The Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich

"The rules of the plane? In fact, it is easy to understand. A mature plane is like a mansion with an owner. The creator is the owner of the mansion. The gods with priesthood are the managers of all aspects. Sprinkle water regularly (rain), and some people in charge of staff and residents rotate (reincarnation). If you create a position and job to make the mansion run better and get the approval of the owner, you will naturally You will become a god, and as long as this house is still there, you will naturally be immortal. —— "The Game of Space and Time (Third Book Conjecture on Unsolved Mysteries in the World)" by Thrace Solomon."

Known as the greatest space master, Mr. Thrace, his understanding of space and time laid the foundation for the research of the kingdom of wizards in these two cutting-edge fields, but in the first volume of time and the second space When it became a compulsory course for all mages who study space, time, plane summoning, illusion, etc., the third volume caused its evaluation to drop rapidly, directly turning it from a wise great sage to one of the few crazy mages in history.

As for whether what he said is true, whether the assassins sent by the church in the end really killed one of the strongest mages in the world, it is already unknown, but the old mage has not appeared in the world for more than 300 years .

But now, the third volume can only be found in the circle of old mages. After all, he explained the mysteries of the gods too easily, and faith and longing need a sufficient distance, and it is difficult for anyone to understand. Treat the guy who burps when he eats and farts when he sleeps as a fanatical object of belief, even if he is indeed a god, maybe. This is another way of saying that vision is the furthest distance from reality.

Although mages have never lacked faith in gods. But at least know the severity. Knowledge is power, but it is enough to know some things by oneself. Before breaking with the gods, there is no need to do too much. Knowledge related to planes, time, order, priesthood, etc., is basically a master's ability Contact the patent now.

As for the rules of the plane, in the forbidden third book, Mr. Thrace actually has a more direct explanation.

"Under normal circumstances, the real body of the gods cannot reach the world of Ashe, and can only remotely control their followers and incarnations for indirect command. This is because the owner of the house does not have permission to invite these guys in, fearing that these guys are powerful and powerful. Rough-handed guys break furniture and beat servants. But in a special case, the means of God's intervention in this world will be more direct, that is, in a certain period of time, all restrictions will be lifted, and outsiders can easily Entering this house, even the 'housekeepers' can do what they want. Yes. That's called jihad,"

"According to the data we have collected over the years, the ups and downs of the elemental tides are beyond the grasp of mortals and gods. This is more like an exchange mechanism between the Ashe plane and the four-element plane. In this During the high tide of elemental tides, the whole world seems to be updating and replacing something, perhaps, this is a replacement mechanism of the world itself. Well, I have no evidence,

This is just speculation, but the appearance of new species, new minerals, new plants, and new animals after each jihad seems to prove my theory. "

"During the jihad, the rulers of the previous generation had a high chance of being defeated, or died too much to dominate the world, and their survivors would also have a weird natural reduction in their birth rate. On the other hand, the entire Ninety-five percent of the intelligent creatures in the plane will die. After the holy war is over, the new dominant race will usher in a new generation of births, and the living space left by other creatures will become their homeland. It's like planning to give prizes to the victors. What can best prove my statement is not just the birth wave of our humans after the last war, but the large number of elves after winning the previous holy war. Newborns, they are a notoriously low-born race, and after the last jihad, their birth rate was an order of magnitude lower."

"... If you look back, it's almost like jihad has become a period of growth that this world has to go through, and we humans are just sacrifices in it. We are not the masters of this house (world), but a short period of time. The tenant must eventually hand over the key to the next tenant. No, if my theory is correct, even the so-called high-level gods are nothing more than relatively high-level sacrifices, or perhaps it should be said to be consumables. "

"...All our lives and species are part of this world and are serving this world. The river of Styx will not flow, and demons and demons will never end. As long as the pillar of heaven still exists for a day, all living beings will believe in it The gods long for a good place to belong after death, and the gods of order will also have endless sources of faith. But compared with the evil gods on the side of chaos, such power has too many restrictions, at least, they will be subject to The domination of the source of order."

When Roland read this, his first reaction was not "ah, that's right", but "it's unbelievable, this guy didn't disappear because he knew too much?" After asking others, he learned that The Grand Master had indeed disappeared hundreds of years ago, so he nodded, "That's right, that's exactly how it should be. This is the right ending."

In the country of mages back then, Archmage Thrace's ideas were also regarded as too extreme remarks, because the third book said it was "conjecture", and the full text was conjecture and conjecture without evidence support. Naturally, not many people believe it. Of course, it cannot spread. The most important thing is that no one can gain power and knowledge from such a theory that is all speculation.

But if it is of no use at all, this third book would have been left in the library long ago and no one would care about it. This traditional mage who has no interest in demonology and summoning has obtained a lot of by-products in his research. Amazing feats in demon summoning, plane travel, and more.

"...Then, the so-called demons and the blood sacrifices necessary for the devils to come to the world are also very easy to explain. Those bloody rituals often have many requirements, but the common point is that the more frightened the sacrifices are before they die, the more they die. The worse the better, according to my research on those rituals, the soul is not consumed, but it disappears. There is a saying among demons that "the soul is the only common currency in the lower planes", so the "currency" obtained in the blood sacrifice Where did it go. My personal tendency is to pay to the abyss or the world itself. As a 'toll' and 'accommodation fee' for the demons to exist in the mortal world. In this regard, I did a series of experiments. And got Some success has been achieved..."

The simple blood sacrifice kit, the unit of measurement of the soul, the way of communication with the residents of the lower plane, the new demon binding magic circle deduced from the new theory, and the double cross-plane summoning that took advantage of the rules of the plane. His research results made countless demigod demon warlocks and summoners feel ashamed. The classic subjects and research results of their own subjects were actually created by mages of other departments.

"What can best support my guess is that those lowest-level demons are weak, even weaker than ordinary beasts. They should definitely not be restricted by the rules of the plane, but summoning them also requires blood sacrifice, even if it is the caster himself. blood. This is completely contrary to the mainstream 'Element Tidal Limitation Theory'. According to that theory, they should not be subject to any restrictions. At the same time, the undead are also very unpopular, but the undead from the undead plane There is no need for blood sacrifice to be summoned. However, these residents of the lower planes are not so troublesome when they go to other planes. Perhaps the blood sacrifice itself is not important, and even he is just an application to enter the 'house', what is needed is the rules of the world Accepted. Then, I have another guess..."

If the research stops here then forget it. But those who have read the book here will continue to read, Duobai will be surprised and sigh, "Mr. Thrace's disappearance is really self-inflicted. This kind of cranky thinking is just for fun, and you dare to write it in the book."

What did he write? He wrote... The Truth of Jihad!

"So, during the middle and late stages of the jihad, even the devils don't have to pay 'tolls' to come to this world, that is to say, the owner in charge of this house has issued an invitation to the devils? Then, we should think about it as a 'house owner' 'Why did the gods of order and the source of order send out invitations? What motives do they have? Do they want to win the jihad? Or do they just want to see countless lives destroyed in the jihad? Reincarnation in reconstruction."

"...Then, maybe being the victor in a jihad may not be a good thing. After all, they will often become the first sacrifices in the next jihad. Otherwise, how can they afford so many soul coins. Perhaps, those who need these coins Not only the residents of the lower plane, but also those in heaven..."

Although there are many stupid people these days, there are also many smart people, especially those old antiques who have lived for a long time. Their long lifespan has given them endless knowledge. At least the old dragons who can maintain "neutrality" in the holy wars of the past dynasties definitely know What, but it’s fine if you know it. Thrace not only said it, but also wrote it. Obviously, he succeeded. It is worth mentioning that Thrace is the mentor of Margaret’s mentor. Even these reputations are not obvious. All of his books were obtained from Margaret.

And for me at this time, there is such a "pioneer of death"... Cough, a respectable senior, it is really gratifying, especially since he has left a lot of his research success in ** Among them, it saved me a lot of trouble, and even the idea of ​​getting the foundation of the plane as a summoning touch (sending a plane-level invitation) was deduced from his theory.

"...Well, the main plane summons demons and devils need blood sacrifices, while summoning demons in other planes does not need it, but most of them will fail. The main reason is that other planes lack oil and water, and the demons are afraid of traps that enslave them. As for Why don't you worry about the main plane being a trap? The soul and flesh of the main plane make these guys willing to take risks, and if they just enter with an avatar, it's even less of a threat..."

What is in front of me is a giant summoning circle with a radius of more than tens of kilometers. This is a revised version of Thrace's simple magic circle, and the white dragons soaring in the sky are helping to draw it.

It's a bargain to get the white dragon's approval. This kind of magic circle is esoteric to ordinary people, but it's nothing to dragons. If other dragons see it, I'm afraid they will know what we summoned. The target doesn't exist in the world of Ashe, and the inhabitants of the lower planes are the least popular kind at all times.

"It's fine to summon the devil. After all, they are in our plan, and the devil can be considered reasonable. What are you going to do to summon the devil?"

When the ancient white dragon Summer fell to the ground, he had already transformed into a snow elf.

Not far from the huge summoning circle, there is a slightly smaller magic circle. Although his plane coordinates are also lower planes, it is not the hell where the devil lives, but a certain layer of the endless abyss.

"Oh, this is a personal relationship to help."

"...This should be the direct territory of a demon lord above the earl, are you sure they will reason with you instead of burning the fire of disaster on your head?"

"...No need to try, she is trustworthy. She is the new Demon Marquis, even if I say her name, you probably won't know it. Besides, if I don't look for her...the fire of disaster will definitely burn on my head. "

"The new Demon Marquis? The one in the sea of ​​fire? She and you..."

"...Should, probably, possibly, be your girlfriend?"

"Why do you use interrogative sentences? Oh, I understand. Young people are so powerful. They dare to date a demon. You are afraid that she will accidentally eat you. By the way, how tall is she, three hundred meters or four hundred meters, If it is a fire element, it should be equipped with an abyss demon flame that burns everything, can she operate it freely at such a young age? If it goes out of fire, can your small body afford it?"

Summer's eyes that looked at the warrior first and then at the martyr made me feel a little unbearable, but after being reminded by him, my vest started to sweat, and I seemed to have missed something unconsciously .

If Eliza comes later, she will come in the real body of the Demon Marquis, not a temporary incarnation obtained from an incomplete blood sacrifice. Although a complete Demon Marquis can become a reliable combat force, but if she plans to first Clean me up, or accidentally step on me to death...

"Hey, you still have self-knowledge, no, it should be said that you have made progress, knowing that she will clean you up?"

"Dead cat, you still want to fall into the stone... How about we modify the magic circle, at least delay it, I'm not ready yet..."

But the black cat looked at the illuminated magic circle over there, and shook its head.

"It's too late, she is more anxious than you, she has already come. I don't know if you are ready, but she is probably ready." (To be continued...)
