Chapter 44 Chat Magic
In the past two days, Frederick took out a few wheat seeds to study them whenever he had time.
When he left Lizi Village, he asked for a handful of strengthened wheat seeds. He observed them carefully and even bit a few of them.
However, he has never been able to discover any difference between these wheat species and ordinary wheat species. The two are mixed together and cannot be distinguished at all, until he met an expert.
At this time he was in a place called Oak Village, where the headquarters of the excavated canal was located.
There are civil engineering guys at Weisenberg University. Based on Frederick's survey and design, they optimized the direction of the canal, shortened the length of the canal from 16 kilometers to less than 10 kilometers, and built a dedicated commercial city in Oak Village. .
Although the distance is shorter, there are still a few hills to dig, so the overall project volume has not changed much.
The craftsmen and workers from the Nuremberg City Masons' Guild began to arrive one after another after receiving a 30% advance payment. This time Frederick came to have a meeting with their great craftsman Edward to discuss construction matters.
The civil engineering guys from Weissenburg University are also working here, currently led by Vice President Manuai.
As soon as the necromancer saw the wheat seeds in Frederick's hand, he asked: "Principal, where did you find these wheats with such strong vitality?"
"Oh?" Frederick asked him in surprise, "Can you tell?"
Manuel sat down on a chair nearby, took the wheat seeds from Frederick, and looked at After looking at it, he said: "We necromancers are evil people who can control life force, so we are particularly sensitive to it, just like a drunkard can smell which kind of wine is stronger, and a rider can tell which horse is better at a glance."
Frederick hadn't talked to him about necromancy yet, so he took advantage of some time before leaving the project meeting and asked: "I heard that you can also manipulate corpses?"
Manuel said: "Yes, but it must be a corpse that has just died a few days ago and still has muscles."
"The necromancy magic that manipulates corpses uses a simulated life force to give the corpse a false sense of Our life is like a puppet in our hands.”
"Because of this, we are devils in the eyes of civilians, and some people will make us important players in the conspiracy."
"For example, someone poisoned his father and asked the necromancer to manipulate the body like Just like a living person, declare that all your property will be given to the murderer."
"There are some more disgusting things, you will know when you grow up."
"We still appear on the battlefield. Go up and let the dead soldiers die a few more times."
"When there was civil strife in Constantbul, a warlord asked us to hand over all the women in the university and library to his army for destruction. .”
"We said we would let him and the officers come in first to select, and then poison them all to death at the banquet."
"Later, I manipulated the warlord's body and ordered the way to the port, but midway After being discovered, our behavior was different from the past. We had just retreated halfway, so we fought a battle."
"At that time, all the senior officers of the army were dead, and I let the dead soldiers go. We stood up again to scare them away, and finally we all escaped to the boat and left Constantbulo.”
After hearing this, Frederick understood, but there was another question: “Hey, it’s not about the necromancer. Can you control skeletons?"
Manuai shook his head and said: "Those are necromancers. Their professional direction is virtual souls. The golem puppet control core studied by Ogilvy was developed from them. ”
"In our eyes, the Necromancer and the Golem Puppet Master are actually different branches of the same magic system, both with virtual souls as the core. However, the Necromancer uses magic element muscles to control the bones, while the Golem Puppet Master is Make your own magical muscles and metal skeletons."
"But you can't say this to All Might. They hate being compared to the necromancer."
Frederick understood. It’s amazing to think about the magical world.
He pointed at the wheat seeds and said: "These are the seeds that have been strengthened by Matthias. It is said to increase the yield."
Manua suddenly realized it and said: "That's it, no wonder, He also asked me about vitality before. ”
Frederick asked curiously: "So, the seeds are filled with the false vitality of necromancy?"
"No." Manuel shook his head, "The vitality of these wheats is Really, I think he used some method to increase the vitality and make it more active."
"This kind of wheat is more lively and durable than ordinary wheat, and there is no problem in increasing the yield."< br>
“He is really a genius. This kind of thing only exists in theory, but he can actually achieve it through external control.”
“Theoretically, if this method can be used on people It can make people live forever. ”
Frederick was frightened by this magic that could change his destiny. He wanted to ask Matthias if his QQ number was 337845818. "But this is only theoretical." Manuel shrugged and returned the wheat seeds to Frederick. "The human body is like a colander, and the vitality is like water. As the body ages, there are more and more holes, and the water leaks more and more. Fast, no amount of vitality is enough in the end.”
“There is no conclusion yet on how vitality affects the body. The only consensus is that false vitality that exceeds the endurance limit of the human body will cause body variation.”
“Another very important point is that there has been no conclusion in the past whether strengthening is controllable.”
“My teacher’s teacher once tried to use false vitality to strengthen his own vitality. He spent a lot of time A lot of time was spent perfecting the theory, and then... the sphincter became like a wing."
"My teacher used a chicken to do an experiment, and the chicken grew six wings and died soon after."
"I don't dare to follow their path anymore, and they won't let me students are involved in this field."
"Compared with humans and other animals, plants are much simpler and more tolerant of mutations."
"Matthias cultivated them before. The plants are invisible and have been laughed at for a long time. Now they should have found the pattern from countless failures."
"From my understanding, he has limitedly strengthened the ear-bearing part of the wheat, probably the root system. Also strengthened.”
Frederick entered a state of unconsciousness and did not understand the principle for a while. He just regarded it as the same as space radiation breeding.
“I’m very strange.” He had a new question pop up, “This magic is so powerful, why does the scene look ordinary?”
Manuel smiled. I got up and thought to myself, this is the way a child should think. The more gorgeous the magic, the more powerful it is.
"Magic cannot be judged by appearances." As he said this, he raised his right hand. After a few breaths, a black ball the size of a table tennis ball appeared above his hand.
This black ball has no reflection at all, like charcoal, and looks ordinary.
He smiled and asked Frederick: "What do you think of this magic?"
Frederick looked left and right, but didn't see anything special.
"Isn't this magic powerful?" he asked.
Manuai did not answer, but raised his left hand, and also condensed an identical black ball that looked ordinary, and then said: "Which one of these two magics do you think can kill at once?" Kill you?"
Frederick's expression suddenly became serious. He looked left and right, but he couldn't find the difference between the two magic black balls.
In the end, he could only shake his head and said: "I can't tell the difference."
Manuel motioned for Frederick to go outside with him.
They came to the outside of the village and found two big trees to be cut down within the red line of the canal. Manuel did nothing. The two black balls flew towards the tree trunks, getting bigger and bigger on the way.
When the tree trunk, which can only be hugged by two or three people, comes into contact with the black magic ball with a diameter of one meter, it is like an ice cube encountering hot water, corroding and disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The corners of Frederick's mouth twitched and he meowed. Both of them could kill him.
Then he and Manuel ran away, and the tree fell towards them.
After running to a safe place, two more magic black balls appeared in Manuel's hands. Frederick observed carefully and found the same as before.
Then Frederick was confused and nothing happened at all.
On the way back to the village, Manuel said to Frederick: "The effect and power of a magic cannot just be judged by its appearance. Today's magicians will deliberately disguise powerful magic as simple magic. "
"If you make a mistake in magic combat, you will lose your character, so you must use every conceivable method."
"Extension from this, when magicians invent new magic, they will make some special designs on the appearance of the magic to prevent outsiders from seeing the magic circle circuit of the magic, but its interior is not ambiguous at all."
Frederick seemed suddenly enlightened, thinking that there was still such a way to say it.
