Chapter 51: Distant Fame

"The ones who are out of breath, let's go early next time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info" said Anna Goo, "I have no other problems in class, keep it quiet, and don't let me hear your panting. With that, she turned and walked into the tower.

The students secretly exchanged glances, this teacher was so demanding, and sure enough, the group leaders were right.

Merlin walked through the archway hung with ice crystals into the tower, only to feel that he had passed through a curtain of water, washed away all the sweat and dust from his body, and then came to another world, a world of books.

Compared to those I saw when I saw it, whether it was the tower of the airport or the white tower of the high priest, this circular tower more than ten meters high seemed extraordinarily low, but it only had one floor. In the middle of the tower is a podium and a ring of stepped tables and chairs, while the walls around it, from the bottom to the dome of the spire, are made of stacked books, densely packed with heavy books.

There were no windows, no fireplaces, only a piece of illuminated crystal from the dome, illuminating the sea of books that surrounded it, as if it were in a tomb made of books, and then buried in those inks and papers and turned into history, solidified into fragments of a story, or inconsequential illustrations, and never again.

Maureen shuddered, came back to his senses, and looked at Barron and Aeno beside him, both of whom had already taken out their books.

"The world is ancient...... Anna Koo began to narrate.

"It is said that a long, long time ago, when all races had not yet created writing. Beings are born, grow, communicate with each other, and even create ......" she said with an ethereal dream in her tone.

But no matter how glorious a living being may be, no matter how deeply he explores the world, no matter how much knowledge is born in that great soul, it will be in vain. ”

"Because living beings go to death. "With the death of a living being, everything related to it is buried. Oral truths become history, and history quickly becomes stories, stories are woven into legends, and then legends are gradually forgotten. ”

"There is no longer the slightest message, that one living being, that time, is lost forever. ”

What a bleak picture.

"Until there are words. ”

"Then there are books, and experiences are written in words that don't change, engraved into paper. As if proud of this great achievement, Anna Goo raised her tone slightly: "From then on, we began to build another world, and slowly built the tower of civilization with the minds of generations and the experience of countless people." ”

"The framework of the world is pieced together, the mysteries of magic are studied in depth, and the knowledge of cards and crystals is widely disseminated. She paused, and said, "And all this, everything we have accumulated from the past, is called history in a broad sense. ”

"As for the history of magic, the study of the history of the plane, the history of magic, and if you come to the classical mage school and want to delve into the direction of the history of magic, the books around you," Anna Gu waved her hand, "will be the most basic to study. ”

With the exception of Tierna, who had already taken the course, all the students widened their eyes.

How long will it take to build up the bricks and stones of the books on the walls, piled up from the ground to the top of the tower, and I am afraid that there will be no less than 10,000 books? Even Mo Lin, with his special ability, the young man estimated, I am afraid that it will take more than ten years to do it.

"Let's start the official class. Anna Goo said.

At the same time, the boy's familiar, cold, somewhat indistinct voice came through his mind, like the one he would hear when he touched a book, and asked himself if he wanted to take this course.

Habitually replied yes, the young man was suddenly stunned, and secretly screamed that it was not good.

Sure enough, an irresistible sleepiness struck, and Mo Lin slowly closed his eyes, his strange ability is actually effective for the course, can you not notify me in advance......

Anna Koo, who had begun her lecture, took out a pale yellow magic card from her robe, the card lit up slightly, and then the lighting crystal on the top of the tower dimmed, and some real scenes appeared in the classroom.

The students found that they seemed to be in the middle of the forest, where the original desks, chairs, and books on the four walls were all transparent, replaced by a deep and dark forest, with all kinds of hideous and terrifying creatures.

A white wolf larger than a brown bear pounced on them, and a timid girl was already screaming.

But the white wolf passed through them as if they were just shadows, and swooped down on a huge beetle in another place.

The brown liquid poured out of the cracks in the broken beetle, and before it could hit the ground, it was devoured by a group of galloping insects, and the remains of the beetle fell to the root of the tree, and countless rhizomes immediately grew wildly, enveloping the remains of the beetle, and after a few moments, the rhizomes dug into the earth, and there was no trace of the giant beetle.

"Is it an illusion?" asked Marcus in a low voice.

Tilna nodded, her middle finger in front of her mouth, signaling silence.

Among the lush bushes, you can still see Anna Goo.

"What you see is the appearance of the Chaos Forest," she said, waving her hand lightly, and they gradually floated up, with the amazement of some teenagers, through the cascading canopy, and stopped in the sky, "Before the Flame of Order was ignited, our Todder was like this, filled with the Black Forest and the creatures of Chaos. ”

The forest under his feet is as hideous as those giant beasts in the forest, the scorching sun overhead releases the heat, the local weather is changing rapidly, the sudden hurricane, the sudden gathering of dark clouds pour down heavy rain, the raging lightning from time to time ignites pieces of fire, the leaves that have just been soaked by the rain are immediately withered by the sun, the creatures are growing wildly, multiplying, and then dying in pieces, quickly rotting, as if the speed of time has been accelerated thousands of times, and even the chaotic magic vortex that can be seen everywhere gives birth to all kinds of hideous creatures, and then quickly shatters, temporarily razing the surrounding forest to the ground。

"Until the mages and scholars of Isaun, through the gate of time, came here," as Anna Goo narrated, the illusion around them changed again and began to speed rapidly, the scroll of the earth quickly rolled under their feet, and the vegetation became sparse, barren, and cold.

They came to the sky above the ice field, where the sun seemed to be frozen crystal, and the howling wind blew the ice field into a mirror. Such a desolate place should have been a dead silence, but there stood a building that shouldn't belong here.

It was a door, a door hundreds of meters high.

The pillars resemble a tall black tower, and the three steps in front of the gate resemble a wide square.

In the middle of the column, however, is a swirl of colourful light and shadow, which rotates wildly, but is extremely stable, as if forming some kind of peculiar balance.

"This is the Gate of Time, the door that connects all the planes of the Shattered World. Anna Goo's voice.

At this moment, the Gate of Time shimmered, and several figures could be seen landing on the steps of the square, and from here they were all very small, and only a few faint black dots of human shape could be distinguished.

One of the black dots lifted something, and it was a ball that emitted light.

Then the sphere suddenly flashed, releasing a blinding light, much brighter than the sun in the sky, and those rays of light rushed through the ice field, washing the sky, and the whole world seemed to slowly change.

This is the pioneers that Maureen said, this is the pioneering era, Barron looked at this scene excitedly, and couldn't help but boil his blood.

Anna Gu pulled out another pale yellow magic card, ready to tell the rest of the story, but frowned.

Because she heard a very discordant voice.

"Whew...... Whew......"

……

Maureen was dreaming, and he dreamed of the scene in the Gundi Forest again.

His eyes were full of vicious old men, he grabbed his collar and tore at his hoarse voice: "I want to go back! I've been here for too long! That's not what I said at first! I want to go back......"

But what bug seems to be biting its own arm?

It hurts......

The boy woke up to find Aeno pinching his arm.

Unable to wipe the saliva from the corners of his mouth, or marvel at how they were floating in the air, or to recall the sudden extra knowledge in his mind, Merlin looked at Anna Gu in astonishment, her gloomy gaze staring at her.

"Mr. Maureen Calland," she said slowly, evidently suppressing her anger, "what makes you think that you can sleep in my class?"

"Ah......h......h

"Stand up and answer the question, Mr. Callander," Anna Goo withdrew her illusion and restored the classroom to her surroundings.

"I ...... I didn't mean to......" Rolling his blue eyes, the young man said helplessly.

"Who lit Tolddell's first flame of order?" asked Anna Goo.

"Scholar Mage of Issune?" replied the boy, a question he had known for a long time.

"What is the time span between our epochs and each epoch?" she asked.

"The Ancient, the length is unknown, the First Age, also known as the Lost Era, spans about two or three thousand years, and the Second Age, also known as the Griffon Age, lasts for two thousand three hundred and seventy-nine years, and many people say that it is two thousand four hundred and seventy years," Merlin recalled the books he had read before, as well as those that suddenly appeared in his mind, and said slowly: "The Third Age, the War Era, a total of 1,562 years, the Fourth Age, the Alliance Era, until this year's Fenghong year, a total of 849 years. ”

Anna Goo's face softened, but she still asked, "What are the five explanations for the collapse of the Griffon Empire?"

Morin opened his mouth, but couldn't answer. I've never read it, and I haven't remembered it in the sleep I just slept: "...... I don't know. ”

"Even if you read the book in advance, you are not allowed to sleep in my class. "There's no strict lesson plan, I'll talk about a lot of other things on the fly," she says, "and," she stresses, "everything that is mentioned in my class is within the scope of the exam." ”

"Because of your performance, deduct 10 points. "Now sit down!"

The young man, who did not dare to argue, sat down in his chair and watched ten tiny lights fly out of the identity ring of his index finger, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. Each freshman only has a total of 20 starting points, and this time half of it is gone, and I don't know how to make it back.

The rest of the course was long, but Maureen sat like a pincushion. On the one hand, most of what the teacher said was already in his head, and on the other hand, the boy could feel that Anna Goo's gaze swept over him from time to time, as if to supervise him. But with her gaze without emotion, the young man felt that he was about to drive himself crazy.

Finally got through to the end of class, and they were finally able to communicate freely.

But Tilna didn't blame Morin, but couldn't help but smile and said: "Ten is not too much, it won't affect too much, it's just that you're going to be famous." ”

The Vess Demon Spirit did not explain, and the boy was confused.

The afternoon class was not of the classical mage school, so they were going back to the lakeside.

Led by Tilna and the other freshman leaders, they walked out of the tower and down the path to the cliff on the other side.

Beneath the cliff is a vast sea of clouds, rolling until the end of the view, occasionally revealing a gap where you can see the blue lake.

"Jumping from here, you can go straight back to the dormitory castle, and you don't need to walk several Orr mountain trails. Tierna introduced.

The blonde Alice was the first to demonstrate, leaping forward with a light leap, smiling back in mid-air and waving at the stunned freshman before plummeting. However, she did not fall straight down, but crossed a downward arc in the air, and even bypassed a snowy peak, disappearing from view.

"It's a magical passage that connects to the dormitory castle and some other places, so it's easy to get down the hill," Tilna explained, "and there won't be any danger." ”

Before she could finish speaking, a red-haired girl had jumped off the cliff, it was the dragon girl Thea, who shouted, "Fun! Tevez I'll go first!"

The remaining members of the dragon group also jumped off the cliff.

However, the rest of the students exchanged glances with each other, and for a moment no one followed.

"Marcas, you go first, for the honor of the nobility!" said Morin with a smile, he was not too scared, and was cheering on the other team members.

The young man poked his head out slightly, looked at the steep cliff wall deep into the sea of clouds, swallowed his saliva, but realized that Tilna was looking at him, finally took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and jumped out.

"Ah......h

"Barron, it's your turn!" Morin encouraged, patting the Kadir boy on the shoulder.

"I ...... I...... I'll go for a run, just in time!" replied the pale-faced Barron, turning to walk down the mountain.

"But the students of the dragon clan before have all jumped down!" Mo Lin said, "Aren't we going to surpass them, we can't lose in momentum." ”

"Barbarians don't fight in the sky with those who can fly, and if they can't put their feet on the earth, what ...... do with goblins," the Kadir boy muttered in a low voice.

"Look, there's a goblin flying in the sky!" called Merlin.

"Can goblins fly? Where?" Barron couldn't help but look back, "The cold sky, not even the eagle beasts, where are the goblins?"

Then there was a loud bang, and he felt like he had been pushed off a cliff.

"Morin!!!" the Kadir boy screamed, and the burly figure sped away.

"It was Aeno who pushed it, I don't have that much strength!!" Merlin shouted loudly into the distance with his hands trumpeted.

"Aeno, I'll jump with you. ”

The little vampire nodded, tiptoeed, and fell gracefully downward.

The boy jumped off the cliff after him.

"Ahahahaha......" The boy tried to widen his eyes, watching himself low over the peaks and rocks, falling rapidly, it was really interesting.

In a few breaths, he had passed through the clouds, and the academy district by the lake was in view, and Merlin could even see Eminor in front of him, and Barron a little earlier, who was almost down to the tower of the castle, and his speed was noticeably slower.

The wind in my ears warmed up, the birds were left behind, and most of the college scenery was in full view.

There was a wave of resistance, and Merlin felt the speed of the descent slow, slower and slower, until it was almost like a fallen leaf, and he was over the castle.

Landing lightly on the platform of the castle, the first thing that catches the eye is the pale Marcus and the even paler Barron.

"Haha, Tevez, this is fun, let's go play again!" Shia's voice came from afar.

At the same time, another familiar voice from Morin came from the red-haired senior Mike Caviezer.

Before the others walked out of the passage, a reverberating shout had reached their ears: "Morin, you have become famous!"
