Chapter 18: : Stupid things that smart people do

"As you wish, juvenile." The Scarecrow must do his best to collect the money.
"Wait, hide my name before talking. Well, use the ‘Owl’ code.
Tang Shidao paid the money to ask for it, and the Scarecrow generally complied with the requirements. When I think of the Scarecrow knowing everything, Tang Shidao can't help but ask: "When everyone says that you are passing messages, you know a lot of things? I am very surprised, sometimes you don't seem to know me."
The Scarecrow sends a message to the Earl of Blood.
When you wait.
It calmed up again and slowly raised his right hand. Cast a spell, pull away a message in its own head, and then smash it invisible: "This spell is called 'memory destruction' and I will perform it once in a while. Memory damage will not make me completely amnesia, only Let my memory break and become messy. So, forgetting someone and forgetting something is random."
Tang Shidao is strange: "Why do you do this?"
The Scarecrow is hard to say: "In your world, smart businessmen will remember the guests' preferences, try to figure out the guests' minds and provide them with better service. But the Master Network is different. If I keep in mind all the Master's purchases and learning. That is equivalent to spying on the privacy of the Masters. Thousands of you are so weak, spying, you can't help me. But how many Masters in the Master Network are not even clear to me, is there a single one that is better than me? I am not sure. I am safe when I break the memory. I don't want to be besieged by the Master of the Master Network one day. Do you understand?"
Listening to this, Tang Shidao understood.
The practice of the Scarecrow is very smart. The most feared thing for a mage is: secret exposure!
Not only the original world, but also the same as the Master Network. It’s like saying that there are countless Masters in the Master. But there is never a Master who exposes his talents. The Scarecrow works every day, and countless numbers are busy. If it keeps on all the movements of the Master, then... it will be the public enemy of all Masters.
No one can be assured of a person who controls the secrets of all wizards.
Even if you are yourself.
If all the spoilers who bought and sold themselves know that they have been to the place they have been to, they know that they have received the task, and they are very uncomfortable with this ‘existence’. It doesn't matter if you know what you are doing. Once it is about life and death, the Scarecrow must know it as an 'enemy'. The Scarecrow doesn't want to be the enemy of all wizards, it can only remove something it shouldn't know.
Breaking your own memories is a parody.
However, this move is very smart.
Tang Shidao believes that the memory destruction of the Scarecrow is targeted, and it is impossible to forget even his job. If it is a computer, it only removes the 'browsing record', it is impossible to destroy its own system.
"The other party agrees to talk secretly." The Scarecrow opens a special passage, and it avoids listening.
quickly.
"Hello, peer, I am the Earl of Blood."
"Hello, I am an owl. Please forgive me, this is my pseudonym, I don't want to reveal my true identity." Tang Shidao said.
"It's normal to use a pseudonym. I don't mind. It seems that you have to sign a contract that I can't trace?"
"This is a must, blood count. Without this premise I will not accept your mission." Tang Shidao explained his request in advance, lest the next nonsense.
"Yes, we will talk about it later. Do you know my mission requirements?"
"Resurrection of you."
"Well, not only is the resurrection, I need to resurrect me in the case of my broken body and smoldering smoke. Can you do it? The general resurrection can't be done, I ask for a spell or reel that only the soul can resurrect. You must ensure that I am dying out. Can also be successfully revived."
"Yes. As long as you don't spy on what method I use."
"Of course, the secret of prying into other wizards is also a kind of vertical enemy behavior. It is a normal move to hide identity and ability in the Master Network. Even old friends who have been dating for tens of thousands of years will not reveal all. Mr. Owl, we need Signing two new treaties. First, I am in a state of slumber after I die, I don't know, I don't know, I don't trace your spellcasting process, including not tracking your identity. As long as the mission is completed, I can also smash it directly. Memories. But I also need protection. In the second treaty, you must sign a mission-style life union. If you violate the contract and I don't resurrect me after I die, you will die."
"No problem." Tang Shidao knows what the other party means. After he died, he gave ‘resurrection’ to another stranger. He did not ask for protection.
There are many things that have a resurrection effect.
For example, your own talent spells, magic scrolls with resurrection spells, alchemy rings or wands with resurrection spells, or even a resurrection armor or a necklace. Resurrection spells can be used multiple times, and items can only be used several times, at least once. Therefore, the items that can be resurrected are very precious, and most of the mages are not willing to use them, because they are gone once.
The blood count is afraid that he will encounter a teammate who is 'half-way back' and naturally asks to sign a life union contract.
Tang Shidao readily agrees, because his talent spell is a reincarnation spell that can be reincarnate and can be used indefinitely. All you need to do is: confidentiality! As long as the other party doesn't know what method to use, everything doesn't matter.
The premise was negotiated and the two negotiated for a while.
quickly.
Tang Shidao and the blood count signed a contract to become an owl to the world of blood count.
After entering.
Tang Shidao discovered that this is a world of interstellar civilization, and that technology does not know how many times more than the emperor. Blood Count, a 'vampire aristocrat' dressed up, prompts the identity: "Hello, Mr. Owl, thank you very much for your help. If you want to go out, please be careful, don't make any trouble. The world has vampires, but There is no mage."
Tang Shidao nodded: "Mr. Blood Count, please rest assured, I will not affect your world. I am very curious, this is a technological society, why are there vampires?"
The Earl of Blood showed his finger: "Because of this alchemy ring, it is called a vampire turned into a ring. This kind of thing has more than 300 pieces in the world, which I exchanged from the Master. I have more than 300 in this world. A vampire, their greatest power and the most wealthy person."

Do you need them to provide you with a comfortable life?

"Almost. I don't want to change the world, but I want to enjoy the comfort of life, so create a group of 'likes' to meet the demand." Blood Earl does not deny.
"Don't you worry about revealing the secret of the Master Network?"
"No. These rings are from the remains of the ancient times. They are antiquities. Although the world is technologically advanced, it is impossible to analyze the 'alchemy items'. I put the rings in ancient ruins, they must be antiquities when they are unearthed. Scientists are also skeptical about what happened in ancient times." Blood Earl is not worried about using alchemy items because technology cannot crack magic.
As long as it is properly placed, other things will allow scientists to make up their own brains.
"Why do you need to die?" Tang Shidao was strange.
"Because I live longer than other vampires." The Earl of Blood laughed and said: "These rings can make the holder strong and survive for hundreds of years or even thousands of years. Unfortunately, the soul will survive for a long time. Inevitably. Only the Master can practice strengthening the soul, mortals are impossible. I lived for too long, they began to doubt my abnormality. If it was not the identity of the first generation of vampire discoverers, they had already taken me."
"discoverer?"
"Yes, I am now a scholar. The first person to find a vampire ring is also the university student with the highest honor of the recent generation. Now they have not directly started, but some vampire members feel that death is coming, and they will not care. So much. Here is my secret residence, there are some experiences on my bookshelf. You can look at the history of this planet first, and you can find my reasons." Blood Earl has a teammate and immediately starts his own plan.
Tang Shidao did not ask much.
In order to hide themselves, the Master is doing everything he can. Lei Shi hides in the ground and does not touch outsiders. The wolf sorcerer turns himself into a warrior who saves the princess. It is not surprising that the Earl of Blood wants to 'dead' once, because there is no more complete disappearance than death.
Looking through the history books of the world, Tang Shidao found some interesting things.
First of all.
In the steam age this world is very chaotic, wars and deaths are everywhere. During this period, as everyone prayed, a great hero appeared. He rises as an orphan, quickly gathers his team, gradually gains power, and then reunifies one country and eventually dominates the world. The big one is trying to develop technology, and it is most focused on biology. In the development of the whole world and the people, the great ones finally gave birth to the biological technology of maintaining the body during the 80th birthday, and let him return to youth.
It is praiseworthy.
The first-time person responded to the first time after returning to youth: to extend this technology to all mankind, and to take out half of his property and choose the lucky one to realize the dream of youth.
No matter how you look at it, the big ones are the greatest leaders in the history of the world, no one.
but.
With the development of science and technology, there are more and more biotechnologies that extend life expectancy. People who have entered the interstellar civilization have found a strange thing: their supreme leader has lived for more than a thousand years. At this time, the second generation of loyal followers who followed him were also nearing death.
In science and technology.
Gene agents, controllable viruses, or direct biochemical bodies, there are countless techniques in the interstellar civilization to keep the body old.
However, no one can avoid the aging of the soul.
In the undercurrent, the great leader died unexpectedly in an experiment and flew away. Since then all the plots and speculations against the great leaders have vanished and are no longer mentioned by anyone.
I saw the Tang Shidao smile here.
Read the history book again.
After the great leader, another pope of the 'life sect' appeared. He succeeded in creating life sects in a few years and guided people to practice some of the secrets of the ancient times to achieve the effect of extending life. Although this is an interstellar civilization, extending life expectancy is still an important issue. It didn't take long for the life sects and secret laws to become mainstream, and until now the life sects still stand tall.
On the occasion of the suspicion of the Pope who had survived for more than 800 years, the Pope also smoldered and died in a practice.
There is only one pile of residual bone ash.
Since then, all doubts have disappeared. The sect of life also offered the ‘residue of the remaining bones’ as a sacred object.
Tang Shidao laughed again.
He recalled the words of the Leprechaun: he could not satisfy all his wife's wishes, and he wanted to satisfy everyone. This is too naive. The blood count is not entirely for others. He unified the world and gave everyone a stable home. Why continue to do things? Very simple. He needs to have his own life. He didn't want to hide in a cave as a mouse, and naturally walked the route of 'greatly hidden in the city'.
Every thousand or so years, pretending that ordinary people pretend not to go down, he will ‘death’ once.
Big one.
Pope.
The first university student to find a vampire ring.
These identities can make him live comfortably and not be suspected. In addition to knowing the mage of the Master Network, how can the people think of their emperors, the pope and the university are the same person. Even if someone doubts, hehe, long ago, who can live longer than the Earl of Blood.
Change to your own side, can you suspect that Xia Huang turned to a modern person?
The Earl of Blood seems to have been doing stupid things.
However, his intelligence is beyond doubt.
