Eighteen years ago, on the banks of the ancient capital?

Kaneshiro couldn't hold back his laughter, and the sand golem had already sent the news to the Tower of Quicksand.

After a moment, the sand golem suddenly paused, then reached out and picked up Fili, and the lower half of its body flowed quickly through the desert, moving towards the Tower of Quicksand.

Jincheng was left in place.

"Hey, and me!" Jin Cheng hurriedly shouted, but the sand puppet still ignored him.

Jin Cheng didn't dare to act rashly, he had not come into contact with Joshuel in his previous life, and this legendary mage had lived in seclusion after the production of the lava tome and had never been seen.

I heard that he has a good temper, but the secret mages always have strange personalities, and Kaneshiro does not dare to take offense easily.

"Kim, I'll be right back!"

Fili shook his hand from afar, already considering the "Highlander" who had given him many surprises along the way as his friend.

Kaneshiro had already told Fili his name, but by the name of his mage character.

Half an hour passed, and just when Jin Cheng was about to get impatient, a door suddenly appeared in front of Jin Cheng.

"Come in...... Fili's friend. ”

The old voice rang out.

Space Door!

This is a basic, simple space-based spell that can be comprehended even if you are not a space-based arcane mage, and you can comprehend it by touching the class after advancing to the Legend.

Jin Cheng threw away the white veil that covered the sun, tidied up his clothes a little, and stepped into the space door.

Time and space turned, the cool breath greeted me, and the environment in front of me had become a slightly dimly lit study.

Dense books were piled up on three walls of bookcases, the room was not redundantly decorated, and a square table full of books was placed in the center, and the three people at the table were looking at Jincheng who pushed the door in.

The first thing Kaneshiro saw was Fili, and he kept glancing at Kaneshiro, as if to hint at something.

Next to Fili is a calm middle-aged man, whose face is three or four points similar to Fili, and he should be the well-known secret skinner Dernan.

The last old man with white hair, with a kind face and an old and mischievous smile, was Qiao Huel, the owner of the Tower of Quicksand.

"Sorry, friend from the Highlands." Joshuel said with a smile, squeezing his eyes at Dernan, "Please forgive an old man who cares too much about his friend's family affairs for keeping you waiting so long in the hot desert outside. ”

"Joshuel, your look keeps reminding me that you're not caring, you're making fun of it." Dernan gritted his teeth.

"Don't forget, it's because of you that I've been in the Tower of Quicksand for a full eighteen years!"

"But if it weren't for me, how would you have a chance to rescue your wife, and how could you have a chance to have such a good son?"

Joshuel looked smug and teased Dernan, before continuing to say to Jin Cheng: "Hello, Highlander, I heard Fili say that you want to be a secret mage?" ”

"You know, not everyone can become an arcane mage."

"If you want to try it, I can recommend you to go to the Blue Tower, the group of people arguing around the long table, I like you most of all the children who yearn for the arcane mage."

Joshuel was very kind, looking like an ordinary old man, and he didn't have the majesty of a legendary powerhouse at all.

It's just that when mentioning the South Bank Mage Association, the faint mockery in his words makes people dare not forget his identity as a legendary secret mage.

Jin Cheng smiled confidently and said, "The Mystic Mage has been passed down in Igu for thousands of years, and the Blue Tower's practice goes against the tradition of the Mystic Mage. ”

"They've made the Arcane a class, a weapon that can be mass-crafted."

"But arcane mages have never been for power."

"The Mystic Master pursues faith!"

"Faith in yourself!"

"Anyone who renounces their belief in God and believes in themselves can become an arcane master."

"Dear Master Joshuel, I hope that you can perform a secret ritual on me to verify whether I have given up my divine faith!"

"Esoteric rituals?" Dernan's face was strange.

Qiao Xiuer looked surprised, walked in front of Jin Cheng in a few steps, and looked Jin Cheng up and down curiously.

The South Bank Mage Association has always been committed to maintaining the positive image of the Mystic, actively building a good relationship with the Holy See and the Templars, and working hard to communicate with the Mystics to obtain a noble status in the Igu Continent.

In fact, the ancient mystical mages have always been spurned by the people, because the arcane mages are abandoners of the gods, and they have renounced their faith.

The Southbank Mage Guild has greatly downplayed this image of the Mystic, and even completely interrupted the holding of the Arcane Ritual.

The so-called secret ritual is a procedure inherited by ancient secret mages, and it was first called the ritual of abandoning the gods. Through this ritual, the mages proved that they had renounced their belief and volunteered to become an abandonment of God.

I have to say that the South Shore Mage Association has done a very successful job, and with their efforts, the mystical mage has been able to integrate into the normal society of the Igu Continent, and is no longer the god abandoner that everyone hates, but on the contrary, he has an extremely noble status.

At the same time, the number of Arcane Mages has increased rapidly.

But for some old-fashioned and traditional arcane mages, the South Shore Mage Association's actions are undoubtedly a violation and trampling on the mystic mage's heritage.

Clearly, Joshuel is one of the traditional mystical masters.

"Do you really want to accept the Esoteric Ritual?" Joshuel asked suspiciously.

"Young man, don't blame me for not reminding you, as long as you still have even a little faith in the gods, your soul will be punished by the secret ritual, which is comparable to the torment of hell!"

Jin Cheng only smiled slightly, but did not speak.

He was born in modern society, and he was already estranged from beliefs, religion and other contents, not to mention that no gods in this world could fight him, so he couldn't talk about faith.

He believed that Joshuel would perform an arcane ritual for him, because in the traditional arcane mage lineage, it was the responsibility of every arcane mage to bring those who had renounced their belief to join the ranks of arcane mages.

Really.

Joshuel raised his hand, and an old yellow book suddenly appeared in his hand.

This is the Grimoire!

The pages of the book were windless and automatic, and Joshuel's magic book flipped rapidly, and bursts of arcane fluctuations came from the pages.

Soon the tome stopped flipping, revealing a page with the World Tree on it, a spell page representing the Esoteric Ritual.

"Worthy of being a native and authentic legendary-level arcane mage, this magic book has more than thirty spell pages!" Jin Cheng exclaimed in his heart.

The Mystic Mage's Tome initially had a minimum number of spell pages, and the Mystic Mage character in Miracles had only three spell pages at the beginning of its creation, and could only record three first-level spells.

What limits the maximum number of spell pages in the Tome is not the thickness of the Tome and the pages, but the Mystic Mage's understanding of the Tome and the Mystic Magical Powers.

The more the arcane mage knows about both, the higher the carrying capacity of the tome and the more pages of spells a tome can hold.

After Jincheng's mage character Jin was promoted to a legendary-level arcane lord, the magic book in his hand was only more than ten pages, and after removing daily skills such as flying and identification, there were only ten spell pages left, which meant that he could only use ten spells in battle.

Of course, the more advanced the spells, the higher the carrying capacity, Jincheng recorded an average of seven levels of spells, if all of them were replaced with first-level spells, Jincheng was confident that he could also store more than two hundred spell pages in the magic book.

But a legendary mage like Joshuel obviously wouldn't have kept a low-level spell page in the Grimoire either.

It is said that Ella's legendary lava tome has only five spell pages, and the power of these five spells can also be seen from the side.

Boom!

The sound of a drop of water falling into the water suddenly sounded.

Jin Cheng became unconscious for a moment, and ripples were pouring out of Qiao Huel's magic book, fluctuating towards Jin Cheng.
