Chapter Thirty(3/4)
Ruibo raised his head with difficulty, and saw a golden cloud drifting in the air.
This golden cloud is gradually taking shape and condensing.
It was originally just a thin layer of mist floating in the air, but now it is separating its hands, feet, body and head.
Ruibo looked at everything in front of him in surprise, and what he saw was a human figure that was becoming clearer and clearer.
Surprise even overshadows the fear of death.
But suffocation once again woke him up.
Ruibo didn't know how to deal with the current crisis.
It is completely different from those assassins, the magician at the identification ceremony, and the assassins sent by Count Robert.
The puppet in front of him is definitely his weapons and cannot be harmed at all.
The crossbow in his hand would definitely not deal with this lifeless thing, and the magic wand he had always used to defend himself and save his life was obviously also unable to act on this magical inhuman material.
The only thing that made Ribo feel thankful was that when he felt about to die from suffocation, the wind elves penetrated through his skin with a fresh air.
Although there was no trace of air in the lungs, the suffocation and dizziness gradually disappeared.
"Give me life, you promised me, why do you lie? Give me life, you liar."
A huge sound echoed in the laboratory.
Ruibo, whose neck was pinched, couldn't say anything. He didn't know if the teacher told him the danger was referring to this.
"I am not your original master, not the great magician Kaimiltidi." Rebow shouted in his heart. He didn't want to die so confused.
Although he had heard all kinds of extremely bizarre adventure stories from Mr. Hyde, he had never heard of such a ridiculous crisis.
Ruibo did not expect the puppet to hear the shouting in his heart, it was just his subconscious action.
Unexpectedly, the puppet heard all the things he didn't say.
Rebow felt the force that grabbed his neck gradually relaxed, and his body slowly landed on the ground.
"Aren't you Kai Miltidi? Not my original master?" asked the puppet.
Ruibo was so greedy that he was breathing. Although this was no longer necessary for him, his habits could not be changed for a while.
Fresh air poured into the lungs all at once, causing Ruibo's severe cough.
He even felt his lungs had been completely torn and then stitched up again, and it was so painful.
After he recovered a little, he looked at the puppet in front of him who had completely changed into a human form.
But the human figure had an indescribable strange feeling.
It had an old man's face, and Ribo guessed if that was what Kaimiltid looked like.
But the proportion and appearance of the limbs are like a baby.
What's more, its body is still changing, and it seems difficult to find a certain image.
"My creator has gone there, why are you trying to sign a contract with me now?" the golem growled.
"As long as it is a living thing, it will face death. Don't you know about this? Although Master Kaimiltidi is the greatest magician in the world, he still cannot get rid of this minimum law of life." Ruibo tried to let the golem understand its situation.
"Death? Yes, my creator did mention this thing, and he once said that it was something I could not understand at all. Because I am an eternal existence, even if this world is destroyed, I will not disappear." The voice of the golem became much lower.
"Can I become your new master?" Ruibo asked cautiously, after all, this was the purpose of his trip.
"Your strength is very weak. In the past, any magician I have ever seen is much stronger than you." The puppet said, and its tone was filled with disdain.
Ruibo was extremely surprised. He never thought that objects created through magic could have intelligence, think, and even have his own personality.
This is really unimaginable.
Rebow secretly praised himself that the great magician Kaimiltid is worthy of being the most powerful magician in the world and is able to create such a miracle.
"Now, I am also the weakest among magicians, because I am just a magic apprentice. I have been learning magic for a short time and have not accumulated enough power." Rebonnoun said. He did not want to leave a wrong impression on the puppet, thinking that the magicians in the world now have this kind of strength.
Of course, Ribo didn't know what kind of standards this puppet would use to measure the magicians of this world. If his standard was his creator Kaimiltidi, then most magicians might become magic apprentices in their eyes.
"Yes, I remember that you need to go through a long process of learning knowledge."
The golem said.
"Would you like me to be your new master?" Ruibo reiterated the old words.
"Can you realize my wish and give me real life?"
Rebow had some headaches, and he had never encountered such a bargaining puppet.
"Why do you want to have life? Isn't you very good at this? If you can live forever and become a living creature, you will inevitably face death."
Ribo tried to persuade the masterpiece of this greatest magician.
"I have intelligence, but without life, I am incomplete, and there is no existence of life, just like rocks and minerals. Such existences have little meaning. However, rocks and minerals are lucky to be unintellectable and unable to recognize themselves, but my creators give me the ability to think, I want to have life, I want to be truly complete."
Ruibo stared at the golden puppet in front of him in a daze. This mist-shaped elf was really a long-winded guy.
Ruibo is absolutely unsure of being able to do such an unimaginable thing that turns intelligent living beings into truly living creatures.
He even suspected that the great magician Kaimildit sealed this guy back then because he could not give this long-lasting and persistent guy real life.
Creating life itself involves the realm of the gods.
If Kaimildit could even do this, then he would be as powerful as a god.
"I am just a magic apprentice. I'm afraid that even the strongest magician in the world today can't do it. After all, your creator is the greatest magician of all time."
Ribo said as he looked carefully at the expression of the puppet.
Although he was not sure whether this intelligent life body would also change its expression due to different moods, this was the only thing he could do now.
The puppet actually showed a disappointed expression, which was indeed beyond Ruibo's expectations.
"I release you from the sealed state, and the contract is at least part of it." Ruibo said tentatively.
"Your strength is not enough to subdue me at all. When I was just freed from the seal, it was the most vulnerable moment. If you have enough strength, you should be able to think of a way to trap me. Every qualified magician can do this. However, you missed this opportunity. Now no magician in the world can seal me again. I have gained freedom."
The puppet announced his liberation loudly.
"What do you want to do after you have gained freedom? Are you particularly interested in what? Do you know what happiness is? How to enjoy life? How to take risks?" Ribo tried his best to pick the best things in life to seduce this demon puppet who longed for real life.
Ribo would never mention those negative emotions, such as sadness, separation, ambition, greed.
These things cannot even be mentioned.
If this lifeless puppet suddenly wants to become the king of this world, wouldn’t it be a mess in the world?
"What you said is exactly what I am pursuing, that is the meaning of life. Can you give me the meaning of life?" The demon puppet Xiang Ruibo approached.
Rebow was secretly worried. Although he was taking the initiative now, the puppet was obviously deeply attracted by the words he had just said, but Rebow had never learned from Eckert to negotiate with a puppet like this.
I don’t know what dangers and unexpected situations will be caused by deceiving such a lifeless thing.
Ribo could only bet one, maybe his life or something like turning into a frog by that puppet, but once the gambling was successful, he could possess the meticulous masterpiece of the greatest magician of ancient times.
"Although I cannot make you have life, I may be able to share the meaning of life with you. Through me, you may also be able to feel the true life and the happiness of life. Of course, in addition to happiness, there may be sadness. After all, life is not as beautiful as you imagine."
After saying this, Ruibo stared at the misty puppet with nervous expression.
"Can you guarantee to fulfill everything you promised?" the puppet hesitated for a while and suddenly asked.
Ruibo was so happy that he knew he had controlled the whole situation.
Although this puppet is powerful and cunning and wise, it is far from comparable to that of himself taught by the liar master Eckert.
"Although I cannot guarantee that I can find a perfect way to make you feel all my emotions, but when you are with me, you will experience all kinds of your original creator with me, and it is difficult for you to give your life. Your original master, because he is the most powerful magician, has no opponents in his power. His life must be no different from yours now. All you can feel is loneliness."
Rebow suddenly realized that what he yearned for most was not the unimaginable wealth or his majesty, but his extremely rich adventure experience.
"But I am completely different. Among the magicians, my power is extremely weak, and there are countless enemies in front of me who always threaten my life and everything I protect. Unlike your creator, I have people I need to protect and people I love deeply."
"I am absolutely not alone and my life is not so boring. In addition to the thrilling and exciting life, there are also women who love me deeply and love me deeply. This is something your master will never understand, and it is also something you have never experienced and felt before."
Ruibo didn't know if the lifeless puppet had any feelings about these, and he didn't even know how the puppet understood the meaning of life.
The laboratory became extremely quiet, and the puppet seemed to be hesitant.
Seeing his frowning and thinking, Ruibo was extremely worried that for this lifeless and unaware of death, this question would be too profound and would take too much time to consider.
It is far from enough to think about life.
"I am very interested in your proposal. If you are willing to share your life with me, you can use my power, but until you do not have enough strength to subdue me, I will not admit that you are my master, and I will protect you at any time, but I am definitely not your slave, and I will not do anything you command me. Think carefully whether you are willing to enter into such a contract with me."
When Ribo heard the puppet say this, although he was not very willing, after all, a puppet that was not under his control was indeed not a good magic tool. Ribo could hardly imagine what the use of a wand that did not obey his orders was.
But this is already the most favorable agreement between him and the puppet.
Compared with this lifeless puppet, he has no means of restraint at all.
"You may not follow my commands. Our identities are equal. You are not my slave, I am not your master. But you must not act at will against my will. I do not want this contract to add a powerful and dangerous devil to the world."
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in those meaningless ambitions and desires of you humans."
The puppet said.
"You don't understand at all that the meaning of life you pursue, nothing can happen without the desire you look down upon. The meaning of life is desire." Ruibo said.
