There are a lot of things in the back, Levi looked at them roughly, they were all personal belongings and the like, and it seemed that this exploration technique was the most thorough when it was used on himself.
"The solidification probe is clear, it is the skill that can get information by focusing on the creature, and the strategic spell is also clear, it is the skill that can release a burst fireball, and my current mana is 0 points, it seems that the fireball technique just consumed all my mana. But what kind of ability does this class have to manifest?"
Levi muttered as he said loudly, "Use, the class is manifested!"
"Hey, hey, little one, your last name is too impatient. If you want to use this skill, you need to enter the heart of the castle to recruit it. The old voice in my head reappeared.
"Where's the heart of the castle?
"Ah, really, I haven't told you this yet, it's not good to remember your last name when you're old. Little one, the heart of the castle is in your chest, all you have to do is say silently: enter the heart of the castle. ”
Levi's mood was subtly excited, and he took a deep breath and said silently, "Enter the heart of the castle!"
The view distorted, then blurred, and then the whole world went dark. The darkness was so deep that there was a feeling of vertigo falling.
Levi screamed, so loud that he felt ashamed of himself, and then his eyes lit up, and his vision returned to normal.
For a moment, Levi held his breath, and in front of his eyes, a picture of a beautiful scenery like heaven unfolded.
This is a very wonderful world, although there is no sign of the sun in the sky, there is a brilliant sunshine, a few white clouds gathered into clouds, floating comfortably in the air. Beneath your feet is a soft, dense meadow where fine alfalfa grass grows with unknown weeds and exudes vitality. As far as the eye can see, there are rolling hills and mountains in the distance, and the highest peaks are dotted with snow, which looks peaceful and holy.
Levi was completely mesmerized by the sight, which, if six months ago, could have been seen occasionally, is now untouchable. Since the beginning of the demon invasion, a dense strange mist has surrounded Viscount Lane, completely cutting off the Viscount's path to other places, and even the sun in the sky is blocked by this dense fog, which can only transmit a faint light.
In the dense fog, even if you have good skills, you can't compete with the demons who can see through the thick fog, and some adventurers who are unwilling to be besieged in the viscount have proved this with their lives and blood. Among the adventurers who finally disappeared in the mist, there are even people who have better combat abilities than regular knights.
Levi, with tears in his eyes, knelt down in the bright sun, his nose lingered with the fragrance of grass, at this moment, as if the disaster of the demon race had left this land, and the warm feeling made him reluctant to open his eyes for a long time.
"Little one, the view here is not bad, right?"
The old voice behind him woke Levi from his fantasy, and he hurriedly turned around and raised his blurred teary eyes. In front of him, there stood an old man with a long beard who looked very old, his hair and beard were snow-white, and his face was covered with deep wrinkles, but from his eyes was as sharp as a falcon.
The old man was dressed in a crimson robe, and on his head was wearing a strangely styled pointed hat, and both the robe and the surface of the hat were flashing in the sunlight with changing magic runes. A trace of inexplicable excitement trembled in Levi's heart, in his eyes, this old man must be a powerful magician.
"Are you a magician, old sir?"
The old man's two white eyebrows twitched, and he said with some reluctance: "Magician, oh, yes, I can indeed be called a magician, but I would prefer you to call me a great alchemy master." ”
"Are you Mr. Dish Friedrich?" Levi's voice trembled slightly, not because he was afraid of anything, but because an excited and excited feeling dominated Levi's body.
A magician, and it seemed to be of a very high level, stood right in front of him. For the young midshipman, this is indeed something to be excited and excited about.
Levi had also seen the existence of magicians in the Viscount's Castle, but each of them was a high-ranking person, not to mention Levi, even the knights of Ston were not qualified to talk to them on an equal footing. What's more, the magician in front of him, both in appearance and demeanor, left Viscount Lane's magician advisor far behind.
Maybe it's a great magician.
"Great magician, can I see that this is your slander against me? Little fellow, it seems that you don't know what a great rank the alchemy master is, let's put it this way, this world was created by me with alchemy, now do you understand?" said the old magician as if he could see through Levi's thoughts, and swiped his hands towards this piece of heaven and earth, full of pride.
Levi nodded, he didn't quite understand what was going on, but he already believed the old magician's words in his heart. When he was driven out of the castle, Levi felt that he would have broken down if he hadn't had the experience in his dreams. Without the protection of the Viscount's Castle, Levi, who only has the ability of a level 2 warrior, will find it difficult to spend even one night in the wilderness.
Whether it was a beast in the wilderness or a wandering demon, it was not an enemy that Levi could deal with.
As for the Black River outpost on the northern border that Viscount Ryan asked him to report to, he had already cut off contact with Viscount Castle six months ago, when the demon clan had just appeared. Levi didn't expect the sentinels there to hold out until now, even if the Viscount Castle was guarded by knights and many soldiers, how long would a dozen ordinary sentinels be able to hold out?
From the very beginning, Levi didn't think of going to the Black River outpost, and instead of going to a place that was bound to be occupied by demons, it was better to go deep into the dense fog area and try his luck if he didn't know if he could touch it. The experience in the dream made Levi's mind completely no longer look like an apprentice squire with little education, but as meticulous as a seasoned nobleman.
"Little one, if you want to be in a daze, there is time after leaving here. Based on your current physical fitness, you can still maintain the Heart of the Castle expansion mode for 520 seconds today, and every second of our conversation is precious. The old magician coughed, interrupting Levi's already scattered thoughts.
"What? Can't I stay here forever?" Levi's face changed color slightly, and although he had only been in this peaceful world for a few minutes, he already had a sense of attachment to this place.
"Maybe you can in the future, but right now your physical fitness can't maintain the Heart of the Castle expansion mode indefinitely, and it is expected that after 500 seconds, the expansion mode will be forced to close, and you will be teleported out of here and appear in the place where you just entered the Heart of the Castle. The old magician said, a look of amusement flashing across his face.
The radiance on Levi's face vanished, and as soon as he entered this beautiful space, he was already fascinated by the air and green space. "It would be nice to live here. This thought had been lingering in his mind, and Levi was a child of a very ordinary farming family before he was taken in by the knights of Ston, and he was no stranger to the work of the farm. Since the land here can make the grass grow so lushly, it must be very fertile enough to grow crops and vegetables, and during this period of demon invasion, being able to farm with peace of mind has become an unattainable dream in the hearts of many people.
However, Levi's dream was ruthlessly rejected by the old magician's words when it first emerged.
"Then what can I do?" said Levi, who had just been dispelled from his dream, and even though he had memories of two worlds, he was a little depressed.
The old magician stretched out his left hand and pointed to his side, and a few small silver dots of light sprinkled from his fingers, and after falling to the ground, the light points quickly expanded, and a few seconds later, in front of the stunned Levi, two silver high-backed chairs of the same style had already appeared.
Seeing Levi's gaze mixed with adoration and disbelief, the old magician smiled with satisfaction, then he sat down on one of the chairs, pointed to the other and said, "Little one, sit as you like, it's not good to have an old man standing and talking to you." ”
Levi sat in another chair in a daze, the feeling coming from under his ass was soft and hard, like the finest calf leather, and a sense of unreality made him feel like he was in a dream.
"Little one, I see that you don't know much about magicians, and now we have some time, so let me give you a brief explanation. The old magician stroked his long white beard and said with a tone of pride that was not unpleasant.
Levi nodded quickly and sat respectfully in his chair to listen. The power and mystery of the profession of magician deeply attracted the young man, and it is understandable that Levi was excited to get an old magician who looked extraordinary to explain these things to him.
"A lot of people think that magicians are a profession, but that's not really reasonable. There are many schools of so-called magicians, such as elemental mages, prophetic mages, necromancers, summoning mages, etc., and the gap between each school is not much smaller than the gap between a knight and a thief. And the most powerful of all the schools of magicians is undoubtedly our alchemist. Because among the alchemists, I, who have been recognized as the most powerful alchemy master of all time, is enough to surpass all the genres!" The old magician's last voice became excited, and a faint red light rose on his wrinkled face.
Seeing the look in Levi's eyes full of admiration, the old magician's body and mind became happy.
There was still a trace of doubt in Levi's heart about the most powerful alchemy master in history, but the mere fact that this old man was a magician was enough to make the trainee squire feel extremely happy.
"This world is the culmination of my highest alchemical achievement, a real half-plane, which I have named the Heart of the Castle. And you, little one, are the new lord of the heart of this castle!"
The old magician's next words made Levi feel breathing arrest, his eyes widened, and his hands pressed against his chest, because the moment the old magician said this, he felt the blood boiling all over his body, and if he didn't do this, he would even wonder if he would suffocate to death from ecstasy!
