Chapter 331 GM
"First of all, I will briefly explain the principle of alchemy to the big brother based on my personal experience."
As soon as Xing Fei changed his voice, his tone instantly became professional.
As if to say.
No one knows alchemy better than him.
"Alchemy, which was popular in Europe in ancient times, is actually a kind of science to put it bluntly, and there is no mysterious power."
"Of course, some ancient alchemy books that have been handed down also have certain reference value."
"However, the alchemy I learned in a certain world is a kind of 'strengthening'. In that world, there is a supreme existence called 'truth'. Only when 'truth' exists can I clap my palms and release Alchemy. Otherwise, without being beaten and nurtured in that world, in the real world, you can only blow the flask and play with the alcohol lamp."
As Xing Fei spoke, he seemed a little swollen, and his tone began to growl.
Um?
However, Yi Lin noticed that Xing Fei was speaking poorly.
The flask... is it for blowing?
How to blow?
Xing Fei didn't notice the fault in the words, and continued to say:
"The identity of an apostle is equivalent to a medium, a medium that connects the real world and 'that world', allowing me to feel the 'truth' in the real world. I did an experiment not long ago, and let a Ordinary people, completely in accordance with the alchemy method, draw and form formations, brain supplement formulas, analyze material elements, and perfectly follow the principle of equivalent exchange..."
"But in the end, there was no reaction at all."

"So I personally come to the conclusion that certain types of strengthening require the blessing of a certain 'power of the world'. Without the apostle status as a medium, there is no way to perform this type of strengthening. Of course, there may be ways, but I will temporarily did not find."
Yi Lin understood what Xing Fei meant, and after pondering for a while, she inferred, "You mean, the person who summoned the alien creature in this way must be an apostle?"
"It should be exactly the same, otherwise it would be too weird. Speaking of this matter again, I checked some information. It is said that the black witchcraft that prevailed in the Middle Ages is similar to the magic in novels, but the steps are more cumbersome. They also It is through some media, such as animal and insect corpses, human organs, incense, medicine, and then use complex methods to complete rituals to show various abilities."
"Of course, I haven't seen these in reality. They are all legends. It's hard to say whether they are exaggerated or not. However, according to the scene you described, those hundreds of people sacrificed their lives voluntarily." , I have some ideas about summoning alien creatures."
Xing Fei took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and while flipping through the book, he said: "It is said that there is a black witchcraft ceremony of 'summoning the devil', which is similar to what you said. However, some experts have studied this history and said It was those wizards who were able to summon the 'devil king' because of hallucinations caused by taking a lot of hallucinogenic drugs."
"Expert... hehe."
Yi Lin chuckled, noncommittal.
"Well, in short, after using science to explain these mysteries, everything becomes ordinary. The video a few days ago probably slapped a lot of people in the face. In fact, I think it took the lives of hundreds of people to summon the Big guy, it is somewhat similar to the basic law of alchemy, 'equivalence exchange', using the same quality of life to exchange the same quality of 'creatures'."
"However, I'm curious. How to measure the value of human life? The value of each person should not be quantified, right? Age, weight, wealth, gender? In short, I think it's quite weird, and it's hard to fully explain it. Clear. This is beyond my field of knowledge, I think you may have the wrong person."
Unquantifiable?
No.
Yi Lin frowned.
Actually it is possible.
He suddenly remembered that every time he killed someone,
The resulting "chaos value".
Isn't this the embodiment of quantifying "life"?
From the perspective of "Tower", life can be quantified, weighed, and even recycled.
Erin closed her eyes.
He recalled the scene again.
After all the sacrificial victims committed suicide, a stream of blue light like fine sand gathered on their bodies...
After the Chimera appeared, the blue light that once surrounded her...
What kind of passage did it pass through, from its world to this world?
When it appeared, it was rotten all over. Is it related to the blue light?
While Yi Lin was thinking, Xing Fei said to himself: "However, although I can't give you the conclusion, I personally have a guess."
"Huh? Please tell me."
"Those complicated and cumbersome rituals, whether it is the size of the venue, the spells chanted, or the number of sacrificers, etc., may be equivalent to playing the role of a 'coordinate' to accurately locate a certain place in a certain world." Life, that may be the true meaning of these rituals."
"If you think about it according to the idea of alchemy, are these cumbersome steps, materials, and spells similar to some kind of 'formula', through different matching combinations, like codons, the corresponding 'monster' Call out."
coordinate?
formula?
a?
Yi Lin's eyes were fixed: "Is this kind of ceremony related to the specific number of sacrificers, or even the time when the ceremony starts?"
"There must be. These black witchcraft are most particular about the right time, place and people. The time to start the ceremony must be accurate to a certain day, hour, or even a certain minute. Even their position on the summoning array is also particular. This is all said in the book, I think they were so particular at the time, there should be some reason.”
Yi Lin was thoughtful upon hearing this.
He didn't say anything more.
After all, Xing Fei has nothing to do with this matter, and there is no need to involve him too deeply.
Yi Lin understood almost everything she should know.
When preparing to end the call.
Xing Fei suddenly remembered something, and added: "By the way, there is one more thing, about the fragrance you said you smelled during the ceremony. Not only in medieval Europe, but also in ancient Chinese alchemists, there are similar records, But there are only a few words that have been handed down, not many."
"For example?"
"In ancient times, it is said that there was a kind of powder made from 'bluebutter' as the main raw material. After being ignited, it would emit a mysterious fragrance. It is said that after someone inhales this fragrance, there will be a "back to the past, back to the present, At that time, I thought that these people were taking drugs, but I don’t know if it has something to do with it after hearing what you said.”
"This is somewhat in line with what you said about the neurotic state of the group of people at that time."
Going back to the past and going back to the present, wandering in the emptiness, completely forgetting yourself?
Is the next sentence detached from the world?
So fantastic?
In the end, Xing Fei ended the call in fear.
He swears that unless he dies, no word will be leaked about today's matter, even if it is a punctuation mark.
Xing Fei was afraid that Yi Lin would kill him.
In fact, Yi Lin thought about it carefully, and he didn't say any secrets that must be silenced to hide.
But since Xing Fei is so imaginative, Yi Lin can only let him go.
From Xing Fei's side, Yi Lin couldn't come up with a definite answer on this matter.
But it also expanded Yi Lin's thinking a lot.
After chatting with Xing Fei, Yi Lin saw that her psionic energy was almost exhausted, so she put away the mother and daughter Bai Xiaoyi and Nie Hongxiu who were enjoying watching TV, and prepared to go to bed.
Wang Tiandi's dog eyes widened, his breathing was short, and he pressed the remote control under his butt like a thief, as if anyone who dared to turn off the TV would be in a hurry with him.
Yi Lin could only let this stupid dog stay up late watching "Animal World" and go to bed alone.
Nothing to say all night.
the next day.
There are three poles in the sun.
Yi Lin woke up naturally after falling asleep.
It feels like I haven't slept in such a comfortable bed for a long time.
Master Ma's small dormitory was extremely aggrieved, if it wasn't for the situation, Yi Lin wouldn't go to bed a second time even if she was killed.
After waking up, Yi Lin wandered around the laboratory bored.
Unexpectedly, in one of the laboratories, Yi Lin found Pan Zhengyi.
Many young researchers are circling around Pan Zhengyi.
And Lao Pan was wearing a costume that was obviously an "experimenter", lying on the bed, laughing.
This guy, the dark circles under his eyes seem to be getting deeper.
How long has it been since I closed my eyes?
Yi Lin watched for a while curiously, and found that these researchers were doing research on Lao Pan.
"What's good for Lao Pan to study?"
Yi Lin slowly made a question mark.
It can be seen that Lao Pan has no worries about his life, and he seems to be enjoying it, so Yi Lin doesn't bother him.
This guy, with a terrifying lucky value of 8.6, it is estimated that only natural disasters can take him in.
Maybe he lived a more nourishing life than anyone else in the trial, so there was nothing to worry about.
After Yi Lin came back, she had seen her apostle panel.
Now I have a new understanding of "lucky value" and "charm value", two attributes that seem to have little combat effectiveness.
Luck and charm also have limits.
Call it a "lock".
In Litai City, with the help of [Blessing of Spearman], Yi Lin ordered the lucky value to break through the lower limit of zero by chance, reaching the realm of negative numbers, and even comprehended a powerful enhancement.
——【Echoes of Doom】.
When the lucky value broke through the lower limit, Yi Lin felt as if she understood something.
Ah, what a pain to comprehend.
The more unlucky he is, the stronger he is.
That feeling is very similar to the feeling he had when he broke through the mental lock back then, the joyful feeling that everything is under control, very comfortable.
But at that time, after all, it was with the help of props to forcibly break through the lower limit. When the effect of the props disappeared, Yi Lin's luck value on the panel returned to 2.6, and in the "Enhancement" column, [Echo of Doom] also dimmed, unusable, unavailable Check it out, it's gone.
After knowing that there is still such an operation, Yi Lin is full of expectations for the future trials.
Drop, you just drop, continue to drop, if you don't drop, I'm in a hurry with you.
Since then, Yi Lin has another secret.
After ignoring the nervous old Pan, Yi Lin found Molly again.
After all, if he returned to the laboratory without saying a word last night, he had to say hello to the master.
Molly looked surprised when she saw Yi Lin come back.
But what surprised Yi Lin even more was that Molly's first words were:
"Did you sneak back some time ago?"
"Huh? When?"
Yi Lin was taken aback when she heard this.
Why didn't I know when I came back?
"Not you?"
Molly was also stunned.
The two stared at each other for a long time.
Molly hesitated again and again, but still told Yi Lin that she got a mysterious USB flash drive out of nowhere.
"GM?"
What's the meaning?
The two closed the door, and the lonely man and widow were alone in a room.
After confirming that the surrounding area was absolutely safe, Molly handed over the mysterious USB flash drive to Yi Lin.
Yi Lin frowned, looking at the two letters engraved on the USB drive, lost in thought.
These two letters were not engraved with a laser. On the contrary, it seems to be carved on the metal shell of the U disk with a knife, and the workmanship is rough.
For some reason, Yi Lin always finds this font familiar.
But strange.
When Yi Lin was about to insert... into the computer to see the contents of the mysterious USB flash drive, Molly was so frightened that she snatched the USB flash drive back from Yi Lin.
That expression is very much like a little hen protecting a calf.
"Hun Dan, don't insert it indiscriminately! I specially encrypted this U disk, and it can only be opened with my dedicated computer in a specific way. Otherwise... it will explode on the spot."
"..."
