Chapter 64 The influence of the magic pattern
In history, a small invention can often change history and create a new era.
The invention of paper and printing press allowed civilians to read and read, and thus improved their wisdom and learned to think, thereby promoting the progress of the entire society.
The invention of the steam engine created the entire steam era.
The use of nuclear energy and the emergence of computers have also made the whole world different.
The changes brought to the world by some important invention are often earth-shaking, with huge and far-reaching impacts.
But not anyone can enjoy the benefits that great inventions can bring.
Usually, the first one to be impacted by new technologies is always the old order, and the top ones and vested interests standing on the old order.
Xiu Yi was not unaware of the value of the alchemy he had.
The magic pattern allows people to use magic without needing magical talent. The puppet army is better than the troops formed by warriors, with higher efficiency and lower costs. The former makes magicians no longer so noble, while the latter can more influence a country's decision-making and threaten the majesty of the king.
Arcane Tower cares about the status of magicians, and the church cares about their control and influence over the country. These two most powerful combinations of forces in the world were threatened by the same person.
Countless magicians and church holy knights were together to fight against a man and the huge army he built. The final result was a crushing defeat.
Thankfully, that terrifying legendary alchemist did not leave his alchemy.
These technologies quickly disappeared after a flash in the pan.
The magicians were thus able to continue their nobility, and the church was therefore able to maintain their sacred status, affecting every country on this continent.
Until the rise of Thuyglair.
Shortly after Souigrail escaped from Purgatory Island, the Arcane Tower and the Church had already known all the information about the young man. At that time they were not interested, because Souigrail did not have anything that threatened them.
But as time went by, Xiuyi gradually showed his powerful ability, and at the same time, he gradually exposed the details of some research materials about Electra. This made people panic.
The church can ignore the fact that Xiu Yi is a soul wizard, but it must not accept the influence of Xiu Yi and other countries joining forces to manipulate the political situation.
The Arcane Tower can ignore Xiu Yi's magical ability, but the appearance of magic patterns is definitely not welcome.
Shuyi has obtained three Electra notes, the first one was obtained from Purgatory Island, and there is no record of magic patterns. Therefore, the Arcane Tower was not interested in him, and only the court magicians were sent by the Empire to chase him, but this had nothing to do with the Arcane Tower.
But then Shuyi got two more Electra notes.
Although this incident was not known to others, Xiu Yi's endless alchemy is enough to make everyone doubt it.
No one knows that Ablitz owns an Electrotri notes and the Spirit Eatering Ring. But it is definitely not a secret that he has the secret map of Electrotri's laboratory. After Ablitz died, the secret map was lost, and everyone can guess who did it, but they may not believe that Xiu Yi can find the laboratory.
But Xiu Yi showed his powerful alchemy power and created a terrifying existence like the Black Warrior. The worst thing is that the Black Warrior had magic patterns engraved on his body.
The nature of things changed immediately.
The magicians of the Arcane Tower believed that Shuiglare must have found another Electra's laboratory and obtained the secrets about the black warrior's production methods and magic patterns. Although this speculation is different from the facts, the final result is that Shuigla has magic patterns manufacturing technology and resources, and he has the ability to create a large number of artificial magicians.
This is definitely not a phenomenon that the old men who rely on their magical talent and practice hard to become magicians are happy to see.
It's a warning from the Arcane Tower!
It must be them, Xiuyi is almost certain.
Only the Arcane Tower and the Holy Spirit Church are qualified to ignore the orders of His Majesty the Emperor and continue to pursue him, and even warn him before chasing him.
The Arcane Tower’s warning is not to let him not show up publicly, but to let him not to let the magic pattern secrets be revealed. This warning is obscure and has too much meaning behind it, but it is in line with the usual style of the Arcane Tower magicians.
Old guys always like to be mysterious. As for whether the other party can understand it, it is not their consideration.
If Isador had not been reminded by Naper, perhaps Xiuyi would never have thought of the simple commissioned assassination in his life and there were many complex and profound meanings behind it. Of course, Isador; Naper understood it because he was a magician himself.
"When I heard that you might have mastered the secret of the magic pattern, I had not yet come into contact with you. At that time, I also thought of killing you. The nobleness of a magician is not only because we have excellent magic abilities, but also because we are rare. Under normal circumstances, no matter how many magicians you kill, you cannot offend all magicians in the world at the same time. But if you have magic patterns, you are destined to be a thorn in the eyes of all magicians. Of course, for church mages, we are not only magicians, but also clergy. The latter has more important significance than the former, so your sense of threat to the church is not that strong. But for the Magicians Association, this sense of threat is so great."
"So, unless I vow to never use magic patterns, they will not be able to let me go?"
"That may not be true. Even if you don't use magic patterns to build an army yourself, you can pass on this technology. For them, as long as the magic patterns exist for one day, they will not be at ease."
"That's to kill?"
"It's also hard to say. Because the Magicians Association is a loose organization and does not have strong restraints. Most of the time, everyone studies magic together rather than dealing with an enemy together. In this regard, they do not have enough experience. What's important is that the group of old men in power in the Magicians Association are mostly obsessed with magic and rarely talk about the world. A considerable number of them do not like to kill, at least not keen on. Therefore, they may not support all the ways of solving problems by killing you. Simply put, some people may think that you must die, while others may think that there is no need to make a fuss about it. Those who think you must die usually enjoy a secular reputation, and those who don't care about it usually live in seclusion in the wilderness."
"This is why I have to issue an order to kill me through the Assassin League. Just because these old men are seeking fame, I will first use this to warn me. If I don't listen to my advice, I will kill me and then put the charges on the Assassin League? Or I will be killed directly by the Assassin League killers, which will save them from trouble? This practice has caused me to be warned now, and even guessed what's going on, and I can't blame them, because all this is just speculation."
"The typical arcane tower behavior pattern is very interesting, isn't it?" Isador; Naper smiled.
"It's too mother-in-law, not decisive at all. These older men are like a bunch of bitches, who want to sell themselves but are still worried about their reputation."
"It's right. But there is no definite answer to this matter so far. We don't rule out that there are other people who do this. Compared to this matter, another thing needs to be much simpler and easier to judge."
"One other thing?"
"We got a news that Hamilton had come out of Grabis Hill." Isador; Naper said with a serious expression: "This is a very dangerous signal. We think it is very likely to be for you. Compared to the Arcane Tower, this is a bit more likely."
"Who is Hamilton?"
"A fanatical Holy Spirit believer, his hands are covered with the blood of my teaching people. He has a very high status in the Holy Spirit Church. He is one of the three warlords of the Knights of the Glory. He has the title of God's favor, but people prefer to call him a purge. He is the executioner of the Holy Spirit Church, with a fierce and cruel temperament, and he specifically eliminates dissidents in the church. Wherever he goes, he will panic.
Xiu Yi's face gradually became solemn: "How is the strength?"
"Very high. The strength of the Sky Warrior, combined with the twelve top sacred spells, is not weaker than a star powerhouse. In addition, there is a whole team of 100-person Saint Knights under his command. Usually such a team includes at least seven or eight high-level church priests and a special combat team of no less than ten people. All the power in your hands can't be their opponent. Xiuyi, hurry up and let go of everything there and come to the Southern Continent. Only here is you safe, and even the Holy Spirit Church can't do anything to you."
However, Xiuyi shook her head.
"I'm sorry, Master Isador, I don't intend to escape my own war." Xiuyi answered the other party in this way.
In his opinion, Isador and Naper's words were not so kind, but rather a temptation under coercion. It was as if Shuyi had used the outside encirclement army in the Spark Prison to force the prisoners to make a choice, but the old guy was actually using the same method to force Shuyiglare to surrender to him.
Under the current circumstances, he is in the Northern Continent, and the God of Scourge is insufficient here, so he has many dependences on Xiu Yi and can only use joint and transaction methods. If he goes to the Southern Continent, the situation may immediately change greatly. It is unpredictable whether the people of the God of Scourge are still so reasonable.
This is also the reason why the transaction has been negotiated but Xiu Yi has not been carried out immediately.
He must first improve his strength before he can lay a teleportation array in the southern continent. He must ensure his safety. In this matter, no one can help him except himself.
Only those who are outside the control of the Scourge Church can these people be trustworthy.
The old man obviously guessed what Xiu Yi was thinking, and he sighed: "If I said we have no intention of threatening you, you may not believe it. But it doesn't matter, your caution is necessary. Trust between people is established through long-term relationships. I believe that as time goes by, you will truly understand and trust us. Xiu Yi Glair, if you are going to come to the South Continent to lay a teleportation array and perform transactions, we can designate a rough area for you. You just need to find a secret place there to lay the array, and then tell us the location and you can leave first. Before you have truly powerful power, we can do not make further contact to avoid any possible unnecessary misunderstandings."
This time, the Holy Land Master showed true sincerity. Xiu Yi was a little surprised, but finally nodded quickly: "Okay, after this practice is over, I will go to the Southern Continent to build a teleportation array to complete the content of our previous agreement. Isn't the Holy Spirit Church going to attack me? Let's give them a fatal blow first."
Isador; a strong smile appeared on Naper's face: "I'm looking forward to that day, oh by the way, what do you plan to deal with the Arcane Tower?"
"For them?" Xiu Yi raised his eyebrows: "In this case, just do a very simple thing, it can be solved."
"What's up?"
"Turn the idea they worry about into reality." Xiu Yi paused word by word.
Aren’t you old guys worried that the spread of magic patterns will lead to the emergence of a large number of magicians, and the status of magicians will be affected? Since this is the case, I will simply do this and cut off your mind.
When the magic pattern appears in large numbers, I am afraid that the Arcane Tower will not have the intention to kill Xiuyi. Because the embankment can only be used for flood control and cannot play any role after the tsunami. When the tsunami comes, people usually change the word "It is better to drain than blockage."
Xiu Yi saw through the key point at a glance. He was not affected by the will of those big figures at all and made his own decisions.
Looking at Isador; Naper, Shiuyi said: "Are you interested in adding another deal? You provide materials and I provide technology. I allow the people designated by the Scourge Church to enjoy the benefits of magic patterns. I can help you have a large number of magic knights at once, and even make the original Doom Knight stronger."
Isador; a spark of excitement flashed in Naper's eyes: "This is the deal I have been waiting for for a long time. Shue Glair, the Church of the Scourge has made you a friend. We will stand on your side without hesitation when and wherever we are."
The conversation from afar has finally ended.
Xiuyi stood there alone, thinking hard about the changes in the situation and his due measures.
Unlike the previous struggle with the empire, the new opponent is stronger and less personal grudges.
Private grudges can be resolved, but disputes over interests are difficult to eliminate.
What should I do?
Where will the future go?
Should we continue to fight as hard as before? Or should we retreat and build a net first and wait until we are strong before making a comeback?
Xiu Yi fell into long thoughts.
He was immersed in his consideration of the future situation when Carmela suddenly heard from a distance: "King of Rhinoceros! There is a King of Rhinoceros left the crowd!"!~!
