Chapter 282 Chat
[Alchemy is a magical, mysterious and charming art. It is different from those vulgar magics. It is precise, rigorous but extremely creative. There have been countless great masters for thousands of years. alchemists discovered or developed various new recipes or formulas , but no one can glimpse its full picture. Compared with those increasingly boring, dull, and stupid element sequences, alchemy can only bring us one puzzle after another, and with the help of some talented people, Unraveling them leads to more puzzles, and the cycle repeats endlessly.
Of course, it is difficult for most people to understand the joy of using scales and looking glasses, and not many people can understand how much wisdom is contained in those seemingly boring ingredient lists.
I hope more people can understand and love this art as much as I do. Maybe someone can brew happiness, synthesize wealth, or even... create death. Believe me, this is not complicated, after all. Most alchemists can learn how to make happiness potions (but most pharmacists cannot) , every high-level alchemist can transform stone into metal through rigorous experimental processes, and any alchemist apprentice may kill himself in various stupid attempts. This is a well-known fact, but...
Do not try to refine the human body under any circumstances, this is my only advice to you!
It is completely beyond description in words. It is the most horrific, cruel, despicable and vicious behavior in the world. It is not something that a person with a conscience can touch.
Keep this advice in mind!
This is absolutely intolerable, a sin more horrific than desecrating the souls of the dead.
——The 169th President of the Alchemist Association/Great Sage Neal Flames "The Book of Flames"]

[The first time human body refining appeared in front of the world was in 5230 of the Holy Calendar. It was a turbulent era. Daos Loper, a crazy alchemist who was born in the Principality of Selibul, used this method on an innocent elf woman. The latter was twisted into a mixture of metal, flesh, thorns and thick water. She lost her ability to think and everything we can think of. She could only feel the horrible and unspeakable pain. This is the undead demon. The conclusion fed back by the mentor Ms. Janaya when she sensed the former's soul, she said that she was unable to save the other party because the elf woman's soul was torn into countless parts during Daosluo's forcible refining, and each part was Bound in her current 'body', even 'destruction' in the conventional sense cannot save that poor person.
“It’s so terrible, I just don’t want to think about that feeling.” Ms. Janaya said to her friend while crying at a certain Wanderer hotel: “That girl turned into a terrible person. Everything about her is bound by every part of her body. She lives in every corner of her body. I can't tell you in detail, but... even if we 'kill' her, it won't help. Unless it is extremely thorough and eliminates all traces of her."
A month later, Pope Pamirs of the Church of Abundance used great magic to free the poor elf, and Daoslow was executed. , the General Association of Alchemists declared that 'refining the human body' is an absolute taboo. Anyone who violates it will be permanently removed from the list and will be regarded as the enemy of all intelligent creatures. Several neutral forces, including the United Holy Religion and the Magician's Guild, seconded the proposal. , various countries on the mainland also included it in the law at that time.
In the following hundreds of years, human body refining has never appeared in the public eye again, but until now, people's attitude towards it is still the same as before.
——"Eternal Evil: The Refining of the Human Body"]
...
[There is a lot of evidence that the notorious [Bloodborne Society] possesses the research manuscripts of Daos Loper during his lifetime, and dozens of large-scale vicious incidents occurred in the year 6153 of the Holy Calendar. There are also shadows of the 'human body refining' technique. Obviously, those lunatics with unknown purposes are extremely harmful, even as much as most cults or false gods. They are one of the strongest shadows entrenched on this continent, and The inhumane 'human body refining' seems to be one of their main methods of terror. Special attention needs to be paid here. The Bloodborne Society is very likely to master a large number of dark arts. They seem to be far more persistent in many research fields than others. , the great pharmacist Sharptooth Gray Claw and Silvermane Brighttail couple who disappeared ten years ago may be related to them. If the information is correct, it means that the blood source will still not be extinct today thousands of years later...< br>

......
"Oh, interesting~"
Mo Tan, who sneaked into the restricted book section of the large library in Salamoen Trade District, smiled and closed the copy of "Shadows in the Sun" in his hand, stretched out comfortably between two rows of old bookshelves, and then put his feet up The pile of old and new books beside him were all put into the bag, and he also took out a bottle of healing potion that was full of wine and took a sip: "This This world is really not boring at all, SUN, cults, false gods, beliefs, secret societies, human body training, haha, no matter which one it is, it seems to bring me endless fun, it’s great, It’s simply great!”
Mo Tan raised his glass to the air, and then put the bottle of therapeutic effect in his hand. The 'potion' that had been reduced to almost zero was poured into his mouth, and he chuckled softly: "Speaking of which, my luck is really good this time. I didn't expect that little girl Luna's human body refinement level to be able to do this. The extent of directly reshaping the body and organs is just too much consumption. If I had known better, I should have used some oil while she was weak. , by the way, let’s explore the system’s judgment rules for language induction. It’s really careless...”
Of course, only he would think of such a thing now. At this moment, Mo Tan also knew very well that when he After logging into the game with an absolutely neutral personality again, even if there was the same chance, I would not really do anything to Luna.
"Should you consider going to Misha County and pretending to be yourself to get more information?"
Mo Tan walked downstairs while talking to himself. He wore a dark blue robe, and his face turned into a dwarf old man who looked energetic. He also wore a single eye, which made him look wise and elegant.
A human girl standing guard outside lowered her head respectfully: "Mr. Curator, are you going back?"
"Well, thank you for your hard work, dear Bella." Mo Tan smiled and patted her He picked up the cloth bag on his waist, then turned and walked towards the hall, without looking back and said: "Don't tell others that I was here today. These few books are not suitable. If my wife knows, it will be over. "
The little girl nodded subconsciously, and then suddenly said in a daze: "But didn't your wife pass away three years ago?"
Mo Tan stopped and then turned around. He gave the girl a crazy and painful look: "No, she is still alive. I know she is still alive. I see her every day when I go home. She is always with me, but she doesn't speak, but I can see her. ...I can see..."
The little girl really couldn't shake her head under the other party's indescribable eyes, so she just lowered her head and remained silent with red eyes.
"Thank you..."
Mo Tan sighed, then walked away quickly with his short legs. As for how the real director of this library will be discussed in the future, It's not within his scope of consideration.
Ten minutes later
[Research on human body refining should be put aside for now, there are still a lot of things to do~]
Has returned to normal appearance Mo Tan hummed a little tune and walked into the Liuli Pavilion. However, he did not go to find Remilia who lived on the top floor as usual. Instead, he returned to his own room, where someone was already waiting for her.
"Welcome back, sir."
Ai Fanye, a priest of the Sun God Cult who was born in Pato City, immediately stood up from the sofa, stepped forward and took the robe from Mo Tan, and then carefully It is hung in the closet next to it, where there are a large number of clothes of different styles and styles, from the bard robes, travel cloaks, and leather armor suits that are most commonly worn by Motan, to complicated noble robes, low-level knight armor, and civilian attire. Everything you need.
"Thank you~" Mo Tan smiled slightly, then walked to the sofa and sat down. He held Baizhou in his hand and played with it while asking with a chuckle: "How is the progress?"
Xiao Ai took two plates of snacks from the cabinet next to him and placed them in front of Mo Tan. , shook his head uneasily: "It still feels a little difficult. Now I can barely cast the Yangyan Magic in a different way than before, but the effect is very poor and unstable..."
< br>"You've done a good job, sit down."
Mo Tan raised his eyebrows, then pointed to the position opposite him, picked up a biscuit and threw it into his mouth, and whistled frivolously: "This speed is much beyond my expectation, because you no longer have Did you believe in the Sun God that much before?"
"I'm sorry, I'm not sure..."
Xiao Ai shook his head hesitantly, then looked down at his palm. After a moment, Two rays of golden fire bloomed in her hands, beating tremblingly.
Mo Tan leaned up and looked at it carefully for a while, then laughed with interest: "Is this the magic of the Sun God System?"
"Yes, this is Yang Yan. , although it is a basic divine spell, if the caster is both pious and powerful... it will also exert strong power to heal one's own wounds or attack the enemy..." Xiao Ai stumbled to explain, and then He shook his head in frustration: "But I can only do lighting."
Mo Tan nodded slightly, then leaned back on the sofa thoughtfully and began to meditate. After a while, he smiled gently at Xiao Ai and said, "I heard that guy talk about your recent performance. Thank you for your hard work." The girl. He immediately stroked the hair on his shoulders nervously and used Li shook his head and said: "No... no, I'm honored to be able to help you, sir, but I'm just a little worried that I can't do it well... After all, I'm just a trainee priest from a small place, and I've barely experienced the grace and power of God. , if it is those powerful masters Sacrifice or..."
"If it is those powerful chief priests or something else~"
Mo Tan interrupted him with a chuckle, calmly Said: "It is absolutely impossible to do better than you , you may even be punished by God, you can give yourself more confidence."
"Huh?" Xiao Ai blinked in confusion, then lowered his head and whispered: "I don't understand, sir."
Mo Tan shook his finger: "I can't let you understand too much."
"It's okay, sir." Xiao Ai was not disappointed at all, and just nodded obediently: "I will follow any instructions you have. "
"Thank you~"
Mo Tan nodded lightly and did not continue the topic of loyalty, but asked a very strange question to Xiao Ai: " Do you think the Sun God Tisu is great?"
The little priest was a little confused, but after seeing that Mo Tan had no intention of explaining or guiding, he nodded slowly: "I think he is great."
"Very good, a very honest answer. I guess you have already seen that I have no respect for your gods."
Mo Tan snapped his fingers and then suppressed a smile. His tone became slightly more serious: "Next, I want to have a casual chat with you, but before that I need to ensure a few key points to avoid accidents~"
Xiao Ai subconsciously He sat upright and said: "Yeah!"
"First of all, you must maintain respect for the gods, especially Tisu, the sun god you believe in."
Mo Tan said this very naturally, which made the girl a little confused, and then Staring into Xiao Ai's eyes, he asked softly: "Secondly, I allow you to discuss and argue with me in the following process, but you are not allowed to remain silent out of respect for me or say something against your will when your views are contrary to yours." , understand?”
Xiao Ai blinked, his eyes full of curiosity: "Understood."
"Great, then...are you loyal to me?"
"Yes, I am loyal to you."
"Do you believe in me?"
"I..."
A trace of confusion flashed in Xiao Ai's eyes, and he shook his head slightly: "I don't know, I'm not sure if I believe in you."
"A very good answer, I believe you come from the heart~" Mo Tan He clapped his hands briskly, and then continued to ask: "So do you believe in the sun god Tisu?"
"Yes, I believe in my Lord."
"Are you loyal to him?" "
"I am loyal to him." Xiao Ai gave the answer almost without hesitation, but continued with a very serious expression in the next second: "But I am more loyal to you."
Mo Tan blew a frivolous kiss to Xiao Ai: "Because I saved you and Cole, avenged Lada, and left Lorna's soul?"
The girl nodded vigorously. : "Yes, you are right."
Mo Tan sped up the question: "Does it have anything to do with me being handsome?"
"Well, I think it doesn't matter."
"Then do you think I'm handsome?" Well, now this face.”
"I thought it was quite ordinary at first, but after a while, I thought it was quite handsome."
Xiao Ai answered honestly, fully complying with Mo Tan's previous request, and did not say anything against his will.
The latter was lying on the ground in the OTZ posture, somewhat injured, with black lines all over his head.
Xiao Ai was relieved at that time: "Um, sir, I..."
"Has your god helped you?"
"Ah...?"
"Has your god noticed you?"
"I..."
"Your god~" Mo Tan stood slowly Standing up, the corner of his mouth curled up with a smile of unknown meaning: "Is he really a 'god'?"
