Chapter 105: Void Village
The Wand Mage is a special branch of the Necromancer.
On the path of necromancers, there are many people who have lost their original 'nature' in order to pursue the truth, and after death, they have voluntarily become necromantic creatures, that is, lichs, and only a few strong-willed people can maintain themselves and never abuse their power, and most of them will become necromancers. Liches are in the company of the underdogs, but the Necromancer can occupy a place at the top of the Mage's Guild and speak on behalf of the Necromancer, which shows that the Necromancer is the legitimate. []
Some necromancers are very different from the above two, preferring to sacrifice power for the sake of power, you know, for mages, "truth" and "power" are sometimes easy to 'mix' and cruel to themselves. They look for the remains of powerful necromantic creatures, because the remains that can be left behind after dissipation are the parts that gather the 'essence' of magical power, such as "holy bones", which are priceless; Then, they will merge the wreckage with their bodies, simultaneously increasing their mana and muscle strength, in exchange for a combat mode that transcends the boundaries between mages and warriors, known as "Demon and Martial Arts". Ordinary wands are no longer suitable for their use, only the heavy wand is their favorite.
Here I have to introduce the so-called "ghost staff". Officially known as the "Cursed Wand", it is made of a single smoky elderberry twig plated with a layer of mythril, a layer of obsidian powder, and a layer of amethyst sand. It is often engraved with a powerful sealing magic array, and the user will seal the soul into it and enhance the power of the spell, so the body of the staff is black and blue, and it often makes a crying sound. The identity of the creator of the wand is no longer known, but he is undoubtedly great, as the wand has long since spread around the world and has become a universal piece of equipment for wand mages. It contains a soul, itself is a low-grade soul equipment, which can greatly increase the user's soul power 'essence' divine power, reduce the chance of magic backlash when casting spells, and come with a powerful curse when physical attacks, and as long as you 'insert' it into the ground, you can create a small necromantic paradise, which can make the ghost wand mage jump the challenge. However, if someone who is not a wand mage holds the wand, that person will be drained of all life force, and the soul entanglement staff will not be freed, becoming its new victim.
Known for their prowess and prowess, they are impregnated with death, their 'sexual' personality is cold and cruel, and they are the enforcers of the Dark Church. A single rod is needed to execute a sinner, and a single rod is enough to maim him. They can compete with the Knights of the Holy See's Inquisition. Although they are rarely used, their prestige is far and wide.
————————————————————————————————————
"Ghost Staff, Soul, Darkness, Necromancy...... There are also some guys who can't be on the stage. The Dark Church, I've heard of this organization, and one of my teammates used to be a visiting professor there. Dark elemental life is a textbook in the realm of dark magic. Qingyi listened to Perles's introduction and clapped his hands: "Okay, it seems that this person named Rasputin is very suspicious." ”
Pers sat opposite Qingyi and lowered his head slightly: "There are many people on the other side, but our manpower is becoming more and more insufficient, so I haven't pursued it." ”
Qingyi smiled tolerantly: "I don't blame you for the good things that the righteous dance music has done." In addition, even the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, they know Astante as well as they do back home, and we really can't break with them, otherwise we may be caught by the Knights of Iron Hoof the next day. ”
Hearing this, Perls's unnatural expression finally eased. He asked, "Why are you so open-minded?" The Underworld is a fragment of your soul, and it has quasi-heroic strength, and once sacrificed, it is a great loss. ”
"Of course, I don't want an accident in the underworld, but he's also a self-aware doppelganger, and when he dies, it's his own inadequacy. Besides, I can't put you in danger for the sake of one person in the underworld. Doesn't it say that 'all men are created equal'? The Underworld doesn't deserve any special treatment. ”
"You have misinterpreted the doctrine+ wrong. You clearly want to protect the people you know, not everyone. At least you won't protect the enemy. Perls pointed this out directly.
Qingyi was not angry: "Yes, I still have 'selfish' intentions." Although he is currently trying to respect life, he can't help but have murderous intent in his heart, and wants to strangle all the scourge in his infancy. ”
"Are you trying to kill the people of the Dark Church?"
"No, I wanted to kill someone else, a beast who killed my father and plotted against him...... Let's get back to the point. How, when it comes to spreading doctrine, do you find the answer? ”
………………………………………………
"My name is Pers, and I'm willing to be your subordinate, even if it comes at the cost of being a necromantic creature." He looked up at Qingyi and said word by word: "Please tell me the path I should take." ”
"That kind of thing, where would I know." Qingyi smiled and pressed the bone dragon scepter on Perls's shoulder, a scene similar to the knight's canonization ceremony: the king rested his sword, a symbol of burden and glory, on the knight's shoulder.
………………………………………………
"Not yet. Even the saint who guided me before...... The bishop, who also had his own narrow 'nature', believed that the necromantic creature was the only one who could not be saved. If intelligent beings still retain their 'selfishness', then there can be no equality in this world. Perls sighed, and the six 'attendants' behind him also sighed expressionlessly.
"It's okay, even God can't do this. The soul god wants to reconcile the contradiction between the living and the dead, so he wants to use the ambiguous concept of the 'half-dead' to make the gray 'color' zone, and only those who believe in the soul god can maintain the half-dead form, which itself is also very narrow - 'those who believe in me are saved', so those who don't believe in me will die? Qingyi shrugged: "I think that a god like the god of death who doesn't need faith can give equality to all beings, and after everyone dies, he will hang up and implement the equal 'spirit' spirit to the home." ”
"But aren't half-undead creatures the most perfect of lifeforms? It has both a feeling and a long and squandering life. It stands to reason that everyone is willing to believe in the soul god and obtain the body of this immortal. As long as all people have a long life, the social form and national consciousness will definitely change, then there will be no more privileged classes, no more gap between the rich and the poor, and no one will have to be sacrificed. Perls insisted.
Qingyi pointed to the bronze canon on the table: "I remember that there is a sentence in it: 'Because people can think and speak, there is no equality.'" Your equality is not the equality of others; The equality of others is not the equality of yours.'" Maybe you think it's nice for everyone to be a half-dead creature, but have you ever wondered if it's good for them? Is it fair to forcibly change their race? ”
Perls was silent for a while, then whispered, "Yes, it's not fair. ”
"I can kill all enemies and turn them into necromantic creatures. They still have memories of their lives and know who killed them. The reason why they don't hold a grudge against me is because: I am the Necromantic King! I deprived them of their feelings and the ability to think, and I 'kneaded' + kneaded them like dough and molded them into the seed people I wanted. It's not fair, but I can brainwash them and make them feel fair. They will be grateful to me, they will bow down to me, and they will want to hang my portrait in their homes. Is that fair? No! There will still be outsiders who calmly observe everything and laugh at my tyranny + government. Until the bystanders become people, the world is unequal. ”
Qingyi pointed to himself: "Whether it is me or the soul god, it is a privileged class that can make rules. Only if we are on top can we create a false, ethereal world of equality. Once we are lost, there will be all kinds of disputes in the world, and the so-called equality can no longer be maintained. To put it bluntly, we are farmers, and our daily job is to give feed to the animals and give them equality in bondage. You think you are doing a good deed of equality, but you are just a shepherd dog herding the world for the farmer, and your thoughts are instilled by the master, not your own. So, if you want to pursue true equality, then you can't believe in God and you can't be loyal to anyone. Equality must start with oneself before it can be extended to others. ”
Pers's face changed, and he looked at Qingyi for a long time with a suspicious look, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, "That's right! You're quite right! Although every word sounds blasphemous, it is the truth! This suspicion of 'spirit' God is the pillar that brings down the privileged class! Thank you, Miko-sama, for solving a problem that I couldn't figure out. People will never be equal, and there may be a day in the future, but that may not be a good thing for all life. ”
"What are you calling me Miko-sama for? This identity is inherently a privileged class. Qingyi said with a smile.
"Because your soul is worthy of respect, you will always be my Son of God until I find the ultimate truth." Pers hurriedly got up and saluted Qingyi, unable to hide his 'agitation'. The six 'attendants' behind him also saluted in unison with expressionless faces.
Qingyi raised his hand and motioned for Pels to sit down: "So, do you still pursue equality for everyone?" ”
"Yes, I want to try it first. If the world is wrong, then I will build a new kingdom. There may be hierarchies, but no matter what the class, their rights and responsibilities are equal, and there is no privileged class. Some people are in charge of joining the army, some are in charge of farming, and some are in charge of business...... Everyone has to work, and more work gets more. ”
"More work and more is also equality?" Qingyi seemed to be smiling.
"If you play the role of a parasite in the collective, hoping only to get something for nothing, then such people are more hateful than the privileged class. Of course, this is unfair to him, but if he is tolerated, it will be unfair to the whole society. Word for word, Perls said quite deliberately: "Fairness must be based on universal standards, and anyone who wants equality must bring himself closer to universal standards, not let universal standards approach him." ”
"It sounds like a system society, isn't this what my Twilight Empire is, 'the strong are respected', no matter how you listen to it, it's getting farther and farther away from 'everyone is equal'. I always feel that you are trying to use the policy of fooling the people to achieve equality, and to confine the people to the system. Speaking of which, otherworldly creatures may be even more 'colorful' than we are. Admittedly, it sounds very good, and it seems that there is a clear division of labor, but sooner or later this universal value will be distorted. Qingyi shook his scepter and showed the huge "Death Star Crystal": "The nobles gradually became greedy for life and feared death, and did not fulfill their obligations to join the army, but forced civilians to perform military service and military training; Civil servants do not do their best to serve the people, but abuse their power for personal gain, corruption and fraud. The rules you make will always be found and distorted, even if your intentions are good. In addition, after the birth of the privileged class, the people at the bottom became increasingly dissatisfied, and even rebelled, and wanted to overthrow the superstructure, as well illustrated by the internal 'strife' of Sarah Munro V. The system collapsed and society changed again...... Over and over again, I don't know how long it will take for 'everyone to be equal'. ”
Perls immediately picked up the conversation and said firmly, "But you are different, you are in charge of the Necromantic Empire. You are an immortal being, you are with time! As long as you exist, you will have absolute control over the country, keep the system running, and fix the holes at all times. Human dynasties in history will last for hundreds of years at most, but the Twilight Empire will remain in the world forever, for a thousand years, two thousand years, or even tens of thousands of years, and in such a long time, you can definitely build a country where everyone is equal! ”
Qingyi was stunned and smiled: "Are you serious? None of the Necronomicon Empires in history have escaped the fate of destruction, can I be an exception? ”
"You were born an exception." Instead of laughing, Perls was 'very' serious.
"Haha, I'm just a cracker, don't raise my grade. Alright, let's go meet our allies, they're in a hurry. ”
