Chapter 53 Yunmeng

Seeing the pursuers sent by the Red Earl carrying a human head away, Xuan Weizi slowly withdrew from "Yunzhongmeng".

"Dream in the Cloud" is a new psychic ability created by Xuan Weizi, which must be used with the weapon control method. It is also related to Ma'ang's psychic talent.

Maiang can emit spiritual energy fluctuations that distort other people's sensory perception, making other creatures unable to see clearly, ignoring its existence, and even completely subverting sensory perception. However, this psychic power is not perfect enough.

After the body was condensed into Biyun Ruyi, combined with the psychic power of "forged feelings", it was upgraded to a wide-area illusion that completely controls other people's sensory perception.

In fact, it seems inaccurate to say that this is an illusion, because this method also includes the effect of mind control, and the illusion cannot be seen through "true seeing" alone. But on the contrary, even if the Will save can be resisted, the five senses will still see the illusion.

What's more important is that the illusion created by "Dream in the Cloud" is constructed by Xuan Weizi based on the inner scene of Yuanshen. With the bonus of Biyun Ruyi's combined force, it is comparable to the joint performance of two high-level psychics. The will exemption requirement is

It is extremely high, and even the "True Seeing Technique" cannot fully see through it.

In addition, the scenery displayed in "Dream in the Cloud" will also change and move according to Xuan Weizi's thoughts, and is not an unchanging illusion. It can even allow people who are deeply trapped in the illusion to participate in the "performance" and think that they have killed Sarai

Sir Michael, carrying the forged head, left with the excitement of victory.

As for how they defeated such a powerful armed guard? In everyone's mind, more or less, they felt that they had the opportunity to show off their power, perform well, and have great luck, but Xuan Weizi just used the "cloud in the clouds"

"Dream" evokes this idea, and the illusion is naturally deduced and formed in front of everyone's senses.

"Flowers in the mirror, the moon in the water, dreams and bubbles, all living beings are in the image. Even if you can see through the illusion, you may not be able to see through the image in the heart." Xuan Weizi sighed secretly, could he not be talking about himself?

"Dr. Olenso, are you really sure that you can regain Pyre Town?" Sir Salemi asked.

Xuan Weizi helped Biyun Ruyi and asked: "The Crimson Earl who now occupies Chaidui Town is the lord of Lagen City, and Chaidui Town was originally under his jurisdiction. To recapture Chaidui Town from him, you

Do you know what it means?"

Sir Salemi denounced the injustice of failure and frustration in his heart, and replied: "The Red Earl is not a legal noble, and he exacts excessive taxes. We are resisting tyranny!"

"What happens after the resistance? Don't tell me what kind of public trial will be held after he is caught." Xuan Weizi's tone was cold.

"If Laigen City loses its lord, I will contact the church members there and ask them to organize law-abiding citizens and elect a chief among them. In this way..."

"Pfft-hahahaha!" Before Sir Salemi finished speaking, Xuan Weizi couldn't help laughing. The other party looked serious and asked:

"Dr. Olenso, what do you mean? Am I wrong?"

Xuan Weizi smiled and shook his head and waved: "No, I just think that what we are going to do now is to kill a local governor and replace him. What do you think about electing citizens?"

"This...what else?" Sir Salemi didn't understand what the other party meant.

Xuan Weizi said: "Okay, let's just assume that the Red Earl has been killed by you and me, and Chai Dui Town has been recovered, but this move is already a complete act of rebellion. Even in the Golden Crown Wood Dominion, we have no power in front of the Imperial Legion.

There is a little room for explanation. How do you plan to deal with the next problem? Also, don’t forget that the previous trouble of intercepting the Ora Guards has not been resolved yet.”

"I will explain to the Imperial Legion! I will take responsibility for anything!" Sir Salemi said righteously: "Doctor Olanso, aren't you worried about the Imperial Legion's accountability afterwards? As long as the Red Earl dies, I will

We will contact more believers through the church in Lagen City, and at the same time organize the civilians in Lagen City and surrounding villages and towns so that they can unite to face the censure of the Imperial Legion."

In fact, Sir Salemi has long been dissatisfied with the Imperial Legion's extensive appointment of local governors. Compared with mages acting as lords, the church can lead the loyal and devout residents, so that the church's power to lead the people and dominate faith can be demonstrated to a greater extent.

Xuan Weizi scratched his head helplessly, and had no choice but to speak bluntly: "What if the Imperial Legion comes to attack? You must know that after the spring, the Legion signs a peace treaty with the indigenous people. The essence is to buy time so that the Imperial Legion can integrate the colonies in the New World, the Golden Crown Wood Dominion.

Although it is remote, the current bad incident of the lord being killed, doesn't it just give the Imperial Legion an excuse to send a large army to eliminate the rebellion?

Moreover, Laigen City is located on a traffic thoroughfare, so it is natural for them to regain control. As for the church...haven't you ever thought about why the Red Earl wanted to attack the Church of Laigen City? Without the acquiescence of higher-level figures, the Red Earl would be so openly confrontational.

church?"

Sir Salemi said angrily: "If the Imperial Legion has degenerated to the point of giving up its faith, then I don't mind leading the people of Lagen City and surrounding villages and towns to fight to the end for the cause of the Holy Lord!"

"Wow! Your Excellency is really brave. Are you trying to become a martyred saint?" Xuan Weizi said in a strange tone.

As a result, Sir Salemi became more convinced: "If my Lord really wants me to sacrifice my life at this moment, then I will no longer hesitate!"

"If you want to be a martyr, do you have to drag so many people to die together? Have you asked others? Do you have to be so wishful thinking?" Xuan Weizi sneered: "If you really want the church to replace the Red Earl, then I will

Let me ask you, if you want the church to occupy the city of Laigen and the surrounding villages and towns, have you thought about how to govern it specifically? If there is a new ruler, what policy will you adopt? How to appease the merchants in the original city of Laigen instead of scaring them?

Do you have to flee? You said you need to contact the people. How do you make them believe in your rule instead of defecting to the Imperial Legion in a blink of an eye?

Lagen City is located on a traffic thoroughfare, and success or failure depends on it. How can you ensure that once the Imperial Legion arrives, traffic will not be cut off, making a town unable to obtain food and material supplies from the outside world? Then are you planning to defend the city or stay in the wilderness?

Fighting guerrillas? But if there is no support from surrounding villages and towns, how long can you support it with people wandering outside?"

"I, I..." Sir Salemi did not expect Xuan Weizi to throw out a lot of questions at once, leaving him speechless.

"Ruling a town and occupying it are two different things." Xuan Weizi said: "According to what I have learned before, although the Red Earl is a mage, he is quite effective in governing Laigen City. He sends soldiers to patrol traffic junctions every year.

He asked craftsmen to smooth the roads and provided various preferential treatment to merchants. At the turn of spring and summer, the farmer's grain storage last year was about to be exhausted, and he would allocate part of the grain from the warehouse in Laigen City as a low-interest loan to help the farmer tide over.

Difficulties. The ability to sell many supplies and specialties in the surrounding villages and towns relies on the relationship and close contacts between the Red Earl and various business travelers, which of course includes Chai Dui Town.

In addition, the Red Earl recruited a large number of low-level mages and low-to-medium-level warriors to come to Laigen City, allocating land and rooms to them. At the same time, he made a large number of magic items and sold them to the outside world, using this profit to attract more foreign adventurers to take root. Although Laigen City

Root City is still a remote town in general, but at least it is full of vitality and vitality. Now that you have replaced the Red Earl, you plan to turn Root City into the sphere of influence of the church. What will other business travelers who have close contacts with mages think?"

Sir Salemi replied angrily: "If the merchants have fallen to this level, do we still have to compromise with them? I don't believe that there are no pious and generous wealthy merchants who follow the church! As long as we gain a foothold in Lagen City, there will be wealthy merchants who will fight for our bodies."

If you are healthy and come to the church to pray, they will naturally donate at that time!”

This time, it was as if Xuan Weizi had been hit by a "psionic blast". He was shocked and speechless. He just asked: "Sir Salemi, I would like to ask you how much real estate your family owned back then."

?How many servants?”

"Real estate? My family only has a suburban villa. Apart from an old housekeeper and a retinue, I can't afford any other servants." Sir Salemi said this without any shame: "Poverty is one of my Lord's teachings. Nobles cannot

You should be arrogant and indulgent because of your status. As the guardian family of the church, our family has always been like this."

"What kind of bullshit aristocrat? Why don't you settle down as soon as you break up?" Xuan Weizi cursed in his heart, lamenting that people who are deeply trapped in the worship of ghosts and gods are really hopeless.

Although Xuan Weizi has not carefully studied the intercepted part of the miraculous power, but seeing Sir Salemi's stubborn ideas and traditional concepts, even to the point of acting regardless of the actual situation, I really don't know what the future will be like.

Ah? Could it be that those who master miracles are all this kind of people?

"But this is fine. The more determined you are, the better I can control you." Xuan Weizi thought to himself. He stopped struggling with Sir Salemi and came to the rear to deal with those who were involved in the "Dream in the Cloud" illusion one by one.

Awake.

After all, this was the first time that Xuan Weizi used "Dream in the Cloud" in actual combat, and it affected a large area. However, it was very difficult to change the sensory perceptions of so many people at the same time, so other people who did not participate in the battle directly used their psychic powers.

Stunned and passed out.

In fact, people like the young retinue were not aware of Xuan Weizi's appearance at all. They just fell into unconsciousness as soon as their eyes turned white.

Xuan Weizi shook Biyun Ruyi and thought: "This can be regarded as a 'spiritual blast' that does not distinguish between friend and foe. The casting range is large, and it is difficult to control the details. However, the method of controlling weapons is the same as psychic powers.

, the method of execution is very flexible. It may be able to transform a range of abilities into concentrated attacks targeting individuals, or it can also do the opposite. This is equivalent to being able to switch between the powerful, extreme, and enhanced effects of various abilities at any time.

Far distance, delay and other effects... In this way, Biyun Ruyi can also be regarded as a magic scepter. In fact, Ruyi is almost like a scepter!"

Xuan Weizi pointed at the young retinue, but saw that the young man did not wake up immediately, and showed confusion. Just when he was about to check, Sir Salemi squeezed over first, raised his hand to perform miraculous treatment, and seemed not to trust Xuan Wei.

Zi’s psychic powers.

"Okay, okay, I won't rob you." Xuan Weizi was too lazy to worry about this, and continued to let Hengyizi observe the situation in Chaidui Town, and planned the next arrangements in his mind.



Wow!

The Red Earl pulled his head out of the blood basin. There was no trace of blood on his face, but he looked half suspicious and half puzzled, as if he saw a pig jumping out of the magic circle that was supposed to summon the fire element.

, completely incomprehensible.

The young attendant beside Sir Salemi was deliberately let go by the Red Earl. From the beginning, he deliberately followed Sir Salemi in order to keep an eye on him while slowly transforming him into a complete "blood spawn".

.

However, just now, the Red Earl had been secretly controlling the young servant's body, but he was unexpectedly knocked unconscious by a sudden force.

But at this time, something strange happened. The blood connection between the Red Earl and the young servant was not interrupted by the fainting of the spawn. He even noticed an energy moving efficiently around the young servant.

It's a pity that the Crimson Earl couldn't effectively detect what happened through the fainting blood spawn. But the efficient operation of energy gave the Crimson Earl a sense of familiarity——

"It's like... it's like the vitality of the human body has enveloped that space. How is this possible? Could it be that that guy was swallowed by something? No, no, no, that is not a physical substance, but a kind of substance similar to the human body.

Life vitality has a homogeneous energy field, but how is this possible?

Could it be that the high-level druid appeared? I heard that the ninth-level druid can show the characteristics of the original beast, and will have a powerful life energy field when performing 'shape change'... This is not right! The original beast is not exactly the same.

Like human beings, and the life energy field just now has very pure human characteristics, how is this possible?"

The Red Earl was filled with confusion and could not explain. He asked "How is it possible?" several times in succession, as if he had encountered the biggest problem in his life.

"Although blood magic is related to vampires, it is essentially a magic skill that explores the essence of human life." The Red Earl hurried back and forth in the small curtain: "There is a lot of knowledge related to life in necromancy, but it is just

Laymen and ignorant people regard it as an evil means, but they never think about why people live and why they die? Why does the body age over time?

Those incompetent mages who only know how to use necromancy to shoot around and drive corpses cannot understand the great secrets of life and death! As for the greedy ghosts who transform themselves into lichs, they will never understand that the living body is

The best carrier to cope with various changes, rather than mechanically using the body as a container and moving the soul around!”

The Red Earl suddenly scratched his head in annoyance: "There is actually a spellcaster who is proficient in this kind of life skill in Chaihei Town? This is definitely not a Druid! Could it be Dr. Olenso?

Yes! That’s him! He’s not good at anything, but he still wants to be a doctor. He must be taking the opportunity to study the vitality of the human body like I did back then! I didn’t expect that someone would actually figure it out! Then next, hum…”
