The old woman's turquoise eyes emitted a strange light, and Lucian's head immediately became dizzy, and he didn't know what he was doing.
When he was awake and conscious, Lucian realized that he was lying on a silver-gray platform, like a patient waiting for surgery or a corpse about to be dissected.
With a few clicks, Lucian's wrists, ankles, neck and other places were fixed by the silver-gray metal rings emerging from the platform, and cold thin needles pierced into the blood vessels, bringing indescribable tingling and slight paralysis.
"This ancient inheritance magician is at least a high-level ......" Lucian did not panic, secretly judging the old woman's strength, although his spiritual power was imprisoned, but his soul was still the soul of the four-ring magician, if it weren't for the huge gap in strength, otherwise it would be difficult to be "instructed" so easily.
Two black tentacle-like pipelines seemed to come to life, swimming from mid-air to the sides of Lucian's head, and sticking to their temples.
"This seems to be a magical item that records soul changes?" Lucian had never found a record of the human experiments of ancient magicians that required electric shocks from the data, and almost thought that he had encountered Professor Yang who had also traveled through time, so he could only judge the final goal from the experimental magic circle, magic items, etc., and then seized the time to speak: "This lady, are you conducting an experiment to stimulate soul changes with electric shocks? I think I am more useful as an assistant than as an experimental material."
The old woman laughed strangely like an owl: "Jie Jie Jie, in fact, you are much more useful as an experimental material than an assistant, I rarely meet a middle-level magician here. Your mutated soul can bring me new experimental data and make up for the foundation of my improved magic rituals."
Seeing that Lucian still wanted to speak, she pronounced a strange word, so Lucian opened his mouth but found that he couldn't make a sound.
"Little guy, words are just a false weapon, don't try to influence my decisions. Here, I am the only master, and I can only decide whether to conduct the electric shock experiment or not, and I don't need to consider any other factors!" The old woman's expression was slightly crazy, "I've already read the letter on you, but what do the two legendary magicians have to do with me? Can they find it here? Threatening to get me? Will I be afraid of them? Can I get out? I should complete the experiment as soon as possible and find a way to improve my strength, so that it is possible to open the ...... there."
Lucian really wanted to shout: "Then you should let me go! We can sit down and discuss together to find an effective way to improve our strength, and I have a lot of similar experimental data here!"
Unfortunately, such a cry could only be blocked in the throat and turned into a beastly sound.
Trying to calm himself down, Lucian thought solemnly: "Her language is confused, her logic is unclear, and she shows signs of going crazy. In this way, communication will be very difficult unless she finds what she desires most. Hey, I'd rather meet an evil and cruel magician who is in a normal state of mind."
"Judging from the description of her words, she is also a magician imprisoned in the Demon Land, the third survivor in the mouth of the young servant, and seems to have been trapped here for a long, long time, no wonder her mental condition is problematic. If you want to impress her, maybe you should start with this. However, I don't know anything about this place."
The old woman picked up the magic wand beside her that seemed to be a curved black snake and pointed at it, and small silver-white electric snakes appeared on the metal rings that fixed Lucian's wrists and ankles, eagerly burrowing into his body.
The wrists and ankles were first burning pain, followed by strong numbness that made Lucian feel unspeakable pain, his muscles began to twitch, gradually losing consciousness and becoming numb and weak, and his brain and soul seemed to be pierced back and forth by countless thin needles, bringing extreme pain.
Lucian would rather increase the current to the limit, so that he would fall into a blank space and no longer feel unbearable pain, but at this time he could only force himself to hold on and not let himself faint.
If you lose consciousness, you will not know what hidden effects this experiment will have on your soul!
The current gradually increased, and the tiny silver snake seemed to converge into a whip, constantly beating and paralyzing Lucian's body and soul.
Lucian had no strength to grit his teeth, nor could he clench his fists, so he could only hold on to it, his only belief was that he could not give up or give in.
The soul slowly began to expand under the stimulation of the current, as if to stimulate all its potential, but the pain was more intense and unbearable.
Half-dazed and half-awake, Lucian heard the old woman's voice in a daze:
"At 1 minute and 23 seconds, the soul began to change."
……
"In 4 minutes and 10 seconds, he was still able to hold on, as if he had some firm belief that made his soul and brain unconscious."
"Could it be that the strength of faith can affect the soul in reverse? Instead of being able to translate into the will of a knight as was commonly understood in the past."
"Will is also produced by the human body and may have a mysterious connection with the soul."
"Maybe all transcendent powers are essentially the same, and Your Excellency Sun King Thanos and many legendary magicians have been trying to touch that most essential truth through the increase in power. The world is complex and simple, and perhaps there really is the only essence that makes up everything."
……
The old woman deviated from the purpose of her experiment and began to observe unexpected situations.
I don't know how long it took, just when Lucian thought he would fall into "electric shock hell" forever, the feeling of paralysis subsided, and the throbbing pain and weakness all over his body subsided.
"Very good! You are more suitable as experimental material than I thought." The old woman did not skimp on her own satisfaction, although this satisfaction was not what Lucian wanted.
Then she looked at Lucian carefully and said with a smile: "When your soul stabilizes and recovers, we will conduct follow-up experiments. As long as you can survive, you will have very, very big gains."
Lucian found that he had regained his ability to speak at this time, so he tried: "This lady, I have a wealth of data and many newly developed magic in human body and soul experiments, which may be helpful to you."
"Oh, look, look, a little boy is trying to guide me? Am I stupid and uninformed?" The old woman used the magic staff as a crutch and pestled it on the ground, her rickety body moved back and forth as if it was about to bend, her voice wanton and vicious, "Have you ever been exposed to high-level magic? Have you analyzed their principles?"
"I don't, but behind me is the Magic Council, and there are many legendary magicians, archmages, and high-level mages who have conducted countless experiments on the human body and soul, and relevant information can be found in the library." Lucian slowly recovered from his convulsions and weakness.
The old woman's shriveled mouth cracked, revealing a flat dark red ginger, and her eyes flashed with crazy light: "What's the use of that? How high can you access the data? Can you help me open up there? Can it restore my vitality and youth? Can you break free from confinement?"
Her mental state seemed to be very unstable, so she waved for the young servant to take Lucian back to her cell.
Lucian couldn't communicate with a madman, so he could only hope that she would calm down and remember her words and be moved by the experimental data.
Getting rid of the identity of experimental material is the most urgent step at the moment.
…………
When he left the magic laboratory, Lucian was still in the aftereffects of the electric shock, so he walked very slowly, but the young servant had no idea of helping him and walked ahead on his own.
"The soul seems to have strengthened. Does electric shock stimulation really work?" Lucian checked his condition and was quite surprised to find that his soul seemed to have taken a potion for a month.
Calming down, he sensed it carefully, and Lucian thought thoughtfully: "It doesn't seem to be directly enhanced, but stimulates the untapped potential of the soul, and such electric stimulation only harms magic apprentices and ordinary magicians whose souls are not strong enough, and has no effect."
Back near the cell, Lucian saw another young servant bring out a tall blonde man with dark blue eyes, a tough appearance, and a determined gait from the room to his left.
"Another survivor and experimental material?" Lucian was not sure, because this imprisoned demon land seemed to have native humans, such as the servant next to him.
The two passed each other and looked at each other, but no one spoke.
…………
With a click, the iron door was locked, and Lucian lay on the bed to regain throbbing pain and weakness, and it took a full half hour for him to slowly return to normal.
Then Lucian raised his hands and carefully analyzed and calculated the patterns on the black confinement bracelet, which were inextricably linked to the composition of the magic circle inside.
Lucian probably knows and analyzes that when making magic items, almost all magicians will arrange other types of magic circles outside the core to achieve the functions of assistance, punishment and communication.
Although the possibility of finding such a method was extremely slim when he could not use his spiritual power and bloodline power, Lucian was not ready to die. I have never been a person who gives up at will when the difficulty is too great, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I must work hard to pursue and grasp it.
After carefully studying the magic patterns for an hour, he probably mastered some of the structures of the imprisonment bracelet, but the next analysis could not stay on the surface, and the power of the imprisonment bracelet must be stimulated, so that he could see the flow of the magic runes without spiritual power penetrating!
"Is it a punishment or a summons after the provocation?" Lucian thought with some concern, some of the confinement bracelets warned of any attempt to open by harming the body and soul, while others reported the attempted actions to the guards.
For Lucian, what he was most worried about was the latter, which might lead to his demise.
After thinking about it, thinking that the old woman's experimental materials were extremely scarce, and that the effort to open the bracelet should be to give warnings and punishments first instead of directly dissecting it into pieces, Lucian gritted his teeth and put his right hand on the black bracelet on his left hand.
While this thought made sense, Lucian still carries a strong sense of unease in his heart, as the behavior patterns of a mad magician are difficult to predict.
Twisting the black bracelet to lift the needle-like thing stuck in the bloodline a little, Lucian tried his best to activate the power of the moonlight bloodline.
The light black demonic light suddenly lit up, and bursts of electricity were transmitted from the needle-like thing to Lucian's body, making him feel the pain of paralyzing needles again, while the strange power quickly dissolved and suppressed the moonlight bloodline.
The light disappeared, Lucian closed his eyes in pain, and the magic runes, marks, and models flowing in his dark vision appeared.
"It's just a punitive magic circle...... Lucian was happy to find this, "It's just that the time to be stimulated is too short, and only a few runes can be remembered."
Taking a few deep breaths, Lucian waited expressionlessly until his physical condition recovered, and then twisted the black bracelet again, trying to activate his own bloodline power.
Again and again, again and again with electric shock pain, again and again with demonic light shining, Lucian's face was distorted, biting his lip until it bled.
I don't know how many times, just when Lucian felt that his brain was empty and slimy as if it had been stirred by a knife, a relieved smile finally appeared on his face, because the complete structure of the imprisonment bracelet had been reflected in his mind!
"Knowledge is power!"
Lucian sighed secretly, and at this time, there was a soft knocking sound on the wall on the left.
