Chapter 19 Precious images of early humans taming zombies
Xia Houyan took out the "Essence of Necromancy" from his arms and solemnly turned to the pages after "Resurrection", which contained the chapter "Corpse Control".
——Since the entire book is written in ancient Aeolian magic script, the word "control" in the title of this chapter can actually be translated as "fuck", but the lord decisively chose it to be less likely to cause misunderstanding.
statement.
Xia Houyan held the Necromancer Book and slowly walked to the cage where the zombie "Dave" was imprisoned.
Dave showed obvious fear of the Lord, wailing and twisting his body in the cage, shrinking to the corner farthest from Xia Houyan.
Although Master Lowry had heard from Lawrence that the lord had a special ability that could make zombies fearful and travel thousands of miles away, but seeing this magical moment of "zombies being afraid of people" with his own eyes, the old mage's eyes widened in astonishment.
Alice on the side had a complicated look on her face: If she had known that the lord had a physique that could repel zombies, then why did she rush into the zombie wave risklessly to protect the lord yesterday, and ended up losing her life in vain?
——However, she then thought about the scene when she was resurrected by the lord last night, remembered the warm palm of the lord testing her body temperature, and remembered the sonorous and powerful words "You are also my subject"...
For a moment, the female swordsman couldn't figure out whether her death was worth it.
The onlookers had different thoughts, but Xia Houyan was completely devoted to his magic experiment - he followed the detailed instructions in the chapter of "Corpse Control" and read aloud in the ancient Aeolian language:
"There are thousands of valleys in the netherworld, and those who have gone there will return; Yin and Yang are far away, and the secrets are there; monsters and monsters breed, and gods and men guide them; your body and soul, only I can guide you..."
A difficult and obscure ancient syllable made everyone around him feel dizzy. Only Master Laurie, who was also proficient in ancient syllables, paid attention to the magic fluctuations in the air: the result was the same as last time, the intensity of the magic tide was not exaggerated.
, completely at the normal level of a second-level "junior mage".
Master Lowry was puzzled.
As the spell fragments recorded in the "Essence of Necromancy" come to an end, the magic power fluctuations in the air gradually reach a climax - yes, there is no phantom of any god appearing this time, because the "Corpse Control Technique" is just a
An apprentice-level magic is not as powerful as the master-level magic "Resurrection".
The most bizarre thing about this whole thing is that the prerequisite for the magician to use the "zombie control technique" is that he has already used the master-level magic "resurrection technique" to create a domestic zombie that can be manipulated - from this perspective
Look, "Corpse Control" should be regarded as the low-level magic with the highest threshold in history...
——Master Laurie was thinking about boring things like this, watching speechlessly as the Lord finished reciting the incantation, and then raised his right hand high, pointing directly at the sky.
In an instant, the magic elements surging in the air, like iron powder attracted by a magnet, surged towards the lord's right hand: the magic elements condensed to the extreme finally seeped out from the void, giving the lord his original power.
The white palms were coated with a layer of pale gray.
Master Lowry knows that this layer of gray energy wrapping the Lord's palm is the embodiment of the ghostly magic.
The principle of the so-called "corpse control technique" is to achieve precise control of every move of the zombie by relying on the magic power fluctuations that are in sync with the ghost magic power in the zombie's body!
Xia Houyan did not have an in-depth study of the principles of magic like the master. He just felt that after the gray appeared, his right hand felt cold all the time - not the kind that makes the hair stand on end and the crotch.
It's cold, but it's more like a breeze blowing from the pond suddenly under the sun at noon in summer, or the first sip of ice Coke poured into your mouth after running a thousand meters, refreshing and refreshing.
Incomparable!
——The lord who failed the History of Magic course was naturally unaware that he might be the first magician in the history of the empire to describe the magic of the underworld in this way.
According to the memories of other necromancers, the feeling of being attached to the body by the ghostly magic is "extraordinary", as if part of the whole person has been thrown into the deep cold ice water, and thousands of knives are cutting you at the same time.
skin - this also makes "manipulating zombies" recognized as a chore that must be avoided in the social circle of necromancers.
The lord, who was unaware of his blessings, pointed at Dave in the cage, stretched out his right hand wrapped in a "gray glove", and then imitated the appearance of the male protagonist of the second grade anime, and moved his hand from left to right with great momentum.
right:
"Climb for me!"
Zombie Dave huddled in the corner of the cage, looking at the Lord outside the cage with slight horror, without any intention of moving.
Xia Houyan was stunned, took a deep breath, put on the rich broadcasting voice of the Spring Festival Gala host, waved his hands and tried again:
"Dance for me!"
Zombie Dave is indifferent.
The onlookers stared at the lord like a fool.
Xia Houyan was so angry that he simply used both hands to fight at the same time. In the most exaggerated way that humans can think of, he rubbed a spiral pill at Dave and shouted:
"Stand up!"
Zombie Dave remains motionless.
There was an embarrassing silence.
"Lord, don't try..." Master Laurie couldn't stand it any longer, holding up his sleeves and advising, "You did not resurrect this zombie yourself. Although it also has ghostly magic in its body, the rhythm of its magic is different from yours.
Adjustment——According to the mechanism of this magic, this zombie will never listen to your command."
"So I can resurrect the zombies myself?" Xia Houyan thought for a moment, stretched out his right hand, and tentatively hooked his fingers at Alice Comstock who was not far away, "Come... come?"
Then, the female swordsman stepped forward somewhat stiffly and walked towards the lord.
Judging from the surprised and slightly embarrassed expression on Alice's face, it was obvious that the movements of her body were not of her own will.
"Stop!" Xia Houyan raised his palms toward Alice, who was getting closer.
So the female swordsman immediately stopped where she was and obeyed like the most loyal slave.
Somebody around me blew a sweet whistle.
Xia Houyan looked at the pretty red-faced female swordsman and felt irritated:
How come it was originally a "corpse control technique" used to control zombies, but it became a mind control and soul-stirring technique in my case?
"So Captain Comstock is indeed 'your' zombie now..." Master Lowry said thoughtfully, "Because her body is filled with your ghostly magic power, you can completely use the 'Corpse Control Technique'
Method to make her obey your orders completely..."
Alice's face turned redder.
"Day..." Xia Houyan was extremely frustrated, "Why should I control Alice when I have nothing to do? Isn't the key to the problem now, how can we control wild zombies like Dave?"
"It's impossible!" Master Lowry said firmly, "Everyone's magic power has its own unique rhythmic signature. Since you are not the creator of these wild zombies, there is no way for you to make them obey your magic command! Even,
The reason why the wild zombies in the infected area attacked Lawrence who was resurrected by you is precisely because the ghost magic power in the two bodies is not in sync! I'm telling you this, if you can command these zombies in this life, I will do it on the spot.
Eat this cage..."
In the middle of speaking, Master Lowry suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Xia Houyan asked.
