I really just want to be a big lord

Chapter 51 Touring the Factory
Keos had previously searched for content related to soul magic from various books, but after looking around, the description of the soul only had the standard rule of thirds structure, and there was no more introduction.

The so-called trichotomy of the soul means that the soul is composed of three major parts.

They are the outermost "driving spirit", the core "body spirit", and the "hidden ancestor spirit" hidden in the depths.

The driving spirit is related to people's various representational actions, muscle memory, acquired skills and ability to use, etc.;

The body spirit is the main body of consciousness, and most of the memories of a person are controlled and stored by this part;

The hidden ancestral spirit is the most mysterious. It is believed to be related to the genetic blood, and it hides many instincts from birth.

Even for these three simplest definitions, the books Kaios read did not fully and clearly introduce them. He still guessed them based on various fragments and notes left by the original owner.

If such speculation is not verified and compared with multi-channel materials, there will definitely be inaccuracies.

Therefore, his previous deduction often fell into self-contradictory or unsustainable situations.

That's why he was eager to get knowledge about soul magic, curses, and undead to complete the knowledge system.

But after reading Pan De's notes today, he instantly had an overall understanding of the underlying structure of the soul.

Originally, he speculated that practicing aura and magic should be mainly related to driving spirits, like language ability.

But Pan De's notes clearly stated that general cultivation depends on the cooperation of the driving spirit and the main body spirit, but whether one can cultivate and the upper limit of cultivation all depend on the hidden ancestor spirit.

Especially for the top level to continue to break through and become a super level, it is necessary to face one's own "hidden ancestral spirit", control the instinct, and even change the "hidden ancestral spirit" into a "manifested ancestral spirit".

Kaios originally thought that the original owner cut his own soul and fused it to his sister's undead, which was the "driver spirit"--after all, he was also using his own flesh and blood to help Lena practice, and the "driver spirit" had muscle memory and control. function of the body.

But after reading Pan De's notes, he knew that once the body spirit and driving spirit were damaged, the impact would be very obvious.

Especially the driving spirit, once it is defective, it will be paralyzed, or it will be incoordination, movement disorder, uncontrollable muscle twitching and so on.

However, the manifestations of damage to the hidden ancestral spirit should be concealed, and more of them are changes in one's own emotions, such as nightmares, hallucinations, delusions, and uncontrollable negative emotions for no reason.

This immediately corresponds to the information that Kaios obtained from the original owner's paintings and graffiti notes. From this, it is speculated that the one that the original owner cut and fused with the little undead Lenna is most likely his own hidden ancestral spirit.

In this way, it also helped Kaios to smooth out the mechanism for determining the life and death of the contract owner for the "soul subordination contract".

From the original owner's notes, he knows that after a person dies, the order of the three spirits dissipating is the hidden ancestor spirit, the main body spirit, and finally the driving spirit. Opportunity for those with bad intentions to use their means.

If the necromancer does not make advance preparations, or the undead itself has become an evil spirit due to the influence of the environment, generally the driving spirit is the main summoner.

Therefore, the true determination of death in the "soul subordination contract" should be the complete disappearance of the hidden ancestor spirit.

That's why, after the original owner fell into a coma and was seized by Kaios, the life-and-death judgment mechanism of the "Soul Subordination Contract" didn't work, and the contract still existed—if the contract disappeared, the contracted servant would feel it.

Knowing the place to hang the "hook", then as long as you find the "hook", you may be able to decipher its specific function and find a way to use it.

At that time, regaining the control of the soul contract, finding a way to sign a new contract and cancel the contract is just the basics. He may be able to figure out how to forcibly break other people's soul subordination contracts.

Although Pender's notes do not contain detailed information about the soul subordination contract or any other soul magic, as long as he clarifies the overall principle and direction of the soul and related spells acting on the soul, all the details can be tested out through small experiments. .

He has even drawn up several routes in his mind and designed dozens of experiments.

In addition, although Pan De's notes are all about art appreciation and artistic creation, in essence, they are all training and perceiving the hidden ancestor spirit.

The "hook" linked to the soul subordination contract is hung on the hidden ancestral spirit, and the Shengyou Palace's control of soul magic and related theories, Kaios knew that there must be other deep meanings in it.

Training Yin Zuling through art appreciation, art creation, and emotional stimulation is like opening the windows of a completely closed car. The more windows you open, the wider the view and the better the car will drive.

As for Kaios, he hangs directly outside the car and drives with a clear view. He can drive the car naturally and easily, which is very easy.

So what other people find difficult and needs to be done by calling the Yin ancestor spirit, but he can easily do it.

But he also needs similar training, because he also needs to "open the window" for the car. He has to look in from the outside, see the inside of the car, see the direction of sight from inside and outside the car, and see where the steering wheel and brakes are.

As a result, he also had a prototype in his mind for the cultivation plan of the "devil spirit".

Pender's diary was really a timely help, and it directly opened a door for him.

……

In the next few days, Kaios still went to the city every day, and spent every day on the fourth floor of the library.

I came early in the morning and left after the library closed at midnight, and I used up the seven days of this application.

On the one hand, it is to maintain his personality as a "painter obsessed with top artworks", on the other hand, it is also necessary to collect as many emotions as possible from the works, and transform them back into his own works, so as to design different "magic spirits" "Application method.

In the past few days, he has not met the presiding judge Pan De, and the presiding judge has not asked him to go to the Shengyou Palace, so he is naturally not good at going to the Shengyou Palace to bother him.

However, he and that library worker, Delby, got to know each other very quickly. In the next few days, he would bring him a souvenir every day, successfully "cultivating" the halo at the back of the other's head from half yellow to 1 /4 blue.

On the day after meeting with Presiding Judge Pender, Keos had actually asked someone to check Delby's information, and found out that the Anthos family he belonged to had lost the title of baron in his grandfather's generation. Has returned to normal lords.

Delby's father was not the main heir of the lord either, and only received a small piece of property. As the sixth son, Delby also had no right of main inheritance, and the money he received from his father was also very small, even a piece of property None, the houses in the city are rented.

Knowing this, Kaios not only did not underestimate him, but actually started to be interested in him.

When Delby was on the first, second and third floors, he basically had the same attitude towards all the nobles, with a business-like, indifferent and rigid feeling, neither neglecting anyone, nor showing obvious enthusiasm for anyone.

But after Kaios reached the fourth floor and was later summoned by the presiding judge, his attitude changed progressively, but he still had a better sense of proportion.

From a few days of getting along and communicating, it can be seen that this person has vision, ideas, and communication skills, but he can bear his temper and will not change his principles for small gains. He is a person who can do things.

You know, he can often see Judge Pan De and other nobles who are qualified to enter the fourth floor.

Seven days later, Kaios embarked on a tour of the Li family property.

Before leaving, he personally inspected the double forbidden spirit realm in the warehouse, and told Harvey and Lu Hao who were staying behind, that they must be extremely vigilant against Guan Yaoxing.

In fact, he went to chat with Guan Yaoxing for more than ten minutes every night for the past seven days, but he never mentioned "devil physique" or topics related to undead spells and curses, and he didn't even mention cultivation.

Just talking about some of his experiences on the road, his thoughts on a certain food, or seeing a painting of a certain scene in the western region, and the extended questions.

Kaios is very patient, he knows that dealing with Guan Yaoxing should not be in a hurry, and he must not enter her rhythm.

After obtaining new information points, Kaios will start trying to engage in a new "deal" game with her.

The closest economic property of the Li family to Beishan Manor is the Chenglue Factory where Juan is the manager.

The main product of this factory is the lamp holder of the magic lamp. It is said to be a factory, but it is actually more like a large-scale workshop, because at first glance, the factory is full of workers sitting in front of the table and polishing by hand, without decent, magic power. driven machine.

What made Kaios a little puzzled was that almost none of the workers here seemed to be fully healthy. Those workers who sat and polished and carved the lamp holders almost all had disabilities in their lower limbs, and some of their bodies also had abnormal distortions. sense.

And the workers who keep going in and out of the factory to push carts to transport materials and finished products, almost all of them have disabilities, and there are even limping people pushing carts.

Originally, before he came to Chenglue Factory, his focus was on Juan, the manager here—the last time he saw Juan, the halo in the back of this guy's head was half gray and half gray, which was very suspicious.

But after arriving at the factory here, the conditions of these workers really made him a little curious.

Why are all disabled?
Are they disabled because they work here, or does this factory only recruit disabled people?

But aren't these workers all his subjects?
