Chapter 2907 The Origin of Wishes
Just as she was wondering, Hongdie immediately saw that on the head of the giant blue giant, the moonlight illuminated the densely packed white vesicles.
It was like putting a white wig on the giant who originally had only pigtails. If it was regarded as a wig, then its image would undoubtedly be very ridiculous. But once he found out that it was a vesicle of an insect, even in the form of a red butterfly, Shade still felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.
In order to prevent herself from seeing things wrong, the red butterfly under the moon "blinked" its eyes, and the magic - [Remaining Advice] was immediately activated. Even though it had turned into a relic, the information left by the hunters about it had not disappeared:
[There is a ghost in front, physical attacks are completely ineffective. 】
[Next, it's time to use soul attack. ]
[Offer your wishes and soul, let them bind themselves, and do not be afraid of sacrifice. ]
[Next, the "Crystal Bottle that Catches the Wind" will be very useful. ]
"What is the [Wind-Catching Crystal Bottle]?"
Xia De wanted to continue watching, but once this magic was used, the object being observed would have a very obvious perception. The blue giant spirit moving towards the city turned its head and looked to the left. Fortunately, the two sides were too far apart, so Xia De turned directly into a young silver cat and fell from the sky. The giant spirit only saw the forest under the moon.
After landing smoothly with the help of Feather Fall, Shade quickly said to the hunter and the doctor:
"The Wish Demon - Zatanna, it looks like it has been controlled by the Paradox Bug and is now heading towards the city."
He then explained that he had completed the demon summoning this morning and planned to meet the demon tomorrow.
"Are you also making a deal with the devil?"
The hunter asked in surprise, but Shade really didn't want to answer this question:
"It may be revenged by that ancient evil being. But this is not the key point now. Doctor, do you have a way to defeat this demon?"
But the doctor was clearly not doing well now. He had only said before that he would be unable to move for a period of time after the ceremony. But now, not only was he unable to move, he looked as if he had just recovered from a serious illness:
"I'm sorry, I may not be able to help you this time. I don't know what kind of power it has now after being controlled by the paradox worm. I only know that when it was still a complete evil demon, any attack method that did not contain elements and spirits, even a bomb that could destroy an entire city, could not harm it.
As a formless being, its spiritual attacks are not very effective. Even your moonlight may not constitute a very effective attack.
Apart from using the oath trap to make it self-restrained, only the power of the soul can really hurt it. But it cannot be the soul power of infection and control, as it is very resistant. Detective, do you have a direct attack method for the soul?"
"This"
[Mind Blast], [Soul Whip] and [Thorn of Eros] all count as such of course, but the former is mainly aimed at physical life, the middle one has no attack power at all, and the latter is clearly a "soul infection" type of magic.
Several beams of light appeared in the distant night sky, and Shad guessed that the ring wizards in the city had begun to fight back.
"Then, doctor, do you know what the [Crystal Bottle that Catches the Wind] is? I saw from the remaining advice just now that this item is very effective against it."
"It is indeed effective. The reason why Zatanna, the Demon of Wishes, became a relic was because he was trapped by the wish trap and sealed in the [Wind-Crystal Bottle]. Then, when the era changed, he merged with the relic and was no longer a demon."
The hunter answered the question, and Shade sighed:
"So this information is outdated? Well, doctor, I'll wait until your condition stabilizes before I go back. Since I can't help you now, let the church solve the problem. Although there were some accidents this morning, the church's combat effectiveness has not been reduced."
As he said this, he helped the doctor walk towards the moved cabin. The cabin must be in a mess now.
The hunter shadow, which still did not disappear, asked when Shade bent down to pick up the book:
"Aren't you going to take care of that demon?"
Shade shook his head:
"That should be considered a relic, not a demon, and I can't help you. Don't worry, this is no longer the Third Age, and the power of human civilization is very strong. You will never guess the number of thirteen rings in the city now. I am not a thirteen ring, so there is no need to take all the responsibility on myself. That's called being a hero."
The stranger spoke very rationally, and the doctor also agreed with Xia De's idea, mainly because he didn't want Xia De to take risks. After all, this time it was not really a demon.
"Compared to that blue giant, I'm actually more curious. The doctor's ritual has ended, why haven't you disappeared yet?"
Xia De continued to support the doctor and walked towards the cabin, while the expressionless hunter followed behind them:
"New hunters are often still very immature. According to the characteristics of the book, I will follow the young hunters for a period of time until they grow up. This is also to prevent the inheritance from being completely cut off."
He did not persuade Xia De to go over there to help, but asked:
"Speaking of which, do you know that Zatanna, the Devil of Wishes, is the most special among all the demons?"
Xia De shook his head, but the doctor knew:
"He's ancient."
"Doctor, you have used the term 'ancient demon' to describe many of our enemies. For example, the Stone Mirror Demon - Goethe, and the Human Pus, have both received similar evaluations."
"But the Devil of Wishes - Zatanna, may be older than the two you mentioned."
The hunter said, and Shad was very surprised, and he stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the wooden house. The situation inside the door was slightly better than he thought. Although the doctor's bottles and jars were overturned, at least most of the furniture was still in place, and the fire in the fireplace did not set the house on fire.
Lighting a fire in a cabin was inherently dangerous, so the doctor cast a spell on the fireplace so that it would not break even if the house was turned upside down.
"They are all ancient? Speaking of which, the concept of 'demons can make wishes' does appear more widely in fairy tales and legends. It can even be said that Zatanna, the Devil of Wishes, is the most famous demon in the material world."
As Xia De said this, he helped the doctor to the bed and then went to pour him some tea.
Hunter stood beside the chair at the table that Shade had just helped him up, and confirmed his idea:
"Yes, and our research in the Third Age shows that the first demon, the most ancient evil spirit, appeared in the form of 'I can fulfill your wish'."
Xia De turned his head suddenly:
"Don't tell me, that blue guy outside is actually part of the Demon King."
"Absolutely not, I can guarantee that."
The weak doctor immediately denied it, and the hunter certainly didn't mean that:
"The power and characteristics of Zatanna, the Devil of Wish, are consistent with the records of the original demon. Although this is not very rigorous, the appearance of Zatanna, the Devil of Wish, is very likely related to the oldest evil demon."
“I don’t deny the idea.”
The doctor lying on the bed also explained weakly:
"Detective, have you ever thought about how the evil spirits and demons were born? We can now be sure that this group definitely did not give birth to many individuals at the same time, but rather one was born first, and then there were many."
Hunter added:
"Although the time span is unknown now, there is a saying that after the first evil spirit appeared at some point in the First Age, its existence polluted the world, causing more terrible things to appear in this world. And the era when those things appeared in large numbers was the Third Age when I was still alive.
But there is another theory that in addition to naturally born evil spirits, the oldest demon also used its own power to create similar terrible things. If this theory is correct, then the more similar the characteristics of the oldest evil spirit in the rumor are, the older the demon is in theory. "
Xia De reached into the kettle that was heating in the fireplace, and the flames rose suddenly, quickly heating the water. After doing all this, he picked up the kettle, opened the overturned tea can beside him, found the teacup that fell on the ground, rinsed it, and poured tea into it:
"Then, Doctor, when you were at Green Lake, didn't you ask it about the secret of its birth?"
"No evil spirit would talk about the reason for its birth. This question cannot be asked."
The doctor helped the bed sit up, thanked Shade and took the teacup. After Shade finished, he turned his head and looked at the window. Of course, he couldn't see the battlefield in the distance from this position. The church should have used illusions to cover up the sound and light. Although Shade said that he didn't need him, he was still very worried.
"I took the initiative to talk about the origin of the demon because I wanted to explain one thing."
Hunter concluded:
"Even if there is an ancient evil in this forest, it certainly cannot be easily controlled, let alone completely controlled by those bugs. So I am almost certain that as long as it is stimulated enough, it will wake up on its own."
"So you still want me to help over there?"
Xia De asked suspiciously. The hunter still had no expression on his face. In fact, he had never shown any expression on his face since he appeared:
"It is almost impossible to stimulate such a powerful evil spirit. A basic common sense is that evil spirits and demons have no souls. They only have their own essences and bodies. Therefore, although ordinary soul-killing spells are effective against them, they cannot be considered a big stimulation."
"You're not going to tell me that you're going to teach me a new magic, are you? Do I need to remind you? The one who received the witcher's inheritance is the one on the bed next to you. I'm just here to help."
