Chapter 332: Conquering Nicholas (Part 2)
Salin smiled and said, "Nicholas, you said."
"I want to be a follower of the adults." Nicholas gritted his teeth. He was already a level nine magician. Although he had fallen, his strength had not decreased. Following a level six magician made him blush. Fortunately, when he gets old, his skin will become thicker, and Salin can't tell.
Salin moved his left hand and looked at Nicholas Nicholas's expression calmly.
"Why?"
"In the contract with the adults, I just can't hurt him. If I become a follower, even if I am a subordinate of the adults, I can't hurt him. I just want to be a human being. "
"Okay." Salin didn't say much, and he took out another blank scroll and started writing.
The two of them quietly signed the second contract, and Salin then smiled and said, "Nicholas, it's not easy for you to make this decision."
Nicholas replied sternly: "After you, you will always have a day to make a comeback, and I have no choice."
"You won't regret it. I originally planned to let you stay by my side and just stop causing trouble. Now, Nicholas, you may not have the day you will be free. Give me your soul bead."
Nicholas handed over the Soul Pearl to Salin again, and Salin looked at it. He took out a tourmaline from the demon's ring, then put the Soul Pearl and the Tourmaline together, and began to refine it in front of Nicholas.
When Shui Yan appeared, Salin dissolved the tourmaline, threw the soul pearl into it, and released a trace of life force, integrating it into the soul pearl. Green divine texts appeared on the tourmaline, mixed with magical words and three-dimensional magic patterns.
Nicholas was dazzled, even he could not achieve such a method of refining.
His soul bead was refined into a larger bead by Salin. The bead was green in color and had twenty-four holes on it. Nicholas could still absorb power from these twenty-four holes, but because of the contract, others could no longer control the soul bead. The soul bead and the tourmaline were completely integrated. If they wanted to destroy the tourmaline, the soul bead could not be kept.
In other words, from then on, even Faka could not control this soul bead. Only Salin could control it.
A simple material rule blocks all the paths to use this bead. As for the divine text inside, it is the magic of the goddess of nature. If Faka turns his head to believe in Goddess Meles, it will be easy to re-control the soul bead with his power.
The question is, can Farka change his beliefs?
The magician's means may not be based on his own strength, but can reasonably utilize the rules of this plane. The Meers Continent is called the main plane. As long as it does not leave the Meers Continent, this rule is higher than the rules of other planes, even if it is a rule set by the gods.
"Sir Salin..."
"Well, from now on, your power will not be restricted by the Faka. As long as you don't cause trouble for him, he will not attack you. And I will not let you directly deal with the envoy." Salin said in his temple that his temple was built in square shapes, and the standard configuration of the magic tower was standard.
In the magic tower, the magician basically ensures his own safety. At least the small rule areas in the magic tower are not something that Farka can interfere.
When Faka secretly approached Salin, he was also in the port. If he were in the temple, Faka would have no way to control Salin without realizing it.
"Nicholas, I didn't want to control people like this, but your power comes from the Pearl of Soul. I don't want you to suddenly become an ordinary person when you are doing things for me." Salin said word by word.
Nicholas held the soul bead in his hand, and the tourmaline naturally emitted an electric current. This current was extremely weak, flowing in the three-dimensional magic pattern, and fending on its own. The soul bead was hidden in the surroundings of these currents.
Nicholas knew that even magical arts would be destroyed by electric currents. There were once magicians who used tourmaline to refine arrows to kill armor blessed by magical arts, which was effective. However, the number of tourmalines was too small and it was difficult to mine, so it was just an experiment that could not be promoted. There were too many ways for magicians to destroy magical arts, so this method did not become popular.
But this does not mean that tourmaline is not valuable. The price of a tourmaline stone is more than most gems. The most common function of tourmaline stone is to heal magic. When humans suffer severe damage, their hearts will stop beating, stimulate the current in tourmaline, and input it into the human body, which can restore the heart to vitality.
Using this method, intermediate magicians can save those who have just died like magicians.
"Sir Salin, Farka's power is probably more powerful than that of a level nine profession." Nicholas reminded Salin.
"Don't be afraid, he can destroy this thing at most, but he can't control you. He really turns his back on me. As long as I don't leave this temple, he will have no choice but to do anything to me. If he dares to enter the temple to cause trouble for me, you will also see how I killed the Golden Sword Saint." Salin answered calmly.
Even though Nicholas was worried, he believed it a little. Because it would take some trouble to let Faka kill the Golden Sword Saint, but Salin only used one piece of equipment to instantly kill the Golden Sword Saint. This equipment is really powerful, and Nicholas also knew that this equipment has limitations.
But what Salin said was not a boast. If Faka entered this temple, his actions would be greatly restricted, and Salin could easily target the target.
People like Farka are absolutely unwilling to take risks with their lives.
What Salin didn't tell Nicholas was that if all the mages on Srieg Island came and built a magic tower, Faka would not be able to move freely in the entire Metatlin City.
It’s not that Salin wants to break up with Farka. If he deals with Farka, Joey will naturally take action. Joey took the Seal of Divine Power, and he was originally going to target Farka. Salin just ensures his safety first and then thinks about other things.
After so many times of life and death, Salin is no longer afraid, but he has done more meticulously.
"Sir Salin... Thank you." Nicholas knew that he was still too far from Salin and could not gain trust immediately, but Salin had already given him a way out. As long as Salin could control him, trust would be generated accordingly.
Salin did not discuss this topic in depth. Anyway, Nicholas surrendered, and he had a level nine profession by his side, which was very useful. Nicholas was much more useful than the two level nine magicians. After all, those two mages could only help him guard the West Town, while Nicholas could be sent anywhere.
"Nicholas, since the contract has been signed, you will live here. I will send you a few people as helpers, and for the time being, don't take any positions. Every day you accompany me to communicate some things and the affairs of the Holy See. What kind of subordinates do you want to have? I have undead and demons here, which are much more useful than humans."
"Sir, do you have ordinary demons?"
"Yes. What?"
"Give me twelve, and I let them swallow the Cardinal's soul, and they will become a demon abominable, and will always be hostile to the Holy Church. I will feel at ease if I use it."
Nicholas looked at Salin and looked forward to it. The demon has the ability to swallow souls. If he succeeds, he can also use the depravity magic on the demon, which is equivalent to an extra layer of insurance. In the future, whether it is Farca or Dinicio, it is impossible to erase himself instantly. These twelve demons are actually scapegoats.
Although Nicholas and Salin signed an unequal contract, what he feared most was Pope Dinicio Salin very much needed his ability, and what the Pope needed was his powerful soul.
"You have to ask her for help." Salin pointed at Nalis, and Nalis woke up. In less than ten days, she had not yet completely evolved into the fifth ability and was still sleepy. However, after listening to Salin's order, Nalis smiled and said, "Nicolas, I will definitely help you with this."
The opportunity to quarrel is here again, the master is very generous.
"Hello." Dinicio's beard shook for a moment, and he felt that Neris made him feel a little uncomfortable, which was the natural reaction when facing terrifying creatures.
"Hello, I'm Neris. From now on, we will be our own people." Neris blinked, calculating in his heart how much benefits he could get from this old man.
"Okay, Aini and the others are in a hurry to see me. Nicholas, come together." Salin put on gloves and walked out of the room with Shika. There is a conference room on the second floor of the temple. Salin met the nobles and had to go to a more spacious place.
There were a lot more people in the conference hall. After this battle, some people were named barons by Salin. These people made contributions in the battle to defend the city, which reduced the losses of Salin's main army a lot. Salin was still very grateful.
When Salin arrived, everyone stood up and saluted, and Aini was no exception. Salin sat down with a smile, looked around everyone, and said, "I will introduce someone to you. This is Nicholas, the Cardinal Archbishop of the Original Holy Church, and now he is his own."
The nobles were furious.
Qin Yin and the Tanggulas Empire have been hostile for thousands of years, which has also caused many magicians to rebel, but there has never been a depravity at the level of the Red-clothed Archbishop. Is Salin too cruel?
This is equivalent to slapping hard on the face of the Lord of Glory, and the entire Holy See will be humiliated by it.
These nobles did not have any favors to the Holy See, and were even willing to go to the battlefield to kill a few Dongulas. The question is, Salin is too much now, and the Holy See will focus all its attention here. Can the newly built Metatlin City withstand such a test?
"It seems that everyone doesn't have much confidence in me." Salin's voice was calm, a little sarcastic and a little sigh.
"Even if you are looking for death, I will go with you." Eni slapped the table and replied with a sigh.
