Throne of Magical Arcana

After several frequent out-of-controls, Etna seems to have temporarily controlled the situation. For almost half a day, the strange black and white gray has not spread out, and Lucien and Natasha have also been able to get through. For a long time, this is a rare good thing for each of them with injuries.

In the afternoon, the scorching sun was thick and the summer heat was steaming. In the gloomy and dark forest around the hills, a ray of light passed through the gap between the branches and leaves, projecting a dazzling light spot on the ground.

Natasha looked around and laughed: "I thought our injured look would attract the coveted villains and robbers, especially if you were showing off your money in the town, but it was so calm along the way , A lot less fun. "

"Did you forget that this is a world without knights and magicians? Although injured, the violet guard armor on your body can only be possessed by the big men like god blood heroes and god beloved in the eyes of townsmen and robbers. They Unless you eat psychedelic things and lose your mind, how can you have the courage to hit us? And, compared to the lure of money and wealth, the beauty seems to be more attractive, but there are several men quietly in the town Follow your peep. "Lucian smiled casually.

Natasha glanced at him: "How do you know their goal is me? Huh, actually built a pretty good castle in the Black Forest? Did Nika have really entered the path of ancient magicians?"

In the center surrounded by the "Pulan Black Willow" in front, there stands a fortress-like castle, which is covered with vines and dead leaves, completely covering the original color, and the highest spire has a preliminary outline of the magician style. ——In the hearts of the original magicians, the construction of tall and pointed magic towers was to try to get closer to the sky and closer to the reality of the world.

When he heard that Nika was studying the mysteries of the gods from the patterns on the monsters, Lucian and Natasha directly thought of the origin of the magician.

Maybe in the age of mythology, the age of steam civilization, when the aliens such as dragons, elves, and werewolves ruled, there was a "crazy" like Nika, so that humans could slowly rise, but then they were on the wrong road of crazy and bloody Going farther and farther, finally tasted the bitter fruit.

In this world, under the oppression of theocracy, the sprouting of magic inevitably happened. Perhaps not only Nika, but other places also have similar "madmen."

"Nika, without learning the idea of ​​meditation and without any spells, can move items and create a fire simply relying on the occasional fluctuations of mental power, which shows that his mental power has already had three or four ring magicians. The level of magic talent is far higher than mine. I am afraid that only a few magicians such as Lord Brooke can compare with him before the systematic study. Such a genius has been studying for so many years, and it is normal to gain something. "Lucien Evaluation of Nika's situation objectively.

However, the talent for magic is on the one hand, and his own efforts and education are on the other hand. The few magicians in Lucien ’s mouth that are comparable to Nika ’s talents are only Brooke who have been promoted to legend, and in the history of magic The budding pioneers may have higher talents than Nika, but none of them can advance to higher ranks.However, relying on their previous efforts to explore the knowledge summarized, after more than ten generations of inheritance, some people have become high-level magicians.

Between the two, the two approached the dilapidated castle.

Cry, a strange bird with white feathers fell on the stone pillar in front of the castle.

"This is the castle of Nika the Wise, and visitors from outside are not welcome." The little bird walked up and down on the stone pillar with his head upright, a look of pride.

Lucien laughed: "We are here to visit Mr. Nika the Wise. I heard that he has a very in-depth study on the patterns and plants on monsters. I happen to be good at this, so I want to talk to him."

"Ah? You're not here to laugh at the" crazy "Nika?" The bird said in a clear voice, surprised. "There are still people studying the mysteries of the gods. How could there be two lunatics, are you lying? Well?" , I have to test you, can you recognize what kind of bird I am? "

"Of course it is a unique white crow, Mr. Nika's pet, a bird of wisdom." Lucien said with a smile.

The bird spread its wings with satisfaction: "The answer is very good, I have to ask Nika to see if he wants to see you as a lunatic."

Seeing the bird fluttering towards the window above the castle, Natasha said strangely: "The white feathers on it should be dyed? And there are no white crows in the" Biology Daquan "?"

"So it's a unique white crow. Have you ever seen other crows dye their own feathers?" Lucien chuckled.

Natasha woke up and shook her head with a smile: "No."

After waiting a few minutes, the castle gate made a creaking noise and slowly opened. A blond boy in a white short robe said respectfully: "The teacher invites you to talk to the research room."

"Teacher? Are you a student of Mr. Nika?" Lucien looked at the little boy, who was only eight or nine years old. It was hard to believe that a guy who was nicknamed "crazy" would have students all around him, could he be kidnapped? Human experiment materials?

The little boy seems to have seen too many of these eyes, and he was aggrieved and indignantly said: "Of course I am a student of the teacher, and the teacher is not a madman in their mouth! He is a real wise man, has insight into the mysteries of the gods, and has mastered the extraordinary Power, they fear and fear him, so they slander him. "

After he finished speaking, before Lucien and Natasha answered, he turned around angrily and led the two into the castle.

After habitually checking the layout of the castle, Lucien didn't find the defense of the magic circle before Lucien helped Natasha, whose left hand could not move, enter the castle.

Going through the humble hall and up the stairs, in front of a dark corridor, just a few steps, the little boy with a sulking in front suddenly said: "The teacher is really not a madman, he is just studying those monsters The strange patterns on the plants, so they will be dismembered. There are many animals that the hunters killed themselves and eaten. They are used to blood, but they hypocritically hate the scenes caused by the teacher. "

He tried hard to defend the "crazy" Nika, trying to gain the identity of the teacher from two strange visitors.

"Well, I understand." Lucien also did the dissection herself, so she didn't nodded.At the same time, I really admire this little boy, really a good student.

Hearing the understanding of the word, the little boy ’s spirit seemed slightly exhilarated, and said in a huff: “Those strange patterns really contain the mystery of the gods, really! The teacher has mastered this power, able to manipulate the flames and ice, making people Sleeping, falling from the sky, stronger than those priests and blood heroes! "

"Really?" Natasha answered in coordination.

When there are questions and answers, the little boy is getting more and more interested: "Really! I will be a little bit, you see."

He mimics the weird sound of monsters in his mouth, his face becomes very solemn, a little magic wave appears in front of him, condenses into an invisible hand, and grabs a candlestick on the left side of the corridor.

"The original version of the Master's Hand." Lucian said to Natasha with a smile in the heart connection. The spells have not been simplified, or the original degree of the simulated monster language.

"Isn't it, I am very powerful?" The little boy raised the candlestick proudly, seeing Lucian and Natasha nodded with a smile, more happy: "The teacher is more powerful than me, and we have no blood or god Give strength, rely on your own efforts! "

"The teacher said that this is the correct way for us humans to truly become stronger and get rid of the control of those false gods. Well, although others don't understand him, I always think he is the greatest wise man, smarter than gods!

"Well, great pioneer." Lucian's expression was solemn.

The little boy who tried hard to correct the guest's impression of the teacher was innocent and lovely. After receiving Lucien's affirmation, the conversation continued along the way, revealing many secrets without knowing it.Soon, the three of them walked to a door covered with animal skin, which was gray with complicated magic patterns.

"Petrochemical Beast?" Lucien frowned slightly. Nika's strength was stronger than he thought?Although this kind of monster is not as good as a petrified lizard, it may be regarded as a high-level monster by using the six-ring "petrification".

The little boy knocked on a specific position on the door and chuckled: "This was picked up by the teacher in a valley, but the pattern on it was too complicated to figure out its mystery, so it was used to keep the gate."

With a squeak, the door opened, and a thick bloody smell came across, and the whole room was like an organ showroom.

Since there is no glassware in this world, the oddly shaped hearts, eyes, intestines, and meat pieces are surrounded by magic and placed randomly. In addition, the window is narrow and the light is weak. It is hard not to be scared to be here.

A middle-aged man in black robe with messy hair is devoting himself to depicting something. On the table in front of him lies a very scary monster.

The monster's upper body is a naked woman with tangled patterns and a protruding mouth, and the lower body is eight giant black spider feet.

"Spiderman ..." Lucian nodded slightly.

The little boy had a very good impression of the two guests. When he saw the teacher, he ignored him completely, and said apologetically: "The teacher will forget other things as soon as he starts to study patterns, whether it is eating, sleeping, or teaching me. Now. "

As time was running out, Lucien and Natasha glanced at each other, and set their eyes on the parchment in front of Nika.

The parchment was drawn with a complicated pattern, and a rectangular coordinate system was roughly established. Nika frowned, and seemed to have encountered a huge problem.

"(25, 78, 39)." Lucian suddenly said.

Nika subconsciously moved the quill pen to that position, drew it, and then his eyes suddenly widened, staring back at Lucien: "Do you understand too?"

The little boy looked at Lucien blankly. He was instructing the teacher?

"The analysis of this pattern must be divided, a coordinate point is ..." Lucien reported a coordinate point again.

In accordance with Lucien's guidance, Nika completed the analysis of that part of the pattern.After staring at the result in front of him for a few seconds, his expression suddenly became distorted and excited, with a crazy taste, and rushed in front of Lucien, with a hoarse voice:

"How did you do it?"

Lucien coughed lightly and didn't answer directly: "While studying the pattern, I had to look up and see the mystery of the gods on the pattern. What about the whole world? The sun and moon rise and fall, and the water flows from high to low Is there no mystery in it? "

"Think about why we fell to the ground after jumping, instead of floating towards the sky."

"Isn't this normal? We are going to fall, this is below." The little boy interjected and answered.

Nick was stunned.
