Shameless Warlock
Chapter 246: Xu Nan's Reasoning
The Eve of the Gilt Okro Cup.
Barbossa, who was planning something, met Helena, who was once a friend, by accident or on purpose.
Beside Helena, he met the little sun god, the product of the alchemy of gods.
Xu Nan reasoned that from the moment he saw the little Sun God, Barbosa began to plan how to use this child to achieve his ulterior purpose.
Barbosa used his previous relationship to encourage Helena to take the little Sun God to participate in the gold-plated Oklo Cup competition.
With the means he showed, even if Helena didn't mean it, she would be easily persuaded.
This point is basically consistent with the information Xu Nan got from Helena.
The only doubt is: Did Helena voluntarily, or was she subconsciously persuaded?
Since Helena is dead, this cannot be tested either.
But none of that matters.
The important thing is that the appearance of the little sun god successfully caused an uproar in the alchemy world.
The two factions of alchemists quarreled fiercely.
With the help of "Anonymous", it is almost inevitable that someone would think of the ruling pen in Halsey Palace.
That's why there was a strong call for the Legendary Council to open the Halsey Palace and ask for a ruling to resolve the dispute among the alchemists.
It's a pity that all this was rejected by An Suli.
As a legendary wizard, Barbossa must have guessed this result.
So he still has a back hand.
...
Aurora celebration.
It is doubtful that Barbossa contacted An Lun, the goddess of magic, by some secret means, which is purely Xu Nan's own imagination.
Although the location of each Aurora Celebration is almost fixed, without the help of others, it is impossible for An Lun's avatar to slip through Stephen Sang's official inspection so easily.
Therefore, there is a high probability that Barbossa and Anlun colluded.
With the help of Barbossa, An Lun succeeded in trapping the wizards.
An Lun should have his own purpose, but unfortunately, due to various reasons, he failed.
But Barbossa succeeded.
He may have props to spread the Holkamo disease, or he used the spell of the school of prophecy to confirm that staying in the Aurora World is very easy to be infected with the Holkamo disease, so he came up with this strategy.
In short, his purpose should be to infect a large number of wizards with Holkamo disease.
In fact he did just that.
The large-scale outbreak of Holkamo disease made An Suli unable to deal with it forcefully, so she could only open Halsey Palace and invite the eye of purification.
But opening Halsey's Palace would surely ignite the flames in the hearts of the alchemists.
Please come up with the pen of the ruling, and it seems to be a matter of course to hold this debate.
That's what Barbossa wanted.
This layout is not interlocking and seamless, but it is solid and secretive.
Few people should be able to link these two seemingly independent things together.
...
Of course, the above are all Xu Nan's inferences.
This inference should be more reliable.
What interested Xu Nan more was Barbosa's motivation.
When he thought about it carefully, Barbossa seemed to have no motive to lie to himself.
Then, there is a high probability that he does not know alchemy.
"So, holding this alchemy debate itself rules out."
"This debate may be one of his purposes, but it's definitely not the main purpose."
Xu Nan looked around the audience.
In the end, he fixed his gaze on the red spirit who was still parkouring on the candle.
Horford once said that after the closure of Halsey Palace, all artifacts were sealed.
And the sealer is An Suli herself.
Could it be that Barbossa's purpose is the pen of the ruling?
Xu Nan fell into deep thought.
He mulled over his reasoning.
Of course he knew that his deduction was certainly not flawless. There are many doubts that he can find by himself.
For example, since both the Aurora Celebration and the Alchemy Controversy are dominated by Barbossa, what about the Soulstealer Legion?
An Suli once revealed that the Soul Thief Legion attacked Halsay Palace in order to occupy the control hub of the artificial crystal wall. But they were actually misled. So the question is, who was misled?
Barbossa?
Xu Nan frowned tightly. He realized that a single Barbossa obviously couldn't solve so many doubts.
What interests him even more is that, if he remembers correctly, the reason why he participated in these incidents is Xie Yutong's mission.
【Sneak attacker from the back of the head】. It directly led to the Soul Stealing Monster Legion.
【The Mystery of Stray Cats】. Although on the surface it has nothing to do with these things, it also made Xu Nan bump into the Soul Stealer disguised as Thomas.
【The whereabouts of Helena】. There is a weak relationship with the soul stealer, more clues to the alchemy dispute, and it was finally confirmed that it was Barbossa's handwriting.
"What kind of existence is the Paradise Lost system?"
"If you can predict in advance that these things can actually be strung together into a main thread, how awesome it would be..."
Xu Nan couldn't be sure either.
The secret of the Lost Paradise system is said to be directly related to Ron, and probably only the three guardians are qualified to know it.
In any case, it is an indisputable fact that these events can be connected in series by a main thread.
In order to achieve his goal, Barbossa probably used some kind of prophecy school of magic to make everyone change their perception of themselves, so as to ensure that they will not be suspected by others when they perform certain actions.
Only Artifact Master Horford was unaffected by Barbossa's spell.
His memory of Barbossa should be objective and clear.
So most people subconsciously think that this is a young guy.
Only Horford clearly remembered that this was a young man in his 300s.
As for the feeling of being blocked from inspiration that often pops up in Xu Nan's mind, it should also have something to do with Barbosa.
The other party should not be targeting himself.
Otherwise, with the strength shown by Barbosa, Xu Nan would not have such a depressed feeling at all.
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
No wonder divination spells are one of the most mysterious.
It is really awesome to be transformed into cognition and thinking without knowing it.
However, this kind of spell should also have restrictions on its use.
The spells of the School of Prophecy are also known for their many rules.
Moreover, he is protected by the Lost Paradise System, so he doesn't have to worry about losing his mind anytime soon.
Closer to home.
If it is said that Barbosa's purpose is to steal the pen of the ruling, then there is no need to make such a big show, especially if he stands up in full view.
Xu Nan further guessed that Barbosa should need the pen of the ruling to do something.
One may be something that must be done in public.
The more Xu Nan thought about it, suddenly, he thought of the black witch who had only met once before, who was suspected to be Barbera.
Barbosa and Barbera are master-student relationships.
After Barbera disappeared, Barbossa became the leader of the School of Prophecy.
Most people don't remember that they ever were mentors and apprentices.
Both of them believe it... ahh!
Thinking too much, Xu Nan found that his mind was confused.
At this moment, he suddenly found that Judgment Brush stopped its endless parkour and became very obedient and quiet.
He subconsciously looked up.
An Suli did not know when she had arrived.
She was watching Barbossa intently.
Her expression was as calm as ever, but there seemed to be something unspeakable in her eyes...
regret.
...
on stage.
Barbosa once again confirmed to everyone: "I am Anonymous."
"Recently, I have published articles about maintaining the School of Deception and Unstable Alchemy."
In the Twilight Hall, it was quiet for a while, and then more violent shouts erupted:
"Are you kidding me? How dare a wizard who doesn't understand alchemy write so many serious articles?"
"Can legendary wizards mess around? They also said that experiments have proved the existence of unstable alchemy?"
"Do you still need a ruling pen? This matter is a complete joke!"
A large number of alchemists sprayed Barbossa angrily.
Even in the face of legendary wizards, these alchemists were able to stick to their ideas and viewpoints. Not only did they not doubt their own theories because of their identities, but they began to angrily denounce Barbossa for his irresponsible behavior.
The uproar continued for a long time.
Barbossa didn't make any excuses, he stood there in a little embarrassment, and didn't intend to fight back.
He is waiting for everyone to vent his anger.
These days, the people of the Equilibrium Society have indeed been overwhelmed by him, and they have nowhere to vent their anger. They can only spray people in the air through daily scolding and fighting, which is really not fun.
"These alchemists are really not good enough."
"Just a few curse words..."
Xu Nan silently summed up the curse words used by the alchemists, and found that they were not very good at it.
At least far inferior to the refined and easy-going Horford.
Of course, in order to keep his ears clean, he pressed the magic cauldron that he couldn't bear to exhale the fragrance for a long time.
Otherwise, Barbossa will have to bear the infinite firepower of the artifact leader at this moment...
After a while.
The alchemist called "Master Hammer" on the stage motioned for everyone to be quiet.
He is the president of the Equilibrium Society.
Before Barbossa revealed his identity, he was making a concluding statement, mainly promoting the justice of equivalent alchemy and questioning whether unstable alchemy really existed.
Yes, the current trend in the mainstream alchemy world of Stephen Sang has changed, and unstable alchemy does not exist at all!
The little sun god is also a product of trickery.
All this is a deception.
Xu Nan is clear that although Unstable Alchemy exists, the prefix Unstable has to be viewed with a magnifying glass.
"I don't know how Barbossa will end up."
He glanced in An Suli's direction again.
At this moment, Barbosa finally began to speak.
"...Although I am anonymous, I did not write those articles."
"The author of these articles is my friend, M. Vignieu, a member of the Society of Deception."
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was stunned.
No way, Vignieu is not a well-known alchemist.
Even within the Institute of Deception, only some people know about it.
It is worth mentioning that, as the weak side, the Society of Deception also had a few people here today. It's just that before the debate started, he was carried away by the first aid team in the conflict with the alchemist of the Equilibrium Society.
The rest of the members probably hid themselves because they saw something bad was going on.
Among the people present, there should be people from the Deception Society, but they are all waiting and watching.
When everyone was discussing who Vignieu was, Master Hammer asked suspiciously:
"Monsieur Vignieu?"
"I saw it in Ms. Helena's file. He seems to be Helena's husband."
"Didn't he die a long time ago?"
Barbossa nodded.
He didn't make much excuses, just began to chant a complicated incantation in a low voice.
The syllables of this incantation are long and sequential, which is very different from the current lingua franca.
Accompanied by the incantation, a looming book taller than a person appeared in front of Barbossa!
"You violated a taboo."
An Suli said suddenly.
Barbossa nodded respectfully:
"After the matter is over, I will go to receive the punishment."
"Okay." An Suli didn't say anything more.
It wasn't until this moment that everyone realized that Chief Stephen Sang had also arrived!
Some people became excited, some people panicked, and some smart people fell into deep thought.
Although Stephen Sang's alchemy world is the biggest source of income for this floating city, it basically has no sense of existence in An Suli's place on weekdays. She seldom pays attention to alchemy, unless things get too exaggerated.
Today, she's clearly not here for the theoretical battle.
Barbossa turned his attention to the thick book in front of him.
Suddenly, he reached out and opened one of the pages, and then pulled out a figure from it!
It was an unkempt middle-aged man, who looked a bit overwhelmed, with only a pair of eyes, which were quite lively.
The man looked at the surrounding scenery in a daze.
"Barbossa?" He took the initiative to ask, "Where is this?"
"Aren't I in the lab?"
Barbosa said softly: "Do you still remember the articles I asked you to write?"
"Now, you can explain your point of view to them."
"Isn't this your greatest wish?"
The man froze for a moment.
He looked around, especially after seeing the Judgment Pen and An Suli, his expression became weird.
"You actually dragged me into the future."
"It seems that I didn't survive to this day."
"But I already had a hunch. It happened when you asked me to write those weird papers."
He smiled openly: "Thank you for giving me such a stage to show my research."
"Although a lot of homework is not enough, I can basically be sure."
"God's Alchemy is not a dream!"
"It's real!"
"It relies on the dark side universe world, and like the dark side universe energy absorption circle, it is the product of the power of [illusory reality] shining into reality..."
He began to chat incessantly about his subject.
Everyone stared at the man dumbfounded.
Xu Nan was also looking at him.
He is the Vigniew whom Barbossa brought out of history!
Also Helena's husband.
The cause of today's alchemy dispute was also planted by this middle-aged man back then!
Xu Nan listened attentively.
But soon, he frowned and found that things were not simple.
"I don't seem to understand at all!"
In Xu Nan's heart, there was a moan of a scumbag.
