"Fifth floor? Ancient One Mage, are you talking about Lin Sen? Lao Feng was surprised, what did that kid do, even the ancient first mage was shocked, "Do you need me to go up and call him down?" ”

Ancient One Mage shook his head at him with a smile, then looked up again and then withdrew his gaze, and suddenly said something inexplicable to Lao Feng: "Wait a minute, if he comes down to settle the bill, you just look at the discount." ”

"Yes!" Although he didn't know why, Lao Feng, who was a loyal fan of the ancient mage, quickly nodded in response.

After finishing the order, Gu Yi looked at Natalia, who was standing silently on the side, and said:

"I always thought London was a lot closer than New York, or did you just like the damn weather in London either?"

The mage lineage on the earth, at different times and with different names, is now called Kama Taj because for the past five hundred years, the ancient one, as a supreme mage, has lived in the place of Kama Taj.

But before that, the name of the mage line was also called Greenwich, because Merlin, the supreme mage of the previous generation, the greatest magician of the Middle Ages, lived in Greenwich, London, and he was buried in Greenwich after his death.

Later, after the Ancient One took over the position of Supreme Mage, she had three huge Guardian Temples built on Earth to protect the Earth from the invasion of the Otherworld, among which the Guardian Temple in London was built on the graveyard of Master Merlin.

So, in Europe, there were many mages who were deeply influenced by Merlin.

The Ancient One knew that compared to himself, Mage Merlin's concept was more unrestrained and free, especially for the young man in front of him, if she wanted to learn magic, then she should go to London.

Hearing the mention of London, Natalia's face showed a sad look, "I don't want to learn the magic of making deals with the devil. ”

"Making a deal with the devil?" Gu Yi looked at the expression on her face, and heard a hint of overtone from this sentence, "Child, who are your parents?" ”

"My mother, she was a gypsy."

Natalia only said one sentence, but the ancient one understood that the gypsy race is a famous cross-border people, they have traveled all over the world, and each country calls them differently, if you go back in time, this nation has a unified and beautiful name: the bard.

Gypsy women, on the other hand, had a special gift that allowed them to communicate with demons and obtain all kinds of magic through sacrifices in the process, which led to a witch frenzy in the Middle Ages.

However, most of the mages who deal with the devil will basically be eroded by the darkness in the end, and they will not be able to escape the fate of soul fall.

When Natalia told her mother that she was a gypsy, the Ancient One could understand why she had come to New York instead of London.

Because, since he took over as the Supreme Mage, the mage line of the earth has been vaguely divided into the Kama Taj faction led by himself and the Greenwich faction who believe in Master Merlin.

The reason for this disagreement is that the Ancient One mage felt that it was the inherent duty of the mage to work hard to protect the earth from the intrusion of demon gods and maintain the super-stable state of the earth.

As the custodian of the Eye of Agamotto, the Ancient One himself holds the Time Stone, one of the Infinite Primordial Stones of the Universe, and is a cosmic-level powerhouse that can shock all planes.

Basically, she single-handedly blocked most of the threats to Earth from all sides, and even Odin, the father of the gods in Asgard, had to admit that this most powerful human in Midgard was the most powerful human.

Even so, the Greenwich faction in the Mage's line still disagrees with her ideas and actions.

Because the concept of the ancient one is to have the mage quietly guard the earth, unless necessary, she will not generally appear in front of ordinary people, and she takes the path of concentrating on cultivation, and opposes the practice of relying on dealing with demon gods in other planes in exchange for power.

On the contrary, Mage Merlin is a liberal, and it can be seen from the magic inheritance he recorded that this is a casual guy who has been unrestrained in his bones.

As the same Supreme Mage, Gu Yi couldn't say whether it was good or not, but she knew that not everyone could follow Master Merlin's approach. After all, there was only one greatest mage in the Middle Ages.

Throughout his life, Merlin has dealt with countless demons and even traded for the power of darkness, but he can maneuver between the various dark lords with his extraordinary skills, and he can always maintain his heart.

Therefore, I am afraid that no second person can master the method of spell learning he advocates except himself.

The Greenwich faction, who believe in Master Merlin, believes that mages should break this hermit-like life, and mages should not be trapped on earth all their lives, but should explore more planes, and freedom and unrestrainedness are the necessary elements to become a great mage.

Once mages are bound by simple mortal shackles, they limit their own abilities, which affects their personal development.

The Ancient One didn't bother to change their radical minds, but forbade them to trade for the dark powers, because so far, she hadn't found a good seedling among the mages of the Greenwich faction that could rival the Mage of Merlin.

After learning of Natalia's intention, Gu Yi bowed slightly, put his hand on her head and groaned for a while, surprised to find that the magic talent of the girl in front of him was not ordinarily high.

It's a pity, even so, Gu Yi clearly knew that she was not the one he was waiting for, so he had to say with a little regret:

"I can teach you about magic, but I can't take you as a disciple, and I need your help here."

"Can I know, Ancient One, what is the matter you want to ask me?" Although it is a pity that he could not be accepted as a disciple by the Ancient One Mage, Natalia is still even more strange, what is there that the Supreme Mage needs to ask for her help?

In other words, if the Supreme Mage can't settle the matter, then what can he do, he can only shout 666 like a salted fish, right?

"Hehe, this matter is actually not complicated, I want you to help me understand the guy on the fifth floor now." Seeing the strange expression on Natalia's face, Koichi knew what she was thinking and quickly explained it to her.

This time it was Lao Feng's turn to show a strange expression, understand Lin Sen? It feels like I know something terrible.

The mages on the earth all know that the ancient mage has been looking for a candidate for the next supreme mage for a long time, and she has no intention of handing over the position to her existing disciples, according to what the ancient mage said just now, don't forget that she also let herself give Lin Sen a discount when checking out!

Hmm, I can't continue to think about it, Lao Feng stubbornly cut off his divergent thinking, it seems that he is close to the truth of the facts.

"That guy on the fifth floor? Okay, I will. After the ancient one said this, Natalia was also a little interested.

Unbeknownst to the Ancient One, the two of them had all sorts of thoughts in their minds, and they were completely different from what she had thought.

The reason why she wanted Natalia to help her understand Lin Sen was because some of Mage Merlin's views were also subtly changing some of her own ideas, such as that mages could cooperate with some people with special abilities on Earth to deal with some tricky things together.

Just like Master Merlin, as King Arthur's best friend and mentor, he taught Arthur and helped him become the greatest monarch of Great Britain in history.

Not only did Merlin help Arthur draw the sword in stone, but Arthur, at Merlin's suggestion, formed the Knights Templar, led by twelve Knights of the Round Table, who fought alongside the mages against the vampires who were ravaging the continent at the time.

The establishment of the Knights Templar gave Gu Yi a great inspiration, no matter how strong she is, she is also a person, there are many things, she can't deal with it, you know, after being a Supreme Mage for five hundred years, she is so busy that she even loses her hair!

What's more, this visit is also related to the legend of King Arthur, because she felt the fluctuation of an item, and this item is the scabbard that King Arthur lost in folklore.

After becoming king, Arthur's sword in stone broke during a duel due to a violation of chivalry, so Master Merlin led him to the sacred lake, where the fairy of the lake held a sword in her hand, lifted it out of the water, and handed it to Arthur who rowed over, which was later known as the "sword of kings".

In folklore, Arthur, who received the sword in the lake, had this conversation with Master Merlin:

Master Merlin once asked King Arthur, "Which one do you prefer?" ”

King Arthur replied, "The body of the sword, because it is so sharp that it sharpens iron like clay." ”

Merlin said, "You must know that the scabbard is worth ten times as much as the sword, because whoever wears the sword of the king will never bleed, so to protect the scabbard, you must remember to carry it with you." ”

Unfortunately, Arthur lost the scabbard, and he eventually fell in the Battle of Kamran.

The ancient one knew very well that the legendary sword scabbard was now on the fifth floor of this department store.
