Chapter 325: Die first to show respect
The huge energy contained in the scroll exploded.
Under the constraints of the arcane, the turbulence of the astral world was also temporarily forced to be smoothed, and an elliptical astral channel about two meters high was generated and opened.
When Pete recognized what this thing was, he was pushed into it by Nicole!
Level 5 magic - [Teleportation]!
Quickly teleport the life and objects entering the astral channel to the coordinates left when the scroll was copied!
The powerful arcane energy directly tore apart the effect of reducing the sense of presence created by the illusion magic. However, the astral channel created by the magic scroll appeared quickly and disappeared quickly.
Bacon and Petwin had time to notice only the last space ripple left before the astral channel disappeared.
"Hey? Where's my brother?"
"Hey? Where's Miss Nicole?"
The two asked different questions.
…
“Bang! Bang!”
“Ouch!”
Pushed into the astral channel almost without any defense, the chaotic and weightless feeling brought by the transmission process made Pete lose his balance when leaving the astral world. He fell to the ground without even standing.
He seemed to have bumped into some furniture.
He finally came to his senses.
Pete found that he seemed to have come to a living room with exquisite and gorgeous decoration.
Looking at the noble lady who appeared in front of him, Pete fell into silence.
A few seconds ago, Nicole was still asking him for help, saying that she needed the help of the believers of the God of Knowledge to stop her mother.
But now Nicole sent her directly to Countess Ceylon.
Countess Ceylon seemed to ignore Pete and cast her eyes directly on her daughter, Nicole Ceylon.
Her tone was faint.
“Nicole, you are doing something dangerous again.”
“I warned you to stay away from other churches.”
“Why didn’t you listen?”
It was obviously a very calm voice.
Somehow, Pete felt his hair stand on end, and his instincts warned him of danger.
Nicole Ceylon's face was full of struggle and unwillingness:
"Mother, give up!"
"You are the one who is doing dangerous things!"
"Isn't it enough to control me alone?"
"You are already too deep! You shouldn't believe those people's lies. Your father is gone. Accept the reality!"
"False illusions can only deceive yourself, and the reality cannot be changed!"
Pet was shocked by this family ethics drama.
He knew why the God of Knowledge wanted to send down the oracle.
Countess Ceylon, a famous 5th-level wizard! Her identity and deeds are even talked about by King Reyak.
Such a being is actually a heretic!
She can use the magic of the goddess of illusion!
Moreover, the proficiency of the magic has obviously broken through the entry and proficiency levels, and it is very likely that it has reached the "control" level.
Pete had been baptized with the knowledge of illusion magic, which was the ultimate difficulty of "control". Although he was shot in the head that time, he also had some understanding of the so-called complete illusion magic.
In extreme cases, as long as there are enough [illusion fragments] required to cast the magic, the illusion magic is even enough to replace a person's "words and deeds".
But it is extremely difficult to do this.
This is not just about using illusions to influence people's cognition.
Instead, it is necessary to re-edit a complete set of "illusions" to replace them all the time.
When the other party wants to drink water, give him an illusion of picking up a cup and drinking water into his mouth;
The action made by the other party is actually a hard punch to himself!
In order to ensure that all this is not discovered by the person involved, all details must be corrected in real time, and every action and every perception must be perfectly replaced.
Pete even felt that the effect of this magic was beyond the limit of mortal ability.
It is impossible for someone to take care of all the details perfectly at the same time.
As a result, a living example has appeared now!
Nicole suddenly changed her expression and tore open the scroll halfway through her words. The reason why she forcibly teleported Pete to the Countess's castle was obvious.
Her behavioral cognition was tampered with by the illusion created by the Countess!
Maybe in Nicole's "cognition", she was still anxiously explaining the situation to Pete.
But her actual action was to personally push Pete into the astral channel opened by the 5th-level magic [Teleportation].
Countess Ceylon said coldly:
"Nicole, I've told you many times."
"Don't try to tell the news to other people in the church."
"Don't try to seek help from others."
Pete finally found a chance to interrupt.
"Countess, please wait a moment! We... have some misunderstanding!"
"It's not Nicole who is seeking our help, but we are helping the Goddess of Illusion under the guidance of the God of Knowledge!"
"Since you can use her magic, you should know that the Goddess of Illusion is in a bad situation."
"Whatever you plan to do, I think we can be on the same side!"
Before the Countess could reply, Nicole next to her had desperately answered Pete's proposal in advance:
"Impossible."
"Because my mother is using the 30 followers of the Goddess of Illusion to reset the Great Illusion again and again, tampering with their memories, in order to use their cognition to cultivate the Sep Skov who perfectly matches her memory."
"She wants to use this method to create an illusion that allows her father to think, act, and live like a real person just by maintaining the existence of the big illusion."
"So she won't let you bring those illusion believers who are immersed in the Palace of Paradise back to reality."
"...I'm sorry, Sir Qinnar, seeing you trying to turn off the Great Illusion, I wanted to give you a warning, be careful about my mother."
"But my plan this time... was still discovered by my mother."
"She won't let you leave the castle."
Peter swallowed.
He glanced at the lofty Countess of Ceylon in front of him.
Fight, he definitely can't beat him.
Level 3 versus Level 5.
If the other party casually recited a magic spell, it would probably be enough to crush him to ashes.
Peter is not afraid of death.
What he was afraid of was not being able to die and not being able to find his body after death.
After all, it's not easy to reach level 3. If you can't pick up the corpse, you have to accumulate legendary experience again.
The other party was both a fifth-level mage and a master of the magic of illusion. If they really wanted to fight, Peter wouldn't even be sure whether his "death" was really dead or a false death created by an illusion.
He had to find a way to honor himself by dying first!
In an instant, Pet's mind was spinning and he had an idea.
Trying to put an expression of despair on his face:
"My Lady Countess, I have only one last request."
"Can you at least give me a chance to try?"
"I want to challenge you to a life-and-death duel!"
"If I fail, please leave my body intact and send it back to the cemetery outside Qim Town!"
…
