Chapter 12: Strange Middle-Aged Man

......

When filling in his name, he hesitated, wondering if he should write the name Thundercloud, and finally felt that the risk was great, so he gave up.

The name Xiao Lei is very good, he is used to it.

Glancing back at the book of honor, I suddenly felt a little melancholy. Although he didn't have a good impression of this magic academy, he always felt a little desolate when he saw it fall.

Just like when he left the Temple of Clouds, the trajectory of his life suddenly took a sharp turn, and in the end he even fell to the point of incognito.

Man is a sentimental animal, and Thundercloud reopened the magic book and read the contents carefully.

He found some clues: the four magic in the back, and their authors were Su Zhixuan, Calais, Taylor, and Clark. That is, the first few students on the honor list.

It can be inferred from this that this so-called magic book, which originally existed only as a book of honor, later returned to the magic academy, and for some unknown purpose, actually copied a fifth-level magic on the blank page at the back.

With him taking the lead, three more people copied the sixth-level magic in this honor book one after another. Over time, this book of honor became a legendary magic book.

Lei Yun thought it was funny, the so-called legends and stories might just be unintentional actions of others.

At the same time, he also sighed, so he turned to the blank page at the back, and wrote down a magic he was best at.

That's right, he wrote about the seventh-level magic: Fire Dragon Technique!

Because the seventh-level magic was so complicated, he had to shrink the "font" several times so that it was almost unrecognizable to the naked eye, and even then, it still took up three pages.

The metal magic book was only twelve pages in total, and when Thundercloud finished writing, he found that there were not many blank pages. Your magic is taking up too much space, should I erase it?

Just as he was hesitating, a voice suddenly said in the distance, "This little friend, do you also want to open this magic book?" I believe that as long as you work hard to learn magic, you will definitely be able to do it. ”

Your sister, I've already opened it, okay?

Thundercloud looked up and found a middle-aged man walking in the distance, this guy actually had a silver three-star level magic badge on his chest.

Lei Yun was taken aback, a magician of this level was already qualified to participate in the selection of national magicians.

Lei Yun hurriedly stuffed the magic book in his hand under the table, who knew that the book was too heavy, so he heard a "bang", it fell directly to the ground, and almost broke his foot.

The middle-aged man made a straight face: "Little friend, this is your mistake, if you want to open this magic book, you must rely on your true skills." Throwing it on the ground is terrible, and I can tell you that you will never be able to open this black magic book this way. Pick it up!"

Thunderclouds looked at each other with a confused expression......

Seeing that the latter had already ascended the podium, he hurriedly bent down and picked up the magic book, only to find that it had been closed.

The middle-aged man came to him: "What kind of student are you? ”

Thundercloud put the magic book back in its place: "I just came in this year, it's normal that you haven't seen it. ”

The middle-aged man looked at the magic book on the table, and then looked at the sign on Lei Yun's body: "Your name is Xiao Lei, right? You are very promising, and you want to challenge the legendary task that ranks first when you just come in." ”

"Huh?"

"In order to encourage you to learn magic, the Academy has specially arranged ten legendary missions for you. As long as you complete any of them, you can get great rewards. This black magic book is at the top of the list, and it has not been successfully challenged for more than 20 years. ”

"Yes...... Really?"

Thundercloud smiled comically and the expression on his face stiffened.

He suddenly felt that something was wrong, he hadn't been opened for more than 20 years, but now he was opened by himself, and if someone knew about it, he would definitely say that he was cheating. What's more, I am still a first-year student.

The middle-aged man looked a little sad: "Our dean has been waiting for a genius to come! Who knows that this day has never come." He is old, time is running out, and I really hope that he will be able to fulfill this last wish in his lifetime. ”

Thundercloud said comically, "If someone succeeds in opening this magic book, what reward will it be?"

The middle-aged man said solemnly: "There are several very powerful high-level magic spells recorded in the book, as long as you can turn on it, you can learn the knowledge inside." Isn't that the best reward?"

Thunderclouds were depressed for a while, is the magic of level 5 or 6 also called advanced? Are you kidding me!

The middle-aged man didn't notice his abnormality, but just gushed endlessly: "Speaking of this magic book, in fact, the dean used to secretly open it, hoping to see the name of a new student appear in it. Year after year has passed, and no one has ever challenged success. He despaired later, he was now too old to withstand this toss, so he never touched it again in all these years. ”

Thundercloud stared at him blankly, not knowing what to say......

I only heard the guy say again: "But then again, if there is really a genius in the academy, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entire academy, even if he doesn't come to check this magic book, it will eventually reach his ears." So there's no need to suffer from this every day, right?"

"This ...... It's hard to say!"

Thundercloud thought to himself, I've turned it on, but I don't want to make a big deal. Instead, I want to erase the signature on it now. So your argument doesn't hold true!

The middle-aged man sighed: "It's been twenty years, do you think this is the will of heaven?"

Thundercloud finally couldn't help but ask, "I'm curious, why is he obsessed with finding geniuses?"

The middle-aged man was silent for a long time, and finally said: "It doesn't hurt to tell you, our dean wants to find an heir, he may want to give him something, I don't know what it is." ”

Thundercloud scolded in his heart, how does this sound like a trap?

The middle-aged man asked rhetorically, "Who is your tutor?" It's class time, why are you still here?"

Lei Yun thought to himself, you have been talking non-stop, how can I have a chance to leave? At the moment, he said helplessly: "My mentor's name is Yan Xin. ”

"It turned out to be Yan Xin!" The middle-aged man frowned: "This is not good, I remember that he was one of the tutors in charge of Class E, and the elimination rate of your class is very high, is it okay for you to skip class like this?"

Lei Yun said with a dark face: "It should be okay." Which class are you in charge of?"

The middle-aged man said with a proud face: "I'm not in charge of these classes, I'm much better than them, I'm an expert in ancient magic." There are twenty-three kinds of magic compiled by my hands, in other words, even your mentors have to learn magic from me, do you understand?"

"I see. ”

Lei Yun thought to himself, isn't his job the same as what he did before?

He also translated countless ancient scrolls, and almost sorted out the ninth-level magic. Perhaps it was because of the discovery of a fragment of ninth-level magic that he was framed. One day, I want to regain what I lost.

The middle-aged man glanced at him, "Young man, what kind of magic are you good at?" As long as you study hard, I believe you can easily cope with the test at the end of this month. ”
