Chapter 127: The Ring
The symbol of the Mage's Guild is a staff entwined in knotted branches, and there are so many people coming and going in it that it is still eye-catching for an archer to enter. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
There were more mages inside than expected, and when Night Silence thought that he would have to wait a long time to receive him, an NPC mage suddenly bypassed the Heavenly Favor who originally wanted to ask about things, and came directly to Night Silence: "This scholar, is there anything wrong with coming to the Mage Guild?" ”
Night Silence handed the mission item letterhead in his backpack to the mage, and the mage took it, glanced at the name, and took him directly, ignoring the attentive gaze of the other celestials.
"Who is this archer, it's finally my turn, how can this person be unruly."
"The NPC was so respectful to him, and when he saw him, he ran straight to him, completely leaving us behind."
"Well, everyone is gone, let's line up again."
There are three floors of the Mage Guild, the hall on the first floor is a platform for mages to choose tasks and communicate, and some chores are also done in it, starting from the second floor is the mage's private room, and the third floor is the mage guild leader's room.
The second layer was not accessible to ordinary celestials and other NPCs who had not reached the third order, but this NPC did not ask about the silence of the night, and directly took him to the second layer of the Mage Guild.
Compared to the bustling first floor, the second floor is almost full of people, which is also due to the fact that mages usually spend their time studying spells and exploring knowledge.
After going up the stairs, I walked all the way to the right for a short time, and I was surprised to meet a person.
Flame-like fiery red eyes and the scorching breath on his body, this time he didn't hold the staff, but the feeling brought to the silence of the night was more depressing than before, and it seemed that Xingyan had become a lot stronger.
Just one aisle, he went in the same direction the two of them came, glanced at the silence of the night as he passed, and nodded at him unexpectedly.
The silence of the night also signaled him to go first, and the two staggered, but the mage NPC looked at the two people but didn't say anything.
System prompt: Xingyan adds you as a friend, yes/no agree.
The mage NPC continued to lead the way, and the silence of the night showed a trace of spirit and looked at the system prompt, and couldn't help but smile.
After agreeing, Xingyan didn't make any other moves, did this mean putting him in his eyes?
Night Silence thought silently, only to find that the mage had pushed open a door on the left, and the hallway was nearing the end.
Through the crack in the door, you can see an old man wearing a mage robe standing with his hands on his back, and the mage NPC brought him in, handed the envelope to the old man, closed the door and went out.
The only people left in the room were the silence and the old man.
It was very different from the other mage's rooms, there were no books and parchment rolls cluttered on the table, the feather ink bottles were neatly arranged, and the books were placed in the shelves, giving people a neat and crisp feeling, and the old man who had been standing in front of the window before finally turned his head.
The envelope in the old man's hand was no longer known when it was opened, and the letter was still inside, but he knew that the old man must have read the contents of it, and the mage often needed to read a lot of books because of the knowledge he needed, so that many mages had invented unique speed reading skills, and the old mage in front of him was obviously one of them.
Night Silence had no idea what the contents of the letter were, and it was inexplicable when he got it.
"Dear Master Vecchi, may I ask ......"
Before the night could silently ask about the legendary hunter Guchios, Vicky slowly spoke: "Since you have obtained this letter, you should know about my research on Guchios, and as a scholar, you can talk about your knowledge of Guchios. ”
Scholars are obviously more prominent than the fame among players, and even the mage in front of him has been affected.
Recalling the records of Guchios that he had seen in the scholar's house before, and knowing that it was very likely to be related to the transfer of the legendary hunter Guchios, he muttered a lot of words before he spoke: "No one knows the origin of Guchios, but they all confirm that he has the strength of a fifth-order legend, and some people record that they met him in Silver Leaf City, but there is no definite evidence. He disappeared for a long time, but his last appearance wreaked havoc on the demons and saved humanity. ”
Master Vecchio nodded appreciatively: "It seems that you have learned about Guchios in the scholar's house, and you have basically summarized it, but after all, so many years have passed, and many records and evaluations are one-sided. ”
The silence of the night probably guessed that this mage Vicky was probably also in the scholar's house, so I don't know if it was a scholar or a prophet.
"Tell me about my research over the years." After a pause, Mage Vicky said, "I'm so interested in the mysterious legendary hunter of the Golden Dragon's last years that I've given up a lot of my sorcery research in favor of finding his trail. ”
After saying this, a trace of tiredness flashed in the eyes of the mage Vicky, maybe he was the only one who had been obsessed with this for all these years, but it was almost time to give up.
Night Silence knows that the mission has begun in one aspect, and maybe the next sentence will be the key to unlocking the whole mission.
"When I resolutely gave up the subject given to me by my teacher when I was in the third order, I am still in the third order." He took a deep breath and calmed the waves in his heart, "Regarding the study of distant times, scholars always have a headache, because the age span is too large, and the years have erased many traces of the past, even if you get a certain information, it does not mean that you can find something." ”
In this regard, Ye Silent nodded silently, in fact, according to the chronology, because the Golden Dragon Year is the previous era of the New Enlightenment Year, so according to reason, there should be some traces Maybe there is still a possibility of existence.
"But just like you said about Silverleaf City, because history is not long, when Eugilis seized the rule of this empire, it is very fortunate that they did not destroy Silverleaf City."
The news is still very surprising, Silver Leaf City still exists, that is, it has a history of at least a thousand years.
"Silver Leaf City is still standing, but compared to the Golden Year of the Dragon, its pre-eminence has changed, and it is surrounded by countless grander and more striking cities, perhaps it can only represent the history of the past."
"Master Vicky, have you been there?" Night Silence couldn't help but ask.
"Of course, as soon as I learned the news, I arrived at Silver Leaf City, but unfortunately, the lifespan of human beings is too short compared to that of elves and dragons, even if anyone met Guchios at that time, it is estimated that they have already turned into a handful of loess." Speaking of this, Mage Vicky only sighed, "Even if you are a legend, you won't live a few hundred years longer." ”
"That said, I was young and stubborn at that time, and I stayed in Silverleaf City for a long time, hoping to get a little new clue about Guchios."
The silence of the night knew that the next step might be a turning point.
"In Silverleaf City, I explored and studied magic while secretly investigating possible traces of Guchios, and at the age of ten I wrote a letter to my teacher telling him that I was ready to give up." "But just then, I passed by a nondescript bungalow in Silverleaf City, and a little girl told me that her ancestors had left a few words about Guchios. ”
The turn of events was quite dramatic, but the silence of the night continued to listen intently.
At that time, I didn't believe her words, but I just laughed it off. But then she told me that Guchios had left her something. ”
"Something."
Looking at the silent and nervous appearance of the night, he smiled, and a small transparent ring appeared in his hand out of thin air.
Mage Vicky handed it to Nightfall.
The ring is light blue throughout, with a very delicate bouquet of roses at the front of the ring.
"Could it be that this is what Guchios left to the little girl's ancestors?"
There was obvious hesitation in the silence of the night, and in fact the ring didn't seem to be something to be given away, whether it was a ring or a light blue rose adorning it, it looked like a work of art.
"I was amazed at the time, and she said, 'That's the case, Guchios told me that my ancestor had given it to her, but I wanted him to give him this ring when he met a young mage who had been on the verge of leaving for ten years,' and I was stunned."
"And when I thought it was fate, I was guided by the ring to a different place, but the gatekeeper told me that I was not the one he was looking for. The man he was looking for was a hunter. ”
Mage Vicky sighed deeply.
"This is fate, I'm already a third-order mage, and it's impossible to become a hunter anymore, so I'm finally unwilling, but I'm still leaving."
The silence of the night silently heard the depression in his tone, anyone who has worked hard for so long and got such a result will be like this.
"I haven't been able to break through the bottleneck all these years, the fourth order...... The word legend is not easy to say, the teacher has returned to his hometown, I don't want to live up to his expectations, but ...... If you don't solve this matter, there will always be something in your heart. ”
Mage Vecchio looked lonely, but when he saw him, he was lifted again.
"Actually, I also took the ring to find some hunters, but the ring never lies, they are not that person."
"Am I who you said I am?" The silence of the night was a little confused by the words of the mage Vecchi.
"When I saw you, the ring lit up once."
Mage Vicky's tone was steadfast, his eyes full of anticipation.
