Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Volantis was like a bright pearl at the end of the vast plain of the Rohn River. The night market was still brightly lit. The street vendors were yelling enthusiastically, and the pedestrians stopped to look at their favorite products.
Only a small number of Volantis people gathered at the intersection, pointing at the dim fire on the other side of the black wall, laughing and guessing which noble was so unlucky to have his house on fire.
The giant elephant moved forward slowly, and the castle on its back shook with every step. Bo Cheng sighed, "I wonder how they will react when they know the truth tomorrow."
"No matter how they react, it's useless. These people don't even have the right to vote." Danny shook her head and urged, "Tell me some taboos and common knowledge about necromancers."
"Let me ask you a question first. Do you know what a necromancer is?"
"Didn't you say that it's to study the mysteries of life and death?"
"No, studying the mysteries of life and death is ideal. In reality, every Necromancer has committed heinous crimes and should be executed. They should be beheaded and their bones ground to dust, "Bo Cheng said solemnly.
"Uh, what do you mean?"
Bo Cheng thought for a while and said, "I won't talk about playing with corpses, blood sacrifice, and summoning demons. Do you know how necromancers increase their magic power?"
"Meditation?"
"No, eating people. Babies are the best. Weird babies, like dwarf babies, are the best supplements. Wizard power is hard to come by, and the most common way for necromancers is to eat people! "
Bo Cheng looked at Danny coldly, as if she was the evil demon who ate dwarf babies.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Danny shrunk her neck and shouted, "You're the necromancer. You're the one who eats people."
"I don't eat people." Bo Cheng's expression softened a little, and he said slowly, "When I joined the Association of Necromancers, I swore in the name of my ancestors that I would never use evil means to practice witchcraft.
Of course, it's useless to just swear. I still have to take blood tests regularly.
If the amount of evil spirits in my blood exceeds the limit, my status as a prince will be useless. I will be immediately arrested, doused in wildfire, and burned to ashes. "
"You guys can even detect the Yin spirits in the blood?" Dani was truly shocked.
She had the ability to collect and bestow spirituality. She could also "see" spirituality in her sea of consciousness, but she could not detect the spirituality in her blood and body.
— Unless the blood was burned with fire.
Because of this, she was even more certain that the humans in this world were one with their spirit and body. Yes, spirit and body were interdependent.
"It was invented by the people of Valleglia …" Bo Cheng had a troubled look on his face. He gestured with his hands as if he didn't know how to describe the object. In the end, he asked directly, "Do you know about the Witch Lens?"
"What?!" Danny suddenly stood up, and her head hit the roof of the wooden fort with a bang. However, she was too excited and completely ignored the pain.
"The Witchcraft Lens can detect Yin spirits?"
"Why are you making such a fuss?" Bo Cheng was shocked.
Because I have a Witchcraft Lens at home. I was going to find a few blacksmiths in Kholor and have them melt it down to make armor.
"I thought the Wizard Lens could only observe large plant cells."
"Cells?"
"Oh, it's genes. Have you heard of genes?"
"I underestimated you." Bo Cheng looked at Danny in surprise and sighed. "Your knowledge is far beyond my imagination. In this era, the ancient knowledge of Valleglia has long been lost. I thought that other than the Association, no one else knew about the secrets of genes. "
Danny sat down cross-legged and fell into deep thought. When she returned, she had to study the books she stole from High Priest Orloss's house.
Valleglia's magic civilization and technology civilization were two completely different paths. She couldn't use the "I'm a modern scientific person" to look down on the "ancient people of magic."
"Observing genes and Yin spirits is only one of the many functions of the Witchcraft Lens." After a pause, Bo Cheng continued, "The people of Valleglia are very arrogant. Although they are unwilling to sell the Witchcraft Lens, they allow barbarian necromancers to work in the Sorcerer Tower as servants.
They work for the Sorcerers of Valleglia in exchange for the opportunity to use and research the Witchcraft Lens.
In the next two thousand years, countless barbarian necromancers rushed to Valleglia as servants and secretly learned their advanced technology.
Finally, in the 'Huazi Dynasty', when the Barbarian Empire was at its peak, after thousands of experiments, we invented our own Witchcraft Lens.
Although the Necromancer Association's equipment isn't as powerful as the Witchcraft Lens, it's enough to observe Yin spirits. "
Bo Cheng spoke passionately and passionately. It was as if he had returned to the glorious era when many heroes shed their blood for the prosperity of the country.
"Huazi Dynasty?" Danny didn't 'empathize' with him at all. With a strange expression, she asked, "The era when the Emperor of Eunuchs was in power?"
"Yes, that was when the Barbarian Empire was at its peak. They used up the last copper coin in the treasury and finally created the Witchcraft Lens before the Huazi Dynasty was destroyed." Bo Cheng sighed.
"So that's how it is. Such an awesome eunuch dynasty was actually destroyed by you Magi. But the Witchcraft Lens isn't an atomic bomb. It has no benefits for the country.
They even cut off Jiji to govern the country. What a price they paid!
It took them so much effort to become the second empire in the world, second only to Valleglia, but it was destroyed by a Witchcraft Lens.
No wonder the City of Knowledge invested hundreds of thousands of gold royals to research the Witchcraft Lens, but it didn't even make a splash. In the end, they even planned to scam the Mad King.
Fortunately, the Mad King was crazy enough to not be fooled by them. Otherwise … er, the Mad King's kingdom would still be destroyed. The several million gold royals that Tywin had helped him accumulate over the past few decades all went to that damned fatty Robert.
Sigh, it's better to invest in the City of Knowledge and research the Witchcraft Lens!
"How is it not beneficial for the country?" Bo Cheng glanced at her disdainfully and said, "Do you know about the Long Night?"
"You know about the Long Night too?" Danny asked curiously.
"The Long Night was caused by the bloody chaos in the Barbarian Empire. The bloody chaos was caused by the fallen necromancers — the king of necromancers, the Bloodstone Emperor.
At that time, the Barbarian Empire was still in its' Dawn Kingdom 'period. The real world's first empire, Valleglia, was still herding sheep on the hills! It can be said that the fallen necromancers destroyed the Barbarian Empire and almost ended the world. "
Yes, the Bloodstone Emperor was the last emperor of the Dawn Kingdom. At the same time, he was also a powerful necromancer.
In the legends of the Barbarian Empire, the Bloodstone Emperor used blood witchcraft and caused the world to enter the Long Night.
"So, the hero who dispelled the Long Night and saved the world was also you Barbarians, Barbarian Tarr?" Danny said coldly.
"What's so good about Yasore Yahai? Almost every race wants to own him? You're not Koreans. "
Bo Cheng didn't know what "Koreans" meant, but he knew that Danny was mocking him.
The Barbarian Prince's face turned red and shouted, "The history books of the Barbarian Empire are well preserved. It's written clearly in the books."
"Okay, let's say you're right. The Barbarian Empire has the Witchcraft Lens, which is beneficial for the study of necromancy. It can also prevent the birth of a devil like the Bloodstone Emperor.
But the prophecy also said that the next Long Night is coming soon. How do you explain this? "
"It's most likely that the red-robed priest is trying to mislead people. Or, the Huang Dynasty's descendant is the second Bloodstone Emperor."
Danny's mouth twitched. She didn't know what to say.
The Barbarian Bu Family was the first dynasty of the Azure Dynasty. Before the Azure Dynasty, there was the Huang Dynasty.
Now that the Azure Dynasty was entering the end of the dynasty, the Huang Dynasty's descendants took the opportunity to restore the country. The king was also a powerful wizard. He was called "the successful Murong Fu."
Now, Bo Cheng was slandering "Murong Fu" as the "Bloodstone Emperor" who caused the second Long Night.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense. I know what you mean. Necromancy is a taboo and must be treated with caution.
But I just want to know more about your theory of Yin Yang Spirit. I have no interest in witchcraft like eating people and blood sacrifice. "Danny waved her hand.
"Only do theoretical research?"
"Yes."
"You're not going to become a necromancer?"
"Yes."
Hearing her affirmative answer, Bo Cheng relaxed and said, "Don't mind me. I'm worried that you'll go astray and be blinded by power.
With your talent and wisdom, you have the potential to become the Bloodstone Emperor. If you really cause the Long Night, it'll be my fault. "
Danny stared at him with a wooden face.
Then, Bo Cheng began to talk endlessly about the origin of necromancy, its development, its final form, its current research field, and his expectations for the future.
He talked a lot and didn't stop until the Merchant's House. But it could be summarized in a few words: We barbarians want to live forever. After discovering Yin Yang Spirit, we started to study Yin Spirit. As a result, we formed the necromancer system and created the Bloodstone Emperor.
After destroying the Kingdom of Dawn and almost destroying the world, we became honest and didn't dare to study Yin Spirit anymore.
After the Long Night, we tried to separate Yin Yang Spirit for thousands of years. Valleglia's shepherds suddenly rose and invented the Witchcraft Lens. We were very jealous.
After thousands of years and the price of a dynasty's decline, we finally created the Witchcraft Lens. After that, it became possible to separate Yin Yang Spirit.
Since then, we tried to separate Yin Yang Spirit, extract it, and integrate it into our bodies to see if we can live forever.
After getting off the car, Bo Cheng asked for a room in the Merchant's House and asked Danny to wait there. He ran back to the Upper House and came back with a leather bag. He handed it to her and said, "This is for you."
Danny opened it and saw four or five books. She looked up and asked, "What do you mean?"
"To repay you for saving my life. One is' The Development of Necromancers', one is' Basic Incantations', one is' Chai Jin's Notes', one is' Bo Yi's Travels', and one is' Bo Cheng's Notes'. "
He looked serious and warned her, "You have to be careful when using 'Basic Incantations'. It's best if you only do research and don't learn them.
Don't spread the contents of these five books. Don't even let other wizards, especially wild necromancers, know that you have them. Otherwise, there will be endless trouble. "
Dani nodded and solemnly promised, "I am the only one who can read these books."
Bo Cheng explained in a gentle tone, "Chai Jin was the strongest necromancer in the Huang Dynasty. He broke the limit of his lifespan and lived for 150 years. If he didn't die in a harem fight, he might have lived for a few more decades.
Bo Yi was my ancestor. He went to Asia and even explored the Easternmost Land. He saw all kinds of extraordinary jobs and evil witchcraft.
My notes … Hmm, do you remember that I bought Lisbon's corpse? "
"Yes."
"I'm researching the relationship between Yang Spirit and witchcraft. You can take it and have a look."
After saying that, he got up and left.
Although their clothes were dried by body heat, they were still sticky.
