Chapter 176: The Return

Walking through the streets of the Vatira plane, it is as if you are in the ancient times of the Colin plane.

Ordinary people here are still wearing the original shabby and simple clothes, many of which are still patched, not to mention any style and color differentiation.

There are relatively few mages in the city, and ordinary people have to bend down to salute when they see them, which makes Ciri very uncomfortable, and he has to find a place to buy a set of ordinary people's clothes to change into in order to continue to experience the customs here.

Colin plane mages are no longer so rare in the eyes of ordinary people, and only academic mages are treated with some special respect. Ordinary people respect academic mages for their contributions to the Colin plane, and for the status that academic mages have earned for the Colin plane.

Even the Colin Plane has only respect for academic mages, not reverence, which are two completely different emotions. Respect is an opinion that comes naturally from the heart, while reverence is mostly formed by external oppression.

Ordinary people must be in awe of magicians because of the power they have, and it is a power that has no limits. In the Colin plane, academic mages attach great importance to the group of ordinary people who continue to breed mages, and have formulated strict rules to protect ordinary people. Here in the Vatira plane, there is obviously not as much emphasis on the ordinary people who gave birth to them, so the ordinary people show reverence rather than respect for the mage.

In fact, the Vatira Plane originally had a magic academy, although it was not supported by the magical academy space integrated management system of the Colin plane, but the magic academy itself could cultivate many talents in this form. Before the nobles were overthrown, this magic academy did cultivate a lot of mage talents for the Vatira plane, but after the rise of the family-style noble mage, the atmosphere in the academy was messed up, and the source of students was completely monopolized by the mage family. The Academy of Magic became a teaching base for a small number of mage families, and finally Devit shut it down.

The passage of ordinary people to the mages of Vatila has been firmly blocked, and magic is only a means of consolidating power in the hands of aristocratic mages, and they will not think of using magic to improve the living standards of ordinary people and promote the development of the Vatira plane.

There is really no difference between the existence of magic or not in the whole social structure, and it is still a structure of nobles and commoners. The addition of magic has strengthened the dominance of the aristocracy, making it more difficult for society as a whole to bring about change, and the side effects may outweigh the positive effects.

The entire social structure of Vatila is now fully solidified, presenting a dead, two-tier structure. A mage is a mage, an ordinary person is an ordinary person, and all channels for ordinary people on the Colin plane to access the magic world, magic knowledge, magic schools, etc., are strictly blocked by mage nobles. Ordinary people live in a high-pressure environment where there is no hope of change, while mage aristocrats are intrigued all day long, indulging in the enjoyment of power.

The heroic spirits buried behind the DeWitt experimental site and the original DeWitt must have dissipated their blood and their hearts like ashes because of this. In the end, they find that their efforts are useless, and only time can change the status quo, and they have no time, and those who come after have time but do not want to change all this, which is undoubtedly very painful.

Wandering in a lifeless society, full of injustice, bullying and oppression is not a good experience, and it has even affected Ciri's own emotions. After a brief tour, he closed the door to check the temporal materials he had brought with him, and waited for Master DeWitt to return.

Ciri didn't have to wait long, and within a few days he received another notification from Master DeWitt, who Quinir brought to the returning Master DeWitt.

Standing in front of Ciri was the old Mage DeWitt, older than the image left in the Tower of Knowledge.

Mage DeWitt looked very thin overall, his loose white hair scattered over his shoulders, and his snow-white beard drooping down to his chest. The bridge of the nose is high, the wrinkles of the face are already old, and only the eyes that connect the heart are deep and bright, projecting wisdom and reason.

DeWitt was wearing a set of ordinary mage robes, and his smile was very amiable. As soon as he saw Ciri, he stretched out his right hand forward, and it turned out to be the most widely circulated handshake in the Colin plane.

Ciri also stretched out his right hand forward, and clasped it tightly with the other party's palm: "Hello Master DeWitt, I'm Ciri, an academic mage from the Colin plane, and it's a pleasure to meet you. It seems that you must have spent some time in our Colin Plane before you understand this handshake that is unique to the Colin Plane. ”

Libdevit motioned for Ciri to sit on the chair next to him, and then sat down next to him: "When I was younger, I spent a lot of time in the Nya continent on the Colin plane, and if I had stayed there at that time, I would still be an academic mage. ”

When DeWitt mentioned his youthful experience, there was still a trace of sadness in his eyes, but it was not revealed, it seemed that he had completely let go of his heart knot, but perhaps it was for this reason that he would soon disappear in time and space.

The continent of Niya is located in the central region of the Colin plane, where the competition is even more fierce, and it is much more difficult to become an academic mage there than in the current fringe region of the Nair continent. As a young foreigner, Devit was able to pass the academy mage assessment in the Niya Continent, and he must be amazingly talented.

After the two of them exchanged polite words, DeWitt began to ask about Ciri's basic situation: "Master Ciri, before teaching, I need to know what your foundation is in chronology, please briefly describe your learning progress in chronology. ”

Ciri nodded in response, then replied, "I've learned the basic runes most of the time, and I've learned the rune group most of the time. Now I can lay out some rune circles related to time, but I don't know how the magic circle works and how it works, except for time runes and rune groups, I don't know much about other things. ”

Master Hobert smiled and nodded after listening to Ciri's words. In fact, most mages come to him to learn the time rune and rune group of the time spell rune array, and generally as long as they learn these two things, they can smoothly arrange the most time rune array, and the goal of the vast majority of people is achieved. There are only a mages like Ciri who have already finished learning the runes and rune groups themselves, and have come to study.

Time runes and rune groups are as difficult as wordless books to learn on their own, so most mages want to come and learn with his help, once they learn these two, they can already cast the time spells created by their predecessors, and the rest of the content is not only cumbersome and profound, if they don't want to study the content of their own time science, it is almost useless, so the vast majority of people are also not interested.

Ciri also came to learn other temporal basics from him after learning about the time runes and rune groups, indicating that Ciri wanted to really learn about temporal science and make a difference in this area.
