Chapter 183 The anchor point that changes the future
Ascension Warlocks and Sin Scholars are both bequests from Tiansi.
The fallen Tiansi brought new powers to people, and by further developing these powers, we discovered those professions that already existed in this world but were hidden because no one discovered them.
"If you want to change your profession and become a metamorphosis warlock, you must learn to 'slough'."
"molt?"
When David heard this scary word, he hesitated: "Does it mean peeling off one's own skin and growing it back again?"
"...It's not."
Aiwass couldn't help but laugh out loud: "That was the 'molting ceremony', just like an insect transforming into a cocoon and transforming into a butterfly. Throwing away your old body and getting a more beautiful body."
"This is the power of Dietiansi on the path of beauty... He can enlighten ugly things and reshape their bodies. There is a ritual that borrows the power of Dietiansi, which allows people to change their appearance."
In the words of players, it is "washing one's face" - which means reshaping one's face.
Regardless of race, gender, age, body shape, appearance... except for the "origin" selected when creating a character, all other parts can be changed.
This is also the ritual that players are most exposed to.
David asked eagerly: "So, should I have a molting ceremony?"
"No," Aiwass denied, "you should exercise.
"Ascension Warlock sounds like a profession such as a 'mage', a 'lawyer', or a 'demon scholar', but in fact it is a close combat type of profession."
"...Huh? Why?"
David was a little confused: "Isn't it a 'warlock'?"
"Because the Ascension Warlock signed a contract with Huantian Si, it can be accurately said that he is a 'Contract Warlock'."
Aiwass explained.
"Huan Tiansi" is the code name of the snake father's son [Ouroboros], and is also the source of the power of the "Ouroboros Ring" ritual.
In the background of the game, this profession was born after the death of Dietiansi. Huantiansi hoped to obtain some of the fragments of Dietiansi, and made a deal with the humans who obtained the fragments.
Huan Tiansi signed a contract with him and taught him how humans shed their skin like a snake.
The person who obtains this fragment becomes the first "Ascension Warlock".
He was originally an extraordinary person on the Dusk Path. He decisively abandoned his original body, got into the body of Die Tiansi after his arrival, and then used this body to shed his skin. He became a high-level phantom demon in one step.
He became the apostle of Huantiansi - what people call Shengshen.
"The Metamorphosis Warlock will continue to hold 'sloughing rituals' to gradually bring his body closer to the perfect form. But this kind of 'transmutation' does not mean finding a place where no one is around to molt and play... but fighting against powerful enemies.
.
"Just as a thinking brain gradually becomes smarter, a broken muscle becomes stronger when it heals again - as long as the transmutation warlocks are injured in fierce battles, they will become stronger; and if they suffer heavy injuries, they will become stronger.
There are bigger changes; if they die in battle, they will eventually emerge from their cocoon and become a butterfly and get a new body.
"Generally speaking, evolution is uncontrollable. Because if you truly reach the realm you have dreamed of for a long time, it will no longer be transcendence, but perfection - that is the realm of twilight. The evolution of a metamorphosis warlock will never be the same.
will stop, because they are always changing... Generally speaking, at least part of them will become like defeating their own enemies. In this way, they can steal part of the opponent's natural abilities.
"So there is a danger for the metamorphosis warlock, that is, he may lose his human body...for example, grow four arms, or three eyes. He may also become a giant four or five meters tall, or become a child.
and dwarves. But in general, each evolution must be stronger than the previous one in terms of total ability."
"…sounds a little scary."
David flinched: "This is not human at all..."
But Aiwass shook his head: "This is already the gentlest and safest profession on the road beyond."
What the devil transcends is his own thoughts and destiny controlled by the devil. The curse mage uses powerful rituals and curse abilities to transcend his fragile body entangled with diseases and curses.
What the demon incarnation transcends is the human lifespan and the limitations of the material body; what the mortal sin scholar transcends is the suppression of the personality of mortal objects by superior phantoms.
What the Ascension Warlock transcends is just his "past self". There is no other will to control the spirit, and there is no curse to poison the body. There is no taboo of evil to damage the soul, and there is no need to bear the mark of great sin. In addition to being with
Apart from Huan Tiansi's contract of "not stopping shedding", there is no influence of any external will.
In other words, as long as you don't stop your own evolution, you will never lose control.
——You can say that you are an old Zerg.
"You should train your body well. If your soul is still intact when you reach the fourth level, I will teach you how to become an ascension warlock."
Aiwass made up his mind and planned to start cheating people.
Although Dietiansi has not yet fallen, the transformation ceremony can still be completed.
It's just that each time you transform, you need to pray to Die Tiansi and Huan Tiansi for strength at the same time, and you can't sign a contract and it will be fully automatic.
Therefore, Aiwass is not worried about what David will do if he upgrades too quickly and Dietiansi is not dead yet.
Just like the Fallen Heaven Division has not been pulled down, Aiwass can also make major sin cards - it's just that the buffet has become a report every time. These professions were discovered after they became a buffet, but
It doesn't mean they couldn't achieve it before.
It was precisely because of David that Aiwass figured out one thing.
He doesn't need to hide much about the future he knows.
If it was because he couldn't explain where he got this knowledge before... then now that he has "Aleister", he is right no matter what he says. It can be said that this is what his other friends told him.
of.
If you don't believe it, just confront Aleister face to face.
——She will definitely say "Indeed, that's it."
Then you can actually try to do the other secrets that Aiwass knows that transcend version cognition.
For example, help Sherlock get a better advanced profession... A simple mage is too weak.
For example, persuade old Mrs. Meg... to get a part-time job.
Aiwass remembered that Meg's death was because her life span was approaching, and she tried to extend her life through promotion. However, the news was leaked for some reason, and she was killed directly in the casting bureau. This was one of the anchor points that led to the demise of Avalon.
Generally speaking, the easiest way to extend your life is to work part-time on the Dusk Path.
As long as you step onto the Dusk Path, your lifespan will be directly increased, regardless of the characteristics of the path.
But Meg had a natural aversion to walking at dusk, so she ruled out this possibility from the beginning.
...But looking back and thinking about it, the profession of "Ascension Warlock" might be more suitable for her.
The premise of the transformation ritual cannot be suicide, nor can it be deliberately seeking death. It must be death by challenging a powerful enemy - and the transformation ritual after death cannot be interrupted, otherwise the person will really die. From this perspective, dying together
It is the safest. And because the current transformation ritual is not fully automatic, you must make an appointment in advance before each use, so it will not take effect in the event of an emergency...
However, death at the end of life is predictable and meets the standards.
This is of course also a kind of "challenging a powerful enemy" - time is one of the most powerful enemies.
According to the principle of the transformation ritual, Meg, who died of old age, can return to her youthful state after being resurrected, and gain the ability to resist aging. Even if she does not continue to advance, she can still live longer if she only plugs in a second-level transformation warlock.
decades.
If Meg hadn't died, Avalon might not have been invaded by Star Antimony...or, even if it was invaded, at least it wouldn't have been so miserably defeated.
Even with her protection, Her Majesty the Queen might be able to survive and not be assassinated.
——From this perspective, helping Meg extend her life may be a more effective delaying method than purging internal spies.
It is basically impossible to prevent her from advancing. The old lady is too stubborn. She will never die in bed. But if she is allowed to transcend the path, maybe she will agree - she and Ha
Ina's personality is quite similar. Since Haina has the adaptability to transcend the path, maybe she also has it.
This is a good idea.
Aiwass thought.
And on the other side.
Sculptor Lars Graham looked at Aiwass in the newspaper, lost in thought.
