This wizard is just unscientific

Chapter 260 [Positive Rules] [Negative Rules] (5K)

When the forbidden guard squad stationed here opened the gate.

"Tucker!"

Bishop Martha Clark's peaceful voice came through.

"Your Excellency, what are your orders?"

Tucker looked over and asked.

"When you go in this time, do not touch any forbidden or sealed items."

"Forbidden seals of the death level can easily bring us mortal disaster."

"Once you get there, check the information on the taboo signs and choose your own taboo seal."

"Afterwards, professional personnel will reseal and reload it, and I will personally deliver it to you then."

"Do not attempt to break the seal yourself."

"That will only make you pay a heavy price."

"Understood!" Tucker nodded solemnly.

This time, Tucker said he came to make a selection.

However, Tucker himself is unable to touch those [Death-level] sealed artifacts.

If it weren't for the curse that Tucker suffered from the [Death-level] forbidden seal, he wouldn't have had to solve this huge problem himself.

The Church of the Three-Eyed God would not easily allow Tucker to obtain such a powerful, death-level forbidden seal artifact.

While Tucker and Bishop Martha Clark were exchanging these details...

"Clang!"

The mechanical magic seal on the alchemy gate has been broken.

"Your Excellency, when you wish to leave, simply knock heavily on the sealed iron gate."

"The sound of knocking on this alchemical door, which has sealing properties, is still quite clear."

The middle-aged wizard captain of the Forbidden Seal Guardian Team looked at Tucker and said.

"clear!"

Tucker nodded.

As the mechanical magic seal alchemical gate was slowly opened.

Whether it was whispers, murmurs, or strange roars, a wave of various sounds swept in.

Tucker was slightly startled, but upon closer inspection, he found nothing.

Taking a deep breath, Tucker walked into the forbidden sealed area.

Tucker had just gone inside.

The squad outside seemed afraid that something might escape.

They slammed the door shut with a loud clang as fast as they could, followed by the rapid sounds of mechanical gears and chains engaging and pulling.

This scene made Tucker's eye twitch.

Entering the forbidden sealed area is inherently dangerous.

In addition, Tucker will need to stay here for a while.

Naturally, only Tucker could enter.

And this is exactly the scene that Tucker was most happy to see.

Tucker didn't want someone forcefully watching him as he rapidly developed within the forbidden ecological zone.

Tucker did not rashly unleash his precise vision, phases, world, and other aspects.

One of the prohibitions Bevis Twain just gave Tucker was not to use any kind of supernatural vision for investigation.

Seeing things you shouldn't see could lead to serious consequences.

The forbidden, sealed place that comes into view resembles a huge, centrally located palace.

Looking up, the spiral staircase extends all the way to the highest point.

Forbidden seals of the [Micro-Spirit Level] rarely possess any activity, and even if they do, their harmful capabilities are not particularly significant.

For example, with Tucker's Destiny Revolver, the most you'd lose is a little more life.

It doesn't have that immediate, direct effect of death.

[Dangerous Level] Forbidden Sealed Items, there are quite a few seals here.

According to information Tucker obtained from Bevis Twain, at least a hundred forbidden artifacts of the "dangerous" level are sealed here.

The vast majority are forbidden seals that are more harmful than effective.

after all.

Forbidden seals that are less harmful but more effective have already been used by others.

[Death-level] Forbidden Sealed Artifacts are not numerous, even in a large place like Saint Land.

There are probably a dozen or so, less than twenty.

In addition, Tucker heard from Bevis that...

There are also two powerful sealed artifacts here, classified as "terrifying".

It is said to be sealed deep within the sealed land.

Moreover, it uses a deadly seal, which is welded shut once locked and can never be opened.

[Terror Level] Forbidden Sealed Items are walking death-sowing machines.

Even master-level experts wouldn't dare say they could handle it.

The best approach is to lock it completely to prevent it from escaping.

Tucker did not rashly go upstairs to search for the [Death-level] sealed artifact.

When Tucker had previously discussed this matter with Bevis Twain, he had already roughly drafted the forbidden seals he wanted to choose.

This time, the main target is still the forbidden ecology here.

Tucker closed his eyes.

He used his most fundamental, extraordinary ability—hearing!

To capture what happens within the forbidden ecosystem.

"Waaaaah..."

A subtle whirlwind sounded from a distant corner.

Tucker opened his eyes and looked around.

With a flick of his wrist, he took out an ordinary lantern, placed a solidified Nightmare Fireball inside, and an invisible runic hand lifted the lantern, its light rapidly dispelling the surrounding darkness.

Following the rules and regulations of the forbidden sealed land, Tucker began his journey toward the location where the ecological vortex existed.

Ecological whirlwinds are often places where forbidden ecological characteristics are most intense.

Tucker himself has never developed in a forbidden ecosystem.

and so!

Even a small ecological whirlwind will provide Tucker with the [Rapid Growth] boost.

A dozen minutes later.

At the end of a dead end in a passageway.

Tucker not only heard the faint whistling sound of the wind, but he also saw the vortex of forbidden wind lines intertwined.

Even the light was somewhat distorted by those forbidden whirlwinds.

Among the restrictions that Tucker obtained.

There are regulations requiring the avoidance of taboo ecological cyclones.

Tucker came for this reason, so naturally he couldn't avoid it.

After looking around and confirming that the forbidden sealed object was relatively far away,

Tucker took a deep breath, took a step, and stepped directly into the small vortex where forbidden power converged.

As soon as Tucker entered the forbidden vortex, a sudden change occurred.

The forbidden whirlwind appeared very calm and small in scale when observed from the outside.

When Tucker entered, he discovered that the place was filled with raging winds and waves.

Tucker felt as if his physical body was about to be torn to shreds by this forbidden power.

That forbidden ecological power that blows into the steam-wizard sequence ecosystem along the body, soul, and transcendent state.

The currents are converging in Tucker's ecosystem, forming an increasingly ferocious hurricane that is about to wreak havoc.

Tucker is not powerless to resist this force.

Instead, Tucker needs to accept these powers.

Rapid development involves comparing Tucker's own base traits with the concentration of external traits.

as predicted.

Tucker held on for a few seconds.

The system's heavenly voice suddenly rang out.

"Ding! Abundant forbidden rule characteristics detected in the current environment; about to enter [Rapid Development] state!"

The system's voice sounded.

Within the Tucker ecosystem, the forbidden surging power that had already gathered was instantly suppressed and then completely vanished.

The forbidden vortexes that had been trying to twist and tear Tucker apart also calmed down.

It begins to be rapidly absorbed by the system.

[Rapid development] has begun.

"call……"

Feeling the forbidden whirlwind no longer threatening him, Tucker breathed a sigh of relief.

Open the development log, and the developmental progress begins to emerge, line by line.

"Ding! Acquired 0.08 Forbidden Rule Fragments."

"Ding! Acquired 0.08 Forbidden Rule Fragments."

"Ding! Acquired 0.08 Forbidden Rule Fragments."

"bite……"

…………

Experiencing the effects of development, Tucker quickly summarized the benefits of forbidden development.

"First of all, as a higher-end resource, the acquisition rate of Forbidden Rule Fragments is very low."

"Of course, it's also possible..."

Tucker glanced at the small forbidden whirlwind around him.

"It's related to the ecosystem of this little cyclone around me."

"Secondly, the acquisition efficiency is also relatively slow."

"It takes about 10 seconds to get a fragment."

"If you can only earn 0.08 at a time, you can earn 0.48 per minute, and 28.8 per hour."

"Given the size of this cyclone, it might not even last ten minutes, let alone an hour!"

"Fortunately..."

Tucker looked out of the passageway.

"When I was listening just now, there was more than one sound of whirlwinds."

"If we accumulate more cyclones, we can still get some."

"After all, this is a rare high-level resource, [Forbidden Rule Fragment], so it's understandable that the quantity is small."

Tucker waited quietly for the system to "develop rapidly".

"Waaaaah..."

The sound of a strong whirlwind outside suddenly surged up.

"Huh? What's going on?"

Tucker's eyes narrowed slightly as he peered out of the passageway.

But then, a massive amount of forbidden wind and waves, like a tidal wave, roared toward them.

The whirlwind, which had been shrinking due to being absorbed by the system, instantly became enormous after being replenished.

Immediately afterwards, the entire passage, and even the area outside the passage, was filled with the ecological waves of the forbidden whirlwind.

"This is... taboo ecology, demonstrating a certain level of ecological awareness!"

Tucker couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

"The taboo ecology sensed that I was resisting its ecological power."

"It is even 'eliminating' its ecological power."

"So this powerful, forbidden ecosystem is going to gather its own strength to contain or even destroy me?"

"The forbidden substances themselves have life activities, and their ecology has its own ecological awareness, which is not surprising."

"that is……"

Tucker's eyes narrowed slightly, and he chuckled softly.

"This kind of resistance will only accelerate my development; it poses no threat to me whatsoever."

"It came to me on its own, which saved me the trouble of searching everywhere."

After examining the situation for a moment and confirming that there were no problems with sitting here and waiting for development,

Sitting in the corner, Tucker began his research on the [Forbidden Rule Fragment].

Based on the system's description of the characteristics of [Taboo Rule Fragments].

Items with fewer than 30 fragments are considered safe and harmless forbidden seals.

Between 30 and 100 fragments, it belongs to the [Micro Spirit Level] forbidden sealed item.

[Danger Level]: 100-300 fragments.

[Death Level]: 300-1000 fragments.

[Terror Level]: 1000-3000 fragments.

[Destruction-level]: 3000-10000 fragments.

[Disaster Level]: 10000 fragments or more.

Based on the principle of reciprocity.

Forbidden sealed items have both positive and negative rules, two sides of the same coin.

For a sealed artifact, the difference between the positive and negative rules is negligible.

[Positive Rules] Externally, users use them to deal with others.

[Negative Rules] Internally, based on the length of time, frequency, and depth of application of positive rules, feedback will be provided to the user in all aspects.

The [Forbidden Rule Fragments] are resources that come from system development.

It can both strengthen the positive rules and weaken the negative rules.

Tucker's [Fate Fang] at this moment

Positive Rule: 56

Negative rule: 39

Overall, the results were quite good.

However, it possesses [forbidden rule fragments] produced by the system.

Tucker could easily raise his positive rule to the "Dangerous" level (over 100 points) or even the "Death" level (over 300 points).

Tucker can reduce its negative traits to below 30 points, making them harmless.

The negative rules are an indispensable balancing force for forbidden seals. They are an integral part of forbidden seals. Reducing them completely to 0 points will cause forbidden seals to go out of control, rampage, and even destroy their forbidden rule framework.

Maintaining certain "negative rules" helps the rules and characteristics of forbidden seals to be better utilized.

Basically, once the damage is reduced to below 30 points, normal people can withstand the negative effects, let alone superhumans.

After experiencing it carefully.

Tucker glanced at his rapid growth.

[Forbidden Rule Fragment]: 2.6 units.

"This forbidden rule fragment, as a high-level resource, is naturally incredibly powerful, needless to say."

"But it is also quite difficult to obtain, which is consistent with the characteristics of high-level resources."

"After all, not every place can have a forbidden ecosystem."

"At least……"

Tucker surveyed the vast forbidden and sealed land constructed by Saint Land.

"Once the next wave of new anchorage locations is available, we must thoroughly raid this forbidden sealed land. Its ecosystem is far more robust than that of the Forbidden Curtain Stage."

That's what I was thinking.

As Tucker regained his composure, he looked at the [Forbidden Curtain Stage] that had already been cast on him, but which had been postponed by the gods.

Positive Rule: 616

Negative rule: 181.

As a forbidden sealed artifact of the death level, its "positive rule" against Tucker reached 616, which is ridiculously strong.

However, its effect on the user, namely the negative traits of the Dark Sun Grand Archbishop, is quite minimal.

The negative impact of these 181 hazard levels, which are between 100 and 300, is not considered high in terms of the "danger level".

"That 'Forbidden Star Screen Society' is something else! They've actually managed to cultivate such a good thing."

Tucker thought to himself.

Tucker opened the details of the [Forbidden Rules Fragment] page.

The various ways to use the [Forbidden Rule Fragments] also emerged one by one.

This is the "forbidden stage" that Tucker is about to enter.

Tucker can directly throw in fragments to weaken the forbidden rule characteristics of Tucker, which is the value "616".

Tucker estimated that if he weakened it to below 300 points, allowing it to cross the 300-point threshold between "dangerous" and "death" levels, it would be easier to deal with.

This method is a one-time solution, but it consumes a lot of resources.

More than 300 "forbidden rule fragments".

That's enough for Tucker to forge his Destiny Revolver into a powerful [Death-level] forbidden seal artifact.

A revolver with a "Death Level" fate of 300 points or more is still quite formidable.

The second method is to invest fragments to directly weaken the forbidden enemy that Tucker is about to face.

The first enemy that Tucker will be facing is the level 48 [Death Scythe Lord].

A skeleton undead lord with a huge bone scythe.

It seems that Tucker is still able to handle it.

But this is only the first wave of casting for the stage.

The second wave will likely consist of legendary lords who are around level 50 or even 60.

The third wave consists of [Master Heroic Spirits] who are over level 60 or 70.

The fourth wave consists of [Legendary Heroes] who are over level 70 or 80.

Given the Archbishop of Dark Sun's hatred for him, Tucker could already guess the ruthless tactics the other party would employ.

This is a single, rule-based attack.

The effect of the [Forbidden Rule Fragment] is extremely powerful.

One [Forbidden Rule Fragment] can weaken the enemy by 10 levels.

In other words, this level 48 [Death Scythe Lord] Tak requires four fragments.

This would allow Tucker to obtain an 8th-level [Death Scythe Lord] in the next battle.

If you use 5 fragments, you can directly reduce the enemy's level to 1.

Level 1 is already the lowest level; you can't possibly reduce the enemy's level to a negative value.

Feeling the [forbidden rule fragments] gradually accumulating, becoming 3 points, 4 points, and 5 points.

Tucker let out a soft breath, and a smile gradually crept onto his face.

"In the extraordinary world, forbidden sealed artifacts are themselves one of the most powerful methods."

"Now that I have obtained the fragment of the forbidden rules, I am fully equipped to fight against all kinds of magical forbidden techniques."

"Let's focus on stabilizing our development first, and then properly harvest a wave of forbidden rule fragments!"

After having the means to deal with the forbidden stage of the Dark Sun Church.

Tucker then completely calmed down.

In Tucker's [Rapid Development].

The forbidden ecological power of this sealed land of Saint Land originally intended to destroy Tucker.

As a result of the surge of these forbidden ecological forces, Tucker's [Rapid Development] effect became exceptionally good.

Before we knew it, four or five hours had passed in the blink of an eye.

……

When the forbidden whirlwind outside begins to weaken, and can no longer actively gather into a whirlwind to attack Tucker.

The development log on the system's "Rapid Development" page has finally stopped displaying development information.

The disc-shaped Taco carefully sensed the outside world.

It was discovered that the dangerous and forbidden aura that should have existed in the entire forbidden sealed land had completely disappeared.

It's as if...

The forbidden power that had been contained within the sealed artifacts and permeated the outside world was completely eradicated.

Tucker, who had done extensive research on extraordinary ecology, naturally understood the reason.

Even though the forbidden sealed objects here are in a sealed state, they still exude the power of their sealing properties, spreading throughout this area and thus forming a forbidden ecosystem.

"When I absorb the forbidden ecological characteristics here, it's like cleaning this place up. They will be quiet for a long time until... the next convergence of forbidden ecological forces."

"This place contains a terrifyingly powerful forbidden sealed artifact; recovery will be quite rapid!"

Tucker then looked at his quick gains over the past four or five hours.

[Forbidden Rule Fragment]: 132.

132 forbidden fragments, not a large number, but still quite a lot.

This is sufficient to counter the impact of the Forbidden Veil Stage on Tucker's forbidden rules.

Even... Tucker might use this "Forbidden Veil Stage" set up by the Archbishop of the Dark Sun to strike a blow against the members of the Dark Sun Church.

"We've been in here long enough; it's time to get out."

"While I'm at it, I'll also take a look at those Death-level Sealed Artifacts I selected earlier, and see which one suits me best."

With that thought in mind, Tucker headed upstairs towards the area containing the [Death-level] sealed artifacts.
