Throne of Magical Arcana

It was already eleven o'clock at night when Lucien left the chant hall, only sporadic lights could be seen nearby, and most of the carriages were empty in the darkness.

Harvest Moon is hot during the day, but as long as it rains, it will be very cool at night. Being blown by the clear night wind, Lucien can't help but feel refreshed. Waking up in surprise, he was walking while thinking: "It seems that we will leave the Aderjan area in a short time. We must clean up the laboratory first, so as not to be found by homeless people after it is vacant. If the spirit is summoned, it would be best tonight! Tomorrow, I will concentrate on buying moonlight roses."

Moonlight rose is a magical plant that assists knights and servants to stimulate blood power. Its growth itself has strict requirements on the environment, and its output is not high. In addition, becoming a knight is the best way for poor people and ordinary people to become nobles. People who need it There are many, so even if the price is expensive, the supply is often in short supply, and even the nobles can completely digest it. The average person can only rely on luck or buy it from the black market at an even more outrageous price. The best way is to become a knight's servant , After being able to stimulate the power of the bloodline, he will be rewarded by the knight.

The moonlight rose resources of the Principality of Violet are concentrated in the hands of the church, the Violet family and several other big families. In addition to their high titles and powerful family knights, this is why they are the most powerful big families in the Principality of Violet. one of the reasons.

Therefore, Lucien turned his idea on Phyllis. She is a member of the Hayne family and the niece of Earl Hayne. She failed in the battle for the title, and her relationship with Earl Hayne was poor, but this did not prevent her from being qualified to purchase the Moonlight Rose within the family.

In fact, Phyllis has already bought it, but after failing to stimulate the blood power three times, she can only concentrate on the road of music.

"The problem is how to convince her? And how to dispel her doubts about my purchase of Moonlight Rose!"

Lucien walked down the steps of the chant hall with slight annoyance. The last time he was stopped by the night watchmen, Lucien had lingering fears. He had to speed up his strength improvement. If Phyllis refused, he could only take the risk of going to Al the black market of Tortoise, or attend a secret gathering of magical circles.

At the entrance of the chant hall, there were only two ordinary carriages parked there. Joel was talking to Alisa, John and Alina with a red face about what he always thought Lucien was very talented in music.

Seeing Lucien approaching, Joel laughed and stretched out his hands, hugging Lucien firmly: "Little Evans, your dream of being a musician and my dream of the chant hall have all come true. It was a dream night. You are your father and our pride."

Although Joel just joked that Lucien had a dream of becoming a musician before, since Lucien began to study music with Victor, Joel felt that Lucien might really want to become a musician.

After Lucien was hugged, he couldn't help but secretly embarrassed: "Can you stop hugging, I'm really not used to this kind of etiquette, how nice it is to shake hands!"

After Joel hugged, John also gave Lucien a hug. He was a little excited, and his strength seemed great: "Lucien, you are really a musical genius, and I am proud of you. I thought I would become a knight first."

Hearing this sentence, Lucien's heart moved slightly. Maybe he could use John as a reason to come to Phyllis to buy Moonlight Rose. people appreciate.

And Lucien also had this plan originally, that is, after he has a certain amount of wealth, he will try his best to buy moonlight roses and help John become a knight. Later, the same is true. In his mind, their position was more important than Victor's.

The only question is what to convince Phyllis, money or something else?

"I've just started, and I won't be called a musician until I've stabilized for at least two or three years. Maybe John, you will be able to mobilize your blood and become a knight soon." Lucien replied to John with a smile.

John shook his head and let go of Lucien: "I have just become a high-ranking knight servant and started to learn characters. I am not in a hurry to be promoted. The more solid the foundation, the easier it will be for me to succeed in the future."

To stimulate blood power, the first time has the highest success rate, and it will decrease each time after that. After the third time, unless you get some special medicines with great after-effects, you will never be able to succeed.

Elena stood aside, saw Lucien and John separated, stepped forward to hug Lucien, smiled and said: "Congratulations on your success, Lucien, no, it's time to call you Mr. Evans."

"We're friends, so don't be so restrained, or I won't guide you in music study." Lucien responded jokingly.

Although there are city gates from the administrative area to the Aderjan area, they are not closed under normal circumstances, but are guarded by soldiers. After sending Elena away, Lucien and Joel's family returned to their hut.

…………

Lying on the bed, all emotions calmed down, Lucien was half asleep and waited until after one o'clock in the morning before he suddenly got up, checked carefully, and entered his magic laboratory silently.

After spending an hour on the table with many special alchemy formations, Lucien used a sterling silver dagger to carve out several magic traps before taking out a box from the box in the corner that was preserved with the magic of "preserving organs". Pipe the dark red blood, and at the same time open the magic notebook on the table next to it and in the soul library, so that it is convenient to record things about the wraith at any time.

Obtaining Wraith Dust is Lucien's main purpose, but by the way, it is normal to study this undead creature, and it is close to the soul. Studying it will help Lucien strengthen his own soul and understand the undead Class magic.

Opening the glass test tube engraved with magic runes, a strong smell of sulfur wafted out, and the dark red blood rolled out bright red bubbles from time to time like magma.

Lucien chanted the difficult spell, his mental power connected to a certain alien space, and then sprinkled the devil's blood forward.

The dark red blood stopped in the air strangely, and differentiated into drops of blood at an unbelievable speed.

This drop of blood quickly formed a small magic circle full of blood and evil, and evaporated suddenly.

In the light red blood mist, a transparent figure suddenly appeared, its hands, feet and face were very blurred, only the thick resentment and malice could be clearly felt and even seen.

Although he still doesn't understand the principle of the space here, the structure of apprentice-level magic is relatively simple. Lucien has gone through many virtual exercises, and "summoning low-level undead creatures" is a smooth success.

As soon as the transparent figure whose face could hardly be seen appeared, it opened its mouth, seemed to let out a sharp and piercing cry, and rushed towards Lucien, as if feeling the life that he loathed and hated. .

Lucien didn't panic at all, the magic trap was activated, and the air around the wraith became disordered, binding it firmly like a rope.

This is the "spirit binding" apprentice-level magic specially used to bind spirit bodies, but it has a corresponding high-level version, which can transform a knight into an undead creature called a spirit corpse, while retaining the original strength and intelligence. On, gain undead traits.

At the same time as the scream came out, a transparent ring-shaped wall appeared around the wraith, and one after another sound ripples could be seen vibrating on it.

The trap "Muffling Barrier" arranged by apprentice-level magic.

Since the screams of the wraith were canceled out by the sound-absorbing barrier, Lucien didn't have direct contact, but he still felt nauseated, had a slight sense of vomiting, and "heard" a shrill voice in a trance.

"The scream of the wraith has a certain intensity but not high infrasound. It has strong penetrability and does some damage to the human body, so it cannot be heard directly." The attack characteristics of the wraith were instantly recorded on the screen. "The sound of this frequency seems to be able to cause people to have mental hallucinations. They feel that they'heard" the scream of the wraith. It is a bit special. You need to write down the approximate frequency range of the fluctuation."

Due to limited strength and equipment, there are many things that Lucien cannot accurately quantify.

The spirit body was restrained, and the screaming was neutralized by the sound-silencing barrier. The wraith was struggling in place helplessly, becoming more and more crazy.

Unmoved, Lucien let it bark its teeth and claws in front of him, activated the alchemy array on the table, and golden rays of light lit up one after another.

"Weight, 21.26 grams, heavy, more than expected." Lucien recorded the data measured by the alchemy array expressionlessly, "Strength cannot be measured..."

After recording the basic data, Lucien began to recite the incantation, cast apprentice-level magic on the wraith, and record the effect.

"The mage's hand penetrates directly and cannot touch the spirit body."

"Acid splash has no effect."

"Ray of Frost has no effect."

"Hormanz's coughing, the Wraith's transparent body fluctuated to a certain extent, causing a small amount of damage. It is initially suspected that the cause is wave interference or magnetic field disturbance."

"Marris's small flame has a small amount of effect, and it is impossible to determine the cause."

The apprentice-level spells were cast one by one, and Lucien preliminarily evaluated the effects and speculated on the reasons.

The wraith gradually became less crazy than before, and became more transparent, shrinking into the magic trap of the binding spirit as if afraid of Lucien.

Lucien watched the reaction of the wraith, and continued to record calmly: "There is a small amount of instinct left."

Then Lucien cast pure lighting apprentice-level magic such as light technique and dancing light technique, and saw that under their illumination, the wraith became excited and wanted to avoid it, but was restrained and could not dodge, so in the light , its kind of malice and malice disappeared little by little, but the speed of dissipation was very slow, not as good as the church's holy light attack.

"Wraiths of this level are very afraid of strong light."

"The weight seems to have changed slightly, but the alchemy array in elementary alchemy cannot be measured."

…………

After finishing all the experiments he had prepared, Lucien looked at the wraith that was already curled up into a ball, shook his head and smiled and said, "You are free."

Until now, Lucien had the illusion that he was destroying nationally protected creatures.

After a few strong light spells were cast, the wraith, which had already been seriously injured, completely disappeared, and a little bit of transparent, shimmering dust slowly fell into the magic trap.

If it happened suddenly, Lucien really didn't know if he would be able to kill a wraith smoothly, but with preparation, magic is always the most powerful, and he killed this wraith so easily and simply .

The dust fell completely, and Lucien recorded the data: "21.25 grams, considering the error of the alchemy formation, it is difficult to judge whether it is consistent and whether the consciousness of the wraith has weight."

After making the experimental records, Lucien collected the wraith dust into a glass test tube, and then slowly made some preparations for dismantling his own laboratory, and gathered some utensils and items together.

…………

The next day when worship began, Lucien got up and walked to the Musicians Association. He had already become Princess Natasha's temporary music advisor, so he was obviously no longer suitable to continue his work as a librarian, and the income from the concerts was too much. You have to go to the association to get it.
