On a candle in the center of the altar, the light from the flame revealed the image of a young and energetic sorceress.
"Dear Stigmata Sorcerers, is there anything I can help you with?"
With eyes like two crescent moons, the Inferno Lantern Sorceress asked with a smile. Her expression was gentle and kind, which made people feel good about her. She seemed to be the soul template of all intelligent mechanical marionettes.
"Take out the mission reward on the scroll."
The Mountain Barbarian threw the scroll over with his big hand. Red, yellow, and blue lights gathered in the hall. After a while, the stiff face of the Flaming Lamp Sorceress looked up again, revealing a smile.
"The authenticity of the mission scroll has been confirmed. The Philosopher's Stone has a total of 7500 grams, 1500 grams for each person. Do you confirm to receive it now?"
"Confirm."
A wave of illusory space and time fluctuated. Grimm's tri-colored eyes were slightly surprised. It turned out to be the use of the illusory space and time of the dimensional gap. In the use of the highest level of knowledge in the Sorcerers World, it really involved the dimensional gap.
The space fluctuated, and Little Eight appeared.
"Damn, this old bastard, he actually left the method of using the dimensional gap to the Holy Tower Book. Otherwise, how could this old guy have the ability to communicate with the dimensional gap, saying that Lord Ba shouldered the fate of the Sorcerers World, it's all bullsh * t!"
The appearance of Little Eight made everyone look over, especially her "presumptuous" words. The other three did not say anything, but the Multicolored Mechanical Stigmata Sorcerer snorted coldly.
"Who are you, how dare you speak rudely to the great First Wheel Celestial Sorcerer!"
"Grandpa Ba is the great Steel Emblem Myna of the Sorcerer World. Back then, when Grandpa Ba was all-powerful and unstoppable in the Sorcerer World, you weren't even born yet. What's wrong with me saying a few words about that old fellow?
Little Eight was thrown into the dimensional gap by Grimm.
"This is my soul partner, Eight Rainbow Nevis. Although the words are a little harsh, it is indeed a Steel Emblem Myna passed down from ancient times. The great First Wheel Celestial Sorcerer also knows about it. Don't be offended, I also can't do anything to this guy."
Saying so, Grimm took out his Philosopher's Stone and smiled apologetically at the others.
"In that case, I'll use this period of time to prepare. I'm not too familiar with the use of souls in the phylactery technique, hehe …"
After Grimm left, the awkwardness was alleviated a little.
"What do you think of this Tower of Annihilation's combat power?"
Flaming Sword suddenly asked. The pair of eyes under the metal helmet swept a glance at the three of them. Tenacious Dragon, who was perched on his shoulder, kept spitting out flames from its nostrils. It roared with laughter and said, "It's hard to say about that wizard, but that myna and parrot guy just now, he's not even enough to fill the gap between my teeth."
"Very strong. He should have learned the Self-Sealing Technique."
After Myriad Color Simulation replied in a low voice, its body gradually became transparent, merging with its surroundings and disappearing from everyone's perception.
"I'll also return first. With these Philosopher's Stones, the materials for a mechanical Wizard Tool that I've been planning for a long time are finally ready."
"Hmph, hahaha, of course, the stronger, the better. Crunch, crunch."
Chewing on the Philosopher's Stone, Mountain Barbarian also left alone.
"Hehehehe, don't underestimate any Elemental Sorcerer. The mask of this Tower of Annihilation is very oppressive, and the magic staff in his hand is also extraordinary."
Cataclysm Stigmata Sorcerer laughed in a low voice and also left the hall.
…
In the Stigmata Hall of the Void Fortress, Grimm took out the Stigmata Phylactery and the Philosopher's Stone and placed them on the experiment table.
Immediately after, the space on his shoulder distorted, and Little Eight came out from the Dimensional Gap. Without turning his head, Grimm said in a low voice, "How dare you talk about the living Celestial Sorcerer in front of the Mechanical Stigmata Sorcerer. Can't you think before you speak?"
After a pause, Grimm said in a muffled voice, "Now is not the time of peace. The civilization war is at a critical juncture, it's better to keep a low profile."
"Don't worry, I know, I know. Hmph, you don't know the dirty things between this old bastard and that bat."
After Little Eight flapped her wings, she also looked at the phylactery and the Philosopher's Stone on the experiment table. At this moment, Grimm took out the crystal ball, and the figure of Night Shadow Saatchi appeared.
"Tower of Annihilation Stigmata Sorcerer, I have entrusted the mission of finding Claudia to the Sea King Sacrificial Base."
"Hmm."
After responding, Grimm sighed and said, "Got it. You and Lu Lianman stay here and prepare for the mission in a month's time."
After the crystal ball communication was turned off, Grimm first picked up the phylactery and bowed his head in contemplation.
According to some books on the use of souls, the basic composition of the Phylactery Technique and the use of souls by the Sorcerer Tower's Mana Pool had some similarities.
With the Phylactery Technique, although it would weaken part of the soul, it was equivalent to having a second life, and could be reborn once at the location of the phylactery.
However!
There was a price to pay for using this technique, and the biggest price was the phylactery itself. If something happened to the phylactery, the caster would die without a doubt. Moreover, after the phylactery was reborn, there were inevitable drawbacks.
How could there be an absolutely safe place in the Endless World?
After hesitating for a long time, Grimm finally put down the phylactery again, shook his head, and put it away.
"What is this?"
Little Eight looked at the pink crystal on the experiment table and asked Grimm.
"The Philosopher's Stone."
Grimm's answer shocked Little Eight. She was shocked beyond belief.
"The Philosopher's Stone? Damn, the Sorcerer World already has this thing!?"
"It's just named the Philosopher's Stone. As for whether it is the same as the legendary Philosopher's Stone in alchemy, it's hard to say. After all, according to the legend of alchemy, the Philosopher's Stone is something that breaks the balance of the laws of alchemy. It's the equivalent of time. When low-value materials of the same element are added to the Philosopher's Stone, they can be made into high-value materials of the same element. If this is really the Philosopher's Stone … "
After condensing an ice cube, Grimm took out a silver coin and a lead core and separated a small piece from the pink crystal.
According to the alchemy elemental table, these three materials were materials of the same element as mithril. If the Philosopher's Stone was added, mithril should appear!
* Hum! *
"Hiss …"
The strange waves shocked Grimm under the Mask of Truth.
This pink crystal actually mobilized the laws of the world. That was the World Eye of the Mask of Truth. The unknown rune system on the surface of the World Scroll had some unknown waves, and it was these runes that formed everything in the Endless World.
And now, these pink crystals could slightly change these runes. It was really unbelievable. No wonder the Sorcerer World named it the Philosopher's Stone.
"Wow, it actually, actually turned into mithril!"
Little Eight pointed at the piece of mithril on the experiment table with her wings and shouted at the top of her lungs.
Grimm's breathing was slightly hurried. He suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a soul fragment. There was an insignificant trace of consciousness inside. It was the trace of soul that Grimm had tried his best to collect before Lafite's death.
Impatient, Grimm moved closer to the Philosopher's Stone, his tricolor eyes focused on it.
After a long time, there was no reaction.
