Chapter 691: Mage
The wisp of green smoke was so thin that it dissipated between breaths, and the boy was immediately free from the illusion.
"Wizards have inadvertently left behind too many valuable treasures that they don't even realize they are aware of, because they are too ordinary for them.
If it weren't for the money addict in my family, I would still ignore it.
Heh, it's a headache and a blessing at the same time.
Once, as my power grew, I thought the world was getting smaller, only to realize that I was so wrong. Now that the wizards are in the wider world, they no longer have the energy to take care of you as much as we do.
We're still there, but we're not far behind to show the magic of what they do. They don't even need to show it, like my Bran......
Alas-
Now he is a miracle of magic in itself. The old way of life has been perfectly reproduced, and it has not changed in the slightest. Joy, anger and sorrow, all emotional changes are so real. Even if you know it's fake, you can't help but want to believe it - he's still him.
To be with him and to be with magic day and night is both our luck and misfortune. I never know what he has become of now, and what he will become.
Sorry for the distance......"
Sensing the gaffe, Dani straightened up and continued: "Back then, with the construction of the cycle, the cruel competition also began. The creatures living in the Northland today are the winners of that competition, and they deserve our attention.
It's not just magic that finds a way out, but so does life on earth. When they are intertwined, they give rise to many miracles.
To put it another way, they are even better than us. After all, under the maintenance of wizards, we have the upper hand, but what about them?
No one cared for them, and no one cared if they lived or died, but they still found a way out. Today, they are using their lives to interpret the understanding of magic. From this point of view, you will find that they are more in tune with the magic than we are.
The sorcerer did all this by accident, and it will be done to you.
How fortunate our generation is to live with and be a part of the lives of wizards. It is this luck that makes everything come too easily, and makes us lack the spirit of exploration.
But unlike you, they are no longer able to distract you from taking care of you, and we are not strong enough to explain everything to you. You need to rely on yourselves, and you need to use the resources around you to find answers.
That's not a bad thing.
Wizards are not omniscient, they can also make mistakes and have false perceptions. The answers they give are not guaranteed to be correct. You may be able to discover and correct these mistakes and find your own way.
You know, our wizards have done all this, but Bran has always thought it was a mistake. β
The boy nodded, "I've heard the teacher say that the Great Wizard thinks it's a favor from fate. β
"Yes, fate. He once thought that fate would favor you as mages. β
The ancient tree on the side complained in a low voice: "Don't tell him this, it will make him feel proud." β
The young man's eyes rolled, "That's why you took me as an apprentice, right?"
"Didn't you explain it to him?" Dani shook her head and smiled, "If you look closely, the first mage of the Northlands appeared here, only to awaken to become a wizard. β
Seeing the boy's eyes light up, Dani smiled and asked, "You should have guessed who it was, right?"
"Siri!"
Dani nodded and continued, "Actually, this is the place where mages originate. Your teacher is only upholding the mage's legacy, not because of some of Bran's words. β
"Mageβ" Dani sighed slightly, "Back then, Bran thought that mages had more freedom, and therefore more possibilities and room for development. Perhaps, this is a profession that requires more talent than wizards, and he is a little too high-esteemed. β
Speaking of Bran, the ancient tree casually asked, "Is he okay?"
"It's still the same, often in a daze alone, but it's getting longer and longer......"
......
"These plants and trees may be able to become a way out for the family. Jenny looked at the family in front of him with a rare serious side, "I understand you, it's hard to have true piety. Just like you did with your uncle on the throne, there is no real awe. β
"Be careful!"
But his father's stern tone didn't have any effect.
"Hypocritical disguises may deceive the world, but they can't deceive the gods, they just don't care. Jenny spread her hands, "Of course, I don't care if someone breaks it."
The gods allow people to live in disguise, but they die. At that point, where do we go from here?
I have been to the place where the dead rest, the Netherworld. There, the shallow camouflage of the world can be seen through even a watchdog. β
Father showed a rare smile, "Since you want to help us, don't sell it." β
"Mage. β
Someone couldn't help but laugh, "Do we need to learn those spells that you discovered?"
Without waiting for Jenny to refute, his father had already begun to administer justice: "Be serious, don't interrupt Jenny." β
"I just looked at my younger sister, who was still young, and couldn't help but think of ...... past."
With the man's whisper, Jenny continued unconcernedly, "Through these plants and trees, you can clearly and intuitively feel the magic and have a solid foundation. β
"Is it just the basics?"
Jenny hesitated, "I still need to offer a faith to the goddess of magic." β
The father sighed, "We have believed in the light. β
"One more faith, and it's all right. β
Seeing that his father fell silent, the man was unwilling to be lonely and looked for trouble again: "But I have seen that some birds and beasts can also use a single magic. Do they also have faith?"
Jenny snorted, "If you can get the secret of magic from them, of course you don't need to believe it. But can you?
You need the medium to help you ignite your magic and make it work for its true power. β
If this is the case, the light can also give similar powers. β
This time, the silent father did not say anything to stop it.
"Yes, the gods are able to bestow power on them. But have you gained it?" said Jenny, as she looked at her brother, "but unfortunately I have not been able to find this gift in you. β
Then, he looked around again: "Nothing." β
"If I believe in the goddess of magic, can I easily unleash magic?"
Jenny sighed, "There's nothing 'easy' in the world, don't look at me like that, I know what you're thinking." Or rather, jealousy or something.
No, no power is easy to obtain, not even the Northlanders. And in order to gain this power, I went through a trial with them, and I either succeeded or died.
I'm just offering you a new option. β
Jenny sighed again, "As Bran said, 'How you choose is your own business. ββ
......
Just like Jenny, after integrating into the Bran family, it is inevitable that there will be some influence in words and deeds. At this time, Lu Yi was also carrying out similar persuasion.
A few small spells came out casually, and everyone was stunned.
"The most valuable lesson I have learned over the years is that there is a reward. After marrying into the Bran family, I realized that even my husband needed to go through trials. β
Seeing everyone's expressions of great surprise, Lu Yi nodded, "Yes, it's the ancient trial of the Northland that you remember.
That's right, I got through by luck.
It was then that I understood how the Northlanders learned to swim. β
As she spoke, Lu Yi couldn't help but smile, "Magic will bring power to the family, but this power can no longer be exchanged for real benefits.
In this world, at least, devout faith is more important than strength. Even if you can't get something during your lifetime, you will be compensated after death.
In my opinion, the stage of magic is not here, but outside. β
Father whispered softly, "Expeditionβ"
"Yes. β
"It's dangerous, isn't it?"
"Yes. β
"You want us to get on board?"
"I just want the young people to get in. Maybe he will die, or he may open up a new world. Father, this world is too small......"
