How to become a powerful wizard?

First of all, you have to have a laboratory, the bigger the better, and secondly, you have to have enough books, preferably one that covers all the knowledge on Valan.

But Mauss thought those words were as bad as a sailor's boots, and he always believed that if you were vile enough to fool Lady Luck into it, you could become a great wizard.

Life is a teacher, but sadly, Maus's teacher is not friendly, he has lived like a beggar all these years, and if all his experiences were brought together, he could have written a book of Les Miserables.

In the southwest of the Valan continent, the dragon empire is shrouded in the shadow of war, three years ago, the magical elements of nature have changed, extreme rage, and the concept of wizards is facing unprecedented challenges, because the theories and truths they construct are like sloping tall buildings, which may collapse at any time.

The change in magic has created many monsters, and humans have become food in their eyes, and the situation continues to deteriorate, because monsters can appear around you at any time.

The city of Lenca, the great trading city on which the empire depended, was now a war of all the people, and the walls were rebuilt, and the materials were made of boulders as hard as steel, reaching a height of more than 30 meters.

Whether it is the main street or the alleys, you can always see the patrolling city guards, they are well-dressed, their faces are solemn, and they are in a state of readiness.

The gray rain from the sky made many streets unusually muddy, and passers-by walked on them, often sinking their shoes into the sunken.

"Damn the weather, this is the last clean dress I have. ”

Well, complaining is everyone's right, whining can effectively relieve inner depression, and generally in such weather, most people will stay at home sensibly.

Of course, those who are struggling at the bottom of life are not among them, and on the corner of a street, a yellow-faced and skinny teenager is cowering under a street lamp.

Fifteen-year-old Maus, dressed in a shabby gray robe, with curly black hair wet from the rain and a filthy face, had not eaten for two days.

Coo-coo.

When people are extremely hungry, they always make unexpected moves, which is a danger signal, and Maus's eyes are always fixed on a bakery across the street, and his eyes are about to move.

The temptation was too strong to resist, the reason in his mind was crumbling, and gradually, he seemed to be unable to hear the outside world, and the picture in front of him was like a silent movie being shown.

At this moment, the baker in the store suddenly walked out, and I don't know if it was a coincidence, his eyes turned to Mus.

"For Myojin's sake, get out of there for me, if you reptile dare to come to my store, I'll stuff you in the oven!"

Mauss was instantly pulled back to reality by the baker's angry expression and threatening words, and he hurriedly turned his back, still haunted by the last experience.

A few days ago, in order to steal a piece of bread, Mus was caught on the spot by the other party and directly beaten up, that time he returned to his residence on his stomach, thinking that he would die, but he did not expect to miraculously survive in the end.

"Sir, miss, can you give me something to eat?"

In the street, an extremely weak voice was heard, and a thin figure was seen staggering, and she kept reaching out and begging passers-by.

"Get out of here!"

"Don't stain my clothes. ”

It was a little girl of about ten years old, with blonde hair, and after being ruthlessly pushed down by passers-by again and again, she struggled to get up again, covered in dirt and unable to see clearly, wearing only an adult's linen blouse, and her body was covered with bruises of different shades.

The little girl shivered in the rain, lonely and helpless, and in the face of the indifference of passers-by, she never gave up and continued to beg for food.

"Poor boy, go home quickly, you will die in the rain. ”

An old lady could not bear it, she took a piece of bread from the basket in her hand and stuffed it into the little girl's hand.

"Thank you, thank you. ”

The little girl looked at the distant lady and thanked her again and again, clutching the bread tightly in her hand, her eyes filled with moisture, and the rain kept dripping down her blonde hair.

Maus, who was not far away, clearly captured this scene, and he hurriedly stood up and chased directly after the little girl.

"Bring it!"

Mauss stopped the girl's path and shouted coldly, he was so hungry.

"No, it's mine. ”

The girl's eyes were full of fear, as if she were facing a great enemy, but she knew that she had to protect the bread.

"Give it to me!"

Mus only had bread in his eyes, and he couldn't stand such hunger anymore, so he pushed the little girl to the ground and started snatching it directly.

"Don't give it, it's mine, don't give it!" The little girl stubbornly guarded the bread, but she refused to compromise.

"Damn it. Maus scolded angrily and punched and kicked her.

The passers-by around him had to retreat a little farther away, for fear that the dirty water would splash on their bodies, and their faces almost showed disgust, without the slightest hint of sympathy.

"Give it to me, the bread is mine. ”

The little girl was so desperate that she almost lost her strength, tears mixed with raindrops slid down her cheeks, and she reached out to grab Mus, but was kicked away by the other party.

Soon, Maus disappeared from the little girl's sight.

"Woo, woo, whoa!"

In the western part of the city of Lenka, where the houses collapsed in patches, it was once a place for civilians to live, but now it is no different from the ruins.

If you want to restore it to its original state, there is nothing the city lord can do, the cost is too great, and despite this, there are still many people living in the ruins.

Mauss soon found his home in the ruins, a small collapsed building, and he had put together a place to keep out the rain.

As soon as he returned to his lodgings, he ate the bread by two, where no food could be saved, and he did not feel the slightest guilt for snatching the little girl's bread.

Temporarily resisting hunger, Maus fell asleep, and plenty of rest allowed him to conserve his strength, and the advantage was that all his good wishes in his dreams could come true.

When night falls, there is no peace around, crying and screaming abound, and many people die in such difficult nights.

Click.

The rain slapped against a pot of flowers and plants not far from Mus, but it was not at all related to flowers, and it looked very similar to pitcher plants.

It was found by Mauss at the Viscount's house in the city, and it was a tragic day, a few months ago, a terrible monster attacked the estate of the Viscount of Yori.

Its devastating power was devastating, and within minutes, Yori Manor was in ruins, with hundreds of lives spared.

The scene of the tragedy has become a paradise for scavengers, although the valuable things have long been taken away by the city lord, but as long as you look carefully, if you are lucky, you will still have a good harvest.
