Chapter 462: Engagement

Ryan found that it was not an exaggeration for his uncle to ask those who were communicating to take out the treasures at the bottom of the box, for example, Professor Yan Yun, the heir of the Yanshi puppet, used her family's ancestral humanoid puppet making plan to exchange Ryan for the production method of the Rose Maidens. Naturally, this kind of communication does not include core motivations, because these core motivations reflect the cornerstone of one's magical learning, and if it is not a system, even if it is not a system, it does not make much sense to get someone else's.

In addition to this, Ryan also received instruction from his uncle on magical botany, as well as a lot of magical combat practice. There was also some European magic that he hadn't learned yet.

Yes, you read that right, it's European magic. As my uncle said, the Celestial Empire has never severed its communication with the West. This includes learning about the magic of the Western world as well as Africa. Although this kind of learning does not allow you to learn some of the ancestral magic of some families, you can still learn a complete set of various commonly used magic.

"Apparition and some housework magic are the only Western magic that is popular on a large scale in the Celestial Empire. Uncle said with a smile. "I have to admit that these spells are much better than our own traditional magic, so it took us a long time to integrate them into our own magic system after we got them. ”

This is the third week after Ryan came to the Celestial Empire, and the engagement ceremony is only three days away. Uncle decides to take advantage of this last chance for Ryan and Hermione to learn to apparition under his care. According to him, other magic can be taught by oneself with a book, but this kind of magic involving space still needs to be carried by someone. Not to mention that my uncle thought that this kind of running magic was much more useful than the magic used in battle.

"I'm telling you, you can't be too shameful in real war. Whatever you can win, you can come. Otherwise, you will definitely suffer a big loss. For example, this phantom shifter can allow you to strategize in time when you can't beat it, and then whether you come back to take revenge after practicing in the future or find a companion to help, it is much better than stumbling in place. "Before teaching the illusion, my uncle began to teach Ryan the experience of the two of them in battle. While this may not sound like a glorious experience, it is very useful.

After chattering for a while, the real teaching began. Uncle's expression also became very serious. "The core of this magic is the goal, the determination, the calmness, that is, you need to focus your attention on your goal, that is, to think about where you want to go; Then make up your mind to occupy the space you want, let the desire to reach flood every smallest part of your body, and finally spin in place, let yourself enter the void, and move calmly! and you will reach your destination. ”

After saying that, my uncle gave them a demonstration and moved from the front of them to the back of them. "There are some high-level wizards who can be dual-minded in battle, using apparition to quickly change their position, which can give them a big advantage in battle. Of course, if the level is not enough, the phantasmal transformation in battle will only split itself. ”

Next is the practice time, which may have crossed a certain sensitivity to space that life and death bring to two people. After three hours, the two of them were able to teleport back and forth from several designated locations without any problems.

"Not bad. Uncle nodded. "I've heard that your English school uses 12 hours to learn this magic, and in this state, you can be considered a genius to learn it in three hours. ”

In the next two days, in addition to reading books, Ryan and the others learned a special method of use that the Celestial Empire summed up after in-depth research and analysis of phantom migration: short-distance teleportation between battles.

After two days of practice, Ryan and Hermione had finally learned the technique that required two minds. It has to be said that for them who are good at melee combat, this skill is far more important than for other wizards. For example, the average wizard may not have imagined that his opponent could suddenly appear next to him and raise his hand and stab after firing a spell at him from a distance.

Just as they were practicing, my uncle stopped them: "Okay, stop practicing, you need to rest well." ”

"We don't feel tired! And it's noon. Ryan looked at his uncle and asked curiously. "I think we can practice for a few more hours and rest in the evening after eating. ”

"It's good to be studious, and I guess that's why you're so good. But you'd better rest now, because tomorrow noon is your engagement ceremony. Uncle said with a kind smile.

"Oh my God, these two days have been so busy, I almost forgot about it. Hermione looked excited. "I didn't prepare anything, what should I do? This is my engagement ceremony, and I've been a little too obsessed with studying in the past two days. ”

"Don't worry. Uncle pressed his hands down and made a slightly calmer posture. "We were all ready, and after lunch we went straight back to the village. Tomorrow morning you just have to follow the arrangements of those people at home, rest assured, they are all experienced people, and I will make sure that there will be no problems when I let you play tomorrow. Not to mention that the engagement ceremony in the Celestial Empire is not the same as that in the West, tomorrow the core is your parents, you just need to stand there. ”

The uncle's comfort did not reassure the two of them much, even if the signature dishes in the cafeteria at noon that day, which were their favorite squirrel fish and sweet and sour tenderloin, could not whet their appetite.

The cafeteria of the Celestial Dynasty Fangshi Academy is quite the style of the university cafeteria of Ryan's previous life, surrounded by a large glass window, behind which are all kinds of food, and in the middle is a large number of tables and stools for four or six people. There are no house-elves here, but the wizards in charge of logistics can still use magic to cook large amounts of delicious food in a short period of time.

For example, Hermione had bought three thick Celestial Dynasty recipes to learn to make the above things, according to her, since she was going to get married, there were some things that she always had to learn to do. But for some reason, Ryan was much faster than Hermione when it came to learning these three recipes.

Tomorrow was the engagement ceremony, and although they didn't need to do anything according to their uncle, Ryan and Hermione were still very nervous, and they both went to bed early that night, but they didn't fall asleep until late.

This did not affect anything, and the sun rose as scheduled the next morning in the tension between the two of them. After breakfast early in the morning, Ryan and the two parents who had rushed over from Qiantang yesterday began to pack up.

They are dressed in a modern style according to the habits of the Celestial Empire, for example, the parents of both sides only need to dress formally. However, there was a small accident in between: Mr. Granger wore a tuxedo in order to look formal, which caused Ryan's grandfather to pull his father Lambert into a tunic suit.

The same goes for Ryan and Hermione's clothing style, they simply come out in their own school uniform robes. According to Lane's grandfather, you are now students, so the best way to wear them is to wear a school uniform.

As he said before, the core of the Celestial Empire-style engagement ceremony is indeed not the two people who are engaged, and the ceremony is over after the parents of both sides exchange big red posts with the eight characters of their birthdays.

The only place where Ryan was needed was when Uncle added the process of putting Hermione's name on the family tree after learning that the two had been blessed with the Phoenix. According to him, those who receive the blessing of the phoenix are loyal and steadfast in their love. Therefore, it can be written on the genealogy in advance to comfort the ancestors.

When it was time for lunch, they could finally breathe a sigh of relief. This also means that the main goal of coming to the Celestial Empire this time has been completed. Therefore, the two of them seemed much more leisurely at the table, except for greeting some elders, they were savoring the food on the table, after all, this kind of sumptuous and local banquet is rare.

In short, the main task of coming to the Celestial Empire this time was completed, and Ryan finally got rid of the title of a single dog for two lifetimes.
