Astral Apostle Chapter 97: Showdown and cooperation

After a friendly talent show, the two re-seated.

Roman put his hands on his knees, and the rings in his hands looked like jewels under the light of the fire. He put away his smiling face, and his demeanor was at this moment, and he really looked a little unfathomable.

Zhou Jing seems to have sobered up, grasping the mentality of the characters, and showing the embarrassment that he thought his friend was an ordinary person but didn't expect to be a hidden master, and now he knew the other party's true face for the first time.

Being restrained for a while, as if unable to hold back his strong thirst for knowledge, Zhou Jing couldn't help but speak first:

"What is this power called witchcraft? Why has no one heard of it?"

Hearing this, Roman explained slowly:

"The history of witchcraft is not long. It appeared at the end of the tribal era. No one knows how the first wizard in the world discovered this power. It is only known that he taught this power to three disciples and instructed them People keep the secret of witchcraft, thinking that such power is not suitable for large-scale transmission.

Then the three disciples decided to make a rule. From now on, a wizard can only accept a maximum of three students, and secretly pass on this mysterious power... This is the sixth generation so far.

Wizards generally hide among the people, or live in isolation, and do not show their witchcraft, so it is normal that you have not heard of it. And for the sake of safety, there is almost no contact between wizards, and they leave on their own after leaving the teacher. Unless they meet by chance, they will not deliberately look for others. I only saw other wizards once in my early years with my teacher, and I haven't seen anyone else since. "

Zhou Jing was a little surprised, the history of witchcraft is so short, it is far inferior to that of the beast hunter... I don't know whether this power system was born in the native land, or brought by life forms from other planes.

Lin En is a wild person. Fortunately, he picked up an introductory guide to witchcraft. He didn't know anything about the origin and current situation of wizards. Only now can Roman, an expert, open his mouth to know more information.

According to Roman, wizards generally live alone and do not know how to communicate. In other words, they have no organization at all.

Zhou Jing's thoughts turned, pretending to be surprised: "So there are many wizards in the world?"

If this inheritance rule is followed and calculated with a multiplier of 3x, it seems that the sixth generation can have more than two hundred wizards.

Roman shook his head: "Not everyone is willing to accept students. Compared with teaching, most wizards would rather spend their time on themselves, and for some special reasons, recruiting students is not good for wizards. In addition, wizards often haunt In the wild, sometimes people will die when encountering strange beasts that are difficult to deal with, so the number of existing wizards is not too many."

"What particular reason?"

Zhou Jing pricked up his ears and spoke curiously.

Roman pondered for a while, and explained: "Well, I can tell you first... Practicing witchcraft is not as dangerous as the blood potion, but you must go out in the wild to find a kind called the spirit of nature. The special existence of the witchcraft, the power of witchcraft mainly comes from it.

The spirit of nature is very rare, distributed in some strange areas, the number is not unlimited, once obtained by the wizard, it will disappear, the spirit of nature in a region regenerates extremely slowly, and may even never regenerate. Therefore, every time a new wizard is trained, there will be one less natural spirit. This is the reason why the first wizard told his disciples not to spread witchcraft on a large scale, which later became the consensus of the wizards. "

Zhou Jing blinked, it matched the information he got from Lynn.

The spirit of nature is limited. To become a wizard, a person needs to integrate at least one spirit of nature. In order to become stronger, he needs to integrate more. Therefore, cultivating students is equivalent to cultivating competitors.

I feel that only wizards who no longer need the spirit of nature to become stronger have the leisure to recruit students.

"What kind of power is witchcraft?"

Zhou Jing became a curious baby.

Roman was not stingy, and explained a little bit, which is similar to Lynn's wizard guidebook, but more detailed.

At this time, he changed the subject and said: "Master Bill, have you considered it, and are you willing to accept my conditions?"

Zhou Jing thought for a while: "If a wizard can only teach three people in his life, can I learn?"

Roman nodded: "I have never accepted a student. If you agree to my conditions, I will teach you witchcraft. You don't have to worry about the risk of obtaining the spirit of nature. I will help you."

Zhou Jing feigned hesitation:

"But can I learn witchcraft? This kind of power really doesn't require any talent?"

If Roman answered no, it meant that they didn't want to teach him at all, but just used witchcraft as bait to catch him.

But Roman shook his head: "Not everyone can practice witchcraft, it requires talent, but you have no problem."

"How do you know this?" Zhou Jing was puzzled.

Roman looked Zhou Jing up and down, and said slowly:

"Wizards have a simple way to judge whether a person can practice witchcraft. The first is the perception of nature. Your special ability to analyze various herbs and medicines is a manifestation of the alienation of this aspect of aptitude. The basic conditions of a wizard.

Secondly, a wizard needs to be mentally strong... In terms you can understand, it means being energetic and active for a long time. You can work non-stop in the workshop, which proves that your mental power is stronger than ordinary people. "

Hearing this, Zhou Jing's expression became slightly strange.

So people who can stay up late and explode their livers have the potential to become wizards?

The standard is not only grounded, but also grounded.

[Item analysis function] has always been regarded as his special talent, and the internal volume in the workshop relies on the apostle's placement mechanism... These two made Roman misunderstand his aptitude. It is estimated that in Roman's eyes, he And a genius in the wizarding world.

No wonder this guy didn't worry about the embarrassing situation where he couldn't learn witchcraft to win him over. It turned out that through these two misunderstandings, he was directly judged to be qualified for witchcraft.

Zhou Jing seemed to be in a tangle, and after more than ten seconds, he gritted his teeth: "Okay, then I agree to your conditions, if you can let me learn witchcraft, and have a reliable plan to regain my freedom , I am yours."

Roman finally showed a satisfied smile: "Believe me, everything promised by the royal family is worthless compared to the power of witchcraft... You don't have to worry about me restricting your freedom like the royal family, only the ruler I just want to control everything, I don’t need you to work for me forever, the relationship between us is more like a cooperative relationship. You provide the craft of medicine, and I will give you strength.”

Zhou Jing did not respond.

There is not a high degree of trust between the two, and mutual understanding is limited. I am worried that Roman will turn his face after getting out of trouble, and Roman is also worried that Bill will sell him after the showdown.

Don't show hard stuff like witchcraft, it's hard to win Bill's trust with empty words, and there's no reason to seduce others.

After so much information, Bill has already boarded the pirate ship. If he retreats, Roman will not allow him, but he did not say the threat.

Even if it is a cooperation where everyone gets what they need, they will take risks at the beginning, worrying about this and that. If one party can completely avoid risks, it can only prove that the other party is 80% passive and at a disadvantage in the cooperation...Under the current situation, neither of them can get a 100% guarantee, and can only admit that there is an element of gambling.

At this moment, Zhou Jing asked something he had always been curious about:

"You say you are a powerful wizard, but why do you want to be a court minister and fight against the royal family? What are your goals and plans?"

Hearing this, the smile on Roman's face disappeared: "You just think I can't understand the so-called 'royal family'."

Seeing that people don't want to elaborate, Zhou Jing didn't give up easily, and asked:

"But I don't know anything about your goals or your influence. How can I rely on you? At least you have to tell me which side you represent."

Roman thought for a while, and said casually: "The Terra Empire has never belonged to the Tarn royal family, but to all tribes... I represent the interests of each tribe and have a legitimate position, so you don't have to worry about it." The hostility of the royal family, outside of the capital, cannot be decided by the royal family."

I didn't hide anything about it, but I still didn't say the target, but there is a high probability that this person won't reveal it... Zhou Jing secretly said.

He changed the subject and asked: "Then how are you going to take me out of the Golden Castle? You won't take me all the way from the main entrance of the Golden Castle to the capital?"

Roman was amused and shook his head: "It's too much effort, there is no need to make such a big commotion. I have a few ideas, you can listen to them."

"You say."

"Don't look at the tight defense of the Golden Castle. In fact, there are my people everywhere, and there are some secret passages. It is not difficult to send you out of the Golden Castle. The difficulty is not to be discovered. The most troublesome thing is to avoid following and monitoring you. The two guards, try not to have a direct conflict with them."

Zhou Jing agrees, the mindless and unhappy team has been watching, and it is difficult for him to start any action. Now the two teams of guards are still waiting outside, and they can be seen when they go out.

"So what are you going to do?"

Hearing this, Roman snapped his carrot-like fingers and said in a low voice:

"The first way is to sneak away at the wedding banquet. Two months later, you will marry Her Highness the Princess, and the king will hold a palace wedding banquet. At that time, the guards will not monitor you as usual, because it will be difficult to pass the scene, like prisoner, so you can move freely.

At the wedding banquet, you seem to receive the most attention, but in fact, others are the least prepared for you. The king thinks that you are about to marry a member of the royal family, and other people don't think that you will leave their wedding... This is the time to act, I The people who are here just took the opportunity to take you away. "

Zhou Jing is noncommittal:

"Try not to delay the wedding banquet...is there any other way?"

Roman rubbed his chin, pondered and said: "The second is the stupid way, find a chance to get rid of the surveillance of the guards within two months, and let my men take you to the secret passage to leave the Golden Fort, but the chance is not great, you The strength of the two guards is not weak, and they work day and night, and there is generally no gap. Even if I ask my subordinates to switch packages with you and pretend to be you, the blood warrior's sense of smell can immediately tell the difference."

"Then saying this is the same as not saying it, is there any more?"

"The third method is to take advantage of the chaos. If you can persuade the king to let you go, I can arrange for people to intercept and rob you in the chaos. If you can only stay in the golden castle, you can set fire to the city Or assassinate the king, in short, cause chaos, find a way to distract the guards... Of course, they may also be more vigilant to protect you."

Zhou Jing helped his forehead.

After listening around, the most reliable one turned out to be escaping marriage.

What kind of drama is this?

"Why don't you take me all the way to fight, even if I fail, I can still explain that I was kidnapped."

"Hehe."

Roman doesn't want to make trouble.

He paused, and suggested: "There are still two months, you can consider what method to use, I will make some preparations first."

"Okay, I'll go back and think about it."

Zhou Jing nodded.

Roman hummed, leaned forward suddenly, and said seriously: "We are together now, don't leak the news about what we said tonight."

"Don't worry, I understand, don't doubt my determination to regain my freedom."

Zhou Jing also put on a straight face, pretending to be serious.

The two discussed the details for a while, and the intention of cooperation was fully confirmed before the meeting ended.

Zhou Jing opened the door, walked away surrounded by guards, and disappeared into the darkness.

Roman watched his back disappear, and then called a few confidantes, closed the door and ordered.

"Activate everyone in the Golden Fort, all on standby, ready to receive orders at any time."

Several confidants nodded yes.

Roman knocked on the table, pondered for a while, and said: "Also, go to contact the various tribes and inform them that the plan can start. The king has faintly sensed the threat of the tribe, so he used new medicine to enhance the kingship and cultivate a larger Troops. Tell all the tribes ~IndoMTL.com~ that it will become more and more difficult for them to become independent in the future, so they can’t wait any longer, the longer the delay, the greater the gap in strength.

As long as we get the formula of the new blood-differential potion, or a pharmacy master like Bill, we will start fighting immediately! "

"Understood!" Several confidants solemnly agreed.

Roman lowered his voice and said in a deep voice: "Also, let our eyeliner pay attention to Master Bill's behavior these days, and tell me all the information."

It is impossible for him to fully trust Bill, and he still needs to send someone to monitor him, for fear that Bill will sell him and embrace the royal family again.

The confidantes took orders one after another and filed out, leaving only Roman in the room.

Roman sat behind the desk, kneading his temples, his eyes changing.

After preparing for so long, it's finally time to start... Although he had planned to take action, he never thought that it would be a pharmacist who would finally trigger this change.
