402 Subjected
Why Sazastan was always able to find himself, and why did Penny always have a feeling of confusion when he thought about the chief of the undead.
The sense of disobedience that had been looming in his heart since Murmmaster was finally relieved, and this answer really made the wizard feel extremely frightened, and this fear caused him to become out of shape, this gaffe was the worst in his life when he came into contact with the study of magic, and the usual calmness and stability were far dispelled by that fear far away to the other plane.
Any wizard who knows that he has been unknowingly controlled by someone, and that he doesn't even have a methodology that is entirely his own, will probably find it difficult to keep his cool.
The wizard subconsciously stroked the hidden pattern on his forehead, remembering the old man's chatter when he first got this tattoo, and when he knew that it was the nominal supreme leader of the Red Robe Mage Society, he also got his first impression of Sazastan:
An arrogant and egoistic fellow, even with great contempt for the gods.
As he pondered the scene as he moved his mind, Penny's expression gradually calmed down, and he was no longer as out of shape as he had been a moment ago.
Because he realized that his situation was a little different from what Ye Fa'an said, if he was really cast such a spell by Sazastan, then it was impossible for him to actively doubt and be jealous of him.
So...... Penny opened the scroll again and carefully began to read the spell again, not noticing anything, but his mind kept steady.
Sensing that the wizard in front of him had calmed down from his gaffe in such a short time, Ye Fa'an nodded: "Hey, it turns out that the nerves of cowards are not as fragile as glass." ”
Shaking his head, after reading the scroll repeatedly, Penny made up his mind: "...... I can be sure that I am not under the control of Lord Sazastan, Lord Yefaan. ”
"Not bad, not bad. Ye Fa'an's smile was full of appreciation: "You're right, you are indeed not under his control, but ......"
"But what?" Ye Fa'an's pause was naturally waiting for Penny's questioning, and he had no reason not to cooperate with this.
"He did cast this spell on you. Ye Fa'an blinked, as if he admired the stunned hidden under the wizard's calm expression: "It's just while the spell is in effect...... It seems that something has gone wrong and it has not completely controlled your methodology. ”
A little bit of a problem?
Penny's eyelids jumped, and he immediately became completely stunned:
As his methodology took shape and began to grow steadily, the tattoo on his head was replaced by the undead in the tomb of Imasca.
The spell's effect is halted.
It was a stroke of great luck.
Somehow, a wave of happiness rose in Penny's heart, which was probably the luckiest thing that had ever happened to him in his life.
He decided that all business was over, and when he returned to the West Gate, he would make good repairs to the temple of Temorrah.
After settling down and solving this problem, the conversation still needs to continue, for this conversation and Lord Yefaan himself in front of him, Penny has too many questions in his heart: "Lord Yefaan, now it seems that although Lord Sazastan has not succeeded in turning me into a puppet of his will through this spell, it has obviously had a certain impact on me......"
This is the most obvious thing, the most direct manifestation of which is that wherever Penny is hiding, Sazastan can find him.
The seed, though not able to thrive in his methodology and completely control his will, undoubtedly left a mark on him to be subject to Sazastan.
Thinking of this, Penny's face turned pale, and he was sure that Sazastan already had some understanding of his methodology—at least some of the flaws and weaknesses of his methodology, and there were few things worse for a wizard than being subject to methodology.
For example, the three chiefs such as Neveron, such as the Night Lord of the Dragon Coast...... This time it was his turn.
He took a deep breath: "Allow me to ask curiously, Lord Yefaan, what is the purpose of your coming to me? Do you want me to fight against Lord Sazastan? This cannot be ......"
Penny shook his head: "If I confront him head-on, the chance of failure is as high as one hundred percent, and with all due respect, you told me that these are also extremely reckless moves, how can you be sure that Lord Sazastan's spells are not fully effective against me? If I am still under Lord Sazastan's control...... Then all the words you have said to me, it is very likely that you will end up against you. ”
Impatience makes Penny desperate to know more information, and it is clear that this matter has begun to become closely related to his life from simple revenge.
What does Sazastan want to do?
Why did Sazastan use spells to control him? Three years ago, he had no fists and no bravery, and he was just a small character in Serge, maybe a little outstanding, but it was nothing compared to the high-ranking chief mage, and it didn't have any special value—there were not a few young people who were favored by the gods every day every year in Faeron, and ninety-nine percent of such lucky people could hardly get rid of the end buried in the dust of history, why did Sazastan think that Penny was worthy of attention? You must know that in Faerun, the traverser is not a rare variety, and there may be fewer traversers from the demonless world, but it is not a rare thing that is seen once in 10,000 years.
This legendary spell seems simple, but Penny knows that it takes a lot of effort to prepare such a tattoo, although it is slightly inferior to the psionics, but the arcanist is also a group of people who are extremely sensitive to psychic power, this kind of spell that has a huge impact on the spirit, even if it is a legendary mage, it must be carefully carved, such a tattoo, does Sazastan think that Penny will give him a corresponding return?
Maybe he was right, but the Chief Necronomicon had gone to great lengths to do all this for the purpose of what it was, well, that's the point: why did he fake his death, what did he really want to do? Perhaps, the question that Penny was most anxious to know right now was what kind of man Sazastan was.
Only by understanding what kind of person Sazastan really is can he start thinking about what to do next.
"I don't know what he's trying to do. Yefaan shook his head unexpectedly: "But for your question, you can rest assured, for two hundred years, I have been monitoring Sazastan, which even he doesn't know, in Serre, I may be the one who knows him best, I can be sure that you are not under his control, frankly I have been spying on you for a while, although you were not very taken seriously by me before you fled from Ser, but after the escape, let me know that you were not affected by that spell- That spell will make you lose yourself subtly, and the surname will gradually become similar to the caster, Sazastan is not a guy who messes around with flowers, and the meaning of his wife and family is a fart to him. ”
The girl with a quiet and delicate appearance and a smiling face suddenly burst out with a foul language, which made Penny look sideways, and seeing that Ye Fa'an still looked as usual, Penny even wondered if he had heard it wrong.
The last word reverberated with an elusive emotion that made Penny feel a long aftertaste.
"But you see, he's an unfathomable fellow, and he's especially good at using all sorts of coincidences to enforce his own will, or to test the will of others. Ye Fa'an's tone gradually became heavy, and he suddenly shook his head with a smile: "Little friend Sean, I want to say that he chose you on a whim, no matter how your seed grows, he will guide you to make your existence beneficial to him, but now it seems that you are out of his control, and he seems to have become more interested in you, perhaps, now you are more useful to him." ”
Penny was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "So what exactly does he want to do?"
This is the Nth time he has asked this question.
He can only ask such questions.
"I don't know, even though I've been watching, I can't see his every move. But I can tell you that Sazastan is an extremely intelligent man. ”
Penny noticed that when talking about Sazastan's 'wisdom', Yefaan's face showed a thoughtful look of reminiscence: "For wizards, gifted" Intelligence' determines the efficiency of learning spells, but acquired wisdom completely determines how far a wizard can go, in the apprenticeship of Sazastan, the intelligence is not particularly outstanding, but the discipline is terrifying: in his apprenticeship, every morning when he gets up, he will spend a quarter of a minute of the time meditating, not preparing spells, but recording the plan of action for the day in the spell book, and meticulously implementing it, do you know how long he has been doing this habit? As far as I can see, it's been seven years.
You know this, you know that he is destined to become a human being, and what is even more terrifying is that he lives such a self-disciplined life, but he is usually kind and natural when he gets along with people, and he doesn't feel his rigidity at all. ”
Ye Fa settled down for a moment: "And the action schedule he sets for himself every day, he has never made a mistake, no matter whether there is an accident on this day, he will talk about the completion of the action plan - because in his plan, he clearly records how to deal with if there is some kind of accident, and what accidents will occur every day, he will prepare in advance." ”
Her audience had solemn expressions.
Wisdom is the ability to observe the world and control oneself, Sazastan's self-discipline shows that his ability to control oneself is at its peak, and the ability to anticipate and plan shows that he can clearly see his future and prepare for it, which shows that his ability to observe things is also otherworldly.
With this level of wisdom, Penny seemed to imagine that when Sazastan acted, he had an eye, looking condescendingly at everything in the world—his own eyes.
Proud, cold and shrewd.
The disguised smile on his face transforms into a hideous gum of bare teeth on the skull's head.
Penny shuddered.
"Wisdom is a very wonderful thing," Ye Fa'an yawned: "Without wisdom, people are fools, and a little higher wisdom will lead people to obtain something and become successful people in this world, and if the wisdom is higher, people will begin to think crankily and become philosophers who don't know how much value they have to the world, I don't know what the limit of wisdom is, but I think you also know that if a person knows too much and thinks too much, what will he become......"
"Maniac. Penny blurted out.
Penny is no stranger to this feeling, many mages often feel a sense of collapse to the point of madness when studying spells and thinking about the theory of the composition of the world, and it is not uncommon for many wizards to become insane as a result.
"So prophecy is the most boring spell. The head of the prophecy department showed a lack of interest on his face, and inadvertently digressed from the topic: "It's not that I have to, I rarely use this kind of thing, well, having said all that, little friend, I just want to tell you that Sazastan is a wise madman, although he doesn't seem crazy at all." I couldn't predict what he was trying to do, but I had a vague sense that his plan was unprecedentedly crazy, Duxusrim had died suddenly a few days ago, and with Neveron's ability to kill this cunning little fat man, I suspected that Sazastan had done it. ”
"What? Mistress Ream is dead?" Penny was dumbfounded, he didn't know the news yet.
