Su Wen knew that after the trial, Ptolemy would definitely find his cheap disciple who had been left to dry for more than half a month, but he didn't expect it to be so fast and so timely. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Presumably, everything that happened in the trial space was watched by them.

"I'm coming. ”

Getting rid of the red dragon in high spirits, Su Wen cheered up, washed his face, and soon left the ring arena with Carlito.

Along the way, he didn't plan to ask anything, anyway, he should know what he should know sooner or later, but it was Carlito who opened the conversation first.

The short senior brother seemed to be in a good mood, and his tone was quite relaxed: "Your performance in the Proving Ground has already met expectations, especially in the section of the abandoned ore vein, and it is really not easy to use the things that the teacher gave you to this extent in just fifteen days. As for those little episodes that happened later, please don't pay too much attention to it, haha. ”

It's strange if you don't care.

Su Wen didn't really answer like that, he shook his head modestly and said, "I haven't actually made much effort, for me, trying to release magic nowadays is as easy as using a pre-set magic scroll. ”

"In essence, the two are really similar. "But to be honest, the Mentor has devoted his entire life to your arm, and its complexity is far beyond that of a magic scroll." ”

"I understand. ”

Su Wen replied, and at the same time, he was secretly pondering the meaning behind these words.

No archmagister is a general, this is already a well-established theorem on the glorious continent, and Ptolemy's archmagister as the most notorious part of history, of course, will not be caused by his own mediocrity. In other words, from the meeting and understanding that day, Su Wen vaguely felt that this old man would never be so low-key forever, compared with those strong people who brought supreme glory with their absolute strength, if he could get enough results in his life's research, then he would even be enough to be recorded in history.

Su Wen had already understood that he was probably involved in an extraordinary incident, and as for whether it was an accident or not, the answer was of course no - for Ptolemy's Grand Magister, his appearance may be an accident, but for the pit father system, it is definitely not. Because no matter when, Su Wen has not forgotten that the reason why he attracted Ptolemy's attention was because of his chicken rib magic talent, and this talent, in the final analysis, was given by the system.

His own appearance, the silent guidance of the pit father system, the research of the Ptolemy Dao Magister, and the seemingly calm and seemingly peaceful stage of the Brilliant Continent, which actually contains infinite hatred and humiliating history, these seemingly unrelated elements are mixed together, making Su Wen feel as if he has grasped some clues that can connect them, but if he really thinks about it, he can't see anything clearly.

But Su Wen didn't plan to delve into it, for him now, even if he could see everything clearly, he couldn't do anything.

At least, the current situation is not a bad thing for me.

It was already dawn when Suvin got out of Carlito's luxurious carriage and came to a classical building in the Duolun style. Surrounded by beautiful classical buildings, with towering castle-like spires, Su Wen recognized the mage tower area deep in the depths of St. Peter's College, where the heavyweight magicians worked and studied. It was spacious and quiet, and he followed Carlito into the building, and in a short time came to a large door at the end of the cloister.

Calitto knocked lightly on the door, and in a few moments, the door slowly opened with a dull sound.

The scene is crowded but not cluttered, the stone floor looks like hundreds of years old, the vicissitudes of history have left indelible traces on the rows of display shelves like a carving knife, and the large number of scrolls and books make the entire interior space like an ancient library, between them, the shimmering light suspended in the air makes the sky look like a dense cluster of stars, the light is neither bright nor dark, just right.

Su Wen took a deep breath, he loved this place.

Kalito coughed lightly, and then led Su Wen to the depths, and after walking more than ten meters between the display shelves, Su Wen finally saw the Ptolemy Archmage Mentor in a neat white high-necked mage robe. At this time, he was quietly greeting the two of them with a smile, and on the desktop in front of him, there was a heraldic rice paper with half of the magic runes drawn and a magic pen, it seemed that before this, the old man was carving a certain magic circle.

"Welcome, let's talk in another place, Su Wen, an old friend of yours wants to meet you. ”

There was no need to explain at all, Su Wen knew who the old friend was referring to.

Ptolemy's magic was so clever that Suven didn't even see a trace of the space being torn apart, and they were teleported together to another place. Judging from the scene outside the window in front of you, this should be the upper level of the Mage Tower.

But that wasn't the point, Su Wen's eyes were almost immediately drawn to the guy with bells and whistles, blue hair, and sharp-beaked monkey cheeks.

"You're coming really slowly. ”

Donald crossed Erlang's legs and tasted the dark red wine in the goblet while dissatisfied.

Su Wen felt the urge to rush away, but there were no doors, no stairs or other passages to leave, and it seemed that the rumors that 'the upper echelons of the Mage Tower could only be entered and exited by teleportation' were true.

"Keeping you waiting. ”

Ptolemy replied with a smile as he slowly sat down across from Donald. And because Carlito was still standing silently, Su Wen consciously did not intend to sit down, even though there were still many chairs in this place that seemed to be the living room.

Instead, Ptolemy turned around and kindly pointed to the seat beside him.

"You may be seated. ”

After Su Wen took his seat, Donald poured wine into the empty glass in front of the table, handed it to Su Wen, and then looked at him and smiled without saying a word.

"I have already obtained the information on your influence in this trial, and you have become initially proficient in the use of magic, even exceeding my expectations, although you were eliminated in advance, but it is harmless. ”

Ptolemy said slowly to Suven, and at the same time stretched out his hand, a washbasin-sized vortex appeared on the table in front of him, and the center of the vortex was a mirror, on which the scene of Suwen and Irene fighting spiders side by side in the underground mine tunnels appeared. In the video, Su Wen is holding a knife in his right hand for protection, and his left hand is constantly casting the Wind Blade Technique, looking like a normal battle mage.

"On the surface, at least, when you cast your magic, you're no different from a real magician's apprentice. ”

"But I know there's a big difference between me and them. Even when I cast the magic, I could only feel the changes in my arms, not the elements themselves, and the more I used it, the more obvious this feeling became with the help of a foreign object. ”

When facing this great magister, Su Wen didn't have the idea of lying at all for some reason, but seriously said his true feelings.

Because of this arm, there will be no magic Su Wen has indeed changed dramatically, he can instantly perform most of the first-ring magic, and he can even release the second-ring magic by reciting mantras like a normal magician, and in order to do this, he only needs to command his left arm through his mind, not directly command the element itself. Although this change is not a bad thing, Su Wen still feels a little awkward occasionally.

After all, it's not a real skill.

But Ptolemy's next words made him think.

"There's nothing wrong with this feeling, the biggest difference between humans and animals is that they know how to use tools. Magic, as it should have been, should have been more subtle than it is now, and its destiny should be to be fully utilized by the world, to be ever-changing, and to benefit all things, not to be the privilege of the few. The gray-haired old man paused, then looked up and continued, "It's been four hundred years, and until now, eight out of every ten elemental magic are still born for destruction and battle, it's a pity, it's a pity. ”

sighed twice in a row, so that Su Wen didn't know how to respond, maybe at this time, it was a good choice for him to remain silent.

After a long time, Ptolemy looked back at Suvin.

"My student, you don't have to be in that next ring fight, because it doesn't mean much to you. In three days' time, there will be an academic conference in the central tower of St. Peter's College, which will be relevant to you, and you will need to be tired of appearing when the time comes—you don't need to make much preparation, just show yourself properly. ”

Su Wen's heart moved, and he understood the reason why Ptolemy pushed himself out in the first place, what he wanted to show was obviously not himself, but his research results.

Then, Su Wen really had some expectations for this academic conference, after all, it was something that existed in his arm, and of course he was more impatient than anyone else to know the details.

"It's my pleasure. ”

Su Wen replied.

Ptolemy smiled and nodded, then looked around Donald and Suvin left and right.

"That's all about me, and your old friend seems to have something to say to you, so I won't bother me any more. ”

As the words fell, Ptolemy in his seat, along with Senior Brother Callito behind Su Wen, slowly disappeared, as if they had never appeared in this closed high-rise attic.

In the huge space, only Su Wen and Donald with a mysterious smile were left.

There was a brief silence.

"Don't worry too much, this old guy has broken his brain by doing research, and in my opinion, the essence of magic is destruction. Donald clenched his glass, squinting, dark and intriguing, "But he obviously thinks highly of you, which is quite rare." Do you know, before you, there were two people who could be so valued by this guy, one was Carlito, and the other should be considered your senior brother, he was very good in all aspects, but unfortunately his luck was not good, and now the grave has grown grass. ”

"That's a shame, Donald-senpai. ”

"Eh, don't be so serious, that bad old man downstairs can't hear - it's not that he can't, he's not interested. ”

"Oh, what are you doing with me, you can't stay at Ironforge anymore? and...... Do you know anything about the boring things in the trial space?"

"Believe it or not, I didn't do anything. ”

"I don't believe it. ”

"Then I can't help it. Donald shrugged, "I'm busy sneaking over this time, mainly to see how you're doing, and by the way, to ask you some questions." Since this bad old man seems to have chosen to trust you unreservedly, there are some things that it is better to make it clear sooner. ”

Suven had a bad feeling that something was not right because he noticed that something seemed to be missing in Donald's eyes, and at the same time something was more.

"You, where are you from?"

Donald asked softly. (To be continued.) )
