Chapter 181: An anchor that changes the future

The Ascendant Warlock, like the Scholar of Mortal Sin, is a bequest from the Celestial Division.

The fallen Tenji has brought new powers to people, and as these powers are further developed, they discover professions that already exist in this world, but are hidden because no one has discovered them.

"If you want to become a metamorphosis warlock, you must learn to 'molt'."

"Molting?"

When David heard this terrible word, he hesitated: "Do you mean to peel off your own skin and grow it again?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Not. ”

Ivas couldn't help but laugh: "It's the 'molting ritual', it's like a worm turning into a cocoon and a butterfly. Abandon your old body and get a more beautiful body.

"This is the power of the Butterfly Tenji of the Path of Beauty...... He is able to lighten up the ugly and reshape its shell. There is a ritual of borrowing the power of the Butterfly Celestial Division, which is to make people change their appearance. ”

In the words of the player, it is "washing your face" - that is, re-pinching your face.

Whether it's race, gender, age, size, looks...... Except for the "Origin" selected when creating the character, all other parts can be changed.

This is also the ritual that players are most exposed to.

David asked eagerly, "So, should I have a molting ceremony?" ”

"No," Ivas denied, "you should exercise.

"The Ascendant Warlock may sound like a class like 'Mage', 'Lawmage', 'Demon Scholar', etc., but it's actually a hand-to-hand combat type class."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Hey? Why? ”

David was a little confused: "Isn't it a 'warlock'?" ”

"Because the Ascendant Warlock has signed a contract with the Celestial Division, it is accurate to say that this is a 'Contract Warlock'."

Ivas explained.

"Ouroboros" is the code name of the son of the snake father, "Ouroboros", and it is also the source of the "Ouroboros" ritual power.

In the background of the game, the birth of this profession is after the fall of Butterfly Tensi, and Huantenji hopes to get some of the fragments of Butterfly Tensi, and makes a trade with the humans who get the fragments.

Huantenji signed a contract with him to teach him how humans shed their skin like snakes.

The person who obtains this fragment becomes the first "Ascendant Warlock".

He was originally an extraordinary person on the Dusk Path, but he decisively abandoned his original body, burrowed into the body of the Butterfly Heavenly Division after his arrival, and used this body to perform a molt. directly became a high-level illusion, and later became an apostle of the Huantian Division - what people call ascension.

"The Ascendant Warlock will constantly perform 'molting rituals' to gradually bring his body closer to its perfect form. But this kind of 'metamorphosis' is not to find a place where no one is shedding and playing by yourself...... Rather, it is to fight a strong enemy.

"Just as the thinking brain grows smarter, and the broken muscles heal again and become strongerβ€”as long as the Ascendant Warlock is wounded in the heat of battle, they become stronger; And if they suffer a big blow, there will be a bigger change; If they die in battle, they will eventually break out of their cocoon and become butterflies and gain new bodies.

"In general, evolution is uncontrollable. Because if you really reach the realm of your dreams, it is no longer transcendence, but perfection - that is the realm of twilight. The evolution of the Ascendant Warlock never stops, as they are always changing...... Often, at least part of them will become like they've defeated their enemies. Through this means, you can steal part of the opponent's natural ability.

"So there is a danger to the Ascendant Warlock, and that is that they may lose their human bodies...... For example, four arms, or three eyes. They may also become giants four or five meters tall, or children and dwarves. But in general, each evolution must be a little stronger in terms of the sum of abilities than before. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Sounds scary. ”

David cringed a little: "This is not human at all......"

But Ivas shook his head: "This is already the gentlest and safest profession on the way to transcendence. ”

Demons transcend their demonic minds and fates, and Ritual Mages use powerful ritual and curse abilities to transcend their fragile bodies entangled in illness and curses.

The demon incarnation transcends the limits of human lifespan and physical bodies; What the Scholars of Mortal Sin transcend is the personal suppression of mortal things by the superior illusions.

And what the Ascendant Warlock surpasses is only his "past self". There is no other will to manipulate the spirit, and there is no curse to poison the flesh. There is no damage to the soul caused by the taboo of heavenly sin, and there is no need to bear the brand of great sin. Aside from the pact with Huantenji that "will not stop molting", there is no influence of any outside will.

In other words, as long as you don't stop your evolution, you won't get out of control.

- The old zerg can be said.

"You just have a good workout. If your soul is still intact at the fourth level, I will teach you how to become an Ascendant Warlock. ”

Ivas made up his mind and planned to start helping people.

Although the Butterfly Tensi has not yet fallen, the transformation ritual can still be completed.

It's just that every time you transform, you need to pray to the Butterfly Celestial Division and the Huantian Division at the same time, and you can't sign a contract and then it's automatic.

So Iwass wasn't worried about what to do if David was leveled up too quickly and Butterfly Tensi hadn't died yet.

Just as the Fallen Heaven Division wasn't pulled down, Ivas could make a card, but the buffet had to be reported every time. These professions were discovered after they were turned into a buffet, but that doesn't mean they couldn't be achieved before.

It was because of David that Ivas figured out one thing.

He didn't need to hide much of the future he knew.

If, before, he was unable to explain where he had acquired this knowledge...... So now with "Arest", he is right in everything he says. It can be said that this is what his other friends told him.

If you don't believe me, you'll confront Aleister head-on.

- She would definitely say "indeed, that's it".

Then the other secrets that Ivas knows that transcend versions of cognition can actually be tried.

For example, help Sherlock get a better advanced class...... A simple mage is too weak.

For example, persuade Old Lady Meg...... Go get a part-time job.

Ivas remembers Meg's death because she was nearing her life and trying to prolong her life through promotion. As a result, for some reason, the news leaked, and he was killed directly in the actor bureau. This was one of the anchors that led to Avalon's demise.

Generally speaking, the easiest way to prolong your life is to work part-time on the twilight path.

As long as you step into the twilight path, you will directly increase your lifespan, and you don't care about the characteristics of the path.

But Meg had a natural aversion to the Twilight Path, so she ruled it out from the beginning.

…… But in retrospect, the profession of "Ascendant Warlock" might have been more suitable for her.

The premise of the transformation ritual cannot be suicide, nor can it be deliberately seeking death. It must be to die against a strong enemy - and the ritual of transformation after death must not be interrupted, otherwise the person will really die. From this point of view, it is safest to die together. And because the current transformation ritual is not fully automatic, you have to make an appointment in advance before each use, so it cannot take effect in case of emergencies......

However, dying at the end of life is predictable and at the same time meets the criteria.

Of course, this is also a kind of "challenging the enemy" - time is one of the most powerful enemies.

According to the principle of the transformation ritual, after the old and dead Meg is resurrected, she can return to her youthful state and gain anti-aging abilities. Even if she doesn't continue to be promoted, she can live for a few more decades if she just plugs in a second-level metamorphosis warlock.

If Meg hadn't died, Avalon might not have been invaded by the Star Antimony...... In other words, even if it is invaded, at least it will not be defeated so badly.

Even with her protection, Her Majesty might have survived without being assassinated.

- From this point of view, helping Meg prolong her life may be a more effective delaying method than purging internal spies.

It was basically impossible to stop her from advancing, that old lady was so stubborn, she would never die of old age in bed. But if she was asked to transcend the path, maybe she would agreeβ€”she and Haina were quite similar. Since Haina has the ability to transcend paths, perhaps she has too.

That's a good idea.

Ivus thought to himself.

And on the other side.

The sculptor Lars Graham looked at Ivas in the newspaper and fell into deep thought.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Aless, is it Chloe? ”

Chloe has defected?
