Hilbert did not feel any resentment towards Root's decision.
He is actually a very sober person who only likes to lie to himself occasionally.
Therefore, he knew that he was not qualified to resent others for not taking Gilbert too seriously.
To put it even worse, it was impossible for Gilbert himself to complain about this.
In this world, there could be someone who was willing to save his life despite all kinds of calculations. Gilbert had no one to blame but to accept his fate.
No, he can only complain that his strength is not enough, so that he can only become the pawn crossing the river on the chessboard... Although these chess pieces have been cast with preservation spells, they will not break if they are eaten, but they can only be left alone.
Just stare at other people's scenery in the base camp.
Anyway, Gilbert can see these things now in the River Styx, and he will weigh how to deal with the future relationship with the Tower of Black Mystery, especially Root.
By doing this, Root and the others would be very good for Hilbert, no, I should say, for Russell in the future.
Harmony and warmth based on interests are always easier to deal with than real feelings and righteousness.
If most of the good intentions of the Black Mystery Tower towards the Heinalson family are based on the word 'use', Russell's independent life will be much easier in the future.
There is a big difference between limited help and having to give your best effort.
As for Hilbert himself, there is no need to react to this matter... He has always had the feeling that Root is a very contradictory person.
Root's feelings for Oliva, Aisling, and even Gilbert were all real. As long as it had nothing to do with his so-called 'big plan', he was truly tender and affectionate and willing to tolerate all the little things of students like them.
Problem.
But when he needs to put the lives and deaths of these beloved disciples into his plan, he will never fail to take action.
However, Root is obviously someone who even considers his own life and death.
He doesn't want to die, but he's not afraid of death. If he has to, he will even die like the people in the Defense Tower, taking most of the people with him.
The mages in this world are probably because their souls have been calculated to the point where they have nowhere to go, so they do things in a cunning way, making a desperate move that Hill can't understand.
Of course, it may also be because they know that it is equally impossible to escape from this world.
Between being completely depraved or losing their souls...it's not too difficult to understand why these fierce-tempered archmages choose to die together with their enemies.
Hilbert sometimes thought about it, and if it were him, he would probably do the same thing.
Of course he still has to live if he can, but if it really comes to the moment when he has to make a choice, he would rather die than let himself become a devil.
Therefore, even if he discovered Root's behavior of using Gilbert Heinalson as a pawn as a tentative communication with Dreyfus, he would just laugh it off without comment.
But this also allowed Hill to confirm his suspicion: Nicholson was hiding very deep.
Yes, Lute is the one who calls the shots between them, but the one who points the direction is most likely this look-alike but very unqualified prophecy mage.
He should be one of those people Aislin mentioned occasionally who shouldn't be trusted.
Hilbert actually knows a little about the method that the prophecy mage uses to distinguish the difference between reality and the glimpsed future... which is to cut out a part of his soul and place it in a magical place that is powerful enough to allow him to maintain a calm mind.
Things.
Moreover, when he may be wandering in the river of destiny and unable to find his way home, this strange object can also guide him back to his homeland.
Prophecy mages are also the ones who like to leave descendants the most...the connection of blood can allow their souls who always run away from home to find their own home.
Nicholson is probably the type who does both. Hill, I originally thought he was just the second type.
Being separated from one's own soul for a long period of time can turn a prophetic mage into a true lunatic.
But just by keeping this powerful strange object that contains a part of his soul, the prophecy mage will only become more and more indifferent... On the contrary, they like it. After all, only by being indifferent to the outside world can they see more clearly.
Destiny will not be misled by those emotions to make wrong judgments.
So in many fairy tales in fantasy worlds, if there is an old wizard who looks crazy but is actually very cold and seems to know everything, someone will steal his crystal ball.
Once this thing is lost, he or she will become crazy, even crazy to the point of self-destruction.
This type of story is basically born out of the prophecy mage...if they lose the magical object that hides their soul, they will self-destruct sooner or later.
The reason why Nicholson doesn't look so obvious is because he didn't want to attract attention from the Tower of Thea, so even if he cut off part of his soul, the strange object hiding this part of the soul should still be hidden in his body.
Spiritual sea.
It is estimated that only when he needs to make some more important predictions, Nicholson will take out this strange object as a compass in an absolutely safe environment.
The devils cannot understand what the prophecy mage is doing.
It's not like Hill, whose inheritance can span almost the entire history of the multiverse... He can't even figure out now whether the knowledge related to the prophecy mage comes from Corellon or another party.
Most people only know that in order to make their predictions more accurate, the prophecy mage will collect part of his soul.
As for why, few people know.
Devils are very sensitive to souls, but they don't know the reason that only divination mages know.
Therefore, at most they can feel that prophecy mages are basically a little soulless... This is also one of the most basic ways to judge professional prophecy mages.
Even if their souls are not cut off, the result of long-term communication with the river of destiny will also result in the loss of their souls.
On the contrary, after cutting off a part of the soul and having a certain traction on the main plane, their phenomenon of soul loss will disappear.
Destiny is never something that mortals can easily pry into, and a sufficient price must be paid.
The ending of the prophecy mage is basically going crazy.
The longer you live, the more crazy you become.
Hill really didn't expect that Nicholson would be so cruel to him... After all, he really didn't know those specific prophecy spells that specifically communicated with the river of destiny.
There is no way to hide this.
People who are entangled with fate will have the so-called mysterious light lingering around them.
Every time I figure out the inside story of this world, Hill can't help but feel a little happy.
A mage lives a hard life, which may be his character and destiny.
All mages are struggling to live like this, even if they are already the top figures in the world. This only proves that this world is inherently cruel.
Although Trasil had been miserable in the past, at least he had not reached the point where even struggling was like a silkworm chrysalis... The result of not struggling would be to be scalded to death, but the result of struggling would be to glow and be hot all day long.
, and then died in an instant.
Therefore, even if Hill discovered those secrets, he chose to immerse them in his heart.
He felt that he was not qualified to condemn anyone for anyone who was kept in the dark.
At least, it is their struggle from ancient times to the present that has allowed the world to wait for this day of hope.
Being able to hide what he has done as the tower owner of a magic tower so deeply... Hill can imagine how many people would have lost their lives before this because they could not hide it.
They have stepped on the blood of their predecessors step by step and accompanied their own tears to get to where they are today.
Hill may not like it, but he is not qualified to make irresponsible remarks about it.
He is more willing to choose the story he wants to see than the heavy past.
For example, let these tiny mosquitoes land on the hem of the robe of a young wizard who went to communicate with the correspondent of the Nicholson family.
His mosquitoes have no offensive power, and there are only two magic circles on their small bodies... The smallest one is an environmental adaptation magic circle, which allows these bugs to blend in with the outside environment.
This refers not only to the color background and the like, but also to the spell aura.
Another slightly larger magic circle is the magic circle for spying and collecting information.
Hill made this thing a bit like Bluetooth.
Therefore, although the mosquito following this mage is relatively small, there are also some larger flies following it.
The information collected by the mosquito will be directly transmitted to the fly 3 kilometers away.
The fly's head is the memory and retractor, and its body is the transfer station.
Hill thought about it and realized that the total number of mosquitoes and flies in his hand was several thousand.
There are also some large insects that can maintain signal transmission at 10 kilometers.
In addition, it was relatively far away from that group of people, and he was responsible for leading these bugs to track the flying birds... Although the defense tower was relatively far away, it should be enough for him to see the big show in the Tower of Sea.
He didn't do this before, of course because he was worried about being exposed.
But now, what else does Hill have to fear?
Even if Asmodeus saw him, at this juncture, he would pretend that he didn't see him.
