Chapter 938: Deed of Resurrection, Seeing Death as Home

South shore of Lake Mecht.
A young woman with a nice face and a tall stature is looking at the Mecht Lake in the north, which is shrouded in a green glow.
The rustling north wind constantly blew Jenna's bright golden fluffy long hair behind her, even though the wind was mixed with the strong fishy smell of murlocs, she was not at all moved.
Suddenly, a vigorous figure rushed out of the green light wrapped in a thin cloud of mist. Jenna, who was originally standing on the shore like a statue, melted instantly after seeing the figure, giving a hint of freshness. breath.
But she did not move either, only after Xia Duo fell from mid-air, she took the initiative to speak: "Lord Xia Duo, how is the situation inside? What about Master Byron?"
Originally, Xia Duo wanted to ask President Jenna how long it had been outside, but Jenna asked first, and he didn't mind answering first:
"The ground is full of murlocs, and it feels like it's filled with an entire sea! Master Byron may have something else in it—"
Before Xia Duo finished speaking, a familiar figure fell by his side, and it was Master Byron who had just left the trap.
"President Jenna, how long have I been in?" Perhaps it was the commonality of the caster, Master Byron also thought of the question of time when he came out.
"Master, you and Lord Xia Duo went in for about half a moment, Lord Xia Duo came out only two sentences earlier than you!"
Jenna's answer was succinct and clear. Master Byron nodded slightly, and then said to Chateau: "Lord Chateau, I will cast a spell to destroy the locks. For safety, you should go back to Savile Town first, and just inform the others. , Don’t panic if you see any vision in a while!"
"Yes!"
Xia Duo bowed and was about to leave, but suddenly looked at President Jenna, and President Jenna just nodded slightly, even with a slight smile, but he did not move at all.
This made Xia Duo a little embarrassed. He originally wanted to be polite and invite President Jenna to leave with him. After all, Master Byron said everything, just to be safe.
But the other party's reaction is obviously not ready to leave, and Master Byron did not object to it. Xia Duo now understands that to be recognized by the Great Arcanist, this President Jenna is really not easy!
So Xia Duo had to leave alone.
...
And just after Xia Duo left, Jenna suddenly said, "Really a funny little guy!"
"Also a potential little guy!"
Byron responded with a smile, then narrowed his smile, and asked Jenna: "Is Seventon contacted? What did High Priest Morton say?"
"I just contacted. High Priest Morton has agreed, but he wants the Death Stone in your collection!"
"What Death Stone, isn't it just a better quality Smoky Crystal, he wants me to give it to him." Byron said nonchalantly.
But when he changed the conversation, he said, "But—
The murlocs are not my personal affair, but a public affair that will have a profound impact on Netheril. The Sevinton Council will pay him for this shot. As for the so-called Death Stone, if he wants it, Take the Deed of Resurrection for it! "
The Death Stone or Smoky Crystal, for the orthodox color-resistant mage, is at best a special gem with abundant energy.
But also because it is full of negative energy, only a few casters who study negative energy need it, but for the death priests who admire the idea of ​​"putting death to death", sacrificing such gems can gain divine grace.
And this is exactly the origin of the name [Death Stone].
As for the [Holy Deed of Resurrection], it is the true means of resurrecting the dead and the ultimate power of the priest of death.
Of course, the resurrection of the deceased largely violates the concept of "attributing death to death", and therefore requires a lot of divine grace.
As for whether the divine grace obtained by offering the Death Stone can make up for the consumption of the [Holy Deed of Resurrection], only the death priest who has mastered the resurrection magic can know.
Outsiders, even dead priests who have not mastered the magic of resurrection, it is difficult to figure out the doorway here by imagination alone, which is why Byron opened his mouth and wanted the [Holy Deed of Resurrection].
Do not rule out the meaning of curiosity and temptation.
Hearing Byron's request, Jenna couldn't help shaking her head, "Master, the High Priest of Morton will not agree to such a deal."
"If you don't agree, then forget it, he doesn't want it, not I don't!"
But in the end, Byron seemed to have thought of something, his expression became a little lonely, waved his hand, pretending to say casually:
"Forget it, don't care about him, look at the handling of the murlocs, if I am satisfied, then there is no harm in giving him a broken stone!"
This time, Jenna didn't answer, but looked at Byron blankly, with a little sentimental expression in her eyes.
"Okay, don't look at me with that look. It makes me feel like I'm dying tomorrow. Under Teacher Congenio, how could I die so easily, and wait for my old friend to study the longevity technique. Come out, maybe I will live longer than you!"
Master Byron’s joking remarks made Jenna laugh out loud. She thought of the master Congenio who is often referred to privately as "Old Immortal"~EbookFREE.me~ that is now close to five. A hundred years old, from his rise to the present, I don't know how many younger generations have died. Even if he is about to step down from the position of president of the Austrian Law Federation, no one has ever doubted that his life is about to end.
As for the longevity technique that Iolum is studying, it is said that it has been highly praised by Master Congenio himself and asked Iolum to take over as the president of the Austrian Law Federation. Whether there are considerations in this regard, Jenna does not know. Up.
However, Jenna knew that Master Byron, who had no name as a teacher and apprentice with her, had the truth of a teacher and apprentice, and his life was indeed about to end, although this end was still a long time for ordinary people. years.
But for a powerful spellcaster, the visible end of life, no matter how far away from the present, is extremely cruel.
Jenna could hardly imagine this feeling of watching her head toward death day by day, and because of this, she especially respected Master Byron who could regard death as a homecoming.
...
Returning to the topic, Byron continued to ask: "When will the High Priest Morton begin to act?"
"I don't know this, but Xia knows the situation here and should arrange it as soon as possible."
"I understand, let's destroy the mystery here first."
After that, Byron couldn't help but complain, "This elven, he doesn't do good things every time! I can finally understand why Budigaal hates elves so much!"
"I can understand it too!"
Jenna responded, and then under the command of Byron, he performed coordinated resonance casting.
