Chapter 63: Simple Mission

"Flying Arts" was classified as an astral system in ancient times, and in the Magical Council it belonged to both the force field system and the astral system, because it works by using the gravitational pull of the stars to counteract the constraints of the earth.

"It felt so good to fly. Lucien closed his eyes and felt the cold wind blowing on his face, it was a kind of exhilarating feeling like getting rid of all constraints, "It's just that the speed is a little slower, and you need to calculate the angle and direction of the gravitational force of the stars by yourself, which is really brain-consuming and mental, and you must be equipped with a magic array to assist in calculation." And before the high-level flying technique of the Six Rings, there was no way to be as fast as a magic steam train, let alone an airplane and supersound. Well, use fluid mechanics, aerodynamics or something to optimize it. ”

A calm male voice suddenly sounded in Lucien's ears, immersed in the beauty of flying: "Dear Mr. Arcanist of the Fourth Degree, you have violated Article 7, Paragraph 18 of the Alinge Regulations: 'You are not allowed to fly in Alinge unless you have permission from the Magical Council'. Will you pay the fine, or will you go to the Forbidden Prison for a while?"

Lucien opened his eyes as if he had been awakened from a sweet dream, and looked at the young man in front of him in a black battlemage robe, his black hair and brown eyes, his expression was serious, and his simple and smooth robe wore the mage badge with four rings, the crimson flame badge symbolizing the battle mage, the black scepter badge representing the mage's internal disciplinary status, and the white feather badge allowing flight, but he did not wear the Arcanist badge due to the security mission in Alinge.

Oops, I was so excited after learning to fly that I forgot about Alinge's ban on flying...... Lucien came back to his senses and realized that he had made a big mistake, and couldn't help but rub his forehead: "How much fine do I have to pay?"

Thinking that he only had sixty-one arcane points, Lucien asked again with a very wealthy temperament, "If you go to the Forbidden Demon Prison, how long will you be imprisoned?"

Seeing that Lucien did not resist, the man's serious expression softened slightly: "Mr. Arcanist, this is the southwestern suburb of Alinge. The penalty is much lighter than flying in the heart of Sky City, and you're committing it for the first time, so the penalty is thirty arcane points. If you go to the Forbidden Prison, you will be locked up for a month. ”

"A month? Okay, I'll pay the fine. Lucien made a decision with a little pain, as if he had set off a big fireworks to celebrate his promotion to the middle rank.

The man wrote a note on a piece of paper with magical effects and stamped his identity badge: "Mr. Arcanist." You just take it to the Department of Corrections and pay the fine. ”

Then he smiled and glanced at the dreamy and beautiful ring that Lucian was wearing on his right hand, "Mr. Evans, congratulations on your promotion to the middle rank. Become another magician who has advanced to the third ring before the age of twenty-two. I think you won't have any difficulties before the Sixth Ring. "The unique shape of this ring has long been known to the majority of magicians following the tabloids circulating among magicians.

Actually, I'm not yet twenty years old, and of course, if you count the age of my life, then I will be twenty-five...... Lucien sneered and smiled gently, "Xie Lu Xie, you are the first magician to congratulate me on my promotion. By the way, I don't know your name, can you tell me?"

The battle mage smiled humorously, "Of course, I'm not afraid of your retaliation, Mr. Evans. I'm Yurisian of the Song of the Silver Moon Alliance, and I'm currently part of both the Punishment Department and the Battlemage Division. Just now, my mage saw through the Eye of Alinge that it was a fourth-level arcanist who had violated the flight rules. He didn't dare to deal with it himself, so he reported me. It was when he saw the "elemental" of Holm's crown ring that he decided to teleport through the Alinge magic circle.

"Yurisian?Genius Arcanist of the Electromagnetic Department?" Because of his identity as a genius in the eyes of others, Lucien was instilled with the information of the geniuses of this generation of the Magic Council by his friends such as Lazar and Roque. Jurisian, a Level 4 Arcanist, almost won the Silver Moon Medal for his discovery of the photoelectric sensing phenomenon, but he is a strange battle maniac who applied to join the Battlemage Department and the Punishment Department himself.

Julisian smiled self-deprecatingly: "Mr. Evans, in front of you, how can I be embarrassed to call me a genius?" In the hearts of most young magicians, there are only two true geniuses in this generation, one is Mr. Felipe, who has won two Immortal Throne Awards, one Holm Crown Award and has been promoted to a high rank, and the other is Mr. Evans. I have to say that your presence has raised the 'criteria' of genius, as if you are not a true genius without receiving the highest honor symbol in your field. So, Rachel, Arthur, Samantha, Larry, and others were unfortunately reduced to ordinary magicians. ”

He used humorous words to euphemistically show his respect for Lucien, and was a very good talker.

After a few pleasantries, Yurisian activated the Alinge magic circle with the black scepter badge and disappeared in place.

Lucien looked at the penalty slip in his hand, shook his head and smiled: "Now there are sixty arcane points a month subsidy, which can barely cope with the expenses of daily life, experiments and potions, but if you want to squander the potions every month from the second to the third ring, and the magic materials are not worth money, there is no way." ”

"Suddenly, I regretted a little that I had to make a purification magic array, otherwise I would have the first monthly annuity payment starting in July. According to the current promotion and sales of Holm Minerals and Harvest Company, there should be hundreds of gold tales per month in the first few years, and when it is completely promoted in these countries, it is not impossible to have five or six thousand, or even ten thousand gold talers per month, which is equivalent to a high-level magician. ”

Putting away the fine, Lucien descended slowly, while looking at the darkness to the west: "Natasha, John, Uncle Joel, Aunt Elisa, Teacher Victor, Elena, Phyllis...... I'd love to find a chance to go back and see them......"

As Lucien slowly descended to the second floor of the villa, there was a creak and a window opened, and Reilia and Heidi rubbed their eyes and looked out. They were too tired to sleep, and they wanted to look at the beautiful night sky and think back to the stories their mothers had told them.

Far from home and family, they came to Alinge to study magic, and after the heavy homework and spell-casting practice, they could not resolve the emotions of longing, and they could not communicate with Alto Natasha like Lucien.

"Huh, Mr. Evans?" As soon as Heidi opened the window, Heidi saw Lucien floating beside her, who was about to return to the meditation room.

Lucien smiled, "Good evening, Heidi, Reiria." Why, can't you sleep? Do you want to do a set of arcane exercises?"

The eyes of the two little girls, who were originally in a daze, suddenly widened, and they couldn't help but take a step back. Smiled dryly: "Actually, we are here to close the windows, otherwise it will be too cold to sleep." Happy New Year, Mr. Evans. I hope you can become a mid-level magician in the new year!"

Perfunctory with words of good luck to Lucien, Heidi and Reilia slammed the window shut, but after two seconds, the window opened again with a clang. Two small, pink and slightly freckled faces lined up and down, staring at Lucien, his feet without stepping on anything:

"Mr. Evans. You, you're going to be a mid-level magician?Have we been sleeping for a year?!"

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

After two weeks, Lucien built the "Lucian's Infrared Light Eye" and "Muskeline Star", the unique magic of the three rings on the "Book of Stars and Elements", in his soul, and stabilized his strength, and then went to the Alinge Magic Tower to change the mage badge.

So far, Lucien has built a total of twenty-seven first-ring magic, sixteen second-ring magic, and five third-ring magic in his soul. Twenty percent more than the average three-ring magician who has just advanced, and the most different thing is that in addition to the flying technique, Lucian's other four three-ring magics are all unique magic!

In the Wizard's Management Department, Eric's stiff face still had that suspicious smile. He stretched out his hand and said, "Congratulations, Evans, you can be promoted to the third ring in just one year, and you are worthy of the name of genius." Even with the help of magic potions, it means that you have a very solid ability on the basis of mathematics and physics. Generally speaking, there will be a high-level mage or archmage who will accept you as a student at this time. ”

"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Eric. But not necessarily, at least not in the direction of the rest of the astrology and the elements. Lucien shook Erik's hand, then handed over the Wizard's Badge.

Eric looked at Lucian's magician badge and reminded, "Evans, you have been promoted to the middle rank, and the magic badge can have a constant magic effect, what do you want?"

"Mr. Eric, can you choose other rewards instead of constant magic effects?" Lucien had the "elemental" ring, and he didn't value the constant magic effect on this mid-level badge, so he asked directly.

This situation is common for Arcanists with good magic items, so Eric was not surprised, and asked officially, "Evans, what reward do you want?" ”

"Mr. Eric, I want a supermagic technique, a spell that increases the distance. Lucien had already figured out the answer. This magic technique is performed in conjunction with the "Lucian's Great Fireball", and although the mental power consumed will be tripled, it can counteract the instability of this magic.

The Magic Council has inherited and developed a variety of supermagic techniques, such as "Spell Silence" that Lucien knows but does not systematically do, "Spell Instant" that can cancel out the casting buffer, "Spell Strength" that increases magic power, "Spell Extreme" that gives full play to the effects of magic, and "Spell Range" that increases spell distance and range.

These supermagic skills must have a certain Arcanist or Wizard level to be redeemed, and they are expensive, and the "Spell Increase" that Lucian wants to learn at the moment is the cheapest of them.

Eric Mur calculated: "The base value is the same, but Evans you may have to compensate ten to fifty arcane points." ”

"No problem. Lucien had a feeling that his heart was dripping blood, he had just paid the fine, and he only had thirty-one arcane points left on his body, and he had sold the cold iron dagger that he couldn't use a few months ago, and if it wasn't enough, he could only sell the weak dagger.

The magic badge was placed in the magic cage along with the documentation written by Eric, and the bright silver light disappeared as the bell rang.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the bell rang crisply, and the silver light lit up again. When everything subsided, a black-ring badge with a silver background appeared inside the magic cage, and a thick piece of parchment rolled up.

Eric picked up the badge and sensed it, his expression becoming slightly strange: "Evans, a total of thirty arcane points have been deducted from you." At the same time, you have been given a mandatory task. ”

Lucien has entered the middle level regardless of arcane or magic, so naturally he has to accept the mandatory task of the council once a year, and it happens to be a new year.

"Mission?" Lucien was surprised that he had only received the task two weeks after he had been promoted, so he took the magic badge and the parchment with the "Spell Increase" supermagic technique written on it, and confusedly sensed the information inside the magic badge.

"Demon Removal Quest (Easy): In the depths of the Karpas Mountains in Karpasia County, Holm Kingdom, a three-ring magician failed to summon a low-level devil when his spell failed, and he was hit and died, while several low-level demons entrenched in his castle. Please clear them with other magicians who have accepted the task. Completing the quest rewards fifty Arcane Points. (To be continued.) )
