Lina sorted out the problem and was about to speak, but found that the other person's eyes seemed to lose focus. vertex

"Hello?"

She held out her hand and shook it in front of his eyes, who seemed to come back to his senses.

In a trance, Lina felt that the person in front of her was unable to look directly for a moment, and she was like two people who were hanging before, and the terrifying momentum made her can't help but take half a step back.

This is...... What's the situation?

In her hesitation, Mu Yan stood up. The scholar's expression was as calm as water, but in Lina's eyes, there seemed to be a kind of sadness that could not be hidden.

"If there's any problem, please tell me, Miss Lina." Mu Yan unlocked the confinement of the elements, which seemed meaningless to him. After digesting the information he had obtained, he had no doubts about the safety of the place.

Lina didn't hesitate, and asked directly, "Where the hell is this place, and who are you?" Where did the Arsis Hall go? ”

"Relax, I'll answer your questions one by one." Mu Yan smiled, he shouted "bo" to the air in front of him, and the transparent air wall around him began to squirm, and then a road was opened for the two of them to walk.

It's like walking 10,000 meters above the city, with a panoramic view of everything under your feet.

"The barrier we are stepping on under our feet is called the Silent Barrier of the Whole Domain, and it is actually an eggshell, and the reason why we feel that there is a plane under our feet is only because it is too large. If you continue to move forward for some distance, you will feel a noticeable angle of inclination.

"As for the Arcane Hall you are talking about, it is its control center. Of course, this term may be difficult for you to understand, but you can think of it as an outward-type enchantment crystal with a magic pattern engraved on it, centered on the crystal, and the enchantment spreads in all directions.

"Magic Pattern? Why didn't I feel any traces of the flow of magic? Lina wondered.

"Great question, I don't actually feel it." Mu Yan sighed and said, "This is the outstanding feature of those great ** masters, they used their outstanding wisdom to shape this enchantment to protect Fa Lan City and protect the last purity of Jialan. It's no wonder that corruption appears inside Jialan, after all, infiltration from the inside out is the most unguardable......

"I don't understand what you're saying, Mr. Mu Yan."

"Sorry, but I'm a little more touching, and my speech is a little incoherent, let's go back to the barrier itself." Mu Yan smiled apologetically, and continued, "I have a question here, do you understand why Jialan is a holy place for mages?" ”

Lina thought for a moment and said, "I think it should be the atmosphere and the number of mages, you can't see so many mages in other places." ”

"Then why is there a 'Domain-Wide Silent Enchantment'?" Mu Yan asked.

"Probably...... It's to restrain low-level mages. Lina said, "They are not mature in their minds, and they are not deep enough in the study of magic, but they have the power to easily kill ordinary people...... This power needs to be suppressed until they can fully harness it. ”

Mu Yan snapped his fingers in approval, and then asked, "Then here comes the problem...... How much does Miss Lina know about the principle of this 'suppression'? For example, why are spells below the four rings greatly suppressed, even if they are higher than the four rings, their power will plummet by half, and even the activation is unusually slow......"

Lina couldn't help but be confused, she had never thought about it.

Mu Yan said again: "We have the same magic net above our heads, whether it is in Falan or Morning Star. The requests we send to the Magic Web are similar, no matter where we are...... It's not something we can control, but why is the same prayer sent to the same magic net, but the weakened spell is obtained, and where does the missing energy go? ”

Lina is worthy of her name as the Rainbow Witch, she looked down at the transparent eggshell under her feet, and said thoughtfully, "What do you mean...... This part of the energy is absorbed by the enchantment? ”

"That's right, that's exactly what it is, it's not so much about absorption as it is about filtering." Mu Yan said with relief on his face: "Not only that, the enchantment will not only absorb this part of the energy, but it will also extract the magic power in the mage's body all the time. Of course, this is very light, and does not cause the individual's mana to decay, but only slightly slows down their mana recovery.

"When a mage is dissatisfied with the magic power in his body, he will subconsciously choose to meditate, so under this subtle influence, the casters of Fa Blue City will become more diligent unconsciously, of course, this diligence is their own progress when they are in the outside world.

"In other words, the so-called 'mage's holy land' is actually just an enchantment that helps them mobilize the part of their enthusiasm that they don't want to cheer up."

After hearing these expressions, Lina felt incredible, she was outside the barrier at this time, and she couldn't feel the "suction" that the other party said, and it seemed that she didn't usually notice its existence.

"But why do you want to?"

"Why? It's not hard to answer...... If the donkey doesn't move, it has to be whipped, right? Mu's tone changed, and he said with a slight mockery: "When the barrier was first built more than seven hundred years ago, there was no such 'negative growth' effect. Enchantments need to absorb a certain amount of energy each day to sustain themselves, and this number has never changed. In other words, at that time, how many spellcasters there were in Jialan, how many people were practicing spells every day, and how much escaped magic power was filtered and absorbed, this value never changed......

"As time goes by, there are more and more mages in Jialan, but the casters practice less and less every day, and the energy absorbed by the enchantment is not enough to sustain itself, so this suction force gradually spreads to all the mages......" Mu Yan smiled: "There are more people, but there are fewer people practicing spellcasting, there are more and more magnificent manors of the nobles, but there are fewer and fewer mage towers, Miss Lina, what do you think is the problem?" ”

Faced with Mu Yan's questioning, Lina chose to remain silent.

Of course, she could understand the roundabout taunt in the other party's words, but she couldn't refute or answer.

How can you refute it? In fact, as he said, the mages of Jialan are heading for depravity.

Perhaps it should not be said to be depraved, it is a quagmire of laziness, laziness, vulgarity and impetuousness, which stenges and makes people despair.

Counting the time when she was incognito before, she has been in Jialan for almost a hundred years. A hundred years ago, at least seventy percent of the descendants of nobles were high-ranking mages, and the families who had the opportunity to be invited to the annual royal dinner were all the owners of the mage tower.

But only a hundred years have passed, and four-ring mages like Barry and Samuel, who are all devoted to women, can also be called all kinds of leaders......

In the eyes of more and more nobles, mages have become an identity rather than a profession, it is linked to nobility, symbolizing glory and nobility, and then evolving into discrimination against other professions and despising them.

These people despise those who have gained recognition and wealth through their own efforts, and feel that it is the useless struggle of the lowly, that they are trying to challenge their noble status.

It's no wonder that the Elemental Towers are gaining popularity in Jialan, and they preach that "the ability to cast spells is the power bestowed on humans by the Lord of the Elements", which is in keeping with the greedy and vain nature of the nobles. If the soul could become currency, I am afraid that those nobles would not hesitate to wave it to buy what they wanted.

They are so keen to enjoy themselves that they have forgotten how it all came about.
