……

Look at Hibbert's serious look.

Matthew really wanted to complain, "Normal people don't knock their daughter unconscious." ”

But he eventually held back.

He walked over to check on the little girl's condition, and found that there were no injuries on the other's body, as if he had just fallen asleep.

"How did Feliwen fight?"

"I didn't find any traces of trauma."

Matthew asked curiously.

Hibbert sighed and said:

"She didn't fight with her hands, she used instant death spells."

"Instant death spells?"

Matthew was taken aback.

Hibbert explains:

"Yes, you should know that 'Twelve Deathknells', it's a classic necromancy ......"

Matthew nodded his head in understanding.

As far as he knows, "Twelve Knells" is a terrifying spell that uses sound waves as a medium to continuously determine the target in real time.

The specific manifestation of this spell is that it will allow you to hear the death knell from above.

Every time the death knell sounds.

Your body and soul will be condemned to death once.

Even if you succeed in waiving.

But the exemption of the bell will become more and more difficult in the next few times.

In particular, the eleventh and twelfth.

It is also the two most powerful instantaneous judgments of this spell.

It is said that even a physically strong warrior has less than half the success rate of a single exemption from these two deaths!

This shows how terrible this spell is.

Of course.

There is no such thing as an all-encompassing spell in this world.

Matthew knew that there were many ways to block out the sound of the death knell and thus avoid being ravaged by the spell of instant death.

So the twelve death knells are very famous.

But it wasn't on Matthew's list of required studies after he entered the Fifth Order.

"Wait, what I want to ask is, why did you use the instant death spell on her?"

Matthew interrupted Hibbert's explanation.

The latter was stunned for a moment and replied:

"To protect her."

"Huh?"

Matthew's face was puzzled.

Hibbert explains:

"Vilien is doing this to accurately test her resistance to instant death spells, this data is very important, only by understanding this data, we can better protect her."

"Oh, don't worry, she won't be damaged in any way during the test, see? This is the resurrection circle, and once the Instant Death decision is in effect and she enters the death state, we will immediately resurrect her. ”

"We'll calculate the amount of advance to make sure she's resurrected quickly enough so that her soul won't be damaged at all......"

Matthew looked at the equipment and formation next to him.

It's really a serious resurrection circle.

There was a hint of envy in his eyes—

This stuff doesn't come cheap!

Just one resurrection circle is enough to build two spell guilds!

It seems that Hibbert and Feliwen's financial resources are still above Matthew's imagination.

"Actually, we've done a lot of similar resistance tests in the past, and it was all smooth sailing before, but now it's wrong."

Hibbert continues:

"There are only two results from this kind of test, either immunity or death."

"Needless to say, if she dies on the spot, it can be solved - but now there is a third situation, she passed out."

"This is a new condition that has never been seen before, we have just examined it, her body is in a dormant state with a very low metabolism, much like a hibernating animal, but her brain is highly active, as if she has entered some dream ...... that we are not familiar with"

"She is not dead and alive like this, which is the most worrying!"

Matthew scratched his head.

He was just about to introduce the Rotten Bag Lord Hasman, who was good at entering dreams, to Hibbert.

Feliwin suddenly walked over from the next room with a large pile of spellbooks and notebooks.

Matthew glanced at the books in her arms, some of which had the words "Deep Dive Program" written on their covers.

She looked down at the magic book and said as she walked:

"I've found a similar case."

"This situation has also occurred among the members of the first phase of the deep diving program, and the specific situation is that they have been stimulated by the outside world and have entered a semi-self-contained state."

"The reason for this may be that her magic has been stimulated and has entered a phase of rapid growth, and her brain has automatically activated the locking mechanism in order to protect her body from forming a spell casting circuit that is addictive to the ether."

"This coma is actually a kind of protection, and it is expected that she will wake up after a while, and she will become stronger when she wakes up...... Well? Matthew? ”

Feliwin finally saw Matthew.

Matthew smiled slightly:

"I took the liberty of visiting, and I bothered you."

Vilien quickly stacked all the books together, nodded at Matthew, and walked past him.

She took out a book alone and grabbed it in her arms, hurried to the next door to get two large beakers, and then looked at Matthew very politely:

"Something is wrong with our children, but it shouldn't be a big deal."

"I'm sorry I can't entertain you."

"Uh, do you need milk tea? I remember you loved to drink......"

Between words.

The two large beakers were filled with cloudy milk tea.

A faint aroma wafted over the resurrection circle.

Matthew immediately took a sip of it, and it was still familiar with the texture and sweetness, and it tasted quite good.

"It's great."

Matthew praised:

"It's probably the best milk tea I've ever had in Aindo."

"How the hell did you do that?"

A smile appeared on Feliwen's face:

"It's just a small skill of carving insects."

"It's the surprise of what you did on the Blood Moon, and the smashing of the Star Core was so cool - did you take the opportunity to get some Star Core fragments?"

Matthew shook his head:

"There's no chance of that."

The situation at that time was too dangerous, he was too busy to save his life, where did he dare to reach out?

Feliwen's face was full of regret:

"It's a pity."

Then she turned to look at Hibbert:

"I've found a workable coping plan, and now I need to go to Lord Youruo for approval, please help me take a look at my daughter."

Hibbert nodded:

"I'll keep an eye on her."

Fei Liwen showed a hint of hesitation on her face, and then couldn't help but say more:

"I mean, if something new happens to her, remember to let me know as soon as possible, or find a way to fix it, instead of just literally staring at her......"

Hibbert showed a look of sudden realization:

"That's what you mean."

"I see."

"Go ahead."

Vilien left worriedly.

Hibbert's face was as usual.

Matthew, who was observing from the side, suddenly laughed:

"Actually, you can understand what she means, right?"

Hibbert laughed too:

"She always thinks I'm stupid, and it's fine."

"Occasionally cooperating with her can save you a lot of trouble."

Matthew looked at Hibbert with interest.

It seems that this magical genius is not as ignorant as he had predicted.

He's even a little cunning.

"So what exactly is your relationship with Feliwen?"

Matthew couldn't help but gossip.

Hibbert blinked:

"Colleague Relations."

Matthew doesn't believe it:

"A normal colleague doesn't have a daughter."

"And your daughter is pretty too."

"It's pretty good." Hibbert's face showed a rare affection.

But then this love turned into disappointment and regret:

"But we can't get too emotionally entangled with her, it's bad for both of us."

"She's a product of the Deep Diving Program."

Planning a deep dive?

Matthew looked at Hibbert for some reason.

He realized that this could be a subject with a high level of secrecy.

Just as he hesitated to continue asking.

Hibbert took the initiative to send him and beckoned:

"Take out your spell license and I'll record it."

Matthew handed over his license.

Hibbert shook it off with a trick, and then gave it back to Matthew:

"A1 title, second-level councillor, you can learn about the peripheral information of the deep diving program after registration."

He paused, as if in thought, and it was a full two minutes before Hibbert spoke again.

It's just that when this guy speaks, he gives people the feeling of reading from the script:

"Do you know the soul, the spirituality, and the imprint?"

"Based on our current research in the field of the soul, it can be determined that spirituality and imprinting are the two most important components of the soul, an independent soul, and both are indispensable."

"Of course, in addition to spirituality and imprints, there are some other mysterious things in the soul, what I will tell you is an abbreviated version, and the official version is very complicated, I don't bother to say ......"

Hibbert grabbed the milk tea from another beaker and took a sip, then continued:

"It is well known that after a person's death, his soul travels to the underworld."

"In the underworld, after a series of trial procedures, the vast majority of souls will be stripped into two parts - one part is the spiritual return to the land of the underworld, and the other part is branded to the rootless river under the escort of the messenger of the underworld."

"The river without roots is the river of the birth mother, it is the origin of all things, and the river flows with an abundance of natural elements, which of course contain the most important spirituality of the soul."

"The river of rootlessness is formless, formless, and ubiquitous, and it rushes in every corner of the major planes, but we ordinary people cannot perceive it."

"The waters of the rootless river are filled with countless imprints and spiritualities, and every moment a new imprint is born, and the imprint of the old enters the river from the underworld."

"The imprint floats and sinks in the river, and in the process, most of the imprints change their inherent shape, and they will also indirectly absorb the spirituality in the river water to become a new soul."

"This is the special state of the soul that we call blank at the beginning of life."

"When the time comes, the blank soul will be inspired by the law of procreation, and at a certain moment it will enter the womb of the mother, and a new life will be born."

"That's all we can understand about the secrets of the afterlife."

"And as I said before, because the imprint is constantly rising and falling and washing in the river, the framework of the imprint has actually been changed compared to before the death."

"Therefore, a person who is reincarnated through the river of rootlessness can only be regarded as an inheritor, not as a true reincarnation."

"Although the brand is still the same brand, the soul is no longer the same soul."

"It is precisely in order to circumvent this that most incarnated beings are reluctant to wade into the rootless river easily, and they will do everything in their power to preserve their imprint, to ensure its integrity and solidity-

For example, the infamous Sea Spirit Reincarnation Method, which is an evil technique that can strengthen the original framework of the imprint to the greatest extent.

But for those big.

Imprinted, everything is there.

So they will do everything in their power to find a similar way out. ”

Speaking of which.

Hibbert's gaze turned to the little girl.

The emotions in his eyes were complicated, but at most he was at a loss.

Matthew listened quietly.

Hibbert continued:

"But there are unforeseen circumstances, and even those powerful beings who are unwilling to let their imprint fall into the river of rootlessness are only a few of the few who can eventually transcend."

"The imprints produced by these beings are much more powerful than those of the rest of the river of their kind, and in the process of being washed by the river, these imprints have a certain probability of sinking to the bottom of the river, and have a unique gravitational pull on reasonable spirituality and other elements."

"Over time, these heavy imprints did not drift with the tide on the merger like other imprints, but drifted slowly at the bottom of the river."

"In this process, the surface of the brand creates a protective mechanism to prevent it from being further washed and altered by the river."

"These stigma do not completely lose themselves like other stigmas, and according to reliable sources, they may only change to the extent of 3 to 5 percent as a whole."

"Thus the blank souls created by these imprints will be more powerful, and they will have a new personality and a new self after their reincarnation, but they will be closer to their previous lives."

"When you're looking back in history, you may feel that a certain historical figure is particularly relatable, and in this case, it is very likely that your imprint comes from that historical figure."

"In essence, you are also two people, but compared to ordinary reincarnations, you will have better talents and potential, especially at the soul level."

"And these imprints deposited at the bottom of the rootless river are what we call the deep diving imprint."

Speaking of which.

Hibbert's statement gradually became clear:

"The purpose of the Deep Dive Program is to find and train stronger, new-age mages."

"We've found that creatures that carry the reincarnated imprint of the old imprint tend to be more gifted than those who have a new imprint, and the deep imprint is even more so."

"Why don't we directly search for the deep-diving imprints of the Rootless River with the cultivation of new people who are looking for a needle in a haystack, and then combine the souls generated by these imprints with artificial breeding spells to cultivate a replica of the strong man who has left traces in history?"

"What I just said is probably the basic content of the deep diving program."

"It sounds reasonable, but at the execution level, we're in a lot of trouble!"

"If it weren't for Lord Linde's guidance, we wouldn't have been able to complete the search for the Deep Dive Imprint......

Then he talked about a lot of very esoteric theories and problems encountered in practice.

Matthew could only nod or meditate.

Because he has penetrated into a field that he does not understand......

"Lind is the only one in the league who has ever entered the River of Rootlessness, and according to Hibbert, all the dive imprints involved in the diving program were captured by Linde."

Matthew thought to himself.

The River of Rootless is a supreme mystical realm.

It is a river of miracles on the road to death.

If Matthew can enter the rootless river once and return safely, the road to legend will definitely be completely sublimated!

"So how many deep dive imprints did you salvage?"

Taking advantage of Hibbert's tiredness, Matthew asked a question that was easier for him to understand.

Hibbert thought for a moment:

"Twenty, probably less than thirty."

"These imprints later became Viliwen's children......"

Matthew's eyes couldn't help but widen:

"You mean, Feliwen has nearly thirty children?"

Hibbert nodded:

"It's all conceived and produced in vitro through fertility spells."

"In the field of soul and fertility, Fei Liwen can be said to be an expert, even if she is a legendary mage, few people dare to say that they are more professional than her."

"She has a separate class in the magic academy attached to the Hall of Wisdom, and the children in the class are all the product of the deep diving program, they all call her mother, and Feliwin loves those children......"

Matthew couldn't help but scratch his head.

He didn't know how many times he had scratched his head today.

With strong self-control, he barely resisted the embarrassing question of "who are the fathers of the other children".

Although Hibbert will most likely not feel embarrassed.

But that way.

Matthew himself would have felt even more embarrassed.

"Sure enough."

"There are few normal mages, and even more so for academic mages!"

Think of it.

He couldn't help but point to the little girl lying on the bed:

"So you know where her deep-diving brand came from?"

Heberdish said,

"There is a high probability that it is the goddess of magic Yeli, and there is a small probability that it is Yeli's twin sister."

"Either way, she's gifted and uniquely adaptable enough to make her the best heir to the Goddess of Magic."

"Maybe she'll help Lord Ronan crack the secrets of the Aether Gate."

Ronan knew about it, too.

Matthew knew in his heart that there were probably many similar topics, and the mages in this floating city looked very busy every day, and they were probably studying these abstract things.

"So she herself knows?"

Matthew asked.

Hibbert affirmed:

"You know, when she was five years old, she had the mind of a normal eighteen-year-old, and out of respect for the deep diving brand, we told her these things a long time ago."

"She was very calm and told us that she considered herself lucky."

"From birth to now, she has behaved like a normal person."

"Generally speaking, members of the deep diving program have psychological problems - mainly cognitive misalignment, but she has performed very well and has been mentally healthy all the time!"

When praising his daughter.

Hibbert couldn't help but exude a hint of pride.

Although Matthew thinks that this guy is probably providing some genetic material in the plan.

But the strange resonance that comes from the blood is also between Hibbert and the little girl in front of him.

When he looked at the little girl, his eyes were full of tenderness, and the chaotic and melancholy temperament that had long enveloped him disappeared.

That's a good thing for Hibbert.

At the very least, it can give his brain, which is constantly thinking and has nowhere to put it, a respite.

The two chatted for a while.

Feliven reappeared.

She confronted Hibbert and said:

"Lord Youruo said that you can try the "refrigerator method", which is the specific content of the special version of the refrigerator technique applicable to the human body, can you see?"

Hibbert glanced at it a few times:

"Got it."

The next moment.

Under Matthew's gaze, Hibbert sang a few syllables.

The water element in the air was instantly drained.

Followed by.

The sound of freezing sounded.

The little girl was instantly taken to bed and placed in a huge piece of ice!

"Is that enough?"

Hibbert asked.

Viliwen knocked on the periphery of the ice, revealing a look of satisfaction:

"Enough is enough."

"Cryotherapy will reduce the overheated mana circuit in her body, while preventing her from sinking deeper and deeper into her dreams."

"Let's watch it for a week, and after a week if there's no movement, think of something else."

Hear this.

Hibbert's eyes showed a hint of concern.

Matthew took the opportunity to say:

"If there's any more questions, I can bring a friend over and take a look, he's an expert in the field of dreams."

Hibbert and Feliwen glanced at each other, and both said they had no opinion.

Then the three of them left the room.

During this time, Matthew brought up the matter of the Spell Guild.

Hibbert repeatedly apologized, claiming that he was too busy thinking to make the appointment.

Fei Liwen listened to the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but interject and ask:

"Spell Guild? It seems to be interesting, but I would like to ask, can I participate too? ”

Matthew said without thinking:

"Of course!"

Although the places in the guild are precious, a genius mage like Feliwen will naturally not be turned away.

Don't look at her actual combat and all kinds of collapses.

But in terms of theoretical research, Fei Liwen is the top of the younger generation.

Spell talent aside.

Even Hibbert had to bow his head obediently in front of her.

Present.

Matthew simply invited them to the Moonhaze Glade.

In front of the gathering stones.

The two left their own spiritual imprint.

Matthew gave the membership badges to the two as usual, and as usual, the new members were intrigued by the Spell Guild, a product of its time.

However, these two are obviously more professional.

The content of the chat also pointed directly to the spell structure within the guild-

"Is the guild spell implemented through the Magical Anemone? Hey, this anemone looks so ugly! ”

"Magic web? Isn't this a backward ritual field that has proven to be inefficient, costly, instable, and not widely used? But you don't think it's a very high cost......"

"What the hell is Room X? Is the meaning of X a topic without taboos? ”

Most of the time it was Feliven asking.

Hibbert is a contemplation of all kinds.

After a while.

The spell elf Sissy chatted with Matthew again privately:

"Why would anyone stuff stones into a warehouse? And it's all heart-shaped, weird and scary......"

Matthew took a look:

"Oh, Hibbert loves sculptures, those must have been carved by hand."

Sissy asked again:

"What about milk tea?"

Matthew looked at the dazzling array of milk tea in the warehouse, and couldn't help but use the authority of the president to steal a few cups:

"The more the merrier."

Followed by.

He saw that Feliwen had stuffed a lot of animal brains into the guild warehouse.

It looked like a prop that had just been used in the lab, and some of it was still steaming.

Even Matthew had nothing to say now.

"Can you tell them not to stuff everything into the guild storehouse?!"

"It's really hard to clean!"

Cissy wanted to cry without tears.

Matthew only tactfully raised Sissy's complaint to the two mages.

The two men soon ceased operations.

Hibbert asked with interest:

"When will the chat room feature be available?"

Matthew introduced Bobo, who was busy building a communication network in the woodland, to the two:

"This is our Chief Mechanic, and she will be in charge of building the guild's communication network."

Bobo looked a little nervous when he met the living man, and touched the lower edge of his helmet vigorously.

Matthew pointed to Hibbert and Feliven and said:

"This is Hibbert, the chief mage of our guild."

"This is Ms. Felivan, and she is the chief mage of the guild in the soul realm."

Bobo couldn't help but look at Matthew suspiciously:

"What about you?"

Matthew said without changing his face:

"Of course, I'm our guild's chief mage in the necromancy realm."

Bobo is a little staggered:

"There are so many chiefs of our guild......"

Hibbert suddenly interjected:

"Matthew, I think by optimizing the link structure between the anemones, we can add a spell slot."

"Do you think there are any spells that are currently lacking in the guild?"

Matthew's face was overjoyed.

Really.

The mages of the academic school are stronger in this regard than those from a wild path like themselves.

"You look at the change, look at the addition, you can do it."

Matthew said casually.

Hibbert was amazed:

"Is that one of the spells in the Time Stand Still series?"

Matthew's eyes widened suddenly:

"Time stands still? Can these magic anemone larvae afford it? ”

Bobo looked confused as well.

Hibbert nodded:

"I think I can try."

Vilien also interjected:

"I can help you optimize the structure of the magic net, your magic net is too rough to build, and since there is a guild as a reference coordinate, why not open an instantaneous return teleportation spell?"

"You don't need a magic anemone, you only need to enchant it three times on the Returning City Emblem, and then set the mark on the collection stone, and I can make a charging circle next to it and draw the required mana directly from the mana pool......"

"That way, every guild member can instantly return to the city with the badge."

"Also, the name of Matthew's Spell Guild is too ordinary, isn't it?"

"Can't you just come up with a bright name?"

Vilien made several comments in one go.

Matthew rubbed his temples.

Without saying a word, he directly opened part of the authority of the Moonhazy Woodland to the two of them, and then set up Hibbert as the vice president of the guild, and the matter of transforming the Spell Guild was handed over to these two academic geniuses!

The two of them soon got into action with Bobo.

Look at their busy figures.

Matthew suddenly felt that he was a little redundant.

He went back to the forest and planted trees for a while.

Around noon.

A magical letter from afar arrives in Matthew's hands.

Take it apart and take a look.

The handwriting on it is chic and elegant, and the image of Loran jumps on the page.

……

"Dear Matthew,

When you receive this letter.

Little Eli and I have arrived in the Land of a Thousand Lakes.

I can tell you responsibly.

Eli's fall in love with Queen Yukihime this time is also charming.

I've always been a little prejudiced against demon warlocks, but this time I came to find that demon warlocks have a different flavor.

Not only are they enthusiastic, but they also summon many strange demons to help them out.

When you have an in-depth conversation with them, it feels like a barbecue.

And I'm the stick.

It was a wonderful experience that is difficult to describe in a few words.

I think this place is great for relaxing.

I will probably stay in this place for a long time.

Eli is determined to be the prince of the land of a thousand lakes. Right

We're both fine now.

I've also found an ancient valley here, so if you have time, call Carmela and we'll join forces again.

That's right.

I have attached a spiritual imprint of myself and Eli to this letter.

You should understand how to withdraw it, right?

Just send me the badge when the time comes."

……

Barbecue skewers?

What a strange and abstract metaphor.

Matthew smiled and put the letter away.

The next moment.

An immature voice suddenly sounded in Matthew's heart:

"Matthew, Will has successfully passed the trials on the Isle of Eternity, and as is customary, he will be a new member of the Spore Society."

"I want all members to be present as much as possible during this process."

"Are you free to come over?"

……
