People are forbidden by magic, just become mercenaries

Or to protect themselves from natural enemies, or to capture prey more efficiently, or to endure the heat and cold, or to inhale sulfur in places without oxygen under huge water pressure.

The reasons are varied and the examples are too numerous to list.

No matter what kind of animal or plant it is, it is impossible to evolve on its own. It must change its skills and posture according to the surrounding environment.

In other words, if the surrounding environment changes, the living body will also "evolve" accordingly.

But often this process is very slow, and the environment rarely undergoes sudden drastic changes. Even if there is a situation that is directly fatal to the living body in most cases, there is no space and time for them to "react".

During that period, however, there appeared certain "external factors" that could not be classified as "environment" or not.

According to the clues discovered by the "magic side" so far, there was a certain kind of special life form around the Cambrian period.

They emit a special "field", and this special "field" will invisibly interfere with the surrounding life forms and induce them to "evolve".

To put it simply, an "extreme" but not fatal "external factor" appeared unexpectedly, forcing those life forms to "evolve".

Although this process still lasted for nearly a million years to complete, compared to normal circumstances, the categories and numbers that appeared in the outbreak were extremely abnormal.

Regarding this point, the "magic side" chose to conceal it, because if the "science side" is allowed to obtain it, or to be precise, if Academy City is allowed to obtain it, then the question of whether the status of the "magic side" will be irreversibly impacted is a question mark up.

Although the vast majority of magicians are not interested in things like "immortality" and "beyond human intelligence", there will always be a few guys with "retro" thinking when there are too many people.

Perhaps their essence is not simply wanting to "live forever", but immortality is indispensable in order to achieve their goals.

"I didn't quite understand when I caught you back then. You killed nearly a thousand people mercilessly, but you helped the ordinary people affected by the roadside."

No one responded, or the other party had no way to respond to Sigurd's question.

In fact, in that battle back then, how could Sigurd's character be merciful to this kind of guy?

When recovered by the members of the Church of Necessary Evil, the magician named Vogt Ernest Capillo was less than half of his body.

If he hadn't modified his body long ago in order to be "perfect", I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to survive at all.

In order not to let him harm the world, but also to prevent his soul from being recalled by people with ulterior motives to continue to do evil, so the British side decided not to kill him directly, but cut off his limbs and sealed them in the "Deep Sea Blue Whale". middle.

"You know better than anyone that such a 'state' cannot be called 'evolution' at all, let alone 'perfection'."

Going deeper, there should be the "office" where the witch in the "Deep Sea Blue Whale" is.

The reason why Sigurd didn't directly kill this guy just now is that he found out which "witch" in the lower level was not killed, but still stayed in the "office" and kept sending messages for help to the outside world.

"I can fully understand your purpose, and I also agree with your wish."

When Sigurd turned around the last corner, he could already see the "office" that was densely entwined with pink thin threads like muscle fibers, like a silkworm chrysalis.

"You know that even if your research is successful, you will eventually become a 'monster', so you choose to apply the research to yourself instead of directly acting on the 'purpose'."

Sigurd observed the structure of this "office". Unlike Helen's, this one was like a bungalow.

In addition to those sticky muscle fiber-like artificial objects in the boxy structure, there are also a large number of runes carved around it.

"Judging from the list provided by Lola, the witch in this facility is the 'Plant Witch' from the branch of the Kaletika school, right? The witches of the Kaletika school place great emphasis on nature and all things. Magic spells from stones to souls and spirits."

A strong "life force" came from the room surrounded by runes and fibers in front of it. Compared with the strong life force that made people subconsciously feel warm, even the uncomfortable environment and phenomena around them seemed less disgusting.

"And the witches of this branch emphasize that 'life force is the origin of all things'. Unlike other modern theoretical magicians who use breathing methods and mental concentration methods to refine magic power to strengthen their own 'foundation', these witches are compared to' "Meditation" pays more attention to the improvement of "life force" for spiritual improvement."

The "magic power" used by magicians can be compared to something similar to gasoline.

In other words, the "crude oil" of life and vitality is refined into "gasoline" which is easier to use through breathing, blood flow and meditation.

Therefore, magicians are by no means omnipotent.No matter how much you pursue higher magic, if the most fundamental "life force" cannot be improved, then the amount of gasoline that can be refined is still fixed.

Chapter 380 Six: I will not deny your wish

Generally speaking, "vitality" is innate, and theoretically speaking, it cannot be enhanced, but can only be weakened.

But the witches of this branch have broken through this "impossible".

Since she was very young, she has used a large amount of potion to bathe, drink and smear. The potion's medicinal power combined with a large number of spells allows their bodies to be "transformed" when they are immature.

Although it is possible to obtain far more than the original "life force" and the magical field that was impossible to set foot in, this kind of human interference will inevitably cause negative effects.

"You plan to use the powerful vitality of that witch as a basis, and use the surrounding 'abnormalities' to induce her 'evolution', so as to obtain the 'magic power' needed to complete your ultimate goal, right? You plan to turn her into a living body Magic Furnace."

Sigurd stopped in front of the room.

"You are an expert in biological magic, and you know better than anyone else that things like 'resurrection' are absolutely impossible for normal humans to do."

The fibers began to squirm, as if they were absorbing magic power and sending it to every part of this "whole".

"At the same time, you also deeply realize that you will never be able to reach the 'peak of magic'. Because you can recognize your 'talent' and 'capacity' better than anyone else."

【I...must...like this...no...na...】

This is not talking, but the sound of vibrating "fibers".

It seems that it was deliberately controlled by the magician who integrated himself into the entire "deep sea blue whale".

"Yes, for you, in order to revive your lover, your only choice is to make yourself no longer a 'normal person'. In fact, it doesn't matter whether you are a 'human' or not, as long as you can get the power beyond common sense power, then perhaps the theoretical impossibilities bound to the 'human' realm can be broken."

[I...haven't...not enough...only...]

"Killing thousands of people is just for life sacrifices in exchange for enough magic power to start the ceremony. Of course, of course I know, otherwise why do you think you can survive?"

[Resurrection...can...help...give you...]

"No need, I don't have anyone who wants to be resurrected. I don't plan to take this kind of business either. In fact, your thinking went wrong after you recognized your lack of 'talent'."

【...】

"The biggest obstacle for human beings to resurrect the dead is not the preservation or activation of the corpse, but how to recall the dissipated 'soul' and put it into the body. Simply put, no one can give the 'soul' an accurate Definition."

[As long as...is...no problem...satisfied...]

Sigurd frowned slightly, as if he was a little surprised by the degree of the other party's distortion.

"What do you mean, as long as it's her, it's fine. I'm cooperating with you for a soulless body driven by an 'artificial soul'? To be honest, I can't tell whether you are an 'infatuated' or pure 'Lust'."

[You...understand...her...together! ! ! ! ! ! 】

"That's enough. Things that have fallen from the soul should be purified."

Although there was impatience in his tone, Sigurd did nothing.

He didn't move, and didn't make any special actions, just stood there motionless.

The surrounding fibers trembled uneasily, seeming to be quite painful.

"You used a large number of prisoners as 'catalysts' to launch this spell to seal yourself into the 'deep sea blue whale'. And I simply redefine every fiber here as a person's lifeline, and then give A spell of punishment."

【Buzzing...】

"This is the use of the religious views common to all cultural circles, ancient and modern, east and west—this is the 'negative resentment' that cannot be prevented no matter what defensive technique is used in any cultural circle. punish'."

【! ! ! ! ! ! ! 】

The expressionless mercenary squinted his eyes and looked at the quivering piece of flesh in front of him. He didn't have any extra emotions for this completely distorted magician from beginning to end.

Under the premise of identifying the other party as an "enemy", no matter how respectable and great the other party is, or how lofty and great the other party is, or even has the desire to make those who hear it cry.

The other party's life is with Sigurd, and the only remaining last description is "one".

"Although I'm not too cold about this kind of thing. But today I'll make an exception and 'work overtime'."

Seeing that the rhythm is getting weaker and weaker, I am afraid that the "consciousness" has begun to be diluted by the backlash of the wraith.

Sigurd will not deny the essential purpose of this magician who resurrects his lover, and Sigurd will not deny anyone's dream.

But no matter what Sigurd himself thinks, what he has done is undoubtedly destroying the peace on the "magic side".

"I hope you will get rid of the shackles of death as soon as possible, and enter a peaceful and bright heaven to reunite with your lover."

Everything returned to calm. It was obviously a very dangerous situation, but it ended so casually.

This is the battle of magicians, there is no loud chanting of complicated and lengthy incantations, and it is not always a supersonic close-to-hand combat with punches to the flesh, and it is impossible to burst out every time enough to bulldoze a small town Fire scoured the ground.

For Sigurd, it is feasible to rescue the trapped "witch" first, and then destroy the facility with absolute violence to truly "kill" the other party, but he does not intend to do so.

This is the open sea, and there are not a few ships coming and going even in the middle of the night like now.

If a large-scale destructive technique is launched rashly, it is very likely to cause panic and investigation in the general world.

At that time, even the United Kingdom will have difficulty recovering the crushed wreckage smoothly.

And if the wreckage of the "deep sea blue whale" is recovered by other associations or salvage teams in the general world, then the follow-up processing will be a huge workload.

"Please, may I ask, are you a Puritan magician?"

The timid little head stuck out from the "room", as if sensing the end of the commotion outside, so he bravely opened the door and came out.

"I'm a mercenary, but the employer is indeed the Puritan bitch."

"Ah, is it someone invited by Miss Supreme Bishop? Great, I thought I would become those monsters too."

(When it comes to the female fox, it is Laura by default. This supreme bishop is too embarrassing...)

Chapter 380 Seven: Girls of Indian Mythology

"Parashu!"

On the original short stick-shaped prop in the hands of the short-haired girl who shouted so loudly, the solid magic power condensed some kind of heavy object like an axe.

I saw her gently swinging the giant axe horizontally.

Accompanied by a loud noise, all kinds of magical bombardments flying in front of the girl were completely cut apart.

Shallow and almost invisible slash marks remained on the surface of the walls on both sides. For walls with a thickness of more than three meters, the damage that is not even considered as the thickness of the wall skin can basically be ignored.

After defeating the opponent's offensive, the girl's side did not stay.

Behind the short-haired girl, the older silver-haired girl moved her hand like she was drawing a bow.

It was also a short stick-shaped spiritual outfit, and with the injection of magic power, a translucent silver bow emerged from the void.

Immediately afterwards, an arrow glowing with blue and white light appeared in the void.

"The Divine Arrow of the Beast Lord (pashupata)!"

With a loud noise, a blue-white light streaked across the long and narrow corridor and disappeared into the distance.

There was no movement, no magical explosions, it felt like nothing had disappeared.
