Chapter 470: Legendary Mage of Necromancy: Promote cowpox to me, now, immediately!
Archmage Edgar went to see His Excellency the Immortal with his thesis in hand.
Every necromancer, unless he was inexplicably tricked into the academy during his time at the academy, has a sad past behind him. Archmage Edgar will always remember that when he was less than ten years old, a war swept the entire county.
During the great plague, nine out of ten houses were empty.
His most gentle mother, and his most well-behaved and lovely sister all fell into the plague and never woke up. The next year, his father married a new wife, and then he was sent to Nepal.
Weiss City, and never returned to my hometown again.
Although the plague was not smallpox, even if one more plague could be contained...
Archmage Edgar decided to take the path of a teacher. Although he was not a great disciple among His Excellency the Immortal, and he was only a 12th-level mage, it was not difficult to meet the teacher.
Moreover, this paper was written by a child that the teacher pays attention to...
"coming?"
His Excellency the Immortal was floating in the air, his black robe rolled up, and the paper in Edgar's hand floated over:
"This paper was written by Little Gretel? You think it's very interesting?"
"Yes, teacher." Archmage Edgar stood with his hands down. He removed the binding on the paper with great experience. The black robe, which seemed to be ethereal and real, as if it was condensed with energy, shook again, and a page of the paper was revealed.
The page spreads out and hovers, as if an invisible whiteboard is pasted on it.
"emmmm..."
There was a faint red light in the skull's eyes, and he scanned ten lines with one glance. Halfway through the scan, he suddenly paused and slowly started reading from the beginning again. After reading two pages, he seemed to have thought of something, and the black robe was shocked again:
"Edgar, look at this. What our little friend has made is really noisy."
A roll of parchment fluttered towards me. It was almost in front of me, but suddenly it sank. Archmage Edgar hurriedly caught it, unfolded it, and pulled it down, down, and down while looking at it...
This roll of parchment seemed to be inexhaustible and could never be finished. Archmage Edgar had no intention of paying attention to this. He was completely absorbed by the information on the paper:
At the same time that Gretel's paper on infrared and ultraviolet rays was published, the Parliament made some moves and spread the paper to the territory controlled by the Glorious Holy See.
The Carolingian Kingdom, the Rhine Kingdom, territories directly under the Holy See. Large and small churches, lords' mansions, the newspaper I received that morning, when you open the second page of the inside page, you can see the headline printed in large letters
After sunlight is divided into seven colors, two other kinds of light can be found!
The information coming from the other side of the strait said respectfully:
"After the newspaper was published, the Carolingian Kingdom and the seven cathedrals guarding the Hall Strait were ringing with bells and white light continued for three days;"
"In the Kingdom of the Rhine, Archbishop Coranna was said to have suddenly fallen seriously ill and did not come out to preside over the next day's ceremony. Archbishop Trier announced that he would go into seclusion;"
"The Glory Holy City urgently held a purification ceremony, summoning all priests and above to pray day and night..."
Archmage Edgar smiled as he watched. Along the Hall Strait, seven cathedrals sit at seven nodes, echoing each other to form an unbreakable magic circle. When there are no external enemies, the holy power stored in the church is suddenly used,
Let’s just say they were in big trouble;
Based on the seven-color holy light of the Glorious Religion, the Kingdom of Rhine promulgated the "Golden Edict", confirming the system of electing a king by seven lords. Three of the seven lords were archbishops of the church. At this time, they were dismissed.
got two;
As for the Glory Holy City, hehe, the Purification Ceremony can certainly unite people's hearts and greatly increase the piety of the priests, but it is also a powerful medicine that consumes a lot of money!
During the purification ceremony, everyone from the pope to the lowest priests had to neither eat nor drink, and kneel down to pray. For seven consecutive days, all physical exertion was supported by the holy power.
After this wave is over, the Glory Holy City will have at least a month or two, so there is no need to expect big things to happen.
In order to give them a harsh blow, even if the parliament urgently withdraws a group of secret agents, the rest will enter a state of silence within a few years. All things considered, it will still be a profit.
"It seems that there are more than one or two people who have done experiments on itchy hands." Archmage Edgar raised his head from the information. Fortunately, the experiments in that paper were very simple and could basically be done with hands (measuring wavelengths)
Except for that part). He sneered:
"I don't know if this paper is published, the Church of Radiance God will not continue to change the doctrine... The last time they redefined the elements, they changed a version..."
"It is said that it is already being changed." His Excellency the Immortal replied with a straight face. Although his skull face was dull and meaningless, the two red lights in his eyes beat extra fast:
"Our spies within the church have received news. The latest version of the doctrine says that besides the seven-colored sunlight, the invisible light means that it belongs exclusively to the Lord of Glory and has unfathomable power. The seven-colored sunlight belongs to the human world and cannot be seen.
One of the rays of light belongs to heaven, and the other belongs to the underworld."
Archmage Edgar really wanted to say, thank you for their hard work. Every day, they follow the council's research, read papers, and do repeated experiments. This workload is greater than that of most magicians in the council!
When it comes to research that is particularly important and will shake the foundation of the doctrine, we have to rack our brains to change the new version of the doctrine to look like that.
Tsk, this is too difficult. It’s not like we can directly change the textbook. At worst, we have to admit that the previous findings were wrong, and now we have new results...
A sacred doctrine that represents the will of gods. One edition is revised today, one edition tomorrow, and three editions in a row within ten years. Does anyone still believe you? Moreover, the revision is based on the research of magicians...
"By the way, if you have time, go to Little Grete's place more often." His Excellency the Immortal suddenly ordered:
"After this paper is published in "Arcane", the guy from the Guanghui Sect will definitely want to kill Little Gretel. He doesn't like to stay in the mage tower, and there are no strong opponents in the research institute... You
If you go and take a look, you can always delay it for a while if you encounter it."
Archmage Edgar burst into tears. So my value is just to delay some time? Teacher, I am a high-level mage after all! Don’t you expect me to fight back and kill the invading enemies?
Despite all the slander, he respectfully agreed. After watching the Immortal Master finish reading the paper, he carefully asked:
"Teacher, Master Nordmark's paper... you see, if he applies to the review committee and hopes to be fully rolled out, should we support it?"
"Support?" The skull flew away with a "swish" and landed directly in front of him, with two red lights and his big eyes staring at him:
"No, we don't support it. We want to advocate it first! Edgar, you have to know that a weapon that can be fired and retracted is the weapon in our own hands!"
He suddenly floated back again. With a big turn, the black robe swirled up high, and the edges dispersed into black mist, occupying most of the study room:
"Vaccinate everyone with cowpox! Let everyone in the kingdom not have to be afraid of smallpox! As long as there is a plague that can be resisted by humans, their 'plague angel' prophecy of world destruction will be self-defeating! What kind of plague is it?
The punishment of gods on humans, hum!"
As for eliminating the impact of smallpox, will it have any harm to the undead faction...
Does the Necromancy School still lack plague?
There are seventy-eight kinds of naturally occurring, non-magical plagues, and seventy or eighty kinds of non-naturally occurring, magically cultivated plagues. Those that infect humans, those that infect animals, those that infect both humans and animals...
It is a pity that plagues cultivated by magic, in terms of cost, spreadability, lethality, and comprehensive evaluation from various aspects, are still unable to defeat those that occur naturally. For example, the Black Death, such as cholera, this kind of massacre that kills every room in the house.
The cost of the imitations made from Black Crow Swamp has never come down.
Otherwise, the Immortal would have led a group of necromancers to the Holy See to avenge his teacher!
That is to say, there is some hope in the near future. After little Gretel made the "plague seeds", at least five or six high-level mages, with their disciples and disciples, were tossing these seeds with magic. From this point of view, Gretel Nordmark
, what a natural necromancer...
The Immortal Lord was both excited and regretful. Even though his body had turned into a skeleton, he still couldn't help but sigh:
"Edgar, tell me, why does this child refuse to enter the Black Crow Swamp? If he is willing to come in, I will ensure that he becomes a legend within fifty years. The title [Lord of Plague] is prepared for him!
"
Archmage Edgar bowed his head silently. On the issue of the plague, the Church of the Lord of Radiance and Black Crow Swamp had been at loggerheads for more than seven or eight hundred years.
Black Crow Swamp stated that the plague is the weapon of the necromancer; the Church of the Lord of Radiance stated that the plague is God’s power to punish mankind, and Black Crow Swamp has stolen God’s authority...
Well, by the way, on this issue, all magicians share the same enemy. According to the Church of the Lord of Radiance, every magician has stolen the power of God.
For example, in the Evocation faction, the power of thunder and lightning has always been a symbol of divine punishment. Therefore, the Lord of Thunder is also a thorn in the side of the Glorious Holy See, ranking second on the purification list, only behind the President of the Council...
The Immortal was scurrying back and forth in the study. I don’t know what he was thinking of, but the speed was getting faster and faster, and the black robe had become a shadow.
That is to say, he has turned into a semi-lich, and only a skull and a small section of spine are left in his body, so that he can fly like this. After running for a while, he suddenly faced the Archmage Edgar again:
"You! Go to Grom! Let the judges work quickly! Promote this, what is it called, cowpox! As soon as possible!"
"this……"
"What?"
"Should we inform the Lord of Thunder? After all, we are his disciples..."
The skull braked instantly. After standing still for a while, the black robe shook, rolled up each spread paper, and floated out. After a while, it floated back again:
"What are you doing standing still? Why don't you hurry up and catch up!"
