Chapter 474 The Legendary Mage of the Necromantic System: Promote Cowpox to Me, Now, Immediately!
Archmage Edgar took the paper and went to see His Excellency the Immortal.
Every necromancer, unless he was inexplicably tricked into entering the academy while he was in the academy, has a sad past behind him. Archmage Edgar will always remember that when he was less than ten years old, a great plague swept through the county, leaving nine houses empty.
His most gentle mother, and his most well-behaved and lovely sister, both fell into the plague and never woke up. The next year, his father married a new wife, and then he was sent to Nevis and never returned to his hometown.
Although the plague was not smallpox, even if one more plague could be contained...
Archmage Edgar decided to take the path of a teacher. Although he is not an accomplished disciple among His Excellency the Immortal, and is only a 12th-level mage, it is still not difficult to meet the teacher.
Moreover, this paper was written by a child that the teacher pays attention to...
"coming?"
His Excellency the Immortal was floating in the air, his black robe rolled up, and the paper in Edgar's hand floated over:
"This paper was written by Little Gretel? You think it's interesting?"
"Yes, teacher." Archmage Edgar stood with his hands down. He removed the binding on the paper with great experience. The black robe, which was ethereal but not real, seemed to be condensed with energy, shook again, and the paper spread out and hovered page by page, as if there was an invisible layer attached to it. whiteboard.
"emmmm..."
The skeleton's eyes had a faint red light, scanning them ten lines at a time. Halfway through scanning, I suddenly paused and slowly started reading from the beginning again. After reading two pages, he seemed to think of something, and the black robe was shocked again:
"Edgar, look at this. What our little friend has made is really noisy."
A roll of parchment fluttered over. When he was almost in front of him, he suddenly sank. Archmage Edgar hurriedly caught it, unfolded it, and pulled it down while looking at it, pulled it down, pulled it down...
This roll of parchment seems to be inexhaustible and can never be finished. Archmage Edgar had no intention of paying attention to this. All his energy was attracted by the information on the paper:
At the same time that Gretel's paper on infrared and ultraviolet rays was published, the Parliament made some moves and spread the paper to the territory controlled by the Glorious Holy See.
The Carolingian Kingdom, the Kingdom of the Rhine, a territory directly under the jurisdiction of the Holy See. Large and small churches, lords' mansions, the newspaper received that morning, once you open the second page of the inside page, you can see the headline printed in large characters——
After sunlight is divided into seven colors, two other kinds of light can be found!
The information coming from the other side of the strait said respectfully:
"After the newspaper was published, the Carolingian Kingdom and the seven cathedrals guarding the Hall Strait were ringing with bells and white light for three days;"
"In the Kingdom of the Rhine, Archbishop Coranna was said to have suddenly become seriously ill and did not come out to preside over the next day's ceremony. Archbishop Trier announced that he would go into seclusion;"
"The Glory Holy City urgently holds a purification ceremony, summoning all priests and above to pray day and night..."
Archmage Edgar smiled as he watched. Along the Hall Strait, seven cathedrals sit at seven nodes, echoing each other to form an unbreakable array. Without any external enemies, suddenly using the holy power stored in the church could only mean that they were in big trouble;
Based on the seven-color holy light of the Glorious God Religion, the Kingdom of Rhine promulgated the "Golden Edict", confirming the system of electing a king by the seven major lords. Among the seven lords, three were archbishops of the church. At this moment, two were eliminated;
As for the Glory Holy City, hey, the Purification Ceremony can certainly unite people's hearts and greatly increase the piety of the priests, but it is also a powerful medicine that consumes a lot of money!
During the purification ceremony, everyone from the pope to the lowest priests had to kneel down and pray without eating or drinking. For seven consecutive days, all physical consumption was supported by holy power——
After this wave is over, Glory Holy City will have at least a month or two without any hope of big troubles.
In order to give them a harsh blow, even if the parliament urgently withdraws a group of secret agents, the rest will enter a state of silence within a few years. All things considered, it will still be a profit.
"It seems that there are more than one or two people who have done experiments on itchy hands." Archmage Edgar raised his head from the information. Fortunately, the experiments in that paper are very simple and can basically be done with hands (except for the part about measuring wavelength). He sneered:
"I don't know if this paper is published, the Church of Radiance God will not continue to change the doctrine... The last time they redefined the elements, they changed a version..."
"It is said that it is already being changed." His Excellency the Immortal replied with a straight face - although his skull face was dull and meaningless, the two red lights in his eyes beat extra fast:
"Our spies within the church have received news. The latest version of the doctrine says that besides the seven-colored sunlight, the invisible light means unfathomable power that belongs exclusively to the Lord of Glory. The seven-colored sunlight belongs to the human world and cannot be seen. One of the rays of light belongs to heaven, and the other belongs to the underworld.”
Archmage Edgar really wanted to say, thank you for their hard work. Following the council's research, reading papers, and doing repeated experiments every day, this workload is greater than that of most magicians in the council!
When it comes to research that is particularly important and will shake the foundation of the doctrine, we have to rack our brains to change the new version of the doctrine to look like that.
Gee, this is too difficult. It's not like we can directly change the textbooks. The worst we can do is admit that the previous findings were wrong, and now we have new results...
The sacred teachings that represent the will of God are revised one edition today, one edition tomorrow, and three editions in a row within ten years. Does anyone still believe you? Moreover, it was modified based on the magician’s research...
"By the way, if you have time, go to Little Grete's place more often." His Excellency the Immortal suddenly ordered:
"After this paper is published in "Arcane", the guy from the Guanghui Sect will definitely want to kill Little Gretel. He doesn't like to stay in the mage tower, and there are no strong players in the research institute... You Go take a look, and if you encounter something, you can always delay it for a while.”
Archmage Edgar burst into tears. It turns out that my value is just to delay some time? Teacher, I am a high-level mage after all! Don't you expect me to fight back and kill the invading enemy?
Despite all the slander, he still respectfully agreed. After watching the Immortal Master finish reading the paper, he carefully asked:
"Teacher, Master Nordmark's paper...Look, if he applies to the review committee and hopes to be fully rolled out, should we support it?"
"Support?" The skull flew away with a "swish" and landed directly in front of him, with two red lights and his big eyes staring at him:
"No, we don't support it. We must advocate it first! - Edgar, you have to know that a weapon that can be fired and retracted is the weapon in our own hands!"
He suddenly drifted back again. With a sharp turn, the black robe swirled up high, and the edges dispersed into black mist, occupying most of the study room:
"Vaccinate everyone with cowpox! Let everyone in the kingdom not have to be afraid of smallpox! As long as there is a plague that can be resisted by humans, their 'plague angel' prophecy of destruction will be self-defeating! What kind of plague is it? The punishment of gods on humans, hum!”
As for eliminating the impact of smallpox, will it have any harm to the undead faction...
Does the Necromancy School still lack plague?
There are seventeen or eighty kinds of naturally occurring, non-magical plagues, and seventy or eighty kinds of non-naturally occurring, magically cultivated plagues. What infects humans, what infects animals, what infects both humans and animals...
It is a pity that the cost, spreadability, lethality, and comprehensive evaluation of plagues cultivated by magic are still inferior to those that occur naturally. For example, the Black Death, such as cholera, this kind of mass murderer with ten rooms and nine empty rooms, the cost of imitations made by Black Crow Swamp has never been reduced.
Otherwise, the Immortal would have led a group of necromancers to the Holy See to avenge his teacher!
That is to say, there is some hope in the near future. After Little Grete made the "plague seeds", there were at least five or six high-level mages, with their disciples and disciples, using magic to toss these seeds. From this point of view, Gretel Nordmark is really a born necromancer...
Your Excellency the Immortal is both excited and regretful. Even though his body had turned into a skeleton, he still couldn't help but sigh:
"Edgar, tell me, why does this kid refuse to enter the Black Crow Swamp? If he is willing to come in, I will ensure that he becomes a legend within fifty years. The title [Lord of Plague] is prepared for him! "
Archmage Edgar bowed his head silently. On the issue of plague, the Church of the Lord of Radiance and Black Crow Swamp have been at loggerheads for more than seven or eight hundred years——
Black Crow Swamp stated that the plague is the weapon of the Necromancer; the Church of the Lord of Radiance stated that the plague is God’s power to punish mankind, and Black Crow Swamp has stolen God’s authority...
Well, by the way, on this issue, all magicians share the same hatred. According to the Church of the Lord of Radiance, every magician has stolen the power of God.
For example, the Evocation faction, the power of thunder and lightning, has always been the iconic divine punishment. Therefore, the Lord of Thunder is also a thorn in the side of the Glorious Holy See, ranking second on the purification list, only after the President of the Council...
The Immortal swooped around the study. I don’t know what I thought of, but the speed is getting faster and faster, and the black robe has become a shadow——
In other words, he has become a semi-lich, and only a skull and a small segment of spine are left in his body to be able to fly like this. After running around for a while, he suddenly faced Master Edgar again:
"You! Go to Grom! Let the judges work quickly! Promote this, what is it called, cowpox! As soon as possible!"
"this……"
"What?"
"Should we inform the Lord of Thunder? After all, we are his disciples..."
The skull braked instantly. After standing still for a while, the black robe shook, rolled up each spread paper, and fluttered out. After a while, it floated back again:
"What are you doing standing still? Why don't you hurry up and catch up!"
