Chapter 609 Death No. 1! (Two in One)
Soon, Gervis came to the wooden cabinet where the crystal container was placed the day before.
When he looked into the crystal container, he found that the light green liquid essence of the material originally used to soak the dark attribute monster crystal had become completely transparent.
"This was all absorbed by this dark attribute magic beast crystal, right?"
"It's really rare. I've never heard of a magic crystal being able to absorb the essence of magic potion plants and other materials before."
Gervis muttered a few words, then took out the Warcraft crystal from the crystal container, and then went directly to the training room!
After sitting down in the training room, Gervis opened the system panel without thinking, and then exchanged it for a green kiwi fruit.
After the last lesson of mental exhaustion, Gervis has learned a lesson and is now taking precautions in advance to be prepared for any eventuality.
Especially today I have to perform a mental power stripping and cutting operation. It would be a tragedy if I accidentally turned into an idiot.
After exchanging the green kiwi fruit, Gervis placed the black Warcraft crystal in front of him, then closed his eyes and began to concentrate and mobilize his mental power.
According to the method recorded by Wizard Neham, before cutting the mental power, it is best to first integrate the information you want to convey into that section of mental power.
And this piece of information will become the core of the Heart of the Undead. In the future, the dark creatures that possess the Heart of the Undead will act according to this principle when they do not receive effective commands.
Of course, Gervis doesn't have to import the information, the Heart of the Undead will still be valid, and the dark creature that possesses the Heart of the Undead will still be extremely loyal to him and will never betray him.
However, the thinking logic of the dark creatures will have to be carried out according to the acquired planning and learning.
Although Gervis didn't quite understand how big of a difference there would be between the two after doing this, he was still prepared to give it a try.
For example, injecting simple information such as your name into the heart of the dead.
Soon, Gervis completed the task of entering information into his mental power.
The information he entered was very simple, which was that when they saw him, they should kneel on one knee and shout "My King!"
The other is the direction that Gervis hopes for the development of his summoned war servant, which is that he hopes it will become stronger and stronger and clear all enemies for Gervis.
After making sure there was nothing else missing, Gervis began the next most important step.
Cutting mental power may sound easy, but it is extremely troublesome to actually do it.
Because mental power is invisible and intangible, it only exists in Gervis's own mind and senses, and naturally cannot be cut with any knife.
The real way to separate mental power is to tear it apart, just like tearing a strip of cloth or paper, pulling it to both ends in different directions, and finally splitting it into two.
And that is exactly what Gervis has to do now. He needs to do two things at once, and then control his mental power to carefully pull it in different directions, peeling it out of his mind.
"here we go!"
Gervis took a deep breath, and then began to multitask, controlling a few dozen percent of his mental power to stretch in the opposite direction of the rest of his mental power.
"hiss!"
And the moment Gervis really started pulling, he gasped. It felt like his head with the helmet on it was hit by a sledgehammer.
If he had not been mentally prepared, he would probably have lay down at that moment.
“Come again!”
Enduring the pain in his head, Gervis continued to exert force. As he continued to tear, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Gervis's mental power has become much stronger than that of ordinary people because of taking the green kiwi fruit, but this also makes it more difficult and painful for him to divide his mental power than for others.
However, for the heart of the dead, Gervis still gritted his teeth and persisted.
As he slowly controlled his mental power and pulled carefully, a small gap finally appeared in his mental power.
Seeing this, Gervis did not dare to let down his guard, but became more cautious.
Pulling mental power is like pulling paper. If you don't use enough strength, it will be useless.
If you use too much force, it may tear the paper, making the direction and size of the tear uncontrollable, which may cause the entire paper to be scrapped.
This is exactly the case with Gervis right now. If he pulls too hard, the direction of the tear may change and extend directly to Gervis's mental power. This is the danger of cutting mental power.
If the paper is torn, you can replace it with another one, but if your mental strength is damaged, you will really become an idiot and can only make babble.
So in order to avoid becoming like that, even if his head hurt so badly, Gervis only dared to do it gently.
As time passed, the original small gap turned into a big gap, and because of Gervis's carefulness, the fracture zone of mental power was also very complete.
“Almost there! Almost there!”
Although his head felt like it had been stepped on by a divine beast, Gervis was extremely excited. As long as he could tear off this last bit of adhesion, the heart of the undead would be safe.
Wave!
Finally, with Gervis's unremitting efforts, he seemed to hear a crisp breaking sound in his mind, and he finally succeeded in peeling off a small piece from his mental power.
"Phew! Finally succeeded!"
Gervis breathed a sigh of relief. The moment the peeling was successful, the pain in his head immediately subsided.
Then, Gervis quickly injected the small piece of mental power he had just peeled off into the Warcraft crystal in front of him.
Strangely enough, when Gervis's mental power touched the dark attribute monster crystal, it was immediately absorbed into it.
"It's done! Haha! I am indeed a genius. I am probably the only genius besides Wizard Nahum who can make the Heart of the Dead!"
Gervis's excited cheers echoed throughout the training room. At this moment, he really felt a great sense of accomplishment.
He was sure that few people in the Holy Continent would dare to do something like cutting and stripping off spiritual power.
"Then, it's time to verify the effect!"
Thinking of this, Gervis quickly used the summoning technique.
Gervis had specially exchanged for green kiwi fruit just in case, but he didn't expect everything to go so smoothly and his mental strength was not depleted at all.
At this moment, his mental strength was only reduced by a few tenths compared to before, but for Gervis, this was not a problem at all. With the kiwi fruit, he could make up for it.
As Gervis finished casting the spell, a dark hole immediately appeared on the ground in front of him, and a skeleton slowly crawled out of the hole.
Since it was an experiment, Gervis would definitely not be willing to use his own skeleton horse Nightmare for testing, after all, skeleton horses are very rare.
But if he took ordinary gray skeleton soldiers, Gervis felt that he was at a disadvantage.
So he decided to give it a try with his only green skull.
A moment later, Gervis' only green skeleton was standing quietly in front of him, the green soul fire in its eyes no longer flickered.
"Come, eat this heart of the dead! It may be your chance, or it may be your death. It all depends on your luck!"
Handing the Heart of the Dead to the Skeleton Soldier, Gervis muttered something to it.
At this time, Gervis was also a little nervous. Now was the time to verify the results he could get after spending so much money and energy.
And now there is his only green skeleton soldier. If he were to kill them all at once, it would be a huge loss for him.
Although the skeleton soldier had no independent consciousness and didn't know what his master was so nervous about, after receiving Gervis's order, it still stretched out its slightly green hand bones and took the heart of the undead handed to it by Gervis.
After taking the Heart of the Undead, the green skeleton did not delay and directly stuffed the gray-black Warcraft crystal into its mouth.
Then, Gervis stared at the green skeleton soldiers intently, waiting for the result.
The green skeleton did not chew the Warcraft crystal after putting it into its mouth, and the Warcraft crystal did not fall out of its empty jaw. Instead, it was wrapped by the green soul fire in its head the moment it entered its mouth.
Just as the green soul fire enveloped the heart of the undead, changes began to occur.
After just two or three seconds, the soul fire in the green skull began to change.
The soul fire that was originally light green slowly turned gray-black, and the gray-black color became thicker and thicker as time went by, slowly dyeing the soul fire of the green skeleton soldier black.
At this time, the green skeleton soldier also moved. It had been motionless, but without Gervis's command, it raised its bony arms to cover its head, as if there was endless pain in its head.
Click, click!
Perhaps the pain was really extreme, the upper and lower teeth of the green skeleton kept colliding, making a clicking sound.
"Could this Heart of the Dead be fake? Wizard Nahum shouldn't be so boring!"
When Gervis saw this, he couldn't help but doubt in his heart whether the formula of the Heart of the Dead was fake.
However, Gervis's thought did not last long, because just a few seconds later, the soul fire in the green skeleton soldier's head changed again.
The original gray-black color in the soul fire began to slowly dissipate, as if it was burned out by the green soul fire.
At this time, the green skeleton stopped holding its head, and the trembling of its mouth disappeared without a trace.
Wave!
Suddenly, the soul fire inside the green skull made a wave sound, and then as if it was poured with gasoline in an instant, the flames became stronger.
Gervis only felt a sudden flash before his eyes, and he couldn't look straight because of the bright fire, but this state only lasted for a moment, and he recovered after a moment.
And when Gervis looked at the green skeleton again, the green skeleton's soul fire had returned to normal, as if it was just an illusion before.
"Hmm, that's not right. The green skeleton's soul fire seems to be a bit stronger than before!"
However, Gervis still noticed something from the green skeleton, because the green skeleton's soul fire was obviously a bit stronger than before.
Just as Gervis was wondering why the green skeleton soldier's soul fire was stronger than before, he suddenly saw the skeleton soldier in front of him move again.
The green skeleton soldier half-knelt down in front of Gervis.
The green skeleton soldier then lowered his head, held the hilt of the sword at his waist with his left hand, bent his right arm and pounded his fist on his chest, which was actually a gesture of allegiance to Gervis.
“Crack! Crack!”
"Damn, it really worked!"
When he saw the series of actions of the green skeleton soldiers, Gervis knew that the Heart of the Undead he had configured was successful.
Because this was the information he had previously injected into his mental power, how to salute and greet himself.
If this skeleton soldier was able to speak, then the crackling sound should mean "meeting my king".
"Get up!"
Gervis couldn't stop showing excitement on his face, and he gave an order to the green skeleton soldier.
The next moment, the half-kneeling green skeleton soldier first bent slightly and saluted, then stood up.
Moreover, the green skeleton soldier now stands in front of Gervis in a different posture than before. It actually knows to bow its head slightly to show respect for Gervis.
"Very good! Since you have your own consciousness, I will give you a code name!"
"You'll be called Number One! Number One of my Death Army! Death Number One! Okay, it's settled!"
Gervis didn't think too much about it. He was going to summon more skeleton soldiers in the future, so he just used code names instead of giving them names. This would also make it easier for him to command in the future.
“Crack! Crack!”
The skeleton soldiers with independent consciousness naturally know how to be grateful, so when Gervis gave it a name, No. 1 responded immediately!
"Okay! In that case, you should go back first! If possible, you'd better practice fighting in the dark world, but remember to protect yourself!"
Gervis looked at Death No. 1 again for a moment before sending it back to the dark world!
And he gave it a few more instructions before sending it back.
Although the Heart of the Dead gave No. 1 independent consciousness and a little wisdom.
However, wisdom is not something that can be acquired overnight. It also requires one to accumulate it through learning.
Therefore, Gervis hopes that No. 1 can continue to learn and accumulate in the dark world, so that when he encounters a battle in the future, he will be able to adapt to the situation like the skeleton wizard they met at the beginning.
After confirming that the configuration method of the Heart of the Dead was real and effective, Gervis immediately began to take out another set of materials for the Heart of the Dead from the space ring.
He planned to make further efforts and continue to make a heart of the dead and use it on his own nightmare. Then the nightmare would become a real nightmare.
