Monster Hunting High School

Artificial God?

Zheng Qing vaguely remembered where he had heard this name.

Although he can't spare more brain power to search for memories now, Professor Monteria's next words helped the young wizard answer his doubts:

"——'Artificial God' is actually an old plan within the school. It was originally started as an interest group in the Alchemy Department. Well, the Alchemy Department was the largest magic faction in Alpha College before the merger of First University. In short, The idea of ​​those wizards at the beginning was very simple. Since wizards can refine elves, they can refine their arms, legs, and internal organs, they can make portraits speak, and they can resurrect the dead, then why not just refine a god?

The reason why they don't use the word "legend" is because for wizards, "legend" is a concept worthy of awe. On the contrary, gods can be blasphemed.

However, due to the development of magic skills and the subsequent emergence of more imaginative words and feasible projects such as Dimensionism, New World, Forbidden Spells, etc., most of the school's resources were tilted towards those new directions, and the Artificial God Project has always been Being shelved.

Until Dr. Duzem showed up.

He was truly a very talented alchemist.

In the original artificial god plan, there were always two core problems that could not be solved. One was the core energy. To rejuvenate a legendary-level existence, a very large and high-quality magic power was needed; the other problem was how to activate it. To avoid the resurrection of legendary corpses, you must know that legends are a group of beings who have jumped out of the long river of destiny. When they die, their true bodies and true spirits have dissipated together. In turn, the resurrection of their true bodies will most likely reunite them. His true spirit... By then, it will no longer be the 'Artificial God Plan', but the 'Great Resurrection Plan'.

Dr. Duzem used his cruel genius to solve the first problem, using the purest power of life to refine the Philosopher's Stone, and then used the power of the Philosopher's Stone as the source of activation... When 'Yuan Shi' or ' After Taiyi wakes up, they will naturally draw energy from the universe to maintain their existence. This is the legend.

As for the second problem, by coincidence, the solution appeared on last year’s Black Prison battlefield.

The forbidden curse of the Dark Council is based on the concept of 'yin and yang'. With this forbidden curse as the rule, and with the corrosive power of demon flesh and blood, it forms 'the demon flesh and blood is yin, the legendary flesh and blood is yang; the legendary death energy is yin , the dual four-part structure of "The Philosopher's Stone is the Yang" puts the awakened Legend in a strange state of being about to die but not yet alive..."

"What does any of this have to do with me?"

The young wizard suddenly spoke up, interrupting the chattering mechanical voice above the altar. Although what it said was interesting, Zheng Qing felt like he was about to fall asleep - but that was not the reason why he spoke.

Above the sea of ​​consciousness, most of the talisman spears that Zheng Qing had imagined had been condensed. As long as he listened to Professor Monteria's words, it seemed that it would not be difficult to persevere until the end.

But he couldn't hold back in the end and asked the question that had been bothering him.

"——What?" The voice echoing above the altar seemed not to have thought that Zheng Qing would interrupt him. He was stunned for a moment, then recovered and asked.

"I mean, what does this have to do with me?"

Hanging in mid-air, the edge type twisted hard and said in a very serious tone: "——Whether it is Yuanshi or any artificial god, I am not interested... You could have waited for me to leave, and then slowly Erode it. Why do you want to keep me here? Isn’t this just a warning? If you let me go quietly, you can have more time to respond!”

"Time? Haha."

Professor Monteria sneered twice and said in an incomprehensible tone: "——It's because I don't have time, so I take desperate risks. You want to know why? It's simple, because I don't have time. A few days ago, your black gem cat clone came I told you the answer to this question when we were at the Sakura Tavern: bloodline research is the most dangerous and most easily out-of-control magic research in the world... Well, speaking of the Sakura Tavern, I would like to thank you once."

"What?" This time, Zheng Qing was confused.

"The last time your black gem cat visited 'Kolma', I had already gotten into her 'condom', but there were still many details that had not been adjusted properly."

I don’t know if it was because of ‘acknowledgment’, but Professor Monteria explained very carefully:

"——So, when the wizards from the school's divination team broke into the Sakura Tavern and shouted, 'You are the closest to Monteria,' I was really shocked. I almost thought I was exposed. In the end, you mistakenly By accident, I used that key to help me avoid the biggest crisis... I originally gave you the key to the laboratory, but it was just on a whim that I didn't want my research to go to waste, but I didn't expect that there was still something wrong. Such an opportunity.”

A rather emotional sigh came from above the altar.

Mechanical and lengthy.

Seems extremely weird.

In the Edge 1 body, the half-condensed rune gun almost collapsed along with Zheng Qing's bad mood. here we go again. Last time in the Black Prison, he accidentally helped the demons a big favor; earlier, he accidentally collapsed the small white tower on the island in the center of Linzhong Lake. This time, he did it again in the Black Prison. The school gave Big Crow a cover right under their noses!

Sometimes, he had to wonder if he had suffered a backlash from luck - because he had gained the favor of his husband and the blessing of the forbidden curse, he had exhausted all his good luck and became extremely unlucky.

Or, what kind of damned ‘congenitally unhelpful holy body’ is he?

Just as the young wizard was madly complaining about himself in his heart, the mechanical voice reverberating above the altar had returned to the topic and talked about why it ‘didn’t have time’ again.

“——In short, although I am a little ashamed and don’t want to admit it, the fact is that the way I advanced to the great wizard did not achieve the expected effect. Or in other words, there is still a flaw in our experiment that cannot be made up.”

“You can obviously continue to wait.”

The young wizard hanging in the air was a little self-destructive, deliberately making things difficult for the professor: “… Since you have been lurking in the school for so long, why can’t you continue to wait for two more months and do two more experiments?”

In the center of the altar.

The witch looked up again and looked at the edge type.

Her eyes seemed to penetrate the heavy scales and the vast sea of ​​consciousness and fell directly in front of Zheng Qing, scaring him subconsciously holding his breath and concentrating, summoning thick fog above the sea of ​​consciousness, trying to cover up the existence of the light blue box.

"Because you gave us an illusion."

The professor's next words made Zheng Qing freeze in place.
