Chapter 99: The Law of Similarity and the Law of Contamination
There is bound to be a connection between idol wizards.
Just like prophet wizards can interfere with, obscure, and disguise each other's prophecies, and transformation wizards can also accelerate, interrupt, or reverse each other's transformation... Idol wizards will also influence each other.
But this kind of influence is more metaphysical.
It is based on the influence of "fate" level.
A powerful idol wizard will influence the idol wizards who are weaker than themselves within a certain range, making them become more and more like themselves in various senses. This is called the "law of similarity" of the idol school.
When this rule is applied to idol spells, that is, "replacing another person with a person with the same name as the target of the ritual", the most commonly used spell is "shadow double".
And the weak idol wizard can also borrow the power of the powerful idol wizard through this "similarity". This can actually be understood as the essence of the "primitive ritual"... which is to make oneself similar to the believers of gods.
To steal the power of truth.
——Just like a blood elf priest.
The most powerful weapon of an idol wizard is an "idol"...or "figure" made with the image of a true god or a powerful idol wizard.
Yes, the "figures" of idol wizards are like the "pre-transformation agent" that transforms wizards.
If they carry Mr. Yao's idol, they can evolve idol spells with similar effects and fields into Mr. Yao's magic.
For example, evolve "Healing Touch" into "Purifying Touch", and evolve "Flash Technique" into "Dazzling Skin", as if they were Mr. Yao's devout priests.
And if they use simple ritual spells to replace the idol they hold with "Pale Princess", they can change "Healing Touch" into "Ghost Touch"; and if they change it to "Black Widow", they can
Becomes "Toxic Touch".
The Melvin family, where "Professor Wolf" comes from, is a wizard family that is extremely proficient in the "Law of Similarity".
They create children of gods and "make them look like gods". In this way, they can achieve the advanced conditions of "gods on earth".
In addition, the Idol School also has a core rule called "Law of Contact".
It can also be understood as the differences between idol schools.
Just like in the soul-stealing school, there are two differences between controlling the mind and controlling the soul.
The so-called "law of contact" means that the fate of idol wizards always tends to be close to each other. Weak idol wizards will be unconsciously attracted to powerful idol wizards.
But once the weak idol wizard comes into contact with the spellcasting traces of the powerful idol wizard, or even just participates in related events, the fate of both parties will be disturbed.
——The point is, both sides.
In other words, the weaker party can also influence the stronger party.
Even if it is indirect contact, it can be said that two people are "infected".
For example, if there is an idol wizard who uses the "power of worship" and helps a village resist floods, and thus gains their worship, allowing the villagers to worship him as a god - usually at this time, they will give
Make up a god's name yourself, such as "God of Drought and Floods", "Anshun Gong", etc., so that the villagers think he is a passing god.
Then this ancestral temple can continuously provide him with strength.
But if at this time, another idol wizard with the "power of fear" comes here and does evil here, stirring up flash floods and causing earthquakes, people will be extremely afraid of him. Then this power of fear will also be caused by the two people "
"Contacted" was passed to the previous idol wizard, thereby weakening his power.
The Idol Wizard's mana pool is similar to a fan chart.
Whether it is "desire", "worship" or "fear", they will all occupy part of the mana of order. Idol spells above the silver level require the use of specific power to complete.
If the first idol wizard happens to not have a spell activated through the "power of fear", then this power of fear will always be stuffed in his mana pool and cannot be used...if other mana is used,
Then when the mana is restored, the power of fear will become more and more.
——It's like a large number of useless cards have been stuffed into the deck, polluting the deck.
Nefertari's teacher, Seti the "Bone Healer", is an idol wizard who is good at the "Law of Infection".
He can even use the students' tokens to treat or strengthen them remotely at the bone raising ground. If his students are severely injured, the tokens will be broken - of course, Seti can also use the tokens his students have come into contact with.
Something, in turn curse, or even kill the other party directly. But he doesn't have to do this. Nine Cake Chinese
From this point of view.
Now Girandaio has arrived in the Cinder Barrens, following Nefertari to search for the nightmare of the legendary mercenary Justus.
It is also the confrontation between the two branches of "similarity" and "contact" in the idol school.
——She is actually in danger when she comes here.
Only Nefertari knew about this.
She didn't tell Ghirlandaio about it...
A powerful idol wizard can even make his own destiny form a cycle and infect other people who follow him. This is the combined effect of similarity and contamination.
Just as the Bone Healer's original intentions changed, his students would fall into the same fate as him.
——When Frederick Melvin and his friend Justus "The Unfallen Shield" came to the Cinder Barrens, Justus died.
And now, Ghirlandaio and Nefertari have also arrived here.
This is why Nefertari tried his best to prevent Nieussel from coming.
Same place, same number of people...
If Frederick was here to investigate something at that time.
Then their goals have become the same.
If even the genders become the same, then the possibility of the fate of the past reverberating now becomes too great.
...In other words, the fate of "one of them murders the other" may happen again here.
Once Ghirlandaio knows about this, he will meet the conditions of the "Law of Contact". Although "Professor Wolf" Frederick is not good at the Law of Contact, he is not completely incompetent.
If he takes the initiative, he may indeed cause Ghirlandaio to fall into the "law of similarity" and repeat the fate of the past.
……certainly.
When Nefertari first met Ghirlandaio, she also used the detection method of the Idol School. However, it slipped away from Ghirlandaio.
Now she knows that Ghirlandaio is not a wizard from the idol school.
So this means that there is a powerful idol wizard who is protecting him.
But her teacher is already the strongest idol wizard.
——Could it be the man in the mirror?
If Ghirlandaio represents "The Man in the Mirror"...
Does this mean that there are three golden-level idol wizards here, whose destinies are intertwined?
Nefertari was worried.
The other side.
An old man wearing a strange cloak and holding a mirror in his arms also walked out of the subway in the Cinder Barrens.
He took off his cloak.
Some of the old pupils have mirror-like pure silver pupils.
