…
Both Nikolay and Walter were devout ascetics. They joined the night watchers for other reasons. Right now, one of them was the captain of the fifth night watcher squad in the inquisition of Holm, and the other was a member of the night watchers' Hammer of Sorcerers in the inquisition of the Holy City. Both of them were level five bishops, and their faith was very strong. Varantine, the leader of the ascetics, had a deep impression of them, so he asked them to carry out this mission.
"Lord Varantine, I'm ready to sacrifice myself for the Lord at any time. Death is not the end. Behind the gate of Mountain Paradise is an eternal paradise. "Nikolay knelt down on one knee and drew a cross in front of his chest.
He was a middle-aged man, wearing a simple white robe. He had no wife, no children, no property, and no pleasure. Everything he had was dedicated to the God of Truth.
Walter was a young brown-haired man with a pair of weathered blue eyes. "Lord Varantine, death isn't scary. What's scary is losing your faith in the Lord. You'll live in a hell that you'll never be able to escape. The Lord is omniscient and omnipotent. The Lord created everything. Death is just a return to the Lord's embrace. "
"Very good. Your devotion to the Lord is the best quality you have. I can feel the joy of the Lord. The gate of Mountain Paradise will always be open for you. If you can come back from this mission, I'll take you to the Holy City of Lance to receive the Pope's blessing. You'll be promoted to senior-rank and become cardinals in charge of a small parish. "
Varantine was touched by the two night watchers' faith, and he did not hesitate to praise them, "Your target is Felipe Carneiro, the blasphemer, who's on the 91st place on the Cleansing List. Also, you have a secondary target. He's Lucien Evans X, but he's not as important as the first target. If you don't have a chance, don't ruin the cleansing operation for him. If you have a chance to escape, don't give up because of him. "
In other words, there was almost no chance to assassinate Lucien when there were so many archmages and senior-rank sorcerers.
"The blasphemer must be eliminated!" Both Nikolay and Walter answered loudly.
Next to Lucien, Vaharall took out a silver longsword solemnly. At first glance, the sword looked ordinary, but upon closer inspection, one would find that it could absorb all the light and cut through everything. "This is a replica of the Sword of Truth, the divine artifact of Holm parish. It can cut through all the bonds and bonds below legendary level. Felipe is a necromancer, so he might have his own phylactery, or soul, or soul have his own soul, and so on. "
The Hoffenberg family was named the Sword of Truth was named the Sword of Truth because its power was similar to the Sword of Truth. However, it was impossible for the two night watchers to carry such a legendary item, or it would be hard to tell whether they were going to assassinate Felipe or deliver legendary equipment to him. Therefore, the three saint-level (legendary) Grand Cardinals of the Church spent a few days combining their own strength, divine power circles, senior-rank materials and the separated power of the Sword of Truth to create the replica, which could only be used once.
Seeing Nicholas taking over the replica of the Sword of Truth, Varantine said, "The old sorcerer Vern will arrange for you to enter the Sariva Manor as servants. Wait patiently. You must kill Felipe as soon as possible."
Vern was a level-four arcanist and a fifth-circle sorcerer. He had made a lot of important achievements in arcana research. When he was young, he had killed many night watchers. However, as he grew older, his progress in arcana research slowed down and even stagnated. Therefore, he became more and more confused about arcana research.
Questions such as where did life come from? What was the source of magic power? How did the soul come into being? Since he could not get the answers from the current arcana research, he started to believe in the existence of God. He believed that God was the origin of all things. Therefore, he was very devoted to God.
Therefore, he arranged for people to sneak into the manor where the senior-rank sorcerers gathered and assassinate the most important genius of the Congress of Magic. However, only Vern agreed. Those spies who cooperated with the Church for money, materials, and beautiful women would not cooperate with the Church at all. If they were pushed too hard, they would tell the truth to the Punishment Department of the Affairs Committee. After all, it was better to accept the punishment than to lose their lives.
Nikolay and Walter stood up and drew a cross in the air. "Only Truth lives forever!"
"Only Truth lives forever!" Varantine and Vaharall watched them leave.
Then, Vaharall sighed, "Are we really going to sacrifice two night watchers like this? Also, it's not easy for a sorcerer like Vern to develop. After this, we'll suffer a great loss. What a pity. "
"But it's worth it." This cannot be described as a sacrifice. This is dedication. It is the best expression of their devotion to themselves. "The leader of the Ascetic Monks, Varantine, closed his eyes with a resolute expression.
…
"Good afternoon, Mr. Felipe."
"Mr. Felipe …"
Outside of Sariva's manor, many middle-rank necromancers saw Felipe walking towards them with his hands in his black coat. They all nodded and greeted him subconsciously, as if they admired Felipe from the bottom of their hearts.
Except for the grand arcanists and legendary sorcerers, Felipe was the only living person who had a chance to win the Holm Crown prize after winning the Immortal Throne prize. Also, although his research on cell memory opened a new chapter in the treatment of wounds in the school of Necromancy and benefited a lot of sorcerers, it was only a supplementary and breakthrough arcana achievement. It was far less shocking and admirable than overthrowing the Life Force Theory, one of the cornerstones of Necromancy.
Of course, there were also a lot of necromancers who wanted to turn Felipe into their own puppet. However, the arcanists from the Will of Elements were mostly impressed by Felipe's work, but they also felt that it was a pity that Felipe's work could not be done by a sorcerer from the school of Element.
Facing all kinds of gazes, Felipe was calm and collected, without the slightest modesty or fear. He nodded slightly in response and strode into the manor, walking towards the main hall of the main house. In front of him were the senior-rank arcanists such as Rogelio.
In front of the main hall, Felipe paused for a second and looked at Lucien who was walking out of another room. Felipe put on a gloomy smile, as if he was saying, "Nice work, Mr. Professor."
Although none of the necromancers died because they couldn't accept the new theory and forced themselves to meditate, Felipe was quite satisfied with the result. Due to the chaos in their cognitive world, many necromancers lost control of their spiritual power, and most of them were the conservative old guys.
Then, without waiting for Lucien's response, Lucien directly walked into the main hall. To his surprise, he saw a half-high platform in front of him. On the platform, there were many dangerous magic circles covering the alchemy platform and the experiment equipment made of glass.
Crystal tubes connected the two glass bottles together to form a closed circulation system. There were some other devices in the middle, which gave Lucien a strange and mysterious sense of beauty.
"What kind of experiment is this?" Felipe was a bit surprised. He thought they were here to talk about the research on food production, but it did not seem like it.
"What do the people from the Will of Elements want to do?" As a core member of the Hand of Paleness, Felipe believed that they would not hide this kind of thing from him. Therefore, he quickly thought of the arcanists from the Will of Elements and sat down in the middle of the row behind Rogelio and Pesor with great suspicion.
"Mr. Pesor, what's this?" Rogelio thought for a while but still had no clue. So he turned around and asked Pesor, who was a member of the Arcana Board.
Pesor shook his head, "I don't know. It was Gaston who proposed the discussion at the end of the project. Did they complete any important experiments? "
Lucien did not pay much attention to this. After all, the Life Force Theory had been overthrown by the Hand of Paleness, and they had enough time to prepare. Whatever decisive results they had, the Hand of Paleness would not suffer any more losses. At most, it would only make the diehards, who might slow down their progress in the future, more frustrated.
As for the other basic theories in the school of Necromancy, there was no evidence to prove that they were wrong. If they could be overthrown, they would have entered the realm of God, such as the Soul Essence Theory, Soul Consciousness Theory, and Ego Theory.
At this time, Lucien, Raventi, Gaston, LockLynn and other arcanists from the Will of Elements also walked in and sat on the other side of the table.
"Morris? What's he doing here?" Tina-Timos slightly frowned her beautiful and charming eyebrows.
Morris was not involved in this research mission, and his sudden appearance made Tina-Timos feel that something was not right.
Rogelio, on the other hand, was quite understanding, "The great discussion about Life Force Theory attracted me here, and Mr. Morris is no exception."
At two o 'clock in the afternoon, all the arcanists and druids, including Iristine and Arcelion, had arrived. Since Malfurion had given up on cooperating with the grand arcanists to study the divine spells of nature, the urging from Stroman Forest had stopped.
On the other hand, Malfurion and several grand arcanists were watching the experiment from a demiplane upstairs.
"Hathaway, why did you ask us to watch this experiment?" Thanatos leaned against an armchair that was decorated with complicated patterns. Although the result was not as optimistic as he had expected, the negative effects caused by the Life Force Theory had been mostly eliminated, which made him feel a bit relieved.
Hathaway stared at the outside with her cold silver eyes and answered without turning her head, "A simple experiment that can shake part of the foundation of the Church. Sometimes, maybe it's because we think too much, and that's why we can't find the result. The same goes for the divine spells of nature. "
Hearing Hathaway's words, Douglas, the president of the Congress of Magic, and Brook, the vice president of the Congress of Magic, all looked very serious.
Except for the Witch of Iceland and the Hand of Annihilation, all the other grand arcanists were sitting in their seats.
…
Raventi, who was wearing a gray robe, walked onto the platform and stood behind the experiment device. Then he said in a loud voice, "The discussion about Life Force Theory has inspired some senior-rank arcanists in the Will of Elements, and they have designed a wonderful experiment based on the legends. Ladies and gentlemen, before we talk about the result of the project, let's witness the experiment. It might take a long time, and I hope you can hold on. We can use the time to discuss the alchemical substances in the experiment. "
Raventi was not one to joke around. His solemn introduction immediately piqued the curiosity of the arcanists.
What kind of experiment was this? (To be continued. If you like this work, you're welcome to come to qidian.com to vote. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
