Chapter 20: Knights and Mages

After Chu Tianjiao left, the two continued to eat, but the atmosphere was obviously much duller.

Ning Xue'er took the initiative to speak while fiddling with the steak on the plate with a knife and fork: "Do you think I speak very impulsively?" ”

Mu Xinghe shook his head: "No, you must have your reasons for doing that." Not to mention ......"

"I don't think he's a good guy."

Ning Xue'er raised her head, and a fine light flashed in her eyes: "Yes, there is a bit of eye color!" ”

Then she continued: "Chu Tianjiao, the heir of the Chu Group, the family power is second only to our Ning family. ”

"My hostility to him has nothing to do with the family, just because he has a bad character!"

"This person is unscrupulous in order to achieve his goals, and he carries more than 30 innocent lives on his body."

"He is like a vicious snake, entrenched in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to move!"

Mu Xinghe frowned, sure enough, he knew people and faces, but he didn't know his heart, so a personable son turned out to be a scumbag with a human face and a beast's heart.

Ning Xue'er said again: "However, such a scumbag is a rare business wizard, who has been developing business in Jupiter in recent years, if it weren't for the fact that the Ning clan was like me, a proud daughter of the sky with magical talents, I am afraid that sooner or later he will be in his hands!" ”

As she spoke, Ning Xue'er began to mention herself intentionally or unintentionally, for fear that Mu Xinghe would not know that she was very powerful.

And Mu Xinghe didn't interrupt her Yaxing, she was willing to say that then he would take a moment to listen, after all......

Tonight I have a request for her.

Suddenly, Ning Xue'er lowered her syllables and her expression was solemn: "I forgot to tell you that he once wanted to eat swan meat and wanted to pursue me, but I refused." You were met by him today, and I was worried that he would be unfavorable to you, so when I left, I will ask Pai Fubo to protect you, and you should be more careful! ”

Mu Xinghe's heart was awe-inspiring, and the secret road was unlucky. This kind of thing is not uncommon in novels, and it is really unlucky that I didn't want it to become a reality.

The big family eats people and doesn't spit out bones, he has seen it in his previous life, but he didn't expect to be involved in it again in his first life.

At the end of the meal, Mu Xinghe and Ning Xueer walked out of the restaurant side by side. In the eyes of outsiders, the two are like a couple.

On the second floor of the restaurant, a pair of hazy eyes watched the two leave.

Along the way, Mu Xinghe took the initiative to ask about the information about magic, but Ning Xue'er didn't want to hide it, not to mention that there were also books about magic in her study.

She said proudly, "I know you're interested in magic, and I understand your eagerness to learn it, but magic isn't something you can learn just by trying to learn. Of the 10 billion people in Aqua Blue Star, less than 1,000 people are really qualified to contact magic, and less than 10 people can eventually become mages. ”

"Knight?"

Mu Xinghe asked curiously.

He had heard the term more than once.

"Is it the kind that rides a war horse and holds a spear?" He asked.

Ning Xue'er was stunned, her eyes were full of confusion: "What is that?" ”

Later, under Ning Xue'er's detailed explanation, Mu Xinghe realized that the knights of this era are not the same concept as the knights they said in that era, and the knights they said in this era are actually the squires of the mages.

In today's world, magic is respected, and those with high talent can become mages and be admired by thousands of people. Those with low talent can only settle for the next best thing, and cultivate with the goal of becoming a mage attendant, a knight.

Nowadays, the air of the world is filled with a variety of attribute elements, and cultivators absorb these elements, convert them into magic power, and store them in their bodies.

Knights are a group of people who are less talented than mages, but they also use magic, and there is no difference between the two.

It's just that the knight doesn't use magic in the traditional sense, so it's a kind of secondary magic, a melee type magic that combines magic and martial arts-magic martial arts.

Abbreviation: Martial arts!

The main difference between martial arts and magic is that martial arts do not require an extremely high level of perception like magic. But on the other hand, it needs to have a certain martial arts foundation, and its physical requirements are slightly higher than magic, and its ability tends to strengthen itself and weapons, so as to achieve the purpose of killing the enemy with cold weapons.

The source of the power of magic lies in the vast amount of knowledge, the understanding and study of magic. Martial arts, on the other hand, are more focused on battles that have been tempered for thousands of years.

There are all kinds of super monsters in the universe, these monsters have extremely high value, skin, bones, and blood are all precious alchemy materials, so any powerful mage will inevitably challenge the monsters, so as to obtain cultivation resources.

As the noblest profession in the universe, mages, their daily consumption is also staggering. Take the Ning Group as an example, even if it has most of the resources of Shui Lanxing, it is extremely reluctant to hire a mage who has just debuted.

The mages have a lot of opportunities, and they use them to read books and study magic at any time, so some of the daily chores and heavy work on weekdays naturally fall on the knights.

In addition to doing these chores, the main role of knights is to assist mages in battle, so this is also the reason why mages' scoirs must be knights and not ordinary people.

And why did the knights willingly serve as squires to the mages?

This brings us to the Soul Contract.

The soul contract is one of many contract magic, once the knight and the mage conclude this contract, the knight must serve the mage with all his heart and soul, and strive to ensure the safety of the mage.

Since the contract was so harsh, it stands to reason that no one wanted to sign it, but the knights fought for the qualification.

The reason for this is that the knight sacrifices his loyalty. Correspondingly, mages must also fulfill their obligations, otherwise they will be severely punished.

1. The mage must provide the knight's cultivation resources. After signing the contract, the two are in a master-servant relationship, so the knight's possession will go to the mage. However, knights also need to cultivate, and if the resources are sufficient, they must ensure the daily cultivation of knights (special circumstances are counted separately).

Second, the mage's qualifications will slowly bless the knight. This is the main reason why knights serve mages.

The reason why he turned into a knight is that he is still not talented in the final analysis, and if he can conclude a contract with a mage, then the knight will be exposed to the mage light, not only learning martial arts with a mage on the side to guide him (the principle of martial arts casting is similar to magic, but the difficulty is much lower than magic), and at the same time, it will be easier to improve his cultivation.

Taking apprenticeship level 10 as an example ("apprenticeship" is the first stage of cultivation), assuming that the limit of the mage's talent is level 10 and the limit of the knight is level 3, then after the two conclude a contract, the knight will receive a huge blessing in terms of qualifications, and this blessing will not appear all at once, but over time, the shackles of knight cultivation will be loosened, and eventually it can reach level 9 or even level 10.

Therefore, how to follow the master is an important knowledge that must be studied by knights, of course, most knights are not qualified to choose.

A mage can only sign one knight in his life, so those ordinary knights who are not in the stream are destined to be drowned in the crowd.
