Chapter 1256 Leaving the mouth, and then to the astral world
Generally speaking, only the person involved knows about such a secret thing as possessing the Holy Deed of Resurrection, and others can only infer it through the resurrection event.
Just like this time, before Cliff was resurrected, no one knew that he had the Holy Covenant of Resurrection. In addition, Cliff believed in the Lord of Radiance, so whether he was willing to use the Holy Covenant of Resurrection was also a question.
Before today, most people had never considered this possibility.
As for why Said knew it, it came from another party involved in the Resurrection Holy Contract - Death Priest Morton!
The relationship between his president Jenna and Byron is almost that of a master and apprentice, and Byron and Morton have a good personal relationship. Morton will indeed not take the initiative to disclose the information about the purchaser of the Holy Covenant of Resurrection, but "telling" it is not a leak.
no way.
Especially since Morton, as an undead creature, mostly communicates with people through his heart and mind, so the communication involves even more information.
Seid only accidentally learned of this news during a private meeting with the Grand Arcanist, but he did not dare to tell this kind of news, or even mention it to Jenna.
It was only after the Seven Towers announced the investigation results of Cliff's death that he informed Jenna belatedly and formulated a strategy to acquire the gold coin exchange certificates of the Tower of Glory.
It was also because this incident happened too suddenly and the Seven Towers moved too quickly. If Said knew about Cliff's death at the first time, he would definitely notify the president as soon as possible, which might prevent many farces from happening.
Already.
Of course, all this must be decided by the president. Based on Said's own thoughts, he is more inclined to seek higher interests through this.
…
After continuing to listen to the reports of several stewards, Said suddenly felt a little boring and planned to end the report. At this moment, a steward hurriedly came to report:
"My lord, Lord Harlan, the Archmage Charles Harlan, is outside. He requests to meet with your lord."
"Hmm? Lord Harlan?"
Said frowned. He really couldn't remember any interaction between himself and Lord Harlan. He was even a little unfamiliar with the name Harlan Lord.
Although the Clearwater Chamber of Commerce is huge, it is not so big that it has branches in every territory in Netheril.
Mingshui Chamber of Commerce will not go to some territories that obviously have no business atmosphere and commercial value, or territories where there are serious differences or disputes with the Chamber of Commerce.
In Said's impression, Harlan Territory does not seem to have much of a commercial atmosphere. Such territory is a secondary development target in the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce's planning.
Now Lord Harlan suddenly came to the door, and for a while Said really couldn't guess the other party's purpose.
However, it is not the Chamber of Commerce's concept of hospitality to turn away a Nese lord and an archmage, and the report would be a bit boring. Said quickly ordered:
"Hello, I'll be there soon!"
"yes."
…
Not mentioning how Lord Harlan came into contact with the Brightwater Chamber of Commerce, it was said that Cliff returned to the territory after explaining the resurrection from the dead to the Seven Towers and the Austrian Federation in Severton.
Cliff had no heirs, and after losing him as the only lord, a series of chaos inevitably occurred in the territory. After returning from Severington, he immediately set out to reorganize and organize the territory.
But at the same time, it seemed that he was aware of the weakness of the territorial order, and perhaps to avoid such a situation in the future, Cliff chose an heir——
His student, Mars, who was born as a civilian, behaved calmly in this incident, almost uniting all the forces belonging to the Tower of Glory, and did not cause too serious consequences.
Based on this alone, Cliff believed that Mars was qualified to be his heir.
Of course, if everyone in the Tower of Glory recommended another person at that time, the successor Cliff would choose now would also change accordingly.
Of course there are reasons for this including ability and attitude, but luck also plays a large part.
…
Four days later, the fifth day of June.
At noon that day, Shado finally received Cliff's notice. Before heading to Giles Tower, he ordered Derrick to send nine demon-slaying arrows to the Harlan Chamber of Commerce.
Of course, he also knew that maybe when he returned from the Star Boundary, Derrick might not be able to reach the Haran Chamber of Commerce, but he did deliver the goods before going to the Star Boundary in accordance with the latest agreement with Lord Haran.
Giles Tower.
Coming here again, Sha Duo felt a lot of emotion in his heart. Unexpectedly, after experiencing a death, Cliff chose to go to the star realm through Giles Tower this time.
However, Cliff also had an explanation for this, saying that the summoning circle of the Eternal Holy Spirit Thorne is in Giles Tower. If the three of them want to go to the star realm together, they can only pass through Giles Tower.
Soon, Sha Duo came to the projection hall on the plane exploration layer. Here he saw Thorne and Cliff. Cliff was smiling and seemed to be in a good mood, while Thorne was as unapproachable as before.
The cold look.
Seeing Xia Duo come in, Thorne immediately said: "The people are here, let's go!"
"Lord Chateau, is there anything else that needs to be prepared?" Cliff asked.
"No more, everything is ready, let's go!"
…
The projection process was almost exactly the same as the last time, and this time Xia Duo, who was prepared, clearly saw the process of the creation of the ectoplasmic projection incarnation from scratch.
Projecting part of the essence of the ontology into the astral world can form a substantial body in itself, but the astral projection incarnation also introduces certain astral qualities, forming a special "protective shell" that is integrated with the ontology projection.
As long as there is no special damage related to the soul or mind, even if you die, your consciousness will automatically return to the original body and you will not suffer any harm.
After all, there are only a few cases where the body is involved in the death of the incarnation, as Cliff did.
According to Thorne, in the nearly three hundred years of Giles Tower's history of exploring the astral realm, there have been only six incidents involving the death of the projection, including Cliff this time.
Before Thorne became the Eternal Holy Spirit, he was the astral mage of Giles Tower. His words have high credibility. Now as the Eternal Holy Spirit, he has no reason to lie.
In addition, the ectoplasmic projection incarnation is a technology developed by Giles Tower after Thorn achieved the Eternal Holy Spirit. In fact, the only ectoplasmic projection incarnation whose death implicated the original body was Cliff.
No one else has ever encountered anything like this.
Not only that, Cliff also mentioned that the ectoplasmic projection incarnation can not only exist in the star realm, but also exist in the material plane.
In other words, the Giles Tower already has the projection incarnation that Shado has longed for, which can be used to travel instead of the real body, and at the same time can cast spells normally and use magic items!
After learning about this situation, Xia Duo didn't know whether to be happy, sad, or both.
Happily, this matter has finally come to light, but sadly, Skoum will definitely not let him get this technology easily!
