Watching Gauguin enter the highest level of the flesh and blood pool, Moriarty couldn't help but sigh again at the highly developed and practical nature of Necromantic magic in certain aspects.
It is a pity that the research on life itself by the four arcana elements has always been at a low level, so a similar magical device that can "serve the health of the masses" has never been developed. Otherwise, Brakada might be able to become Antagre
Qida is the real center of civilization in the continent, not just a holy land for mages as it is now.
"I'll take a walk around the headquarters. Someone will let me know when it's ready."
After paying the basic treatment fee and points, Moriarty had no intention of waiting and temporarily left the flesh and blood pool. And because the previous huge rewards and points for "Davidson's Death Care" were already in place, this expenditure was no longer counted.
What.
"Yes, Your Excellency."
The staff watched the high-level mage leave with great respect. Of course, this was also due to the additional tip of two gold pounds.
Returning to the hall of the "Palace of Immortality", Moriarty went to the Magic Information Department, preparing to browse the spell catalog again to find a suitable third-level necromancy spell to be embedded and solidified in the symbol.
As for the style of the emblem, Moriarty didn't have much to choose from. Since it wouldn't be used much in the future, he decided to set it in the shape of a devil's skull with curved horns to match Davidson's origins.
Taking the introduction to necromancy manual, Moriarty looked through it carefully.
A third-level spell, not to mention how crucial it is to him, is also valuable learning material. And because it is a solidifying magic, it can be summoned over and over again, and then its magic structure can be gradually deduced in reverse, and finally it can be mastered by itself.
After careful search, comparison and consideration, Moriarty finally selected the third-level mutated necromancy "Deep Undead Summoning" as the embedded magic.
The third-level mutated necromancy technique "Deep Summoning of the Undead": Based on the "Summoning of the Undead", "Deep Summoning" relies on the more powerful power of death and the necromancy circle to summon the dead and corpses buried deeper underground.
Issue a compulsory summoning order to make it obey the order and step on the ground again to serve the summoner. In this way, the undead warlock no longer has to worry about the lack of "magic materials", because there are endless corpses deep underground for use. There are even some
Contains the dead from ancient times.
To be honest, the biggest reason why Moriarty chose this spell as the badge solidification was because of the "Level 3 Mutation" rating of this magic. It was like a side shot, almost a "Level 4" undead.
technique.
Secondly, "Summoning the Undead" is the signature magic of all necromancers and one of the foundations of the alliance. Moriarty naturally cannot let it go. But the ordinary "Summoning the Undead" is only a second-level spell, which can be used by mid-level or even low-level peaks.
Learning. However, this "Deep Undead Summoning Technique" is a third-level mutation, which is only suitable for high-level spells, matching Moriarty's level.
Therefore, adhering to the principle of "killing the right one without letting go", Moriarty informed Negusta of his choice through the alliance's internal channels. If the other party did not agree with his taking advantage of the loophole, the worst he could do was to choose another one.
But within ten minutes, Negusta's feedback arrived, indicating that everything was fine. Whether it was the badge shape of the devil's skull or the embedded solidification of the "Deep Undead Summoning Technique", the alliance would be satisfied.
For this, Moriarty didn't know what to say other than sincere gratitude.
"Perhaps it would be a good choice to stay in such a wealthy organization..."
Someone who was hit hard by sugar-coated bullets sighed like this.
About five hours later, staff came to inform Gauguin that his treatment had been completed.
Moriarty immediately returned to the pool of flesh and blood, and saw that the Coffin Knight had come out of the pool, and the injury on his broken arm had been completely healed. A new arm had also been formed. At the same time, whether there were injuries left in the Holy Spirit Temple or in his body,
The earlier hidden injuries in the past have also been compensated and recovered.
At this point, Gauguin's strength has returned to the eleventh level.
"Feeling good?" After paying the required five hundred gold pounds and twenty points for the flesh and blood pool fee, Moriarty looked up at the Coffin Knight and nodded with satisfaction.
"Very well, sir."
Gauguin himself was also very excited. He answered in a rare high-pitched voice and knelt down on one knee towards the opponent. For a true warrior, nothing is more important than reducing injuries and restoring strength.
"Well, we can only take this step for the time being. As for the damage to your necroplasm, I also have an idea, but it will take some time to prepare." Moriarty waved his hand and asked the Coffin Knight to stand up.
"yes."
Gauguin was convinced of his master's promise. Once he could repair the necroplasm, the Coffin Knight, who had returned to the top of the high-level, would have the confidence and strength to start attacking the ultimate realm.
"Then, let's go for a walk outside."
The first stage of recovery is complete, and Moriarty also wants to have an in-depth chat with the Coffin Knight about its future path.
"yes."
At this time, it was already dawn outside the "Palace of Immortality", and Moriarty and Gauguin slowly walked down the mountain road.
"When you were in the Temple of the Holy Spirit, your ultimate goal was to inherit the profession of the 'Forgotten Knight'. Did I remember correctly?" After walking in silence for a while, Moriarty suddenly said.
"Yes."
"Well, as you said, the Forgotten Knight can summon the 'Forgotten Realm' to blind the enemy's memory and lose himself. It is indeed scary. But I don't think it is suitable for you."
"Why?"
Hearing such an evaluation, Gauguin couldn't help but be startled. If only the actual combat power was considered, the Forgotten Knight was enough to reach the pinnacle of continental martial arts.
"Did you know that no matter how powerful the martial arts inheritance of the Holy Spirit Temple system is, its roots still lie in the Patriarch of Death and the God of Death who has not shown his face for a long time. In other words, no matter how powerful or terrifying this type of religious profession is, in essence it is
It is just a sword in the hands of the gods and has no self. Therefore, if you are pursuing the pinnacle of martial arts, you must give up such a career that is controlled by others. Otherwise, with a pure warrior heart, it will never be possible to be in a place based on faith.
To find a way out of the system of decisive factors." Moriarty stopped and turned to Gauguin and said slowly.
"...Is this so..." The coffin knight seemed to have never thought like this before, and couldn't help but froze on the spot.
"It's actually very simple." Seeing that Gauguin was confused for a moment, Moriarty added: "If you face your own soul fire, can you swear that you will believe in the God of Death and take God's will as the highest will, even if you sacrifice everything?
No need to say no?"
"…cannot."
The Coffin Knight knew very well that the reason why he joined the Holy Spirit Temple was not out of faith, and his relationship with the death priests was not harmonious. He could be said to be a minority. Therefore, after the mission to capture the Blood Count failed, no one was there for it.
He begged for mercy in front of the "Holy Son" and was severely tortured.
"That's clear. As a simple believer or even a faithless hypocrite, do you think the Holy Spirit Temple will grant you the powerful 'Forgotten Knight' inheritance?" Moriarty smiled slightly and asked.
"No." At this point, Gauguin had fully understood.
"So, even if you are not expelled because of Claudia, you are just wasting your time in the Temple of the Holy Spirit. Unless you are really willing to give up your faith."
"So, what do you think my career path should be?" After a long silence, the coffin knight asked seriously.
"Do you know what's the biggest impression you left on me?" Moriarty asked without answering directly.
"What is it?"
"Death freezing aura and secret attack aura are two ordinary combat skills that can be mastered by almost any undead martial arts class. But with this, you have created a combat system with extraordinary combat power, even with the power of one person
I was really impressed by how many of my elite subordinates were suppressed."
"Thank you for your appreciation."
Gauguin was stunned. He didn't expect that this was what the other party said, and then nodded his thanks. Speaking of which, to get such a comment from a super strong man can be said to be a great compliment to the Coffin Knight.
"I don't think you need to change anything or seek any special military inheritance. Because you are already on the right path!" Moriarty nodded and said loudly to Gauguin, his tone full of affirmation and encouragement.
.
"grown ups…"
"To a large extent, extreme violence is the most terrifying thing. And your past performance has exactly confirmed this. Even aside from the field, your performance in Sosk that day was no worse than some level 13
The most powerful person in the world." Moriarty added.
"...So, what about the domain? It's just direct violence, but it will still be greatly restricted when facing the enemy's domain, because the power of the domain has rules and priorities." After thinking about it, Gauguin asked again.
"Ultimate violence can also be a field, otherwise how can you reach the extreme? Or, is it conceivable that your field does not need to be so huge and complicated, it can be concentrated on your blade. With one slash, all other fields will be destroyed!"
"With one strike, all its domains will be destroyed?!" When he heard these words, the coffin knight was immediately shocked, and the soul fire in his eyes jumped and burned fiercely: "Is this really possible?"
"certainly."
Moriarty nodded affirmatively.
Judging from the laws of the world and magical logic, there can be no permanent fortress that cannot be broken down in the planes, and there is no immortal body in the absolute sense. As long as the power is sufficient and the method is correct, everything can be broken.
"Then how can we do it? Continue the proficiency of death freezing air and secret attack halo?" Gauguin asked urgently.
"Okay, but it's not enough." Moriarty nodded and shook his head.
"What do you mean?" The Coffin Knight was confused.
"If it's just on the material side, the freezing air of death can cut through iron and mud in the wind, coupled with the mature aura of hidden attack, it can already cut through the strongest armor. But if it's on the energy, rules and domain level, this kind of power is not enough.
"
"What is your suggestion, sir?" Gauguin couldn't help but take a step forward and asked.
"I suggest that in addition to the death freeze aura and the dark attack aura, you need to have a deeper understanding and mastery of 'negative energy', and ultimately use it as the core of the extreme. Only in this way can it be possible to achieve what I just said'
With one slash of the sword, all its territory will be destroyed."
"Negative energy? Why negative energy? What kind of martial arts inheritance is this?" Hearing the other party's words, the Coffin Knight was puzzled for a moment.
"Among the planes, there are three forces with the most powerful destructive power. One is the force of darkness, which represents destruction; the other is the power of death, which represents decay; and the third is negative energy, which represents the destruction of the world.
The end. For you, the dark force is difficult to obtain; the source of the power of death is controlled by the God of Death and is unreliable; so only negative energy is your best choice." Moriarty said slowly: "Of course.
Negative energy is unfamiliar to most non-professional undead professionals, and it is not easy to understand and master it. Moreover, no one has ever walked this road, and there is no ready-made military profession to pass on. Therefore, you must be aware."
"I see…"
Finally, Gauguin fully understood what his master meant.
It has to be said that although Moriarty's design is unheard of and may even seem ridiculous, upon closer inspection it turns out that it is closely linked to each other and closely matches the characteristics and actual situation of the Coffin Knight. It can be said that it is extremely thoughtful.
. Moreover, although negative energy is unfamiliar to Gauguin, undead creatures still have incomparable advantages in this field compared to other continental life forms. Moreover, there is a master who is proficient in magic and powerful, so Gauguin does not need to
Worry that there is no way to study.
"Sir, I am willing to follow your advice and walk on this unprecedented path." Thoughts flashed through his mind, and the coffin knight put his arm around his chest and solemnly promised.
"Well. I will rent a laboratory with a 'negative energy generating device' in the alliance and leave some information. You can try to feel and experience the existence of pure negative energy first. However, don't overdo it at the beginning.
And you must be very careful, otherwise even if you are an undead, you will be completely destroyed by the excessive radiation of negative energy." Moriarty nodded and said directly.
"yes."
Gauguin had no objections to this arrangement. Moreover, all expenses were borne by Moriarty, just like the best boss.
"Let's go."
After talking about the business, Moriarty returned directly to the "Palace of Immortality" with the Coffin Knight, and immediately rented a suitable laboratory and gave it to Gauguin to use. Even, in addition to debugging the negative energy device and some basic theoretical research,
In addition to the explanation, Moriarty also specially summoned the negative energy field to cover the coffin knight to give it an intuitive feeling.
Afterwards, Gauguin was left alone to start cultivating in the laboratory, and Moriarty turned around and left, heading for the "Bottomless Fountain".
"Lord Davidson, is the matter done?"
Mrs. Dorothy was not surprised to see Moriarty appear. In fact, she had calculated well, and the other party only disappeared for two or three days.
"Everything is fine." Moriarty smiled and nodded. Of course, he would not explain to the beautiful necromancer in front of him what earth-shattering changes had happened during this period, but he just said: "I want to apply to participate in the 'Dead Man'
Is it possible to decipher Wuyan's work?"
After hearing these words, Dorothy's originally smiling face suddenly froze. (To be continued)
