Chapter 680: Mystery
"All-Knowing" Heloise, in the mage world where knowledge is power, this title is not only very stylish, but also very hateful.
Doesn't the omniscient mean that he knows more than any mage, and in the world of mages who are also scholars, what a mockery, but Heloise has not only carried this crown steadily for thousands of years, but also the great mage's piles of clouds in the clouds, and taught many proud disciples.
And if she deliberately teaches something wrong in imparting knowledge, leading people astray, I am afraid that she will soon be discredited, and even expelled from the country of mages.
Therefore, what she said about misleading apprentices is to be viewed dialectically, referring to the fact that she did not give her true biography, but only taught the textbook according to the textbook.
The basic teaching of the country of mages is assisted by various academies, and there are naturally teaching materials and course selections in the academies, and the content taught in them is thousands of years of classics, which is very suitable for laying a theoretical foundation, but if you want to go further, you must experience another truth in the world of mages - knowledge is valuable.
The basics are not difficult, but the pursuit of magic knowledge is endless, and after graduation, if you are not satisfied with being just an apprentice for life, you must either consider joining the caster organization, consider apprenticeship, or both...... And that, it also means giving, the master-apprentice relationship between the mage is stronger than that of father and son, and it is a unilateral dominant position of the elders, and many apprentices follow up on this logically, inheriting the master's worldview, good and evil, research field, social relations, and even become the property of the master.
As a result, many apprentices and mentors sign contracts or pay for many years of service before apprenticeship. Or how many gold coins and magic materials are used to redeem oneself in a number of years. In the legendary tale, a free old grandfather's is not nothing. But that chance is about the same as the reality of the legendary novel.
For these old pedants, talking about the old classics that should have been swept into the garbage heap of history a long time ago is naturally taking the students on a long detour.
In the world of mages, knowledge is power, knowledge is valuable, free and low-cost acquisition can only be a bad street goods, if you want to get more, you must pay.
In a sense. Heloise was a generous and brilliant mentor, and over the years, she had taught countless powerful spellcasters, not only did she not skimp on her magical knowledge, but she was also able to teach her according to her aptitude, choosing the most suitable type of spell and type of magic according to the talents of her apprentices, and that endless magical knowledge was also the source of her title of "Omniscient".
Unlike other "misers", her requirements for accepting apprentices are not high, and she can also use her future promise to consume first and pay later. Anyway, there is an agreement in the magic contract, and I don't worry about the other party breaking the contract. And the reward she asked for was much less than that of the other archmages.
In a sense, Heloise is also one of the most irresponsible mentors, unlike the mainstream of repeated tests of apprentices by other spell casters, and taking one or two apprentices as sons for a lifetime, and unlike those evil mages who let their disciples fight each other to determine the best candidates, Heloise does not care about the growth of her apprentices, and it doesn't matter much to her whether she succeeds or not, although she gives thousands of valuable magical knowledge, she has no expectation of return from the beginning.
“…… My disciple, whenever you have the chance, you will take revenge on the elves and the elven gods. ”
In a sense, the hostility of human mages towards elves really has something to do with Heloise, after all, those mage apprentices who have received her favor have grown up to be archmages, and it is easy and pleasant to use the strength and authority in their hands to add obstacles to the elves, and no matter how easy the terms of the contract are, they must be fulfilled.
The golden princess of 10,000 years, in her own way, has taken revenge on the elves for many years, and now she has become the queen of the elves, which really makes people sigh at the grasp of fate.
And the obvious exchange of interests between master and apprentice, and the way of getting along with each other, also made the disciples not have much closeness and love for Heloise, even though the disciples she taught were probably the largest number, and for revenge, they actively chose those evil and dark seeds......
In fact, sometimes when I think of this, I feel that Heloise is still too small-minded, if she really spends such a long time carefully teaching her disciples, instead of simply using the contract to stipulate the obligations and interests of both parties, with her educational ability and lifespan, knowledge accumulation, according to the normal master-apprentice relationship in the mage world, passed down from generation to generation, the accumulation of one faction after another, her prestige is already the first person in the mage world.
Now most of the actual power of the Truth Archmages in the Mage Country comes from the Mage Organization, and the most stable relationship within the Mage Organization is the master-apprentice relationship and inheritance, in a sense, the entire Mage Country is an academic organization (academy), and the head is naturally the principal and professor.
The peach and plum sky of Helois is terrifying just to think about, and at that time, it is not a matter of words to take revenge on the elves and the elven gods, and the mages have never been afraid of the elven gods.
“…… Tsk, thanks to the long hair and short knowledge of the dead cat, Heloise, who rules the country of mages, is terrible just thinking about the style of painting. ”
The all-knowing, what a dazzling honorary title for a mage, others probably thought that Heloise was teaching her disciples with the knowledge accumulated over the years, while those who were really familiar knew that she was involved in too many and too many fields beyond the comprehension of a normal mage.
Undead, flames, ice, thunder and lightning, illusions, alchemy, energy, etc., I have never seen her not good at it, this kind of accumulation is incomprehensible, because any kind of magic requires a lifetime of study and accumulation, rather than being broad and broad, it is better to specialize in a certain item to reach the peak.
In the world of spellcasters, all mages are just a joke, after all, people's time and energy are limited, and when a certain magic or degree is studied in depth, it will naturally occupy all your thinking and time, your knowledge system will be reshaped with it, your thinking pattern will begin to be stereotyped, research is your life, you just have extra energy, and it is difficult to be distracted by others.
More than seventy percent of the mages are single-lineage, one major and one minor is already the limit, and the wonders of the three-line archmages can't find a hundred in the entire mage country, and I only know one of the four-lineage, cough, my situation is also very special, okay...... It is even more incomprehensible that Heloise has reached the peak of everything.
“…… She just has the time and energy to go there to collect magical knowledge and historical heritage? And magic is not something that can be understood just by reading a book, but also practice, drills, magic experiments, and battles, and theoretical mages who have no actual combat accumulation are just scum, how do these real practical combat experiences accumulate?"
And today, Heloise showed me her greatest secret, the source of her strength.
"This is the world of my heart, the temple of the Knowing......" (To be continued.) )
