on his face.
"Hell! Why are you here? Josh was directly taken aback by the appearance of this guy!
"Why am I not here?"
"You didn't react at all when I called you before, and I probed my tattoo, and you didn't exist in it!"
"That's because I made the cut, and to put it bluntly, I'm a void creature now. When I was promoted, I directly turned into a Void element, which I didn't even think of myself, so it's normal that you can't find me. ”
"Wait! Does that mean that I do what you can see? Josh asked, his face darkened.
"Of course....." Akatosh nodded as a matter of course, and suddenly smiled as he looked at Josh's increasingly ugly face: "I can't see it." ”
"What do you mean?"
"I've become a void element, and naturally I don't have any consciousness, so I went straight to sleep, and the ghost knows what you did! Also, you human beings, you have a lot of in your head, I can see it, okay! ”
"Really?"
Josh looked at Akatosh with a suspicious expression, Akatosh did make Josh feel very bad, but the answer he gave now did not give Josh any reason to refute.
In the end, Josh could only nod with a dark face, believing Akatosh's words.
Although Josh's face is not very good-looking, having this guy Akatosh does save a lot of things in Josh.
Although Galen also gained some of Josh's memories, no matter how he compared, it was impossible to compare with Akatosh, who only knew a little about the current situation and immediately knew Josh's intentions.
"Help you seal Alexios' life force from passing away, won't you? I can do this, but it's a bit more cumbersome, and I have to remember that I don't like this kind of sealing magic in the first place. ”
"Are you worried that you have sealed someone and forgotten it, and as a result, your enemy is still in the seal, right?"
"Idiot, I'm just going to destroy my enemies directly, okay!"
It didn't take long for Akatosh to think of a way to seal and directly seal Alexios' life force.
Fortunately, in such a world where the limit is not high, Akatosh was directly promoted to the sixth order this time to exceed the limit of the world, otherwise he would not be able to do this step so easily.
Life has always been a relatively taboo topic, otherwise a professional like Josh would not be called a god-defying cultivator. After all, no matter what world it is, there is a limit to the life of a living being, and breaking this limit can be regarded as breaking the rules.
Sealing the life of a living being from passing away is even more contrary to this rule, and it can be said that the rule is even more inadmissible than breaking the boundaries of life through practice.
Of course, this inadmissibility is also relative, just as the caster exceeds this rule, then the rule is useless, and Akatosh is like that.
Holding the copper ball that the scepter turned into, Josh was thinking about how to extract the vitality inside, Galen and Natasha went to help O'Connor and them, and Alexios was adapting to the state of suddenly missing the blessing of the scepter, but fortunately he had begun to learn the battle qi, and had some achievements, so he adapted relatively quickly.
"This thing is the Staff of Hermes Trismogitis?" Akatosh stopped on Josh's shoulder and looked at the copper ball in confusion.
"Or else?"
"The vitality inside is indeed very full, and it is constantly self-creating vitality, but the level of these vitality is really low enough."
"Of course, I have an estimate of this. I just don't know if the vitality in this is enough for Immorton to come to life completely. ”
"Just give it a try, and you can also extract life force, you can consider using magic guidance."
"The way the magic leads?"
Josh touched his chin, magic guidance is actually the same as magic control, Josh didn't think of using such a method, but Josh felt that doing so might waste a lot of life force.
Life Force is much more fragile than mana, and it can be controlled with more precision than magic requires, and Josh worries that if he doesn't control it well, the life force will overflow.
"Of course, what else else can you do? It's enough to think of a way to spend you an unknown number of years. ”
"It seems to be the same."
Josh nodded, it was indeed more practical to simply and rudely resurrect Immorton and then learn from him what Josh wanted.
What's more, listening to what Akatosh said that this scepter can also create its own vitality, so what is Josh afraid of?
Not to mention, Josh really didn't know that this thing could create its own life force, although such a technique was very attractive, not to mention that Josh could use this technology to create Rivendell's medical system.
After thinking about it, Josh decided to let Howard study it well when he went back, and it would be great if he could get a higher level of vitality.
Thinking of this, Josh directly invaded his magic power into the staff of Hermes Trismogitis, and soon he felt the majestic vitality.
Slowly channeling these life forces with his magic, Josh found that it was indeed the same as he thought, when he channeled the life force out of the scepter, a part of the life force would be overflowed.
However, this is not too much of a hindrance, and most of the vitality is actually still in Josh's control.
Although there is waste, which can almost be counted as the vitality of an ordinary person for more than a hundred years, Josh didn't care too much about these and pressed these vitality back into the scepter.
He did it all casually, but Alexios looked like he had seen a ghost.
Of course he knew that pale golden energy, he had been using this energy for thousands of years, and he was naturally very familiar with it, but someone like Josh who directly controlled this kind of life force in his hands really never thought of it.
But the more horror Josh shows, the more happy Alexios feels.
He also slowly began to get in touch with these legendary powers, although it was only the beginning but he also felt some magical changes, even if it was just the beginning, he could clearly feel it.
He has been accepting the foreign life force for too long, and although his current body looks very strong, to be honest, the aging organs inside are still very obvious.
He knew that it would be over once he left that energy, but now he could feel that the organs in his body had begun to repair slowly.
Even if this speed is very slow, after all, he has aged for thousands of years, and he can't recover so quickly.
And with the help of the dragon who seemed to like to carry the bar with Josh, he was pleasantly surprised to find that he was able to break free from the scepter he had inherited from his biological father.
It's a very special feeling, and to be honest, he really doesn't want to inherit this thing if he chooses. The Staff of Hermes Trismogitis is not only a symbol of life, but also a symbol of responsibility, and the responsibility that Ericcios carries is too heavy.
This responsibility, and this seemingly endless vitality, has allowed Alexios to go through wars and see countless life and death partings. Even he himself had to face his friends, his relatives growing old in front of him one by one, dying in front of him.
Only he is still alive.
Even if he has gone through vicissitudes, even if his body is about to be corroded by time, he is still the same as before.
But now, after the appearance of this dragon, he felt that his life seemed to have changed, not to mention that he felt enough to see his friends and relatives!
Just as Alexios was thinking and sighing, suddenly Natasha ran back, and he knew that this beautiful woman was Josh's woman. Although beautiful enough to make any man feel emotional, Alexios didn't dare to have any ideas.
"Josh, we've found it.... Ay? Akatosh? Why are you here?! ”
