"Professor?!"
The apprentices exclaimed and looked at them all, but they didn't expect that in the almost solidified atmosphere, someone would dare to stand up and face such a terrible and crazy Felipe.
Watching the professor walk calmly and steadily towards the high platform, the necromancer and apprentice spontaneously felt a strong sense of joy, relaxation, and dependence, because no one wanted to make a choice with a forced and arrogant attitude, even if a significant number of them had already weighed the pros and cons and decided to join the Pale Hand.
The joy and encouragement quickly faded, and a deep sense of worry and fear emerged in his heart, with Felipe's terrifying strength, could the professor deal with it?
The slightly timid "fat man" collided his teeth and whispered: "Teach ...... Mr. Professor, you should ...... You should be sure, right?" I don't know if he was talking to himself or asking his companion next to him.
"Mr. Professor is a big man in the purification sequence, of course there is no problem." The short "bread" is comforting both his companions and himself.
"Red Wine" and "Grouper" still looked at the calm and cold Felipe in fear: "Perhaps, maybe Mr. Felipe is also a big man in the purification sequence...... Otherwise, how could the pale hand send him here?"
In the anxious gaze of the necromancer and the apprentices, Lucian climbed onto the high platform and walked towards Felipe, his heart was divided into two diametrically opposed halves of ice and fire, half as calm as ice and snow, and half under the rebound caused by strong pressure, all kinds of bad tastes inexplicably emerged, such as wanting to wave his hand and say sadly to the bottom: "I'm late!"
Felipe's crazy eyes converged, his pupils were deep and calm, but it seemed to be more dangerous than just now, he bowed slightly to Lucian gracefully: "Mr. Professor, what do you want to oppose? I stand here, there is no way out, if you can't come up with a reasonable explanation, I think only one of us can continue to live."
The corners of Lucian's mouth twitched, and countless self-mocking answers came to his heart: "Don't be so crazy, okay...... Don't do it at the slightest disagreement...... How bad is it to fight and kill...... Let's sit down and talk slowly and seek a win-win path......"
Lucian understood that this was the best way he had waited for a long time to get out of the current dangerous situation, so he tried to keep his tone gentle and restrained: "I come from the 'elemental will' and have no idea about recruiting necromancers."
Don't completely anger Felipe.
Felipe was slightly stunned, what does the professor mean?
And the magicians and apprentices such as Secy and Tess, who were looking forward to focusing on Lucian, were even more stunned, and said to themselves: "Mr. Professor, you don't have any ideas to stand up against anything? Moreover, he is also from a magical organization...... Or the elemental system."
Lucian changed his subject: "But I don't really like the way you force it, Mr. Felipe, everyone here has the right to make their own choices. Whether it is difficult to break through here and continue to live a dark life, or follow you to Alinge and exchange your 'sacrifice and dedication' for a large amount of benefits, you should let them choose for themselves and bear the corresponding consequences."
"Hehe, Mr. Professor, you said it very well." Felipe took the lead in applauding lightly.
Then his eyes stared at Lucian without the slightest smile: "But what if I don't agree?"
It seemed that Lucian's answer was slightly wrong, and he would take action immediately.
Lucian didn't seem to notice the dangerous oppression Felipe was inflicting, and still smiled calmly and calmly: "Moreover, I disagree with Mr. Felipe's evaluation of elemental magic just now, and I want to discuss this issue."
"What evaluation?" Felipe felt that he couldn't keep up with the professor's ideas, and he had been discussing the choice of necromancers and apprentices-for-tat, but how he had inexplicably shifted to elemental magic, which eased his state of readiness again.
Originally, after hearing Lucian's words, Sesie, "Fat Man" and other mages and apprentices were very much looking forward to him winning the right to choose for himself and others without being threatened, regardless of whether they were elemental magicians. But now the change in topic has left them extremely blank, what exactly does the professor want to do?
"It's Mr. Felipe, you think elemental magic is difficult to refine alone. You think that the foundation of the human body is life force, and without its integration, it is impossible to cultivate anything in the human body by relying solely on elements, whether it is blood, muscles, or various impurities, right?" Lucian asked quickly.
Felipe didn't expect Lucian to want to debate this issue with him, and he laughed: "Of course it is. The mysteries of the human body are not something you elemental saboteurs can understand."
"Mr. Professor, from the results of human research since the ancient magical empire to the general views of the arcanists within the council on similar issues, I can't find any basis for my doubts about this evaluation. Even the church recognizes that life force is the essence of the human body, and without life force, it is impossible to regenerate limbs with broken limbs, etc., but they believe that life force is given by God, and we are still looking for answers from the exploration of all things in nature and from the origin of the world."
"Decades ago, after several high-level magicians tried to refine human muscles simply with elements and failed, didn't you elemental magicians also admit this view? Do you want to express a novel opinion that overturns the research results of all previous arcanists and magicians?"
Felipe's series of words was like countless sharp throwing knives thrown at Lucian, full of aggressive flavor. This is not his disdain for professors, but a long-standing notion at work. The "Human Life Force Theory" is one of the basic doctrines of necromancy, which has laid the foundation since ancient magical empires. If it is overturned, the mysteries of the human body and life will again become unimaginable.
They have not experienced the development of arcane knowledge, and their attitude towards ancient magic books such as the "Necromancer" is like that of devout believers facing the "Holy Scriptures".
If it weren't for the professor helping them oppose Felipe, I believe many people would be full of anger because this is a provocation to "necromancy"!
Even Viscount Karenerdia, who had been in leisurely viewing mode, frowned and sipped his lipstick wine, which was a bit subversive of arcane common sense.
Lucian saw that his doubts had successfully diverted Felipe's attention, and quietly clenched his fist and waved it in his heart: "Sure enough, according to Felipe, a magician with great strength at a very young age must be far superior to others in mastering the corresponding arcane arts. Felipe himself fully qualified. And this kind of person is definitely very interested in arcane, and when they encounter doubts about their ability to do arcane, they will inevitably have a strong reaction that surpasses other things."
Looking around the hall, his eyes fell on Sidney's seemingly stitched face: "It seems that only Mr. Sidney, you agree with my doubts?"
He was the only one whose expression had not changed, and the corners of the other hooded mages and apprentices were the only ones that were exposed, and the two gloomy necromancers, Secy and Tess, couldn't help but show a hint of mockery.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Professor, but my face cannot make any expressions due to the aftereffects of the transformation ceremony." Sidney replied expressionlessly.
"Pfft", a low laugh came.
Lucian turned his head indifferently, looked at Felipe with a shallow smile but full of sarcasm, and said in a very soft and gentle voice: "Mr. Felipe, if I say that I can only use simple elements or lifeless substances to refine what the human body contains, do you believe it?"
On Earth, the field of organic matter (the human body is mainly composed of organic matter) has also been occupied by the theory of vitality for a long time, but with the artificial synthesis of organic matter such as urea and acetic acid in the 19th century, this mysterious theory was completely destroyed.
Lucian's voice was not small, but the scene became quiet, extremely quiet.
Felipe suddenly felt that the professor in front of him was crazier than himself, did he want to achieve anything by making a fuss?
"Hehe." Felipe's laughter broke the sudden silence, "Mr. Professor, if you can refine the things that make up the human body without relying on living matter, then I think your research results will definitely cause a sensation in the entire Alinge and the entire Magic Council, and you are qualified to receive the 'Holm Crown' award. However, none of the winners of the "Holm Crown" award so far have relied on such research results to obtain the ring. And I also think that no one will ever be able to win an award based on similar research results, because this is a 'privilege' of necromancy!"
"So, please stop talking nonsense and say what you really think! Otherwise, I will fight you because of your provocation!"
Cecil was awakened from the "hallucination" by Felipe's serious voice, and his mummy-like face stretched rarely: "Hehe, Mr. Professor should be joking, so that everyone can relax without dangerous hostility."
"Yes, otherwise how could he question the theory of human life mechanics." Tess nodded in agreement.
There was also laughter below, not believing that Lucian was serious at all.
Lucian looked at Felipe's gloomy face and continued to smile calmly: "Whether it can be refined or not can only be determined by doing experiments. Mr. Felipe, if you don't want to believe it, then let's make a bet."
"If I can refine the living things contained in the human body without relying on living matter, then you will announce the identity of Sturk's liaison to everyone and let them choose for themselves, whether to go by themselves or rely on the 'Pale Hand' to break through; If the refining fails, then I apologize to you and leave immediately, and I will never interfere with the death feast again." What do you think?"
"Mr. Professor is actually serious!" Incredible thoughts welled up in everyone's minds.
