This Lich Needs More Money Chapter 70

Chapter 70: Magical Prayer Technique

Although Apoptotic Rose is also a legend, she majors in necromancy.

The legendary favor of Death Gaze allowed her to accumulate a large army of undead in the Underdark. She has always only focused on the research of necromancy and has little involvement in other aspects.

Amberxiu is different. He is the type who is curious about everything, wants to try everything, and cannot settle his mind. Otherwise, he would not throw away the power of the prophecy school at will.

Before being promoted to legend, he was very interested in everything related to magic.

　　Thanks to the various methods of extending life in this world, Amberxiu had enough time to satisfy his curiosity when the youth potion was not too expensive. Alchemy, magic construction, necromantic school, prophecy school, evocation school, divine arts, etc., almost all of them have been studied for more than ten years. Maybe he can't reach the pinnacle in a certain magic, but in terms of knowledge, there are not many people in the nine kingdoms who can be better than him.

Hence, Amber Xiu recognized the structure of the sewer at a glance as a modified wish magic circle.

The reason why it looks like alchemy is because this group of lunatics have significantly modified the magic circle, turning the magic originally performed by individuals into a huge ritual, trying to simplify the difficulty of casting spells.

After carefully studying the drawing, Amberxiu came to a conclusion: "It's a genius idea, but only a madman would do it."

Prayer is one of the most powerful spells that can be mastered by the gods.

The most high-end spells often only require the simplest method of casting. Casting the prayer spell only requires a simple action, and does not require any sacrifices or preparations for casting. Not even magic power is required.

It sounds like the cost of casting the spell is out of proportion to the result, which is almost a miracle.

However, few people in history have been able to successfully perform the Wish Technique, because the principle of the Wish Technique is to make a wish to the entire world and put forward your own requirements, and the laws of the world will give you a test, which is about your understanding of the laws of the world.

The difficulty is almost equal to the "Millennium Problem of Mathematics" that Amber Xiu had seen before traveling through time. It is a century-old problem that countless geniuses in history have been unable to solve.

Mathematics, is it difficult? You can do the math with just a piece of paper and a pen, so it's not too difficult.

The same goes for the test of wishing. You name it, it doesn't require you to give anything. As long as you can answer the difficult questions given to you by the laws of the world. It's not difficult, right? There's no way to cheat on this thing. If you can, you can, and if you can't, you can't. No matter how much wealth you have, how high your status, or how powerful you are, they can't help you in the test of wishing.

The only thing that can help is your own wisdom.

This is the special nature of the prayer technique. Everyone can perform it, but no one among hundreds of millions of people can truly understand the nature of the world.

Only a few gods can use the wish spell without restrictions, because they are inherently part of the laws of the world.

And the fate of mortals who fail to cast the wish spell is very tragic, and it belongs to the kind that has an age limit written in the book.

But even if you are lucky enough to answer the difficult questions posed by the world, it does not mean that your wish spell will be successful.

The wish spell and the perfect wish spell are two different things.

　　When your wishes are realized, the way of realization is often unsatisfactory.

The Law of the World is an administrator who strictly abides by the rules but doesn't like to take advantage of loopholes. The wish spell means that if you take advantage of the loopholes in the rules, the Law of the World will try its best to make your wish cause side effects as a punishment.

It's like making a wish to resurrect a dead relative. Resurrection means resurrection, but it's hard to say at what age or state. If you don't make it clear when you make the wish, it's very likely that you will be resurrected directly to the time when you were just born without any memory, or to It's the time when you are old and frail and about to die of old age.

If you make a wish for your enemy to die without specifying the specific method of death, it is very likely that you will be thrown directly into the future hundreds of years later. Your enemy's children and grandchildren have all died, but you have simply skipped these hundreds of years and are incompatible with everything.

In short, the wish spell is a trap. People who seek death like Amber Xiu will not play the wish spell. Regardless of success or failure, there is a high probability of problems.

And this group of lunatics in the Alchemy City focused on the wish spell, and boldly transformed the wish spell into a ritual magic.

Amberxiu has studied the various structures on the drawings and roughly guessed the effect of this ritual magic. The first one is to extend the casting time.

The prayer technique works instantly, just like a math problem. If you can do it, you will get it, if you don't, you won't get it. The result will be available in an instant.

However, this ritual magic extends the problem-solving time. By how much it can be extended and at what cost, Amberxiu cannot yet tell, but it is certain that this magic requires continuous casting.

Can the solution be solved by extending the time? Just like some people can't solve a mathematical problem for you for hundreds of years, the time to solve the problem has never been the key to the prayer technique. Amber Xiu didn't know what these crazy people were thinking, but this function occupied most of the magic circle and should be the basis for all other effects.

The second effect is sacrifice.

Flesh, soul, magic, strong emotions, etc., almost anything can be used as a sacrifice for this ritual magic. This magic circle is large enough, otherwise it would be almost impossible to achieve this "all comers are welcome" effect. Different sacrifices have different magic circle structures when they are sacrificed. Such a design that overlaps and does not affect each other is an ingenious work.

No wonder those lunatics in the Alchemy City did not hesitate to deceive fate and forge a prophecy.

This is to attract ambitious people from all over the continent to adventure in the sewers of the Alchemy City, and everything they have will become a sacrifice for this ritual magic. Even if they are lucky enough to escape, the emotional fluctuations during the adventure will provide a source of energy for this magic circle. strength.

It's really amazing. It's not just a genius idea. In order to achieve this outrageous effect, I don't know how much money this group of lunatics spent on research and improvement. Decades or hundreds of years, tens of millions or hundreds of millions? This kind of all-or-nothing madness can only be accomplished by a group of alchemists.

Amberxiu quickly took out his notebook and copied it, and wrote a lot of experience notes along the way. This is all extremely valuable knowledge.

But after copying it, Amberxiu fell into deep thought again. Is sacrificing these things of any use to the wish spell?

According to the principles of magic, only wisdom is required for the wish spell. What's the use of sacrificing more flesh and soul?

Amberxiu looked at the incomplete drawing and felt itchy in his bones.

If this ritual magic could be cracked perfectly, how much would it be worth if sold! All spellcasters in the Nine Kingdoms will go crazy for it!

In addition to these two most obvious effects, there are also auxiliary effects such as concealment, stability, illusion, etc., which are all used to maintain the operation of ritual magic. The drawings are too rough, and Amberxiu cannot figure out all the details.

This group of lunatics turned the entire sewer into a magic circle for wishing, and it seems that the magic circle is already in operation.

So the question is, what did they wish for?

Concerning the prophecy of the destruction of the Alchemy City, did these madmen make a mistake when they made a wish?

Has he been punished for not completing the test of the wishing technique, or has the wish description been inaccurate enough, and has he been severely manipulated by the laws of the world?

There is too little information, and Amberxiu can't draw a conclusion now.

Smells the smell of danger, Amber is ready to discuss it with Apoptotic Rose, hoping that the Queen of the Undead in the Underdark can give her some advice.

But before he could send another message, an origami phoenix with fluttering colorful wings flew in front of Amber Xiu.

The letter automatically unfolded. It was an official document from the City of Alchemy, requiring him to hand over all Allen and other paladins. At the end of the official document, there is this sentence: "The wishing machine is ready and can accept your wishes at any time."

Amberxiu looked at the official document and then at the incomplete ritual magic drawings, and a bad premonition emerged.

Damn fate, it seems that the time to lose your head has really arrived.

Editor's notice, it will be put on the shelves tomorrow and will be updated at 12 noon. It is definitely necessary to be explosive, but I dare not say how much explosive it can be. To be conservative, I would say at least five chapters and ten thousand words, just a lot more. I hope you can subscribe and support me more. The higher the subscription, the higher the motivation for writing. Thank you all!
