Chapter 14 Trump Card
There is a saying among the people of the Gloria Empire.
"A starving ground rhinoceros is bigger than the strongest wild horse—"
Although the Olivendi family was almost destroyed, the final foundation left behind was still enough to support little Anvis to do many things.
It was a spherical crystal, about the size of an apple, with the two ends slightly flattened.
Similar to the shape of the Earth model that Avis had seen before.
It has very strange properties. Its appearance is translucent, its color is always changing, and its core part is glowing alternately.
Magic spectrum detection shows that it does not belong to any known substance.
Its name is a single Gumanic syllable: [yīn]
Every thousand years, the brilliance of the crystal ball will reach its peak. At this time, it will become an unparalleled medium for making wishes.
There is no need for any ceremony to use it, and there are no restrictions on its use. Even if an ordinary person directly holds it and speaks out a wish, it can be realized directly.
The most important thing is that through the wish-making technique activated by [yīn], the degree to which the wish is distorted is almost negligible!
For example, suppose a spellcaster makes a wish to increase his level.
Ordinary wishing spells have an 80% chance of failure, and the other 20% chance of a distorted wish being fulfilled.
The results are usually disastrous; the wish may connect him to some massive energy source, such as the magical pool in a wizard's tower.
At this point, the fate of the caster is obvious.
But if this wishing spell is activated through [yin], then the energy in the crystal ball will prompt him to transform in an instant and provide all the power consumed in the process.
Of course, if the wisher is too greedy and wishes to improve several realms at once, but is eventually annihilated by the enormous magic power that he cannot control, then it has nothing to do with [Yīn].
In the family's hands, it was used twice, and detailed records were left each time.
Its first owner was Aldridge, who was a ninth-rank top warlock at the time. After obtaining the [Yīn], he spent a year studying it and roughly determined the nature of the crystal ball.
That was a concentration of wish power that he had never seen before!
Although you can make a wish directly, the method to maximize the use of the power of the crystal ball is still to be guided by the formal wishing ceremony.
Therefore, Aldrich arranged a wish-making ceremony of the highest standard with [yīn] as the core.
His wish is simple: to become a legend.
After the wish was made, the entire ritual array emitted a dazzling light, and an incomparably powerful mysterious force wrapped around him.
Onlookers could clearly feel that the pressure emanating from him, who had been stuck at the ninth level limit for many years, began to increase again, becoming extremely deep and terrifying.
When this power reached its peak, endless light suddenly burst out from Aldridge's body, and the whole person instantly turned into a sun! The next moment, the light disappeared, and the bystanders, the magic circle and the [yin] itself were intact, but Aldridge himself disappeared out of thin air.
No one could sense where he had gone. There was no spatial fluctuation at the spot, and the blood crystal ball left in the family also turned into a strange gray color.
The family members could only vaguely sense that he was still alive through the deepest blood connections.
A thousand years after Aldrich disappeared, the crystal's brilliance is overflowing once again.
This time, the person who used it was Lois, the then head of the Olivendi family. In terms of seniority, he was the grandson of Aldridge.
Considering what happened to Aldridge in the past, he did not directly wish to improve his own or others' realm, but tried to make a wish for Aldridge to return.
However, this wish did not work, and neither the ritual array nor the crystal ball responded.
From the above results, Lois came to two conclusions: First: [yīn] is a rare item that can satisfy the wishes of the legendary level.
Second: [yīn] is not truly omnipotent. At least, bringing Aldridge back is beyond its ability.
Combined with some secret information the family had obtained over the past thousand years, Lois had a vague guess.
He started to make a wish again. This time, his wish was: to make himself the ninth level limit! The crystal emitted the same light as when Aldridge made a wish, and the light was wrapped around Lois like a ribbon.
When his strength reached the ninth level, the light dissipated again.
Lois struggles to control his sudden surge of power - his wish comes true, and he doesn't disappear.
Half a month later, Lois, who had completely mastered his own power, left behind the rules for using [Yīn]:
1. Do not wish for a rank that is too high for your own ability
2. Do not make wishes higher than the legendary level . 3. Refer to Boltzmann's "Rules of Wishing"
………
In fact, the reason why the family left [Yīn] to little Anvis was that they hoped that when he reached the ninth level, he could use the wishing technique to increase his strength to the ninth level limit, and thus lead the family to a comeback.
During the time when he was hiding his identity, the glory of [yin] finally refilled.
He originally intended to improve his strength as planned, but the news of Fiona's reappearance made him change his original decision.
Not to mention that it is impossible to reach the ninth level in a short period of time. Even if one reaches the limit of the ninth level, it will not help the current situation.
The enemy has already proved that they are not something that can be contended with by one or two ninth-level extreme warriors.
Rather than using it yourself, it is better to use [yīn] in more critical places.
After weighing the pros and cons, he made a crazy decision: to use vague wishes
In the book "The Rules of Wishing" written by the ninth-level mysterious wizard [Star Wish] Boltzmann Fenielz, vague wishes are ranked as the number one wrong way to make a wish.
More than 90% of accidents involving wishing techniques are caused by the practitioner not describing the wish clearly enough.
But Boltzmann also admitted that the more precise the wish, the more energy it requires and the higher the probability of failure.
Making a precise wish requires more energy to maintain this precision.
The cost of making a wish doubles with each specific restriction you add.
Little Anvis had studied the book carefully and knew well the disadvantages of making vague wishes.
But he was unable to change the current situation, and in despair and despair, he placed all his hopes on the art of making wishes and on that glimmer of fate.
His last wish was simple: to restore the glory of the Olivendi family.
A textbook wrong way to make a wish, but also a way to maximize the power of the wishing technique.
He succeeded, but at the cost of everything he had, including his soul...
The wishing spell produced a truly miraculous effect. A soul from a distant world transcended time and space and landed at the critical point before the fall of the Olivendi family. It inherited all the memories of little Anvis in his previous life.
As an important part of this miracle, Anvis, who was inexplicably pulled here, now has to be extremely alert and think carefully about how to break the impasse.
Otherwise, the fate of little Anvis in his previous life would be the outcome he was destined to face.
