BXBX NOVEL Chapter 151 - Holy Light
Chapter 151: Holy Light
Using magic to produce a Grand Knight, even if it was just a small part of its power.
This was definitely a plan that other Wizards would not even dare to think of. This was not something that could be described as crazy. It was simply a fantasy.
But Heath was different.
He had already grasped the power of a Grand Knight, and he knew enough about Knights. There were countless training plans for Knights in his mind. If he were to put it all together, not to mention a real Grand Knight… However, he could still borrow some of this power.
In the future, he would need a lot of people to fight with other Wizards for territory and rule the territory. He could not do it alone.
Therefore, for the next period of time, Heath stayed in the center of the tower and devoted himself to this research.
He analyzed the strange runes, analyzed his own blood cells, and tried to combine them with various materials, starting from spells, potions, training methods, and so on.
He analyzed, judged, dialectically, guessed, and tried… and failed.
In the face of failure, he was not discouraged or compromised in the slightest. He quickly summarized his experience and then threw himself into the next experiment.
He concluded, tried, failed again, and concluded again…
All the food was sent to the tower by the servants. After he was full, he continued the experiment. When he was tired and sleepy, he lay on the experiment table and closed his eyes for a while. When he woke up, he continued the experiment. In the true sense, he forgot about sleep and food, day and night.
When one did what they liked to do and wanted to do, they would not feel tired no matter how much energy they put into it. This was the state that Heath was in right now.
Time passed through his experiments one after another. Hundreds, thousands of times…
Finally, when he did not know how many times he had failed, Heath finally developed some results…
In the stone tower.
“Ha! Ha! Ha!” Some maniacal laughter sounded.
In front of the stone window, Heath was holding a potion bottle in his hand. The bottle was flowing with a golden viscous liquid, shining under the sunlight.
Heath let out a long sigh. “Finally, there’s something…”
This was the original cell fluid that he had cultivated using his own blood cells as the blueprint. Its effect was similar to the ‘Golden Blood’, and it was also able to greatly improve the physique of ordinary humans.
The difference was that after absorbing this original cell fluid, it could also give people a trace of the power of a Grand Knight.
Although it was still far from being comparable to a real Grand Knight, it was still a great improvement compared to the original version of the Knight.
Other than that…
Heath placed the potion bottle on the wooden table and picked up a sheepskin scroll on the table. On the scroll, there were some strange figures’ postures and patterns, and there were also words and annotations on the side, like some kind of secret manual.
This was a secret manual for the cultivation of Knights.
During the research process, Heath found that this power of a Grand Knight had a special connection with the secret manual for the cultivation of Knights. Therefore, he focused on this aspect during the experiment.
There were so many secret manuals for the cultivation of Knights in his mind that he could not count them all. He had extracted at least 90% of the secret manuals for the cultivation of Knights in the entire Underdark Treesea.
After synthesizing a large number of secret knight techniques, he wrote a new cultivation secret technique that was compatible with the power of a Grand Knight.
After taking the cell original fluid, he could use this secret technique to cultivate and absorb the power of a Grand Knight in the cell original fluid to a greater extent. In the future, he could combine this power with the cell original fluid to a greater extent.
Moreover, if a Knight was willing to sacrifice his life to burn his own life force, he could even have the power of a Grand Knight in a short period of time.
“Next…”
Touching his chin, Heath looked at the cell origin liquid and the Knight’s secret manual in his hand.
Heath said emotionally, “It’s popularized…”
…
After that, Heath named the liquid cultivated from his cell origin liquid the ‘Blood of God’, and named this Knight’s secret manual the ‘Chapter of Light’.
And the trace of Grand Knight’s strength that was produced from the combination of the two after cultivating was decisively named by him —
Holy Light!
…
A few days later, in the Long Hair Princess Tower.
Sunlight fell into the hall through the cross-shaped window on the outside of the tower, interweaving into several beams of light in the hall.
In the spacious hall on the first floor, several men in nail-studded leather armor were standing under the sunlight, standing there as if they were waiting for something.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Soon, the sound of a gust of wind could be heard.
Along with this gust of wind, a figure slowly descended from the top floor of the tower.
The men all knelt on one knee on the ground. One of their hands was placed on their chests. Their gazes were focused on the figure that had descended. Their gazes were incomparably pious.
“Lord Oracle!”
A sonorous and powerful voice reverberated in the tower.
Looking at the pious men on the ground, Heath’s expression was a little awkward. He did not know whether he should praise his ability to deceive others or despise himself for being a great liar.
After Heath’s theory was put forward, some people did not believe it, while others were watching.
Some people believed his theory and went crazy.
The men in front of him were those who went crazy.
After Heath’s sermon, they really believed in the existence of the God of Light and immediately chose to join Heath’s Holy Church.
During this period of time, as long as he arranged for them to do things in the name of the God of Light, regardless of whether it was right or wrong, they would do everything in detail and try their best to complete it.
It was not an exaggeration to say that if necessary, they would even dare to kill a Wizard…
Heath raised his hand. “Get up.”
The men stood up in a flash and stood to the side. They held their heads high and puffed out their chests, their eyes filled with fanaticism.
For some reason, Heath felt his scalp go numb. Mass production of these religious madmen who were not afraid of life and death and were willing to die for the cause was indeed terrifying…
‘So, you must be careful in everything. You must never let things get out of your control.’
Quietly reminding himself in his heart, Heath asked a square-faced Knight, “Spencer, how are you? Have you recovered?”
The few men standing here were the Knights who had a brief conflict with him in the manor and had even fought with him for a while.
After Duke Dylan restrained them that day, in order to interrogate Heath, he only cut off their limbs and turned them into human sticks. He did not end them.
Such injuries were incurable among humans, but it was not a big deal for Wizards. Now was the time to use people, so Heath found suitable limbs to reattach them.
Spencer said, “Thanks to the mercy of the God of Light, Spencer is safe and sound. He can continue to serve our Lord at any time.”
The other Apprentice Knights also said firmly, “We will listen to the call of God at any time!”
Heath nodded, then took out the Blood of God and the Chapter of Light, and began to introduce, “This is the Blood of God and the Chapter of Light…”
Wouldn’t they be afraid of the humans rebelling if they were given such a deadly thing?
This problem was far from being considered.
The power of Wizards was far beyond what Heath had come into contact with so far. With his research results, they could at most be compared to magic puppets and alchemy puppets. It would be fine to help him fight for territory, but to overthrow the entire world and overthrow the rule of the Wizards…
That was not just a small difference. He would have to at least develop a large number of real Grand Knights…
Of course, in order to be on the safe side, Heath still made a lot of backdoors.
First, the Blood of God was cultivated from his cells’ origin liquid. It was ineffective on him. Even if things were to get out of his control in the future, it would not affect him.
Second, this technique was only in his hands. In the future, he was not going to share it with anyone. Even if other Wizards wanted to crack it, they would have to reach the Grand Knight realm and master a large number of Knights’ secret cultivation methods. He was not afraid of crazy people researching it in reverse.
Third, and most importantly, whether it was the Blood of God or the Chapter of Light, he had hidden countless incantations. He only needed to arrange the specific incantations and runes to make the Knights who learned it burn into ashes.
Through these three things, the power he had created was firmly in his hands!
As long as he could control this power, it would not be an enemy of the entire Wizard class. As for ideology, Wizards were mostly pragmatists. As long as there were enough benefits, they did not care about letting the ants rule the world.
Of course, Heath did not deny that it was a bit risky to play this way. If the Wizards were vigilant and decided to kill him before he became stronger, then he would really have to run away with a bucket…
However, everyone was busy fighting. Heath felt that this was a good opportunity to secretly develop. It would not take long. As long as he was given 10 years to develop, he would be able to accumulate enough capital to stand in the Underdark Treesea.
As for whether he should rope in other Wizards to share this power, or whether he should fight for hegemony, the initiative would at least be in his hands.
Taking risks was indeed risky, but it was undoubtedly a shortcut to speed up the establishment of his own territory.
In short, the matter was settled.
This summer, in the northwest of the forest border, a newly established religious organization, the Church of Light, established its first military force, the Knights of the church, also known as —
The Holy Knights!
…
Although he was full of confidence in his research results, Heath never expected that his investment of only a few days would bring him a return…
One month after the establishment of the Holy Knights.
Spencer, whom he appointed as the leader, went to find Heath, and the first thing he said was to make Heath dumbfounded.
Spencer said, “Lord Oracle, our people just caught a group of blasphemers outside the city, awaiting your punishment.”
“They are a group of Wizards!”
