Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 756 The Divine Body Project (2-in-1)

As a learned scholar possessing the wisdom of a true dragon, and having studied daily in a private library for over 180 years, Roy believed he had a considerable understanding of "linguistics."

Various parts of speech, tenses, grammar, the evolution of language history...

I've already explored most of the less niche topics.

Even the pronunciation of ancient languages ​​can be easily recalled with a little research.

The meaning contained in that word is indeed the mother's call, and it is also a similar term that elders use to address infants.

"In other words, the situation at the time was..."

An invisible, intangible monster, which cannot be perceived by ordinary mental means, chased after them while crying out "Baby."

What exactly is going on?

Like evil gods, strange creatures are vessels of some kind of mysterious law or power.

The difference between the two lies in the fact that strange creatures are mostly related to natural laws, while evil gods are more inclined to the emotions and feelings of intelligent life.

However, this is not absolute; some strange phenomena may also touch upon certain patterns related to resentment or emotional intelligence.

Roy felt that this might also be related to the power of some kind of evil ritual or curse.

Initially, the curse wizards who wielded the power of curses likely drew inspiration and power from these beings.

The ghostly body I possess actually originated in this way.

The difference is that it is a strange creature that focuses on "body organs" rather than on "emotions" or "relationships".

The more Roy thought about it, the stranger it seemed.

……

This temporary confusion cannot be resolved in the short term.

Roy had no choice but to do something else first.

He summoned the red-skirted ghost, took out 20 magic stones, and first posted a quest to explore the Blood Seal Demon Bee's nest and check the harvest.

"Such a sum of money is enough to get low-level wizards to do things."

But that's not enough to warrant risking one's life.

Fortunately, all I asked them to do was make a trip with the token.

As long as you're quick-witted, you can avoid the dangers on the road...

After that, he contacted the college and other relevant parties.

On the planet Fran, the faith of the Golden Dragon people is still upheld.

This has already begun to provide some divine power to his dragon body.

Roy obtained a lot of information about the faith realm related to the temple from Egliss, and learned that he could use divinity to permeate his body and undergo "divine enhancement"!

"This is a change on a physical level, which is much easier than accepting it directly with the soul and spirit."

After all, sometimes, the power of faith can be too strong, and it can even cause a change in one's own will...

What he was thinking about here were some of the drawbacks of the power of faith.

Many great wizards and legendary mages do not take the path to godhood in order to avoid having their will altered.

However, in comparison, divine bodies and dragon bodies are much safer and more reliable.

Anyway, many wizards also arbitrarily modify various mechanical devices and magical bodies. Even when they were still apprentices, they dared to inject blood mercury into their bodies.

It's not surprising that people are now creating things that are supposed to be divinely powerful.

……

Shortly after, in the study.

Roy reviewed the "Kahham Sacrifice Manual" again, comparing it with the temple texts of Eglis, and compiled it.

During this period, they also used cross-dimensional communication to communicate with Kaham and discuss the technical details.

As a result, some useful things were extracted and refined from them.

The most direct example is a product called "Sanctification Potion".

By using the water of the Great Albert as a medium of divine power, combined with blue salt and the "Holy Light" spell, one can create true "holy water" in the common sense.

"There are many kinds of these products, and the specific refining methods are quite complicated, but only those products that involve the creation of divine power are the genuine original holy water."

This kind of thing, when refined to the extreme, can extract divinity and transform matter!
Theoretically speaking, it has good effects both internally and externally, and can even be used for bathing...

Similar to medicinal baths used in martial arts training, these baths can accelerate the process of sanctifying the body as a vessel.

Pushing it forward regardless of cost is tantamount to forging oneself into a semi-divine artifact!

After that, Roy noticed that different types of divine power had different effects.

However, if we carefully refine and identify the commonalities, and then perform basic sanctification and enhancement, it is still possible to achieve this.

……

a few days later.

In the backyard garden, in the circular heated swimming pool, Roy and his followers Prandelle, Nisa, and others bathed together, enjoying a leisurely vacation.

The power of magic caused water to pour from the bottle in the mermaid's hand, which was sitting on the reef, and flow continuously into the pool.

Windsorbell leaned against the statue, her slender fingers gently caressing the surface of the water, the holy water flowing between her fingertips, shimmering with tiny specks of light.

Under the influence of divine power, the pure holy light within her body resonated subtly with the holy water in the pool. The faith in the Goddess of Light from the world of Egris caused the water to ripple with faint golden light.

She further infused it with divine power, continuously assisting in its creation.

This is not an ordinary pool, but a sacred pool filled with holy water that emits a soft white light.

A hazy white light emanated outwards, enveloping the entire backyard garden in a sacred atmosphere.

Roy leaned comfortably against the poolside, with Atedia kneeling behind him, vigorously massaging him. On the other side, Beryl and Angaree were whispering to each other.

Just when everything was beautiful and peaceful.

A fish suddenly leaped from the bottom of the pool, arching its body and displaying its vitality.

"Here comes the fish!"

The gemfish Litos excitedly swam and leaped underwater and in the air, its beautiful scales shining even more brightly under the white light.

It had a happy expression on its forehead.

:.ヽ(*`).:

While swimming, it kept exclaiming, "This is so comfortable! I love taking a bath, my skin feels so good..."

"Gulu gulu..."

Domi the black cat emerged from the water and spat out a mouthful of holy water.

"Pooh!"

It doesn't like taking baths.

Seeing the black cat Domi pop out with a look of disgust, as if it was about to leave, Freya couldn't help but reach out and grab it by the neck.

"Domi, be a good boy/girl."

As she spoke, she began to scrub Domi's back.

Domi struggled and writhed, waving its paws wildly and meowing incessantly, which amused everyone.

"Master, what are the plans for the future?"

Amidst the commotion, the girl's head floated gently on the water's surface, asking Roy a question from the side.

"Repair Alice, accumulate divine power, and promote the application of more sacred artifacts and divine bodies..."

Roy summarized it.

His followers had already begun to qualify for godhood.

If I were to advance to the rank of Grand Wizard, only demigods and true gods could keep up with my pace.

The same applies to repairing Alice.

******
"besides……"

Luo Yi pondered for a moment.

"I want to forge several combat artifacts outside of the artifacts of different schools."

The divine face created in the world of Eglis is a perfect example.

However, that was merely a prototype. At that time, I had already attempted to transform it into the 'Mask of the Golden Goddess' for Serafina to utilize effectively. I myself also needed one of these to better unleash the power of the "Face of God" spell.

In addition, I must integrate all the resources and treasures I possess to forge artifacts that match my own strength and are suitable for dealing with future enemies!

In Egliss, he encountered a formidable opponent.

For many years, they have kept a low profile and remained in hiding because they were wary of the other party's strength.

They waited until they were fully prepared before seizing the opportunity to engage in the final battle.

If it were an ordinary wizard, how would they handle this situation?
The answer is self-evident.

That means continuing to lie low and infiltrate, then being relentlessly pressured by the Temple, enduring several years of hardship before finally going underground to continue the "Fire Seed Project".

But even mediocre wizards like that struggle to complete tasks, and the divine status and resources they gain afterward will become increasingly scarce.

Only if it's strong enough...

Defeat the Temple and plunder everything they possess...

Only then can a sufficient advantage be accumulated.

This time, it was precisely because he gained many believers and faith from it that he was able to be so extravagant as to use holy water to take a bath and continue to carry out various enhancements.

Accumulating such advantages for the next world or other travels will allow you to acquire even more resources.

Over time, this leads to a snowballing accumulation of knowledge and experience.

"...The ultimate goal is to further improve and reach the realm of a Grand Wizard!"

After a moment of contemplation, Roy stated what could be considered the most important goal next.

He silently added to himself.

"Then, we can also go to the Land of Chalk and explore it more deeply!"

……

After his bath, Roy left the pool satisfied and returned to the living room.

At this moment, in the oasis camp.

Three newly appointed wizards came to take over.

They went there as a team, and luckily, they succeeded on their first attempt.

"This is your reward, 18 magic stones..."

Manant readily paid the money on the spot.

"Lord Manant, were these things really left in the beehive by a high-ranking wizard for experimentation?"

After the handover was completed, one of the wizards couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"Sapion, you're really cunning."

"If the task is done, then it's done. Stop with the nonsense!"

To Roy, Manant was just a minor wizard, but to these low-ranking wizards, he was a big shot in charge of the camp.

Hearing this, he said unhappily.

But after all, they were his capable subordinates. Over the years, wizards came and went in and out of the camp, and people who were willing to make a living here gradually formed a small group.

They number around thirty to fifty people and are mobile "scavengers".

In fact, those within the Witch Tower prefer to call them "Cleaners".

In plain language, it's just "garbage collector"!

In many situations and for many things, Manant still relies on them.

Therefore, he patiently explained, "Keep your little schemes to yourself."

Now, almost 200 years have passed. Do you really think that you can just randomly search by luck and find some rare, or even extraordinary, treasures?

"That's true. Even if we do take it, can we keep it?"

So many eyes are watching...

During the conversation, the low-level wizard named Sapion chuckled sheepishly and obediently handed over what he had in his hand.

"Don't worry, that important person promised that if it happens to be something he needs, he wouldn't mind giving you some special rewards."

Who knows, maybe then you can exchange a blank card for a magical treasure, and a magical treasure for a rare treasure!

Manant offered some words of comfort.

"I wouldn't dare count on that."

The group understood the situation and spoke up repeatedly.

Those things are worth hundreds of thousands or even millions of magic stones. I can't even imagine it!
“Manant”

I heard you've acquired some new treasures?

"What's inside? Show it to me."

Just then, a mysterious wizard dressed in a black robe and wearing a hood walked in.

Manant's expression changed slightly when he saw the other person.

"Your Excellency Pseudo, this is a matter that a certain lord asked me to handle."

These are the items he specifically requested, I'm showing them to you...

I'm afraid it won't be very convenient!

The other party was a very mysterious wizard who called himself Pseddo.

Although his level is the same as mine, he is a level two wizard.

However, Manant felt that the other party was very young and might become an unimaginable figure in the future, so he usually gave way to him.

Unexpectedly, the other party went even further and started asking about the matter entrusted to them by that lord.

"Ok?"

The black-robed wizard raised his head, revealing a blurry face as if hidden in the clouds.

That seemed to be the effect of the robes he wore, the function of the hood, which altered his magical aura and spiritual characteristics.

Their faces are also blurred and hidden, creating an effect similar to "blurring magic".

Pseddo narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in the shadows beneath his hood.

He never expected that Manant, who was always so timid and submissive, would dare to talk back to him.

"Which lord are you referring to?"
Have any wizards of level two or above, other than you and me, been spotted in this oasis camp lately?

"I can't tell you that."

Manant shook his head.

"OK then."

Puseido responded.

Manant has always been timid and fearful, but now he is behaving unusually, which must mean he has powerful backers.

The forces in this oasis are complex and intertwined, so it's best not to make any rash moves for now.

But at that moment, one of the people who had handed over the task earlier, a wizard named Soant, suddenly said, "Lord Pseddo, if I am willing to give you what I found over there, could you offer me a good price?"

"Soant, what do you mean by this?"

Manant stared at the wizard with displeasure.

If gazes could be transformed into a "death stare," this guy who suddenly turned against us would have been dead eight hundred times over.

Puseido chuckled dryly, neither confirming nor denying, and said, "Then we'll have to see what good stuff it is."

Sapion and Kasik, who were his companions, looked surprised.

Unexpectedly, when the three of them went together, this guy had secretly hidden something good.

Moreover, this unexpected complication arose during the handover of tasks.

Soant chuckled and took something out of his spatial ring.

Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to it.

It was a uniquely shaped plucked string instrument called a lyre. The body of the instrument seemed to have been buried in the ground and was covered with the marks of time, but the strings were strangely intact.
