Steadfast Wizard: From Heart-Swapping Rat to Dimensional Demon God

Isaac ignored the stares of the crowd and, after taking his seat, distributed the intelligence he had gathered from the animal hide book along the way to everyone.

The book of animal hide contains the magic of the Black Orc God, and unlike Isaac, no one else can resist the temptation of magic.

Moreover, the information in the animal skin book is actually not much; it mainly consists of gifts from the Black Orc God—a series of restraining spells and the spells that caused this situation.

"This is..." Upon picking up the manuscript, everyone's brows furrowed instantly.

"The Black Orcs are actually connected to demons? And they can even use the power of demons to mass-produce high priests... Are they insane?" Barry said in shock as he looked at the manuscript.

Isaac shrugged, not finding it strange.

"The Black Orcs are not very civilized and they respect the law of the jungle. They are divided into countless tribes of all sizes. Even if they didn't have the orders of the Black Orc God, it wouldn't be surprising that they did this."

Demons, strictly speaking, fall under the category of deities. They possess a status equal to that of gods, but the strength of individual demons varies greatly; some are as strong as gods, while others are...

Similar to a semi-cadre.

However, due to their birth chart, they are born with many magical abilities, such as bestowing blessings.

They could accept sacrifices like outward gods and then bless the person presiding over the ceremony.

Of course, this comes at a price.

This is a deal.

The sacrificer will gain power, but after the agreement is made, the demon will take away their soul.

This treaty is even stricter than that of the Outer Gods. Deals with the Outer Gods are more like a one-off transaction. Whether it's a wizard or an Outer God, minor actions can only be taken during the ritual. Once the ritual is over, no one can interfere with the other.

At most, like the Lord of Billions of Flesh and Blood and the God of the Black Orcs, they would leave behind a magical artifact that allows them to communicate with each other.

But this isn't actually a good thing, because the devil's deal, unlike the Outer Gods' exchange of money for goods, is a loan.

Only after fulfilling the conditions agreed upon in the ritual will the demon take away their soul.

This gives wizards a lot of room to maneuver!

Within the wizarding school, there is a school called the Demon Dominator!

They are wizards skilled in the art of lending, gaining power by signing contracts with one demon after another, and then delaying the end of the contract by using bugs left in the contract after it is signed.

Some wizards can even use contracts to control demons and forcibly obtain more from them!

Like magic, like knowledge...

Isaac was also very interested in this, and he planned to look for related spells after he became a great wizard.

But that happened later...

Getting back to the main point, everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing Isaac's words. This did indeed seem like something the Black Orcs were capable of doing. It wasn't unheard of before, but it had never been on such a large scale, and usually, the Black Orcs would wipe them out on their own before they could even launch an attack.

But this time...

"The black orcs have become demonized..." Gaia frowned, looking at Cheryl, Isaac, and Barbara the Serpent Princess. They were the only three spellcasters present. "Do you have any solutions for this?"

Demonization is a spell, or divine spell, that almost all newly-minted high priests possess. By sacrificing a certain amount of life, a black orc can be demonized, giving him power comparable to a knight!

Fifteen thousand black orcs can produce five thousand demonized black orcs!

That is, five thousand knights!

This power is absolutely unstoppable by Fort Solomon!

Unless a high-ranking wizard is stationed there, and it can't be an ordinary high-ranking wizard, but a senior high-ranking wizard who has been stationed there for many years and has accumulated enough experience to handle the situation.

Five thousand knights...

Looking across the entire empire, only the Royal Knights can reach this level!

Throughout the entire empire, including nobles of all ranks, there is only this one knightly order!

However, it's not that difficult. If they poured all their wealth into it, they could raise such a knightly order in a short time. But this is an army, not a puppet. Once it's assembled, that's it.

Even alchemical puppets need constant maintenance, let alone humans?

Secondly, its main function is not particularly significant. Five thousand knights can actually be stopped by three high-ranking knights working together, repelled by five high-ranking knights, and annihilated by ten high-ranking knights!

In this extraordinary world, individual power is the ultimate answer!

Unfortunately, Solomon Fortress currently only has Gaia as a high-ranking knight. In the short term, the most resources they can produce is Caesar. Although Barry is also a peak-ranking knight, even if he obtains the smelting method and the corresponding resources, it will still take him some time to break through.

Cheryl is even more so; the path of an arcanist is very steady, there's no such thing as a sudden burst of power, one can only take it one step at a time.

Therefore, given the lack of high-end combat power, we can only hope that these few spellcasters can solve the problem through magic, such as reversing the demonization state of the black orcs...

"This isn't my area of ​​expertise, but I can look it up. The association has a lot of information on demonization, and I'm not quite sure what kind of magic they're using." Cheryl didn't give any guarantees, and she didn't even have much hope for herself.

After all, her major was not relevant to her studies; her main research area was material alchemy, and she had limited knowledge of biology.

However, she still looked at Isaac. If he knew the corresponding spell, he might be able to help. After all, she was a great wizard, and her foundation was there.

Isaac nodded, understanding his older sister's meaning, and said, "The animal hide book contains the corresponding spells and counter-spells. The specific effects still need to be tested. However, the animal hide book itself has a problem, so you can't look at it. I'll copy down the spells inside for you later."

After speaking, Isaac paused for a moment, then said, "We still have quite a few black orcs left, and I don't think we should waste them. We can use them to do some experiments. I'll do the demonization. I'm also a bit interested in demons, so this is a good way to learn about them beforehand."

Upon hearing this, Gaia frowned slightly, somewhat displeased with Isaac's idea of ​​contacting the demons. However, he also knew that Isaac wouldn't listen to him, and that contact with the demons was indeed unavoidable in order to resolve the current crisis at the fortress.

So he just frowned, said nothing, and had no right to say anything.

After Isaac finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to the Snake Princess, with Isaac and Cheryl showing the most anticipation.

Although they are all spellcasters, the one most likely to solve this problem is actually the Snake Princess!

Because she is a witch, and witches' powers are the most unreasonable!

Whether it's a legendary wizard or a wizard of truth, casting spells requires following certain rules, but witches don't!

Humans are born extraordinary!
