Chapter Twenty-Nine: Kamataki and Greenwich
Perhaps guessing that Li Jie might have doubts in this regard, Master Lan deliberately opened his mouth to explain the relationship between demons or other mysterious creatures and mages. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"The practice of a mage, like that of other practitioners, is divided into different schools. In the early years, a considerable number of mages had the habit of driving the monsters of hell as their minions. ”
"There are also people who expect to be inspired by demons because of the limitations of the human body itself, and they make various contracts with demons, both fair and unfair. ”
"Others have different cultivation methods, and they naturally need to use monsters to cultivate. ”
"For example, the Toyo Onmyoji who still uses this method to this day. They are the best of them. ”
"So Bart, you used to be a mage who followed that faction. After a few words of explanation, Arashi turned his head to the sheep-horned demon Bart and asked.
"Venerable Venerable Venerable, I have been following the Supreme Venerable for more than thirty years. "The Sheep's Horn Demon is respectful.
"When did the Ancient One mage summon monsters, didn't he dislike other creatures from the other planes?" Li Jie asked.
"I am not a disciple of the contemporary Supreme Master, but in London, Earth. A branch of Archmage Merlin. Bart replied quickly.
He didn't want to be taken for a liar now, he still had something to ask for Master Lan.
"Archmage Merlin is the Supreme Mage of a thousand years ago. But there are not many disciples under his disciples, and some people have judged that they have switched to the demon god of the different plane. Arashi nodded, acknowledging the presence of Mage Merlin.
"There is still a difference between the Ancient One Master and the Merlin Archmage faction in their cultivation paths. So now our mages in Kamataki rarely drive monsters to use. ”
"This is a borough of London, England, not a small town in the United States. The biggest difference between mages. ”
"Okay, this is a different sect of the same sect?" Li Jie probably explained what Lan said with his own understanding.
In a way that is more in line with the understanding of ordinary Chinese, that is, at the same time, the Huashan faction, but there is a difference between the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect?
"That's how you understand it. Lan couldn't think of a better explanation******* Don Temple was in Greenwich, and the mages of Kamataki still had a lot of communication with Greenwich. Our elder brother, Baron Mordo, has been running the London Temple. ”
"He has a deep relationship with the mages of the Greenwich faction, and many of the mages of Greenwich still retain the habit of driving demons. ”
"Because their way of practice is basically the same as that of Master Merlin. And Master Merlin lived in the dark ages of a thousand years ago, when the earth was even more chaotic. It's not disrespectful to Archmage Merlin, but when he was alive, he was far from being able to shelter the entire earth like the Ancient One. ”
"And it didn't completely disperse all the demon gods on the earth, and the Supreme Mage faction of that era seemed to me to have a somewhat appeasement policy. Although Lan said that she was not disrespectful to Master Merlin, the content of her words was not like this.
"Legend has it that Archmage Merlin's mana is outstanding, and it is not inferior to the main gods of all walks of life. But at the time of his reign, the earth was still in an era when all kinds of monsters and gods were chaotic and used the earth as a battlefield. He seems to be too obsessed with personal mana improvement. ”
Although he had helped King Arthur drive out some evil in the British Isles and establish one of the first holy places in the Dark Ages. But ......"
"Well, it's been a thousand years. We don't praise how good or bad Archmage Merlin was back then. Li Jie interrupted Lan's speech, because it made no sense to make any comments about a predecessor who was a thousand years ago and had become ancient.
Lan glanced at Li Jie, and she sensed her faux pas. She doesn't like the mages of the Greenwich faction, and it's no secret in Kamataki.
Otherwise, the Ancient One originally intended to let Arashi go to London to help Baron Mordo manage the temple together. Because of the three major temples, the temple in Greenwich is the most special.
The Sanctuary in Greenwich contains a considerable number of items related to Archmage Merlin, as well as various books of knowledge that he left behind.
Although Kamataki has some copies of the transcription, many times magic books can only resonate with incredible magic by looking at the original work written by the creator himself.
As a former Supreme Mage, Merlin asked to be buried in Greenwich before he died. He sealed up his private collection of books and belongings in the Greenwich Temple (Greenwich was not yet under the jurisdiction of London at the time).
It is often said that words have power.
This sentence may be an abstract description for ordinary people, or it may be rich in some philosophical meanings, usually as a referential description.
But for an existence of the level of the Supreme Mage, words are power. "Say what you say" is not a simple adjective in literature for them, but a force that works in accordance with the way of heaven.
Therefore, unless the Ancient One mage is preparing to start a full-scale war with the mages of the Greenwich faction, it is impossible to silently break the protective spell left by Archmage Merlin, so as to secretly transfer Mage Merlin's relics, including books.
Therefore, if the mage of Kamataki after leaving the school, if he wants to prepare to continue his training. In addition to traveling everywhere and increasing knowledge.
The most visited place is Greenwich. Greenwich is the second most important gathering place for mages on Earth, after Kamataki.
This is also the reason why the Ancient One wanted to place his confidant -----Baron Mordo---- in the London Temple.
Of course, there is another reason, the reason why the ancient one cannot be declared. He was a little worried about the mages of the Greenwich faction, for the simple reason that it was simple.
Look at the strong, mighty and powerful Sheep Horn Demon Bart who also once served the mages of the Greenwich faction standing in front of Li Jie and Lan.
Perhaps the smart people have already guessed what the Ancient One was worried about. However, he couldn't interfere too much with this, as the Mages of the Greenwich faction were not of the same family as him.
Although they were nominally under the jurisdiction of the Ancient One, they were all self-reliant. The legacy left by Archmage Merlin is enough for most mages to practice for a lifetime. They can not go to Kamataki at all.
Therefore, Mordo was not only responsible for managing the day-to-day affairs of the London Temple, but also took on the important task of communicating with the mages of the Greenwich faction.
Gu Yi didn't want any chaos in this faction, and their way of cultivating was a bit dangerous.
"So, you mean to say. To this day, the mages of the Greenwich faction are still gaining power by communicating with the various different planes?" Li Jie felt a little incredible, all his previous knowledge of mages was focused on Kamataiki.
For such a faction that he has not been in contact with, Li Jie is not able to make rash judgments and evaluate the good or bad of others. But at least he kept an eye on his heart.
"The mages of Greenwich generally do not allow their demonic minions to leave them. Unless he's dead. And even if your master is dead, you shouldn't leave Greenwich, that's the rule!Who was your previous master, and where is your mark!" Arashi ended his conversation with Li Jie, and drew the focus back to the demon Bart.
Her tone was stern, and the other mages who followed Arashi were ready to fight, and the mages of Greenwich never allowed their minions to escape.
"Dear Master, this is my seal. Bart, the claw demon, quickly lifted his sleeves, and the mark of the letters G and Z in the floral script was imprinted on the inside of his arm.
This place is generally the place where the Greenwich mages like to imprint their souls.
"It's really Greenwich's modusion. A mage carefully checked that everything was correct, and then said to Lan.
"Then there's the question of how you got out of Greenwich and went back to Hell. Arashi didn't let her guard down because of the news.
"That's because my host is here too. Yes, there is. Demon Bart said a piece of news that surprised Li Jie and the others.
There's another Greenwich mage right here?
