"The layer of faint blue light on your body is my spiritual energy. Its function is to block the contact between your soul and the world. However, this layer of spiritual energy will continue to be consumed, so before the phylactery is made,
You cannot leave the confines of this house."
"By the way, sunlight is also harmful to the soul. Try not to be exposed to it, as it will accelerate the decomposition of your soul."
Xiao Ming nodded, "Then what should I do with this body of mine?"
"I will put it away for you first. Did you see those containers next to it? The liquid inside is specially prepared by me. It can keep the freshness of the body, prevent decay, and repair the body to a certain extent. In a moment, your
The body will also be soaked in it."
"Oh?" Xiao Ming, who had just woken up, didn't have time to look at the room, so he looked in the direction Alsace pointed. There were corpses with various expressions soaked in the light blue solution, but they were all the same.
Naked, "Tsk, tsk, Senior Alsace, why do I feel like I have fallen into a wolf's den? You are not someone who likes to do strange things to corpses, are you?"
"What's weird?" Alsace didn't react to Xiao Ming's subtle ridicule for a moment, but after seeing Xiao Ming's obscene smile, Alsace became angry! "That's enough, you!! Anyway~~"
"Pfft~" Xiao Ming's laughter interrupted Alsace, "Senior, your way of expressing anger is too simple! How come you can't even curse!"
"Huh~~" Alsace took a deep breath, "Forget it, I'm not as experienced as a little brat like you. You stay here now, I'll go to my other residence to get the materials for making a phylactery, remember
Stay, don’t leave this house!”
"Yeah," Xiao Ming nodded, "You can go with peace of mind!"
The blue light flashed, and Alsace disappeared out of thin air. Xiao Ming slowly narrowed his eyes, "After the observation, under the malicious provocation, the soul fire had almost no fluctuations. It was subjectively believed that there was no life and no hidden malice.
Surprisingly, he is a good person..."
Xiao Ming wandered around this big villa bored by himself. There were two floors in the villa, but surprisingly there was no division between them. There was one room on the second floor and one room on the first floor. "I just can't complain, and I don't know."
Who built this house? There are no load-bearing columns in such a house. Are all the houses in other worlds of such high quality?"
Although the doors and windows of the villa are closed and the curtains are drawn tightly, there is still a little light coming through.
"It seems it's daytime now," Xiao Ming floated to the window and reached out to pull up a corner of the curtain to see what it was like outside. But his hand passed through without any accident, "Um, I almost forgot.
, I am now a soul.”
There was another burst of dazzling blue light. Xiao Ming turned around and saw Alsace coming back with a box in his arms with a depressed look on his face, as if he owed someone a lot of money.
"What's wrong? Senior?"
"Ah, no...it's okay~"
"Senior, are you going to borrow money to make a phylactery for me?"
"Nonsense, that was me~" Alsace suddenly felt like he had closed his mouth, and then said seriously, "Okay, let's start making the phylactery quickly to avoid any accidents."
"The ability to change the subject is really..." Xiao Ming clicked his tongue.
"That's enough! I'll do whatever it takes~~"
"Pfft~~"
"Hey," Arthas was helpless. He found that he had lived for thousands of years and lost the fight to a brat.
With a wave of his hand, Xiao Ming's body floated and slowly landed into an empty container. Then a pipe floated down from the roof and began to inject the light blue liquid into the container. When it happened to be empty,
After passing Xiao Ming's head, the pipe floated back to the roof.
"It's really fully automatic. Senior is so awesome! What is this light blue liquid made of? Is it expensive? What's going on with the bubbles on the wound on your neck?"
"I bet you were killed because you talked too much!" Arthas muttered unbearably, and then placed the box on the stone platform. After opening it, Xiao Ming saw that inside
It's a variety of stones, metals, and a bottle of unknown liquid.
"Boy, how did you die? Looking at your body, you have never learned any spells or received knight training," Arthas asked while carefully taking out the materials from the box.
"Oh, that's a long story," so Xiao Ming sorted it out and told Alsace what happened after he traveled through time. Of course, he still had some reservations, such as the glowing ring, not being afraid of hypnosis, etc.
, all passed with a vague sentence. It's not that he doesn't believe Alsace, but people are separated from each other, and sometimes it is better to say less words.
Arthas nodded slightly, "Indeed, it would be better to die than to be a slave. What do you want your phylactery to look like?"
"What? Isn't the phylactery a box?"
Faced with this question, Alsace patiently explained, "The phylactery is just a general term for the container that holds the soul, just like the box that holds life. But in fact, when making a phylactery, the appearance of the phylactery can be all kinds of weird."
Yes, there are even some lichs who make their own phylactery into an ordinary stone, and then throw it away in a deep mountain."
"Is this okay? Then he is not afraid of someone picking up the life box, or being trampled by a monster?"
"Crush it? The phylactery is much stronger than you think. Okay, tell me what kind of phylactery you want."
"What..." Xiao Ming floated to the pile of materials placed on the stone platform, and suddenly saw a coin-like thing among the many materials, but it looked like crystal.
"What's this?"
"This is the amethyst coin of the Elf Empire! It can be used as currency, but more often than not, it is used to make magic materials!"
"Is it expensive?"
"Of course, amethyst coins can be the currency with the strongest purchasing power in the world. Even if the Elf Empire disappears, it will not depreciate. The price of an amethyst coin is about 100 Char gold coins. If you use British gold coins, it will
There needs to be more.”
"Is 100 gold coins a lot?"
"A gold coin can provide a family with food and clothing for at least a month, what do you think?"
"So powerful? What is this thing made of?"
Aras grabbed the amethyst coin, "This is a naturally formed crystal in the fountain of life of the Elf Empire. It is cut and made into an amethyst coin!"
"I see. Is there any limit to the size of the phylactery?"
"No.. If you are happy, you can use a house as your life box. Of course, if it is discovered, others will be very happy when they demolish it."
"Then I have decided that my life box will look like this amethyst coin!"
"you sure?"
"Wouldn't it work?"
"That's not true, but let me make it clear to you first. The lich's phylactery cannot be replaced. In other words, you can only use an amethyst coin as a phylactery for the rest of your life!"
"That's it! I think I should be the first lich in the world to use amethyst coins as a phylactery."
"It's not that it should be, it's that it must be..."
After determining the shape of the phylactery, Alsace stopped talking and began to concentrate on making the phylactery. Xiao Ming was not a person who didn't know the rules. Knowing that he could not be disturbed at this time, he watched quietly from the side.
, although he basically can't understand anything...
Alsace concentrated on using a sharp knife as thick as a needle to leave criss-cross grooves on the amethyst coins. From time to time, he would dip the tip of the knife into some unknown liquid. If you observe with a magnifying glass, you will find that every time
The thickness and depth of a trace are all the same! When all the groove marks finally gathered in the center of the amethyst coin, Alsace nodded with satisfaction, blew gently, and removed the residue on the amethyst coin.
After blowing off the powder, I changed my knife and started digging a hole in the center of the amethyst coin.
The room is very quiet, Xiao Ming is the soul, and the lich does not need to breathe, so the room is really quiet. You can only hear the blade rotating on the amethyst coin and making a squeaking sound, as if the amethyst coin is screaming.
Alsace then melted another piece of mithril and infiltrated it into the previously carved grooves. Finally, the remaining mithril condensed into a ring-shaped flake on the edge of the previously buckled hole.
At this point, Xiao Ming roughly understood something. This mercury-like metal should function like a wire, and the thin lines engraved before should be the circuit board.
At this time, a light blue light emitted from a ring on Alsace's hand, and a transparent stone about the size of a soybean appeared on his hand! He gently set the small stone in the
He placed it on the hollow in the middle of the amethyst coin, and then the surrounding mithril wrapped the transparent crystal.
"Huh~~ It's finally done." Alsace stretched, "The next step is the most critical thing. Your soul must establish a connection with the phylactery. After success, the phylactery will become your body. You
He is a real lich! Come on! Let’s continue!”
"Wait a minute," Xiao Ming interrupted Alsace, "I said... Great Senior Lich King, an amethyst coin, counting 100 Char gold coins, is about less than a piece of mysterious metal the size of a little finger, but
I guess it might be mithril, and finally it’s an ugly broken stone. Add these together, even if you add in your old processing fee, isn’t fifty thousand gold coins a bit expensive?”
