Chapter 179: Sea Dragon
Jia Yi was a little strange, and when Terry was far away, he asked Husley on the side in a low voice, "Is Master Terry's level very poor, why are no students willing to listen to his class?"
Xiusley also lowered his voice and said: "No, because Master Terry's specialization direction is not the same as others, he specializes in necromancy, you know, people outside are not very friendly to necromantic spells, they always feel that they are dealing with corpses, and they look gloomy and evil, so there are not many people who are willing to learn necromantic spells, and most of the people who go to his classes are to understand necromantic spells and make it easier to deal with them." ”
"It's actually the Necromantic Department, isn't it forbidden by the Academy?" Jia Yi was a little curious, most of the spells of the Necromantic Department didn't look very serious, and the Academy also allowed public teaching.
"Don't be prejudiced against the necromancy like fools. Orlando, who was walking in front, spoke, "It is undeniable that the necromantic spells were indeed rather eerie at the beginning, but apart from their appearance, there is no essential difference between the other spells. Isn't there a difference between burning someone with a fireball and killing someone with a curse?"
McCray also said: "Modern magic has been developed for hundreds of years, and many people's concepts have not changed, and the wizarding world used to be more repulsive to the necromantic system, because the necromantic system manipulated the soul and desecrated the dead corpse, which disgusted the rest of the mages. But now necromancers are no longer like that, and the corpses used are all donated or purchased voluntarily, which can only be regarded as dedication to magical research. Moreover, necromantic spells allow people to have a fuller understanding of humans or other creatures, rather than through speculation, and their contribution to healing and mage physique enhancement is incomparable to that of other factions of mages, and pharmacy has benefited a lot from it. ”
"What are you looking at me for?" Moore couldn't help but jump to his feet when he saw McRae staring at him as he spoke, "I don't have any prejudice against the necromancy, I'm just making a joke, it's these students who are biased. ”
Jia Yi and Xiu Sili were a little embarrassed when they heard this, Jia Yi was influenced by his previous life, and most of the time the necromancer system was a villain, which made Jia Yi unconsciously prejudiced, and most of the spells of the necromantic system were not beautiful, either corpses, or toxins, and most of them were accompanied by a foul smell, which really looked easy to misunderstand.
Now that McCree and the others say, the necromancy here is now somewhat like a medical enlightenment on Earth. At that time, in order to study the human body, most of the researchers stole corpses for autopsy, and most of them were in churches. If someone finds out, it's hard not to have bad associations.
However, this is not all prejudice, there is really magic in this world, and the study of corpses is not entirely for the purpose of exploring the mysteries of magic, there are really a lot of vicious spells that have been developed through corpses, especially some soul spells, which are weird and difficult to imitate.
However, most of these spells are now forbidden, not because of any reason that desecrates the soul or corpse, but because most of these yin damage spells that act on the soul will in turn erode the mage itself and distort the mage's own values. Even if you have the will of others, if you are not careful, you will be blackened. Only a powerful and well-willed mage can not be affected.
The legendary mages of the necromantic system have been trying to change this situation, but they have not improved at all, and only invented some talismans that have little effect, whether they are useful or not depends entirely on luck.
For the study of the soul, although many mages have made a lot of efforts, but the effect is not ideal, for the composition of the soul, the mechanism of action, whether it can be completely independent of the body, whether the ghost and the person before the death are still the same person can not come to a clear conclusion. The current mage believes that although the gods have the ability to lead souls into the kingdom of God, their knowledge of the soul is not much better than that of mages, and even inferior to mages in many aspects.
Although the Church often portrays omnipotence when it preaches the gods, the gods are still far, far from omnipotent.
Husley didn't want to discuss the necromancy anymore, and he didn't major in this anyway, so he asked Orlando, "Teacher, why did you come back so late this time, and did you encounter any danger?"
He seemed to ask Orlando again where he was dissatisfied, and he said with some hatred: "I don't know who it is, I lost a sea dragon in the lake, there are no natural enemies, it has grown so big, a body of scale armor is almost invulnerable, and the strength is infinite, I don't know what madness, ran over and attacked our ship, for a while, I couldn't get it down, I could only confront, so I had to ask the academy for help, who knew that they came so slowly, if they came a little later, I could solve it alone." ”
"You braggadocio, it's really not a big draft, if we hadn't arrived in time, you would have exhausted yourself to be used as a snack by that sea dragon. Moore debunked him.
Orlando retorted: "If it weren't for the protection of the people on the boat, I wouldn't have trapped it with a rune circle and fought hard with it, if I let me know who put it in the lake, I must make him look good." ”
McRae shook his head and said, "You really are, wouldn't it be nice to beat it up and drive it away, why do you have to trap and kill it, otherwise you would have come back a long time ago." And if you come back with Master Queenie, how can such a little snake be your opponent. ”
Jia Yi seemed to hear a familiar name, he turned his head to look at his teacher, and when he saw his face, he wisely did not ask.
"The powerful demonic beasts in the lake have all been killed or driven away, this thing has no scruples in the lake, if it continues to be raised, the ghost knows what it will become, and what if it goes crazy in the future, what if it attacks the academy. ”
Then, Orlando muttered in a low voice: "Besides, if I chase it, it will leave, and it will hide under the boat and want to carry out a sneak attack, not only holding grudges but also shrewd, how can it stay." ”
It didn't seem that he didn't want to fight the sea dragon and come back to gather helpers to kill it again, but the other party was unwilling, and he didn't know what kind of entanglement happened to make the other party miss Orlando until he lost his life.
However, Jia Yi became more and more puzzled, what was the sea dragon, and he couldn't help but ask: "Teacher, what is the sea dragon? Why must someone have thrown it into the lake, not by himself?"
Seeing Jia Yi looking at him with some curiosity, even Xiusli seemed to be a little interested, Orlando said: "Xiusley, you and your junior brother talk about what a sea dragon is. ”
"The sea dragon is not really a dragon, it generally refers to a huge sea serpent, and in the sea, some sea snakes can grow to be very large and very fierce, and when the sailors see it, they call these huge sea snakes sea dragons or sea monsters," said Hughley. ”
Probably because the sea monster is not as majestic as the sea dragon, the sailors are very good at bragging, saying that meeting a sea monster is not as good as meeting a dragon, and later, most people called the huge sea snake a sea dragon. However, this is the treatment that only the sea snake in the sea has, the snake on land is what it is, and it generally can't grow to the size of the sea snake in the sea, it can really grow to that big, even if it is not worse than the real dragon, so it doesn't need to be called a dragon to set off itself.
After Husley had finished explaining, McRae continued: "Although the sea dragon grows in the sea, it does not only grow in the sea, but it can also grow in fresh water and land, but neither of these places is as good as the sea. Although Lake Taberina is connected to the sea by the River Isuvi, there is never a sea snake that swims thousands of miles along the river to Lake Taberina, it can only be brought by someone. It is likely that it was a small snake when it was brought, but it slowly grew up and could not be raised, so it was thrown into the lake. ”
"If I know who it is, I have to make him look good. Orlando said again that it looks like it's really going to be a loss this time, not as easy as it seems.
