"Witches in the Middle Ages are actually different concepts from the magicians and wizards we often hear about. Simply put, witches have their own system."
Chris took out a cigarette and continued: "When I just left England, I went to Germany to stay for a few months, and then I met several friends there, including one who was already
A witch who has lived for hundreds of years, which means that this witch has escaped the witch trial; in her opinion, compared with magicians and other similar professions, the biggest feature of witches is that they have gender restrictions, because witches have a set of
Unique spells, and these spells can only be learned by women. From a scientific point of view, these spells come with genetic testing effects, and only those who have passed the genetic testing can use these spells."
"In my opinion, the witch profession is actually quite similar to a stitch monster, because it combines magicians, alchemists and druids, and some factions even have the characteristics of necromancers. In short, the witch profession has
The best people in the world are all-rounders and can exert their abilities in different situations, but they are still too many but not perfect. When talking about a certain aspect alone, they look average. As for why there were witch trials back then, it was mainly because
The number of witches expanded rapidly at that time, which aroused the attention and worry of ordinary people. After all, people are always afraid of things they don't recognize, especially if this thing looks similar to themselves."
"As a result, during the first round of witch trials, many witches chose to resist, which made the matter even bigger. And I just said that witches are a special profession that know everything, so these
The ways in which witches resisted were also diverse, which made ordinary people even more panicked. Therefore, subsequent witch trials gradually became out of control and ordinary people were also implicated; but as long as witches did not show various special
ability, then witches are no different from ordinary people, so in the end many witches survived and passed on to this day."
As soon as Chris finished speaking, Taketori continued: "As for the appearance of witches, I remember that it was related to an ancient god named Hera. This ancient god lived somewhere in Europa at that time, and compiled a book when he had nothing to do.
The so-called secret code of witches was passed on to ordinary women nearby. The contents recorded in this secret code were transferred by Hera from magicians and other professions, so it seemed a bit of a hodgepodge, and Hera herself did not take it seriously.
Study or study the contents of the witches' secret book, so some of the spells in it are tantamount to very evil from your human point of view."
"Ah, let's put it this way, the emergence of the witch profession was an accident? The ancient god Hera really cares about killing but not burying." Liu Xing said with some sigh.
Zhutori nodded, and said a little strangely: "Logically speaking, an ancient god like Hera who founded a sect and created a new profession will generally receive worship from this profession, and thus gain a certain degree of
The special power - the power of faith. Although this power is better than nothing to the ancient gods, it can still have miraculous effects at certain times, because the power of faith from different professions can achieve different effects.
, and the effect of powerful professions such as mages is not necessarily more powerful than that of ordinary professions such as chefs, but it is still a good trump card."
"But Hera didn't pay much attention to the witches at all. After that, she basically didn't ask about the situation of the witches. Later, she left the earth directly. Therefore, the witch profession can be said to have always been leaderless, so the main attack directions were different.
There are many factions. These factions all think that they are the orthodox witches, so there are many conflicts between witches. In short, witches are a profession that is always in chaos, and they are all based on individuals in terms of inheritance.
Lord, although there are still many witches today, they have gradually lost the characteristic of witches blooming and have become specialized in one thing."
Having said this, Taketori sighed again, "Judging from the layout of the room just now, that witch should specialize in alchemy and druid herbalism, that is, a witch who specializes in making medicine, and she
The medicine she makes is also based on magic potions. For example, the chewing tobacco used to control the bodyguards and the chief's family was probably made by her herself. As for why she came to Earthsea, I think she wanted to improve herself.
Ability, because there are also many wizards here in Earthsea who have inherited it, and the reason why witches are called witches is because there are many overlaps in the abilities of witches and wizards."
"That's true. The wizards here in South America are indeed quite powerful. I almost fell into the hands of a wizard before." Chris said with lingering fear: "I didn't pay attention to the wizard at the time, but I didn't expect the result.
This wizard's ability is so weird that I couldn't guard it at first, but in the end, fortunately, I figured out what his ability was and was able to turn defeat into victory."
At this moment, the convoy had returned to the airport.
After thanking Norton and others, Ryuzaki said goodbye to Liu Xing and others and prepared to return to America. However, before doing so, Ryuzaki did not forget to tell his current address and contact information.
"Dunwich? It's not far from our Miskatonic University." Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and said.
Ryuzaki nodded and said with a smile: "We are all in the same state, so the distance must not be far, and my family is considered a well-known family in Dunwich and has bought a lot of things near the suburbs of the city.
Farm, so no matter which direction you come to Dunwich from, I can pick you up as soon as possible."
After finishing speaking, Ryuzaki boarded his private plane.
"Dunwich, I didn't expect the Ryuzaki family to be from Dunwich. It seems that the previous mission about Ryuzaki may have happened in Dunwich, and the Dunwich incident has nothing to do with our Miskatonic University.
It is also related, so this task is not simple." Yin En thought for a while and continued: "But then again, since the two protagonists in the Dunwich incident, they were both taken from the two by our Miskatonic University.
Sent away in different senses, then who will be the villain of this mission? Will that monster really return from the universe?"
"Everything is possible, especially in the Cthulhu Game Hall." Liu Xing said seriously: "If the Cthulhu Game Hall is willing, then they can come up with hundreds of reasons to rationalize that monster.
Send them back...for example, if you are in trouble, Nayako can do anything."
After seeing off Ryuzaki, Liu Xing and others returned to their rooms, only to find that Tian Qing and others were packing their luggage again.
"Huh? Has Norton reached an agreement with those tribal alliances? Are we going to return to the ruins of that ancient civilization now?" Liu Xing asked curiously.
Li Hanxing, who had already packed his things, nodded and said: "Yes, Norton just informed us that the conditions have been negotiated and we can now go back to the excavation work, but this time there will be a Ranger team to escort us."
When Liu Xing and others heard about the Rangers, they thought of Ryan and others.
As expected, the rangers responsible for protecting the expedition team were none other than Ryan and others. Of course, a ranger team with only a few people would definitely not be able to protect an expedition team of hundreds of people, so Ryan had more than ten people by his side.
When Liu Xing and others came to the original campsite again, they found that there were more than ten local people having a "picnic" in the distance. Of course, Liu Xing also knew that these locals were here to monitor the expedition team. After all, even on both sides,
Even if cooperation can be achieved, it is impossible to trust the other party 100%.
Under Norton's instructions, Liu Xing and others directly ignored the monitors and re-established the camp on their own, while Ryan and others pulled up a circle of barbed wire around the camp, so that they could add a barbed wire fence to the camp.
A set of defensive equipment can also block the view of the monitors to a certain extent.
As for Chris, because he didn't want to be restricted everywhere in the camp, he found a place to camp nearby; while Taketori had nothing to do, so he ran to follow the witch to see what the witch wanted to do.
Of course, if something happens to Liu Xing and others, they can use Zhuye to contact her.
As a result, when it was time to have dinner, Ricky and Zakarenv came over with solemn faces, because they had just received bad news.
Something happened in Arkham City!
Just this afternoon, large-scale vomiting and diarrhea incidents occurred in Arkham City. These incidents were concentrated in schools and certain office buildings, so at first everyone thought it was collective food poisoning, but they soon discovered that these incidents
There was nothing wrong with the ingredients used in the canteen, and nothing wrong with the preserved food was found. In short, the canteen was completely ruled out as a suspect.
As a result, just when everyone was still confused, vomiting and diarrhea incidents occurred in many places. Basically, these patients went home to eat, or ate in twos and threes in restaurants, and some even did not eat in order to lose weight.
For lunch, I just had some fruit and yogurt.
As a result, Miskatonic University realized that something was wrong, so after some investigation, they decided that this large-scale vomiting and diarrhea incident was caused by someone releasing some kind of long-lost forbidden magic in Arkham City.
——Imaginary insect swarm.
The effect of the imaginary insect swarm is very simple, that is, it creates a group of insects that do not exist, or a swarm of insects that only exists on the spiritual level. Then this group of insects will keep wandering in the designated area and contact the area.
Various creatures... Because these bugs themselves only exist in fantasy, the stronger the caster's mental power, the more bugs he creates, and he can also add various kinds of bugs to these bugs.
Such special abilities, such as allowing these bugs to cause diarrhea and vomiting.
Because these bugs have no physical body, it is very difficult to deal with them. In addition, if the caster is not a human being, he can also make these bugs have more terrifying abilities. Therefore, a group of strong people gathered together a long time ago.
Together, they decided to make the "Imaginary Insect Swarm" history, and issued a joint statement that anyone who dares to use the "Imaginary Insect Swarm" in the future will be attacked by them.
Of course, because the spell "Imagine the Insect Swarm" has very high requirements for the caster, the people who could "imagine the Insect Swarm" at that time were all strong, which means that they can at least live a long life.
Chitose, so after the joint statement was issued, large-scale chaos caused by "imaginary insect swarms" still occurred from time to time, which also means that the magic of "imaginary insect swarms" is still being passed down.
"Now Arkham City has been completely blocked, and according to past experience, it will take at least a month or so for the insect swarms to disappear, because the casters will have paid a lot of effort to create these insect swarms at the beginning.
A large amount of MP and HP make the insect swarm a special mythical creature - a swarm. Although this mythical creature shares a set of attribute panels, if you only eliminate one or two of the insects,
, then it will have no impact on the entire insect swarm at all." Ricky said seriously.
Liu Xing felt a little headache when he heard about the group structure, because this type of mythical creature is really difficult to deal with; as Ricky just said, this type of mythical creature is composed of a large number of individuals.
When making relevant judgments, these individuals can all apply the overall template. However, if you only solve a few of them, you will not be able to have any impact on them as a whole... Therefore, only when there is a certain number in the group structure,
After a certain number of individuals are resolved, the group structure will be affected to a certain extent.
Therefore, when encountering a group of mythical creatures, Liu Xing could only say goodbye, because unless it was a last resort, the best way to deal with such mythical creatures was the Thirty-Six Strategies - the best strategy is to go.
What's more, this group mythical creature only exists on the spiritual level, which makes it immune to all physical attacks and most magical attacks, so Liu Xing and his party have no way to do anything about it.
"In that case, we won't be able to return to Arkham City in a short time." Zhang Jingxu frowned and said, "I don't know if this incident is a module, or if it is in the Cthulhu area.
Players are getting better."
"It should be a module. After all, this has affected the entire Arkham City. It's unreasonable to not have a module in the Cthulhu Run game lobby. But let's talk about it. This module is definitely not something we can participate in.
Because we simply cannot deal with this type of group-structured mythical creature." Zakarenv said with a smile.
