Chapter 376: Decision
Chapter 376 [Decision]
If Chen Daolin was only a native of this world, then it would be impossible to figure out this strange phenomenon even if he thought about it.
But he is a traverser.
Coming from the real world, the biggest advantage it brings to him is the perfect modern education system in the real world that he received since he was a child.
The magical power of this world, if it is explained by using chemistry or even physics, it is as if a golden door has opened in front of Chen Daolin!!
......
Tide!
Tidal effects, to be precise. Roughly speaking, it is an effect in the real world due to the gravitational pull of stars such as the gravitational pull of the earth, the gravitational pull of the moon and the gravitational force of the sun.
The earliest tides only refer specifically to seawater, and with the gravitational pull of celestial bodies, especially the moon, repeated tidal action for a fixed period of time, the high tide and low tide of sea water, and so on.
But with in-depth research, the tidal effect is not only on the seawater, but also on the atmosphere, such as the tidal effect, air pressure, aura, and even magnetic field!
The most important thing is that Chen Daolin is sure of one thing: in this Roland world, there are stars, sun, and moon in the sky!!
In this case, then in this world, there must also be the rule of tides!
If the power in Fang Cai's Horcrux ring is considered to be seawater, when these powers are released, there is an effect similar to "recycling", although this effect seems to be very weak, and the effect of recovery is very small. However, it is in line with some of the laws of tidal action.
So...... This can just explain the problem that Chen Daolin is currently facing!
If we speculate further, we may be able to come to such a conclusion?
Although I don't know how this Roland world is different from the real world in terms of structure, it can be shown from the discovery just now that the magical elements of this world are there. But it is also affected by the action of the tide!!
Release, recycling, release, recycling, under the action of the most simple and simple tidal force, it caused the phenomenon that after the elf wore the Horcrux ring just now, there was actually a trace of necromantic power left in her body that was sucked back into the Horcrux ring!
If you want to make an analogy, it is like when the sea is at low tide, the things that are stuck in the sea are swept into the sea by the force of the low tide......
That's probably what it means.
"The magical element of this world. It also has a tidal effect...... "Chen Daolin is getting more and more excited! He can be sure, but it is definitely a heavy discovery.
But after the excitement, a practical question in front of him was: what practical significance can such a heavy discovery bring to him?
For a moment, Chen Daolin, who already possessed profound knowledge of alchemy, suddenly burst out with countless sparks and inspirations in his mind! He even faintly caught a thought: it seemed that the idea of the magic machine that he had been pursuing, if he could add the tidal rules of the magic element to it, it would be tantamount to a leap breakthrough!
Trying to forcibly suppress the excitement in his heart, Chen Daolin refocused his attention on Barossa.
The immediate imperative. It's about finding a way to get rid of the necromantic power on the clean elves.
The dumbest way to do it...... Maybe you can repeat the action over and over again?
Urge the undead power of the Horcrux to be released, and then use the effect of the tide to suck the undead power on Barossa's body back into the Horcrux when the power is recovered?
It's a good idea.
In the event that time is of the essence. For the time being, Chen Daolin didn't have much time to allow him to carefully and slowly study how to use this new magical discovery, and he could only adopt this stupid method.
He let Xia Xia out of the room and instructed the people outside not to come in and disturb him.
In the next half a day, Chen Daolin repeatedly triggered the skill of "Wolf King Roaring" several times.
Each time it induces the undead power in the Horcrux ring. He used his spiritual power very carefully to capture the trajectory of the undead power, trying to capture the laws, as well as the speed and frequency.
After repeating it several times. Using the tidal effect of the undead power element of the Horcrux, the remaining undead power element on Barossa's body was sucked back into the Horcrux ring little by little.
The results are obvious.
At least in Chen Daolin's observation with the "Druid Eyes", the undead power on Barossa's body, those black power elements, has been greatly reduced, and finally almost reduced to less than two percent of the original.
What gave Chen Daolin a headache was that after repeating it five or six times, the tidal effect could no longer completely absorb the undead power on the Barossa God!
It's not that the law of the tides has disappeared, but Chen Daolin is very helpless to see it, because Barossa has been "infected" after all, although the infected Cheng dΓΉ is not too heavy, but after such a period of time, after all, some of her original wood attribute power has been swallowed and fused by a part of the undead power, turning into a dark green being.
These parts that have been completely fused are no longer pure undead power attributes, and they can no longer be brought out by the action of the tides.
For the time being, however, Chen Daolin is already satisfied with the results achieved.
When it was dark, Chen Daolin walked out of the room again.
He's tired!
After all, after a whole day, repeatedly urging the Horcrux and the skill of "Wolf King Roaring" consumed his magic power very much, and in the ring of his reserve magic power, the reserves were almost consumed in continuous battles these days. Unable to replenish his mind immediately, Chen Daolin could only rejuvenate himself through normal rest and meditation.
Seeing that Chen Daolin, who was already a little pale and tired, walked back to the hall, Montoya immediately greeted him, looked at Chen Daolin, and said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, ......"
Chen Daolin waved his hand, glanced at the people in the hall, coughed lightly, and announced, "Let's rest for another night, and leave here early tomorrow morning." Montoya, you and Ade are in charge of collecting some supplies. For the horses left behind by the garrison, you can pick a few with good foot strength. There is also food and water, bring some with you as well. β
Chen Daolin then turned his gaze to the baron's family.
He found. Although the baron's family of three sat there, the atmosphere was a little strange. Polomeir, in particular, stared at the baron's mistress with gloomy eyes, full of hatred and anger. It was Baron Pierre, who looked at Chen Daolin and stopped talking, but finally shook his head and sighed.
It seems that on the day and night when he stayed in the house, something must have happened to the family outside that he didn't know.
He looked at Montoya with questioning eyes. The Holy Knight just shook his head and didn't speak.
Chen Daolin thought about it, and still walked to the baron's side: "Your Excellency, you will leave here early tomorrow morning, and I apologize for all the trouble we have caused you." I want to ......"
As he spoke, Chen Daolin took out something from his storage ring, which was a thumb-sized gemstone. He gently placed it on the table in front of the baron, "Although I know that it is very inappropriate to make up for it with money. But please understand that the only way I can compensate you now is with money. Thankfully, I'm a magician. It's pretty rich. β
The value of this gem is enough to compensate for the baron's ruined annex, and it can even be said that even if ten annexes are rebuilt. It's enough, too.
"My personal advice, though, is that it's best for you and your family not to stay here. This time the matter is too big, I'm afraid the local government will never be able to suppress it, and after I leave, I will always have to push out someone to carry such a black pot. When the time comes, I'm afraid you'll ......"
Baron Pierre's lips moved, but at this time, Polomir finally couldn't hold it back!
He jumped up, glared at his father, and shouted: "Father!!How long do you have to hesitate!! do you have to watch our family die? Do you have to wait, wait for our whole family to be put in prison and ask for guilt, then you will regret it!!
As he spoke, Bolomir turned to look at Chen Daolin and said loudly, "Mr. Magician! Mr. Darling!! I beg you...... If you're going to leave here, can you take me with you? I can't stay in this damn place! I don't want to stay here waiting to be captured by the army and thrown into a stinking cage!!"
Well?
Chen Daolin was stunned for a moment, looked at Boromir, and then looked at the old baron, before frowning: "Bolomir, your identity is a nobleman, you are the heir of the baron, if you leave with me, then this identity ......."
"Hell's identity!Hell's heir!!Hell's barony!!" Boromir shouted, waving his arms vigorously and shouting, "Unless I have a nice baronial title, what can this status bring me?!We eat and drink as well as the merchants in the town!We still have to die to support our own dignity!!We can't even afford to hire a servant!!We scattered all our possessions and spent them on Uncle Quinn!!But as a result, he brought us nothing but disaster!! I don't want to stay here!I don't want to stay any longer!!I'm going to get out of here!, even if I don't have any more titles of nobility!!Master Mage, please take me with you!!"
Chen Daolin did not answer directly.
To be honest, Chen Daolin has no interest in this Boromir - he has no intention of accepting the younger brother along the way, and he takes 10,000 steps back and says that even if he wants to accept the younger brother, the son of this mediocre and incompetent and somewhat cowardly baron is far from entering Chen Daolin's vision.
Even if Lao Tzu can't receive Zhao Yun, he can't accept Pan Feng!
However, Chen Daolin was a little sorry for the baron's family after all, especially for the old baron, if the old baron was willing to leave with him, even if it was to help them avoid trouble, he was willing to take them with him.
But this is also up to the old baron to speak himself, a Bolomir...... Chen Daolin didn't bother to pay attention to him.
The wrinkles on Baron Pierre's face twitched faintly, and he looked at his son with a complicated gaze, and then his eyes fell on his woman again, and then he finally let out a long sigh.
Standing up slowly, Baron Pierre bowed deeply to Chen Daolin.
Chen Daolin hurriedly returned the salute, and when the old baron stood up, the expression on his face had become solemn: "It's all fate that things have developed to this point...... My brother's ambition brought disaster to our family, and now ...... Your Excellency Master Darling, I know that you are a man of great ability. I also admire your demeanor and open-mindedness. I'm very clear, keep staying here. Our family will only face extinction. I know best what the virtues of these local officials, and of the garrison officers, are. I'm going to have to take this step too. Your Excellency Darling, although I am old and useless, at least I still have some martial arts, I can ride a horse, and I can wield a sword. Also, I know a little bit about how to run a business. I also know a lot about the trade routes in the Northwest. If you don't dislike it, please take our family of three on the road together. From now on, I would like to follow in the footsteps of an illustrious magician like you. β
said. The old baron shook his head and said with a wry smile: "My original wish was to gather the power of the family, bring out a magician, and then pin the hope of the family's revitalization on him, but I didn't expect Quinn to make such a big mistake and harm our whole family." And now...... But I have to pin my family's hopes on another magician, which has to be said to be a joke of fate. β
Chen Daolin sighed and said to the baron: "Speaking of which." I'm the one who dragged down your whole family. If you don't dislike it, come with me. I promise to stay by my side in the future, and I will definitely give you and your family. A good place to be. β
......
With the addition of the Baron's family, the original plan to go on the road early the next morning had to be postponed again.
After all, the Baron's family has been here for generations and wants to leave. Naturally, there are many soft and valuable things to be taken away. Pack up some ancestral items, put weapons in order, carriages. And so on and so forth.
Fortunately, Chen Daolin is not in a hurry, it will take at least ten days and half a month for the pursuers to come, and it makes no difference if he walks one day earlier and one day later.
Anyway, since this garrison was completely defeated by himself, there was no army force that could threaten him within a radius of a hundred miles.
It takes five or six days to transmit the news from here to the imperial capital, and then it takes another five or six days to send elites from the imperial capital to hunt down him, and during this period, there is also the delay of the official reporting process - the efficiency of government affairs in the cold weapon feudal era is naturally not too high.
Even to say a very unkind thing, during this period, even if Chen Daolin gathers people to rebel, the local government of the empire within a radius of 100 miles will not have any resistance power!
......
At night, Chen Daolin and the others naturally seized the time to recuperate, and even Chen Daolin himself was seizing the time to meditate and restore his magic power.
The baron, father and son, had a special conversation in their room:
"Father, have you really decided that our family will follow this Darling Chan magician?I think we should follow them on the road for the time being, and when we get out of here and find a safe place, let's go to my mother, whose relationship with the Tulip family will definitely protect us." β
"Idiot!" the old baron slapped his son hard, he looked at his son deeply, his eyes showed complete disappointment, but finally he sighed, and said slowly: "Our family is finished! If we get into such a big lawsuit, no matter what, our family will be pushed out as a scapegoat! An army of a garrison battalion has been destroyed in our house, and a garrison chief has died here! Someone from the local government must bear this responsibility! Our family is just a small nobleman, and the title is only a baron, so we are the best candidates to carry the black cauldron! I have already thought about it, our family is now desperate! As for looking for your mother's refuge, don't even think about it! Your mother is only a servant of the Tulip family! In the hinterland of the empire, an imperial army was wiped out as a regiment, what a big case! There has never been such a case in a hundred years! In such a case, the Tulip family may not come forward to protect us! Besides, what do we have to do with the tulip family? Your mother is just a servant of other people! Don't forget it! Besides, the old duke is no longer here, and now it is the young lady who presides over the tulip! She may not have much affection for your mother! In this world, no one can rely on herself as much as she depends on herself!"
After a pause, the old baron shook his head: "I don't think this Darling Chen is by any means an ordinary person! You idiot, don't you have a little awareness? Among the people who followed him, the majestic warrior was clearly a high-ranking martial artist! Moreover, from his behavior, I could clearly smell the smell of the ascetic of the church! The one with the bow and arrow could use healing techniques skillfully, and I remember the healing techniques of the high priest of the local church. Also, have you ever seen an ordinary magician with a werewolf warrior by his side? Have you ever seen an ordinary magician with a beautiful female elf family member? This person was captured by His Majesty the Emperor, but you can see that he has not been anxious or afraid at all in the past few days all the way to our house, and this person's demeanor is the only one I have ever seen in my life! It seems that the emperor's wanted is not in his eyes at all! I have only seen one person in my life! This kind of bearing is only one person in my life! It is the noble man your mother served back then. The previous Duke of the Tulip family!"
Seeing that his son was still at a loss, the old baron sighed in his heart and continued: "Our family is now finished! I have been working hard for many years just to revitalize the family, but now it seems that even this baron's title cannot be kept! Once we are arrested and questioned, it will be a catastrophe! In this case, it is better to give up these things! Follow this amazing magician! I have seen that this man is by no means simple. By following him and serving him, maybe in the future our family will have hope of rising again!...... You are my son, but you are a coward. With mediocrity, I can't count on you. Now, I'm counting on me to live a few more years and serve this magician well. Earn a new family business so that you can inherit it in the future. β
After a pause, the old baron's face became extremely stern. He said in a deep voice: "Remember, from tomorrow onwards, when we are by this magician's side, you will completely forget your identity! You are no longer the son of a baron, and I am no longer a baronial noble! We are all his followers! Only in this way can we win his true trust!"
I've heard Quinn say that this Master Darling Chan is very famous in the imperial capital, and he is even a professor at the Academy of Magic! After all, he is a magician, and after a few years, the emperor can't be too persecutive on a magician, and there may be a day of reconciliation in the future, and at that time, if we work for this magician, he will take us a hand and help us rebuild our family, maybe we can achieve a bigger situation than now!
Alas, I have gambled all the hopes of my family, and I hope that fate will stop tormenting us poor people. β
Bolomir was stunned for a moment, and looked at his father blankly, the old baron in front of him, his eyes were blazing, his face was full of shrewdness, where was there still the old and mediocre look on weekdays?
He couldn't help but lose his voice and said, "Father...... You ......"
"I knew it in my heart. The old baron shook his head: "Since you have followed others, don't have any other thoughts, and serve him well! Master Darling is a very shrewd man, and it will never work to disobey him, only by working hard to serve him and win his affection, we will have a bright day." But...... There's one thing you remember!"
"What?"
"In the future...... If I die, then I will ask Master Darling to reward you with a share of the family inheritance, so that you can inherit it well, and then you can find a place to be a rich man and live honestly......!
......
Finally, on the morning of the third day, the group left the Baron's Mansion.
There were three carriages in the group, one carriage, in which Martin and the werewolf, who were seriously injured and had broken arms, and in the second carriage, the baron's woman, the elf and the two Xia Xia, and in the third carriage, there were some personal belongings brought out by the baron's family, all of which were valuable things, as well as water and food needed along the way.
The elf had already woken up the night before.
When she woke up, Barossa didn't seem to be out of here.
Merely...... The elf still seems to remember what happened "that day", especially remembering that he was crazy and used a way that was almost "backwards" to ......
After waking up, Barossa, because she still remembered these things, showed a very strange attitude towards Chen Daolin, the elf was originally weak and shy, and she was almost embarrassed to face Chen Daolin again, and even if Chen Daolin ended up with her a little, the elf would immediately blush with shame and shrink aside.
Chen Daolin couldn't cry or laugh, and he was embarrassed to put too much pressure on her, but although Barossa hid aside, she still couldn't help but use her shy eyes to peek at Chen Daolin all the time, and the love in her eyes was naturally impossible to hide - such a look also made Chen Daolin feel quite useful.
The group hit the road and continued northwest.
Along the way, it really did not surprise Chen Daolin, the spread of the wanted warrant and the official response were very slow, and he walked all the way to the northwest, without even encountering any obstacles, and the villages, towns and cities he passed through, the wanted warrants had not yet been posted here, let alone the chasing soldiers.
The group almost swaggered, pretending to be a small caravan of merchants, and headed northwest.
After more than half a month, on this day, it finally officially entered the northwest region of the empire.
Nulin Province. (To be continued......)
