Chapter 401 400 The Cruelest Curse
Chapter 401 400. The cruelest curse
"Now I am somewhere between a summoned creature and a normal life form..." Vanessa lowered her head and looked at her legs, carefully observed her translucent body, and said in a calm tone, "In a way you can understand. To describe...I am a little more advanced than yours."
For a moment, she came uninvited, holding her chin, lying in the void, looking at Vanessa curiously.
"Higher than me, Lu Yu, what does she mean?"
"Don't worry, the moment the connection with the Crystal Giant is cut off, it will end completely. The disaster... is over. We still have some time to chat and... see the end together." At the end of the sentence, Vanessa's voice sounded slightly There was some trembling, and the sadness in his eyes flashed away.
She turned her head and looked at Lu Yu with a smile, as if encouraging him to express his guess.
Lu Yu felt the familiar, vague aura of the summoned creature on Vanessa, which was so weak that he thought it was an illusion. Now listening to her description, he became more and more convinced that his guess was correct.
"You are not a complete summoned object...you just borrowed the form of summoning or reappeared through the channel?" Lu Yu asked curiously, "Although it is irrelevant, I still want to know...Vanessa...the teacher has also been involved in the field of summoning?"
"Elves have a long lifespan, so they have free time to delve into new areas. Of course, I am also a little confident in my learning speed, so summoning is a genre that does not have too many challenges for me, especially when I am more than 600 years old. years ago.”
"That's not right... But if Senior Vanessa is really a summoner, why is there no you in the Summoning Temple? Six hundred years ago, you had already predicted the recovery that might come in the future..." Lulu was surprised.
"I'm just learning for fun, so naturally I don't have any corresponding contribution. It's not surprising." Vanessa chuckled. "It's nice to see the lovely younger generations replenishing this dry river hundreds of years later." water source.”
"As you said, I, who was awakened by his consciousness, have now completed my temporary resurrection in this way." Vanessa said.
"temporary?"
Vanessa smiled and nodded, but did not explain immediately. Instead, she tried to wave her hands, as if she wanted to mobilize the magic power.
After failing twice in a row, she was so embarrassed that she shook her head mockingly, and then closed her eyes.
The same power as when she arrived began to emerge, and a huge light curtain enveloped the three people and the crystal giant, and the unfinished memories began to appear again.
"Watch it until the end... It was too sudden. He didn't give me the memory of Sayer's last moments."
"Maybe... I didn't give it on purpose." Vanessa murmured.
Sayer succeeded. No one knew that this great magician who had never touched puppet making in Meera's story completed the first time in history to replace body parts through puppetry, and it was also the most important heart. .
Today, six hundred years later, puppet masters are still troubled by the sudden necrosis and decay after organ replacement. There is still no systematic discussion of "rejection", and no puppet master has noticed the use of magical means to cure it. And remediation, all successful treatment is a matter of rolling dice, and there is a thin line between success and failure.
They argued endlessly over who was the first great pioneer in history to successfully use puppets to replace organs. The schools even did not hesitate to smear each other and throw dirty water on each other. They did not hesitate to carve out a moral high ground outside the academic battlefield and accuse the other party of recommending him. The pioneers behaved badly.
After seeing Sayer change his heart for him, he stood up staggeringly with a pale face, used healing magic to heal the horrific, bloody wound in front of his chest, and then walked to the wooden table next to Vanessa as if nothing had happened and continued to improve. After hearing this, Lu Yu suddenly smiled.
The selfish fools fighting for their blood and blood seem particularly ridiculous in front of people like Sayer, like clowns on the stage who try their best to make the audience laugh.
Sayer, who was no longer tortured by angina pectoris, was still burdened by his old and decaying body, but his speed of movement had been greatly improved. Soon, he was repeatedly castrated, and the infection that was confirmed to be safe was castrated by Sayer again. With the help of a large number of sea fish and hares, he finally determined that this was the safest version. Vanessa would never complain or blame him, and would be willing to live after waking up.
Maybe it’s the boost in confidence brought about by the change of heart, or maybe it’s because he can’t wait to see Vanessa’s smiling face. Sayer, this legendary ninth level is completing one after another at an extremely rare speed that is even dreamed of by magicians of the same period. I dare not think about it, or even conceive of the magical magic that I have never imagined.
In order to create the most perfect "information receiving and transmission center" that could withstand the test of time, he used the existing death row prisoners to test repeatedly until he experimented on death row prisoners from several important city-states in Melias and turned them into human beings before finally becoming the Crystal Giant. and Butterfly filled in the huge "core" that was so complex that it made Lu Yu and Lulu dizzy just looking at it.
This array that drives the operation of two expensive and unique dolls is even equipped with powerful self-destruct patterns. Once the array deployed by the dolls detects that the infection is out of control, they will fall into the depths of the sea and into the trench. Complete the self-destruction to ensure that the doll does not leave any complete wreckage from the inside to the outside that can be studied by outsiders.
Although ordinary magicians cannot glimpse the subtleties of his magic, even if there is a chance, he is unwilling to leave his knowledge and experience to them - he does not trust humans... no, he does not trust any race!
The only consequence of a race knowing and understanding a magic secret that surpasses the entire continent is that this land will be engulfed by endless war.
The transformation of the puppet is extremely cumbersome, which makes Sayer exhausted. During this period, he walked all over the surrounding continents, changing his name again and again to go to Collet to collect rare materials.
After two years, the crystal giant and the butterfly finally took shape. This is a masterpiece that he could never complete without a heart change.
Sayer was extremely satisfied. He drank the fine wine bought from Melias. He had always been solemn and hard-faced, but at this moment, his wrinkles finally relaxed.
But when he turned around and saw Vanessa who was still sleeping, Sayer stood up immediately. He seemed to be frightened, and the wine in the glass fell to the ground. After realizing that she was still sleeping, Sayer, who was relieved, was full of loneliness on his face, and his drinking movements became slower and slower.
He poured all the wine to the captive hare in front of Vanessa, washed the wine container and put it away, and no longer touched it.
Seeing Sayer scaring himself, Vanessa smiled, and she shed tears like Sayer in the light curtain.
He suffered too much, he could have avoided torturing himself like this...
Originally Sayer considered to combine the crystal giant and the butterfly into one, forming an "information center" together, but at the last minute, he gave up the idea of combining the two dolls.
"Tolerance, there must be tolerance!" Sayer said firmly.
Vanessa's knowledge, Sayer's genius ideas, and the repeated refinement and synthesis of current era materials have made the two dolls and their makers have combat power beyond the times, but no one can predict the future. For Sayer, the risk means that Vanessa's possibility of resurrection is one point smaller.
Sayer modified the magic circle, the butterfly giant separated, and the two dolls could independently complete the work of information transmission and reception, and could communicate at a very long distance. Even if a very special situation occurs and one of the dolls cannot function normally, the remaining one can continue to execute his will and complete the ritual magic of resurrection.
Not only that, he also designed a magic array for the puppet to activate repeatedly, and this powerful magic array is matched with the [Demon Destroying and Magic Storage in One], which only a few eighth-level people in Lu Yu's era have touched upon.
Now, Sayer only has one last problem left - the magic index of the next era.
This is a hard condition for the puppet to be automatic. Only by awakening in an era that meets the magic concentration and completing the ritual magic, Vanessa can be resurrected and even become the first god.
For others, this is an unsolvable problem and can only be guessed, because the several magic tides since records have brought earth-shaking changes, and the civilization inheritance of each continent has been interrupted. The texts and classics carrying history have been lost or destroyed, and some have no systematic records at all, because in the previous era, some concepts were still blank.
The immortal species such as elves and dragons provide Sayer, who disguises himself to conceal his identity, with ambiguous, subjective, and vague narratives.
Their answers were similar to, if you ask him if he had eaten, he would say it rained that day, and if you ask him what kind of rain it rained, he would say the ground was shining.
If he was young, Sayer would not hesitate to use magic to strangle the other person's throat and let him think clearly before speaking, but after meeting Vanessa, he changed a little.
He learned to understand the wonderful way of thinking of these races, and the seemingly unreasonable answers that were indeed related in their cognition.
After getting some help from literature, Sayer walked towards a mountain wrapped in clouds and mist. In the hazy mist, two huge "suns" shone.
Vanessa whispered: "Cloud Sea Forest, Fagutar..."
This is the largest dragon that Lu Yu and Lulu have ever seen. His body is connected to the mountain, his tail hangs down the ridge, and his body is covered with green vegetation and bright flowers. Butterflies, bees, and birds don't care about his momentum that can scare ordinary creatures to death, and they are busy above.
The forest surrounded by clouds and mist is also a giant dragon.
A gleam of light flashed through Lu Yu's mind: "Huo Gu... is he imitating it?"
Fagoutar's behavior of carrying green plants on his body and transforming into a moving forest seems to be similar to Huo Gu's way of protecting the small tree on his body.
Sayer seemed to have met Fagutar before. Fagutar did not intimidate him, but just stared at him silently, with a look of composure as a winner and sympathy for Sayer.
"Sayer... great human magician, sixty years have passed, and we meet again. This time, there is no elf beside you... why?"
"She's asleep." Sayer raised his head and looked directly at the dragon's head that was gradually drooping.
"It seems that it is not what I understand as 'sleep'."
"For me... she did something stupid. I am trying to wake her up. As the oldest life on the land I have walked on, your memory is precious to me."
"How long has she slept?"
"Twenty years..."
Fagoutar sighed, and the thunderous sound echoed over the forest.
"Sixty years ago, I advised you..."
"But I love her, and she loves me too. Is it because of the stupid lifespan..."
"This is not stupid, but the experience we have summed up when we are unable to solve the problem, and you have tasted the deepest pain..."
"I once loved a girl. She was beautiful, with clear and bright eyes... She walked on top of my body, happily picking flowers, mushrooms, and fruits." Fagutar looked at the human villages in the distance. "She knew I existed and I never rejected her singing."
"One day, she asked me if I was lonely. I laughed at her stupidity. It was like a joke." Fagutar snorted stubbornly, but his eyes were unusually soft. "The dragon is proud of being powerful. Loneliness is our "
"But she still insisted that I was lonely, and would come and talk to me every day, and would stand in front of me and sing songs I had never heard."
"She said she liked dragons, and I said I could introduce her to companions. She laughed and called me a stupid dragon, and then ran away like a rabbit."
Fagutar's eyes stopped wandering and returned to Sayer again.
"Time passes day by day, just like the wind turns the time forward, and the singing brings the future. She is right in front of me, singing and dancing, and grows up."
"One day, she suddenly told me that she would never be able to accompany me again because her father had found a future destination for her."
Sayer's always calm face had ups and downs.
"I didn't understand the euphemism in her words. She told me that if she changed her mind, she would wait for me in the village."
"You didn't go?"
"No." Fagutar said, "Just like you can't understand that the dragon said to you that the shiny ground means heavy rain and the sky and the earth are like mirrors, I can't understand what 'destination' is. A long life doesn't mean As long as I know everything, being proficient in every race’s language is obviously not on my learning list.”
Fagutar's voice dropped: "At first, I thought she was too busy with work and couldn't come again.
"Then I guessed she was disappointed because of my indifference, but I didn't care because I never change based on anyone's ideas."
"Immediately afterwards, I found that I seemed to miss the melodious singing voice, although I never understood the meaning in detail..."
"I angrily refused to admit that I was nostalgic for something that I didn't need to care about at all. But the more I wanted to forget it and the less I wanted to admit it, the more I discovered that I...actually cared about it."
"So I left the mountain, spread my wings, and came to the village."
"I carefully considered my words and tried to be tactful, so that those trembling and fearful souls could feel my sincerity, and then I asked about her."
Sayer had already sat on the ground at some point, looking at Fagutar sadly.
"While they were looking at each other, an old man stood up. He lowered his head and told me in fear..." Fagutar said, "She has been married for forty years."
"Forty years ago, she left the village and went to a distant place."
