Chapter 276: A New World

"Every magician pursues the essence of magic. The old magician of Merlin once had a saying. Every magician is a servant of magic. Do you think this statement is correct? ”

In Lin Xuan's expanded space, he was giving a lesson to his new disciple Hermione.

"Aren't we supposed to harness magic?" Hermione replied.

"That's right. A magician, with power beyond mortals. In a sense, we are competing with the laws of nature and the world for power. We don't need to be servants of anything. We don't need to fit into anything. All we have to do is harness. Harness the magic, harness the life, harness the soul. Until magic becomes our servant. ”

"What happens if I do all of the above?"

"That's another ultimate question. To understand this, you must first be clear about one thing, do you think you are free? ”

"Freedom? No, I feel like there's a lot of stuff holding me back. The rules of the school, the relationships between people, and the limits of one's own power, etc. ”

"Hehe, Hermione. All of the above are just from the bondage of your **. It's a necessary sense that you experience as a human being. It's not these that really bind you, but the rules in the dark, and even the world. ”

"This world?"

"Every world has its own set of rules. Birth, old age, sickness and death are the most common manifestations. In these seemingly ordinary life cycles, the limits of each world are hidden. That's the last line of defense that binds us. ”

"The limits of the world? What does that mean? Is it the upper limit of the power that the world can bear? It's hard for a mage to reach that level. As far as I know, Muggle technology can create nuclear weapons that can destroy a city in an instant, and even the most powerful mages can't do that. ”

"The power of nuclear weapons is based on a theory that is more universally recognized. Magic, on the other hand, is a completely different system. Technology can easily destroy a city. But if you do magic, you may need to collect a thousand mages to do it. And magic can easily turn a rat into a cup. But it can't do that with the technology of the whole world. That's the difference. The world is more tech-oriented. So the power of the magician is locked up. We cannot break through the limits of strength, the detachment of the soul, the limits of life. Because the world doesn't allow it. ”

"So we'll never be able to master magic, life, and soul completely?"

"Nick Meller, the former master of alchemy, barely got eternal life using magicians. But it also came at a cost. He began to gradually lose all his senses, all his senses. It's not that we can't do it, it's just that when you do one of them, those invisible rules weaken you in other ways. So that you always stay below some kind of rule line. This is the real bondage. ”

"Is there no kind of magic that can break this bondage?"

"You know, the magic of this world is also under this kind of rules. So you can't break it by magic."

"Then we can't do anything?"

"No, there's another possibility. We need an outside force to upset the balance. A rule is a rule because, in general, it is fixed. It's like a rigorous equation. Countless constants, combined to produce a fixed result. But when an unknown quantity is added to these constants. The balance is broken. ”

"Teacher, you're the unknown, aren't you?"

"Yes, I am a traveling mage who roams the world. I bring variables to every world I have visited. But in the end, it depends on the efforts of the magicians themselves. Hermione, you have what it takes to become a traveling mage. So I'm telling you all about it. Would you like to travel with me through the endless world? ”

"Maybe you don't believe it, teacher. My whole life has been waiting for an adventure like never before. Traveling through the endless world almost meets this requirement. He Min gave an extremely mature answer. At that moment, Lin Xuan even felt that he was talking to an adult.

"That's good because we're traveling to a whole new world."

......

The two stepped out of the expansion space. In front of you is a dense primeval mountain forest. All kinds of huge trees, vegetation grows wantonly, without the slightest trace of artificiality. Several strange birds, alarmed by the two, flew into the sky.

Although no obvious artificial traces were seen. But Hermione, who is a super scholar, can still instantly tell that this is not the original wizarding world. Neither the vegetation nor the animals are at all different from the original world's species. And as a magician, her perception also told her that there was something different here.

The level of activity of the magical element is simply incredible. Hermione only felt the magic in her own stage, and even had a surging feeling. It was as if in the next second he could cast a super magic that would destroy the hill in front of him.

"What is this place?"

"A continent of swords and magic. A truly magical world. As depicted in all fantasy stories. Humans, dwarves, elves, gnomes, goblins, minotaurs, and many other races live on the same continent. It's a small, but resilient world. ”

"I can feel as if some invisible shackles have been removed from my body in this world. There is an indescribable sense of ease. But at the same time, there is a more subtle sense of oppression, which exists somewhere. ”

"You're sensitive, Hermione. Unleash your magic and keep yourself in the state of Occlumency. Don't worry, there are so many outsiders in this world, and no big guy will pay attention to us. ”

"Is the world dangerous?"

"It's dangerous. At the beginning of the distant universe, the stars gave birth to the Star Soul Titans. They are on the side of the order, in an eternal war with the demons who sow chaos. The demon seduced one of the strongest Titans of all. It fell and became the king of demons. It has formed a legion to expedition the stars. During this time, he destroyed countless worlds and made the endless universe tremble over it. And now they're closing in on the world. ”

"What about this world?"

"This is a star soul that is being conceived on the path of the stars. Among the countless worlds, a tiny world of insignificance. But the world has gone through countless years that you can't imagine. The story can take years to tell. It's called ...... Azeroth. ”
