On the peaks of the Azoreta Mountains, the snow remains all year round, reflecting the bright sunshine, which is dazzling. The howling mountain wind seems to never stop, carrying ice crystals and snow particles flying in the air, like a long river of ice and snow, running through the north and south.

The majestic Assyrian temple is like an unshakable reef, standing in the middle of a mighty river composed of strong winds, ice crystals, and snow particles, silently enduring the violent impact of the blizzard but remaining motionless.

On the top platform of the temple, the four-armed Ant-Man has laid out a psychic barrier to block the strong storm outside, but other Ant-Man can freely enter and exit without any hindrance.

Two white-armored ant-men walked upright, each holding a large iron plate with their four arms, on which were placed unknown pieces of barbecue, various wild fruits, and stone jars filled with lotion. They walked into the spirit of the Ant-Man Queen.

He was able to use the barrier, put the big iron plate on the stone floor, and took away the food that was delivered last time.

Queen Ant-Man used her psychic power to ingest a stone jar from the air, opened her beautiful mouth, and drank most of the thick lotion inside in one breath.

He put down the stone jar that looked like a round tripod, looked up at Victor, and saw that the other person had no intention of taking any food, so he persuaded with a smile: "Your Highness, Randall, really don't want to try our ant paste? This is...

The nutrient solution secreted by the male ants is exclusively for the consumption of the queen. According to the standards of the Alchemy Empire, it can be classified as a second category of extraordinary food. Its edible effect is second only to the source blood spring, and its flavor is unique."

The diet of ordinary worker ants is very wide, including wood, insects, weeds, carrion... poisonous and non-toxic, as long as it is not poisonous to death, they will eat anything. These messy foods are extracted through the special digestive system of worker ants, and rich

Nutrient-containing lotion is supplied to larvae, some soldier ants, guard ants, and male ants that specialize in guarding the queen.

Queen Ant-Man said that after the male ants ingest the emulsion extracted by the worker ants, they can secrete a higher-grade nutrient solution and feed it to the queen. This nutrient solution is called ant pulp.

Ant paste contains very few impurities. It is not only rich in nutrients, but also has various incredible magical effects. Although it is not like the Assyrian Fountain of Youth, which can regenerate broken limbs and rejuvenate people, long-term drinking of ant paste can extend lifespan and significantly slow down aging.

speed.

Of course, Victor himself was not interested in the magical effects of ant paste, and it was produced from the buttocks of male ants. For this reason, His Highness Randall stayed away from ant paste.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I'm not interested."

"What about these barbecues? Don't His Highness Randall want to taste the delicacies I made using the cooking methods of the Alchemy Empire?"

"...I'm not hungry, nor thirsty. Your Majesty, please do so."

"What a pity... I actually don't need to eat, but this body needs food and water. Your Highness Randall, does it really matter if you don't eat or drink for thirty-five days?"

The Randall expedition marched continuously for thirty-five days, day and night, covering more than 9,000 kilometers through mountains and rivers. Victor was trapped in the Azores Temple and did not have water or food for thirty-five days.

The Ant-Man Queen had no intention of starving Her Royal Highness Randall to death. She provided food and water in a wide variety of ways. Even though the Ants never cooked cooked food, under the Ant-Man Queen's instructions, they still prepared a barbecue feast for Victor.

.The barbecue skills of the advanced ants are quite acceptable. That’s because they prepared 100 portions of barbecue according to the Queen Ant-Man’s recipe, and only selected the best one to serve to Victor.

The first human delicacy made by the advanced ants in history was ruthlessly rejected by His Highness Randall.

Victor is fasting these days to prevent Queen Ant-Man from adding strange things to food and water. Although his current physique can ignore toxins below the legendary level, he also carries a gift from Sylvia to him.

Manticore bone beads. However, the Ant-Man Queen actually remembered the recipes from more than 20,000 years ago, which really shocked Victor. The Archmage of the Alchemy Empire can remember the recipes, so he must be more familiar with the formulas of ancient medicines.

It’s no stranger. Sometimes, non-poisonous medicines are more difficult to deal with than highly poisonous ones. Victor doesn’t want to try the Ant-Man Queen’s method of preparing medicines himself.

On the other hand, by not eating or drinking, Victor was also making final preparations for their showdown.

Due to fasting and water deprivation for a long time, Victor only relied on absorbing free elements from the outside world to maintain his life. Astonishing changes occurred in Victor's body and mind both inside and outside. Except for the most commonly absorbed water elements and the light of the silver moon, he experienced the first

Treat the light of the sun as a fire element that can be absorbed, and continuously incorporate it into the body to continuously nourish the blood and soul.

Due to the dormant human bloodline of the twin talent trees, the bloodline of the high elves has become extremely active. In fact, it has surpassed the moon elves and is infinitely close to the life form of the sun elves.

In the past, Victor's figure was as handsome as a god, but there was always a trace of humanity. Now, his black hair has turned into sunshine-like gold, and his pair of dark gold eyes have turned into bright gold pupils.

It left streaks of golden light in the air, and the whole body exuded an extraordinary aura, like the incarnation of the sun god descending here.

Even a blind man can clearly feel the terrifying power contained in Victor's body. How could Queen Ant-Man not know that His Highness Randall is preparing to break through with his own strength?

Of course, this is actually normal. The Ant-Man army surrounded the lonely peak where the Temple of Azorta is located like an iron barrel. If the demigods from the human country did not respond, the Ant-Man Queen would feel strange. Ant-Man

Although the Queen is not worried that His Highness Randall can escape from her encirclement, she still wants to make a final effort to persuade the other party to adopt a cooperative attitude.

"Your Highness, we should all be grateful to Andrew."

The Ant-Man Queen said calmly: "He is an important member of the School of Life, specializing in the study of the eternal soul fire and the immortal will. Simply put, he does not pursue magical power, but only pursues the essential mysteries of life and soul. We are used to treating

Great mages like Andrew are called research mages. Most of their spell slots are not used in combat, so their combat ability is very poor. Research mages are particularly respected because their research topics are often divorced from reality, contrary to common sense, and full of impossibilities.

Not sure. But even if their research ends in failure, the research process often brings new magical knowledge to the mages."

"...The Andrew I know is also a great mage who studies. He tries to integrate the characteristics of the elementalist and the mage... You must know that the elementalist is born with the ability to communicate with the origin of the world, while the mage needs to study for a long time.

, training, meditating, and reorganizing core spell models can give you a chance to peek into the origin of the world, but that is only looking at the scenery inside through a window, and it is absolutely impossible to directly communicate with the sea of ​​elements with your soul like an elementalist."

"The elementalist mobilizes the power of the elemental sea, which is rough, slow, and extremely inefficient in form, but it is stable enough and is not restricted by model barriers. The situation of mages is the opposite. Our use of the elemental sea is more efficient than that of the elementalist.

However, due to the limitations of the spell model, if there is a problem with the spell model, it will be very dangerous. Therefore, the archmage must be extremely cautious when casting spells above level 7, and even mobilize multiple mage followers to hold spell rituals as a buffer. The elementalist can easily

The archmage has to spend longer time preparing for the original elements that can be used. The shortcomings of the elementalists are also obvious. They do not have the ability to cast spells. They need to use runes to embody the power of the elemental sea in a certain place.

Conceptually, such as enchanting items... By the middle of the Alchemy Empire, the embodiment of elemental runes was usually elemental crystal."

"Andrew believes that if the characteristics of the elementalist and the mage are integrated, the development of magic and alchemy can enter a new level, and the problem of the inheritance of the mage can also be solved... His idea is of course contrary to common sense.

However, Andrew insisted that this was theoretically feasible. He drew on the great goblin’s heritage tree heart and the alchemist’s memory crystal to propose the concept of memory bubbles.”

"Memory bubble?" Victor became interested and asked, "Your Majesty, can you tell me more specifically?"

"The royal fairies place their memories in the heart of the ancient tree. In fact, there is another kind of memory rooted deep in the bloodline... All mythical creatures are the carriers of this ancient bloodline memory. The key to the memory bubble

It is to imitate the method of royal fairies to extract their own memories, and then store the memory content in a specific bloodline. Archmage Andrew plans to implant the memory bubble deep in the bloodline of a female elementalist, which contains spell knowledge and a core spell model.

In this way, it is possible for a descendant of Archmage Andrew and the female Elementalist to combine the characteristics of the mage and the Elementalist. Of course, Andrew's research experiment was not successful and hit a dead end. However, he has solved the problem.

On the subject of memory bubbles, he also taught me the method of constructing memory bubbles. Otherwise, how could I remember such distant things, and how could His Highness Randall learn from me the secrets of history more than 20,000 years ago?"

Hearing this, Victor's mood suddenly brightened. From an individual perspective, Archmage Andrew did not obtain eternal life at all. He just packaged his own memories and passed them on through blood inheritance, infecting the souls of future generations.

Will side, help them get Andrew's spells and experience inheritance.

In short, Archmage Andrew of the Alchemy Empire is still following the path of ancient behemoths spreading their bloodlines, and Victor’s secret theory of soul bloodline is not wrong!

However, the method adopted by Master Andrew will bring about two problems.

Victor couldn't help frowning and asked: "Andrew's experiment on knights failed, and little mages appeared randomly among ordinary people, and their numbers were rare. How did Archmage Andrew pass on his memory bubble? Can he give birth to a kingdom's population?"

Also, how to solve the time sequence of opening the memory bubble? If there is a problem with the time sequence, the smallest consequences will cause people's memory confusion and turn the underage mage into a madman. Adult mages may be able to resist memory confusion.

But they would never mistake themselves for Andrew."

Ant-Man Queen replied: "The second Master Andrew I saw may be his descendant, maybe not... That Andrew did not explain this matter to me at the time, and I was not interested in it... As an ant

The Human Queen cannot inherit bloodline. She only needs to master the method of generating memory bubbles. However, it is nothing new for mages of the Alchemy Empire to fuse different bloodlines or adjust their own bloodlines. In fact, most mages will try to adjust.

My own bloodline, thereby gaining a longer life. I guess that the second Master Andrew had his bloodline adjusted by Andrew's followers when he was young when he first awakened his talent as a mage, and took the opportunity to do something. He obtained the most complete Master of Andrew

Memory can almost be regarded as the puppet incarnation of Archmage Andrew."

Victor's heart moved, and he tried to ask: "The sacred objects enshrined by Arreat barbarians and mountain dwarves...is the blood collection and transformation device related to Archmage Andrew?"

"I don't know." Queen Ant-Man shook her head and said: "That magic circle device is very advanced. I don't think Archmage Andrew needs to use it. He can also arrange his own memory bubble... Archmage Andrew in the era of the Chosen Ones

He invented the blood sacrifice ritual and allowed the descendants of the mage to gain spellcasting talents through blood inheritance. I have enough reasons to believe that he and Andrew of the Supreme Council are the same 'person'... Of course, he can also be said to be Andrew.

For the mage's successor, the inheritance method is bloodline adjustment plus memory bubbles."

Victor nodded silently, he basically agreed with Ant-Man Queen's point of view.

Queen Ant-Man paused and asked meaningfully: "As for the timing of unfolding the memory bubble you mentioned...don't you have the answer yourself? Or is Bertina interpreting the alchemist's memory crystal for you?"

Victor had a sudden heart attack. He had encountered several life and death crises, and the most dangerous experience was interpreting the memory crystal of an ancient alchemist. A large amount of information poured into his mind at the same time, almost killing him. Even though

Later, based on the secret method of Portanos, he specifically solved the problem of interpreting memory crystals and came up with a secret method of inverting and exchanging subconscious and superficial consciousness. However, he was still not 100% sure that he could withstand the synchronization and exchange of large amounts of information.

A disorderly influx.

Archmage Andrew's method of unfolding the memory bubble has valuable reference value for Victor.

The Ant-Man Queen clearly saw through Victor's little thoughts. She shook her head and said, "You are neither a mage nor a spirit. Even if I tell you the correct way to expand the memory bubble, you won't be able to learn it."

Victor raised his head, looked directly into Queen Ant-Man's eyes, and said with deep eyes: "In that case, why don't you tell me."

Queen Ant-Man nodded indifferently and said: "Master Andrew didn't tell me the specific method he used to expand the memory bubble. This is actually a small problem. I can come up with several solutions, such as using magic potions to expand the memory bubble at different levels.

Adjust your own bloodline. Every time you successfully adjust your bloodline and use a special meditation method, you can awaken a memory bubble... You don't need to understand the specific setting plan, because you will definitely not learn it anyway."

Victor didn't care at all about the contempt from Queen Ant-Man. He said thoughtfully: "It is difficult to set up a condition to stimulate memory... but it is really a great idea."

The Ant-Man Queen could not imagine that the mind master actually had similar abilities. She vaguely felt that His Highness Randall had received a very valuable inspiration, so she took a deep look at him and then said: "Master Andrew

The method of setting up a memory bubble was taught to me. This actually has a prerequisite, which is not to forget my own name. That is the starting point of the will of the soul. If I forget my name, I will gradually lose myself under the erosion of time. So.

, this is the second reason why I believe that Andrew in the two eras is the same 'person'... They are both called 'Andrew', and I can never forget the name 'Angelina'."

Victor was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "The mage named 'Andrew'? This is a clue... If I can meet him in the future, I will also ask him for the secrets of the Alchemy Empire. However, I am not sure that he awakens

Is the memory bubble complete enough?"

Queen Ant-Man smiled and said: "This is exactly why he released me from the cage... As a spirit, I am more qualified than him to keep the achievements accumulated by the School of Life. Especially in the Supreme Council, the Mage Academy,

When the entire Alchemist Academy is in trouble, I am the only hope to restore the alchemical civilization."
