Suriel went directly to Morgan, so this must be a fierce battle.
Matthew knew it too.
If Margaret, who was pregnant with Suriel's patron saint, died suddenly, someone of the same level must have intervened.
The black goat just now was the first to bear the brunt of Suriel's wrath.
The real person behind Margaret's death.
Only Morgan!
Just think of this.
Matthew did not dare to be careless. He quickly reviewed the incantations on the scroll, and then used Margaret's body as a medium to summon her soul.
Matthew is very familiar with this process.
After all, it’s a professional counterpart.
But in the process of summoning spirits.
Matthew's inner mood inevitably dropped -
When Suriel just informed him of Margaret's death.
Matthew was only slightly sad.
But he never thought it was a big deal.
Because in his impression.
Resurrection is widespread in this world.
Although discussions about resurrection are not common in the alliance.
But Suril is a divine mage.
Wouldn't it be easy to resurrect a student?
Matthew really thinks so.
Until just now.
Suriel told him personally that even after the resurrection, Margaret was no longer the same person as before.
At that moment Matthew suddenly woke up.
Only then did I feel a strong, absurd, and unreal sense of pain!
And this feeling of sadness was infinitely amplified when I witnessed the scene of the black goat eating.
Matthew has always prided himself on being strong-willed.
But when conjuring the soul of Margaret.
He was in a rare state of extreme depression.
That real feeling about death echoed in his heart for a long time.
This feeling is not just because of Margaret's martyrdom.
It was also because of the sudden sudden death of the black goat.
This devil monarch named Consonia probably also knows the consequences of killing Margaret.
After Suriel appeared.
She was eating extremely hungrily from beginning to end.
She would rather satisfy her appetites before dying than put up any resistance to Suriel's murderous intention.
It can be seen that she also knows.
He will undoubtedly die.
But so what?
The scene where the Black Goat eats like crazy before dying just adds a bit of absurdity to the final battle between Suriel and Morgan.
This scene seems to have become a microcosm of the world.
The appearance of the world of Irondor is absurd.
The undertone of absurdity is cruelty.
Living in this absurd and cruel world, all life is struggling.
In comparison, I am already lucky enough.
At least the legendary way is by his side.
You don’t have to chase your goals like Margaret did.
But that's why.
The environment that was too smooth made it difficult for Matthew to truly appreciate the cruel undertones beneath the absurdity.
It's hard to taste the pain of death.
Until this moment.
His soul seemed to be struck by lightning.
In the dark.
He saw gates hanging alone in the starry sky.
Even if it's just for a moment.
But it also allowed Matthew to vaguely see the path beyond the realm of the undead.
"Those who have not experienced death will certainly not be able to master death, let alone transcend it."
Matthew's breathing gradually became rapid:
"Perhaps I can rely on the system and my own talent in the field to have an unimpeded journey all the way to the legend. But whether it's life or death, it's a harsh field that requires personal experience before you can enter it."
"This is a lesson that cannot be skipped. Even if you try it after the legend, it may be too late..."
Perhaps, this is the crux of why I can always master small fields but cannot enter big fields!
In a daze of thoughts.
The effects of the spiritualism continue.
A few minutes later.
A flash of white light appeared in Matthew's field of vision.
From a distance, it looks like a rabbit.
When Matthew looked closely, he realized that this rabbit was surprisingly big.
It is almost the size of a person, covering a faint spirit body like a protective shield.
Matthew knows.
This rabbit is Suriel's patron saint.
The patron saint carried the spirit body and stumbled to fly in front of Matthew, and then quickly disappeared.
The next second.
The originally confused spirit suddenly opened its eyes, and she regained consciousness.
Margaret looked at Matthew with surprise and joy:
"Matthew? Why are you? Why are you here?"
"I remember, didn't I already..."
Speaking of which.
Margaret stopped suddenly.
She looked down at herself and her voice became lower:
"Am I already dead?"
Immediately her tone became urgent again:
"Can you resurrect me?"
"I still want to fight him again. In fact, I'm just a little short. I didn't calculate well. He also has an escape ability. As long as I kill him, I can recover at least 1/3 of my status.
That way I will have enough energy to kill all the remaining people!"
"I've obviously stepped into the legend, but I don't know why a force pushed me down..."
"Am I too greedy? But that is the goal I have been pursuing."
"I'm really unwilling to give in. I really want to fight him again..."
When saying these words.
Margaret's eyes were focused on the legendary devil outside the protective barrier from beginning to end.
It was the last remaining of the four legendary demons that besieged Margaret.
Do not know why.
Although Suriel killed the black goat Consonya.
But this guy was the only one left.
Matthew was about to say something.
The legendary devil took a deep look at Margaret, and then ran away without looking back!
"look!"
"He was scared away by me!"
Margaret put her hands on her hips contentedly:
"He was defeated by me!"
Matthew had a forced smile on his face.
Margaret also gradually became depressed:
"But I'm really dead, right?"
Matthew said softly:
"We can resurrect you, and Ms. Suriel will do it herself. You don't have to worry too much."
However, Margaret shook her head.
She trimmed her hair with rare tenderness - but while doing this, she realized that it was pointless to trim her hair in the spirit body.
So she smiled bitterly and said:
"To die is to die."
"I will definitely be incomplete after resurrection. As far as I know, no matter what resurrection spell is used, I will lose something."
"I don't have many things on me to begin with. If I throw away some more, wouldn't I become a useless person?"
"What's more, the resurrection spell will make me become another person to some extent. I don't want this to happen."
Matthew quickly comforted and said:
"As long as you can survive, there is hope."
Margaret said flatly:
"But that's another Margaret's hope, and it has nothing to do with me now, doesn't it?"
"Frankly speaking, I would rather disappear than have another specious Margaret appear in this world. I don't want to see her covering up the traces of me in this world bit by bit. You can understand me."
What do you mean, Matthew?"
"I have reached my limit, I have died on the battlefield as I wished, and I have seen the scenery above the legend. All this is enough for me."
"So, send me to the underworld."
Matthew was silent.
He suddenly asked:
"Why does Resurrection lose part of itself?"
Margaret thought for a while:
"Okay, let me teach you one more lesson before going to the underworld."
"The essence of resurrection is to repair or reshape, but there is no extremely refined mold in this world, so repair and reshape in any sense cannot achieve 100% restoration, and this is especially true in the realm of soul and life.
.”
"The soul is the extremely sublimated self, and the body is the body, but it is also the most important container."
"The reason why perfect resurrection cannot be achieved is that you can't find a container that is 100% consistent with my body at the time of death - you should understand that neither the wishing technique nor the cloning technique can do this.
One thing, if the containers copied by these spells have a similarity of 80% to 95%, it would be very good."
"These deviations will cause the container itself to distort, constrain and temper the incoming soul."
"The process of the soul blending into a new container is the process of losing oneself."
"If my soul can be as powerful as the gods, then I may not lose myself. This is why most gods are not afraid of being back-bitten by the container when they come - their souls have been sublimated to another level.
One level.”
"But even so, there are some examples of overturning in the history of the coming of gods. The gods will still fail. With the strength of my soul, I will definitely be tortured by the new body and become mentally exhausted."
"Actually, there is another method of resurrection that can greatly preserve the self. That is to preserve the spirituality of my corpse when I just died, and then forcibly resurrect the body."
"It's a pity that you also saw my corpse. Not only was it beyond recognition, but there was not even a trace of spirituality left in her body. You are a necromancer and you should know very well that you can't even turn this kind of corpse into an undead person.
, she no longer has the possibility of resurrecting me..."
Margaret was narrating as if teaching Matthew a lesson as usual.
It's different from usual.
This time she explained it in detail.
She pointed out many easily overlooked areas.
The content of the story ranges from the lowest level of cloning to the alliance's more mature surrogacy spells and higher-end creation spells.
It's a pity either way.
Neither of them can 100% retain her will and soul.
therefore.
Her attitude is also quite firm.
If you can't live back to yourself.
Then it's better to just leave.
Margaret's determination gave Matthew a headache.
It's not just because Suriel gave the order.
He himself was unwilling to watch Margaret go to the underworld.
If only Margaret could keep herself.
It's not like Matthew can't consider becoming her cheap father.
Unfortunately.
The tumor in my stomach is a container full of variables.
The reason why Suriel made a request to Matthew.
It's out of concern for the students.
She might want to see how far a super-talented Margaret can grow.
However, this does not essentially change the shortcomings of resurrection.
Margaret became Matthew's daughter.
It couldn't be the Margaret in front of her.
This also goes against her own will.
Matthew was filled with emotions.
The woman in front of me was still as stubborn as ever.
It seems that I can't convince the other party no matter what.
"Send me to the underworld, Matthew."
After Margaret recounted everything she knew about resurrection, a look of exhaustion appeared on her face:
"You should be careful in the future. This world is very dangerous, and many murderous intentions are hidden under those seemingly funny appearances. Whether they are gods, demons, demons, or other outer creatures, they may look like
Some are absurd and even funny, but don’t ignore their cruel and bloodthirsty nature.”
"You will experience many battles in the future. Before each battle, you must tell yourself, never underestimate the enemy..."
Having said this.
She closed her eyes as if she had finished her last words.
But Matthew still refused to give up.
He looked directly at Margaret and suddenly shouted:
"What about the millions of gold coins you owe Ms. Suriel?"
Margaret's spirit body suddenly trembled.
She opened her eyes and smiled miserably:
"I, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it in this life..."
Matthew said aggressively:
"Isn't it enough if you can't even say one sentence?"
"Is this your attitude?"
"Don't you realize that if you die like this, you will become Ms. Suriel's worst investment?"
"You know Fei Capital's path better than me, right? How much impact will the failure of the investment have on Ms. Suriel's path? Can you go there with such peace of mind?"
Even if it becomes a spirit body.
Margaret's face also became very pale:
"I, I... Do I still have to pay the debt even if I'm dead?"
Matthew cursed fiercely:
"If people don't have to pay debts after they die, then why do they need the undead?"
"You have enjoyed Ms. Suriel's investment and gained opportunities and platforms that others do not have. Can it be erased by a light death?"
"Ms. Suriel has now started a duel with Morgan, one of the Lords of the Nine Hells, for you. If this cannot restore your mind, then we can only say that she has indeed misjudged you, and she deserves the investment failure!"
Margaret, who had always been strong, was scolded by Matthew's words and looked like she was about to cry.
She stammered and said in confusion:
"Then I, then I... won't go to the underworld yet."
"I have to apologize to the teacher first."
Matthew took the opportunity to open the blue bottle:
"Come in!"
Margaret hesitated.
Finally, he sighed and flew in obediently.
Matthew quickly plugged the mouth of the bottle with a cork. After doing this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He can feel it.
The liquid in the bottle is nourishing Margaret's soul and repairing her damage to the greatest extent.
The next second.
Margaret's faint voice came from the bottle:
"But Matthew, do you really want to see a specious Margaret appear in your life?"
Matthew took a deep breath.
He said in a deep voice:
"Don't worry, I respect all your wishes."
"You don't have to worry that I will forcefully resurrect you. Speaking of which, I have also experienced some bizarre things. After your explanation of the resurrection technique just now, I already have some immature ideas in my mind."
"You can rest peacefully."
Margaret's questioning voice came from the bottle:
"How immature?"
Matthew smiled slightly:
"I will lay out a rough framework when I get back, and then verify the feasibility. I will have the answer soon."
There was silence in the bottle for a long time.
Finally, Margaret's soft voice came:
"Thank you, Matthew."
Matthew's mood improved slightly.
He strode toward the portal with the bottle in hand.
But after taking a few steps, he stopped.
Now Matthew leaned against the portal and faced the square again.
Pale hands!
Claws of Astra!
Matthew drew his bow left and right.
on the data column.
…
"Hint: You captured the body of the little devil*1!
You captured the body of the Fly Demon*3!
You captured the body of the elite ant demon..."
…
After a full 10 minutes.
After fishing for a large number of devil corpses, Matthew left Wujian Island with satisfaction.
After returning to the main material world.
Matthew first went to Isabel's laboratory.
A large number of knowledge points came in handy at this moment.
He redeemed almost all the magic research and theoretical knowledge related to resurrection in one go.
It even includes some taboo material.
After that, he hurried back to the cemetery and began to study the disadvantages of resurrection.
Three days later.
Matthew rubbed the dark circles under his eyes and yawned.
After these three days of endless sleeplessness.
He basically understood the technical difficulties in achieving the "perfect resurrection technique".
As Margaret said.
The most common and cheapest resurrection spell in the alliance is the clone spell.
Through pre-made clones.
Come and reserve a relatively suitable container for your own resurrection from the dead.
But the quality of clones is mostly poor.
People who are resurrected through this method may not only change their temperament, their strength will drop drastically, but their life span will also become shorter.
Therefore, only a very small number of intermediate mages may consider this life-saving method.
And after resurrection, he will basically be in a semi-retired state.
The mid-term surrogacy process is actually somewhat similar to Matthew's current situation.
It is to create an embryo through magic, inject the soul into it, and then transplant it into a woman's uterus for surrogacy.
This method of resurrection has a long cycle.
Moreover, if an adult's soul has been in the state of an infant for a long time, its soul essence will be subject to certain wear and tear, and it is also possible to lose a small part of itself.
The advantage of this method is that you will have greater potential after reincarnation.
As for more advanced creation techniques.
It is the content of the realm of gods.
It is true that priests or warlocks are better at this aspect.
Take a look at the entire alliance database.
It only records that the former natural disaster mage mastered the art of true creation and could perfectly reshape people's bodies.
Even Isabel seems to have only mastered the lowest level of creation skills.
Matthew guessed.
This may have something to do with authority.
Although mages are powerful, they usually only get involved in the field and never ask for authority.
The gods are different.
They usually fight to the death for authority.
Maybe this is the fundamental reason why they have greater strength than mages in creating things!
"I will not consider the art of creation for the time being. It must be a very high-level authority. It is impossible for me to try to obtain it."
"Surrogacy is actually a very good idea. The reason why you lose yourself with this method is that on the one hand, the body created by alien reproduction cannot perfectly match the soul, and on the other hand, the long infancy and early childhood period will also wear away the quality of the mature soul.
…”
"The latter is okay. If the quality of the mage's soul is high enough and can withstand loneliness, theoretically the impact can be controlled to a minimum. The most important thing is the difficulty of alien reproduction."
"In comparison, cloning is just serious self-reproduction, so there is no problem in terms of fitness, but there are extensive defects in quality."
"So, can we combine the two methods?"
Matthew's eyes flashed with intense interest.
If at first he just wanted to save Margaret's life as much as possible.
So now he finds that his research on resurrection is gradually deepening into the intersection of life and death!
This happens to be his legendary way!
Matthew thought for half an hour.
The wonderful ideas in my mind began to gradually improve.
Then he pulled out a blank piece of manuscript paper and began to write quickly——
…
"Margaret's Reincarnation Plan:
The first step is to enter the earth realm, obtain the authority of life, and extract the evil queen's embryo from my body.
At this point I will briefly obtain a relatively pure embryo.
The second step is to share the "breeding machine", the ability from the Evil Queen, to Margaret's body through the field of reproduction and breeding.
And took this opportunity to try to transplant pure embryos into Margaret's body.
The third step is to use Suriel's power to reincarnate Margaret into an embryo and erase the evil queen's mark as much as possible.
The fourth step is to let Margaret’s body give birth to Margaret herself!”
…
"I can give birth to myself."
"Then Margaret can also give birth to Margaret."
"The Evil Queen's field of tricks can make corpses pregnant, which inadvertently solved a huge practical problem!"
"That makes sense!"
Matthew couldn't help but slap his thigh hard for his fantastic idea.
So awesome!
Such a wild and unconstrained idea is indeed unprecedented in the history of the league.
Through this method.
It not only retains the advantages of surrogacy, but also avoids the defects caused by allogeneic reproduction.
Margaret will retain her character, memory and will to the greatest extent!
Except that the evil queen mark in the embryo may be a variable.
This plan has a very high feasibility.
Since Suriel made such an invitation in front of Matthew, it means that the Mark of the Evil Queen is nothing to her!
"Go further."
"As long as the evil queen's mark can be successfully erased, the embryos born in this way will have different properties!"
"It's like saying that I will become Margaret's father, and Margaret is her own mother. I have nothing to do with the Evil Queen Barbassa!"
Matthew's eyes sparkled.
This is totally a win-win plan!
Margaret will be reborn while maintaining herself, and her future prospects are limitless. Considering her debts, she may become the strongest worker!
Suriel recovered a failed investment and regained a favorite student, so he would naturally feel better.
Matthew himself will most likely directly understand the realms of life and death during this ceremony.
He even had a premonition that he could gain some power!
At the same time, he got rid of the evil queen's tumor and avoided physical damage. The only loss may be the rare value of the tumor.
But this is nothing compared to the fee promised by Suriel and the maxed-out favorability between the master and the apprentice.
"But in terms of practical implementation, there seem to be some problems."
After the joy.
Matthew calmed down and thought about the specific details.
throughout the plan.
The next three steps can almost certainly be completed.
Only the first step is an obstacle.
"As long as I can separate the embryos, I have a chance to take control of life."
"But only if I have the power over life, can it be possible for the embryo to be extracted without damage..."
Matthew couldn't help but bared his teeth.
Encountered a strange cycle.
It is indeed possible for him to control the authority in the field with the Crown of the Earth.
But the realm of the earth is so vast.
It is possible that what you get is not the authority of your professional counterpart.
That would be a bit embarrassing.
Considering that the Earth Crown gem requires at least 18 days of synchronization time.
And Margaret's body couldn't last that long even after countless enchantments.
The longer it goes on.
The probability of success of the plan is lower.
Therefore, Matthew must find a way to break the situation as soon as possible!
Only three days have passed.
Suriel was still fighting fiercely with Morgan, and Matthew glanced at the news about Purgatory.
have to.
Wujianzhiyu was all destroyed by Suriel.
The entire Morgan Purgatory experienced violent volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and tsunamis due to this battle.
It seems that Suriel is really angry this time.
"But as a divine mage, you should be able to keep your wits about you and get back in time, right?"
Matthew thought secretly.
In order to solve the problem of the first step.
He finally decided to visit the Timeless Isle in person.
in the field of reproduction.
Dudley and Hussman are professionals.
Huang Yulong is also an expert at watching the excitement.
Maybe they can also provide constructive suggestions for themselves.
Just do it if you think of it.
Matthew tidied up a little and was ready to set off.
But at this moment.
Rhaegar suddenly came to the cemetery.
He rushed to Matthew.
He asked loudly with concern on his face:
"Matthew? I heard you are pregnant?"
"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing!?"
Matthew quickly dragged him to the corner of the workshop.
With an embarrassed look on his face, he whispered:
"Take it easy!"
Rhaegar said dissatisfied:
"If you don't even tell me this kind of thing, do you still consider me a friend?"
Matthew sighed softly:
"The main reason is that it happened suddenly and is a bit embarrassing, and I don't want you to worry..."
Unexpectedly, Lei Jia didn't buy it at all.
He crossed his arms and snorted coldly:
"I think it's because you are now more developed and you are in contact with all the mages in the alliance, so you look down on us, right?"
Matthew denied it repeatedly.
But in fact, subconsciously, he really didn't feel that Rhaegar could help.
Of course, embarrassment is the more important reason.
Seeing that Matthew's attitude was quite sincere.
Rega's expression softened slightly.
He turned to comfort and said:
"It doesn't matter. When I was young, I saw more evil encounters than you -
There was a male devil who was viciously cursed by his ex-wife after a divorce, and accidentally became pregnant with octuplets.
As a result, all eight children were born elites.
He didn't do anything himself, and he became a devil lord with the help of the children!
Don’t you know that his ex-wife’s intestines are so regretful that she’s green..."
Rhaegar rambled on for a long time about the bizarre encounters he had seen.
Matthew could only cooperate and smile awkwardly but politely.
The end.
Lei Jiacai still had more to say:
"Let's get back to business, do you want to arrange for a priest to see you?"
Matthew instinctively wanted to refuse.
But he soon reacted:
"Priest?"
"Where did the priest come from?"
Aren’t pastors extinct these days?
Warlocks are the orthodoxy of the gods!
Just as he was wondering.
Rhaegar said quickly:
"Have you forgotten what I told you before?"
"When we returned from purgatory last time, weren't Asuma and Dulin exchanged for certain organs by Luticia?"
"At that time, I said I was going to Watcher's Heights to ask a reclusive priest to come over and help them take a look, but the priest came very slowly. She just arrived in Rolling Stone a few days ago.
But her methods were very superb, and it only took two minutes to solve Asma and Du Lin's unspeakable secret."
"Asma and Du Lin have now successfully exchanged their marriages, and their married life is going well."
"what do you think?"
Matthew said decisively:
"Take me to see the priest."
20 minutes later.
In an empty room at the official hotel in Rolling Stone Town.
Matthew and Rhaegar stood side by side.
A thin figure sat on the granite floor.
It was a woman with shaved hair and eyebrows, wearing a fiery red priest's robe.
Her appearance is ordinary, even a little ugly.
She had shackles on her hands and feet.
My face is covered with dark yellow spots and fine lines.
Only his eyes are extremely clear.
After listening to Rhaegar and Matthew's narration.
The bald woman shook her head gently:
"I reject."
"It goes against the teachings I follow to impregnate the dead."
