Chapter 2008 Edwards “Legacy”
Opening the trap door, the group entered the underground. After lighting up the crystal lamps on the wall that were triggered by spirits, one could see the underground laboratory and storage room divided into two floors, each covering the same area as the house above.
“These crystal lamps are good things. The witches of the Fifth Age liked to make such lamps. Now very few people will take the initiative to use them.”
Megan looked at them with admiration, while Shade thought that if there were extra lamps here, he could use them to decorate his new room on the third floor.
So with the expectation of finding more good things, he and the witches started counting items, hoping to see how much inheritance he had inherited. Because Megan and Audrey were still alive, although the fortune teller at that time said that he would leave all the things to Shade, Shade considered owning them together with the Twin Witches.
Of course, although I was full of expectations at the beginning, actually taking inventory of books, various materials and items was quite boring in itself. Because there were too many things, Miss Benenice finally had to find a group of girls to help, and the efficiency improved a lot.
There are no traps here. Although there are dangerous items, most of them have been properly sealed. For Shade, the most valuable thing among them was the red “small stone” found on the experimental table and embedded in the center of a silver cross.
It is also the size of half a fingernail, and it is also a genuine “Philosopher’s Stone”.
“There have long been rumors that your family is researching the Philosopher’s Stone in the hope of gaining immortality. I guessed that I would find this.”
He put the Philosopher’s Stone given by the church and the Philosopher’s Stone found here together, and saw two small bright red stones slowly merging into one in the palm of Shade’s hand. This is also the Philosopher’s Stone. Characteristics of stone.
“Compared with the piece you had before, which one is bigger?”
Audrey asked curiously, while Megan, who was holding hands with her, was using a spell to direct the books on the table to fly and stack together to make it easier for the girls to register. Originally, she only appeared alone, but Miss Benenice thought that since she was two people, she had to do the work of two people. This was considered by the two sisters as oppression.
“It’s about the same size as the previous one. So, I walked around Green Lake, and in the end I still only had this Philosopher’s Stone left in my hand.”
He shook his head, used the moonlight from his fingertips to enlarge the hole in the center of the cross, and then reinstalled the “Philosopher’s Stone”:
“You know, Audrey, the Philosopher’s Stone actually enhances the effect of casting spells and has a different effect in my hands. After I was promoted to the seventh level, the spell [Active Clay] because of the spiritual rune [Flesh and Blood] It appears and becomes thaumaturgy, and this thaumaturgy maintains its original effect, which is to allow me to animate the creations of soil and rock, filling the gaps in the living body and making it a part of the living body.”
Audrey thought for a while:
“If you use the Philosopher’s Stone to increase this effect, wait a minute!”
Her eyes widened, thinking of what Shade did at noon today:
“You can bring back the soul from death, and this weird thaumaturgy enhanced by the Philosopher’s Stone, is it possible?”
“Yes, the sublimation of spells into thaumaturgy does not produce other spell-casting effects, but only enhances the original spell-casting effects. It can then be further enhanced by the [Philosopher’s Stone]. In theory, it should be possible. A soul reshapes its body.”
Shad said cautiously, Audrey looked him up and down:
“Is this really something a mortal can do? You mean, you can use the Philosopher’s Stone to shape a person?”
“No, no, the materials are still stone and soil. The Philosopher’s Stone is only used as a catalyst in the chemical reaction. It does not participate in the synthesis process, so it is still a mortal body.”
However, Shade thought about the possibility mentioned by Audrey:
“As for what you said, using a piece of Philosopher’s Stone to carve a human form, this is not something I can do, and I don’t think any mortal can do it. Even the thaumaturgy of [Activated Clay] can only shape mortals. The body, and the Philosopher’s Stone creates the human body. Even if I have such a big Philosopher’s Stone, what kind of soul is needed to support a great body that is not my own? Is this considered a human-shaped relic?”
“She” suddenly smiled in Shade’s ear, as if she was amused by Shade’s joke.
“You are right, but the [Active Clay] thaumaturgy you have mastered is still weird. I am the most knowledgeable witch in the council, but I have never heard of a mortal being able to do such a thing. Does the part of the body you create must be the same as the original? ”
She asked again.
“I just shape it roughly, and the soul will automatically make it look like what it should be. Of course, if the clay I shape is too different from the original, then it will also be very different after it becomes a body. In this way Come, let me disfigure someone first, then make him a clay mask that is very different from his original appearance, and then I can give him a complete facelift.”
Shad suddenly thought of the new effects of the new thaumaturgy. Audrey blinked suddenly, while Megan, who was casting spells at the side, glanced at her. The two sisters had the same mind, and they both had new ideas:
“Xia De, are you okay?”
Audrey whispered a possibility into Shade’s ear, and Shade shivered as if he had been bitten by Mia:
“This is a terrible thought, who would cut off his own. Besides, I am very satisfied with mine.”
“It’s just an academic discussion, why are you reacting so violently?”
Although she said this, her face turned red and she glanced down:
“I know a lot of thaumaturgy and spells that can reshape the body, but you are the only one that seems to grow naturally. It is really appropriate that the ancestors gave you all the materials for refining the human body.”
“What are they doing?”
Not far away, Miss Sylvia asked Miss Benanis who was flipping through an unnamed black book. The latter looked up at Shade and Audrey who were talking:
“Flirting.”
The great witch of space snorted:
“Two people are more attractive than one.”
In addition to the harvest of the Philosopher’s Stone, although the number of books collected here does not reach four digits, with the fortune teller’s own notebooks and experimental manuals, the number of books is far more than three digits. Most of them are books that can only be read by ring wizards. Although Shade’s [Library Search] can quickly find books, he still has to read them by himself. Reading through these books will be a big project, and it will not be possible for one or two years. Can’t finish.
In addition to written materials, there are more experimental equipment, research records, alchemy and potion materials. There are more than one fortune teller’s laboratory. The map hanging on the wall marks the laboratories in other locations on the island. Different laboratories Have different effects. After Shade took over, of course he couldn’t use it all, but since it was so close to home, some professional equipment was left here and he could use it at any time.
Of course, he didn’t plan to learn so many things by himself. A copy of the information related to astrology and divination will be given to Luvia. Since Luvia may have inherited and developed this part of the research in her “past life”, she is allowed to continue studying.
The “Staff of Yectrasil” cannot be developed in one cycle. She continued to study this part of the content in many sixth eras to innovate and surpass Laplace Howard himself. So in this sixth era, Shade is looking forward to Luvia’s new research results.
There are many **** and dangerous contents in research materials, books, and laboratories, and Shade himself needs to selectively screen for these. Besides these, the relics are what the witches are most concerned about.
Even Laplace Howard himself did not store hundreds of relics at one time. This was almost a self-destructive move. After inspection and inventory, a total of 19 relics were finally found in different laboratories.
Twelve of them need to be strictly contained. Even diviners used to only use them as research objects, not as objects of use.
Of the 8 relics that can be used with limited use, 2 are poet-level, 2 are clerical-level, 3 are keeper-level, and 1 is sage-level. This amount is slightly less than the relics held by Shade. But if you add two special angel-level relics [Poetic Cards] and [Soul Storybook] and a sage-level relic [Philosopher’s Stone], the situation is actually similar to Shade’s.
Shad only took two of the eight usable relics. He already has a lot of relics. After acquiring [Star Trace], there are no relics that he must obtain for the time being.
If among these eight relics, there are relics that can absorb divinity, he might be interested in taking them away as a supplement to the [Desecrated Cross] in his hand, but unfortunately there is not.
What he took away were two coins, which were also the only clerical-level relics [Thunder God’s Wrath]. Luvia once consumed this kind of coin when she was in Randall Valley.
This kind of coin is similar to the [Dandelion Coin] that Shade has obtained many times, and is considered to be currency used for transactions with elemental creatures. The coin is all silver and white, about the same size as a 1 shilling silver coin. On the front is the number 1 and a thunder pattern, and on the back is an angry human face.
On the side of the coin are engraved the words of the ancient elemental elves:
[May the thunder sweep away all evil. 】
The way to use the relic is to eject it with any extraordinary force. The coin itself will turn into thunder, similar to the effect of “Thunder Gun” and “Sunshine Gun”, but it is so powerful that it ignores the [Headon Seal] and other powerful weapons. Most defenses and can be used repeatedly. The disadvantage is that the user is easily struck by lightning, and it is not an ordinary thunderbolt.
Laplace Howard’s notebook stated that he was studying this kind of coin and hoped to install thunder protection measures on the island. But his research on this should not have made much progress. After all, on the night of the Battle of Green Lake, Shade didn’t see much lightning.
As for the only sage-level relic, it is a pocket-sized lady’s pistol [Faded Memories].
The name does not sound like a firearm, but at least it marks the key function of the pistol, which is “memory.” The pistol, like Shade’s [Gun of Kindness], is a revolver. By adjusting the rotation of the revolver, it can be divided into three modes.
The first mode is to first shoot at a certain intelligent creature to extract the memory it voluntarily contributes, and then shoot at the wall or flat ground to project the memory; or then shoot at a certain intelligent creature. The creature shoots and projects the extracted memory into the opponent’s mind, thereby manipulating the memory;
The second mode is to extract some kind of terrible and offensive memory, and the bullet has the power of memory attached to it after shooting, making it highly destructive;
The third mode is to extract the memory of a certain creature, and after shooting, it will transform into the appearance of the corresponding creature, which is equivalent to summoning a certain summoned object.
No matter which mode is selected, the pistol can only store six memories. And for the latter two attack modes, the effect of ladies shooting is much better than that of men. Laplace Howard keeps this gun in order to extract the memory of Envy Edwards after the time exploration is over.
Of course, now that the memories in the six bomb chambers have been cleared, he has left nothing behind.
The body of the pistol has smooth silk scratches, the meaning of which can be interpreted as:
【Faded memories, unchanging strength, the most beautiful you and me. 】
