After Ash finished introducing the effects of the Shining Tough Tail, Vichy showed a very subtle expression.
"Weren't you with me the whole time?" Wei Xi pondered, "When did you secretly cut off the white bull's tail? Wait, you were separated from me for a while, could this be..."
"This is not Nia's tail!" As soon as Ash saw Vichy's expression, he knew what she was thinking and said unhappily, "Don't think too much. The origin of this thing is the same as your ruby chain, so do you understand?"
In the second Angel Hunt, the only time Ash and Vichy were separated was when they were trapped in the ruins. Ash suddenly took out a trophy she had never seen before, and it would be strange if Vichy didn't think that it fell from Nia.
"I don't understand." Vichy shook his head: "You didn't tell me where the ruby chain came from."
"That's right." Ash said, "I won't tell you, so it's useless for you to think about it."
"Stingy." Vichy stuck out her tongue at him and went back to the kitchen to continue preparing snacks.
"So you want to change the color of your feathers?" Ash looked at Igula and Harvey, and they naturally shook their heads.
Igula's feathers are warm gold soul feathers, and Harvey's feathers are dark green undead feathers, both of which fit their own magical factions. They are not like Vishi who practices dual magic, so they have no such need at all.
"What about you, Vichy?" Ash looked at Vichy who came out with the puffs, "But you only have one blue feather."
Vichy raised his hand: "Can you also transform my blue feathers into shining colors?!"
"You are just a fire spirit, not a soul body. What do you want the colorful feathers for? I can transform your dark blue feathers into fiery red feathers."
"But I will definitely return to the Soul Prophecy faction in the future. Rather than trouble you to transform again in the future, it is better to transform all my feathers into shining colors now, so that I don't have to repeat the work!"
Vichy had an expression that said 'I'm thinking about you'.
"You are right," Ash murmured, "You can't just use Zhishouhuo for your whole life..."
"Right, right?"
"But I still don't want to." Ash said, "Because I can't recover the colorful feathers, which means I have no way to punish you. I won't be able to do anything if you jump on my face. Now I finally found a weak spot that can hurt you. Unless I eat too much fat and become stupid, don't expect me to give up."
"It hurts if you spank me..." Vichy weakly retorted, "Then I won't turn around. The soul feather will help to warm my consciousness."
"So do you want to upgrade your magic spirits?" Ash said, "It's no problem to upgrade all of your magic spirits to four wings. The effect of "Four Color Pollution" does not require any cost. It is not stained by white or stained by white."
Igula and Harvey were obviously tempted. To be honest, because of all the adventures they had been running around, they had no time to settle down and build a system for upgrading their spiritual arts. Not to mention four-winged spiritual arts, they didn't even have many three-winged spiritual arts, and most of them were still two-winged spiritual arts.
The Kingdom of Stars has also cut off all their ways of obtaining magical spirits, so even if the Secret Poison of Hell can grow their fourth virtual wing, their combat power will hardly be improved. After all, magical power is the energy pool, and magical spirits are the output end. No matter how big the energy pool is, it is limited by the small faucet at the output end.
"I advise you not to rely on this method to advance your magic spirit, especially your key magic spirit."
Vichy handed a puff to Ash, leaning against his wheelchair and saying, "I have seen many miracles of forcibly increasing the number of wings of a magic spirit, such as "All or Nothing" which turns a magic spirit into a one-time one, or "Super Fusion" which forcibly fuses multiple identical magic spirits. Their costs are already quite high, and there is even an unacceptable failure rate, but compared with "Four Color Pollution", they are all acceptable."
"You have never seen a bad-tempered magic spirit, so you don't know how much damage this kind of existence can cause. Let me put it this way, there was once an organization that wanted to recruit me. That organization had two leaders, one of whom was a psychic demigod named "Mind Flayer". His most terrifying miracle, "Mind Awakening", was to make the enemy's magic spirit have a strong sense of self-awareness."
"Once the magic spirits have self-awareness, they will have joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, desires, cravings, dislikes, and likes. The magic spirits will start to form gangs and hurt each other, and even put forward various conditions to the magician. Moreover, this is an irreversible process. The magic spirits that have been "awakened" must be abandoned, otherwise they will sooner or later demolish the temple of the demigod. Therefore, few people dare to go against the mind flayer. After all, the soul can still hold on if it is injured, but if the magic spirit is awakened, the magic spirit system will sooner or later collapse."
"But because it takes a while for the awakening of the mind to develop and it cannot cause damage immediately, the Mind Flayer often works together with another leader, the Forbidden Demon. The Forbidden Demon can create an area that interferes with the flow of magic power, so that magicians cannot use magic power and can only rely on the tacit understanding between the magic spirit and the magician to cast spells. Magic spirits that have awakened their minds are almost unwilling to continue to work for the magician. "
"The Mind Flayers and Forbidden Demons used this miraculous combination to intimidate many demigods and form a powerful force in Hell."
Igula asked: "Then how do you crack it?"
Vichy shook his head: "It can't be cracked."
"So you joined their organization?"
"At that time, I walked in hell as a prophet." Wei Xi said faintly: "They didn't know that I was a soul magician. And the soul faction is one of the few spells that can directly strengthen the soul body."
"And I have mastered the legendary close combat method, but the two of them are orthodox long-range magicians."
"They thought I was forced to be locked up with them." She ran her hand through Ash's hair and gently rubbed Ash's chin with the back of her hand. "But in fact, they were forced to be locked up with me."
Ash slapped Vichy's hand away and said unhappily, "I never doubted that I was forced to be locked up with you. You don't need to emphasize this point."
Weishi bent down and picked up a puff, then continued, "But even 'Mind Awakening' only gives the spirit a personality, and it doesn't necessarily mean a bad temper. But Four Color Pollution will definitely give the spirit a bad temper. If it can be used on the enemy spirit, it would be a good curse and killing move."
Ash had a complicated expression when he heard this and tried to refute: "But can't a magician control magic spirits?"
"You can control me too." Vichy said.
Ash suddenly realized: "In other words, to be promoted to a magic spirit through the four-color pollution is equivalent to changing the magic spirit into a person with the same personality as you? When I'm not paying attention, it will beat other magic spirits, destroy my soul, and do everything it can to kill me?"
"…You are right about the second half of your sentence." Vichy blinked, "But the maid will not kill the master who is willing to reward the feather~"
Yaxiu originally thought that the four-color pollution was the most useful effect of the White Bull Color Tail. After all, it did not consume any extra resources and promoted all the magic spirits for free, which was like opening a green fast channel in the virtual realm. But now it seems that the four-color pollution is simply a big dye vat that makes the magic spirits enter the rebellious period!
Although Vichy had warned them, Igula and Harvey still chose to upgrade to a magic spirit. They didn't have any four-winged magic spirits at the moment, and even if they had one, it would bring about a qualitative change in their combat power, so they had to try it even if it was risky.
To put it bluntly, the two of them are already the bottom-ranked legendary magicians in the Kingdom of Stars. Even if their magic spirits are damaged, it will not change their ranking. But if they can control a sick four-winged magic spirit, they can at least compete with other legends.
Seeing this, Vichy didn't say anything, but just reminded: "Ash you have a four-winged spirit, and my maid mode can also promote your spirit to a god spirit. You don't need to use the four-color pollution on your spirit."
Ash nodded, "Yeah, I see."
Wei Xi was startled, and immediately realized that his attitude was wrong: "You have already used it?"
Ash was somewhat helpless: "I have to try it myself before I dare to tell you."
"What kind of magic spirit did you use?"
"It's not the key spirit. The one I used for the experiment is a spirit that needs to be promoted but won't have much impact even if it's gone!" Ash said quickly, "It's a substitute spirit!"
As the first magic spirit he obtained, the Substitute Magic Spirit is still quite practical even now. However, except for the upgrade of the Substitute Magic Spirit to two wings in the Time Continent, the Substitute Magic Spirit has never been upgraded again, and Ash's magic faction cannot upgrade it. Therefore, the first thing Ash did after obtaining the White Bull Tail was to upgrade the Substitute Magic Spirit to four wings.
"I remember that the substitute spirit was a humanoid spirit..." Wei Xi looked like he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. "It should have given you a surprise by now, right?"
Ash smiled bitterly, "Yes."
The appearance of the Substitute Spirit is a little man wearing pajamas and sleeping with a pillow. After being promoted to four wings, in addition to its pajamas becoming elegant and luxurious, the biggest change is that it now has a big bed!
In Ash's soul, the Stand Spirit suddenly turned into a super bully. It didn't sleep well, but went out to hug other Spirits and rolled around in bed with them. After hugging for a while, it changed to another one. Now it was sleeping with the Heart Sword Spirit, who was blinking and lying quietly next to the Stand Spirit.
At least it didn't hurt other spirits, that was all Ash could comfort himself. If the substitute spirit caused any trouble, he could only cut it off and kill the substitute for the sake of justice!
After dealing with these matters, Igula asked, "Is it over? Do you have anything else to hide?"
Wei Xi also smiled and asked, "Besides the heart, what else did you steal from Nia?"
"No more, you can all go away." Ash said, "Rose and Fili stay, I have something to tell you... Go to the study."
Fili was a little confused. Rose nodded and came over to wipe the puff cream off the corner of Ash's mouth, then pushed his wheelchair into the study.
Watching the three of them leave, Igula looked at Vichy with a serious expression: "Could he be thinking...?"
"Yes." Wei Xi sat down and crossed his legs, and said lazily, "I was in a bad mood last night and I scolded him a few times. I guess he really listened to me."
"Mr. Vichy, could you please stop causing trouble, even if it's just for yourself?"
"Everyone said I was in a bad mood yesterday, and I didn't expect him to really care that much." Weishi tossed the puff up and ate it in one bite, "It's obviously just some shadows."
"But you are just a scum who should have gone to hell long ago." Igula had made no effort to hide his anger towards the demigod.
"Don't worry, we will all go to hell sooner or later." Wei Xi clapped his hands: "Are you going?"
"Go." Igula also stood up.
Harvey looked at the two of them, confused by their tacit understanding: "Where to?"
"Eavesdropping." Vichy and Igulla said in unison.
"Also, Mr. Igulla." Vichy ate the last puff and said leisurely, "I'm in a good mood today, so I will just remember your disrespect to me just now and won't retaliate."
"Don't think that those thousands of words of orders really have no loopholes." She squinted at Igula. She was obviously shorter than Igula, but Igula felt that he was being looked down upon. "I'm just too lazy to play that kind of little prank."
"You have neither the right nor the ability to interfere in what happens between me and Ash." She yanked down Igula's tie, pulling the trickster's head down: "Don't think you can really be on equal footing with me."
After that, she walked quickly to the door of the study. Igula looked at her back coldly and adjusted his tie.
"This is probably the state of a magic spirit that has been contaminated by the four colors," Harvey said. "It's one way when there's a magician watching it, and it's another way when there's no magician watching it."
…
…
“This world is likely to be destroyed.”
In the study, after Fili and Rose sat down, Ash said directly: "We don't have much time."
