Chapter 29 Mechanical Pill, Holy Power, the era of creation-type mages is about to begin!
Tokyo, suburbs, a hidden underground room.
The mechanical pill, wrapped in bandages, had half of its body submerged in a pool full of medicine, surrounded by IV bottles and mechanical parts.
As a sorcerer known as "Heavenly Curse," he sacrificed his body to obtain the extremely powerful and wide-ranging technique, "Puppet Manipulation." His strength rivals that of a near-first-level sorcerer, making him a standout among the younger generation of sorcerers.
however.
For Mechanical Maru, he would rather be an ordinary person without magical powers than live such inhuman torture in the dark and hopeless world.
Because of the "Heavenly Curse," he lost his right arm, and his entire body below the waist lost sensation. His skin was so fragile that even moonlight could burn his entire body, and he could only barely maintain his life with the help of medicine.
If only he could run and breathe in the sunshine, and meet the girl he loves in person.
Mechanical Maru is willing to pay any price.
Do you know what's happening outside?
However, today, an uninvited guest arrived at the secluded underground chamber of the Machine Maru.
Lu Ping.
He transformed a fragment of his soul into a clone, standing smiling in front of the mechanical pill, showing no fear that the other party would sound the alarm and notify a powerful figure like Gojo Satoru to annihilate him.
Because he had already acquired a sufficiently large stake.
It was so large that even a mechanical ball couldn't possibly refuse.
"The Great Age of Spellcasting has begun. Spellcasters wreak havoc in Tokyo, and countless people who have gained power begin to fight..."
"As the instigator of all this chaos, you didn't come to see me today just to chat, did you, Holy Spirit?"
Mechanical Pill slowly sat up in the medicinal pool, his face showing an indescribable weariness and heaviness. Every time he spoke, it was a great burden for him.
"I can heal your body, Mechanical Pill."
Lu Ping didn't waste any words. He stared calmly at the mechanical ball and said with a smile.
In that instant, time seemed to stand still.
Mechanical Maru's pupils contracted instantly, and the magical power around his body began to surge uncontrollably. The fatigue and heaviness on his face vanished in an instant, replaced by a wild joy of escaping from a desperate situation.
for a long time.
He forced down his inner excitement and trembling, and asked calmly.
"What do you want me to do?"
Mechanical Maru didn't ask for reasons, didn't ask for justifications, and didn't even consider discussing the price with Lu Ping.
Because no matter the cost, he couldn't refuse the deal.
"It's simple. Help me spread these seeds of magical power to farther places. I want the wave of the 'Great Age of Spells' to come even more fiercely."
With a wave of his right hand, Lu Ping unleashed tens of thousands of "Curse Power Seeds" from the spell [Gensokyo], which landed in front of the machine gun.
Looking at these, conservatively estimated, more than 100,000 curse seeds, Mechanical Maru's pupils dilated in shock once again.
He swallowed hard several times, his brain racing, but in the end he could only shake his head with difficulty and say bitterly.
"I can't do it."
"Although my techniques can cover the entire country of Japan, the number of puppets I can control at the same time is also limited."
"Even if I worked tirelessly day and night, I couldn't have spread so many seeds all over Japan before Mr. Gojo Satoru found out."
Yes.
Lu Ping found Mechanical Pill because he valued its extremely long-range spell coverage.
In the world of sorcery today, only the "Defy of Heaven and Tyrant" Gakukimaru can spread the influence of his spells throughout Japan. Even Gojo Satoru and Ryomen Sukuna cannot do this.
"Hahaha, you underestimate yourself, Machine Maru."
however.
To the surprise of Mechanical Maru, Lu Ping did not show any anger or mockery when faced with his rejection.
Instead, he laughed heartily, grabbed a seed brimming with positive energy from the air with his right hand, and placed it in his palm.
"Have you ever thought about what the true nature of a sorcerer is?"
"The essence of a sorcerer?"
Mechanical Maru shook his head in confusion, completely baffled as to why Lu Ping had suddenly shifted the topic to this.
"A sorcerer, as the name suggests, is someone who uses cursed power as a source to cast spells."
"The so-called 'cursed power' also originates from negative emotions. When countless negative emotions come together, they unleash powerful cursed power."
"Therefore, in the world of sorcery, the vast majority of the strongest individuals at the top will eventually develop their abilities in the 'destructive' direction."
Upon hearing Lu Ping's words, Mechanical Maru was slightly taken aback.
Thinking about it carefully, it does seem to be true.
Whether it's Gojo Satoru, the "strongest in modern times," or Ryoumen Sukuna, the "King of Curses" who once struck fear into the hearts of many, their signature moves are all extremely powerful destructive techniques.
The [No Limit] technique is originally a neutral "power of stopping", but the "Azure", "Hell", and the virtual "Zi" developed by Gojo Satoru all extend in the direction of destruction.
【Michuko】 goes without saying; it's pure slashing, pure destruction and annihilation, with absolutely no positive aspect whatsoever.
Besides, the other top-tier sorcerers are also going further and further down the path of destruction.
Whether it's the unlimited increase in the apparent mass, the creation of black holes, or the possession of the spell "Star's Wrath" by Tsukumo Yuki;
It's still the same ability, controlling the shikigami Rika and unleashing the Pure Love Curse Cannon.
Or perhaps it is Xia Youjie, who possesses the technique [Spirit Manipulation Technique], but whose ultimate move is still to condense all the spirits and release the concentrated spirit cannon.
Everyone seems to be heading further and further in the direction of "powerful bricks flying" and "destruction and annihilation".
"The essence of [cursed power] is destruction, slaughter, and negative emotions."
"This kind of negative energy is inherently incompatible with you who possess positive 'creative' techniques."
"Therefore, whether it's you, Miwa Kasumi, Zenin Shin'i, or even the principal of the Jujutsu High School, Yagami Masamichi is quite weak."
"It's not because you're not capable enough, but because you're inherently incompatible with curse power. Even with a powerful talent like 'Defying Heaven and Binding Curse,' you're still far from the pure physical body system of Heaven and Tyrant. The difference in strength is more than one order of magnitude."
"but."
Lu Ping shook the positive energy seed in his hand, a wicked smile curling at the corner of his mouth. He raised his voice considerably and shouted.
"What if we replaced the [cursed power] in your bodies, which is formed from negative emotions, with [holy power], which is formed from positive emotions?"
Mechanical Maru's expression froze.
Having been a sorcerer for so many years, this was the first time he had ever heard the term "holy power".
"Driven by [Holy Power], every puppet you create will be imbued with life by your own hands, and your control over them, as well as their inherent strength, will be greatly enhanced!"
"Furthermore, [Holy Power] is naturally suited for developing creation-type spell abilities. Originally, you could only develop 'Puppet Manipulation' into inefficient abilities like 'Curse Power Cannon,' but now, it can spawn countless branches, such as floating cannons, space fortresses, and even giants formed from condensed Holy Power, and so on!"
"Furthermore, after you replace it with [Holy Power], your already enormous total amount of curse power will increase even more, because 'Defying Heaven and Binding' is a kind of binding that deprives you of life force in exchange for power. [Holy Power] is the most suitable power for this kind of binding, and it is much more compatible than curse power."
Every word Lu Ping said resonated deep within Mechanical Maru's heart, causing his breathing to quicken and his anticipation to grow stronger.
Theoretically speaking, Lu Ping's suggestion is indeed feasible.
The reversal of magical energy, the "Reversal Technique," can heal all injuries. Its immense life energy is undoubtedly well-suited for creative magicians.
The problem is that there are very few people in the world of sorcery who can use the reversal technique. Even geniuses like Gojo Satoru can only master that power after experiencing life and death. Even so, they can only temporarily reverse the sorcery power into positive energy and cannot maintain it for a long time.
The man in front of me.
Can he really do what he said?
Faced with the last shred of rationality that Mechanical Maru had left, Lu Ping did not hesitate. He simply smiled and crushed it completely with his captivating words.
"Mechanical pellet".
"Holy power is also the source of restoring the physical body."
