……

If the world of Telos is also seen as a game, then the communication platform for the arcanists that Gordon discovered in the crystal ball is equivalent to a professional strategy forum.

The exchange of knowledge and the transfer of information are a great help to promote the progress of civilization. The Elemental Emperor clearly understood this. He used the network of crystal balls in the floating city to provide a virtual space for the arcanists who came to the library to borrow books.

Any arcanist can "post" here and share his experience and various techniques about the arcane. Other viewers will comment on these articles, and if they think they are wonderful, they will "like" and support them. If you feel that you can't agree, you can also leave a message to refute and have a fight.

With a sufficient number of likes, the publisher of the article will have more privileges in the library and more opportunities to browse valuable books that are restricted from reading.

Because of the generous rewards, this exchange platform is very active, and the participants are unknown.

Today, the eloquence, verbal warfare, and sparks of thought of the past have all disappeared, leaving only rows and rows of cold Nether characters condensed from arcane particles, which remain in the crystal ball.

For Gordon, though, he misses that arcane boom. The golden age of the explosive development of wisdom and civilization, but the glorious picture of history is not as attractive as the tangible benefits. He was already a little dazed by the rows of cues sent by the system in his brain.

He clicked on one of the most popular articles.

"A Bite of Nether: On How to Cook a Dragon to Completely Preserve the Life Source in the Meat".

Books Intellectual Needs: 13. Intelligence test pass guò. can be read. The current reading progress is 0%. Final Reading Gains: Arcane Knowledge +2, Cooking +5, Biometrics +5, XP +300.

System prompts like this appear in the system interface like brushing frequency, so that Gordon has to block them one by one.

Only then did he start reading. When Gordon's eyes swept to the first line of the article. The crystal ball seemed to have detected his desire to read, and the light suddenly increased, and a trace of magical aura converged into a shining ribbon. Pointing directly at Gordon's forehead.

The mage only felt that the light flashed in front of him, and hundreds of arcane words were already deeply engraved in his brain.

"When you're done reading, check the rewards."

Hearing the system prompt, Gordon checked the character attributes. I found out that I had gained some new skill points. And the number of jù in the experience pool has also increased from the original 7669 to 7969 points.

"Instant learning?"

Based on his knowledge of the magic technology of the Nether era, Gordon roughly guessed what had just happened. When the Elemental Emperor was making these crystal ball networks, he used the mind snatcher's psychic ability to develop a method that could instantly copy the information in the crystal ball into human consciousness.

In this way, it doesn't take a lot of time, it only takes a blink of an eye. The user of the crystal ball will be able to fully memorize and understand the information stored in the crystal ball.

This instantaneous learning feature. It's so important for mages who don't have enough time, and are willing to transform themselves into lichs in order to get more time. It's not flawless, though. Every moment of learning will cause a great burden on the mage's brain and spirit. The greater the amount of information and the more difficult the content, the greater the burden.

When the mental burden on the brain exceeds the limit, the consequences may be unimaginable.

A rookie who has just obtained the official mage qualification, if he wants to use this crystal ball to learn a legendary spell book in an instant, then most of the end will be directly brain-exploding.

After reading five articles in a row, Gordon felt like he had reached his limit, his brain groggy and accompanied by waves of convulsions. He put down the crystal ball and prepared to rest.

Although he was far from reading all the articles stored in the crystal ball, he had already gained enough. The knowledge left behind by those Nether Arcanists not only allowed him to improve a lot on the attribute panel, but also allowed Gordon to gain a lot of experience and skills that could not be measured by numbers alone. In addition, the most important thing is that the experience pool, which has been growing slowly for a long time, has gained 2,300 experience points at once.

Looking at the number "9969" on the attribute panel, Gordon took several deep breaths before suppressing his overly excited feelings. Since he was promoted to level nine, every time he fights and every time he kills an enemy, his experience points can only slowly increase at a rate of one or two points, or ten points, which is a torment for him who wants to quickly improve his strength.

"The system allocates 9,000 experience points in the experience pool to the character's experience."

"Understood." The system replied plainly.

Then, in Gordon's consciousness, the number in front of the character's experience value "36000/45000" began to jump rapidly, and finally became "45000/45000".

"Experience points meet the requirements, and the level increases."

Gordon immediately added a new character level to the Blood Mage class. The Blood Mage class can be upgraded to level 10 at most, and Gordon decided to raise his Blood Mage abilities to the peak and then consider developing in other fields.

When the mage class reaches level 10, it gains an additional pro point. Gordon carefully skimmed through the list of available specialties that the system had given him, and finally decided to use this specialization point to strengthen the existing arcane specialization.

Gordon upgraded "Beginner Spell Penetration" to "Intermediate Spell Penetration", so that the spells he casts can reduce the target's spell resistance by 20%.

As his own strength continues to grow, Gordon now faces an enemy. It's getting stronger and stronger. Creatures with spell resistance, warriors equipped with magic armor, and mages with increasingly advanced spellcasting skills...... Face these enemies. Simply increasing the power of one's spells is far less beneficial than improving one's spell counter ability.

Then, Gordon divided all the newly acquired skill points equally among the five skills of Circle Learning, Runeology, Use of Magic Items, Item Enchantment, and Alchemy.

As a mage, he felt that his combat power was more than enough to deal with current and potential enemies. But his "productivity" is not enough, from the player experience of Ancient Age, those magic items that are either practical or powerful. Due to the lack of level, it is impossible to make zuò out.

There are thousands of fantastic ideas in my head, but I can't make them happen. It's a painful thing.

Immediately after, Gordon summoned the character attribute bar and checked it again.

None of the specialties or skills were assigned incorrectly. Gordon said "sure." Then exit the system.

Although his mana has been automatically replenished after upgrading, the physical weakness caused by using the blood mage's ability, as well as the brain fatigue caused by reading the information in the crystal ball just now, still remain.

So he simply put himself in a comfortable position on the bed, then closed his eyes and fell asleep......

When he woke up, Gordon looked at his pocket watch. I found myself sleeping for six hours in one night. With a whopping 26 Constitution, he has a strong ability to recover. This awakening, in addition to feeling hungry in the belly, has recovered to its best state.

While Sigrid and Ainia slept in Gordon, they finally ended their argument and returned to the spell-made cabin. The two men also seemed to be exhausted, and the female knight hastily took off her armor and slept in another single bed. Ainia, on the other hand, was lying in the stack of books, sleeping soundly.

Gordon didn't want to disturb them, so he quietly found some dry food to satisfy his stomach.

After the meal, he decided to start the daily compulsory course of the mage: meditation, taking advantage of his good spirits.

It didn't take a few minutes, with the assistance of the system, Gordon calmed down, and his consciousness quickly crossed the constraints of matter and entered another dimension.

In the darkness, those figurative free points of light appeared in Gordon's field of vision. He let his spiritual power gradually diffuse, enveloping the constantly pulsing source energy like a thin curtain.

In this way, he had to use his spiritual power to sense and understand the essence of the source energy, and he had to do it every day. And his understanding of arcane, source energy, and the multiverse is also deepening day by day.

But today, Gordon has discovered something different. (To be continued......)
