The Righteous Player(s) - Chapter 372

[Chapter 369 Blood of the World]

Nicholas slowly opened his eyes from the chair.

In the bottom of his calm lake green eyes, there is neither malicious nor goodwill, god-like gentleness and compassion.

He moved his head from side to side, slightly soothing the cervical spine that was stiff from sitting still for a long time.

Nicholas exhaled lightly, reached out and stroked his long white hair back, tied it into a ponytail, and took out a rope from the table to tie it.

He reached out and pushed the instruments on the table aside, picked up a little-finger-sized bottle of sky-blue medicine from the reagent rack, and drank it.

At this moment, a calm and depressed middle-aged male voice came from behind Nicholas:

“Where have you just been?” “Going

out for a while.”

Nicholas reached out and wiped the corner of his mouth, turned around and replied softly .

And behind him, there is no living person.

There is only one plaster statue of human height sitting on the ground.

The distressed expression on its face is reminiscent of a philosopher, and its eyes are slightly closed, thinking about something.

But the statue looked up and glanced at Nicholas.

The dull middle-aged voice poured out of its mouth: “You drank the ‘Soul Healing Potion’. Is your soul hurt?”

“Well, it was hurt by Paper Ji’s ‘red’ and ‘yellow’, question Not big. Although He also took out a ‘blue’ pen, he didn’t use it to attack me.”

Nicholas replied calmly: “My soul is orange, so it’s not a big deal to eat a ‘red’ attack. The problem.”

“How did you provoke Zhi Ji?” The

stone statue made a dull voice: “She has a good temper.”

“I see Annan.”

Nicholas smiled slightly, took out another tube of pale yellow oily reagent, drank it and said softly, “Go and say hello to him.”

”

…Annan Lindong?”

He continued: “Has he come to Noah?”

“Well,

just here. But unlike what you said to me before, Master Shi, his soul is not snow-colored… but rainbow-colored.”

“That means he The ceremony was successful.”

Father Shi said calmly: “But it has nothing to do with your work.

“Work with peace of mind, don’t contact Annan.

”

But my job is to make poisonous dust, and Annan is the most famous alien species, right?”

I’ll need some of his blood and soul shards to be sure that poison dust works on aliens as well.

”

Don’t think too much, your job is to make poison dust, that’s all.”

Regardless of Annan being special, even if the poisonous dust is effective against aliens, it is not an excuse for you to attack other aliens.

Swordsmiths can’t use people to try swords…you’re close to taboo.

”

Father Shi said plainly: “Also, if you got his blood and soul, are you really only going to use it for experiments?”

Don’t forget how your creator died.

Don’t forget how the lineage of Hermes was cut off.

Do not underestimate the memory of the gods.

“—Don’t try to touch the taboo.”

“Okay, I know… I won’t make the mistake that my father made.”

Nicholas sighed helplessly: “So let’s showdown, Master Shi. So you guys What do you want to use for poison dust? You asked me to make this thing, constantly changing the formula, but never telling me your purpose… This is unreasonably increasing my workload.

“I need to know it use and purpose.

This is a very reasonable demand… You don’t know much about Hermetic alchemy, but I do.

Hearing this, the

stone statue behind him was silent for a long time.

Then the humanoid statue stood up and walked behind Nicholas.

“…Speaking of which, it’s time.”

Father Shi said in a deep voice, “Do you know how the elves perished?”

“Is it because of the curse?”

Nicholas replied fluently: “Using the curse as a transmission medium, extract the The power of the world itself is used as energy. It is the power of incomplete creation…a limited degree of ‘the ability to achieve what you want’.

“What the spell can draw is the blood of the world.

Curse energy can be restored naturally, but with the expansion of elves and the gradual expansion of the use of magic energy, it gradually weakens the barriers of the world, allowing the world to gradually overlap with other worlds… Therefore, it is surrounded by the world. curse.

”

“Is this the part you understand.”

”

Father Shi nodded and said calmly, “It’s generally not bad.

There is only one thing I need to correct.

“This world is originally colliding and overlapping with other worlds. Nightmares are not something that only exists in these epochs, and our world has many books of truth as the backbone of the world. The power of the element acts as a recipient…other worlds are even more difficult to fight against us.

“It doesn’t matter whether the virtual world, the dream world, or other worlds at the end of the dream world are the same… Only the spell can weaken it. After the barrier of our world, the accident of ‘world collapse’ will occasionally occur, and a certain creature in our world will be permanently exiled to other worlds.

That is to say—”

“…That is to say, without the use of spell energy, there will be creatures from other worlds that are exiled to us?

”

Nicholas quickly understood the meaning of Father Stone.

It was like the collision of two ships.

If one party is bound to be damaged… Then after the spell can be completely stopped, the foggy world will gradually recover. Then, the virtual world will gradually recover. The creatures in the world or the dream world may be exiled here by the broken world – just as the creatures here are exiled to other worlds.

For the world, this is undoubtedly a victory.

But for the tiny creatures living in the world, compared to “losing a few strangers forever”, “terrifying creatures descended from another world” is a terrifying disaster that is more related to their vital interests.

“It’s better if you can understand.”

Father Shi glanced at Nicholas and patted his shoulder with a hand made of stone: “The dream world is relatively stable… But the virtual world has gradually begun to break in the past few years. At present, the scale of the invasion is still relatively small, so the Red Knight and Lady Silent can still stop it, but as the virtual world is broken, more and more virtual world creatures will fall into the dream world and the real world.

“But This may also be an opportunity for us… You must know that the ‘real sage’s stone’ is the blood of the virtual world.

”

…So you wake me up?”

”

Nicholas said in a low voice with a complicated expression: “Because I inherited my father’s memory and ability?

”

“Because he is the ‘Second Hermes’ and you are the ‘Second Nicholas’.

Father

Shi replied plainly, his tone did not change in the slightest, just like a real stone statue: “Hermes was able to collect the power of elements and artificially create the stone of the sage… You may also be able to combine the energy from the virtual world. Invaders become the new Sage Stone.

What we need is not Hermes poisonous dust that can effectively kill all outsiders, but a portable consumable that can ‘extract and refine the power of the corpses of ethereal creatures’.

“Since the imaginary creatures will inevitably fall to us, what we have to do is not to think about how to reduce the impact and reduce the disaster… but whether this matter can be turned into a favorable impact. In the end, the answer we gave is- —Yes.

“If the remains of the imaginary creatures can be made into something similar to the sage’s stone and fed back to the world through the elf’s curse cellar, the power of the elements flowing in the world can be further enhanced… Maybe not only in the future Gold rank, as long as silver can ignite the fire of the elements.

“Even, maybe… someday, we’ll be able to completely dispel these damn fogs. Let the land be bathed in sunlight again.”
