The consultation fee of ten gold coins was just a joke, no one would take it seriously, and what really surprised Suvin was that Donald actually had a relationship with Ptolemy, and the latter also entrusted him to bring things to himself?

Although it is not surprising that Donald and the Grand Magus Ptolemy are also at the top of the combat power of the Duolun Empire, after learning this, Su Wen quickly discovered a question - did Ptolemy's observation of himself start before Professor Lila told Su Wen about "about to enter St. Peter's College"?

You know, you don't have to do it yourself to observe an object!

If this assumption is true, then in the six months that Tridis, the person who has had the most contact with himself, apart from Liticia, is undoubtedly Donald and his strange doppelgangers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Don't think too much about it, that old guy isn't old enough to command me. Donald seemed to know what Su Wen was thinking, so he explained with dissatisfaction, "At most, it's a request, if I didn't see you pleasing to the eye, I wouldn't have agreed to this matter." Well, in short, after handing over this thing to you, what I have to do is basically completed, and you will officially become a student of that old thing, and your seniority has suddenly improved by three or five levels, which should be worth rejoicing. ”

"I didn't think much of it, tell me what it brought me?"

Su Wen didn't intend to stay too long on this issue, and immediately opened the topic.

"Well, this. Donald said, pulling out a heavy book from behind him.

The book's cover, a dull yellow hue, looks very old, nearly 10 centimeters thick and almost a quarter of the tabletop in length and width. Su Wen felt its weight just by looking at it, and when Donald placed the huge book on the table, the dull tremor made Su Wen wonder if he had put down a lump of iron of the same size.

Donald forgot about the book and pushed it to Su Wen's side, and the grinding sound made Su Wen want to cover his ears. How much does this thing weigh, is it really just a book?

"Look through it. ”

Donald said.

Su Wen stepped forward and placed his hand on the heavy cover, which felt like the old fur of some kind of animal. But when he opened it upwards with all his might, he found that the cover seemed to be one with the book, and that it did not move until he exerted six or seven points of strength, and the green tendons between the muscles of his arms bulged, that it was very reluctant to separate from the pages.

Supporting the book cover with both arms, he turned it to the side completely, allowing Hou Suwen to look at the title page, only to see that the pale yellow paper was full of dense inscriptions. They were intricate, but they seemed to be extremely regular, and although Su Wen couldn't feel the magical aura emanating from these inscriptions, if each piece of paper of the book had so many intricate lines like a title page, then he couldn't imagine how much effort it would take to make it—these inscriptions were obviously not meaningless symbols printed in bulk on ordinary paper, but magic circles outlined with a magic pen on heraldic rice paper.

So, is this a magic scroll?

Suvin was quick to deny the idea.

Magic scrolls were meaningless to him who couldn't communicate with the elements, and since Ptolemy had given him the book, these heraldic rice papers depicting magic circles would certainly not be simple magic scrolls.

"The book is only five pages long and represents the five elements. ”

Donald had been prepared for Su Wen's doubts, and explained to him, "Tell me what you're seeing now, is it a bunch of graffiti that looks esoteric but is actually messy?"

This analogy is really apt, Su Wen had no choice but to nod.

"That's right, it means that you don't have any sense of the elements, otherwise you should feel a noticeable increase in temperature even if you don't see a sea of fire, because you are looking at the page of fire in the five elements. It's not easy to do this, more than sixty percent of the human beings in the Brilliant Continent are able to perceive the elements, and a small number of them have magical talents and can become elemental mages, and in the current historical records, there has not been a person who has magical talents but has no perception of the elements, you are likely to be the first. ”

"Should I feel honored......

"Of course, it's unique. ”

“......”

Su Wen didn't know what to say, and he really pretended to be a coercive ensurance.

"This book of elements was made by that old fellow especially for you, and it contains doorways that even I can't figure out, and what is being done now is the detection of your elemental perception, which is also its most basic function. Donald said, "I've determined that you don't have a sense of fire, so now turn to page two and try the water element." ”

The thickness of the whole book is 10 centimeters, and if there are only 5 pages in total, then the thickness of one page is 2 centimeters. Su Wen felt that this thickness could no longer be called a page, and perhaps it was more appropriate to call it a heraldic paper brick, because when he lifted this strange rice paper, which weighed almost hundreds of kilograms, Su Wen felt that it was like a flat brick.

The second page is still full of tens of thousands of runes, which are quite different from the runes on the first page, and it seems that the lines are softer, but it still can't get rid of the impression of being messy but unnoticed. Donald knew just how bad the test results were just by seeing Su Wen's pair of cow-like expressions.

Page III. ”

Still feeling nothing.

Page 4 ......

Page 5...... Well, the results of the test are no different from the previous judgment, and the five elements of water, fire, wind, earth, and light are all insensitive, which is reasonable. Donald raised his hand and closed the Book of Elements with a "snap", "Don't be discouraged, if you really feel it, it means that you are no different from other geniuses, 167's magic conductivity looks scary, but it is not enough for you to be favored by the old guy." There is no shortage of geniuses and promising young people in the world, and they will be dazzled if they see too much. ”

Su Wen understands this truth, but he is afraid that the old guy will find that he is not as good as a real genius after trying it.

"Do you want me to bring this thing back, or do you just do a test here?" Su Wen noticed a very real problem, even if this book of elements made by the Ptolemy Archmage himself had a lot of mysteries, even turning the pages would take a lot of energy for him to move the whole book...... Don't look at Donald's previous movements relaxed, according to Su Wen's estimates, this book weighs nearly a thousand kilograms, and the five of them may not be able to lift it together.

"Of course, take it back, the super high weight is just one of the anti-theft measures of this book, and you haven't bound it yet. ”

"Hey, do you recognize the Lord with blood?"

"You've read a lot of storybooks, just put your hands in the grooves on the back of the book and let it record your information. Donald pointed to the backside facing upwards, where there was a slightly downward depression, about the size of two hands combined.

Su Wen pressed his hands as he could, and the burning sensation that came at the same time made him frown, it felt like touching a cup with boiling water, but fortunately it was not unbearable. After about five seconds, the burning touch disappeared, and when Su Wen retracted his palm and looked again, he found that his palm was already red, and the groove on the back of the book, which was not very obvious, had returned to flatness.

Without Donald's reminder, Su Wen tried to pick up the book, and the feeling of starting it was still a little heavy, but it was already the weight of the paper itself, dozens of times lighter than the previous one. Gently waving this book of elements weighing dozens of pounds, Su Wen could feel its overwhelming pressure, considering its terrible weight to the outside world, Su Wen felt that if it had the hardness and toughness to match the weight, then this might be a very good melee weapon.

Well, it's better to dispel this idea, after all, he is a magician, and if Ptolemy knew that he was considering using this book as a melee weapon, he would probably be very angry.

"What else does this book do besides detecting my elemental perception?"

Su Wen placed the Book of Elements on the table, felt the light sound of the overwhelmed weight of the table legs, and asked Donald.

"Find out for yourself, I'm not interested in telling you everything, there will be no surprises at all. ”

"What do you want to do with this kind of thing!"

That being said, since Donald didn't mean to say it, Su Wen didn't plan to ask. And after all, it is an irrefutable fact that he took 20,000 gold coins and ran away, and this time Donald not only did not chase after him, but also gave himself two things - although this book of elements was only a gift, but the bottle of scarlet potion was real, at least it showed that he did not plan to pit himself to the end?

Thinking about it this way, Su Wen didn't plan to investigate Donald's various cheating behaviors, and the top priority was to get as far away from him as possible.

"Are you alright? Then I'm leaving. ”

Su Wen said.

Donald glared at Su Wen and said displeasedly: "Tsk, you are leaving again, isn't it good to chat with me, don't you want to know what I found on the Pandora Ancient Battlefield?"

"Not at all. ”

......

After everything was explained, Donald did not stay with Su Wen again, and Su Wen left the mercenary union without regret.

If Su Wen hadn't met Donald here, then he would probably have chosen to stay in Eremo Town for a while, and wait until he had figured out everything before considering entering the Iron Furnace Province, but since this was the case, it would be better to apply oil to the soles of his feet in advance.

At the same time, Su Wen realized that it may not have been a coincidence that Donald himself met in the first place. At that time, his reputation as a "waste genius" had spread throughout the Tridis Academy of Magic, and it was when Professor Lila had a headache about his qualifications, and it was estimated that the Ptolemy Grand Magician already knew his name, and then entrusted Donald to contact him. Donald didn't seem to shy away from this, and his answer was tantamount to a quick admission of the matter - there was really no gratuitous concern in this world, and it was indeed too far-fetched to provide side information as an explanation for Donald's friendship with him......

However, what made Su Wen think about it was that if Donald had doubts about his origins, did it also mean that this suspicion would be inherited from the Ptolemaic Grand Magus?

Thinking of this, Su Wen held the heavy book of elements, but there was no special excitement in his heart.

Unless you completely give up the resources brought by the traverser, it will be too difficult not to be discovered. Perhaps exchanging that defective magical talent from the very beginning was the biggest mistake he made after entering the Brilliant Continent.

It's time to find a way out for yourself.

Su Wen said to himself.
