Even a child could see Ray's dissatisfaction and doubt about the wishing spell.
Sui Xiong couldn't help but ask, "The wishing spell is a well-known high-end spell. Even legendary mages may not be able to use it. Even if it was a lower level of Lesser Benediction, it usually required high-level mages or even legendary mages to cast it. Why do you look at them with disdain? "
Ray sighed and told Sui Xiong what he had experienced.
When Sui Xiong heard that he had won the "World's Strongest Warrior" medal, he couldn't help but laugh, "These people are really creative! Awesome! Awesome! Do you still have the medal? "
Ray was silent for a while and took out an old brass medal.
It could be seen that this medal had been played with for a long time. Countless times of rubbing had made the sharp edges smooth, and it had a warm light gold color. It looked quite a bit like the precipitation of time.
The workmanship of this medal was very ordinary. Perhaps the blacksmith who made it had put in a lot of effort, but if the skill was not good enough, everything would be in vain. For example, because of the poor quality of the material, its wear resistance was very poor. The words on the medal had already become blurred, and only some of them could be vaguely seen. As for the original patterns on the medal, most of them had been worn out and could not be seen clearly.
Steele only took one look at it before he lost interest in it. As a noble, she could be regarded as a small expert in jewelry appraisal. At a glance, she could see that this medal was indeed of poor quality. In a big city, it would only be enough to appear in a grocery stall selling souvenirs, and you could buy one with a few copper coins.
But Sui Xiong stared at the medal for a while, and then gently asked, "Do you regret making that wish?"
"Regret? Not really. " Ray shook his head and said, "I have done too many things in my life that are worth regretting. That thing is not worth mentioning."
"Since you don't really regret it, why are you so disgusted by the wishing spell? It doesn't make sense. "
Ray hesitated for a while, sighed deeply, and told Sui Xiong something else.
That was before he became a lone thief and explored the Western Wilderness as an adventurer.
At that time, he hid his identity and strength, and as a middle-level adventurer, he joined a quite famous adventurer team. The strength of this team was not very strong, but the atmosphere in the team was very good. The captain was kind and just, and everyone helped each other, which made him feel very satisfied.
Just like that, one or two years passed. One time, they came across a treasure map by chance. After going through a lot of hardships, they finally found the treasure.
That treasure was indeed satisfying. Everyone got a lot of good stuff. The enchanted leather armor he was wearing now came from that treasure.
Among the treasures, the most precious were the two Benediction Scrolls.
Surrounding these two scrolls that could grant one's wish, everyone was fighting over them. It was a complete mess — in fact, most of them were heckling. In the end, after discussing with everyone, the captain used one.
The wish he made was, "I want to live forever and never die."
"This wish is not very reliable." Sui Xiong said, "The wishing spell can't do this kind of thing."
Ray smiled bitterly and nodded. "You're right. After Captain made his wish, the space-time around him suddenly froze and imprisoned him inside. Then, he was sucked into a black hole that appeared out of nowhere. No one knows where he went."
"Being imprisoned like this, it seems that he is indeed immortal …" Sui Xiong shook his head and sighed. "Making a wrong wish often leads to such a result. After all, the will of a mortal is not enough to fight against the correction of the world. It is not surprising that he was fooled and misinterpreted. "
Ray and the others were stunned. They wanted to save the captain, but they had no idea where to start. After a while, they were at their wit's end.
After losing their respected leader, the adventurer team quickly fell apart. Ray continued to adventure as a lone traveler, and the others also went their separate ways.
Not long after, Ray received a task to escort a caravan through the Orc Empire. It took him several months to go back and forth. When he returned to the Western Wilderness, he learned something like a bolt from the blue.
The matter of the Benediction Scroll was leaked, and the famous smuggling chamber of commerce "Iron Sand" found them. The companions in the team were found out one by one. They either betrayed or were killed. Finally, the captain's wife and children were all killed. Because before they disbanded, they left the last scroll to the captain's son.
"So the scroll was taken away?" Sui Xiong asked in a cold voice. "Later, you got the title of" Family Extermination "because of this?"
"Yes. I took out my savings and hired thieves to spread false news, so that the Iron Sand Chamber of Commerce would mistakenly think that other organizations were going to fight with them. Everyone retreated to the headquarters. And I carried my sword and killed my way through their door. "Ray said lightly, without joy or sorrow.
That battle was extremely tragic. The famous Iron Sand Chamber of Commerce disappeared, and the main members of the Chamber of Commerce were all killed by lightning. Except for a few lucky ones who had escaped, not even a chicken or a dog was spared. That was how the name "Extermination of the Chamber of Commerce" came about.
From that day onwards, he was no longer an adventurer, but a lone thief.
Ironically, when Ray killed his way to the room of the president of the Iron Sand Chamber of Commerce, he found that the president had made a secret room that was completely isolated from the outside world. He carefully activated the scroll and made a wish, saying, "I want endless wealth."
So Ray cut him down with his sword, conveniently sprinkled a handful of gold coins on him, and said, "If you have the ability to use it up, feel free to use it."
Then, he raised his spear and pierced through the guy's heart.
"Well done!" Sui Xiong praised. After thinking carefully, he said with a smile, "His wish seems to have come true. It seems that he really has' endless wealth '…"
"Yes, an inexhaustible amount of wealth." Ray laughed sarcastically. "After these several things, I have developed a strong vigilance and aversion to the 'Benediction Magic'. I always feel that this kind of thing is very unreliable, so I avoid it."
"This thing, the Benediction Magic, simply can't bring any good results. It's just bad, or even worse. "
Now, Sui Xiong completely understood where his aversion to the Benediction Magic came from. It was all a bloody lesson!
This was probably like Sui Xiong looking at a game friend of his who had the temperament of a 'crazy knife'. That friend once fought back when their team was being beaten by four to zero, and killed all five members of the opposing team by himself. He also once suddenly made a stupid move when the situation was very good, and ruined the victory that was almost in his hands … In general, most of the time he made a stupid move, and the situation of exploding his strength was very rare.
So they played games together for a few months. Poor Sui Xiong not only could not improve his competitive level, but also fell from the gold level to the silver level.
From then on, whenever that "crazy knife" asked him to team up, he always found various reasons to refuse.
… He was afraid of being tormented!
"But, the perfect wishing magic is different!" He said, "This magic will never have such a bad result!"
"The Benediction Magic is the same, what difference can there be?" Ray asked.
Sui Xiong was not happy, and explained loudly, "The Benediction Magic is the magic of mortals, and the perfect wishing magic is the magic of gods. These two are completely different! Different! "
"What's the difference?"
"The effect!"
"What's the difference in the effect?"
"The perfect wishing magic will not have a 'bad result'." Sui Xiong raised a tentacle, like a finger, to strengthen his persuasion. "If the wish does not get a good result, then this magic will automatically retreat, and return to the state where the wish was not made."
Of course, the perfect wishing magic could not really make "wishes come true," but as a magic of gods, it had a set of perfect error correction mechanism. Once the wish made could not be realized in a way that was beneficial to the person who made the wish, it would automatically cancel the wish, and let the person make a new wish.
Let's take "Suppose Ray made the wish 'I want to be the strongest warrior in the world' as an example. Suppose he used the perfect wishing magic, then he would get feedback," This wish cannot be realized, please modify it, or make a new wish. " The result was that he would not waste the precious wish, and could adjust it, such as' I want to be a warrior stronger than the dragon ', or' I want to be a warrior with divine power and speed ', and so on.
"In other words, the perfect wishing magic can ensure that a wish can be realized from the front – although the situation may not be perfect, it will definitely not cheat people. Right? "Ray pondered for a while and asked.
Sui Xiong smiled. "Yes, that's about it."
Ray was silent for a long time, and then patted Steele's shoulder. "Come on! Although I think the possibility of you turning into a pig is relatively high, maybe you will turn over a new leaf … A perfect wishing magic is worth doing your best! "
Although he did not know how many good deeds he had to accumulate in order to ignite all twelve flames in the blue ring, and how much gratitude he would get – presumably it would be an astronomical figure, but no matter what, at least this was a clear "wish"!
In this world, it was unknown how many strong people had wishes that they could not realize, and in the end, they died with regrets. No matter how much effort they made, how much risk they took, most of them could not realize their wishes.
The Legendary-mage who invented the Wishing Spell was a tragic example. She was originally a princess of a country, and when she was practicing magic, she learned that her hometown was destroyed by the flames of war, and her relatives and friends were all dead. In order to save her country, she spent more than a thousand years studying magic, and in the end, invented the wishing magic. But this magic was not able to achieve her goal – although her power was so strong that even the gods had to look sideways, the final result was that she only changed all the historical records, and only obtained "salvation" that only existed in the books.
The great mage died in endless regret, and her power and will shook the world, and in the end, she became a new god – the God of Regret. That was a god who lamented for those wishes that could not be realized, and coldly watched the people of the world gnawing on pain in sorrow.
A … terrifying Demon God.
No matter whether it was Ray or Sui Xiong, they did not know that the appearance of the perfect wishing magic was closely related to that Demon God – the one who invented this magic was the teacher of that Demon God, a great sage who was so strong that even the gods couldn't say no.
In order to redeem his disciple's soul, he spent hundreds of years, and in the end, he researched this magic.
In the end, the perfect wishing magic could not make up for the Demon God's regret, but it could make the people of the world feel less regret.
And now, as long as the lucky Steele worked hard and accumulated more good deeds, she could clearly realize a wish.
Of course … the premise was that she had to do enough good deeds.
After listening to these things, Steele opened her eyes wide, and dumbfoundedly looked at the blue ring on her right hand. She kept talking to herself, "The perfect wishing magic, wish … The perfect wishing magic, wish …"
As she spoke, her expression became strange, and at the same time, inside the red ring on the back of her left hand, one after another, flames started to burn continuously …
