Chapter 695: 222. Extreme Measures_2
When Noland Lee heard Denise Green talking about these matters at that time, he felt very puzzled.
He just treated Denise normally according to his good upbringing, without deliberately showing any kindness or such things.
How did this ordinary quality and performance become something remarkable in Denise’s mouth?
It wasn’t until Noland saw the Companion Witches in the metal box that he realized how bizarre the minds of the wizards in this world were…
The Metal Series Wizard named Plin was very likely to have conducted inhumane modifications on his own Companion Witch.
In his own eyes, these magical alterations might be as normal as it could be.
But in Noland’s worldview, this kind of behavior was considered inhuman.
Noland’s heart was slightly heavy.
He recalled for a moment.
In fact, since transmigrating, among all the wizards he had met, only a few had values and morals that were close to his own.
Mabel, Denise Green, Philia, Betty Davis, Erica, Selena, Jenela—their values were decent, and Noland could accept them.
Apart from them, people like Greenshaw of the Death Herald Guild, Hickman Arlington and Gilbert Winchester of the Soul Shaping Society, and Nikcat the Tomb King, all had more or less signs of losing their humanity.
It’s hard to imagine what the wizard forces, which feed on living people, would do if they were not bound by the Ulnas Ring Law and other magic departments such as the Department of Magic and the Wizard Advancement Association.
“The Ulnas Circle really is a place of mixtures, with both good and bad…
“When I first read the memories of Greenshaw, I felt that this country was a neutral chaos, even a Chaos Evil Faction. From my experience, it is indeed so.
“All evil wizard forces are bound by the laws, but they have found various ways to circumvent the laws and achieve their evil goals. The key is that all their practices are still in line with the laws…”
Noland thought of the Ulnas Ring’s Second Law Order and the Third Order.
The Second order is related to various wizard forces and is used to restrain their behavior.
The Third Order restrains wizard families linked by blood relations.
These two laws are more like “permissions” rather than “restrictions”.
For example, the Second Order is full of words like “XXXX behavior is illegal, but certain wizard forces are exceptions,” making this law known as the “exception law”.
For example, Puri and his Companion Witch.
Transforming her forcibly into a non-human being without the consent of others is undoubtedly a violation of the rules.
But if the person involved is a Companion Witch, then this behavior is legal.
This is the exception situation referred to in the Second Order.
Because the contract between the Companion Witch and the contractor states that the Companion Witch must unconditionally obey the contractor within the range of “Soul Perception”.
Such situations of “XXXX behavior is illegal, but certain wizard forces are exceptions” can be seen everywhere in the Second Order.
In the end, it’s the power of contracts and extraordinary strength between individuals that overrides the laws.
This has created the strange situation where illegal behaviors not allowed by law become legal in the hands of powerful wizards.
However, as a transmigrator, Noland has his own scale in his heart.
The laws of Ulnas are just tools rather than guidelines for him.
Noland calmed down and read through all the memory fragments obtained by Deconstruction, then flew invisibly to an island.
The island was about seventy kilometers from the place of assassination of the Demon Brain Parasite.
The metal box buried by Plin was on this island.
According to the clues in the memory fragments, Noland searched the island and found the exact location of the metal box.
After confirming with Deconstruction that there were no traps or ambushes around, he dug up the soil and saw a corner of the gray metal box.
Using a Deconstruction Technique, Noland spent some energy points to get the panel information of the box.
“Sigh…Damn it, what a beast.”
Noland glanced at the Deconstruction results and cursed in his heart.
The Metal Series Wizard named Plin had transformed his Companion Witch into some sort of metal magic life form.
Plin erased the mind of the Companion Witch, enslaved her soul, and took away all her control over Rebirth Magic.
Every point of Rebirth Magic Power from Plin would be transformed into an activating material for creating magic metal by the transformed Companion Witch, thereby enhancing Plin’s Magic Metal Armor.
This bizarre cultivation method shocked Noland’s worldview and made him determined to deal with Plin.
Even if Plin’s behavior belonged to the Second Order’s permission of exceptional cases, Noland still planned to kill him.
Moreover, he also planned to join forces with the Demon Brain Parasite to ambush Noland himself.
“Plin must die.”
Noland clenched his fist, restored the soil under his feet, and cast “Death Flight” to fly towards the wizards’ base near the assassination site of the Deep Sea Branch.
He wants to determine which Deep-sea Wizards were bought by Fagen and who the Wizard pretending to be a Deep-sea Wizard was.
If the family wizard in disguise turned out to be Fagen’s family secret guard or some other seven-ring or above Combat Wizard, the risk Noland would face would be somewhat beyond his tolerance level.
