"Appearance and clothing can be disguised, behavior can be imitated, and the power of the devil can be taken away and given."
"As for the star of destiny shining in the sky... you and I both know that the entire sky is a false thing, just a reflection of the dreams of all living beings."
Famas seemed to know what Zhongli was thinking, and he denied all the evidence of Heulia's resurrection.
The emperor surprisingly did not refute. Although he did not approve of many of the boy's actions during the Demon God Battle Formation, he also knew that what Famas said about the False Heaven was indeed true.
"Since this lady is not Heulia, who could she be?"
Zhongli replayed what he saw and heard about Heulia in the Golden Room over and over in his mind, trying to find flaws that were inconsistent with the Salt Mother's behavior thousands of years ago.
At that time, the emperor was shocked by the demon god's resurrection and subconsciously ignored many details. Looking back now, Heulia's power was indeed weaker than before, and her life characteristics were also quite strange.
Compared to the Demon God, Heulia now feels more like a monster in the wilderness to Zhongli. This illusion reached its peak when Heulia handed over the power of the Demon God, but Zhongli didn't think much about it at the time.
Simply attribute it to the weak period of the Demon God's resurrection from the dead.
After all, when Famas first escaped from the ley line seal, he was just a fire slime with weak authority.
"I'm not her father, how do I know who she is?"
Faced with Zhongli's question, Famas stared at him with disgust as if he were a fool, and then dismissed it in a tone of voice that should be taken for granted. He even imitated Dadalia's appearance when he was trying to please Zhongli, and spread out his hands in a pretentious manner.
.
"you……!"
Zhongli didn't expect Famas to react like this. He was about to criticize the other party for his crude words, but then he remembered that Famas had to explain the matter of resurrection. When it came to his mouth, he choked on his words and only came out with a few words.
syllable.
"What am I? I'm in a hurry? I've broken my guard?"
The corner of Famas's mouth curled up in a happy angle, and he walked to Zhongli's side with his hands behind his back. He even stood on tiptoe to put his smiling face in front of Zhongli and look at him.
Zhongli turned his gaze away in disgust.
He won't get angry with some childish people.
At this moment, Wendy also stretched out her hand and tugged on Famas's sleeve, signaling him not to cause trouble.
"Well, we have to start with the principle of resurrection."
Seeing that Zhongli didn't respond, Famas, who was asking for trouble, returned to his serious appearance and began to tell the resurrection process from the beginning.
"In the early days of Munata, there were two mainstream methods of resurrection. The first was according to the laws of war, where the defeated returned to dust and the victors gathered together to be rekindled. However, this method has many limitations, and I don't usually use it much.
"
"And the second one was Reindot's whimsical idea, which was later named [Resurrection Ceremony]"
When it comes to Reindot, Famas's mood seems to have improved a lot.
"Even during the Demon God War, when talents abounded, Gold was an out-and-out genius."
“Through the ultimate alchemy, the original materials are refined to create a body that can accommodate the soul. Then Buyer intercepts the soul of the deceased from the World Tree, and uses my authority to complete the fusion of soul and body, achieving the goal of resurrecting the dead.
"
“The process is clear, the results are good, and very practical.”
The young man talked eloquently, but the traveler and Zhongli discovered at the same time that although Famas praised the resurrection method proposed by Reindot, there was not much appreciation and satisfaction in his blood-red eyes.
"After several years of practicing the Ritual of Resurrection, Gold, I, and Buyer proudly announced that the Alliance has usurped the power of death. As long as they do not take the initiative to end their lives, all Munata people, even non-Munata people, can
You can live forever, after all, the world tree records the past of everyone in Teyvat continent."
"This grand miracle lasted for hundreds of years, and no one ever raised objections to the resurrection ceremony. It was not until a certain equally talented great magician expressed a new view that the carnival about the resurrection gradually stopped."
"The name of this magician is Ansenio. He later became the "Pope" of Munata. Regarding his life story... we will talk about it later."
"Ansenio published a paper "Research on the Deconstruction of the Soul", which elaborated on the nature of the soul and the meaning of the soul in alchemy. He believed that in the concept of alchemy, mercury, sulfur, and salt are collectively called sacred
Three elements.”
"Mercury represents the human soul. When it rises to the level of alchemical philosophy, it is the rational soul in the alchemical soul view. Salt represents the body, the soul of desire, and sulfur represents the heart, the soul of will..."
Famas spoke energetically, but it was difficult for the listeners to follow his thinking, especially the food, drink and entertainment experts headed by Paimon, who stared blankly in confusion.
"...To put it simply, Ansenio discovered the interaction between matter and soul, and thus came to the theory that the nature of the soul can be changed without using alchemical rituals and magic."
"This theory may not sound impressive, but you must know that the strength of the soul is directly related to the magic talent. A tough soul is more likely to be watched by the gods and be given external organs to manipulate elemental power."
"If Ansenio's theory is true, then the scientific research institute can study what substances affect the soul, and then find a low-cost, large-scale method to strengthen the strength of human souls, thus giving Munata more original powers.
God, and an organized army of magicians.”
Everyone present was considered a well-informed person, but after Famas's description, they couldn't help but marvel at the young man's grand ambition.
Not to mention forming an army of magicians, even during the 3,700 years that Zhongli ruled Liyue, he had seen no more than a hundred serious magicians with inheritance and support.
There are only a handful of people who can be called "magicians" in the minds of travelers and Paimon.
Although the continent of Teyvat is a world of magic and fantasy, and many original gods can use elemental power at will to create magic-like effects, the real magic inheritance is extremely closed, and systematic magic knowledge is monopolized in the hands of a few people.
.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Except for the occasional magician recruiting magic apprentices in the Xumi Order, the remaining magicians are inherited from families or rely on the master-apprentice inheritance system based on fate.
Miss Mona and her master Barbie Ross are the most powerful examples.
After all, in the concept of the traditional magic world, it is normal for a powerful mage who intends to pass on to find a sole heir.
And in the traditional mage relationship in the magic world, the mentor has almost absolute control over the apprentice, and the master-apprentice contract is equivalent to a contract of betrayal. There are also various punishments for apprentices. For example, the most famous one is to use magic to deprive the five senses.
Use drugs to clear your mind, causing the subject to completely lose their perception of the world.
This method of punishment may cause irreversible damage to the apprentice's mental state, but judging from Mona's daily behavior, Barbieros is obviously a kind teacher.
Because of the closed nature of magic, many great inheritances have been cut off, and more gifted children will not receive appropriate instruction throughout their lives.
For those children born in ordinary families who want to learn knowledge, the most fortunate ones are to be taken and trained by scholars from the Xumi Order Academy, or to receive invitations to enroll. As a holy place of knowledge, the library of the Order Academy may be able to
Find the remaining spell books and step into the path of magic.
For example, Miss Lisa, the librarian of Mondstadt Library.
The lucky one again is to be spotted by a magician looking for an heir, and become a magic apprentice under a witch, or be taken away by the church and trained to become a salaried clergyman and church knight.
It's like using Miss Barbara's wish magic.
But there are always wizards who will treat apprentices as some kind of cheap labor. Very few of a group of apprentices can stand out and learn real knowledge, especially black magicians with evil directions, who will even use apprentices as spell materials and experiments.
The vast majority of the remaining children discovered their talents accidentally, stumbled into the world, were ignorant, were deceived and used, and used the random powers they had figured out to run around.
They are either chosen by some organization to become subordinates and executives, or they become third-rate bounty hunters, wild mages, or members of treasure stealing groups, or they are simply targeted by some evil things and become supplements.
For these people, the magical and mysterious continent of Teyvat is extremely beautiful, but also extremely cruel.
Therefore, most magicians have eccentric temperaments and are disobedient to management.
Therefore, the difficulty of forming an army of magicians is too high. It is probably equivalent to sneaking into the room and pulling out one of his dragon whiskers while the Rock King is sleeping without disturbing the other party, and then escaping.
