Reaching the root is the ultimate ideal of most magicians, and to reach the root, you must first explore the path to the root.
Now, the act of exploring the root of the problem must be explicitly prohibited. This statement is simply cutting off the path of the demonic path of most magic inheritances in the world.
Even though the magicians who came to Iceland today knew from the images sent to the organization that the guy sitting on the Ice Throne was an extremely terrifying existence, they still couldn't help but make an uproar.
You are strong and reasonable, but you want to block the path of magic. This is something difficult to accept for a magician who pursues the root cause.
Cutting off a person's future is like killing one's parents, but for magicians, if killing one's own parents can lead to the source and one step closer to the path of magic, there may be many magicians who would kill their parents without hesitation.
Even their parents will happily accept the results of this meaningful sacrifice. Perhaps, some people will get married a few more times so that their magician children can have more nominal children to kill. Parents, maybe.
There was constant noise below, and many hostile eyes were cast on Wu Ke on the ice platform.
"Quiet, listen to me."
Wu Ke tried to restore calm to the scene, but found that just using words was useless, so he used a little bit of his spiritual consciousness.
When the restraint comes, there will be a feeling that a storm is coming and dark clouds are about to destroy the city. However, if Wu Ke's consciousness is concentrated in one place and releases his malice in a targeted manner, it can also give people It creates a similar, even more oppressive feeling.
The more sensitive people are to the perception of mental power, the more they can appreciate the horror of this kind of malice, and the magician happens to be an expert in this area, so in just a moment, the noisy sound disappears.
Everyone felt an invisible pressure, which suddenly pressed on themselves. It was like being sunk into a bottomless sea of darkness. They could feel the pure evil surging around them like a tide, but it was impacting them. mind.
Unspeakable fear stimulated everyone's hearts. Many people wanted to scream at the top of their lungs, but after opening their mouths, they found that they could not shout any sound at all, as if they were blocked by something. They keep their mouths shut, but in fact their throat muscles have become stiff due to tightness.
In the world of Xingyue, there is a saying that mystery will succumb to higher mystery, and everything in the world has a mysterious existence, such as the human soul, consciousness and other manifestations, which can be regarded as a manifestation of some kind of mystery, and now in front of us What happened caused people to feel fear in their souls, so much so that they couldn't even make a sound...
"This is already a fear curse that has reached the root level."
Ji Gumalie, the lord of the curse department, crawled out of his pocket a cursed doll and spoke in a voice.
Gemstone Weng nodded. He was the one who had reached the source, so he could distinguish it more clearly.
[This is a matter of course. After all, I saw him with my own eyes back then, immersed in the evil of this world.
According to the information transmitted from Weber, the other party should have completely accepted the evil in this world, inherited the concept of Angola Mainyu, and became the new evil god of this world.
The concept of Angora Mainyu is the main dark god in ancient Persian mythology. His personality and mystery in this world are definitely that of Laman.
But why, why do I have to be suppressed? 】
Kenneth cursed in his heart.
"The root is the control system of the world. The magician who explores the root is actually pursuing control of certain rules of the world. That is the authority of the world..."
Wu Ke's calm voice resounded throughout the venue, and the fear in people's hearts gradually subsided. However, no one in the crowd who had been forced to remain silent dared to speak and interfere with his speech at will.
“Of course, there is nothing wrong with pursuing the root cause, wanting to gain the authority to control the rules of the world, and making oneself better and stronger.
However, most of the magicians I have seen and heard of are those who have the ambition to gain power, but do not have the ability and temperament to match the pursuit of power.
In order to trace the root cause and gain the authority to control the rules, those people will do whatever it takes to destroy lives and trample on the laws and morals of the world..."
Hearing this, many magicians looked at each other and thought, isn't this kind of thing normal?
Magicians possess extraordinary powers that ordinary people do not have, so they should be above secular morality and law. This is the idea of most magicians.
Since ancient times, those who have mastered the power of magic have been the rich and powerful. Only in modern times, the number of magicians from ordinary families has gradually increased, but it has not been enough to change the mainstream of magicians who do not take ordinary people's lives seriously. the opinion of.
Of course, most magicians are sophisticated egoists, and generally will not do things that are not beneficial, so they will only do things like harming lives when necessary.
But if the moral level is high, like Kenneth, a guy with the arrogance of an ancient magic aristocrat, if his use of magic is witnessed by ordinary people, most of the time what he does is just clean up the memories of ordinary people, rather than more simple and crude methods. Kill ordinary people who witness the use of magic.
However, this is also affected by his experience of the Fourth Holy Grail War. Since the Fourth Holy Grail War, Kenneth has not paid much attention to the so-called confidentiality regulations.
Damn it, there are gas explosions every day in Fuyuki City. Ordinary people can believe that kind of explanation. I am afraid that even if someone actually sees magic being used, there is a high probability that it will be used as a means of performing tricks. Keep it secret. It is really a chicken to keep it secret...
Back to business.
"That's a mistake!"
Wu Ke commented.
Although his statement is different from the views of mainstream magicians, most of them are magicians who belong to the orthodox magic inheritance and generally do not do anything that violates secular laws and morals, so they have no objections to this.
"I believe that people with greater abilities should be more aware of their responsibilities. What responsibilities are they? The responsibility of maintaining world peace and protecting social order..."
Everyone below was speechless. The words were a bit broad, and the meaning was so great that they gave everyone an unreal feeling.
"Only magicians with this kind of mentality and cognition can be allowed to explore the root cause and be qualified to continue pursuing powerful power and rule authority.
And the stronger the magician without this kind of mentality and cognition, the greater the harm he may cause to the world and society.
This is something that the restraining power of this planet and I will not allow you to do. Therefore, on behalf of Gaia, the restraining power of the planet, Alaya Consciousness, the restraining power of mankind, and myself, I prohibit those guys from continuing to pursue their pursuits with strong-willed justice. Strength, the act of exploring the roots.
Which of you agrees with this rule and who opposes it?
If you agree, raise your hands and let me see what you say! "
There was silence in the field, and many magicians were thinking about the meaning of his words.
"There's nothing to be hesitant about. I agree with this rule!"
The first person to raise his hand was not Kenneth, who had reached an agreement with Wu Ke and was ready to cooperate internally and externally, but the gem man next to him.
"Hey, if I had known that you didn't want to rule the mysterious world and control a large number of magicians to do some evil things for you, I wouldn't have had to jump out in such a hurry."
The gem man not only raised his hands, but also raised two hands.
"Jewel man, you?"
The magic monarchs nearby were shocked.
"What's wrong with me? Don't you know my character very well? What's wrong with me raising my hands?"
Gemstone Weng asked rhetorically.
He is the kind of person who can use evil deeds to do good things, and who is indignant at evil and laughs at good things.
Although he is a transcendent magician, he is different from other powerful beings. He always frequently gets involved in worldly affairs, and he also stops things that he dislikes.
Therefore, in the Magic Association, Gemstone Man is also a figure that causes headaches for the management of the Magic Association, because his behavior always follows his own temperament.
As for the character of the Jewel Man, to put it mildly, he is a demonic righteous man who wanders around the mysterious world, an old man who may appear next to the destined person who likes him, and distributes super opportunities. Although in history, there is only the first head of the Tohsaka family, Tosaka Nagato. Got huge benefits.
To put it bluntly, this is an old naughty boy whose outlook is somewhat different from that of a normal magician, more like an ordinary person. However, this old naughty boy has the powerful ability to easily twist off the head of the Magic Monarch and use it as a ball... …
"I agree."
Although the situation was a bit delicate, Kenneth also raised his hand at this time.
"Everyone, this is just an act to prohibit those magicians who follow evil ways from exploring the root cause. It has nothing to do with magicians like us who rely on hard power to explore the root cause without violating other people's interests and lives.
Or is there anyone here who is willing to admit that their magic skills are insufficient and that they must rely on crooked ways to have the confidence to reach the root cause? "
As soon as these words came out, many arrogant magicians raised their hands one after another, and I don't know if it was because of the good lead of the gem man, but there were quite a few people raising their hands, as if they were making a gesture of surrender. The action made Wu Ke look a little stunned from above.
"I have a question. I wonder if I can ask you?"
Until the dean of the Atlas Academy raised his hand and said something that was not in agreement but that he had a question to ask.
"you say."
Wu Ke looked at the white-bearded old man who spoke.
"Your first rule prohibits magicians who do not abide by secular laws, morals, and order. We already understand this.
However, I still have doubts about the specific conditions for a magician who is allowed to continue to explore the root, or even reach the root.
After all, when you said before about maintaining world peace and protecting social order, without specific regulations, there is too much room for maneuver. "
The dean of the Atlas Academy said, and after speaking, he used some metaphors.
For example, there are countries in the world where human trafficking is legal. If a magician goes to those countries to purchase humans for magic experiments, will it be considered a reason to prohibit further exploration of the root cause?
These examples point directly to human nature and represent the ugliness of human beings. The magician did not interfere, but is just the result of ordinary people's own development.
If you have to say what the magician did there, it would be to stand in an area where the law is non-existent and morals are corrupt, and he became a consumer for a time, and gave a desperate family who may have sold his own children, so that he could live in that difficult situation. The environment continues to struggle for money to survive.
"This is a very good question, and my answer is no. Follow the secular laws, local morals and customs of each region. This is the most basic respect for each different region."
The gem man put down his hand, and his face became a little colder. I thought that the guy above was planning to do big things, but now it seems that the other person just wants to come up with a new set, but in essence it is different from the current magic world. The rules haven't changed much.
It is nothing more than extending the scope of the magician's ability to persecute life from any country or region to some special areas where conditions permit. It is conceivable that in the future, in those poor areas where human trafficking is allowed, such trading may be Magicians monopolize and contract purchases.
"However, although I do not prohibit magicians from doing things like purchasing people as permitted by local law, order, and morality, my second rule is to formulate corresponding personnel regulations for all magicians. Moral assessment.”
Hearing this, the magicians looked at each other. They knew the character and morality, but what exactly the character and morality assessment was was a bit confusing.
Medea's figure suddenly appeared on the ice platform next to Wu Ke. As soon as she clapped her hands, the magic power of Iceland gathered in front of everyone. Everyone had promotional papers made of magic power, and they fell into the hands of everyone below.
"The second rule is a supplementary explanation to the first rule, but it does not only supplement the instructions required for magicians, but also stipulates all non-human intelligent beings such as true ancestors and dead disciples.
Every person in the mysterious world needs to undergo a moral assessment every year, and the worst moral assessment result may cause the examiner to be regarded as an enemy of mankind and the enemy of the world, and will be correctly eliminated by the messenger of justice, Lord SB. ! "
Medea explained.
In the past, the Magic Association's grade evaluation of a magician was based on the magician's magic talent, as well as the achieved research success and the value of magic development.
But then, in addition to talent, talent, and achievements, a magician will also be assessed on moral issues.
In addition to this, the magic paper also states that all institutions that inherit magic and organizations that manage mysteries must hand over their inherited magic and the right to manage mysteries.
To use an analogy.
In the past, the Clock Tower welcomed all magician students, but what you could learn after entering the Clock Tower depended on the magician students' own abilities.
But it will be different in the future. If beginners of magic want to enter the Clock Tower to study, they must first pass a character and moral assessment.
Only those who have passed the assessment can enter the Clock Tower to learn magic, but they can only be exposed to beginner-level knowledge. If you want to be exposed to higher and more profound knowledge later, in addition to the level of magic, character and morality will be forever bound together. .
Only those who fully meet the standards will be allowed to access more advanced magic knowledge and be qualified to purchase magic materials of the same level...
[Mystery will no longer be a mystery, it will just be the threshold for obtaining mysterious power. It must be raised countless times. In this world, the height that magicians can reach in the future. In addition to their talent and bloodline, their own moral standards will also become an important influencing factor... 】
As one of the writers of the Second Rule, Weber knew very well what the real meaning of the Second Rule was, which was to control the magic power of the entire world. It would be stricter than the original Magic Association to limit the spread of magic knowledge. channel.
To express it in a plot, it would be:
[If you want to learn magic and master powers beyond the ordinary, then your character must first pass.
If your character cannot pass the test, no matter how high your magic talent is, we will kick you out of the mysterious world and make you an ordinary person forever!
What, you want to learn magic secretly?
Ha, the entire world's magic inheritance and mysterious knowledge teachings are all restricted by unified teaching conditions. Where will you go to learn?
Even if you can really learn some magic in the corners, what about the materials for practicing magic?
That's right, not only magic knowledge, but also all magic materials will be included in the unified management in the third rule that will supplement the second rule later...]
What Wu Ke is doing is actually monopolizing the mysterious power of the entire world.
Of course, during the whole process, there was no intention to rob anyone, but to turn his own strong strength into rules that constrained the magician's behavior and bound him to the magician.
