Staring at Felipe's gaze, Lucian's heart froze, and he thought of something.
Both Viscount Karun Ardia and Felipe are sure that they are here to sabotage the "Pale Hand", and if he does nothing and watches quietly until the end, I am afraid it will arouse Felipe's great suspicion.
Even if he didn't test but followed quietly, he didn't have the ability to get rid of him, and things would become extremely troublesome. After all, knights who rely on their own feelings and traces to track are not as diverse and magical as magicians and priests of the same level.
Even if magic and divine magic do not necessarily have the attack and defense power of the same level of bloodline power, they are far superior in mystery and unpredictability, such as "Book of Astrology and Elements" has a lot of tracking and reconnaissance magic.
"Do I have to take the risk of 'sabotage'?" Lucian no longer had the idea of quietly waiting for the end, "But the degree of destruction must be mastered, if it completely angers Felipe, it is looking for death by yourself, but the destruction method is too simple and superficial will also cause suspicion. Only by letting Felipe resolve his 'destruction' with difficulty, and ending the death feast with a hard-won victor's posture is the best choice."
"What should I do, how to grasp it?"
Lucian felt more and more like he was cocooning himself, and after getting used to the benefits of taking risks, he finally fell into an extremely troublesome scene.
This is an experience and lesson that needs to be summarized, if you are still alive.
Just when Lucian was thinking about the "destruction" method and had no time to pay attention to Felipe's gaze, Sesi, who was the strongest magician in the former Wilfrid Territory, had to bite the bullet and continue to ask Felipe: "Mr. Felipe, due to the contract that cannot be shirked by the mission, I think the matter of going to the headquarters of the Magic Council can only depend on everyone's own wishes."
Speaking of this, he saw that the necromancers such as Tess, Sidney, and Quentin all nodded in agreement, while Felipe had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, so he quickly added: "Of course, I personally am willing to follow you to the headquarters of the Magic Council and join the Pale Hand. But before that, I would like to ask one more question, that is, in the country near the Magic Council, can corpses be collected openly?"
Felipe smiled with satisfaction at Sisi, who was the first to agree: "Mr. Sisi, according to the agreement reached between the council and several kingdoms, you cannot directly destroy the cemetery or kill ordinary people to obtain the body, you can only rely on money and temptation to sign an agreement with them to dispose of the body at will after death. Of course, the corpses you get from killing enemies, magical creatures, beasts, etc. are also yours."
"In this case, our experiment will probably become difficult unless the 'Pale Hand' can provide enough corpses." Cecil frowned and said, high-level magicians and other beings who can go to xeno space naturally don't care about local "human resources", but middle-level magicians like him who aspire to become big people rely on various rituals to improve.
Tess, Quentin, and others looked at the magicians and apprentices below, feeling all the same emotions as their companions. There were no corpses, no dead humans and powerful magical creatures, and those of them who inherited ancient magic could not see the slightest possibility of moving forward!
Seeing that all the necromancers and apprentices became hesitant, and seeing that Lucian was still in a mysterious silence, Felipe became a little irritable and said loudly a little crazy:
"You can never imagine how arcane and magic have progressed over the past few hundred years! Just as you can't imagine how to hold rituals and gain strength without human beings who die young, without pure death and life force!"
"Let me tell you, since His Excellency Vicente Miranda, the 'Lord of the Revenant', has cracked the mysteries of some souls, he has found a way to purify ordinary death and life force, and no longer needs to die of humans."
"Moreover, through the collision of 'Mental Power Fluctuation Theory' and 'Spiritual Power Particle Theory' that lasted for hundreds of years, more efficient advanced meditation methods appeared one after another, and the requirements were quickly reduced. Most of the meditation methods recorded in your magic books are outdated!"
Lucian listened carefully, very familiar with the words wave and particle, and also became very interested in the latest research results of necromancy.
In the quiet shock of the hall, Felipe continued to say loudly:
"Can you imagine that a hundred years ago, only advanced magicians could learn meditation, but now official magicians can learn it?"
"Can you imagine that new magic is born every month?"
"Can you imagine a twenty-year-old mid-level magician?"
"Can you imagine a thirty-year-old high-level magician?"
"Can you imagine a fifty-year-old archmage, an eighty-year-old legendary magician?!"
"Only when you go to the headquarters of the Continental Magic Council can you know how far arcane and magic have developed, and how vigorous and vital!"
"Maybe when you spent nearly a hundred years here becoming high-level magicians, your companions at the headquarters of the Magic Council were already archmages. And the hope of success is no less than that of you becoming a high-level magician."
In Felipe's almost roaring questioning, Lucian firmly decided to go to the headquarters of the Continental Magic Council, although he had a lot of knowledge, he lacked the channels to convert it into power, and in such a rapidly developing new era of magic, not progressing means falling behind! Only in the fertile soil can towering trees grow!
Felipe glanced at Lucian with a crazy and slightly provocative look: "You don't have to worry about being discriminated against at the headquarters of the Continental Magic Council, necromancy magic is currently the most popular and sought-after magic in addition to force fields and electromagnetic systems, because it is magic that studies the mysteries of life, the magical transformation between life and death, and various ways to extend life! In comparison, elemental magic is much worse. Although the human body is also composed of elements, without the integration of life force, it is impossible to practice anything on the human body by relying on elements alone, whether it is blood, muscles, or various impurities. Therefore, all studies that try to extend life by relying solely on alchemy and elemental magic have failed!"
"Human body refining and life extension, this is the door that the origin of the world only opens to our necromancy, and no faction of magic can match it!"
The inspiring speech made the necromancers and apprentices present nod one after another, and a strong sense of pride and yearning arose spontaneously. According to their understanding, the human body can indeed only be refined from human flesh or other living things.
Listening to Felipe's words, Lucian suddenly had an idea, could it be that the elemental magic here has not yet reached the stage of synthesizing organic matter?
But this is normal, there is necromancy magic here, and the theory of human life force must have more powerful and convincing results and public opinion atmosphere than the earth, so the research in this aspect of elemental magic was suppressed, but according to Lucian's current understanding, the human body, the soul, and the life force are not exactly the same, but are combined in a way that he cannot yet understand. It is definitely impossible to refine living people directly, but it is still possible to refine the substances that make up the human body.
"It seems like you can try it in this regard......"
As Lucian's brain was spinning rapidly, Felipe raised his hands and said loudly: "In such a magical era, you can access unimaginable wealth of knowledge by joining the Pale Hand, and the Pale Hand will also emerge more arcane and magical research results due to your joining. This is a good thing that both parties can benefit from cooperation. Therefore, I propose that everyone sign a magic contract with me, and then I will take the magician to the council headquarters, and I will leave materials, books, and guide the apprentices for a period of time."
He took a step forward, and his voice suddenly became slightly insanely cold:
"Who agrees with my proposal? Who is against it?"
After a moment of silence, Quentin, a young man with a friendly smile among the necromancers, thought for a moment and stood up: "Mr. Felipe, I still prefer a free life to be bound by the organization."
And there is also a gentleman from the Magic Council here, who may be able to obtain the road and method of getting to the council headquarters from the "professor" at other affordable prices.
Felipe turned his head and stared at Quentin with two pale flame eyes, his voice without any emotion: "Mr. Quentin, are you sure?"
"Yes." Quentin said a little warily.
Felipe nodded, suddenly raised his right hand, and pointed at Quentin, and suddenly the black surround light generated by the stress around Quentin shattered directly, and his body was shriveled with the naked eye, as if all the water had been evaporated.
He was killed decisively and neatly by Felipe!
A three-ring magician was killed by Felipe in one blow!
Felipe appeared beside the faces of countless vengeful spirits, they formed a transparent wall, and then he looked at all the necromancers and apprentices again, and said in an unchanging tone:
"Who agrees with my proposal? Who is against it?"
Secy and the others were a little sad and wanted to resist, but the "Wall of Wraith" next to Felipe was the standard five-ring magic, and the magic he just killed Quentin seemed to be an expansion and change of the object of the five-ring magic "Blight" for plant life, or it could also be a single entity of the eight-ring range-shaped magic "Withering".
Felipe's crazy momentum completely overwhelmed Sisi and the others, making them feel that even if they had level five items, they could not deal with him. So after a little sluggishness, as time went by, they were even more hesitant, after all, there were many benefits to joining the Pale Hand!
Their hesitation and dare not resist made the other necromancers and apprentices even more afraid to move, and the atmosphere was indescribably depressing and fearful. Even many apprentices with little experience trembled and their will was strongly shaken. The few who were unwilling to join such an organization became very desperate, but they themselves did not have the courage to stand up.
Felipe looked around and said coldly again:
"Who agrees with my proposal? Who is against it?"
There was a dead silence, and no one dared to look Felipe in the eye.
"I oppose it." A calm and gentle voice came from the crowd.
Felipe followed the reputation without surprise, and saw the professor with a black hood covering his face slowly pacing towards the platform.
"He really made a move."
