Lord of Glory

Chapter 7 The Philosopher's Stone

Paladin climbed out of the tunnel in a state of embarrassment. Collapsed in the library. As soon as he went up, runes appeared at the entrance of the tunnel and turned into flat ground. Only the engraved seal remained, proving that everything just happened was not a fantasy, but a reality.

Paladin grabbed the scroll in his arms and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that it was not lost. Just as he was preparing to escape from this place of right and wrong. Suddenly there were rapid footsteps outside the door! Paladin stomped his feet and was about to dodge, but it was too late.

A guard covered in armor and holding a hook-and-scythe gun saw Paladin at the first sight. He immediately pointed the tip of the gun at Paladin and shouted: "Who are you! The dean ordered all students to return to the dormitory. What are you doing here!" Paladin unconsciously said Taking a step back, your mind raced with solutions. But he was a little horrified in his heart: "The dean ordered martial law? Could it be about the Ripley scroll? Does he also know something? It's not good!"

The guard who was on guard suddenly saw ice shards scattered on the ground beside the door. There were pieces of meat and blood in the ice shards. There are even eyeballs and hair. His eyes immediately opened wide! At this moment, Paladin's eyes flashed fiercely. If you don't move at this time, when will you wait?

Paladin stepped forward in one stride. Picking up a porcelain vase on the table, he covered the guard's facade and photographed it! There was a snap, and the guard didn't even have time to shout, and he fell to the ground directly. Without any hesitation, Paladin immediately took off the guard's armor and clothes and put them on. Looking around and seeing that there was no one else in the aisle, Paladin immediately picked up the guard from the sack used to hold books under the table. He quickly rushed to his small attic with resistance in his body.

"Look around! If you see a student or tutor who is out, execute him immediately! This is the dean's order!" Running with difficulty in the corridor, Paladin immediately heard hundreds of guards gathered below, listening to the leader's instructions. .

The former immediately agreed, took a long sword and a hook and sickle gun, and began to spread out and search. "We have to hurry up, we can't stay here any longer. We must escape from this place." Paladin, wearing armor, made up his mind, put more strength on his feet, and ran towards the tower quickly.

With a bang, the dilapidated door closed tightly. Paladin dropped the guard. Without saying a word, he began to take off his armor. "Huhuhu..."

A suit of twenty kilograms of armor carried a man for so long. The sweat on Paladin's body was soaked through his clothes, and he lay on the ground panting as if exhausted. But now, there was no time for him to rest. Paladin decisively took out the Ripley scroll and spread it out. He immediately took out the carving knife and started carving the magic circle on the scroll.

According to Paladin's self-taught techniques for many years, carving a magic circle is very easy for him. With the carving knife still open, Paladin looked at the four positions on the magic circle holding the four elements. He immediately took the water bottle on the table and poured some on the icosahedron carved with it. Then he took a wooden stick, lit it, and placed it on the tetrahedron. Sprinkle the soil from the flowerpot onto the cube. Then he gritted his teeth, dragged the fainting guard to the center of the array, jumped away immediately, and blew gently at the octahedron in the last position...

Quiet... still quiet. Nothing happens! Paladin's face showed a look of panic, and he immediately took the scroll and took a closer look. He murmured: "Why...why doesn't the magic circle activate? Why doesn't it activate?"

Paladin's pupils shrank in an instant as he carefully looked at every inch of the text on Ripley's scroll, because he saw the human-shaped heart in the center that symbolizes God and the Lord! "Yes, heart, how can a moving heart be without blood! My blood, my philosopher's stone! My blood emblem!"

As Paladin murmured to himself, Huanran thought of what the instructor said when he eavesdropped on his lecture: "To master the activation of the magic circle, you must have the key. It is the key to unlocking the operation of the magic circle. You must control your own magic circle, What kind of key should you design?”

Paladin suddenly opened his mind and immediately picked up the carving knife from the ground. Without hesitation, he made an opening on his finger and pointed it at the chest of the guard, but he hesitated. "Heraldry...what heraldry is it...Ah! God! The Philosopher's Stone against God...Hahaha!"

Paladin's face was twisted ferociously, and he quickly drew a bloody reverse cross on the guard's chest without hesitation! Buzz! The magic circle on the floor immediately lit up with a dazzling red light and made a tinnitus rumbling sound! Paladin immediately jumped away and looked at all this crazily.

Maybe it was the sound of the magic circle that woke up the sleeping guard. The guard with a splitting headache reluctantly opened his eyes, but he happened to see Paladin standing in front of him, his eyes filled with madness and lust, and he was smiling happily! This is the last look.

"Uh-huh!" The guard instantly felt as if his whole body was being bitten by countless mouths, and the pain penetrated his bone marrow! I couldn't help but scream! Paladin suddenly saw that the body and blood of the guard were melting at a rapid speed, turning into a skeleton in an instant. The flesh and blood that turned into smoke and dust immediately gathered together. It condensed into a small, almost invisible light red stone, which fell to the floor with a crisp ticking sound.

"Hahaha, hahaha!" Paladin immediately stepped forward and grabbed it in his hand. Vaguely, it seems that one can feel the screams of restless souls coming from the Philosopher's Stone. Paladin, who was full of excitement, suddenly calmed down, and a new question lingered in his mind: "The Philosopher's Stone is made. But just because it is the Philosopher's Stone, I did not gain powerful power. At best, it is just free to decompose , it’s just a tool for reorganization...wait! Fusion! After decomposition and then reorganization, isn’t it fusion?”

Paladin's eyes flashed! If the Philosopher's Stone can fuse regardless of materials, doesn't it mean that even magic elements can be directly fused? "Hahahaha! Fusion with magic elements is so bold! This is simply the power of the gods, the power of the gods!" Paladin had a crazy look on his face, and it was obvious that he had no hesitation in trying this bold idea!

But then, Paladin felt a little embarrassed. He was so poor that he had never even seen a magic scroll, not to mention the magic core that stores magic energy! Where can I find magic for fusion? And just when Paladin was secretly anxious, time had flown by unconsciously. Soon it was early morning. The first ray of sunlight broke through the thick clouds, shined directly into the window of Paladin's room, and sprinkled on the table.

"Huh?" Paladin suddenly smelled a faint burning smell and couldn't help but look back. Zheng Zheng saw the magnifying glass on the table, which focused the light into a single point through the increasingly powerful sunlight. It hit the white paper and burned a small hole.

That burning smell came from here. "This..." The corners of Paladin's mouth gradually cracked into a sinister arc. He doesn't have magic elements, so I wonder if sunlight can be fused? To put it bluntly, the holy magic of the Holy See is almost the same in nature as sunlight!
