Sine's voice suddenly became excited, and even his fingers were trembling slightly!
That is a fragment dropped by the Geometry Tiansi into the material world. It contains one-fifth of the power of the Tiansi and symbolizes the absolute control over the element of "water" - the icosahedron of water. !
But as a devout pursuer of the path of wisdom, Sine is not too greedy for its power. It would be better to say that "power" itself is a "thing that has been abandoned" that is rejected by extraordinary people on the path of wisdom.
As early as when they were mage apprentices and just entered the mage tower, they had been taught this core concept -
- Spells must not be a symbol of violence.
A mage must not overwhelm others and call himself a powerful person just because his spells have extraordinary power. Spells cannot be researched and strengthened for the purpose of demonstrating destructive power - all spells are essentially by-products of the pursuit of wisdom, which are symbols of mystery.
Just as mages discover a new truth, they tend not to disclose it - they just need to discover and keep the secret, and when the secret is rediscovered by others, they can gain access to the path. Force feedback. On the contrary, if the mage particularly likes to show his holiness in front of others, they will not be very strong.
Because of this, mages are usually accustomed to maintaining a sense of mystery. Many mages who don't like the scientific research environment of the Mage Tower will choose to live in seclusion deep in the forest or in the bustling city.
Although it is not known when the idea that "spells cannot be used to demonstrate violence" originated...but all the mage towers in the Narcissus Principality have exactly the same inheritance. And the mages who violated this concept in the past have all paid the price without exception - even just brushing aside.
During the Earth-Splitting War, because the alchemists came up with many new inventions for combat, and the necromancers and demonologists were active on the battlefield, these mages who were steadily researching There was a moment of great panic.
The first generation Narcissus at that time was the president of the Palace Alchemy Association and the vice president of the Mage Association. The title of Duke on Duke Hircine was a title given by the emperor at the last moment in the late empire. Therefore he is also the last nobleman of the empire.
But even so, this extremely powerful mage is not the first person in the Mage Association. Because "Leonardo", the president of the Mage Association, is recognized as the strongest mage in the Herasl Empire.
He originally planned to shift his research direction to the direction of armaments - he was trying to research an "ultimate weapon that could destroy all wars."
With Hircine's help, he cracked the technology of the rune colossi on the battlefield. Those alchemical products can emit amazing lasers... which has also become the source of the automatic defense device on the mage tower today. But this does not satisfy Master Leonardo. He plans to continue researching weapons until he develops a "weapon that can destroy anyone when used by anyone", thereby ending this disgusting war.
But just when his invention was about to be completed, he suddenly went crazy for no apparent reason, became a miserable madman, and finally disappeared completely.
At first some people thought he was cursed, while others thought he was driven crazy by the assassin's poison. Others say that the alchemists were jealous of his wisdom, so they kidnapped him in order to torture him and get the location of the rest of his manuscripts... This is the most ridiculous statement that is immediately known to be a rumor, even in The Mage Tower, which respected "wisdom", once became the mainstream concept, and even triggered a century-old hostility between mages and alchemists.
The manuscript left by the master of Leonardo Tower became a treasure, but it still followed the secret code of the mages and was not published.
Until later, only a few archmages knew that he had become Weizhe's secret apostle. But he still personally warned these few archmages to stop studying work "related to strength and violence."
Because of this, mages always keep secret about "extra power". This is also the reason why when the Star Antimony people invaded, the mages surrendered very smoothly - since we can't actively pursue power, why bother fighting? Anyway, I can't beat him again and again.
As the chief, Sine can be said to be the reserve for the tower master. Naturally, he also knew about the existence of this taboo.
However, this "Icosahedron of Water" has another special meaning besides its unparalleled power!
——As we all know, fragments of the Geometry Temple will only appear next to the smartest scholars and inventors.
To put it another way, whoever...whoever gets the fragments of the Geometry Tiansi and does not escape will be the smartest scholar and inventor in this world!
The tower masters of Narcissus Principality are basically at the fourth level, and only a few are at the fifth level. But even those fifth-level mages must have special respect for Lord Sandro Tower.
The reason is very simple - it's because the master of Sandro Tower has a "Tetrahedron of Fire" in his hand!
He is a person recognized by Jiu Tiansi!
Even Sine's teacher is now the most powerful mage in the Narcissus Principality - the old mage who has survived since the founding of the country, one of the few fifth-level mage lords, Lord Yolande... They all felt strongly jealous that Lord Sandro Tower could be recognized by Ji Tiansi.
He cursed the other party in private more than once, thinking that Sandro was just lucky. If it were placed elsewhere, Sine had no doubt that he would snatch this treasure. However, this is the Narcissus Principality, and the mages are all decent people and act with great self-respect.
Whoever does such a disgraceful thing of bullying a small one will probably be laughed at by everyone for being "in a hurry" - although they must be jealous in their hearts, whoever comes forward at this time will They will be attacked in groups again.
And now, a wild water icosahedron is right in front of you!
But he would never dare to snatch it - he had already guessed Aiwass's identity the moment the "Pope" accidentally said the name "Cardinal Galatea" in his heart. .
Although he looks different, has antlers on his head, and appears at the wrong time... there is no doubt that the blond young man in front of him is the eternal pope of this generation.
He is not exaggerating in the slightest, the code name of "Pope" is his true identity!
If he offends the Pope or the Cardinal, he may be in catastrophe.
But even so, Sine still couldn't contain the swelling greed in his heart——
"Mr. Pope...Mr. Pope!"
Sine was almost eager. , said in a daze: "Can you give me this thing? I am willing to pay any price for it - any! All my property, my loyalty, my soul... No, let me touch it first Touch it? Just touch it..."
He had to consider whether this would be a unique opportunity in his life.
Aiwass looked at the old mage and was very surprised.
These mages are often pure-hearted, reclusive and independent. He rarely saw such a crazy mage...
He couldn't help but ask: "Do you really want this thing? Aren't you mages unable to pursue power?"
"No, it's not for power...how dare it be 'power'..."
Sine waved his hands again and again, and tried his best to defend himself as if he was electrocuted: "I can't do anything, even if I got it , and won’t use its power..."
"Could it be that you...want to study Tiansi?" Aiwass asked.
The Water Shards themselves are not of much use to Aiwass - what he needs most is the Fire Shards, and they are not in a hurry.
He has not yet subdued the water attribute beast of sin, and the ceremony of the Ring of Ending has not yet been implemented. The current upper limit of the world is the sixth energy level, and it is still too early to make a breakthrough.
Aiwass originally planned to give this treasure to Sherlock.
After all, it is said that this thing will only appear in the hands of smart people, and Aiwass feels that Sherlock is a smart man, and this thing suits him very well. It just so happens that Sherlock doesn't have a staff yet... The fire fragment can be used to evolve the little butterfly, so the water fragment is just right for him. Although Sherlock may not necessarily want to.
It is for this reason that Aiwass did not touch it during the entire process. Didn't even check its properties.
This is why Aiwass is worried that he is not that "smart" - or that he is not crazy enough in his wisdom path, so that he will let this thing teleport away directly.
——Although Aiwass himself doesn’t value this thing too much, he is also very cautious and doesn’t want it to fall into the hands of other people with ulterior motives. Just like the child of the moon.
If the combat effectiveness of this thing can be flexibly used, it can basically make the fifthThe extraordinary beings of the sixth energy level exert the power of the sixth energy level. For single-attribute spellcasters who are compatible, it is almost close to the bonus of the Holy Crown for priests - the Holy Crown allows Aiwass to communicate with the Pillar God anytime and anywhere, which is equivalent to getting all the Pillar Gods and Tiansi 's private number.
Although Sine seems a little bit crazy, for a mage, he is already very humble. If he could give Aiwass a good enough reason, Aiwass wouldn't mind giving this thing to him - it was just to find a better meeting gift for Sherlock.
After all, after not seeing each other for several months, he became the Pope when we met again. At times like this, you have to give your brothers something good to show that you are really awesome!
What made Aiwass a little disappointed was that Sine gradually shrank in the face of Aiwass’s questions.
"No, it's not...how dare you, I'm not a transcendent..."
The old mage smiled bitterly, but felt extremely regretful in his heart.
Why not yourself! Why couldn't he be teleported away by himself?
If he were to explore the path by himself, if he was teleported away... wouldn't he be the one who can get this treasure? !
"You are not doing it for fighting or research. So what do you want it for?"
Aiwass asked in confusion.
“With it,” Sine murmured, “won’t people know that I am a genius?
“—Without it, how can people understand my wisdom! ? "
As he spoke, his tone became more and more crazy.
Electric light crackled in the depths of his pupils, gradually revealing a hint of deep blue that was almost purple.
< p>Ai Huas suddenly became serious...Sine's mental state was not quite right.
But at this moment, Sine suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He collapsed and gasped for air - after all, he still didn't dare to do anything to Aiwass, so his eyes cleared up again just before he was about to go crazy.
Aiwass also guessed him. What does that fearful look mean?
So he chuckled: "It's not like I won't give it to you..." "I can give you a chance." The Decahedron is of no use to me. I want the [Fire Tetrahedron] in the hands of 'Old Sandro'. If you bring that thing, I can give it to you anyway. Obtaining two fragments at the same time, you understand, right? It’s not suitable to show it in front of others if you get the tetrahedron of fire... But you can use it to show off, how great is that?”
...Are you, are you, what the Pope should say?
Sine was shocked.
How come this pope still confuses people? !
The most important thing is that what he said is really tempting...
Sine struggled to maintain rationality, but stared intently at the [Icosahedron of Water], Pupil bottom againA hint of deep purple appeared: "But... Master Sandro Tower is a very famous person... If we take action against him... And I may not be able to..."
Cardinal Galatea's A voice sounded softly in the heart of Aiwass, a whisper that only Aiwass could hear through illusion: "His abnormality comes from the tower itself."
"I understand."
p>Aiwass also said the same thing, and only Cardinal Galatea could hear this sentence.
And he looked at Sine with a smile, which put the last straw on his shaky rationality: "Old Sandro is dead. During the promotion ceremony, I witnessed his death with my own eyes.< /p>
“In other words, [Fire Tetrahedron] does not have a legal successor. So, do you understand? ”
“——I do it, I do it! ”
Sine responded without thinking, his eyes becoming fanatical.
At that moment, Aiwass realized clearly that there was a strong transcendent power pouring in.
It comes from the top of this tower. The transcoding has been serious recently, which makes us more motivated and updates faster. Thank you for your help.
