Two-hundred-year-old Demon God descendants?
Minori was somewhat surprised that these demi-human sisters had such a background.
The so-called "Demon Gods", according to speculation, are a large number of monsters, elite monsters, and even bosses that descended from the game, causing a catastrophe-like disaster to the entire other world. This is also the reason for the appearance of the "Thirteen Heroes".
The strength of these Demon Gods varies. The strong ones, such as the Demon Tree still sealed in the depths of the Tob Forest, are around level 85. They are called natural disasters, nearly destroying the world's Demon Kings, and so on. The weaker ones can also be eliminated by relying on human power, but even if their strength is low, the Demon Gods are all above level 36, surpassing the hero realm.
Recalling the information about "Demon Gods" in his mind.
Minori looked at the trembling twin demon witches.
Their skin was pale and thin, and their faces could be seen as female, but their pointed ears and slightly ferocious appearance really did not conform to human aesthetics.
Of course, compared to appearance.
What Minori really cared about was that these monsters that descended from the game actually had offspring and bloodlines left behind.
Since the Six Great Gods, the Eight Greed Kings, and others also have offspring, it is not incomprehensible that monsters leave behind bloodlines.
However!
If this is not an isolated case, then the water in this world may be deeper.
Minori's eyes flashed, and he suddenly thought of the Forest Wise King Hamsuke, who he killed. The other party's appearance characteristics were also a bit unlike the monsters of this world. Could it also be a bloodline of those Demon Gods?
Under the gray-robed mage's unreserved explanation, he explained in detail the method of making "Frogman Eggs".
Just as Minori had guessed at the beginning, the method of making a complete "Frogman Egg" is extremely cumbersome, and the failure rate is frighteningly high.
It not only requires the special refining techniques mastered by the gray-robed mage, but also the cooperation of the twin demon witches' alchemy.
The fundamental purpose of the gray-robed mage in making "Frogman Eggs" was only to lure out Quaiesse and then kill him for revenge agains the Slane Theocracy.
As for the rhetoric of using Quaiesse's innate abilities, it was just false information deliberately revealed to confuse Quaiesse.
Minori also learned from the gray-robed mage's answer about Quaiesse's "innate ability", which is the ability to increase the favorability of monsters, and even forcibly control monsters.
"No wonder he can control Kuro." A trace of understanding flashed in Minori's eyes.
Compared to the skills or abilities provided by professions, some powerful "innate abilities" are really unreasonable.
All the members who can join [Black Scripture] are, Minori speculated, in addition to their own strong strength and talent, should also have very excellent innate abilities.
As for the grievances between the gray-robed mage and Quaiesse or the Slane Theocracy.
Minori was originally not interested, but he unexpectedly learned an unknown fact.
The gray-robed mage's sister is actually the previous Earth Shrine Maiden!
In the Slane Theocracy, in addition to the more famous Six Color Scripture troops, there are also six shrine maidens belonging to the Six Great Temples.
Each shrine maiden, in conjunction with special magic props, can hold large ritual magic, so that they can use higher-level magic that far exceeds their own level.
However, these special magic props are not available to anyone. They require special talents or even "innate abilities" to use.
The Slane Theocracy itself has mastered the magic that can detect the "innate abilities" of others. It is not too difficult to find those suitable adapters among more than 15 million nationals.
Fortunately!
The gray-robed mage's sister is such an adapter, and the other party also thought so at first.
But the result——
Minori shook his head gently, watching the dazed and controlled gray-robed mage.
Things that fall from the sky require a price.
How could it be possible to not pay a price for jumping from an ordinary person to one of the six great temples, the highly respected Shrine Maiden.
If Minori remembers correctly, the future Clementine is the one who seized the "Crown of the Sage" of the Dark Shrine Maiden and defected from the Slane Theocracy.
The Dark Shrine Maiden who lost the "Crown of the Sage" went directly crazy. This "crazy" is really crazy.
Because the "Crown of the Sage" can strip the user's consciousness and completely turn them into a tool that only activates magic. The effects of the other shrine maidens'"Crown of the Sage" are probably similar.
What to do with the shrine maiden who went crazy after losing the "Crown of the Sage"?
Or rather, what should be done with the previous shrine maiden when a new shrine maiden needs to be replaced?
It's very simple. This involves one of the main tasks of [Black Scripture], which is to send these crazy shrine maidens to the side of the gods.
The gray-robed mage naturally does not know the existence of [Black Scripture], nor does he know that Quaiesse is a member of this scripture.
The most important reason why the other party approached Quaiesse was because his sister was taken away by Quaiesse's father.
"Tell me everything you know about your 'Zurrernorn'." After a brief silence, Minori continued to ask.
The gray-robed mage's matter is not easy to evaluate.
When the other party first mentioned the Slane Theocracy's "human race supremacy", Minori could not understand the sarcastic tone at the time,
but now he has some understanding.
Many things are different when viewed from the perspective of the collective and the perspective of the individual.
Minori always felt that he was just an ordinary person who had mastered power, but everything he has experienced during this period.
has made his views on some things no longer limited to the simple concepts of right and wrong, good and evil in the eyes of ordinary people.
In his previous life, whether in novels or anime, some strong people always mentioned the four words "stick to your heart". At that time, he didn't think so, but now Minori increasingly feels the importance of these four words.
Especially in the complex situation of various races and human environments in the other world, if you indulge too much in the simple concepts of "right and wrong, good and evil", you will soon fall into confusion.
"Our 'Zurrernorn' has twelve members—————
The gray-robed mage's voice without emotional fluctuations sounded.
Minori frowned slightly, not because he had learned any amazing information, but because the information he had learned was only a little more than his.
According to the other party's meaning, the identities of each of the twelve members are very mysterious. Except for the leader, probably no one knows the past identities of each of them.
The only thing that is a bit useful is the information about the leader of "Zurrernorn". The gray-robed mage guessed that the other party is likely from the Slane Theocracy, and even had a relatively high position in the Slane Theocracy.
"Forget it, although the information is limited, at least I won't be completely ignorant when facing 'Zurrernorn'."
After Minori recorded this information, he signaled the gray-robed mage to say all the magic he had mastered.
He has already learned about the gray-robed mage's profession, the basic magic-type profession magician, evil warlock, and the holy-type priest.
The three basic professions still belong to the type that has not been constructed, and it is no wonder that he is not Quaiesse's opponent.
[Skill Points: 68→67]
Skill: Magic Mark (Second Tier)
Consumption: 10MP
Introduction: Consumes magic power to leave a special magic mark on the other party, which can sense the location of the other party.
Minori finally chose a second-tier"Evil Warlock" magic to obtain this basic profession.
Although the gray-robed mage is a magic caster in the hero-level realm, due to the problem of professional construction, he can only use fourth-tier magic at most.
Among the magic mastered by the other party, there are many that made his eyes light up, but there is nothing worth learning. This second-tier magic in front of him does not seem to be of much use.
But it is related to the means of making "Frogman Eggs".
Glancing at the information on the attribute panel.
[Attribute Table]
Player: Minori Justice Value: 23 [Neutral]
HP: 373→388 (30%)

Minori simply glanced at the normal changes in the basic values. The focus of his attention was the change in specialty, which increased by 30 points all at once.
This magnitude of increase is obviously related to the job change of [Mad Magician].
"Is it a passive skill?" Minori was thoughtful.
He didn't get too entangled in this issue.
What is really giving him a headache at the moment is how to deal with the gray-robed mage and Queynese.
"You should have heard the conversation just now, now————." Minori turned his head to look at the twin demon witches next to him, but before he could finish his words.
The Verdant Witch and the Mist Witch had already bent down and prostrated on the ground at the same time, and said with trembling voices: "We are willing to submit."
"Okay."
Minori nodded expressionlessly: "Clean up this destroyed area. With your two abilities, you should be able to restore it to its original state."
The twin demon witches both have the profession of forest priest, and manipulating plant growth is not a complicated matter.
After speaking,
Minori raised his hand and used "Magic Mark" on the twin demon witches respectively. With this magic, even if the twin demon witches wanted to escape, he could determine their location.
As the twin demon witches left in fear.
Minori refocused his gaze on the unconscious Quaiesse.
Bang!
He knocked the gray-robed mage unconscious with a hand knife.
Then.
Minori woke Quaiesse from his coma and used the "Charm" magic again to control him.
"Is there a way to isolate 'Resurrection Magic' in the Slane Theocracy?" Minori looked at the controlled and dazed Quaiesse and asked seriously.
Since special methods such as resurrection magic have existed for a long time, Minori does not believe that the various forces in this world have not conducted corresponding research.
Since even the leader of "Zurrernorn" can research and transform the "Resurrection of the Dead" magic.
Minori does not believe that the Slane Theocracy has no corresponding research.
"To prevent the 'Resurrection of the Dead', you only need to severely damage the corpse." Quaiesse's voice was stiff.
"Besides that?" Hearing this nonsense, Minori took a breath and asked again.
However, this time, Quaiesse did not answer immediately, even under the effect of "Charm", he became somewhat hesitant.
Instead, Minori's eyes lit up.
"Isolation magic."
"You only need to isolate the influence of magic to resist resurrection magic—the easiest way to do this is to have a powerful monster swallow the living."
"The power possessed by the monster itself will further hinder and isolate the influence of 'Resurrection Magic', but the monster's strength must be high, at least surpassing the hero——-realm to be possible."
A trace of struggle appeared on Quaiesse's dazed face, to the point that even the tone of his speech became intermittent.
Seeing Quaiesse's state at the moment.
Minori's pupils shrank, which was obviously a situation where he was about to forcibly break free from the "Charm" state.
"Can you break free from the influence of charm with your own will?" Minori's face showed surprise, and he quickly waved his arm and knocked Quaiesse unconscious again.
"Using powerful monsters to isolate resurrection magic, there is actually such a way." Looking at Quaiesse who had fallen into a coma again, Minori fell into deep thought.
Powerful monsters are easy to find.
In the Angelicia Mountains, there is a giant fish-like monster with a level of about 47Lv and a body length of more than 50 meters, the Lava Dominator.
The question is, does this method really work?
Ordinary resurrection magic may work, but what about more advanced resurrection magic?
In addition.
Quaiesse's state just now was also a bit suspicious. With the other party's extremely weak physical condition at the moment, he was actually able to rely on his will to break free from the influence of "Charm".
This is obviously a bit abnormal.
Wait!
Minori's eyes narrowed. He suddenly remembered that the Slane Theocracy seemed to have implanted some kind of special magic in the minds of the members of the various scriptures.
Under certain circumstances, as long as you answer the other party's three questions, you will die directly.
Captain Nigen, who was captured by Bone King, and most of the members of the [Sunshine Scripture] died under the influence of this magic.
He had just asked Quaiesse what could be considered the second question. If he asked another question, Quaiesse would probably trigger this magic.
The ability of "Charm" is to make the other party treat you as a friend, and once your own life is threatened, the influence of charm cannot continue.
This is probably the reason why Quaiesse struggled.
"If that's the case, then it's a bit troublesome."
Thinking of this, a look of embarrassment flashed across Minori's face.
He originally wanted to extract information from Quaiesse. If there is the influence of this magic, it will not be possible to easily obtain information about the Slane Theocracy like the gray-robed mage.
"It's not that there is no way. If you use the means of resurrection, you should be able to continue to ask three new questions each time you resurrect."
Minori looked at the unconscious Quaiesse, and this thought flashed in his mind.
This naturally also means dealing with a tricky problem!
