15. The Reborn and the Sons of the Plane (Pseudo)
As a city of mages, Dalaran's library naturally can't be as full of bookshelves as all kinds of universities and public libraries on the planet. Although there are no sci-fi gadgets such as hanging light screens, it is very easy for people to appear in front www.biquge.info of the corresponding bookshelf according to their needs.
In the redevelopment of Dalaran in the future, it is common to see a particularly precious book, placed in a corner of the city, as if anyone could take it or destroy it, but when you turn it over, the book simply disappears.
This is actually proof that Dalaran's book management system is working. It seems to be disorderly, but it is actually orderly, at least in the many years that Arthas has been a prince, he has not heard of any particularly important books that Dalaran has lost. I haven't heard of any cases where Dalaran can't borrow books.
For example, the large bookshelf that appeared in front of Arthas was as tall as three people, and ten people couldn't match the width of their hands, but Arthas's mind clearly reflected the name of each of the books on it, even if he couldn't see the spine of the books with his eyesight.
"Arcane is such a magical thing......"
Arthas thought as he pulled out a copy of "Arcane Principles", his idea was very clear, that is, starting from the basics, with astral travel as the ultimate goal, read all the relevant theoretical books, and then apply them to his own hands of holy light, and finally achieve the goal of gaining power from the astral plane.
Time passed quickly, at least as Alsace woke up from the apparently basic book in front of him, and the sore feet told him that he had been standing here for at least a few hours.
"Well, I'm a little hungry...... "Touching his rumbling belly, Arthas prepared to leave here to prepare dinner, "cook your own meals, so ...... Feed? ”
Unexpectedly, Arthas turned around in a daze, triggering the collision, and he was met by a child who looked about his age, except that the child on the other side had black hair and had an interesting shaved priest's head.
"Ah, I'm sorry," Arthas hurriedly reached out to support the other party, "Are you alright?" ”
"No," ...... glanced at Artace, and the child, who was about the same height as Arthas, shook his head, "You're new here?" ”
"Huh? Is it easy to see? ”
"Because you don't smell of arcane, and most of the apprentices who have taken classes won't stay here," the child said flatly, turning his head in the direction of the bookshelf, "Ah...... It was refreshed to a high place again......"
"I'll help you get ......" Arthas subconsciously wanted to help, but saw a flash of light above the bookshelf, and there was already an extra book in the child's hand, "It seems that I don't need it anymore." ”
"Even so, thank you," the child nodded at Arthas, "and it's rare for people here to be so willing to help others. ”
"I am a paladin, and it is a knight's virtue to help the weak...... Ah, I don't mean anything else. ”
"I don't have that inexplicable conceit, don't be too careful," the child's eyes flashed, "but ...... Paladin? Does the Silver Hand also allow a child to become a paladin? ”
"You know the Silver Hand? Ah, yes, the Knights are now famous," Arthas was slightly stunned, "but I'm not a knight, I'm just an apprentice with knighthood as a goal, and you're just a child, don't talk so old-fashioned!" ”
"Oh......"
The child nodded, then turned to walk in the direction he had left. But after walking a distance of about four or five steps, he suddenly turned his head again.
"Paladin's Apprentice...... Is it to find out how energy works? In that case, you won't need that book," he gestured to the Arcane Principles in Arthas's hand, "The basic workings of the arcane are completely incompatible with the Light, but have more advanced theories in common...... For example, these books. ”
The child reached out and clicked on the bookshelf next to him a few times, and then saw three books fly out of the summer vacation and staggered in front of Alsace. Alsace reached out and took it, and found that the three books were "The Extended Theory of Mental Consciousness", "The Theoretical Correlation of Decay, Fusion, and Change System Spells", and "A Study in Phase"
"The Light is an energy driven primarily by the spiritual will, so the doctrine of calculation and mimicry is not suitable, and although these books are simpler, they can be helpful." The child said, "Well, it may be a little difficult for beginners, but since you have started to teach yourself, it should be fine." ”
Looking at the book in his hand, and then at the back of the child who turned to continue walking, Arthas suddenly felt blessed and said, "So, can you come and teach me about the contents of these books?" ”
"No, actually, I've only been in contact with ......," the child hesitated, "However, if it's a mutual discussion, it's okay, my residence is in Building B under the red tower on the east side, which is a detached house, so you can go at any time." ”
Then, the child disappeared in the light of the teleportation spell.
"Detached ...... Sure enough, it's not a simple person......"
What the little one can't see is the number on the panel that is floating in front of Artace's eyes at the moment.
13, this is the data of the full attributes of the little kid just now. You know, on the way to the library, many mages who are called teachers by others have a research score of only 13. And just now, this kid has a score of 13 for all attributes, and in that trait column, there are two big green signs:
Genius: Where mortals will work hard for a lifetime, some people are born there--+5 for your all-ability rating
Favor of the Light: Whether the Light is an unknown energy or a gift from Naru, you are its darling, with +3 All-Power Rating
Although there were question marks other than the appearance and these data, it could not stop Arthas's curiosity about the child just now. After all, with the experience of two lifetimes, he is just a keen + scholar's evaluation, how can this person in front of him, who was born with genius and Holy Light's favor evaluation, just a small apprentice!
Although I haven't heard of any talents besides Luo Ning and Gianna Dalaran in my previous life, how can I not hug this thigh in front of me quickly, maybe I only need the other party to click, and many confusions can be solved! By the way, he said where he lived...... Building B under the Red Tower...... Wait, Red Tower?
As mentioned before, there are seven towers in Dalaran, except for the white tower in the center, the remaining six mage towers belong to the six people, and this red tower corresponds to the famous Kael'thas Sunstrider. As for Building X under a certain tower, it is usually where the apprentice of the six-person person lives.
"That guy was Kael'thas apprentice?"
To say that for this Kael'thas, Arthas's mood is still quite complicated.
In the first life, the two people were the legendary rivals in love, and together with the later national enemies and family hatreds, they didn't say that they didn't like each other, and they had reached the point of killing them quickly. But in the end, it was Kael'thas who was pushed first, and to be honest, it was quite dark humor in retrospect.
In the second life, the two are comrades-in-arms who fight side by side, and in order to fight against Gianna, who has become the Lich King, Arthas and Kael'thas exchange information with each other and discuss how to deal with it. As a result, much of Arthas's knowledge of the arcane is still taught by Kael'thas - though most of it is known and not known.
However, in any case, Arthas and Kael'thas met "a long time later", at least when Arthas was about to become a paladin, and as for Gianna, who was not a very wonderful medium between the two, she is probably still playing somewhere in Kul Tiras. However, even without Gianna as the setting factor, Arthas did not think that his meeting with Kael'thas would be a particularly friendly situation.
The reason is simple: the High Elves are a very exclusive race, and when the opponent is human, I am afraid that it will have to be extra vigilant and strict.
"Ah, that's ......"
Arthas hurriedly called out the child's panel, and after looking at the head of the priest who looked like a mushroom for a long time, Arthas was relieved that he did not see any High Elf features.
"It seems that even without the help of this thing, people can still see that fellow's talent," Arthas thought to himself, "for Kael'thas, who is still smooth sailing like a child of the plane, if he is not super dazzling, how can he cross this obvious racial barrier and take in disciples?" ”
You must know that the fact that your apprentice will die before yourself is really not a happy experience. Although elves are xenophobic, they do not mean that they are cold-blooded, and they are harsh on human beings, in fact, part of the reason is that they may be afraid of the separation between life and death.
After checking out the borrowing formalities, Arthas left the library with the three books, and after a moment of hesitation against the background of the sunset sky, he turned and walked in the direction of the Red Tower. Coincidentally, the Red Tower was located to the east of Dalaran, which happened to be in the opposite direction of the setting sun, so along the way, Arthas watched his shadow gradually elongate, like a huge spirit behind it, until Arthas came to the door of the detached house that the child said, and his shadow was also cast on the Red Tower.
At the same time, in front of his shadow, an elf wearing a bright red robe appeared in front of the gate of the Red Tower.
As expected, the meeting with Kael'thas began ten years ahead of schedule.
