Chapter 1: Dragons and Magic

Next Chapter

Merlin, who had just crossed over, was stunned.

He was originally an ordinary office worker, with no car, no house, and no parents.

I have been working hard for more than ten years by dropping out of high school, and I just paid a down payment last month and bought a house in a third-tier city.

was about to be angry, create performance for the company, and earn money for the boss to drive a BMW, who knows, he died suddenly on the night of overtime......

But not completely dead, he crossed!

Merlin fell to the ground, and the air was filled with all sorts of stenchs.

I didn't have time to regurgitate, I was kicked a few times, and I forcibly held back the urge to vomit, and he was stunned for a while, and he was completely stunned.

More than ten years of memories came flooding back, and Merlin's brain seemed to be stuffed into a juicer and stirred wildly.

The whole person lost consciousness instantly, and could only rely on his physical memory to let out a few screams from time to time.

Seeing that he was about to die, a few thugs quickly touched Merlin's pocket, took the money in the bag and ran away.

Merlin eased up, but didn't dare to squeak, and said in his heart that he should not bully the young man to be poor, and kept secretly looking at the little gangsters, trying hard to remember their appearance, until they were far away, he didn't dare to get up slowly.

After sitting on the ground for half an hour, getting acquainted with the new body, accepting the new memories, and gasping!

……

This is the world of Norland, a world full of magic, a world of dragons, monsters, and gods!

Legend has it that the world of Norland was originally ruled by dragons and monsters, and the gods came down from the sky to spread his knowledge, and the mage was born!

Unwilling to be enslaved by the dragon, the human mages went to war with the dragon, built towers to protect the city, and after a long war, the humans took control of the land, and the dragon disappeared into the boundless ocean......

This is a historical legend that every Norlander is familiar with.

Like him, former Merlin was an orphan, and since the death of his adoptive parents, he has been living a roadside life of picking up rags in the Rhine, the richest city on the Ivory Peninsula.

Three days earlier, he had heard others discussing the lucrative way of going out outside the city to collect the belongings of people who had died on expeditions, and he went along.

As a result, he accidentally broke away from the team and went deep into the dense forest, where he found a broken wooden house.

He waited for a long time and there was no one, and when he looked through the door wall, he thought it was an abandoned house, and after thinking about it, he moved directly to the wooden house.

And when I moved today, I found a few first-order magic crystals in my new home, so I immediately returned to the city and exchanged them for coins, and I just walked out of the Chamber of Commerce not far away, and I was dragged into the alley by these little thugs to fight, and then, there was no former Merlin.

got up and patted the clothes on his body that seemed to be sewn up with rags, looked like the arms and thighs of twelve or thirteen years old, looked at the various scars on his body that were visible to the naked eye, blue and purple, and secretly thought that he must find an opportunity to take revenge in the future.

I wanted to buy some medicine for treatment, but I remembered that the money seemed to be robbed, so I simply went home to see what I could sell and then find a way.

Merlin hadn't looked closely at what was in the house, but he only glanced at it, and vaguely remembered that there were two bookshelves, crawling with cobwebs, and a large pile of empty bottles and cans, hoping to sell for some money.

Following the path in his memory, Merlin limped towards the outside of the city, his eyes looking at his surroundings from time to time, thinking about life.

This is the North Wilderness Street, the poorest and most depraved place in the whole of the Rhine, with houses made of stone bricks and wood, one after another, neatly arranged, inhabited by commoners, traders, scavengers, and passing adventurers.

The former Merlin once wanted to have a room of his own on Beihuang Street, the ideal is very plump, but the reality is very skinny~

Out of the street is the North Wilderness Jungle, which is called the "Jungle Outside the City" by the scavengers

To the north of the dense forest outside the city is the "Sapphire Forest", which is known as an extraordinary holy place, with countless magical herbs, countless magical ores, indescribable magical beasts, and a legend that there is a giant dragon inside!

Countless bounty hunters, mages, magic swordsmen, magic archers, etc., in the Rhine City, have entered one after another, hoping to become dragon slayers and reap huge fortunes, but they have not been able to rise at all.

Perhaps because of the protection of the Mage Tower, the beasts of the Sapphire Forest have never set foot in the dense forests outside the city of Rhine.

The white tower in the center of the city attracts attention all the time, it is the only mage tower in the Rhine, and it is said that even the dragon cannot break the magic shield of the Rhine Tower.

And mage towers like the Rhine Tower are countless on the Norland continent, like stars dotted in the night sky, protecting humans from demonic beasts.

Look around at the buildings that look like Game of Thrones King's Landing, with feces everywhere on the road, and numb beggars who don't dare to look at people head-on.

Bounty hunters in leather armor and swords discuss with their companions where to hunt, and the sound of crisp laughter can be heard from the whistling carriages.

Merlin took a deep breath, and the confusion and fear caused by the crossing dissipated after being beaten

Orphaned since childhood, he quickly adapted, but from today onwards he will be away from modern life.

He vowed to become a transcendent in this world, so that he could live and survive in this world!

He had no choice but to think about recuperating before making plans. The chalet is about 2 kilometers away from the path to the Sapphire Forest, and a few hundred meters from the house is a cliff with a view of the Endless Sea and the Rhine.

After walking for an hour, Merlin returned to the rotten wooden house, pushed open the rotten wooden door, and looked at the scene in the wooden house, with a vague suspicion in his heart.

It could be a house abandoned by the transcendental!

Because normal people don't think of living in the depths of the forest, they are either transcendental, hunters, and possibly mages!

This world is not only mages, the former Merlin has a friend David Hawley who used to scavenge together, and was selected by a bounty hunter to be a magic swordsman apprentice, and it is said that he is now an eighth-level magic swordsman apprentice, and he will soon be promoted to a magic swordsman!

He thought that when his injury was healed, he would go to the Rhine Tower to try if he could become a mage apprentice, and if not, he would find a way to join David and see if he could become a magic swordsman.

Merlin entered the house and hurried towards the bookshelf, and if he wanted to know who left this room behind, and if he was a transcendent person, the easiest way was to see if there were any books on his bookshelf.

"The former Merlin is really a young man, there is no treasure to use, and he just wants to make money" He bet right, this is really a house abandoned by an extraordinary person, and it is also the mage he wants to be the most!

""Basic Magical Herb Knowledge", "Basic Spell Construction", "Norland Map", "Basic Meditation", "Potions Alchemy" have dug up treasures!" Merlin slapped his thigh in excitement.

"Hiss, pain, pain, pain, I forgot that the wound on my body is not healed, hiss" He grinned in pain and gasped.

He took the bread left by Merlin in his hand and stuffed it in his mouth, while holding the "Potions Alchemy" and studying it carefully, the primary goal at present must be to heal the wound first, and only after the injury can he devote himself to studying the mystery of magic.

"Simple healing potion crafting: Mash the Sun Grass with Moon Water, and add a drop of water attribute liquefaction magic...... Hell, if you want magic, don't you have any potions that ordinary people can do? ”

He was a little speechless, there were more than a dozen bottles of potions in the whole book, and the auxiliary materials were either magic power or magic crystals, if he had magic power, he would directly come to a healing technique.

"No matter, I'll just practice magic first, and when I learn magic, I'll have a healing technique, it's simple" He gritted his teeth, regardless of the bruises and purple wounds on his body, and meditated directly!

"Basic Meditation" is only a few pages about meditation, and the rest are stories about people who are on the path of magic for the first time.

For example, there was a man named Pedro Valente who felt his spirit being drawn to a certain place during his first meditation.

There are all kinds of magical fruits in that place, the magic condenses into a liquid and turns into a stream, the dragon soars in the sky, the monster lives in harmony with humans, and so on.

Everything was so harmonious that he called it the Garden of Eden, and he spent his life searching for it.

There are also people who go to places full of all kinds of disasters, countless volcanoes and magma, the air is full of sulfur, all animals and plants carry flames, and after returning, they have been dealing with the flame element for almost their whole lives......

And the author Miklos speculates that this may be related to everyone's elemental affinity, which is strong, which may cause some kind of illusion similar to the effect of magic with elemental sympathy.

Merlin watched it with relish, which was as bizarre as reading a novel.

After familiarizing himself with the process, he adjusted his mindset and next, the first leg of his magical journey, meditation!
