Chapter 46: The Solidification of Spells
Early the next morning, Adam met David, who handed him a letter in an envelope containing a list of names that told him that everyone on it would do his bidding.
The list also intimately marked what kind of relationship these people have with Matt, and whether Matt trusts them.
Adam looked down at a list and there was no Macallan on it.
It is clear that this coachman was abandoned.
When Adam got up, he met with Doug, but he didn't say much.
After a few polite words, Adam left, and the driver who delivered it to Adam was still The Macallan.
He kept his head down, didn't look at Adam's face, leaned against the carriage, whip in hand, listened to the horse's breathing, and he was sure he could hear the end of his life.
Adam got into the carriage, and this time he didn't pull down the curtains, but left it open, and spoke to The Macallan.
"I complimented you to Mr. Doug. Adam did what he said, albeit with a few more words after the praise.
"Thank you, Mr. Adam, thank you, Mr. Adam. McCarron hurriedly thanked him, his voice full of indescribable surprise, and he sat on the waist pole in front of him, and straightened up again.
"No, I may have to trouble you to pick me up during this time. Adam smiled and said, "But it's okay to always borrow the Roma's carriage, and I may buy one later." ”
Then he jokingly said, "How about inviting The Macallan to be my chauffeur?"
"Mr. Adam!" McCarron's voice suddenly rose a little, then calmed down and said, "My family has been a coachman for the Roma family for generations, and it has been and will be. ”
"Really?" said Adam, "but I'm afraid you'll have to follow me for some time, and I've had some cooperation with Mr. Doug, and you should be the one who picks me up until I hire a new coachman." ”
"It's... Good. The Macallan was inexplicably flustered, and then stopped talking.
The journey to the central clock tower is not long, and it will be there quickly.
"It's the same as yesterday, come and pick me up at four or five o'clock in the afternoon. Adam said, pulling out the gold coin, turning and entering the Reflection Tower, ignoring The Macallan.
In the dimly lit corridor, Adam didn't see Celine this time, and went straight to the tenth floor, where he found Anthony already waiting.
His complexion is not bad, but his expression is not good.
"Teacher, did anyone come to the tower last night?" Adam knew very well that with Anthony's strength, even if he was only in the Reflection Tower, he could observe the outside world.
It's just that for unknown reasons, Anthony rarely does this.
"Well, you know?" Anthony didn't look very good, but he wasn't angry at Adam.
"Recently, a nobleman has been pestering Mr. Alva, and it seems that he can't get what he wants from Mr. Alva, and he has come to me these days. Adam told Doug about everything, and even said that he had received the benefits.
"Even the carriage I came in these days was given by Mr. Doug. ”
As he came into contact with these powerful professionals, Adam discovered that it was useless to lie and hide with these people.
The entry of most professionals starts with perception, and perception is related to all aspects of professionals, so the first transcendent attribute that most professionals acquire is mostly transcendent perception.
The more powerful the professional, the stronger the perception, as long as you dare to lie, they will be able to see through it.
"Is that so?" Anthony didn't see through, but looked at Adam, "You're actually curious, aren't you?" ”
"Indeed, the student is very curious about what the aristocracy could not ask for. "Alva sent him here, and he must have informed Anthony of some of his situation, and in that case, it would be better to show it generously.
"What he's after isn't a good thing. Anthony said with a little reminiscence: "Alva was very similar to you at the beginning, always wanted to prove something, always wanted to change something, and it didn't change since I was a child. ”
"When I was a child, it was good that I was small, but when I was older, I couldn't suppress it anymore, and the grade in my forties was not small, perhaps as the aristocracy became more and more powerful, and there were more and more nobles among the young people in the church, Alva began to think about one thing, that is, why monks must follow birth, old age, sickness and death. ”
"So that year we finally got the elixir. Anthony looked Adam in the eye and said, "I have also caused a great accident and committed irreparable sins." ”
"The side effects of the elixir are too great, they are greater than other longevity methods, if you don't change your bloodline to get longevity, if you want too much, the more you pay. ”
"Maybe it was because the price was so great enough for Alva to regret it enough that he began to reflect on himself and began to hate his past self, and probably because of that, he sent you to me. ”
"As for the elixir, there was only one copy of that thing at the beginning, and Alva would not refine the second one, I'm afraid he would rather die than let the thing spread out again, and if there is no thing, the next time you see that nobleman, let him not pursue it. ”
Anthony's words made Adam stunned, and the message contained in it was a bit big.
If it is true, as Anthony said, that there is only one elixir, then he himself did not take the elixir to maintain longevity, then where did Ai's 'elixir' come from?
Or is Anthony wrong about Alva, and this guy has picked up the ambitions of the year again?
Thinking about the information he got from Doug, Adam didn't think much about it, because Anthony's lecture began.
There are a lot of things that a sorcerer has to learn together, meditation method, advanced meditation method, and this meditation method is not just practiced with the head covered.
"People's palm prints are different, and their souls are also different, so the same meditation method, cultivation has to change accordingly. ”
"No one can trust another person to observe his own soul, and it is not easy to observe it because of the physical barrier. ”
"So these changes can only be adjusted by themselves. ”
"This requires knowledge, the way of the magician, which is to understand, to understand oneself, to understand nature. ”
"The soul is too ethereal, and if you want to understand the soul deeply, you need to rely on the medium, and the medium is the spiritual power. ”
The nature of mental forces, the inner control, the meaning of structure, the structure corresponding to the various forces of nature, etc., all need to be learned.
Only by understanding these can we successfully perform a spell, and with the spell, we can construct the sadhana, and with the sadhana, we can enter the return stage, and we can understand our own soul more deeply.
"In the beginning, there was no such thing as magic, and at that time it was called a ritual. "Ritual is a specific way of behaving that communicates with nature," says Anthony. ”
"Rituals don't have to be performed by sorcerers, monks, knights, and even ordinary people, as long as they meet the conditions and perform rituals, can perform miracles through rituals. ”
"It's just that most of the ceremonies are complicated, and it takes about ten minutes to hold a ceremony, and the long timekeeping unit has to be counted as years. ”
"With the rise of sorcerers, some people studied why rituals can attract the power of nature, first imitating and simplifying with spiritual power, and then they studied and understood the reason, and began to build miracles themselves, and the magic was completely detached. ”
"You're making rapid progress, and the Underworld has reached a certain scale, and it's already ready for the semi-solidification of spells. ”
The meditation method is to use spiritual power to maintain its own spiritual power operation mode, and the so-called semi-solidification is to alienate a part of the spiritual power through special means, and then forge it into a model, embedded in this spiritual power operation mode, and directly turn a spell into a talent ability.
"Nowadays, many spells pursue lethality, but the definition of spells should be tools, tools used to explore souls, and you can go to the bookshelf and choose a magic model to use for semi-solidification. Anthony said, "Then go and find the West...... Then I'll go and get you the resource stuff ready. ”
The ultimate pursuit of the sorcerer is the mystery of the soul, the magic is a tool to explore the soul, this tool is not enough to explore, then create a stronger spell, the spell can only be cast once, then develop a semi-solidified technology, a single spell is not enough, then the chain spell, not enough, then set the master forging ritual, forge the medium of spiritual power to the strongest state, and then explore the soul.
Individual sadhanas are different, some succeed and some fail, and even if they succeed in exploring, they get different things, and successful people have passed the stage of return and come to the stage of ascension.
Those who don't succeed have their own way of living.
Anthony, who has always made the way forward clear for Adam, only let Adam pick it himself this time after giving a hint.
