Chapter 2503 Clone

"Have you really thought it through?" Qiao An reminded it unbearably, "If you turn into a cold and ignorant stone, it will be too late for you to regret it!"

"I've been thinking about this these days, and I've made up my mind." The mental fluctuations from the Enlightenment Beetle were sad and solemn.

Joan wanted to persuade him not to be so pessimistic, but he didn't know what to say, so he stretched out his hand to hold the beetle's cracked back, cast a 6-ring "petrification", and finally did what it wanted, turning it into... No, Is to change back, a stone.

The enlightenment beetle's body creaked slightly, and became gray and hard at the young mage's fingertips, making him recall the scene when Duo'er cut off the construction circuit.

"Dr. Vader, why did your friend give up his life and become a stone statue voluntarily?" The Phase Queen's eyes were full of confusion, "Isn't it good to be alive?"

"I don't know." Joan held up the stone beetle and sighed long, "Maybe life is too heavy for it, and it is already overwhelmed."

"In this orchard, I haven't seen any other beetles as smart as it, and it doesn't associate with those ordinary beetles. It must be a very lonely life." The phase queen said thoughtfully, "I Guess it voluntarily gave up its life, probably because it was too lonely."

"Fortunately, I have you, a knowledgeable friend, and many daughters by my side. Although they are not very smart, they are my own flesh and blood after all. They have added a lot of concern and trouble to me, and have also saved me from loneliness."

The phase bee queen muttered to herself, staring at the bee colony flying in the forest in the distance, her huge and beautiful compound eyes were full of maternal love, shining brightly under the setting sun.

Joan sat on a branch and was lost in thought until the sunset disappeared at the end of the sea of ​​clouds before saying goodbye to the queen bee. He made a special trip to the library on the fourth floor of Yunzhong City and put the beetle that had turned into a stone statue back on the desk—just like he did many years ago. The way it looked when I first saw it.

"Goodbye, friend."

Waving goodbye to the beetle that was unable to respond for the last time, Joan walked out of the silent library, took the "wind ladder" to the alchemy laboratory on the fifth floor, and decided to use the ready-made equipment here to create a useful physical body for himself .

During the polar trip two years ago, Joan collected a large amount of green ice from the mine near Baixiong Village, and it happened to be useful right now, so he took out a small piece of sugar cube from the storage bag and put it in the cloud giant's special On the experimental table, the "shrinking technique" was released, and a small piece of blue ice expanded rapidly, turning into a large light blue ice block weighing two tons in a blink of an eye, exuding a bitter cold air.

Joan rubbed his hands together, approached the test bench, drew 5 "Sid's mana", and performed "uncanny craftsmanship" on the large piece of green ice, processing it into a rectangular ice coffin.

Exercising the 8-ring spell "Vajra Fist" that he learned a few days ago, Joan created a black and blue, shining golden palm out of thin air. side.

Next, the young mage rolled up his sleeves, took out the syringe, and drew out a tube of blood from his own vein as the material for casting the 8-level "cloning technique" of the necromancy school.

After returning to Yunzhong City for more than half a month, he was obsessed with learning magic, researching magic tools and alchemy, accompanied by the ancient book daddy and the activation mantra siblings, his life was quite fulfilling, as if he could always be like this. Live without worries.

It wasn't until this afternoon, after encountering the Enlightenment Beetle, that Qiao An suddenly realized that he hadn't returned to Cloud City to escape reality.

This is just a camp for him to rest temporarily. In order to obtain the peace of soul and relieve his confusion, he must muster the courage to leave this warm and comfortable refuge and embark on a journey alone, going deep into the unknown realm shrouded in endless darkness, trying To look for that ray of dawn that may not have existed at all.

It is an objective fact that the future is full of difficulties and obstacles, but this does not mean giving up hope and looking for a dead end.

Before setting off, Qiao An must make full preparations. Considering the possibility of accidental death, in the worst case, it is acceptable to lose his personal equipment. In the "refuge" in Midtown, prepare a clone for yourself in advance that can be resurrected from the corpse.

Qiao An poured his blood into the ice coffin, and the blood spread slowly on the smooth ice surface, forming a pool of blood.

Then, Joan placed a diamond the size of a little finger in the center of the pool of blood, and began to cast a spell on the blood-stained diamond.

The casting process of the "cloning technique" was quite complicated, and it took an entire hour to complete.

"Hráve!"

In the end, he chanted a mantra symbolizing "flesh", and Qiao An successfully activated the "cloning technique", and the diamond shone brightly in response, making the ice coffin crystal clear.

The blood in the ice coffin was also injected with vitality by magic, wriggling scarlet tentacles, wrapped the glowing diamonds, trembling slightly, like a pulsating heart, or like an undeveloped fetus in a mother's womb.

Joan performed the "mythical water creation technique" to create a large amount of clear holy water, filled the ice coffin as the culture medium for the flesh and blood, and then closed the coffin lid and cast a spell to seal it.

The flesh and blood in the ice coffin grew extremely fast. The next afternoon, Joan came to the alchemy laboratory again. Although he had expected it, he was still a little surprised by what he saw.

In just one day, his clone had matured.

Across the translucent blue ice, one could see a five-foot tall, well-proportioned naked man lying in the ice coffin, his body unconsciously floating in the holy water.

Joan cast a spell to lift the seal, lifted the lid of the coffin, and looked closely at the clone he had created.

This body is exactly the same as his own, and his age is also 19 years old.

However, during his trip to Niflheim two years ago, Joan had taken the "Spring of Youth", and since then, his biological age has stopped increasing.

This clone reproduces his strange bloodline and right eye disability, and also inherits the magic power from the "fountain of youth", so that he can remain young forever. It looks like he is only 17 years old.

Joan stared at the naked clone in the ice coffin for a long time, carefully scrutinized the face exactly like himself, at first felt a little scary, and then had a strange idea.

If this is on the stage of a drama, or if I am a character in a novel, then the dormant clone in front of me is like a foreshadowing planted in advance, and sooner or later it will wake up and come in handy.

Fortunately, only fictional stories pay attention to the coherence of echoes before and after, but real life is often illogical. Joan would rather that the clone in the ice coffin sleep forever.
