Chapter XXIII: Seizure

An invisible light swept over Felipe and the mysterious man's bodies, and the silver-gray door opened back, revealing a colorful honeycomb corridor.

On the top of the corridor, an old man in a bright red magic robe was looking at them with lightning in his eyes, and said with a slap on his face: "Was Blaise here just now? Otherwise, Hathaway's experiment would not have been inexplicably changed! Moreover, I can feel it!"

The young man quietly bared his teeth: "Maybe......"

Then, innocently, he said, "What the hell is going on?"

............

While!

The "white bone wall clock" on the academic tower made a long, cold sound.

Downey had just carved the last line in his soul, and the spell model collapsed inward, frantically absorbing the sea of energy, life and death intertwined, and the "power power" continued to split and grow, bringing about turbulent and violent changes.

When everything subsides, Donnie's soul has an additional "crystal" with a complex structure, which circulates mysteries, contains mysteries, and is a visual manifestation of some kind of law, and this also shows that Downey has crossed the apprenticeship stage and become a full-fledged magician!

This is a breakthrough that countless magic apprentices have dreamed of, but most of them struggle to achieve.

As long as you become a full-fledged magician, you can not only gain the strength to easily kill apprentices and ordinary people, but also automatically become a municipal councilor in your home city, which is equivalent to a lord and an ordinary baron, and for a civilian child, it is equivalent to stepping into the upper class!

Donnie, who came from a bad background, looked at himself with joy, since he almost touched the "black armor" a few months ago. I have never had a similar nightmare with Carl and Sammy, my life is stable, my studies are at ease, and the breakthrough of mental power seems to be much easier than before, so after Carl and Sammy, I can also successfully break through before the arrival of the New Year! This is also a good result among the apprentices of the Heideler School of Witchcraft and Wizardry over the years.

Although some of them became official magicians before entering the Heideler School of Magic, the vast majority of apprentices were only qualified to reach the official rank at the end of their first year, and few were able to break through before the new year.

“...... It feels like those nightmares have brought about a soul refinement, so the mental power will grow much faster and the foundation will be solid......" Donnie thought thoughtlessly. "It's a nightmare alone. What would happen if I touched that black full-body armor at the end of the day?"

"It's not right, maybe it's controlled by that black armor, you can't be too greedy...... Well. Take advantage of the New Year's holidays to go home and have a look. By the way, thank you, Mr. Doros. Without his generous help, I don't know how long I would have had to wait to become a full-fledged mage......"

............

24 years of the Arcane calendar, the end of the Ice Moon. The cold wind was cold, dripping into ice, so cold that passers-by tightly "shrunk" in their coats, and their hats were pressed low.

"It's so cold before I know it......" On the six-pointed platform, Carl pulled his men's suit and exhaled deliberately, so that the white air on his mouth was filled, like a mist.

Although Donnie has become an official magician, he did not bless himself with a spell to resist the cold at this time, so he also shivered and gathered his black magic robe: "Yes, it feels like winter when you arrive in Rentat." ”

The Heideler School of Magic is located in the necromantic realm, the four seasons are constant, monotonous and silent, the temperature is regulated by the lock, it is difficult for the people inside to feel the change of seasons, after leaving the necromantic realm, Heideler City is infected by the breath of the necromantic realm all the year round, which is almost the same, and there is a magic air conditioner in the magic steam train to keep warm, therefore, in addition to the snow on the road, Donnie and Carl Fang have a sense of winter at this time.

"I've got to go home, see you after New Year's leave. Carl smiled sweetly, and then he waved his hand, "By the way, Happy New Year!"

Sammy and Jones were separated from them at the Heideler platform, after all, the routes were different.

Seeing Carl disappear into the crowd on the platform, Donnie sighed unreachably, half a year had passed, and he still didn't quite fit into Carl's appearance.

He shook his head, shook his head, and walked out of the platform, where he had booked a ticket to return to his hometown tomorrow, and today he had to visit and thank Mr. Doros and a few teachers who had taken good care of him at school.

Near Triumph Square, Donnie walked to the "Knowledge Bookstore" excitedly, wanting to tell Mr. Doros the good news of his promotion to a full-fledged mage as soon as possible.

"How so?" Donnie stood in front of the Knowledge Bookstore, not understanding what was going on.

I saw that the door of the "Knowledge Bookstore" was closed, and there were several notes pasted on it, which were slightly dim and blurry.

"How did you close the door?" Donnie approached in surprise, carefully discerning the words on the note.

"The shopkeeper evaded taxes and was specially sealed. Holm Tax Office. ”

"Suspected of selling prohibited books, it is hereby jointly sealed. Magical Council Corrections Department, Holm Police Department. ”

"Suspected of selling fake and shoddy magic items, it is hereby jointly seized. Disciplinary Department of the Magical Council, Rentat City Hall. ”

......

Donnie stared at the seals dumbfounded, muttering to himself, "What the hell did Mr. Doros......

Ten years ago, with the further spread of magical objects and the increasing number of different types of alchemy workshops, social life in Holm changed dramatically, and one of the distinctive features was the increasingly detailed division of labor, so the then Prime Minister, Duke Heinrich, split the previously mixed government departments to deal with this situation.

Although it seemed that Mr. Doros had committed a crime, Downey refused to leave without thinking of his help to him, and found the owner of another small shop nearby and questioned him carefully.

"A few months ago, Doros was summoned by someone from the tax department for tax evasion. ”

After being summoned, Doros never returned, and in the next few days, people came to post seals, tsk, several in all. ”

"I heard that Doros is in the Forbidden Prison and will not be released for at least five or six years. ”

Facing Donnie, who wore the official mage coat of arms on his chest, the owners of the nearby small shops did not dare to hide it. I don't dare to use my private nicknames for tax collectors and policemen.

"Forbidden Prison ......" Donnie whispered, struggling and hesitating, deciding to visit Mr. Doros, after all, he helped him a lot.

Unfortunately, Donnie was soon disappointed, as the council told him that Doros was held in a long way from the forbidden prison and that he would only be able to take all his vacations to make a round trip, so he followed the staff's advice. Wrote a letter to Doros. and left their own contact place.

............

Woo!

Bang Bang!

The sound of the train entering the station frightened all the children playing nearby with frightened faces, and even the adults around were a little afraid, the town has not been connected to the railway for a long time, and the residents here have not yet gotten used to this behemoth that can run on its own.

Donnie slowly stepped down from the magic steam train. Familiar buildings come into view. Familiar distant mountains. The emotions in my heart are complicated and difficult to speak.

"Hey, isn't that Donnie of the White family?"

"That's right. It's Donnie, he looks like he's grown up a lot, wait a minute, the badge on his magic robe seems to have changed?"

"A black ring on the silver bottom, he, he's a noble magician!"

In an instant, the eyes of the townspeople who were familiar with Donnie before, full of awe and envy, seemed to be no longer the Donnie they knew, but Mr. Strange Magician, who was more noble than the old mayor!

Although they hadn't met the official magician a few times, they were impressed by every stingy mayor's hospitality, and before they knew it, the neighbor's naughty kid had become a high-flying Mr. Magician?

The change in the attitude of the residents could not hide the increasingly sensitive Donnie, he was a little uncomfortable, a little emotional, and a little heartfelt, no wonder everyone wanted to become a magician, to become a nobleman, at least until he could really explore the world, this feeling can push him to work hard.

After a brief pause, someone left the platform and shouted, "White, White! Your little Downey is back! He's become Mr. Magician!"

Downey quickened his pace and headed for the platform exit.

It didn't take long for a middle-aged man who seemed to have been polished by the wind and frost to appear on the street near the platform, he looked old, his hair was gray, if it weren't for the lack of wrinkles, some people believed that he was fifty or sixty years old, and behind him, was a fat middle-aged woman, a youthful girl.

The expressions of the three were equally excited and joyful, and the two ladies were already in tears.

"Father, Mother, Lily......" Donnie walked over with a slightly choked voice.

His father, White, took his hand tightly and patted it vigorously: "Good, good, good......"

At this moment, Donnie felt that his hard work and dangerous experience were worth it!

............

After spending the New Year leisurely and happily, Donnie is very satisfied with his life, the only unpleasant thing is that the town is still very backward, not only the street lights are only near the platform, but also there is no home TV, etc., and he can only listen to the "sound of mysteries" in the open space at the east end of the town.

On this day, Donnie was just about to go out with his parents and sister to listen to the "voice of mysteries", when he suddenly saw a carriage engraved with the coat of arms of nobility parked in front of him.

"Hello, dear Mr. White, my master, Baron Herdos, would like to invite you to his estate, and I hope you will help him solve a problem that has been bothering him for a long time. A man who looked like a butler got out of the carriage.

Donnie knew that Baron Herdos was the lord of these towns, and he didn't dare to slack off: "I don't know what the matter is, if I can help, I will definitely go." ”

The housekeeper did not hide it: "My master has an ancient castle, which often shows signs of haunting, and I have asked several magic apprentices and mages to help before, but to no avail, and two of the apprentices have died in it." I heard that you have become an official magician and a student of the Heidler School of Magic, so my master earnestly asks for your help, you are a professional. ”

Donnie was a little reflexively scared of this kind of thing, but before he could refuse, he heard the butler say, "Whether you succeed or not, my master will give you ten gold coins for the Queen, and if you can solve this matter, there are many more!" (To be continued......
