"You're lying." Filo gritted his teeth and said, "As long as you're not blind, you can tell that Witch Night Butterfly's arm came from an official adept. Why didn't you try to find out where it came from? Aren't you worried that she has a powerful organization backing her and you'll go after her for no reason? "
In the southern wizarding region, transplanting organs from other wizards was not strictly forbidden. However, considering the potential consequences, such as being hunted down by the enemy's organization or family, as well as the curse of one's bloodline, there were not many cases of transplanting organs from other wizards.
Even if a wizard's organ was sold on the market, the seller would always indicate where it came from and let the buyer decide for themselves.
Therefore, Filo's first reaction after hearing No.03's words was that she was lying.
To Filo, it was unthinkable to acquire a powerful wizard's organ without trying to find out where it came from.
"I understand how you feel, Wizard Filo. But please don't underestimate the power of Sei Yihui. If you can think of it, so can Sei Yihui. The people from Lab No. 2 must have taken care of everything when they sold us the arm.
"We believe that Lab No. 2 can handle everything, so we didn't try to find out where the arm came from."
Number 03 calmly explained, but Filo still subconsciously shook his head.
"If you don't believe me, Wizard Filo, at least believe in the power of Word of Truth," No.03 said after a moment of silence.
Filo was someone involved in this, so it was normal for him to doubt No.03's words. Angor and Ness didn't have the same problem. After listening to No.03's explanation, they were more or less inclined to believe her.
Besides, No.03 didn't try to avoid using Word of Truth.
Of course, Word of Truth wasn't necessarily authoritative. There were ways to avoid it. They didn't know whether No.03 was lying or not based on the results of the spell. Judging from the details, as well as No.03's emotional fluctuations, they were pretty sure that she was telling the truth. There was no reason for No.03 to lie to them.
Also, Night Butterfly left about a hundred years ago, while No.03 and the others only came here about 40 years ago. It was reasonable that No.03 didn't know about Night Butterfly.
"What do you mean by 'special liquid'? How did you make the deal with Lab No. 2? "
No. 03 didn't hide anything and explained the situation to him.
The so-called special Origin Fluid meant that the corresponding Soul Equipment had a certain degree of growth. As the user's strength increased, this Soul Equipment could evolve and strengthen in the future through the injection of Origin Fluid.
In other words, this Soul Equipment could be considered as a tool that could evolve, but the prerequisite was to obtain more of the original liquid.
After explaining the solution, Number 03 answered the second question "Sunders" asked — how to trade.
Number 03 knew that Sunders wasn't asking about the trade, but how to make the trade across time and space.
The Western Continent's Adept World and the Southern Continent's Adept World were separated by an immeasurable amount of time and space. Without any special means, it would take at least a few decades for the two sides to come into contact.
"Although the teleportation arrays connecting the Southern Region to the other three Adept Worlds have been damaged, it doesn't mean that there's no way to connect them quickly."
Perhaps No.03 was stalling for time, or perhaps she simply wanted to prove her worth by popularizing science, so she listed out in detail a few methods that she knew of to quickly cross an immeasurable distance in space and time.
The first method was to use a special space passage as a transit point. The most typical one was the Abyssal Phase Gate, which could be used to quickly travel to the corresponding Abyssal Phase Planes of the four Adept Worlds, then transfer to the other Adept Worlds.
This method was mainstream. However, such special space passages were usually occupied by powerful beings, so it wasn't easy to use them. For example, each Phase Gate was under the control of a Demon God. Even if the wizards in the Southern Wizarding World knew that they could use a Phase Gate to go to another Adept World, they still didn't have the ability to face the Demon God directly.
The second method was to use the inter-realm teleportation arrays set up in certain worlds or planes. This was also the first method, but it was more troublesome because it required continuous transit. Sometimes, it was normal to have to transit dozens of times.
It would take less time than flying directly. However, it was also normal to be stuck in a certain world for several years due to some unlucky accidents.
This method was also mainstream, but it required a lot of luck and a detailed teleportation plan. After all, not every world could be teleported. More importantly, it required a lot of resources.
The third method was to use a concept world to transfer and arrive.
This kind of conceptual world wasn't a literal world, but a kind of special world that you didn't even know the edge of. It could encompass the Void, large and small planes, or even an even larger combination of space.
For example, the Dream Realm. As long as there was a need for life to dream, it would exist. It was called a world, but it actually contained countless homelands with dreams.
There was also the Soul Plane, which was the so-called Cazider World. As long as there was a spirit, it could spread without a source.
These two concept worlds were explained by Number 03. Angor added another world in his mind, the Nightmare Realm. The Nightmare Realm was similar.
According to No.03's explanation, because this kind of conceptual world theoretically covered countless worlds, as long as you found a way to locate the space-time in the conceptual world, you could transfer and descend.
"For example, in the Origin World, there is a type of person called 'Spirit Realm Walker'. They can use the Cazider World to quickly travel to other worlds … "
As soon as Number 03 finished speaking, he looked at Ness, whose eyes were already shining with a dazzling light.
Considering Ness's identity, Number 03 knew what he was thinking.
"Do you know how to become a Spirit Realm Walker?"
Number 03 furrowed his brows. "Spirit Realm Traveler sounds beautiful. However, I've received some information from the inner circle of the Kasai Legacy Association. Their Boundless Journeys are greatly restricted. But I don't know what the specific restrictions are. "
"That's normal. Nothing is perfect. You have to pay for what you get," said Ness. The one who spoke was Ness. In his opinion, no matter what restrictions there were for Spirit Realm Walkers, they were all in line with his thoughts.
"I don't know how to become a Spirit Realm Walker. But I do know that the Cazider World must have the answer. "
Ness nodded and thanked 03 solemnly. Disregarding everything else, this information was quite useful to him.
Angor waited until the conversation was over before he asked, "So, what method did you use to make the deal?"
Number 03 shook his head. "I don't know. We didn't do it directly. Instead, we did it through a group of merchants in the void."
"Void merchants?" This was the first time he heard of such a name.
Number 03 nodded. "As long as there is a need for profit, there will be such groups. This rule doesn't only apply to worlds. It applies to the void as well. There are many merchant groups in the void, many of which belong to non-human races. They have many secret portals. Some of them even know how to teleport, which is unknown to humans. "
Angor suddenly thought of the Void Travelers. That kind of extra-dimensional travel was a unique method of teleportation.
"That being said, Void caravans that could traverse immeasurable distances of space and time would only be able to communicate with those of the higher levels."
When we need them, we'll contact the Relics Association. The headquarters of the Rose Legacy Association will contact these void caravans according to our needs. "
"That witch's arm was brought here by the caravan entrusted by Lab No. 2."
"As for what method the Void Caravan used, I don't know."
Everyone nodded after listening to Number 03's explanation. Number 03's description of the Night Butterfly's arm was very detailed, and he also revealed a lot of information that the "natives" of the southern wizarding region did not know.
Number 03 also noticed that Angor's mood had calmed down, so she took the opportunity to offer her apology and compensation.
Instead of apologizing, Number 03 listed three types of compensation. According to her, Number 01 and Number 02 would agree to these three types of compensation when they returned.
First, they would compensate the supernatural organs that contained the Soul Gear.
For them, the Soul Gear itself was not important. What mattered was the research data. Though the value of many of these supernatural organs was unimaginable, as a massive organization that spanned across the four Adept Worlds, they had the means to continuously produce more Soul Equipment as long as they continued their research.
Number 03 also mentioned that the Night Butterfly's arm could also be used as compensation.
Second, Number 03 was willing to reveal information about an illusionary treasure. This was obviously for Sunders. After all, Sunders was the only one who could threaten her.
Third, the people from the lab would leave in a short time and would not return to the southern wizarding region unless necessary.
Rather than calling it compensation, it was more of a show of goodwill and a show of attitude.
But Angor believed that Number 03 did not leave because she was afraid of Sunders or Brute Cavern. Most likely, their research was almost finished.
Otherwise, Number 03 would not have left so quickly.
Angor did not make a decision right away. He was using Sunders' name to scare Number 03. If Number 03 saw through his bluff, the so-called compensation would be gone. Angor was quite interested in the compensation, but he still needed to get more information as soon as possible.
With that in mind, Angor controlled Sunders' illusion again and pretended to be unmoved. "We'll talk about that later. Let's continue our previous topic. "
Ness quickly added, "That's right. It's all talk now. To show our sincerity, let's talk more about your lab. I'm very interested in your lab and your experiments. "
Filo spoke up as well. "There's a strong seal on the door. I tried to check it out, but I can't break it in a short time."
Angor did not say anything. Instead, he controlled Sunders' illusion and looked at Number 03 quietly.
Number 03 lowered his head. "If you want to see the lab, I can take you there."
Ness and Filo both grew wary upon hearing Number 03's sudden words.
"You set up traps in the lab?" Filo asked while using his Word of Truth spell to cover the area.
Number 03 didn't seem to notice the spell at all. "There are some isolation mechanisms, but they can't trap wizards."
Word of Truth told them that Number 03 was telling the truth.
However, everyone still felt that something was wrong.
"Are you hiding something?"
Number 03 spoke in a flat tone. "Yes, but I can't tell you because it involves the oath. I'm not hiding anything outside the oath. "
Again, he was telling the truth.
However, they still didn't trust the lab. Even Filo didn't mention it again.
No one knew what the 'secret' was. If this secret could cause harm to an official Magus, then it would not be worth it.
Angor also noticed the change in Ness and Filo's attitude. Number 03's simple words already made them wary of the lab. It didn't matter if Number 03 was hiding something from them or not. It was clear that she wasn't as simple as she seemed.
"We can talk about that later," Angor said. "Let's talk about the other people in your lab first."
"What do you want to know?"
"Number 01, 02, and … 00."
"I can tell you about Number 01 and 02. But Number 00 … is restricted by the oath. I can't tell you."
Next, No.03 briefly explained the situation of No.01 and No.02 that she knew.
According to her, she didn't know much about them. They were both members of the Order, but they weren't close. They only gathered in Lab 4 because they received a mission from the Order. They didn't even talk to each other before this.
In the past few decades after coming to the southern region, due to the strategy of keeping a low profile, No.01 and No.02 didn't have too many battles. The only battles they had were against some sea monsters. It was basically impossible to understand their strength through these battles.
Therefore, what Number 03 knew was only the surface.
According to Number 03, Number 02 was a Shadow Wizard. She was proficient in the Shadow Element and rarely showed her true form in the laboratory. She was always a shadow hidden in the darkness.
His specialty was hiding and ambushing.
In terms of sneak attacks, No.03 admitted that he couldn't win against No.02.
As for Number 01, he was a Bloodline Wizard.
