Chapter 522 Formation
With a high concentration of spirit, seven days passed in a flash.
Above the Navarin Island volcano, this special casting is approaching the final step.
Under the wide mountain pass, the original scorching heat faded at some point.
Even the boiling magma has solidified, leaving only a large area of black rock with interwoven patterns.
In the past few days, in order to supply energy to the Hellfire, Hermes' will went deep into the earth veins, causing the energy of the entire volcano to be constantly extracted artificially.
This volcano blessed by the God of Craftsman does contain a lot of fire energy, which provides assistance for the entire forging.
However, the energy required for the smelting of the artifact is too huge. After this incident, even if the forging is over, I am afraid it will be silent from now on, and there is no possibility of eruption for thousands of years.
In the air, the spirit is concentrated in one place.
Looking at the floating void furnace, Hermes' tired expression can hardly hide his excitement.
The furnace is not a physical entity, but a creation evolved from the Hellfire.
Inside it is the result of Hermes' hard work.
"Is this forging?"
"No, this is not forging at all."
"This is just fusion, blending, and extraction. It is not a qualitative change, let alone an exchange or sublimation."
"The only reason I can succeed today is that the materials used to make it are too strange... Of course, this is why it is more successful than I imagined."
The power of the magic fire is approaching its end, and the flames from the Lord of Hell are gradually extinguished.
If there is no external force, this divine fire could have lasted for thousands of years, but under Hermes' high-intensity use, it was consumed in the collision with the mutually repelling parts of those materials.
However, sensing the situation of the furnace, Hermes did not have a worried look on his face, because he did it on purpose.
As the founder of Chaos's alchemy system, he could not have been unaware of how long the Hellfire could be used.
But for this last step, Hermes did not want to use the power of others to complete it.
The alchemical creation he personally forged could only belong to him.
Swish——
Silently, a cluster of transparent flames suddenly burned in the void in front of Hermes.
There was no audible sound, and the so-called burning sound was just a mental illusion.
His face turned pale in an instant, but the spirit of the great alchemist became more and more excited.
This is the fire of the soul, the flame ignited by burning his own spirit.
As a former god in the virtual world, Hermes' own spirit happened to be the only part of him that was "close to God" at the moment.
Under his control, the illusory spiritual fire dissipated in an instant, and then wrapped around the outer wall of the furnace.
Gradually, the furnace body composed of magic fire faded a little bit, and was replaced by invisible flames.
Through the distorted space under high temperature, Hermes could vaguely see the situation inside.
The silver-white liquid gathered in a ball in the air, rolling like blood.
The black substance was wrapped inside, and it kept rushing left and right, but no matter how it struggled, it could not break free.
His eyes were sharp, and the pain of the ignited spirit reminded Hermes all the time. Looking at this scene, the great alchemist raised his hand and cut his wrist.
The bright red blood flowed into the flames, and the spirits and flesh from the real and illusory worlds burned together.
Faintly, in the intertwined flames, Hermes seemed to see a human face.
Lachesis seemed to be questioning him why he betrayed her kindness to him and raised the butcher knife in his hand to the goddess.
"... Fighting against fate... Does this require a reason?"
"I don't think so."
He asked back lightly, and then gave the result.
Stepping forward, Hermes looked at the illusory face.
He didn't know whether it was real or an illusion, but for him, the answers to the two were the same.
"For you, there is no need for a reason to clear the unstable fate."
"So for me, the same is true."
In this world, many things do not require reasons, only whether they are necessary or not.
So under Hermes' firm will, the spiritual fire suddenly rose.
In an instant, it seemed that many things in the dark turned into fuel for the flames at this moment.
There was Lachesis's deception of Paris, Hermes' understanding of fate and law in the virtual world, and some other things that were hard to explain.
The flames rose and rushed straight to the great alchemist's cheek, and then gently licked the master's temples.
In the light of the fire, Hermes looked warm and cold.
I don't know how long it took, at a certain moment, he stretched out his hand.
Buzz——
"Hmm?"
A buzzing sound came from the depths of all things. Standing next to the volcano, Ryan's original inquiring eyes could not help but change.
The next moment, from the empty void around, chains suddenly appeared out of thin air.
The laws of the world are echoing this creation-no, He is echoing the birth of this artifact.
Although it trapped the goddess of fate, it seemed that its existence itself represented something, which in turn aroused the cheers of the law.
His spirit was slightly touched, and as he watched everything happening in front of him, an inexplicable intuition came over him.
This artifact that had not yet been born seemed to be offending the authority of the spirit world - to be more precise, it was offending the authority that the spirit world had obtained from Chaos.
Their corresponding powers are trembling slightly, as if responding to the birth of this artifact.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and many thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.
At this moment, Ryan's fingers have even reached into the side of his robe and touched the leaves of another sacred tree.
As long as he wants, he can destroy the prototype of this artifact in the cradle, and then bring it back to the goddess of fate in another way.
But after a moment, Ryan finally gave up this plan.
As a split human nature, he can't accurately grasp the changes in the spiritual world at this moment.
Or even this remaining induction is not a good thing in essence. Because it proves that his split human nature is not as perfect as imagined-of course, Ryan has known this a long time ago.
In short, after the initial shock, Ryan regained his composure.
He was overthinking. Just relying on a divine artifact is far from enough to shake the foundation of the spiritual world, let alone taking the digested food from Him.
No matter how special the authority is, it needs equal support... Moreover, it does not make me feel dangerous or fearful, but rather a little close.
From all the signs, this artifact may have some special function, but it is probably not what I think.
Moreover, it is a creation made of materials provided by me... No matter what, it will never threaten me.
Tsk——
Turning his back to Ryan, he did not know that he had just walked on the edge of danger.
At this moment, the casting of the artifact has reached the most critical part.
The sudden resonance of the world law certainly startled Hermes, but after discovering that his refining was not disturbed, the great alchemist calmed down again.
The change was unexpected, but this change was clearly a good thing.
This is not only conducive to the casting of the current artifact, but also adds help to the formation of the future [Gate of Truth].
So he just silently recorded the information brought by the resonance of the surrounding laws in his memory, and Hermes took a breath.
The original text is available at # 9 @Book/Bar!
The next moment, he held the liquid in front of him, which had not yet solidified, in the air.
The invisible force acted on the rough artifact in an instant, and the strong recoil force rebounded along a mysterious trajectory.
However, facing this scene, Hermes did not hesitate to start the second and third times.
Three empty grips, three recoils, under the violent shock, the great alchemist's arm cracked like porcelain.
At the same time, the rolling liquid finally stabilized there, it formed a special shape, and then began to solidify little by little.
The main body is silver-white, and black and blood-colored lines are intertwined on it.
A strong breath of life was released from it, and as its forger, Hermes's originally broken arm was restored to normal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Obviously, no matter what other abilities it has, at least the vigorous vitality from the alien world tree has been successfully inherited by this artifact.
It may not be as good as the artifact that truly controls the power of [Life], but it is enough to compete with the golden cup of the goddess of youth.
As the artifact gradually cooled, the new order and law gradually emerged.
Looking at his final result, Hermes was filled with joy.
It should not be an independent artifact - if the Gate of Truth is materialized in the future, Hermes has no doubt that it can do this.
But even with many powerful materials, Hermes does not think that he can create a real artifact now.
As the basis for carrying its illusory door, Lachesis's stone ruler is another artifact with separate powers, and even if it changes its form with the help of the great power of God, the great alchemist cannot erase its essence.
Moreover, to achieve a true artifact, it must require a unique divine power, and obviously, Hermes himself does not have this ability.
It's just that everything is impossible with the inexplicable resonance of the world's laws. The origin of the artifact that was originally unchanged under the hellfire no longer persists.
Like spring breeze and rain, they separate as soon as they touch.
Even in this strange resonance, Hermes found that the memory he mixed in also underwent some special changes.
It interweaves with many other materials to form a new order.
Just like the world at the beginning of creation did not have the law of fire, it seems that he has accidentally added a new puzzle to the world.
It has no name because it is a new thing.
But if it must be given a name, Hermes thinks that [virtual reality] is more suitable to describe it.
In contrast, adding wisdom and shaping life are just additional functions.
Even if the leaves of [Yuktrasil] were not originally from the Nine Realms, and the mother tree had already explained [life] from another perspective, this new artifact might not be able to inherit these abilities.
"It seems to be successful?"
Immersed in joy, Kellen's voice came from behind, interrupting Hermes's fantasy.
The smile froze for a moment, and the great alchemist remembered that there was still a big problem around him that had not been solved.
"Yes, Mr. Ivan."
"Thanks to the great Lord of Hell, I was able to complete this masterpiece."
"As you can see, I succeeded."
"Very good, with the help of my Lord, your success is inevitable, Mr. Hermes."
"But since you have succeeded... then what is its use?"
Asked directly, because Ryan had watched the entire refining process of Hermes, he could have guessed the use of this alchemical wonder.
It may be able to give life, and drinking water soaked with it can make people immortal.
It may be able to give people wisdom, and using it to enlighten themselves can solve the mysteries that were originally incomprehensible.
Or it can be used as a tool to predict fate and spy on the situation in the past and future.
It is also possible to use it as a medium to turn it into a poison that curses living beings.
But no matter what it is, it is just a mortal creation that cannot reach the realm of authority.
And from the various abilities that it may have, it seems to be very similar to the "Philosopher's Stone" in later legends.
It is a life stone, a soul stone, and a panacea, which can be used as an equivalent medium to convert all creations of events.
However, this description is obviously beyond the realm of the mortal world, so Ryan did not hope for it at first.
Legends always contain exaggeration and falsehood, and similar things have been seen a lot.
However, with the accidental occurrence during the refining process, everything became confusing again.
A real artifact must represent its unique power.
But in the current state, Ryan cannot see the details of this new artifact.
Only its caster can accurately experience its power.
"It's just an ordinary artifact. It's nothing in front of the great Lord of Hell."
"As for its ability..."
After a pause, Hermes continued:
"I don't know why it has such a change."
"But its real use is probably to turn those false lives into real existences."
The memories that he added and the various divine materials mixed together eventually produced this unique change.
The spirit combined with the gradually cooling artifact, and vaguely, Hermes felt that he might be able to summon some very special existences with it.
