Well, let me talk first. I made a mistake yesterday and sent the unchanged ones as if they were modified... So, if you have time, please review the previous chapter a little bit, although it is a bit different.
It doesn't have much impact on the plot.
——
The room was very wide and empty. Some stones were piled up in the room in a mess. Only by the blurred patterns on it could they tell the shape of their original one.
And the two figures stood quietly among the rocks.
The air was deposited, and it seemed a little sticky. The silence slowly expanded, wrapping everything around it, and even the dust slowly rising from the light seemed to stick together...
But just a moment of change, the silence was destroyed by a rustling sound.
What followed was a crisp but absolutely unpleasant shock!
One of the two figures, the woman holding a giant sword moved... swift and incompetent! The distance between the two of them seemed to have disappeared at this moment. The interval between extreme quiet and extreme movement was only a moment.
, and at the end of this moment, the dark brown sword in her hand had already pointed to the opponent's heart!
A translucent silver light film flashed out of thin air, turning from colorless to turbid silver white, separating the two figures! In front of the dark long sword, the light curtain was as fragile as crystal, and the sword blade was swinging.
, and then burst into a burst of light rain.
But this light film is not meaningless. In order to break it, the sword swung out, and the human movement speed naturally slowed down.
In the flying light, the figure in the black robe was retreating.
The opportunity is only a moment, but that's enough.
A powerful force condensed invisibly out of thin air, pulling the sword and pulling him out of the woman's hand! A layer of oil shining with starlight gushed over the hilt of the sword, caught off guard, no one had the ability to go from that
He held things tightly in the slippery oil, so the woman could only watch her original weapon flip over the air and slash towards her!
In fact, the woman didn't watch at all. The long sword's offensive was swift and incompetent. But her movements were even better. The sword light had just turned halfway, and she had accelerated again and slid down from the blade.
.Running straight towards the figure in black robe.
Her movements were extremely fast, leaving a string of afterimages in the air! Her hands clenched her fists, and even when her slender five fingers were clenched, they were still delicate and small, but they brought about a strong wind. It was sharp and thin.
sharp!
However, the figure in the black robe was faster... The black robe suddenly shone brightly, as dazzling as the sun! Although the light only existed for a moment, when the woman rushed through a short distance, the person was no longer in place.
.
In fact, it was no longer a human wrapped in a black robe. Even calling it a human was a bit reluctant - a strange yellow-green creature jumped backwards. His short body had a long olive-shaped head.
In the eye sockets, the huge eyeballs did not blink, but countless hook claws grew on the slender limbs. It used these hook claws and outrageous long arms to climb into the high room in one jump
On the ceiling!,
Then several huge stones in the room flew up in the air and fell towards the woman's figure!
"Boom!" In the two heavy muffled sounds, the gravel flew like rain! The stones actually collapsed under the woman's fist, just like some mud after the sun was dried.
"It doesn't matter?"
Edward gave out a long breath, transformed back from the shape of the throat-locking monster, and asked.
"It's okay. Master."
The woman stood up and shook her head, but in fact her hands were hanging softly. The two stones just now flew over very quickly and had enough power. Even if she broke it, her arms were shocked.
I couldn't lift it up for a moment! A slight blood red slid from her wrists, and bright petals dyed in the stone powder on the ground...
The psychic warlock couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
Bound by that strange magic contract, the former general only spoke when necessary, otherwise he would be completely silent, somewhat mechanical and lifeless, although this indifference combined with her face, there was another kind of
The beauty is as magnificent as the glitter of ice crystals, but after watching it for a long time, it always makes people feel a little heartbroken.
It makes people feel a little less interested in practicing.
"Go to find Lisa and let her treat you." Edward waved his hand and asked her to leave. Suddenly, he was a little envious of the arena in the Magic Academy - the magic there, which ensured that the opponent would have no life even if he lost. He could use it with all his strength.
Power is indeed very convenient, but unfortunately, his attitude towards spiritual energy is to use it as a trump card, so he does not want anyone who is unfamiliar with or who may be betrayal and knows his own background.
"A few responses are quite correct, and the reaction is OK." Ling Jingfu appeared on his shoulder, his voice was rare and gentle: "The power of the mind is the most powerful force in the entire multiverse... You have become more and more aware of it recently.
It's good to have this point. But some strange ideas will actually bind you. I think it's the fundamental reason why you can't cross this wall of truth and touch the five-level superpowers."
"Didn't you say before that's because the time hasn't arrived yet?"
"According to your current growth rate, it is not a strange thing at all, right?" Ling Jingfu said: "The key is that you don't have real enlightenment. Otherwise, you would have passed this obstacle long ago."
"It's not that everything you want becomes a system..."
"Don't let me repeat it anymore. Any thing, enlarged to the entire world, or even the entire universe, is by no means material, but the core of various wills and the layers of appearances wrapped outside. When you can
When you use your will to penetrate the appearance of things and touch the core, you have the ability to change it."
The Spirit Crystal servant swayed his body and chattered: "Humans always want to grasp reality from concept, but in fact, inferior senses cannot touch the reality of this world at all, because the observable world does not exist. In the human eyes
The world is just a special reflection of low-level senses in limited time and space, not the original real world... Therefore, the eyes are unreliable, and even things like real eyes are unreliable. Only consciousness is this multiverse
The only thing that is trustworthy in this, so you must change the way you understand the world. First, you must fully believe in yourself.”
Just believe in yourself? This theory is... too idealistic.
Edward was silent. In his heart, most of his knowledge accumulated over the years. He was a materialism that promoted the standard of objective existence. Therefore, this pure idealist idea is really difficult to accept.
"Don't hold your weird theories to the point, that's meaningless! You should also understand that it can't explain everything at all! You just need to remember that reality is an illusion, but it's just relatively stable! As long as you exceed that
With the threshold, your power will be qualitatively improved! At that time, I dare say that as long as you break through the barrier of this truth, the level five spiritual energy is enough to let you deal with those birdmen!”
"Is that easy?" Edward reached out and rubbed his eyebrows. The emptying of mental power made him feel a little tired. The slight numbness and itch in his mind was always difficult to adapt.
For several days, he has been studying and simulating battles with celestial creatures, but some records in the data are terrible once they fall into actual combat. For example, the existence outside these main material planes are born
It only exists for combat. Some relatively fragile elemental or physical attacks are extremely difficult to work, especially for Ariele Edward, it is impossible for him to really use any very harmful superpowers.
But these guys have strong power and strong souls. They are far beyond ordinary people, and even all abilities that affect the human mind may not be useful.
What's more, most of the abilities of the heart-teller are one-on-one, but according to Edward's observation, those apostles of the Astral Realm basically appear with Elena Ariele, and there is little chance of being alone.
.If ordinary attacks cannot find enough ways to attract all minions, Edward will eventually face the situation of one against many, at least it is possible. Therefore, the means of fighting can only be based on a few abilities that are not easy to be immune.
Work hard.
In this way, the power that can be used will be greatly reduced... Level 4 superpowers alone are definitely not enough to deal with.
In addition, what worried Edward even more was that behind them was a god of dawn.
If it is just a few god servants, then things are still easy to deal with. Assassination, division, and defeat each one. There are many ways to gradually weaken them. However, this sun god is one of the main gods on the continent. It is an indecently powerful existence. The power of the divine power.
Deep, numerous divine characters, and many of the Seraphic Gods under his command are so numerous that they cannot count. In terms of resources that can be called, even if several countries on the mainland have not officially promoted it to a national religion, they are not treated in various places.
The number of temples really makes them play an important role in some things.
The priests can help the suffering, and the paladins' behavior is well-known. They are representatives of justice and kindness and will never commit crimes. No matter what kind of trouble it is, they can ask them for help free of charge. Such a person
Of course, everyone loves it, so except for the evil land occupied by dragons and orcs in the Central Mountains, the temple of this god is almost everywhere where humans gather.
Therefore, if you are an enemy, you will surely gather a group, or even a large group of various opponents, anytime, anywhere. It is not impossible to attack them without any preparation, but it is not easy. The biggest possibility is that you are besieged by others.
Therefore, he must be fully prepared.
Edward sighed.
When mutual abilities do not exceed a certain range, the number of people is one of the most important advantages and disadvantages of the battle. An ordinary person, even if he holds a weapon in both hands, only launches three or five attacks in one breath, and
It is not guaranteed that every attack can accurately cause damage. Ten people can attack ten positions at a target at the same time and block almost all directions of action, which is impossible for a person to no avail.
To resist, therefore, the army always has an advantage over the singles.
But nothing is absolute, especially when some originally fixed rules become tweakable.
The weapons of war become more powerful, and the advantage of the number of people will be infinitely weakened. A skilled sniper can fight ten or even dozens of people in a battle. If a few people start a tank, they may be destroyed.
In a village, several planes can turn a small city into scorched earth, while a mushroom bomb or even a thermonuclear mushroom...that is hundreds of thousands or even millions of damage.
And in the magic world, such changes will be even more obvious.
There is still a little left in psychic energy. Should I do it again?
He thought.
But it was probably meaningless - since that time, he had tried to use it again, but unfortunately he could no longer contact the familiar soul. Obviously, she had been protected by some kind of magic, which made him feel a little bit
Regret. But I don’t regret it either - if I hadn’t taken action before, Elena might have been injured by the red dragon...
"Lord, the first batch of finished products have been made, please check it out."
After walking out of the temporarily opened practice place. Old Hans ran up carefully and held the things in his hand in front of Edward.
"Okay, let them keep working hard. In addition, you should pay attention to these things that cannot be touched by water and fire. They can easily be damaged, so let them be careful."
"Of course, of course," the old man nodded, "But Lord Lord, your stories are really mad... so interesting. The minstrels told you a few passages, and now even those men
And the old ladies want to learn to recognize words..."
Edward pulled the corners of his mouth and flipped through the books casually.
In fact, instead of calling it a book, it is better to ask her to bind an ordinary plain booklet. Apart from the title and signature, there is not even any unnecessary decoration - but after cutting the edges, then burning it with gold foil and printing it
If you are lace or something, you should be able to become more advanced if you look good.
As for the content, it goes without saying. At the beginning, he originally planned to use wood engravings. There might be some blurry images and immature troubles, but now it is obviously not necessary - with the help of magical skills, use steel plates to make
Easy, and with the help of magic, this kind of thing does not need to be forged. No matter whether it is hot or cold, or whether the characters are clear or not, it is not a problem. It takes a lot of energy to make the plate. However, it is used as a training for mental power.
Not bad, too.
This time I made a letter-printed book. As for the content, Edward naturally had no interest in making theories about magic - although that would make a lot of money, judging by the degree of importance the kingdom attaches to magic, if it is true
If you do that, I am afraid that the distinguished guest will come in a few days - the mage of the academy is not the city guard, and the eyes can be covered by gold coins.
So the first batch of books were mostly legends, poems of bards, etc. In this era without any electrical appliances, this kind of thing was undoubtedly the first choice to pass the time, among those ladies and noble ladies who read and read literacy
No worries about no sales...
As for what it looks good? This is not flattering to the old blacksmith. After all, the main compilation of these stories is Edward himself.
At the beginning, he only prepared some ordinary legends. But Edward, who was responsible for making the plate, immediately scoffed at those third-rate works with poor writing and simply revised a few of them himself.
The ordinary legends in this world are nothing more than knights or princes killing evil dragons or magicians, saving beautiful princesses, etc. Even if the characters are different, they are just things that change the soup and not the medicine. However, this routine is
Edward would never use it here. He prefers unruly and even the same elements can create some different tricks - such as the lingering love between the princess and the demon king, the lingering love between the princess or knights and the dragon, and being a princess
Captured by the evil mage, the knights were unable to arrive in time...
Well, in short, if we talk about legendary stories, how could those minstrels in this era who make a living by oral singing books, and who may even be illiterate, be born with him in the era of popular education and growing up in the era of knowledge explosion
Soul Traveler Comparison?
As long as this kind of thing is operated well, it will be a continuous source of wealth and can even have some wonderful publicity effects?
A subtle, evil smile came out of the corner of Edward's mouth.
However, before issuing, it seems that you have to find a safe backing first. Otherwise, you may have to be banned in this ** plane in a few days.
"Edward!"
Some strange ideas were interrupted by the cheerful cry, and the half-elf lady jumped and ran: "My father's recent batch of goods has been shipped, there is honey in it. I'm going to pickle some fruits, you
What do you like to eat? Apples? Or grapes?”
“…Pickled fruit?”
"Pickled with honey, by the way, besides apples, pears pickled with honey are also delicious. Others... I think... By the way, although it is rare, there are also pickled peaches. I know one
Ancient secret recipe: Cut the peaches into thin slices and stuff them into the bucket. Add some figs and almonds from time to time in the middle. After stuffing the entire bucket, pour a lot of honey from it, and finally put a little slices of ginger to add
Pickled. After about two months, it is the best time. The sweetness is even agreed to prohibit pickling in the church. I heard that this is a secret recipe passed down by an ancient wolf god, and it is very long.
It was something used as a tribute for a while."
"Honey... fruit? That should be called candied fruit, what pickling is..." Edward pulled the corner of his mouth disdainfully: "Isn't it just dried honey fruit? As for asking for the gods? If you can eat Lindt, Hagen
Das, Godeva…isn’t it going to be a world war?”
"What are what, it sounds amazing? Is it difficult to do? Let's try it now..."
"You are really a foodie country..."
"Oh, by the way, there is a letter from you in Edward." While Edward was thinking about whether he should write a recipe to promote it, the little girl suddenly thought of something and slapped her forehead: "This, there is
What about your letter? It was just sent by a guy who claimed to be a commissar."
"Hisser Edward" Edward reached out to take the thing in the little girl's hand, frowned in confusion, and read out the rough handwriting under the sheepskin cover... "Derick Blake?"
