The cold walls, the smell of parchment and wood chips rotting in the air, the dark wooden shelves filled with books, the apprentices in dark robes quietly shuttled in front of the bookcases, but except for the pages turning, only the faint sound of breathing wafted in their ears. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Silent and orderly, like a church, this is what Loren says from the bottom of his heart.

Apprentices kept passing by him, and even Loren could detect the suspicious look in his eyes out of the corner of his eye. This academy is not big, so most of the apprentices know each other, and of course their appearance will be more abrupt, and he can even hear the deliberately low-pitched conversations behind his back, as well as pointing fingers behind his back.

If he had time, Loren didn't mind pretending to be an ignorant new apprentice, satisfying the vanity of those apprentices with a question or two, and then blending into their circle, after all, it would also make it much easier for him to be in this academy in the future.

But it's a pity that what he lacks most now is time, so Loren doesn't bother to pay attention to these people.

For three days after the day he got Ain's note, Loren had spent his time continuing to build and practice spells, and he felt that his spiritual temple still had a lot of room to play, and the threat coefficient of the magic he was trying so far was infinitely close to zero, so in the end, Loren began to try to push the spell back.

Spells and magic are the regularization of the power of the void, like turning symbols into words, illusions into reality. Therefore, if you can disassemble its structure step by step according to the order of the spells and work backwards on the principles of its formation, you can strengthen your understanding of the void, and it is much faster than simply learning.

But the speed of progress was still difficult to satisfy him, and the little wizard was still specialized in alchemy, and was not very good at occultism or spells, so it was difficult for Loren to help him much. So he thought of trying his luck at the library, and by the way, he was looking for a certain "pretentious genius".

Although the other party is not very easy to get along with, but considering that he has a request for others, as long as his vanity is satisfied as much as possible, it does not seem to be a particularly difficult thing to communicate.

"What's going on?"

The young wizard lay lazily in his chair, obviously already knowing who was behind him, so he deliberately used this tone of "wanting to refuse and welcome".

For a moment, Loren suddenly wanted to roll his eyes like Ain. But he still resisted this irrational impulse: "It's nothing, just some questions about the occult, it's not a big deal. ”

"However, since Isaac you are so busy now...... Loren also deliberately pinched it: "Then I should probably go to Ain." ”

"Ain?!" Isaac, who had just been in good spirits, immediately jumped up: "What are you going to do with Ain, I'm the smartest of our three apprentices!"

"And you might as well try to learn the occult from Ain Rand and see if you can teach the rabbit to speak, the latter seems to have some viability!" The angry Isaac looked at Loren's mocking expression and immediately deflated: "Okay, if there is anything you want to ask, just ask." ”

"Something like this, I've been trying to parse the structure of the spell by pushing it back lately, and then ......"

"Let's decipher its principles and patterns!" Isaac finished speaking before Loren, and the young wizard's eyes lit up, "Yes, why didn't I think of such a good way to learn the occult before?"

"And it's also not very useful for potatoes whose brains are flooded, it's too advanced for them. Pointing to the apprentices gathered in the distance, Isaac excitedly continued, "But it's still a very interesting way, what's wrong, you must have a problem, right?"

"It's still too slow, and I need more books about the Void, more detailed, on how to use the power of the Void. Loren said, "Of course...... It's just about academics. ”

"Hmm...... So you need a good librarian to help you find these documents, and then someone who can answer your questions. Isaac nodded very seriously, and then immediately stood up: "But now that I'm here, you don't need any of them!"

"Let's get started, Senior Loren, we've got a whole afternoon to fix your little troubles!"

Looking at the bookshelves that had already run to the distance to rummage through the cabinets, the smiling Loren couldn't help but think of what some people had said...... What the martyrs wanted most was generosity, and a pretentious man like Isaac Grantham longed more than to be needed by others, otherwise he would not find a sense of existence.

As long as he casts the bait, he himself will rush up impatiently, solve all the processes and troubles for himself, and then wait for himself to show an incredible look of surprise like a puppy wagging his tail.

At this moment, Isaac was completely devoid of the lazy appearance he had just had, and walked to the bookcase like a precise hound, took the one he needed and turned to the next one, as if a map with a route was floating in front of his eyes, telling him the exact location of each book.

The whole process took less than a quarter of an hour, and Isaac returned to square one, leaving a thick dossier in front of Loren: "Although you haven't started reading yet, I can tell you that no wizard has ever studied the occult in a similar way to you. ”

"But in some spell literature, it is true that some wizards have used similar methods to parse spells in the past, but most of them have only been for low-level spells. Before Loren could speak, Isaac had already picked up the dossier and turned the page for him: "I think it may be of some significance to you. ”

"Wait...... Have you read all the books in this library?" asked Loren tentatively.

"I don't think your rhetoric is accurate at all. Isaac snorted reservedly: "In my own way, with all the knowledge in this room, I can know exactly which bookcase it is hidden in, which page of which book." If not, someone must have taken it or lost it!"

"Sorry...... Loren smiled apologetically, he suddenly realized that this could be a great opportunity, but he couldn't be too abrupt, he had to take the initiative to tell himself when the other party wasn't paying attention.

The advantage of having a genius by his side is that the other party only needs a few words to make the problems that those apprentices rack their brains as easy as one plus one equals two, and Isaac's super memory also saves Loren the time to turn the book. Even in the field of spells, which the other party is not good at, Isaac's understanding is better than Ain's.

That's why the little wizard keeps saying that he's a pretentious bastard, but at the same time has to admit that the other person's talent is indeed beyond his own. According to Loren's understanding, the guy in front of him, who speaks faster than he can turn a book, may not be ignorant of human affairs, and may have deliberately pretended to be like this.

But what's wrong with that? Is Ain Rand really so naïve that he doesn't have the slightest secret that no one knows? So it doesn't matter at all, as long as the other party can actually help him, Loren doesn't care whether the other party is really the same as he seems.

Especially since he's not a guy who looks the same on the outside.

"Anyway, this way of pushing back the structure of the spell is good, but the flaws are obvious, and simple low-level spells will do little to help you, just a pure waste of this brilliant attention. For the first time, Isaac showed a somewhat difficult expression: "Maybe this is one of the reasons why those incompetent spellcasters can only be tricks for the rest of their lives." ”

"So...... Do you know of some high-level spell?" Loren said inadvertently.
