Being stared at by Felipe, Lucien suddenly thought of something.
Both Viscount Carendia and Felipe were sure that Lucien was here to sabotage the Hand of Paleness. If Lucien did nothing and just watched until the end, Lucien would be very suspicious of Felipe. If Felipe could not help but take the risk to test Lucien, Lucien would be dead for sure, and he might even be refined into a strange undead creature.
Even if Felipe did not test Lucien but followed him secretly, Lucien still did not have the ability to get rid of Felipe. After all, a Knight who relied on his own senses and traces were not as versatile as a sorcerer or a priest of the same level.
Magic and divine arts might not necessarily have the offensive and defensive power of bloodline powers of the same rank, but they were far more mysterious and unpredictable. For example, the Book of Astrology and Elements had many tracking and scouting spells.
"Should I take the risk to 'sabotage' the plan?" Lucien did not want to wait for the end of the plan, but he had to control the extent of the sabotage. If Felipe was completely enraged, he would be killed. However, if the sabotage method was too simple and superficial, it would also arouse suspicion. The best choice is to let Felipe deal with his own 'destruction' and end the feast of death as the winner. "
"But what should I do? How should I control the extent of the sabotage?"
Lucien felt more and more like he was caught in a trap of his own making. He was used to taking risks and getting benefits, but now he was in trouble.
This was the experience and lesson that he needed to sum up if he was still alive.
When Lucien was thinking about how to sabotage Felipe, Ceci, as the strongest sorcerer in Wilfrid's territory, had to continue asking Felipe, "Mr. Felipe, because of the contract, I think it's up to you whether you want to go to the Headquarters of the Magic Council or not."
Ceci saw that the other necromancers nodded, and Felipe sneered, so he hurriedly added, "Of course, personally, I'm willing to follow you to the Headquarters of the Magic Council and join the Hand of Paleness. But before that, there's one more thing that I'd like to ask, is it possible to collect bodies openly in the countries near the Congress of Magic? "
Felipe smiled to Cessy, "Mr. Cessy, according to the agreement between the parliament and several kingdoms, you can't destroy the graveyard or kill the common people to get the bodies. You can only use money and temptation to sign an agreement to dispose of the bodies after death. Of course, the corpses of the enemies, magical creatures, and wild beasts you kill will belong to you. "
"If that's the case, I'm afraid our experiment will become more difficult unless the 'Hand of Paleness' can provide us with enough corpses." Ceci frowned. Naturally, senior-rank sorcerers who could go to different dimensions did not care about the local "human resources", but middle-rank sorcerers like Ceci, who wanted to become a big shot, relied on all kinds of rituals to improve themselves.
Tess, Quentin and the rest of them looked down at the sorcerers and apprentices, feeling the same emotions as their companions. No corpses, no human beings, and no powerful magic creatures. As the inheritors of ancient magic, they could not see the slightest possibility of improvement.
Seeing that all the sorcerers and apprentices were hesitating, and seeing that Lucien was still mysteriously silent, Felipe became a bit agitated and shouted,
"You can't imagine the progress of arcana and magic in the past hundreds of years! It's just like how you can't imagine how humans who don't die prematurely and don't have the pure energy of death and life, how can you hold a ritual and increase your strength!
"Let me tell you something. Ever since Mr. Vicente Miranda, the Lord of the Undead, solved part of the mysteries of the soul, he has found a way to purify the power of life and death, and he no longer needs the dead human beings.
"Also, after hundreds of years of collisions between the theory of spiritual waves and the theory of spiritual particles, more efficient advanced meditation methods have been created one after another. Most of the meditation methods recorded in your magic books are outdated! "
Lucien listened carefully. He was very familiar with the two words, and he was also very interested in the latest research results of Necromancy.
In the silence of the hall, Felipe continued to raise his voice.
"Can you imagine that the meditation methods that were only available to senior-rank sorcerers a hundred years ago can be learned by formal sorcerers now?
"Can you imagine that new spells are created every month?
"Can you imagine a middle-rank sorcerer in his twenties?
"Can you imagine a senior-rank sorcerer in his twenties?
"Can you imagine an archmage in his fifties or a legendary sorcerer in his eighties?
"Only when you go to the headquarter of the Continental Magic Congress can you know how powerful arcana and magic are!
"Maybe when you spend a hundred years here and become a senior-rank sorcerer, your companions in the Headquarters of the Magic Congress will already be archmages. And the chances of success will be no less than that of you becoming a senior-rank sorcerer. "
Under Felipe's questioning, Lucien made up his mind to go to the headquarter of the Continental Magic Congress. Although he had a lot of knowledge, he did not have the means to turn it into power. In this new age of magic, if he did not make progress, he would fall behind! Only the fertile soil could grow into a towering tree!
Felipe looked at Lucien with a bit of provocation, "You don't have to worry about being discriminated against in the headquarter of the Continental Magic Congress. Necromancy is the most popular magic except for Force Field and Electromagnetism, because necromancy studies the mysteries of life, the transformation between life and death, and all kinds of ways to extend one's life! Compared to necromancy, elemental magic is much worse. Although the human body is also made up of elements, without the integration of life force, the elements can't make anything in the human body, including blood, muscles, and all kinds of impurities. Therefore, all the studies that try to extend one's life with alchemy and elemental magic have failed!
"Refining the human body and extending one's life … This is the door that the origin of the world only opened to us, necromancy, and no other magic can compare with it!"
Hearing Felipe's encouraging speech, all the necromancers and apprentices nodded and felt a strong sense of pride. As far as they knew, the human body could only be refined from human flesh or other living things.
Hearing Felipe's words, Lucien suddenly had an idea. Could it be that the elemental magic here had not reached the stage where it could synthesize organic matter?
However, it was normal. Since necromancy existed here, the Life Force Theory must be more powerful and persuasive than the one on Earth, so the research on elemental magic was suppressed. However, according to Lucien's knowledge, the human body, soul, and life force were not exactly the same. Instead, they were combined in a way that he could not understand yet. Although it was impossible to directly refine a living person, it was still possible to refine the materials that made up the human body.
"Maybe we can try this …" Felipe thought to himself.
When Lucien was thinking quickly, Felipe raised his hands and said loudly, "In this era of magic, if you join the Hand of Paleness, you will have access to unimaginable wealth of knowledge, and the Hand of Paleness will also have more arcana and magic research results because of you joining us. This is a good thing that can benefit both of us. Therefore, I propose that everyone should sign a magic contract with me, and then I'll take you to the headquarter of the Congress. I'll leave the materials, books, and apprentices there for a period of time. "
Felipe took a step forward, and his voice suddenly became a bit crazy and cold.
"Who's in favor of my proposal? Who's against my proposal? "
After a moment of silence, Quentin, the young man who had a kind smile among all the necromancers, thought for a while and stood out, "Mr. Felipe, I still prefer to live a free life. I don't want to be bound by an organization."
Also, there was a gentleman from the Congress of Magic here. Maybe he could get the way to the headquarter of the Congress from Professor at an acceptable price.
Felipe turned around and stared at Quentin with two pale flames bouncing in his eyes. There was no emotion in his voice, "Mr. Quentin, are you sure?"
"Yes." Quentin was a bit alarmed.
Felipe nodded. Suddenly, he raised his right hand and pointed at Quentin. Instantly, the black light around Quentin was shattered, and Quentin's body became dry as if all the water in his body was evaporated.
Just like that, Quentin was killed by Felipe!
A third-circle sorcerer was killed by Felipe with only one strike!
Countless faces of wraiths appeared around Felipe, and they formed a transparent wall. Then, Felipe looked at all the necromancers and apprentices again and said in the same tone.
"Who's in favor of my proposal? Who's against my proposal? "
Cesi and the other necromancers wanted to resist, but the Wall of Wraiths around Felipe was a standard fifth-circle spell, and the spell Felipe used to kill Quentin seemed to be an extension of the fifth-circle spell, Withering, which was used to deal with plants, or an extension of the eighth-circle spell, Withering. Anyway, it should be a new spell released by the Congress of Magic, and it should be at least a fifth-circle spell.
Cesi and the other necromancers were completely overwhelmed by Felipe's aura, and they felt that they could not defeat Felipe even if they had level-five magic items. Therefore, as time went by, they became more hesitant. After all, there were many benefits to joining the Hand of Paleness!
Their hesitation and fear made the other necromancers and apprentices even more afraid to move. The atmosphere was suffocating and suffocating. Some of the apprentices who had little experience even started to tremble, and their will was greatly shaken. The few who did not want to join the Hand of Paleness became very desperate, but they did not have the courage to stand out.
Felipe looked around and said coldly again.
"Who's in favor of my proposal? Who's against my proposal? "
It was dead silent. No one dared to look into Felipe's eyes.
"I object." A calm and gentle voice came from the crowd.
Felipe was not surprised. He looked over and saw Professor, whose face was covered by a black hood, slowly walking to the high platform.
