Chapter Seventy-Three: The Temple of Knowledge, the Djinn of Wisdom
The list of the top 12 has been officially released, and basically all of them belong to young talents with great potential and strength.
Especially this year, there seem to be seven or eight players with the strength to win the tournament at the same time.
Like the light and dark twins of the Deep Blue Academy, there is no doubt that they are the leaders of the Deep Blue Academy.
Among the last twelve of the Elemental Academy, Storm Fury of the Elemental Academy, and Liszt, the Son of Calamity of the Fire Elemental Academy, are not inferior.
He also easily defeated Willier, the water dancer representing the Water Elemental Academy, among the four little kings of the Elemental Academy, in the challenge, and Ike from the most mysterious Time Academy also became the biggest dark horse in the competition.
Others like Victor from Johra, who claims to be a mechanical pioneer, Durang Siska, who is known as a carver from the Puppet Academy, or Aimee, the sword of the Wind and Snow from the Combat Academy, are all very hopeful of winning this year's championship.
"Damn, what about me?" Edward looked at the newly released College City newspaper in his hand and said speechlessly.
"You? Well, here's one. Ash grinned and handed Edward the gossip newspaper in his hand.
Then Edward saw an article the size of a tofu block, with the headline "A nobody unexpectedly won a place in the top 12", followed by a picture of a close-up of Liszt and a photo of Edward's back.
"Holy! It's obvious that Lao Tzu won, okay? If you give me another thirty seconds, I will definitely beat Xiao Lizi to cry! Edward immediately shouted unwillingly.
"What does it mean for someone to take advantage of Liszt's humility and plot to win? Liszt's kid is proud of the sky, okay? ”
"There's also this place where someone's good fortune is treated as a passerby, and no one chooses him as an opponent. It's all due to Liszt'. No way! The master wants him to save face? Obviously, those people know how powerful the master is, and they don't dare to fight with the master! Edward felt like he was going crazy.
"Huh. Edward, what are you anxious about? No one says you're not good, and this kind of weird tabloid just wants to attract people's attention. Don't worry too much. Riven ran over and comforted.
"That's right, when the time comes, I'll win a championship, and I won't 'snap' them in the face." Edward immediately shuddered again.
"You can win the championship too, I think the guy named Ezreal is very good-looking, and I saw him win both games easily, really handsome." Ash said nymphomaniac.
"Ash didn't expect you to be a member of the Appearance Association. Hmph, I'm definitely going to hit him all over the ground looking for teeth! Edward said unconvinced.
"What is the Appearance Society?" Ash asked again in confusion.
"I don't have time to explain to you, a mutineer, I'm going to the big library, and you can wander around the Deep Blue Academy by yourself." Edward huffed and left.
"Haha. Edward's expression just now was so funny, I didn't expect him to be so heavy-minded, and I thought he only cared about money. Ash stuck out his tongue and hugged Ibise and said, "Don't follow him, let him be alone, tomorrow's game is very important." ”
"Yes." As soon as Ibeth heard Ash's words, she sat down.
Edward, who went out, found that there was no one to accompany him, and he was a little frustrated.
Sample, brother will go to hang now, and when the time comes, brother will play ten. Let you all fall through the glasses.
The "Temple of Knowledge" is the name of the central library of the silver city-state.
The massive pillared architecture made the library as grand as a temple or palace.
The steps of the hall, which are more than a kilometer wide, are daunting, but mages can still be seen walking silently on them from time to time.
Even a high-level mage who can fly or a legendary mage who can open portals is no exception.
On both sides of the temple of knowledge are many stone statues, all of whom are great wise sages, and they are all great people who have made scholarly contributions to change the world.
The walls are carved with reliefs of the history of the city-state in silver. In the center, of course, is the "Cross of Wisdom", the symbol of the silver city-state.
The "Cross of Wisdom" is a symbol with an eye on the top of the cross, symbolizing the power of wisdom to see through the mysteries of the world.
When you enter this temple of knowledge, you will find that the space inside is a bit more than you can imagine.
The bookshelves made of glazed nanmu are all five meters high, and the rows of bookshelves are impossible to see at a glance.
"Edward White, a fifth-level battle mage and third-level arcanist from the Combat Academy. You will be granted access to the first and second floors of the Temple of Knowledge, and if you need help, please feel free to call the name of Lord Wellington, the Spirit of the Library. I will be there for you. A majestic voice came out of Edward's ear.
However, Edward was not surprised, and Edward had been advised before he came.
The Silver City-State attaches great importance to knowledge or books that are carriers of knowledge. That's why this temple of knowledge is extremely important.
The mages believe that there are no gods and no masters in this world, that the existence of all things is a regular existence, and that although the universe is not endless, as long as the mages make unremitting efforts, they can still grasp all the mysteries of this world.
It can be said that these mages are very arrogant, but they are undoubtedly very similar to those modern scientists in their thinking.
So the librarian of the Hall of Knowledge is a wisdom djinn, an arcane life comparable to that of an immortal.
Legend has it that he was an odd creature with 100 brains, 200 eyes, and 300 hands.
Thinking about the creature's appearance, Edward didn't want to run into him.
However, the existence of intelligent djinn can actually manage the entire library very well, if you need any books he can find for you, like a central processing unit, but Edward needs to do some ulterior secrets, so subconsciously do not want to contact this great and terrible existence.
"Master, don't be afraid of him, he is my little brother, he doesn't dare to do anything to you with me." The elf chicken wings ran out and said coaxingly.
"Cut, you brag about you." Edward knew that the wings were the seventh dragon god of Sa Ayron, and that the four earliest founders of the Seven Cities Alliance, the predecessor of the silver city-state, were his disciples. But the wisdom of other people's djinn is comparable to the existence of immortals, how can you compare with others in a book?
Unfortunately, soon a little elf appeared, hugged the chicken wings enthusiastically and shouted, "Brother Sior, why are you here?" We haven't seen each other in over 10,000 years, have we? ”
"Hmph, your kid is doing well now, and the eldest brother is still hungry. This is my new master, Edward, son of Asha and savior of the world. Chicken Wings noticed that Edward's face was ugly, and immediately introduced him to the younger brother flatteringly.
"He, a human kid who isn't even a legend?" This elf looks obviously thicker, and looks more like a martial artist, I really don't know where these guys got the shape, why do the dignified intelligent giants dress up as elves.
"Of course, the master has my assistance, don't you know my skills? Quick, big brother just came to you to eat something, you have gained a little weight recently, and big brother will give you weight loss. Chicken Wings noticed that Edward's face was getting more and more ugly, and hurriedly said.
"Well, big brother, you eat less." The elf that came immediately wilted.
"Hmph." Although he was ridiculed, the chicken wings were very powerful.
Since the librarian's wisdom djinn is the younger brother of the chicken wing, this time he can finally be satisfied.
The secret magic books were collected by the chicken wings one by one, and of course most of them were unique copies, so the chicken wings couldn't be swallowed all.
Otherwise, his younger brother would have to rebel immediately. (To be continued.) )
