Outside the border guard of the Holy Helmet Kingdom.

"Your Highness, just send it here, let's go." Sun Ran said to Princess Toria, who had already sent more than a mile away.

Tolia was stunned, turned her head to look, and said with a smile: "It turns out that we have been walking for so long." ”

She waved her hand to the sentry general who followed her, and ordered, "You go over there and wait first, I have something to say to Russell alone." ”

The generals nodded, and led the soldiers back a hundred meters, leaving only Toria, Sun Ran, and Zhao Shan in the clearing.

Toria bowed her head and remained silent, as if she was contemplating what to say.

Just when Zhao Shan and the others were impatient and began to look left and right, Toria opened her mouth and asked, "Russell, you are a promising magician, do you have any plans for the future?" ”

"The future?" Sun Ran remembered the purpose of this roundabout journey, he looked up at the sky, and thought of the eternal gods in the heavenly realm.

"Yes, do you want to stay in Sky City, or do you have other plans?" Toria asked.

Sun Ran shook his head: "I don't know the way of the road, life is wonderful and gratuitous." I don't know where I'm going to be in the future. The only thing that is certain is that I will follow the path of the magician, in pursuit of more powerful magic, more essential truth. ”

"That'...... Have you ever thought about starting a family? Toria asked, and hurriedly added, "I mean to meet a girl and spend a lifetime together?" ”

"Didn't think about it." Sun Ran shook his head.

Toria sighed that this Russell, who was psychologically precocious like an adult, but his body still faithfully reflected his age, and he was still an ignorant teenager.

Zhilu said that it was useless to say this now, and the other party couldn't listen to it at all, maybe it would be okay in a few years, but it was too early now.

Toria forced a smile: "Then so be it." Russell. Looking forward to your early return. The gates of the Kingdom of the Holy Helmet are always open for you. You will not be there at this state feast, but when you return, the kingdom will hold another feast for you. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness Princess, for your kindness." Sun Ran saluted and thanked him.

"Brother, let's go then, shall we?" Zhao Shan urged impatiently.

"Okay."

Sun Ran saluted again. Taking Zhao Shan's hand and taking a few steps back, a flying technique emerged, lifting the two of them into the sky, fluttering away quickly, and soon disappeared from the princess's field of vision.

Looking at Toria's distracted appearance from a distance, Zhao Shan said: "Sun Ran, look at you, you have a love debt again." ”

Sun Ran smiled: "Love debts can't be talked about." This princess is just thinking about her own country and wants to attract a strong reinforcement. Politically produced marriages do not require affection. In this regard, this princess is qualified. ”

Zhao Shan shook his head: "You have it." You think too highly of this princess, she is still a flower that has not experienced wind and rain, she doesn't have so much thought, she just likes you, and the magical talent you show is just one of the straws on the back of a camel. ”

"Don't dwell on it, it doesn't matter what it looks like, I will reject her like I used to reject Kelly." Sun Ran said with a smile.

"You're cruel." Zhao Shan sighed. Changed the subject, and did not use the sound transmission technique: "Brother." Did you gain anything from fighting that black mage? ”

Sun Ran turned his head to look at Zhao Shan, and saw that her eyes were shining, and he immediately understood what she meant: they had now attracted the attention of Hades, the god of the underworld, and even sent a great magician to chase and kill. In this case, the level of a six-star magician is not enough. You have to keep up with the times.

Now there is an excuse for reasonable progress, Sun Ran has thought of it a long time ago, and nodded with a smile when he heard this: "The harvest is great." I was very inspired by the way Hegus used his magic and how he cast his spells, and many of the doubts I had when I read "The Great Magician" were suddenly cleared. ”

"Oops. Brother, just say how powerful you are now, don't sell it. Zhao Shan said.

Sun Ran smiled, stretched out his left hand without holding a staff, and said softly: "Below the Great Magician, you can only cast second-level magic with your bare hands, but Hagus can release third-level magic without damage. ”

As he spoke, he had five fingers and one finger, and a third-level whirlwind technique appeared in his hand, and the casting speed was extremely fast, just like Hagus that day, and there was no phenomenon of magic backlash.

Zhao Shan clapped his hands and praised: "Yes, but the instantaneous third-level magic is not very useful, what if there is another great magician?" ”

Sun Ran said: "Don't worry. I've found that the same iteration of mana can also come in handy when unleashing higher magic, which in turn greatly increases the speed of casting. ”

As he spoke, Sun Ran pointed his staff at a small river below, the staff glowed, and after only one three seconds, a sixth-level destructive flame explosion appeared out of thin air and crashed into the river, producing a big explosion.

Sixth-level magic, one and three seconds of casting time, this is already far beyond the level of Hagus's performance.

Sun Ran explained: "These days, I often use magic to compete with others, and my mental power grows much faster than when I used to read books in the academy library. Now, I'm able to unleash five level 6 magic in a day. ”

At the level of a great magician, at least ten sixth-level magic spells are released in a day, surpassing Sun Ran in terms of quantity, but the casting speed may be slower than Sun Ran.

For example, Hagus, it takes about one and a half seconds for him to release a sixth-level magician, and in the face of an ordinary six-star magician, this speed is already fast to the sky, but in the face of Sun Ran before, he only has a small advantage.

And now Sun Ran has surpassed Haggs's spell casting speed, although it is only about 0.3 seconds faster, but in the battle of the magician, if the spell is cast a moment faster, it may be the difference between life and death.

Zhao Shan clapped his hands and smiled: "This is not bad, if there is another great magician, we will join forces, and we can easily defeat him without a sneak attack." ”

In the battle between magicians, when the level is similar, they are most afraid of fighting one more.

Sun Ran nodded: "There is still a gap between my spiritual power and the level of the Great Magician, and it is estimated that it will take a few years before I can release the seventh-level magic and become a true Great Magician." ”

Now that his body is sixteen years old, Sun Ran decided to let this body advance to the Great Magician realm at the age of twenty.

He turned to Zhao Shan again and said, "Sister, your strength is also very important, so these days, you have to study magic hard, and you can't be greedy for fun!" ”

"Okay." Zhao Shan nodded, she also felt that she had mastered too little magic, and she should improve it.

These words were addressed to the gods, after which the two stopped talking and concentrated on flying towards Cidis.

The speed of the two of them was not bad, and they walked all the way, and after a few days, they arrived at the green city of the capital of Cidis.

The name of the green city is well deserved, the whole city is like a hidden forest, full of towering ancient trees, green space, very beautiful.

To the east of the city is a small blue lake surrounded by violet towers, which according to the map suggest that the branch of the Northern Mage Federation is located.

Flying was forbidden in Greentown, so Sun Ran and Zhao Shan hired a carriage in the city, and half an hour later, the two stood at the entrance of the branch.

At the main gate, there is a large bronze statue of a magician standing in the wind with a cane, looking at this image, it should be the legendary magician Merlin.

Merlin's name is famous throughout the continent, because he is one of the most accomplished magicians in the continent for thousands of years, and legend has it that he once fought the Phoenix Saintess alone, and both sides died.

This phoenix saintess is amazing, and once killed the same legendary magician Anthony with a single blow. When the two are compared, Merlin becomes the greatest legendary magician.

Zhao Shan looked at the statue, snorted coldly, and said to Sun Ran: "This guy has such a big name, it is completely my light." ”

"It's just a false name, and it's not like I'm reincarnated as a mortal yet." Sun Ran said with a smile.

"Old lady...... This girl is just not happy. The next time I meet him, I'll have to beat him out! Zhao Shan snorted.

The two continued to walk forward, and when they arrived at the Magicians' Federation, they saw that there was a lot of chaos inside, and many magicians ran away, with anxious expressions, as if something big had happened.

Sun Ran stretched out his hand to stop a magic apprentice and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Don't stop ......" The magic apprentice looked impatient, but when he saw Sun Ran's outfit clearly, he immediately suppressed his anxiety and saluted: "My lord, something is wrong!" A terrible black mage has appeared in the south, who has just slaughtered a small town. None of the thousands of people in the town survived, all of them were turned into dark puppets, and the town became a ghost town, which was miserable! (To be continued......)
