Chapter Seventy-Eight: The First Small Goal

"We're grasshoppers on a rope now!"

Karl touched little Lucy's head and said helplessly: "It is impossible to leave the City of Silver Tide, the power of the Ancient Magic Empire, even the power of the Mage Tower left over from thousands of years ago, is not something we can resist now." ”

"It's not okay to stay in the Silver Tide City, the mage imprint of the Ancient Magic Empire on our body is too dangerous, especially since we have also attracted the attention of the Heavenly Song Holy Maiden and which Holy See bigwig, once it is discovered, we can only be burned at the stake......"

The more Carl talked about it, the more he felt that he was in a very dangerous situation, and that he was about to end the rhythm if he was not careful. If it weren't for the fact that he still had the last hole card in his heart, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to talk to little Lucy so calmly now.

Although the magic mark of the Old Magic Empire cannot be removed, it can be concealed in disguise. After all, magicians are not idiots, for thousands of years, they have been constantly fighting with the Holy See, fighting wits and courage, and it is impossible to think of a way to hide their own magic marks.

The Radiant Holy See was able to think of a magic technique that monitored magical imprints, and it was impossible for a mage, known for his wisdom and creativity, not to have invented magic to hide his identity. Otherwise, the mages of this world would have been completely wiped out by the Holy See and uprooted, instead of gradually reviving as they are now, and there is a tendency to re-emerge and compete with the Radiant Church.

This kind of hidden identity spell may not be in the inheritance of the ancient magic empire, but Princess Alicia will definitely have it.

Although the current continent countries are all built on the ruins of the collapse of the Magic Empire, most of the royal families and nobles of each country are the descendants of heroes who rebelled against the ancient Magic Empire. But thousands of years have long since exhausted their hatred and hostility with the mage.

The current hostile attitude towards mages is nothing more than political correctness that has been inherited from inertia. In fact, whether it was out of political necessity to fight against a single glorious church or the interests of their own family, the nobles have been secretly conniving and even sheltering the existence of the mage.

Karl believed that most of the powerful royal families and noble families had one or two mages hidden. Otherwise, where did the magic potions and enchanting equipment needed by the knights of these families come from, and they only relied on those family warlocks to create them themselves?

The kingdom of Ray Grace in the Northland has a deep relationship with witches and wizards, and in the later stages of the Dawning War, it secretly sheltered many fallen mages. These mages have developed silently, and even formed an organization of mages called the "Ice Palace", which exists openly and honestly in the name of serving the goddess of ice and snow.

However, if Carl wants to get this secret method of hiding his identity, he will have to dream a few more times. Moreover, you must be careful enough before getting the secret method, otherwise, if you are found by the church and burned at the stake, it will be too late to get the secret method. He didn't dare to bet that he would hang up again, and he wouldn't cross again—even if it was possible, if he was resurrected on Princess Alicia, it wouldn't be a pit death.

"We have two problems to solve now, one is to find a way to hide your identity as soon as possible, you don't have to worry about this, I have a way to solve it......"

Since they are all grasshoppers on a rope, Carl didn't hide them anymore, but said directly to little Lucy: "There is another problem, that is, to raise our mage level as soon as possible, and break through from apprentice to official mage as soon as possible, the apprenticeship code only restricts magic apprentices, once we become official mages, we will be free immediately, and we can leave here immediately, and we don't have to worry about being discovered by the church." ”

"But it takes a lot of money!" little Lucy frowned as Carl rubbed his head.

"That's right, we need money, lots and lots of money!"

"The process of promotion of magic apprentices is the transformation of spiritual power into magic refining process, this kind of transformation not only requires time to meditate, but also requires a lot of spell practice, after all, the process of practicing spells is the process of continuous combination of spiritual power and the origin of the meditation world - so, if we want to break through as soon as possible, we must first establish a magic laboratory for us to practice spells safely. Not only does it require a lot of money, but it also has to be a very safe place, and your house is not good, it is not safe enough, and it is easy to expose your identity......"

"To be promoted to a full-fledged mage, an apprentice needs mental power to reach the point of casting twenty apprentice spells, and the increase of mental power can generally only be achieved through meditation, but with the right magic potions, this process will be greatly shortened...... However, whether we buy magic potions or make them ourselves, we need money......"

"Also, from now on, we have to work hard to increase our strength, even if our identity is revealed in the future, we will have enough strength to resist and escape!"

Speaking of this, Carl looked at little Lucy and couldn't help but smile: "Fortunately, we are not bad luck. Little Lucy, haven't you noticed? You've begun to awaken the knight's bloodline!"

"Is it true?"

Little Lucy couldn't help but show a surprised expression, she raised her hands, looked left and right, and couldn't help but say: "I also feel weird, since my father and mother left, my strength and food have been increasing, recently I feel like I have a fever in my body, and I often dream at night that I have become a big monster, swimming in magma......"

"This is the process of the awakening of the knight's bloodline!"

Karl said with a smile: "However, if there is no knight's cultivation secret method and auxiliary potions, this awakening process is very long, and it is likely that due to the lack of necessary nutrition and energy supplements, it will not be able to fully awaken in the end......

The awakening of the knight's bloodline is not an instantaneous change, but like biological development, a long-term subtle evolution, the monster-like physique and spell-casting ability are not available as soon as they wake up, which requires sufficient stimulation and nutrition in the process of development. Otherwise, even if it is fully awakened in the end, it will be a defective product with a crippled ability.

"I still need money!"

This time, without Carl's explanation, little Lucy understood that the awakening of knights not only requires a large amount of high-nutrition and high-energy food, but also requires some special potions to cooperate, and these also require a lot of money.

"That's right, I can get dozens of recipes for secret potions and ointments to assist knights in their cultivation, but it also takes money to buy these materials......"

Karl couldn't help but sigh and said, "So, let's work together to make money now!"

After thinking about it, Carl seemed to feel that this was a bit demoralizing, and touched little Lucy's head again, and smiled: "Let's set a small goal first, earn him a million gold talers!"
