Ciri replied with a courtesy: "Hello Master Quinir, thank you for your help, I may have to stay here for a while in the future, please take care of me." ”

The two exchanged pleasantries, and then Quinnir and Ciri left the interdimensional teleportation and set off forward.

The interdimensional teleportation circle should be within the DeWitt's sphere of influence, as Ciri and Quinir have encountered several patrolling mages along the way, and when Quinil passes by, they all perform a ritual that should be unique to the Vátila plane.

The strength of these constantly patrolling mage teams is not high, generally only at the level of intermediate and high-level mages, or the original mage robes and magic wands, it seems that there are not too many magic props on their bodies, and some have warriors around to protect them.

Although they are respectful in front of Quinir, once they leave, they revert to an aristocratic and arrogant nature.

Seeing that Ciri noticed the patrolling team, Quinir began to explain: "Master Ciri, the mage team you see was not actually formed by the order of Teacher DeWitt, but was organized by the people below. ”

"We haven't been connected to the outer planes for a long time, and you may be aware that the elemental activity of Vatila is not high. ”

"The Vatira Plane has always been ruled by nobles, and originally there were very few mages. It wasn't until other dimensional prospectors discovered it and connected it to the outside world that things changed. ”

"Teacher Devitt was discovered by a passing adventure mage by chance, and devoted himself to cultivating him as a successor to the mantle. Shizu also worked hard to win an opportunity for the teacher to test his personal future potential in the City of Perfection, and the teacher lived up to his trust and directly passed the test of the City of Perfection. ”

Later, the ancestor disappeared in an adventure, and the teacher relied entirely on himself to achieve what he is today. However, the teacher did not choose to practice in the City of the End or one of the six major plane forces, but returned to Valora, the birth plane, to develop this lower plane. ”

When speaking of this paragraph, Quinnir seems to have great admiration for his teacher, DeWitt. Indeed, as the old proverb goes, people always want to go to a better environment, just as water always rushes to a lower place.

It takes a lot of effort to get to a better environment, and it takes a lot of sacrifice to build a worse environment.

"Teacher DeWitt sacrificed some of his personal future and returned to Vatila to establish the current Earth Walker Mage Association, which means nourishing the Vatila plane like the earth and forging the way forward like a walker. ”

"Mr. DeWitt shared all his magic materials with other mages for free, and at the same time devoted a lot of precious time to teaching some juniors who were willing to learn from him. Before the arrival of Teacher DeWitt, the magical knowledge of the Vatira plane was very scarce, the ability of the magicians was also very low, and even the mages had been suppressed by the nobles. ”

"After the arrival of Master DeWitt, he gave the mages who had been hiding all day long rich in magical knowledge and gave them great power. Soon the aristocracy was disintegrated by the mages of the Earthwalker Association, and everyone wanted to become mages rather than nobles, and everything seemed to be going in the direction that the teacher had predicted. ”

"But soon the mages began to become different, and the mages who had been united by the pressure of the nobility began to conflict, although they were all small frictions, but the situation has been expanding. Mages who were originally keen on the study of spells began to struggle for power, and magic was only a means and way for them to compete for power. ”

"Spell knowledge is gradually being blocked, and some family-based mage groups are growing, and they have been hindering others from accessing spell knowledge. ”

At this point, Quinnir looked very sad, mixed with a little confusion.

"Teacher DeWitt was also furious, and even personally punished and eradicated some mage family groups that had gone too far. But Vatila's mages seem to have fallen into some kind of curse, the rulers are constantly changing, and the knowledge of magic is gradually isolated from the common people and ordinary mages, and even the powerful time mages like the teacher are powerless to change everything. ”

"When you contacted the teacher, did he have an old voice or did he seem younger?"

"Uh, it's true that listening to Master DeWitt's voice isn't as old as the image he left in the Tower of Knowledge?" Quinil's words made Ciri feel a little confused, and at the same time realized that something was wrong. Powerful mages generally do not change their age, especially time mages.

There was no image of Mage DeWitt talking to Ciri, and his voice at the time did not look like the white-bearded old mage recorded in the Tower of Knowledge, he looked too young.

Hearing Ciri's answer, Quinir's eyes added a little bitterness: "The teacher can't change the current situation of Master Vatira, he hopes that Vatira can become the second Colin plane, but he finds that except for the elimination of the noble class, the entire Vatira doesn't seem to have changed much. The aristocracy has been wiped out, and the mage is still doing aristocratic things, with the habits and temper of the nobility, practicing the aristocratic system, and becoming a kind of mage aristocracy. ”

"The teacher used to ask us for a while if we thought it was worth it for him to spend so much time and sacrifice himself to make Vatila look like this, but the teacher never listened to everyone's answers, and we didn't know the answers. ”

Finally, in a temporal experiment, the teacher once again fell into a contemplation of this kind of question. There was an accident in the experiment, there were no explosions, but half of the people on the Vatila plane didn't remember what they had done the day before, as if they hadn't lived yesterday, and the teacher's testing site disappeared completely, and the area became what it was when it wasn't built before. There was no damage, but it was changed to the original appearance before the test site was built, and even the location of the trees and flowers was exactly the same as everyone remembered, as if this place had never been built into a test site. ”

"The most terrible thing was that Mr. DeWitt got into an argument with a young man who appeared next to him. The young man had been reprimanding the teacher for wasting his time doing useless work, and wanted to go to the Colin plane for further study. ”

"What is terrifying is that the young man is exactly what Teacher Devit was when he first came to Vatira, and he is not an illusion at all, he has a physical body, he can cast all the spells of the teacher at that time, and he can also practice and practice. ”

At this point, Quinnir showed a strong fear of the unknown, and his eyes looked a little glazed, but he quickly collected his mood and resumed his conversation.

Mr. DeWitt cordoned off the area where the two of them were, and no one could approach it, and it wasn't until a few days later that he reappeared, exhausted and old. Mr. DeWitt told everyone that the young self was actually a time image that had been transferred here by accident in his experiment, and had been subdued by him, so that everyone should not worry. ”

"But what happened later made everyone realize that the truth is far from so simple!"
