June 6, the 17th year of the Great Liang Taiyuan

Meng Jingzhi, a famous historian in later generations, regarded this day as the beginning of the entry of the dwarf race into the world, and he clearly recorded in the "Xieshi Taizu Benji": "On June 6 of the seventeenth year of Liang Taiyuan, the beginning of the re-entry of short people into the world!"

The rain still didn't come down, and the sun hid in the dark clouds, and although there was a breeze, there was no coolness. In the early morning, the central square of Tuobi City was full of dwarven people. A tall statue stands in the center of the square on a huge round bluestone staircase, with angry eyes and hands spread upward, as if performing some kind of powerful magic, the battle armor made of copper rings is majestic, the shoulder drape flutters in the wind, and the scimitar inlaid with various gems straddles the waist.

The three elders walked up the steps in turn, and after the chief elder Aaron stood still, he looked around, and the square immediately fell silent. "This year, there are one hundred and fifty-seven people who have entered the library to practice, and yesterday I received a revelation from the sages that our patriarch will appear at this year's coming-of-age ceremony, and it is in our tribe. ”

The audience cheered, after all, they couldn't remember how many years it had been without a patriarch, the other three tribes had long since lost contact, and the previous lively scene no longer existed.

Aaron turned back to the other Elder Rahman and said, "Open the portal of teleportation!"

Rahman nodded, took a step back, and with a stroke of the void in his right hand, a golden circle of light appeared on the steps, gradually expanding to more than two zhang high and one zhang wide, and after standing on the ground, the circle changed to square, and the golden border was like electric light in the surroundings, extremely gorgeous, and the middle of the frame was milky white like water waves, slowly wriggling.

Elder Aruf said to the children who were neatly participating in the coming-of-age ceremony below, "Please follow me into the library in an orderly manner and complete the heavy responsibility you are about to carry!"

Andrew stood at the back of the line, he didn't know what was behind the portal, what he knew was that his own life was destined to change in this moment. "How bad can it be?" he comforted himself.

Eric was standing behind him, and he leaned over to Andrew's ear and whispered, "I'm still a little nervous!

Andrew looked at his melancholy dark blue eyes, looking at his good friend's nervous expression, he didn't know how to comfort him, and blurted out: "I will protect you!"

Ryan, who was in front of "flutter", laughed out loud when he heard this, and then covered his mouth. Then she turned to Andrew and said, "Will you protect me?" The faint body fragrance penetrated into Andrew's body with the air she exhaled, he could feel the bones in his body as if they were about to melt, he didn't dare to look at the beautiful little girl in front of him anymore, lowered his head and stopped talking, but he already had the answer in his heart.

Eric glanced at Ryan, who immediately lowered her head, and she grimaced and turned her head, two blush on the little girl's cheeks.

The library was very spacious, and the empty hall was full of children participating in the coming-of-age ceremony, and Aluf signaled everyone to be quiet, and shouted a warning to these children: "Upstairs is the library of the sanctuary of the clan, there are six bookcases with magic books, and six bookcases are respectively placed with 'attack', 'defense', 'concealment', 'control', 'healing' and 'solution', and the magic books placed in each bookcase are the same, so don't fight for them." Half a day is enough time for you to finish practicing these six magic books," After finishing speaking, his body suddenly turned into thousands of fragments and disappeared in an instant. However, Aruf's voice echoed in the hall, "Don't overuse your spiritual power, the more you consume, the longer it will take to recuperate, we will wait for you on the roof, I wish you good luck." ”

The children walked up the stairs with excitement on their hands.

The six bookcases upstairs are regularly placed around, with seats and benches in the middle, and there is a word hanging above each bookcase, which is attack, defense, concealment, healing, control, and solution! After looking around, Andrew found that none of them he could understand, and the six magic books were all history books that recorded the origin of the dwarf race. He quietly looked at the excited students in front of him, flames, wind and snow swirling over their heads, and all kinds of enchantments of all sizes filled the entire hall, it was obvious that they all really had something of their own.

Andrew sat down in a quiet place, studying the magic book in his hand until Eric called out to him, and he stood up tremblingly.

He and Eric were the only ones left in the hall, and Eric ran over with a smile, "How's it going?

Andrew smiled bitterly and did not speak. "Maybe I'll write the history of the dwarves in the future!"

Eric looked puzzled, fate is sometimes really elusive, a person like Eric who will never lack friends at all, but sees Andrew, who can't see any merits, as his best friend.

Although Eric couldn't understand what he said, he still whispered in his ear mysteriously: "I can understand all six magics," he couldn't hide his joy, "Don't believe it, look!" After speaking, his hands slowly rose, and Andrew suddenly felt that the air flow around him seemed to freeze, and the chairs and books that were messy just now were slowly placed in order.

As he swung down violently, the solidified airflow was instantly released, and the powerful airflow flowed endlessly in the hall, and finally merged into a small circle of light, and the sound of "bang" turned into thousands of small sparks and disappeared, and the granite on the ground was as white and flawless as if it had been washed with water.

When the two of them reached the top floor, they saw the three elders sitting precariously, and in front of them was a square bookcase, on which was a thick book. Everyone was walking through the bookcase one by one, with mixed expressions on their faces. As everyone walked past one by one, the elders' faces turned pale. Aaron's fierce gaze swept over everyone, and his eyes fell on Eric and Andrew, who were standing in the distance.

Finally everyone walked over, and everyone's eyes fell on Eric and Andrew, and the elders all stood up, unable to see a single expression.

Andrew patted Eric lightly on the crook of his arm and motioned for him to come over. Eric hesitated, Andrew pushed hard, and Eric ran over tremblingly.

The books on the bookcase seemed to be summoned by some kind of power, and with a piercing roar, the books flew up in the air, and the dark black words "Supreme Magic" turned into gold and emitted a dazzling light. The book whistled and flew towards Eric, stopped above Eric's head and circled and flew towards Andrew, circled around Andrew, and flew towards Eric again, and so on.

This had never happened before in the history of the dwarves, and the elders' faces darkened.

Andrew shouted, "Eric, open the book, open the book!" Eric didn't have time to think about it, grasped the book, and struggled to open it, and suddenly a golden light poured out of the book and enveloped Eric.

Many years later, one winter, on a high hill in the Cliff City, the dwarven patriarch Eric the lord of the Cliff City asked Andrew the question that had been buried for many years, "Why don't you open the Supreme Magic Book?", the Loyal Spirit King stood up, awe-inspiring, the dark brown haze was suddenly swollen by the gale, he poured a sip of the spirit, threw the flask to Eric, and left without looking back. "My friend...... It's not much!" Read the book with fast eyes_
