Chapter 940: The dead return
Click...
Accompanied by a slight sound, the claws used to fix the crystal on the disc were loosened, and the resurrection stone floated in the air under the traction of magic, slowly rotating three times.
Ivan hesitated for a while, gently pressed the human bone wand against his temple, and drew a few memories from it, and then held the resurrection stone in his palm.
The next moment, a few familiar figures appeared in front of Ivan.
Albus Dumbledore, Nicol LeMay, Orlando Hals... these people have very gentle smiles on their faces. They are different from the ghosts that Ivan has ever seen, but are more inclined to Tangible living person.
It is as if the power of the resurrection stone allowed them to cross life and death and return to the world of living people again.
"Halse...it seems that you have used the alchemy knowledge I taught you to create a magic stone of your own..." Nicol Lemay glanced at the alchemy decoration on Ivan's right hand and said with great relief.
"I'm sorry, sir, I failed to protect your graveyard." A slightly apologetic expression appeared on Ivan's face.
"No, what you have done is good enough. When I brought the resurrection stone into the cemetery, I expected something similar to happen..." Nicole LeMay shook his head, said relievedly, and then looked back. Dumbledore said jokingly. "If you really need to find someone to complain, you should also blame Albus..."
Ivan also turned his head and looked over.
"I can't blame me, after all, I didn't let him break into your tomb." Dumbledore's face showed a bit of helplessness, then he turned his voice, looked at Ivan, and asked. "How is Grindelwald now?"
"Thanks to you, he successfully escaped from Newmontgard Prison, and is now preparing to cause more trouble." Ivan raised his eyebrows and explained.
"So he doesn't intend to keep the promise..." Dumbledore muttered to himself, but it didn't seem surprising.
"What exactly is your agreement? Professor?" Ivan asked curiously.
"I need him to help complete the final layout. In exchange, I removed all restrictions on Grindelwald to make him more comfortable for the rest of his life..." Dumbledore said slowly.
"Is it just that? Nothing else?" Ivan frowned and asked again.
Dumbledore just smiled and did not answer.
Ivan wanted to continue to ask, but Orlando walked up slowly. He tremblingly stretched out his right hand as if he wanted to touch the top of Ivan's head, but when he touched it, he passed it directly.
Obviously, the resurrection stone did not give them entities, and their figure was still illusory, but on the surface it looked like a normal person.
Orlando probably realized this too, put his hand back in disappointment, and asked sadly. "Ivan, my child, I'm sorry, I'm not a good father. I haven't been able to take care of you in these years. How are you?"
"Not bad, I'm having a good life, and so is my mother..." Yi Fan replied calmly.
"Yeah, you are much better than I thought...you have also become a disciple of Master Nico LeMay, so Aesia has taught you well, but...this is nothing like her I know. Ah." Orlando said half-jokingly, and then asked with interest about Ivan's experience over the years.
Ivan tried his best to pick out those convenient to speak, and Dumbledore stood quietly beside him, just listening, without interrupting Ivan's words.
Time passed unconsciously, and when Ivan said something dry and dry, he suddenly realized that the sky outside had dimmed, which means that he had been in the room for four or five hours.
"What's the matter, Ivan?" Orlando asked, seeing Ivan in a daze.
"No, nothing, just suddenly remembered something." Ivan shook his head, hesitated for a while, then turned to look at Nicol LeMay. "Teacher, my alchemy has entered a bottleneck period. Can you teach me some new knowledge?"
"You haven't finished reading the two books I gave you? Hals? Learning is a good thing, but you must also remember to be greedy and not chew..." Nicole LeMay replied freely.
"What I want to ask is the question in that book, the conjecture about the efficiency of magic power conversion..." Ivan asked nonchalantly.
"This requires you to explore it yourself, always rely on others to answer, but you can't become a real alchemist." Nicol LeMay replied with a smile.
Ivan looked at Nicole LeMay for a long time, and finally sighed faintly, and waved his magic wand to collect the memory that had been separated before.
As the forgotten memories were retrieved, the three figures in front of them changed slightly, especially Orlando. They looked like a different person. The image was quickly moving closer to what he remembered, but Orlando itself Without realizing it, there was still a faint smile on his face.
Seeing this scene, Ivan didn’t miss it anymore. Amidst the voices of Orlando and others, he slowly loosened the resurrection stone, and the three figures gradually disappeared in the air.
"It's a pity...this is false after all." Ivan stared at the diamond-shaped crystal suspended in mid-air, feeling very complicated.
The resurrection stone can't really resurrect the dead, it's just the appearance of the dead in the subconscious.
It is to confirm this, UU reading www. uukanshu.com, before activating the resurrection stone, he stripped out the relevant memories of Orlando's image to confirm his guess.
The result is consistent with Ivan's expectations. The resurrection stone finally manifests, which is the most suitable image of Orlando in his fantasy. Therefore, the appearance of the other party will only change after retrieving the memory.
However, after experiencing it personally, Ivan also understood why so many people fell under the power of the resurrection stone, because these manifested illusions not only look the same as the deceased, but also their behavior and speech are very consistent with memory. The image of each other in China, even jokingly blames each other.
If Ivan hadn't been wary of it, I'm afraid he would have thought that he had really summoned the souls of Orlando and others from the underworld.
In fact, Ivan indeed hopes that the resurrection stone can possess such great power, so after activating the resurrection stone, he did not retrieve the memory immediately, but wanted to confirm this through communication, even if there is only a slight possibility. .
However, Ivan was disappointed in the end result.
Although the illusions are very well-disguised, they can even be said to be perfect, everything is in line with his subconscious assumptions, for a moment Ivan almost took it seriously, but there is only one thing that cannot be created out of thin air. Is knowledge...
