325 A.D., Xia. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's summer in June, and it's the hottest time of year in Matt. The scorching sun in the sky seems to vaporize the water of the whole world.

But for fire magicians, this season is their favorite season. The hot weather made the fire elemental active, and the fire mages were able to meditate twice as effectively as they did during this time, and the magic they cast was much more powerful than ever.

On a volcano east of the town of Mate, in the Empire of San Ponca in the province of Gulillo, there is a tall magic tower.

This is the fourth-level golden-rank mage of the fire system, Kane's mage tower. It is divided into three layers, in a square shape, and each layer is ten meters high.

There are also 4,000 square meters of land around the Mage Tower, all protected by stone walls. This land is all an annex of the Mage Tower, and is owned by Master Kane.

Mage Kane is the guardian of Matt Town, receiving offerings from Matt Town, protecting the safety of Matt Town and more than a dozen surrounding villages, and protecting the town and villages from powerful demonic beasts. Within the confines of this town, Master Kane is undoubtedly the most revered figure.

At this point, in the first floor of the Mage Tower.

A black-haired and black-eyed teenager sat cross-legged, breathing evenly, his eyes closed, and his hands forming meditation seals, as if he was in a meditative state.

The boy's name is Fang Long, he just turned sixteen this year, and he is the nephew of Master Kane.

Seven years ago, his parents were killed in an accident, leaving nine-year-old Fang Long alone. So, his uncle Kane took him to the Mage Tower and let him live with him.

Master Kane is a coarse man who doesn't know how to take care of children at all.

Fortunately, Fang Long is a relatively easy child to feed, his hobby is to read, no matter what kind of book it is, even if it is a boring magic theory book, he picks up a book and squats in the corner, and he can spend several days in peace.

Kane simply placed him on the first floor of the Mage Tower, where Kane had a collection of various magical theories and magical memorabilia.

Here, Fang Long was at home, and began to read the various books on magic in the mage tower's collection. By now, the collection of books in the mage's tower had been read by him.

The accumulation of seven years has given him a wealth of knowledge of magic theory.

This year, after he turned sixteen, his uncle Kane finally began to teach him the basics of a magician, 'meditation', in preparation for training him to become a magician.

Magician is a profession that requires a lot of mental power. And sixteen years old is the period when a person's mental power is officially matured, so most magicians only start formal cultivation at this age.

Meditation is the foundation of magicians, not only to increase the spiritual power of magicians, but also to integrate the magical elements between heaven and earth during meditation to produce magic in the body.

Of course, fusing elements also involves the issue of magical talent, which is elemental affinity.

The higher a mage's elemental affinity, the more magical elements can be fused with each time he meditates, and the more magic will be generated in his body. And vice versa, if you don't have an elemental affinity, you can't fuse magical elements at all.

When Fang Long began to learn meditation, his progress was rapid.

In ten minutes, he put himself in a state of mental stagnation.

After another half hour, I successfully condensed my energy into a bundle and let my consciousness enter the meditation space! This shows that he has perfect control over his mental power.

At that time, Kane, who was beside him to guide him in meditation, was very excited, and he didn't expect Fang Long to have such a talent in meditation.

You must know that for a magic apprentice with ordinary qualifications, it would take ten days and half a month just to condense his spiritual power into a bundle. It can be said that it is extremely rare for someone like Fang Long to successfully enter a meditative state within an hour after receiving a meditation technique!

But...... Subsequently, although Fang Long had been in a meditative state, various magical elements were floating around him. But none of the magical elements chose to integrate into his body!

In this case, there is only one explanation - Fang Long's elemental affinity is zero! His body is almost a magical insulator, and it can't be fused with the elements at all!

If you can't fuse the magic element, you can't create magic in your body. You can't be a magician without magic.

In this way, although Fang Long was able to meditate smoothly, it could only allow him to increase some mental power.

Uncle Kane suddenly became very melancholy.

What about the pit daddy, this is!

His precious nephew obviously has a strong level of mental power control, and he has entered a meditative state in less than an hour.9 With a wealth of knowledge of magic theory, it can be said that he has the perfect template for a magic apprentice. But why can't you have a little more magical elemental talent?

Even if it was only a little bit, with the support of his rich knowledge of magic theory, he was sure that Fang Long would definitely become a good magic master!

This incident made Master Kane depressed for many days.

But talent is innate, if you don't have it, you don't have it, and you can't get it if you want it. No matter how depressed Kane was, he couldn't make Fang Long become talented.

……

……

After Fang Long knew that he didn't have an elemental affinity, he was always a little sad in the depths of his heart. It's just that he doesn't show his sadness, and at the age of sixteen, he is much more mature than his peers.

He still likes to read every day, and he still meditates.

"Huh......" As the meditation ended, Fang Long exhaled a deep breath. Meditation could not make him magical, only mentally refined.

From learning to meditate to now, in the past half a month, he has not given up meditation, because he is still unwilling in his heart.

Becoming a magician was a desire that began to emerge from his uncle Kane since he was a child.

Why do you have to become a mage?

Perhaps there are various factors, and he himself can't tell.

But he just wanted to. There aren't so many whys.

"Aaron, are you there?" At this moment, Uncle Kane's voice sounded in the first floor of the Mage Tower.

However, the Kanes are not on the first floor, but on the third floor of the Mage Tower. The Mage's Tower contains a Sound Transmission Stone, which allows Kane to carry his voice to the first level.

"Yes, uncle. What's the matter?" Fang Long put down the book and replied loudly.

"Hehe, you help me talk to Hei Shun and ask her to tidy up the open space under the right side of the Mage Tower. I'll go down and experiment with a new fourth-order magic after about a magic hour, and this new magic may be more extensive, so that she can clear as much of a larger area as possible. Kane replied with a smile, "Taking advantage of the fact that the fire element has been more active recently, I want to try to make this new magic test successful."

"Okay." Fang Long answered, picked up the heavy magic theory book in his hand, got up and walked towards the outside of the mage tower.

At this time, under a pergola outside the Mage's Tower.

A skinny black girl was supporting her chin with one hand, yawning sleepily.

This girl is none other than Hei Shun, a servant of Master Kane, who is eighteen years old this year. She has been brought in by Master Kane since she was twelve years old, and is responsible for taking care of Master Kane's life and handling some of the chores in the Mage Tower.

Every month, I go to the town to buy daily necessities, cook rice, and clean up the vicinity of the Mage Tower. and issuing tasks for Mage Kane to the small town mercenary center, all of which she did single-handedly, and she was a very hardworking and capable woman.

Fortunately, this is the Otherworld, otherwise a single charge of child labor would have been enough for Master Kane to drink.

The door of the mage tower slowly opened, and Fang Long, holding a thick magic theory book in his hand, walked out of the mage tower and shouted to the black girl from a distance: "Hei Shun."

The thin and black girl under the pergola raised her head in a daze and looked in the direction of the Mage Tower, and when she saw Fang Mai, she responded: "Young Master Fang Long, is there something wrong?"

"Well, after one more magic hour, my uncle wants to experiment with a new one. Please tidy up the field under the Mage Tower, clear a clearing, the bigger the better. Fang Long said to Hei Shun with a smile.

The area to the right of the Mage's Tower has long been where Kane tested his new magic.

However, not long ago, Mage Kane ordered a batch of monsters from the town to be used to make magic scrolls. In the past few days, while the sun is shining, these hides are often exposed to the sun in this clearing.

"Okay, Young Master Fang Long." Heishun nodded in response, then got up and walked towards the clearing.

"I'll help you." Fang Long put down the heavy books, and it was inevitable that he would have to carry the animal skins to sort them out, so he ran up to help......
