150. Protective Measures [Second Update]
"Is this a mammalian or an insect?"
Sean looked at the white cocoon in front of him, and finally asked after a long time.
Cecilia shook her head as well, apparently she didn't understand the situation either, as she had always treated marshmallows as mammals, and his mother was in animal form, not an insect. But now, this kind of behavior similar to spinning silk into a cocoon is obviously a special action that belongs to insect creatures. It's just that the magicians and the scientists of the Earth Federation are similar to the principle of the right to investigate, so Cecilia did not give any reply.
She just walked forward, then reached out and gently tapped the white cocoon in front of her.
The sound coming from the cocoon-like object was somewhat metallic, and the tactile sensation made Cecilia feel the same way.
It's just that it's completely metallic, but it's not quite like it. Instead, under Cecilia's light pressure, there was a reaction similar to that of a soft shell, which made her feel very incomprehensible about the sparks that burst out from the sword that Sean had just tested. Because in a way, Sean's actions just now should confirm that the hardness of this cocoon is far greater than that of conventional weapons - in the latest test of the Black King, the impact shield processed by a special forging method can still be pierced lightly.
However, Cecilia just pressed and poked with her fingers, but she did not have the high hardness of this impression.
"Perhaps, this is not a cocoon." After a long time. Cecilia said in a non-very certain way, "It should be some kind of magic shell with the power of rules." β
"Magic shell?" Sean was a little stunned, although he understood a lot of things very well. But he obviously didn't know such a highly technical term, "What is a magic shell?" β
"It's easy to understand it as a magician's force field protection." Cecilia thought for a moment, and then opened her mouth to explain to Sean, this feeling of being a teacher still made her a little excited, "I can feel that almost all the magic flowing in the air is gathered into it, and this magic convergence also makes this shell produce the corresponding rule power." I can barely tell that this rule has something to do with the rebound. β¦β¦ So my guess is that the stronger the attack on this shell, the more powerful the rebound will be. If you had just slashed at this white shell, you would have been injured too. β
"Damn, this little guy is insidious enough." Sean looked at the eggshell-like thing and cursed. "So we'll just leave nothing at the moment, right?"
Cecilia saw Sean's somewhat angry look. And he began to have fun. However, after hearing Sean's question, she quickly replied: "Almost." My guess is that the marshmallow was transformed through the magic and the elemental power of the heterogeneous plane, but it's hard to say how long this process will take. Maybe a few days, months, or more, after all, marshmallow is a variety of Warcraft that we have never seen before, so ......"
"Ugh." Sean sighed helplessly, "I originally wanted to improve the strength of this idiot before we were about to leave for the Wild Lands, but I didn't expect it to turn out to be like this." β¦β¦ But forget it. Anyway, in a place like the Wild Land, a second- or third-level demonic beast can't play a big role. β
Hear Sean say that. Cecilia snickered again.
The feud between Sean and Marshmallow has long been no secret, and basically all of Sean's followers are well aware of it. However, this kind of discord is actually more just a dislike of each other, but if there is really any emergency, Sean and Marshmallow will still cooperate with each other, of course, only a handful of times. Cecilia speculated that this was probably the result of Sean's use of marshmallows in the pastβjust like Sean used to play with Gollum as a ball.
"Let's wait a few days, if this guy hasn't come out of the cocoon, we don't care." Sean thought for a moment, and then spoke, "Over there in the wilderness, Andre has already sent more accurate intelligence information, and there may be some big moves recently, so we can't waste any more time." β
Cecilia nodded in understanding and didn't say anything more. She knew what Sean was going to do in the wilderness, so she naturally knew the priorities of the matter, and Cecilia never held Sean back in this regard, but always maintained a highly enthusiastic and supportive attitude. Of course, she also understands why Sean is in a hurry to let Marshmallow improve his strength, because when he took Marshmallow away, Sean just wanted to cultivate Marshmallow as his own guardian beast, and now that Sean is facing the enemy, the strength is getting stronger and stronger, and Marshmallow's current situation is impossible to play any protective role.
Therefore, Sean was in a hurry.
"I'm fine." Cecilia gently took Sean's hand, and then showed a faint smile, "I've been able to take good care of myself, what I lack now is just a small stimulation." But even if I don't, I will soon be able to enter the Sanctuary, and the bloodline in my body is told me so, so ...... Don't worry about me. β
"Yes." Sean nodded, he clenched Cecilia's small hand, then stretched out his other hand and patted Cecilia's head gently, before turning his head to look at the thing that now didn't know whether to say it was an eggshell or a cocoon, "This thing, can you just leave it alone?" β¦β¦ Do you need someone to come and take care of it? β
"No, anything wrapped up in the power of rules is not so easy to deal with." Cecilia shook her head, "I've started to get into the line of rules now, and although it's not complete, I can still see some of it. The marshmallow cocoon, or eggshell, is now completely protected by the laws of the world anyway, as long as he doesn't come out, then he is safe, at least there is no external force to destroy it. β
"External forces?" Sean frowned, "Ordinary methods of force may not be able to destroy it, but the laws of the world are not absolute. In other words, there must be something that can be restrained, or destroyed, the shell of the marshmallow. β
"Yes, but it's not very common." Cecilia hesitated for a moment before speaking, "If it's really so dark-faced, then there's really nothing to say." Even if you let people protect you, you'll also encounter accidents, and it's hard to say about things like the fate line. β
Sean thought for a moment, then walked over to the cocoon and tried to reach for it. This time, because brute force was not used, Sean soon felt a completely different kind of touch. It's just that at first, he thought it would take a lot of effort to be able to hold it, but it turned out that he just used a little force to directly pick up this thing that couldn't tell whether it was a cocoon or a shell, and the feeling of starting it was very light, like a small package.
"What are you going to do?" Seeing Sean pick up the marshmallow shell, Cecilia asked.
"I'm going to take it to the temple." Sean opened his mouth and said, "There is more power on the side of the temple of the Church of Life, which may be able to accelerate the hatching of marshmallows. And in terms of protection, it will be safer. β¦β¦ As long as the enemy is not a brainless fool, he will definitely not forcibly break into the Church of Life, and once this behavior is discovered, he will not be able to get close to the Church of Life for the rest of his life after being marked. β
As a church to which the gods belong in the earthly world, it naturally does not mean that others can come and go at will. And if you break in at will, then it is easy to cause the clergy of the church to attack, even if you are defeated, you will put a divine seal mark on the opponent's body, and once you are marked by this divine seal, then unless the god to which the divine power belongs falls, it will never disappear.
Even if you die, your soul will not enter the River Styx, but will be taken away by the god who will be marked by the divine seal, and you will suffer for eternity.
Therefore, the act of trespassing into the church temple is not done by ordinary people. Because even a single pastor can do such a thing as a divine seal, unless the person who trespasses the church has the ability to kill all the enemies in front of him in an instant, then he will not be able to escape this punishment at all.
Of course, it is not impossible to forcibly erase the Divine Seal mark, but it is based on the coverage of divine power.
In other words, a god with a weak divine power can overwrite a weak divine power, and a higher divine power can overwrite a medium divine power. However, the divine seal mark belonging to the god who is also a god of high divine power is not so easy to cover and erase, and the goddess of life happens to be a god of high divine power. Coupled with the importance of the Church of Life in this world, Sean thought that even those crazy people who could be equal to the Peace Society would not do such a thing.
Seeing that Sean had already made a decision, Cecilia would certainly not stop it, after all, the safest place in the Void Duchy now is indeed the Church of Life.
Soon, someone in the Black Swan Castle prepared the carriage, and Sean sat in the carriage with such a one-meter-high eggshell, and there was no one else in the carriage except Cecilia and a coachman. This time, Sean didn't even carry the Black Swan Guard, anyway, in his opinion, he didn't need it, it was better to continue to stay in the Black Swan Castle to protect Vinia and Marton. (To be continued......)
