Lord of Rot

Three stages
Unaware that he had become a "strange person" in Li Qi's eyes, Thomas Scholar asked, "Do you want to buy the magic alchemy items I made?"

Li Qi looked at the room, it was a mess, clothes and socks were lost, it was difficult to find a place to stay, and there were a few glass bottles and jars on the chair.

The smell is very weird, not a bad smell, but the smell of magic potion, very pungent.

He gave up the idea of ​​sitting down, nodded and said, "Can you show me some?"

Li Qi has always been very interested in magic alchemy items.

"Haha, let me show you my collection! Please wait a moment!" Scholar Thomas left quickly.

Li Qi was very worried that Scholar Thoma would simply forget about himself after saying "wait a moment", but fortunately, this did not happen.

Soon, Scholar Thomas came over with four or five boxes.

He didn't open the box directly, but said to Li Qi: "When I was an apprentice, I used to sit and take a nap under the apple tree, but an apple fell from the tree and hit my head."

Li Qi's eyes widened in shock.

The heart couldn't help beating faster, could it be that he picked up a big man.

The Thomas scholar continued: "I asked my teacher why the apple fell from the tree instead of running up, but my teacher couldn't give an answer either."

"And then?" Li Qi asked.

"Then I started to study" Thomas scholar was very satisfied with Li Qi's supportive questioning, he said: "I have studied for many years, even after I became a scholar, my research did not stop, and finally I discovered that there is a force on the ground, which There is a force that pulls everything down toward the ground, and I call this force gravity."

This is it!Li Qi couldn't help exclaiming in his heart.

Isn't the Thomas scholar not a waste scholar, but a magic Newton?
Just when Li Qi made up his mind to lure him back to the porcupine collar, Scholar Thomas opened a box with a stone in it: "This is the result of my research."

"This is...?" Li Qi asked with his eyes, and after receiving the nod from the other party, he picked up the stone.

He held it in his hand and weighed it, but there was no special feeling.

"This is a gravity detection stone!" Scholar Thomas said very seriously: "As long as there is gravity, this stone can be detected."

"How to test?" Li Qi asked.

Scholar Thomas said: "Throw a stone, and when it falls, there will be gravity."

Li Qi's hands trembled, and he almost threw the stone directly in the face of Thomas Scholar with his master-level throwing skills.

"An ordinary stone can do it too."

"This is a magical alchemical object, not an ordinary stone." Scholar Toma shook his head.

No wonder he was called a waste scholar, Li Qi suddenly realized.

Maybe I shouldn't come today.

Li Qi silently put the gravity detection stone back into the box.

"Please also look at this." Scholar Thomas opened the second box, which was empty.

"What is this?" Li Qi asked.

Did Thomas Scholars create something similar to [The Invisible Pot]?

"The Invisible Ring," said Thomas Scholar: "A ring that is exquisitely crafted but completely invisible."

"..."

What's the point of wearing a ring if you can't see it?

Li Qi stretched out his hand to grab it, and indeed got a ring, and asked in his heart, "Can you make it bigger?"

If it is completely invisible, maybe it can be made into a transparent weapon.

Sneak attacks work wonders.

But there is a premise, you have to be able to see and grasp it. If it weren't for the tactile sensation of your fingers, Li Qi would be completely unable to capture the ring with his naked eyes.

"No, and only rings can be made now."

OK, junk items.

Li Qi made a motion to put the ring back into the box, which was actually still in his palm, and then Scholar Thomas closed the box.

Yes, Thomas Scholars can't see either!
Scholar Thomas continued: "There is also this one, which I made by researching space magic."

Li Qi, who had no expectations, became interested again after hearing about "space magic".

Such as storage rings, traceless stretching spell suitcases, etc., I believe no one can refuse a magic storage item.

Thomas Scholar opened the third box.

"A buckskin bag?" Li Qi was surprised.

It looks like a very ordinary buckskin bag, and it looks like it can hold about 3 loaves of bread.

"That's right." Scholar Toma smiled: "I studied the literature of previous scholars, as well as ancient records, and finally succeeded in making this space bag."

"Can I have a look?" Li Qi asked.

"Please!"

Li Qi took the bag, opened it, took a look inside, and asked, "How much can it hold? A carriage, or a set of armor?"

"How can it hold so much!" Scholar Thomas shook his head, as if frightened, and said, "It can hold so much."

With that said, Scholar Thomas picked up a cup at hand and put it in the bag.

The small cup is only half the size of a loaf.

After waiting for a while, Scholar Thomas did not follow up, and Li Qi couldn't help but ask, "That's all?"

"Yes, that's all." Scholar Thomas nodded affirmatively.

Trash scholar, that's it!

"Have you ever thought about expanding the space inside?"

"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't do it." Thomas scholar shook his head: "This is already the limit."

"If you can make it the size of a ring, then you can hold such a cup, it seems to be okay," Li Qi said.

Scholar Thomas shook his head: "Impossible! This is the smallest size I can shrink to."

"If you use a wine barrel, how much can it hold?" Li Qi asked.

"Still so much," he smiled.

You are quite proud!
Although Li Qi really admires the Thomas scholar, who is proficient in gravity, invisibility, space and other knowledge, the knowledge reserve may have surpassed the tower literature scholar in Ironstone City, but the things produced are useless.

"and also……"

"All right!"

Li Qi stopped Scholar Thomas from introducing him. He was afraid that he would have a cerebral hemorrhage if he watched it any longer: "Actually, I'm not here to buy things this time. I want to ask about something else."

"Knowledge discussion, of course!"

Scholar Thomas put away his rare magic items and motioned for Li Qi to ask questions.

"I want to know that with the emergence of the tide of magic, people possess extraordinary power. Is there a rough division of this power?"

This is also one of Li Qilai's intentions, to find a knowledgeable scholar to ask out his doubts.

"The Emergence of the Magical Tide" Scholar Thomas didn't seem to expect that a lord would ask such a question. He was a little surprised and said, "Extraordinary power, I think a more accurate name should be human evolution."

"Evolution?" Li Qi suspected that Thomas Scholars also did research on biology.

"Yes, after becoming a superhuman, the body no longer belongs to ordinary human beings, and begins to possess various strange abilities," Thomas scholar said: "I have seen it in many documents, and I think this group of people is moving towards a more High-level evolution, I should first explain what evolution is."

"No, I know about evolution." Li Qi said, "It's like humans evolved from monkeys."

"Haha, it's an interesting hypothesis, although it's a bit ridiculous." Thomas Scholar said with a smile: "But at least it's more reasonable than the church. Those people are gods every day. In my opinion, gods are also evolved from humans."

"God evolved from man?"

Scholar Thomas nodded: "In many myths and legends in the Lurea continent, there is evidence that people can become gods, so the hierarchy you mentioned, I think it should refer to the different stages of a life form."

"Probably?"

"Let's roughly divide it into three stages. After all, I'm not even the first stage, but as far as I know, the church calls them saints, angels, legends, and some tribes of giant feet consider them high priests, demigods, and gods." Scholar Thomas said: "Each stage is a different state. Unfortunately, there are too few documents. One thing is certain, the adult dragon is a legend."

Among the three stages of life, Mizusawa Fairy is very likely to be the second stage, but as the second stage, she shouldn't be killed so easily, it's a pity that I can't look at her memory, so I can't determine the specific reason.

Li Qi suddenly felt something was wrong, because Scholar Thomas' tone was very firm: "Have you seen a dragon?"

"I've heard voices from afar."

"There really are dragons!" Li Qi suddenly felt that it was not impossible for him to fulfill the necromancer's last wish and make a ghoul dragon.

But there are three difficulties here, one is to find the dragon, the other is to kill the dragon, and the third is to control the dragon made into a ghoul.

Li Qi gained a lot from the communication with Thomas Scholars.

Knowing that it is roughly divided into three stages, although knowing these stages is of little significance.

Like a water fairy, it gave Li Qi the feeling of being unable to do anything.

So, he threw out his olive branch: "Scholar Thomas, I don't know if you are interested in my territory. You just need to work for me. I can provide you with funds and support your research."

"Sorry, you are from..."

"Porcupine Collar"

"Yes, porcupine collar, I've heard of it."

Judging by the expression, I have never heard of it!

Li Qi did not forcefully correct the other party, but asked, "How is it?"

"Of course, I would love to!"

Looking at Scholar Toma's expression, it was as if he had been taken advantage of.

Li Qi was very happy, as long as the other party had knowledge, he could let him play a role, and the knowledge of the Thomas scholar had been confirmed, but the finished product was speechless.

There is absolutely no loss in attracting talents, um...probably not.
