Chapter 156: The Magician

Regarding the ghost of the dream's behavior of showing a sense of existence, Zhang Xun was stunned, and remembered his many previous spoof behaviors, and he was relieved.

Speaking of the topic, the results of Wu Song's three-person team made him a little surprised, not entirely because of his business ability, but more importantly, the launch of the King Power mobile game made his architectural vision of the Middle Continent much clearer.

However, the development of a large-scale game is not so easy, and it takes time in addition to money.

Zhang Xun felt that it was time for him to put more energy into the city.

Before that, though, he had one more thing to do.

……

……

"You want to see the magician?" LancΓ΄me was a little surprised when she heard the order.

"Yes, a master magician, I have something to ask. ”

Zhang Xun said lightly.

In Luke's memory, there was no more intersection with the mage, in fact, although the mage tower was the second tallest building in the royal capital, the presence of the mage community was not strong.

To be precise, although the wizard community is as well-known as the church and the army, because of the special character of the magicians, they never crave power, they are like a group of obsessive scholars, and it is not enough to spend their life's experience on the pursuit of the magic road, where is the time to play politics?

As a result, magicians rarely appear on the king's desk.

If so, it's probably just a research grant or something new and weird has been developed.

Luke's memory of the mage was limited, but clear.

is completely different from Zhang Xun's imagination, in this world, to be precise, within the Five Kingdoms, there is no magician with the power of destruction in the fantasy story.

It's not that the Great Magician can trigger an earthquake, tsunami, and flame to slaughter the city with a single magic, but it doesn't have that kind of power.

If so, the war situation and politics will probably have to change.

The truth is that the spells of the magician group are very limited, such as flying, there are some, but powerful magicians can only rise to the air for more than ten meters and float.

There is a fireball technique, but at most it can only light a fire.

This level of power can be seen as new, but it is not enough to call it a powerful force.

If it is said that the strength is not even as good as the internal qi of some samurai families, or something similar to the fighting qi, of course, it is far less powerful than in fantasy.

What underpins the existence of the entire group of magicians is their use of magic.

There are magical elements in this world, which are attached to many objects, such as trees, flowers, ores, etc.

Magic gives these ordinary things some properties, such as the redstone that Master Ruhr said last time that provides constant temperature.

Magicians use some strange research methods to find a way to combine these innate magical things, and then create some strange products.

Most of these products are useless, but the few that can be applied are very precious.

Therefore, any kingdom or force is willing to pay the price to support the magicians, maybe this group of people can come up with some magical things with a pat on the head.

And the so-called magic of some religions is actually just magic in disguise.

In this sense, magicians are not entirely indifferent to power.

But from the beginning, the magicians who aspired to power became the founders of religion, and the rest of the simple ones remained in the heart of scholars.

When Zhang Xun recalled this information, he couldn't help but think of the magic items he had obtained.

Then he couldn't help but feel a little excited, similar to the Mind Gem, the Charm Gem, the Medal of Courage, and the Healing Potion, all of which were very powerful, and he wanted to know what kind of power could make those magical props.

But what puzzled Zhang Xun was......

From Luke's memory, it seems ...... The magical objects of this world were not as powerful as the ones he had ever seen.

For example, for the mind control gem, Luke's memory shows ......

Its effect can only make people fall asleep silently, and the psychological defense line is reduced.

But it is completely unable to achieve the effect of mind control.

The Church's healing potion could only make the wound heal a little faster in Luke's memory, but it was difficult to repair a serious injury.

"Hmm, could it be that the magic items I've used are generally more effective than they actually are?"

Zhang Xun was puzzled and decided to investigate later.

……

……

Most magicians are too interested in the king's power to respond to the king's calls.

LancΓ΄me also knows this.

So she thoughtfully transferred this order directly to Master Ke Lan, who had the title of royal magician.

After all, there are some magicians who are not so scientific and have not joined the church early.

Ke Lan is one of them.

When he appeared in front of Zhang Xun, he was full of suspicion.

Colan had only met Luke a few times before, and hadn't spoken much.

To be precise, this was the first official meeting with a court wizard since Luke ascended the throne.

Ke Lan was a little nervous, because he didn't know what the new king's temperament was.

But when he saw Zhang Xun sitting in the study, Ke Lan was inexplicably relieved, because he saw that tea had been placed on the king's table.

There are two cups.

"Court mage Ke Lan has seen Your Majesty. ”

Zhang Xun raised his head and found that this Master Ke Lan was about fifty years old, considering that the life span of people from the other world was not long due to lack of productivity, so Ke Lan's actual age should be about forty.

Although he is a mage, he is not an elder.

He wore his trademark mage robes, his demeanor respectful, and his gray eyebrows were far more noticeable than his ordinary appearance.

"Mage, please be seated. ”

Zhang Xun smiled and ordered Ke Lan to sit down, and then went straight to the point and said: "I invited the mage here today, mainly because I want to ask about some things. ”

"Your Majesty, please speak, Ke Lan knows everything. ”

Zhang Xun nodded and asked, "I have heard that the soul power of a mage is higher than that of ordinary people, I wonder if it is true?"

Ke Lan smiled and said calmly: "It's true, magic is good for people's spirits, and magicians' souls are indeed stronger. ”

"I've heard that people with strong soul power are more energetic. ”

"It can't be said that there are more aspects to energy. But if you just refer to it, the strong soul power does have this effect," Ke Lan said cautiously.

"I've heard that through meditation you can increase your soul's strength. ”

Ke Lan smiled: "Yes, but this is only effective for magicians, if you don't have an affinity for magic, then meditation is not very useful." ”

Zhang Xun then smiled and said: "Sure enough, that's the case, since the reign of this king, I feel that there are many affairs and lack of energy, so I want to ask the mage to see if I have any magical talent, even if it is only a little, then I can learn to meditate." ”

Ke Lan was stunned, he really didn't expect that the king would be for this.

Historically, due to the strange nature of magicians, the aristocracy did not think much of magic, but only regarded it as a fun thing.

As the king of the largest aristocracy, there is not much interest in magic.

If there is, it is limited to magic items.

So Ke Lan was a little surprised by Zhang Xun's request.

However, after considering the new king's age, he was relieved.

Young people are always curious about mysterious things.

This is nothing, but Ke Lan still said: "Your Majesty wants to see if you have the qualifications to practice magic?" This can be easily seen, but, with all due respect, Your Majesty has a good royal martial arts practice, and there is really no need to contact magic." ”

Zhang Xun smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Okay, I know the mage's concerns, it's okay, I'm just giving it a try, if not, it's also divine will." ”

"Hmm...... All right. ”

Ke Lan groaned and said, "Coincidentally, I really have a magic ball on me that can be tested. ”

As he spoke, he reached out and took out a small cloth bag from his robe.

Looking at the shape, it looks like a ball.

Ke Lan said respectfully: "If you want to test it, you only need to hold it, but please also ask Your Majesty to remove the forbidden magic bracelet." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to a light bracelet on Zhang Xun's wrist.

Zhang Xun was not surprised.

Before that, he had learned that some of the big nobles and important people had forbidden items on them.

It's just because some magic items can cause strange effects on people.

The Forbidden Trinket can block this damage.

This is one of the reasons why mages are rarely used in the field of warfare.

Zhang Xun hesitated, but finally removed the bracelet.

And Ke Lan had already opened the cloth bag and poured out an orange-red round ball.

On the orange inside, a bright red star floats.

Zhang Xun stared at the magic ball, looking left and right......

"Looks a bit like Dragon Ball......"
