Chapter 259: Evil Symbols

In the so-called mini-universe models (mannequins) drawn by medieval alchemists, the outer circle represents the universe, and the inner is painted with a male portrait, the head, hands, and feet corresponding to the five corners of the pentagram, and the biogen-colonizer in the center of the circle. Therefore, the warlocks believed that the "small universe" of man was dominated by the pentagram.

If the pentagram is turned upside down (inverse pentagram), it is pointing the human spirit downward, that is, hell, which becomes an evil demon symbol, and the upside-down pentagram also represents Satan, which is a symbol of Satanism.

Master Patra's time is precious, and Brian doesn't bother much. After sending the master on the ship, the technical director returned to the joint scientific research center to continue to look at the "origin of evil".

When he came to the laboratory, Strunm jumped up excitedly and grabbed him by the shoulders: "There is a reaction, there is a reaction!" "This colleague, though weak by nature, has a rather domineering sense when doing experiments, and Brian's rattling shoulders fully prove it.

No way?

Brian is self-aware. The Dusk Empire broke through Orquila and turned thousands of craftsmen into people, so that the production process of "broken silver" was obtained, but the treasure bag alone against a few pieces of armament can crack and restore the "broken silver", and the scientific research level of both sides must not be generalized. Although a "Walkie-talkie" can be built with a little power prop wreckage, this little cleverness is not enough to break through the enemy's technological blockade. In terms of technology, the necromantic creatures are inferior to those powerful countries, how can they suddenly make progress on the "source of evil"? That's the rare material on Satan, the man who is against the god of light, and it is said that it also contains the law, and even this can be cracked, is there really a soul god who protects the Twilight Empire?

He immediately rushed to the vessel, and was also shocked by the strange "ink". The black liquid, viscous as thick as asphalt, kept shaking, shaking, shaking, as if an earthquake was happening in the "City of Waiting", but you could see that everything else in the laboratory was in good shape.

"What additives were used?" Brian walked briskly over to one of the researchers, grabbed the list of materials in the other's hand, and quickly skimmed through them. He read very quickly, having read it twice in three seconds, but he couldn't see anything in the list that could make the "source of sin" move.

As a top-level rare material, the "Origin of Sin" can be used for alchemy, medicine, forging, and enchantment, but if you really want to do something with this thing, you can't even think about it for life professionals below the hero level. Not to mention purification and extraction, the "source of evil" can't even be divided into packs, if you want to pour out a drop, it will flow out in violation of the rules of physics, otherwise a group of researchers will not be collectively dumbfounded at a big jar, but will make more than a dozen control samples and be dumbfounded. In addition, the most bizarre thing is that no matter what material is thrown into it, the "source of evil" will spit it out like a living thing, even the most cherished "despicable blood" of the necromantic creature is just a mouthful of spittle. The Lancang Dragon King was able to get the "Origin of Sin" in his hands and encapsulate it with his own blood talisman, which can be regarded as a clever means in this Qiankun plane.

Suddenly, a part of the "source of sin" rises up and becomes a symbol in the sky: the inverse pentagram. If there is any symbol on the continent that is the most orthodox symbol of evil, it is the inverted pentagram. That's all Brian knew, and he didn't have a clue as to why the "source of sin" formed this symbol.

"Materials are not living beings, they are not conscious, even rare materials." Strunm stepped forward and stared at the "Origin of Sin" side by side with Brian, his expression distorted because of the influence of the "Origin of Evil". "Maybe it's an earthquake happening."

"Tell me about it." Strom once used a bunch of "soul gems" to create the Soul Fire Demon, and he was more insightful in material science, so Brian paid attention to it.

"In the event of an earthquake, the liquid is shaken by the action of the shock waves. The origin of sin may be the same principle. In other words, something has emerged that can be echoed by the 'source of sin'. Strom's eyes were full of fanaticism, and he couldn't help but rush over and hug the container: "Of course, we can also follow the vine and study what makes the 'Origin of Evil' take the initiative to echo!" ”

Brian shook his head, obviously calmer: "This inverse pentagram symbol may also be a signal, the 'Origin of Sin' is like a sending device, attracting something closer. All in all, I will strengthen the vigilance of the joint research center, and you should remember to take precautions. ”

Strunm was stunned, he really didn't expect this layer. The more precious the treasure, the easier it is to be looked down against, and for the extremely strong, for the sake of the top treasure of the "Origin of Sin", even if it breaks into the Dusk Empire and kills it, it is not a big deal. The Lancang Dragon King can keep the "source of evil", but can the Bone Tyrant? What's more, the White Bone Tyrant and his elite have all left the country, and the national air defense is weak?

"Hahaha, what are you afraid of! If someone invades, I'm the first to let him go! At this time, Fermat jumped out and slapped his chest hard, and the fire of his soul burned vigorously.

"Shorty, don't look at your strength, you can't fight like me, what's the use?" Strom scoffed.

Fermat stood on tiptoe and tilted his head, holding on to the end: "I have a skill, and I can still fight the enemy to the death!" ”

"Hahaha!" Imitating the other party's laughter, Strunm was overjoyed: "I'm sorry, can you say it again?" 'You're still alive or dead', hahaha! ”

"Alright, the experiment continues." Brian immediately intervened. Necromantic creatures will continue to lose their will next to the "source of evil", and every minute and second of the experiment is precious, and the two of them can still quarrel.

At this moment of bickering, the inverse pentagram symbol suspended in the air became 666 again, another classic evil symbol. It swirled like a strange eye, coldly scanning everything in the room.

————————————————————————————————————

The next day.

Brian finished his morning reading, walked out of the library, and headed for the Joint Research Center, where he was stopped halfway through. It wasn't people or things that intercepted him, but a message: human merchants with large national debts gathered in Snow City to demand that the Dusk Empire pay him back. There was no way, he switched to an airship and flew straight to Snow City.

Snow City is a new commercial city on the mainland, with a good geographical environment, transportation and resources, and countless hot money flows in every day, even after the trade war. In addition to the prosperity of trade, there are also many merchants who come to the outskirts of Snow City to build factories, employing all low-level necromantic creatures, and spending half the salary of hired humans. In the eyes of foreigners, necromantic creatures are synonymous with cheap labor; And the Bone Tyrant is also very cooperative, preferring to let his people be cattle and horses to get more money. Anyway, it's not him who is hard. The two sides hit it off, so it attracted more businessmen to come and invest.

Why are most of the employees low-level necromancy? Because they don't understand the concept of money, they have almost no demand for wages, and they are too easy to fool.

The most precious thing in a person's life is experience. The experience of people and things is turned into good memories, and at the same time, it is also turned into the experience of life, and there is an unbreakable truth in memories and experiences: money is a good thing. Money can be exchanged for necessities to make one's life better, so the more money, the better, and this will not change even after death. Most of the necromantic creatures can only be confused, and obey the orders of mid-to-high-level necromantic creatures for free; However, a small number of necromantic creatures retain their pre-living experiences, their lifestyles and habits are also similar to those of their pre-living lives, they understand the beauty of money, and they are not willing to serve others for free. Even if they don't have the money, they can issue quests to adventurers and use the money as a reward in exchange for what they want.

It is precisely with the middle and high-level people as a foil, the low-level people can barely get the minimum wage, if the necromantic creatures are all brainless low-level goods, they will definitely not get even a silver coin, and completely become the slave of mankind - human cunning is famous among all intelligent races. In response to this, His Majesty put forward the idea of "necromantic lease contract": standardize the purchase and sale of labor, and since you want to sell yourself, you should sell it thoroughly, set a standard, and come up with a clear price. Although the necromantic creature is still destined to be a coolie, at least there is a contract to guarantee income and personal safety.

The merchants especially hated the "necromantic lease contract", not because they found it inconvenient to carry out, but because they could not accept the price of the necromantic creatures, such a vile and inferior evil race, to sit on the ground and raise the price, but if they did not sign it, the factory would immediately stop production, so they had to honestly go to the civic center to line up and pay the money.

Brian knew in his heart that although the merchants were resistant to the Twilight Empire, it had nothing to do with the current demand for official redemption of the national debt. The main force in the purchase of government bonds is Bigbowo and other countries, and businessmen are nothing more than pawns manipulated by them, and this matter must also be the meaning of the countries on the mainland. Unlike other investors, none of these big buyers want the Dusk Empire to prosper, but all hope that the Dusk Empire will be unlucky, such as losing a trade war, because then countries can take delivery of their bonds in advance, forcing the Dusk Empire to cash out in large quantities, and at the same time bring a momentum for the unknown wait-and-see to participate. The Twilight Empire, which lost the trade war, would definitely not be able to pay such a large sum of cash, so that the credit of the Bone Tyrant would have fallen into the dust, and who would dare to come to Snow City to do business?

No one had come to coerce the Imperial authorities before, because Schroeder Bray was responsible for it. But because of the matter of the "Necromantic Lease Contract", Schroeder was furious, and simply threw the mess to Brian again, and may even fan the flames behind his back, and reached a tacit agreement with the main envoys of various countries.

As soon as Brian arrived at the Snow City Political Center, he immediately made a "quiet" gesture to the humans present, and said, "I will be waiting for you in the council hall of the palace tonight to completely solve the national debt problem. ”

He said this to the instigator behind the businessman. He was prepared to make concessions in the name of His Majesty and sign unequal treaties with other countries.
