This is a very large space where various machines are stored. Some of them are devices similar to computer operating desks, and behind the devices are some thick black pipes connected to the tall trees standing in the center.
All the magic power flowing in the Magic Kingdom is gathered in this big tree.
This huge tree acts as a container for magic.
But there is something even more terrifying under this towering tree: pale human bones.
A huge number of skeletons are arranged in circles around the bottom of the tree, just like building blocks, built from the bottom to the top. You can even smell a faint sense of magic on these skeletons.
This means that the bones are still fresh.
"The container of Thanatos?" Jiang Xia said slowly as he stood in front of the big tree made of bones.
Thanatos is the god of death, and his vessel represents the use of humans as reservoirs to accumulate enormous magical power.
Jiang Xia had once faced tens of millions of brutal alien insect armies and had seen the bloody scenes of them killing humans, so he was not overly shocked when he saw this huge tree made of human bones.
Now I just want to kill the Shaper.
"Yes, this is the key to the magic circulation system." A deep voice came out from the other side of the bone tree. It was a middle-aged man dressed in black with a sinister look on his face.
"Golden Magician, the person who helped you come to this world should also be here." Jiang Xia looked at him and said lightly.
The middle-aged man now is the human form of the golden magician, the human named Oma.
"Of course, in order to obtain the ultimate power, we will unite our camps."
The golden magician walked out from behind Omar and looked at Jiang Xia together.
"Sure enough, the only one who can help myself is myself, and there are two golden magicians." Jiang Xia sighed as he looked at Omar and the golden magician standing side by side.
One is the golden magician from the magic gem world, and the other is the golden magician from the earth.
They are different from the two Soma Haruto who are in a hostile relationship with each other. On the contrary, they are both magicians transformed from phantoms.
And they all have the same power and ambition, so they will not allow their other selves to be defeated before their plans are completed.
Chapter 437 Immortality
When two golden magicians appeared before their eyes, all their actions became reasonable. It was they who brought them to the magic kingdom and helped the golden magicians.
In the Earth world, after the golden magician was interrupted, someone used the same method as him, even the magic circle only stopped for a while and then started to work again. There are the same magics in the world, but the effects released cannot be the same.
So the answer is obvious. For some unknown reason, the golden magician in the world of magic gems cooperated with his real-world counterpart. One was responsible for finding the philosopher's stone and allowing those who possessed the stone to enter the magic kingdom, while the other secretly used his identity to store magic power in the kingdom.
So this is the true homologue, they have the same thinking and can quickly understand each other's environment, so they find a way to gather together and want to use another self to complete a magic ritual.
"It seems that you can also understand the benefits of having an identical self." Omar showed a proud look on his face, "Another self is a shortcut to eternal immortality."
"Immortality?" Jiang Xia raised his eyebrows. When it came to eternal life and power, he didn't mind giving the other party a few minutes to explain clearly.
However, he had also prepared himself mentally in advance, because too many monsters or creatures had mentioned the word "eternity" in front of him, ranging from memories to various monsters with destructive powers, all of which could be used to achieve the immortality that ordinary people yearn for.
He had become tired of hearing this word during his evolution. Moreover, even the sun would go out, the galaxy would shatter, and the universe would eventually perish in the continuous increase of entropy.
The man who used special abilities to remain immortal just now couldn’t even withstand the sun. The guy in front of him claims that he can obtain the power of immortality. Isn’t it a bit ridiculous?
"Yes, the eternal power." Omar smiled, raised his hand and excitedly began to introduce his plan. He had been holding it in for a long time, and only he knew about this plan. It was really boring!
Now that he finally has someone to talk to, of course he wants to share the joy of his success. Otherwise, why doesn't he just do everything quietly by himself and not tell anyone?
Jiang Xia folded his arms and looked curious, just like a child carrying a small stool to listen to a story, because to him, the golden magician's operation was just a story in a fairy tale.
"If you want to gain the power of immortality, you first need another self, one with a similar way of thinking, because only in this way can the two people be completely integrated through some means." Omar pointed at himself and the golden magician.
"I think your way should be to accomplish it through magic, using the magic power stored in the Magic Kingdom as energy." Jiang Xia raised his finger and looked at the skeleton tree in the center of the room.
He did not find this operation strange, as he had seen Zui Shang Kuixing who used a parallel transfer machine to pull an entire parallel world over and merge with another self, and he also knew about the mechanical life form No. 108 who merged with his past self.
These two are both examples of successful fusion. Jiang Xia feels that the principle of the golden magician's own fusion is basically the same.
"Yes, this story starts from the moment when the real me was born from the human body. As a phantom, I am always looking for ways to make humans completely despair."
Omar's body glowed with light and he turned into a Drake Phantom with a pair of golden horns on his head that curved backwards. "As a Phantom, I actually heard the call from the magic gem."
"It was at the seaside. A huge orange magic gem rose from the vast sea. It summoned me and brought me to a world where everyone is a magician!"
Drake's voice began to rise. "Everyone here can freely use the magic power in their body from birth, and everyone has a magician's belt. Even children can use magic rings to drive the phantom in their body. At that time, I thought I came to heaven, because the awakening of the phantom requires people with magic power to despair, but everyone here is a magician, and anyone can do it."
Being able to increase companions infinitely, wouldn’t that be heaven?
If he went to the extreme and targeted people with families, he could almost increase the number of phantoms endlessly.
Even newborn babies have magical powers and may become phantoms out of despair, so as long as the phantom is a little smarter and strides towards the evil side, this country will become a world where monsters are rampant.
"This is indeed a very suitable world for Phantom to survive." Jiang Xia nodded. Few people can endure the desperate pain and the feeling of being unable to suppress themselves, as if living is a pain.
For the people here, magic is just a tool to rely on, just like their own hands, and few of them can survive despair.
There are not just a few people in this world who want to die every day because of various reasons, but hundreds and thousands.
Everyone has the urge to self-destruct in their long life. The magic kingdom is not occupied by the phantom now, so it can only be said that there are other factors.
"That's right. In the process of trying to make humans despair and turn into phantoms, I was surprised to find that the phantoms here actually obeyed the orders of a magician. This is simply impossible!" Omar seemed to be revisiting the scene, with an exaggerated sense of horror on his face.
"Phantoms and magicians are natural enemies, but here, all the awakened phantoms have been recruited by the magicians hiding behind the scenes, except for me, an outsider."
"So you joined?" Jiang Xia raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, I used the Phantom's appearance to contact the mysterious golden magician. I wanted to replace him. We Phantoms cannot obey the orders of a magician. I was going to kill him the moment I saw him."
Omar was a little indignant about this, but in the next second, his face turned happy again. "But I didn't expect that when I was about to attack him, I was surprised to find that the golden magician who manipulated all the phantoms behind the scenes and led humans to despair from time to time was actually me."
"In this world, I am not just a phantom, but also a powerful magician through the belt, and I play an important role in this country full of magicians. The moment I recognized myself, cooperation became a natural thing."
"Not only did I get the belt and magic ring by myself, but I also obtained forbidden magic that could influence the world, that is, the fusion of parallel worlds, through the library accumulated here over the long years!"
Omar unbuttoned his waist, revealing a bright red belt.
He was originally just a phantom, but the golden magician of this world gave him a belt and trained him.
It turns out that the golden magician in this world is holding the white magician's script. Jiang Xia was slightly thoughtful.
He holds a high position in the magic kingdom and can command the actions of magicians, while he hides in the dark, controlling phantoms such as Guremlin, Medusa, and Felix, and guiding the people of this world to evil. Moreover, judging from their colors, one is black and the other white, but their subordinates overlap a lot.
It's basically the same template, just the leader and purpose have changed.
"Why are you the only one talking? Aren't you going to say something?" Jiang Xia turned his gaze to the golden magician who had remained silent and maintained his transformed appearance.
These two people are said to be the same person, but their personalities seem to be very different.
One of them is talking about his plan recklessly, wishing to tell everything at once, while the other is extremely taciturn. Can two people with opposite personalities get along?
Chapter 438 The cruel truth
"I just don't like to waste my time on things that are already established."
The golden magic circle slowly disappeared, and after it was lifted, another Omar revealed his true appearance in the basement of the palace. His heavy and old voice seemed to be telling stories of the distant past.
"So that's how it is. Even a phantom can't exist forever." Jiang Xia shook his head.
The other golden magician who revealed his true face had his gray hair combed back neatly, and he was also wearing a black magic robe. However, compared with Omar, the middle-aged man, he looked much older.
The lifespan of a phantom is much longer than that of a human being, and a magician should also have some means to prolong his lifespan, but the golden magician is now very old, and one can smell the scent of his impending death from a long distance away.
A phantom who is about to die and step into the coffin.
This old man gives people the feeling that he has to exert a lot of effort to speak, but this does not mean that his fighting ability is weak. On the contrary, he can be said to be the strongest magician in this magic kingdom.
Combat capability is combat capability, and life span is life span.
"Since you brought the Philosopher's Stone, I'll tell you." The old Omar took over the conversation. No matter who it was, he felt that no one could stop them, so he directly and openly took over the ownership of the Philosopher's Stone.
A greedy villain is still a villain even if he grows old; his nature does not change.
The greed revealed in his first sentence also answered Jiang Xia's doubts. Their desire for other people's treasures was exactly the same, so the fusion of these two people would definitely be successful.
"My goal is to gain the power of immortality after fusion and return myself to youth. To do this, I need a large enough amount of magic power. Everything you see now is part of the plan."
The old Omar introduced his book as if he was introducing a museum. "The most important magic circulation system is the Thanatos container, which is made of the bones of magic residents. It replaces the circulation function of money. This is an important source of magic. In addition to the circulation system, phantoms are also one of the sources of magic."
"The Phantom's magic power has also been sucked dry?" Jiang Xia figured out another question, which is why each Phantom looks like a malnourished, weak and pitiful creature. It turns out that they have been sucked dry when they left the factory.
"Not only that, I also intend to control the number of phantoms born to maintain the stability of the magic flow system. Although phantoms are a very useful source, they can be easily sucked dry and their bodies disintegrate. The value of phantoms is not as great as that of humans, and too many phantoms will cause a big mess. After all, there will be some restless guys among the phantoms."
My goodness, this is the benefit of having two identities. Not only do the residents have to hand over the magic power in their bodies while they are alive, but even after they turn into phantoms out of despair, the remaining value will be squeezed out.
The population size is also controlled from time to time. When there are many people, part of the population is used to maintain and expand the capacity of the Thanatos container. When there are few people, they are allowed to develop naturally.
What's even more tragic is that everything about your life here is arranged. Once you lose confidence in living, you may be dragged into forced despair and become a battery that provides magic power.
The magic kingdom is a place of peace and prosperity. Everyone has magic power in their hands and can even use this almost omnipotent power. From time to time, they can beat some phantoms who have been drained of magic and are in a weak state to maintain their sense of justice. For ordinary people living in modern society, this is simply a paradise.
But hidden beneath this appearance is the trampling of life. The golden magician has completely objectified humans and regarded them as just a kind of consumables. There are more than dozens or hundreds of skeletons buried in this country. The units are completely wrong. They are tens, hundreds of thousands, and millions of units of consumables.
There are no natural disasters, only man-made disasters.
"I have another question. What do you need the Philosopher's Stone for?" Jiang Xia asked the question without any change on his expression.
"Of course, it's to reopen the Witch's Feast. The Philosopher's Stone is an almighty magic gem. The more powerful the owner, the more they can do. The Witch's Feast is no exception. No preparation is required. Once you get it, you can instantly transform all the residents of the Magic Kingdom into phantoms."
The two Omars spoke in unison:
"To become the king, we need an army to dominate the world. Through the Phantom of the Witch's Feast, I can write the order of surrender into their minds at the moment of despair. In this way, I will become an immortal being that rules over two worlds."
Now the reason why Di Muzou was able to gain the submission of so many phantoms is clear. Jiang Xia only inherited his appearance and abilities, and did not write any magic into the phantoms.
At the moment of Sage Phantom's death, it was weakened by the command of surrender written into Phantom's mind.
So when it was his turn to summon the phantoms, some phantoms dared to resist the sage in the face of behaviors that obviously affected the phantoms' instincts. It was just that Jiang Xia also changed the way to control them. In essence, they were the same.
And because Guremlin did not lose himself, but just turned into a monster between a phantom and a human, he can move freely and make choices according to his mood, but he is the only one.
However, Jiang Xia felt that Di Mu Zou had discovered halfway through the Witch's Banquet that the magic power he had obtained was not enough to support Di Mu Li's resurrection, so he temporarily wrote in the magic to make the phantoms surrender.
"The story is over, so can you go die now?" Jiang Xia said with a smile.
When the two Omars heard Jiang Xia's words, they just looked at each other and then laughed: "You don't think we are still two separate people, do you? We know the strength of the opponent we are facing, so we have already merged. What you see now is just my clone."
Omar felt that the fact that they were separated into two persons must have given the white magician an illusion. He thought it was still the same golden magician who could be defeated before.
The reason for laughing like this is that the white magician finally fell into their trap.
Would someone really tell their enemy that they are about to evolve and gain ultimate power?
If someone really does this, it is not confidence, but a fool.
The more critical the node is, the deeper it should be hidden. It is best to inform the user when you have finished all your tasks and are sure you will not be disturbed.
Because at this time, the information obtained by the enemy is outdated. You think you can stop my fusion, but in fact the fusion has been completed long ago. They will not be stupid enough to reveal any information to the outside world before their goal is achieved.
They are not those third-rate villains who like to reveal information after completing their goals.
And the fusion process started very early, right after the White Magician defeated Drake Phantom. The golden beam of light was actually the light of fusion, and the huge orange magic gem that replaced the sun was the altar of fusion.
Of course, only in this way can the golden magician on Earth survive Jiang Xia's attack. It is precisely because the fusion of the ritual has already begun that it will trigger a magic circle that is large enough to cover the city and a vision that is large enough to cover the sky.
What's more, they invited Jiang Xia to come here. The golden magician on Earth was almost killed in an instant. If they hadn't had the power to snatch the Philosopher's Stone, they would never have appeared in front of Jiang Xia.
As they spoke, the two figures disappeared in an instant, and were replaced by a brand new magician.
"Did I ask two people to die?" Jiang Xia asked doubtfully.
Chapter 439 Fusion Oma
Never think that you are smarter than others. Weakness and ignorance are never obstacles to survival, arrogance is.
When Jiang Xia stepped into this space and saw Thanatos' container, he already understood most of the key points of this matter. When using the magic circulation system, he used his magic to buy some sugar donuts for Cao Zhenqingren in the pink RV. At that time, he noticed the end point of the magic flow.
As a result, when he followed the circulation route to check the magic power accumulated by the magic kingdom over the years, he found that there was very little magic power left in the container, and at that time he already understood that they had been consumed.
This way, there will be plenty of time, Jiang Xia can patiently listen to the entire plan and make their plan fail.
Hearing what Jiang Xia said, Omar just sneered. He was still bragging at this time. It seemed that he didn't realize the horror of the fusion.
From the moment they truly merged, their lives were sublimated. Weakness and aging no longer existed. They had the power to turn the world into nothingness, indestructible bodies, infinite magic power, and immortal life.
He possesses power that surpasses all other magicians, and in his eyes, all magic is just composed of the simplest lines.
All elements in this world are controlled by him, and those who rely on magic gems to cast magic are not aware of the true nature of the world at all.
"The Philosopher's Stone in your hand will allow me to plant my flags all over the two worlds. Let your blood be the first step in my conquest of the world!"
