Demon Lord Priest II

v3 Chapter 32: Legacy of the Past (Part 2)

"Wait!" It was too late to think too much. When Ulysses walked into his father's workplace, the Quicksilver Sword immediately followed. The dancing of the black and white skirt gave a little girl's vitality to the place that had remained the same for many years.

It's not just this place, the entire city, the countless buildings that have been irresistibly abandoned in the long river of time, when Ulysses walked into this place, it seemed that there were subtle changes.

At the bottom of the already dried-up fountain, I don’t know when a water stain appeared: in the huā garden where only the powder-like wreckage remained, a small piece of nèn bud quietly drilled out: the sky represents several other sleeping roses. The girl's star also began to emit a brighter light than before.

The whole world, the whole world, seems to be slowly waking up: after going through the dark winter for too long, this fantasy land floating in the interdimensional space is gradually recovering its original function.

However, since such a change was too subtle, neither Ulysses nor the Quicksilver Sword found it.

After walking through the slightly dilapidated wooden stairs, Norisis finally arrived at his destination, where the legendary unknown puppet master used to work.

Without extra walls, the entire second floor is a room, a studio for making dolls. In the position against the wall, there are many old books. Judging from the signs on the spines, they are all ancient characters that Ulysses does not know.

In the center of the room is a long table with many strange tools. The scissors with threads, the three-pronged knives, and the combs made of unknown bones are all special props that laymen don't know how to use in their hands.

However, Ulysses, who also aspires to become a puppet master at this moment, is naturally an exception. He knows the usage of each tool here, and has specially customized a few of them for the Chamber of Commerce in the City of Glory.

However, compared to the tools that can be regarded as antiques here, the ones he ordered for a lot of money are simply rubbish.

"This is" Ulysses picked up one of the scissors, and as soon as he got it, he found that the weight of the scissors was unusual, probably more than ten times that of steel.

And just by holding the scissors in the palm of his hand, a cold feeling swept through Ulysses' palm, and he was easily connected with his magic power.

Ulysses gently stroked with the scissors, and a white dotted line immediately appeared in the air. Although there was nothing there, Ulysses was sure that even a set of hard steel plate armor would be cut off by this white dotted line.

Although it is not as good as the "dead line" that he holds to divide all things, there are probably very few materials in this world that these scissors keep cutting.

"Cutting and Separation Series" Ulysses didn't recognize just this pair of scissors, but a series of tools randomly placed here like ordinary tools.

This is the name of a legendary set of Noble Phantasms passed down among alchemists. As a Noble Phantasm, most of them are separate individuals, but there are also very few series of equipment, and the legendary "Cut and Separation" dedicated to alchemists. It is a masterpiece among non-combat Noble Phantasms.

This is a set of extremely high-quality Noble Phantasms, each of which has incredible special abilities.

However, no one knows who the maker of this series is, and there is no record even what material this Noble Phantasm was made from.

However, now Ulysses knew who used this Noble Phantasm. Because they are now lying quietly in front of him waiting for his debugging.

There are a total of thirteen Noble Phantasms, each of which has a separate special ability. The combination of the thirteen pieces is the dream of all alchemists, but has long since disappeared from history.

As far as the non-combat Noble Phantasm is concerned, this series has become an ancient legend, a myth that can no longer be replicated.

This extremely special Noble Phantasm is not even in the Babylonian treasury held by the Heroic Spirit King Yuke, and it is not something that money can buy. Ulysses hadn't even thought that he would have the opportunity to use a tool of this level.

Ulysses was sure he could use them after trying out the entire "Cut and Separation Series" in his hands. Although there was no experience in using the Noble Phantasm before, these Noble Phantasms born for work obviously did not exclude his manipulation.

Even when using them, Ulysses can feel a very comfortable feeling, and it seems that even his fingers are a lot more flexible.

As a result, the sudden vision of creation swept through Ulysses' entire body, and the urge to create something was as strong as it was when he obtained the knowledge of making dolls, and it was unstoppable.

Taking a quick look around the studio, Ulysses found some leftover materials in the corner.

Naturally, these materials are not qualified to use to make "Alice", but now the impulse in Ulysses' heart has been suppressed, so he just put them on the table.

After ten cuts. These random materials are cut into parts with different uses.

"You" Quicksilver Sword looked at Ulysses at work with wonderful eyes. At this moment, Ulysses' back and the figure she remembered in the past had a subtle overlap.

"First of all, the body." Ulysses has completely forgotten that there are people around watching 1

He concentrated on cutting the largest part of the material. He didn't need to use his hands to take the shape-shaping knife in the "Cutting and Separation Series", and it came into his hands, cutting the half-human-high material into shape with the dancing of his fingers.

"Hands and feet." This is the part Ulysses has done the most recently.

After proficiently processing the prototype, he took out the prepared gem liquid from the dark dimension space and sprinkled it evenly on the carved hands and feet. Since he did not pursue the highest degree of fusion, there was no explosion this time.

"Joints for connection.

"Put a few pieces of rough spherical material into a round ball, and flick a few times with your fingers, and the smooth joint ball is formed.

The exercise during this period is not meaningless. Although it is impossible to do a near-perfect hand, Ulysses has mastered most of the basic skills of making dolls.

The rest have gone beyond the level of pure manual skills, and what is needed is a breakthrough at the level of alchemy. After all, what Ulysses wants to make is not just a doll for viewing, but "Alice" that goes beyond the Rose Maiden series.

When Ulysses stopped, on the table in front of him, a puppet with beautiful black hair, slender hands and feet, and even the smallest parts of the body were carved to life.

The fly in the ointment is that although the body parts are perfectly sculpted, Ulysses did not make a face for the doll.

"Is it just like this?" The Quicksilver Sword didn't think it was a big deal, even though the skills Ulysses showed just now were not bad.

However, that is only a level that ordinary humans can achieve after training, and using the "cutting and separation series" used by my father to make a doll of this level is simply a disgrace to this Noble Phantasm.

"Well, that's enough." Ulysses wiped the sweat from his forehead, and it took more energy to create this doll than he thought.

Especially the last "connection" part requires him to concentrate all of his energy. If there is no help from the "cutting and separation series", I am afraid that he has failed.

"You don't even have eyes, are you really doing it seriously?" Quicksilver Sword looked at the doll whose face was blank.

For a puppet, the eye part is the most important part of the body, and the eyes are the windows to the human soul. This rule also applies to puppets. It can even be said that the charm of the eyes occupies half of the total charm of the doll.

A doll without a face is a half-finished product no matter how you look at it.

"No need for eyes, because this is not a puppet for viewing, but" Ulysses hesitated a little, not knowing how to explain in detail.

At his current level, this is the highest-level doll he can make at the moment. Although there is a gap of 108,000 miles from the Rose Girl, this is indeed his finished product.

It doesn't have the spirit, nor does it have the ability to act on its own, but this kind of puppet is like this, and it doesn't need anything other than the determined sex.

It's imperfect, it's flawed, but that's what it's meant to be.

"In the name of Astaroth" The dark runes drifted around Ulysses, and a trace of gold flashed in his eyes.

Using a knife to slash...his own finger, Ulysses popped out a drop of his own blood. Jin Sè's blood was smoothly integrated into the talisman formed by the gem liquid on the blank doll.

Feeling the breath of Astaroth's blood, these runes representing the dark secret arts were like mì bees smelling the fragrance of huā, and they all rushed towards the blank-faced puppets lying on the table.

"My family, give you a reward!" Ulysses summoned the dark book of the Demon King and opened a page.

"Go, Shaggy."

An illusory shadow flew out of the Devil's Book, and flew into the blank doll's body obediently according to Ulysses' orders.

Then, the original blank face of the doll began to slowly deform, and finally turned into a cute and curious girl's face.

"Yeah!" The cheerful Sha Ji manipulated her new body little by little, crawling towards Ulysses.

"It looks like it should be a success." Ulysses closed the book of the devil, looked at the second experimental doll he made, and extended his hand to her. ! .
