"Can you still see the stars in the sky?" Siegel pointed to the top of his head and said to Evan, "If you can't see it, how do you get there?"

"I haven't thought that far yet. At the moment I am satisfied that the goblins are finished, that there will be no dangerous enemies popping up in the crystal wall passages, and that my kingdom will no longer be attacked by nuclear bombs. His Majesty grunted, his fingers stroking over the hilt of his sword at his waist. "The power of the goblins is truly terrifying, and a world can be completely destroyed by force. I had never thought of such a thing, and I thought that dragons were the strongest force in the world. ”

He looked at Siegel with a hint of gloom in his eyes: "Siegel, the mages continue to develop and improve, can their power eventually destroy the world like goblins?"

"Destroying the world like this, with a nuclear bomb?" Siegel shook his head, "That's too slow, it's too inefficient." Let's take the magic array in front of us as an example, banning the power of a rule. At present, deflagration and high temperature are banned, and if it changes and blocks the flow of air, everyone will be suffocated in a few minutes. ”

Evan's face changed, and he only felt that his hands and feet were cold. In the process of activating the magic array, he shook the world with the legendary spell and felt an almost endless amount of energy. His soul broke free from the shackles of his body and soared into the sky, overlooking thousands of living beings. It was like the feeling of God, a sense of omnipotence.

At that time, I was only excited and excited, but when I looked back, I was very afraid. All this power comes from the legendary circle of the Mage Guild, and has nothing to do with himself. If he were a different person, he would feel the same way as himself. As Siegel put it, what if the rules were changed differently?

"Your Majesty, please don't listen to Archmage Siegel alarmist. Leel paced his hands between his sleeves and slowly. "Banning rules is not that simple. Only the magic array is not enough, and it also needs the strength above the Sage level. Not all creatures' bodies can withstand the power of the rules, and if I stand in your place, the circle will be disintegrated when it is activated. There are only a few saints in the world, and none of them will try to destroy the world. This legendary circle is kept here by the Mage Guild and will never fall into the hands of a madman. So the world is safe. ”

Siegel looked at Riel, trying to see his inner thoughts in his eyes, and Riel had the same intentions. So the two archmages looked at each other with the same calm and waveless gaze, until Evan broke the silence.

"If I'm not mistaken, the two of you met for the first time on the Unsinkable Stoneboat. The two organizations that you represent are opposed to each other, which has had a very negative impact on the security and stability of the kingdom. Now that the goblin problem is basically solved, it's up to the two of you. Tell me, what do you think?"

Riele withdrew his gaze and bowed slightly to Evan. Then he said, "Siegel is the best of the young mages and has already achieved amazing things. The future will definitely be his, and I can only avoid the edge for the time being. Now that I'm concentrating on the association, I won't worry about the affairs of the school city in the future. If we don't hurry up and study, I'm afraid we will soon be surpassed. ”

"There's a way to dispel your worries, Master Liele. Siegel smiled and said, "It's not that difficult to regain your youth now, I only need a small piece of your flesh and blood to give you a youthful body." Three months to four months later. You are also a young mage. ”

"Cloning?" Riele shook his head, "I don't believe that this spell can really be as magical as you claim, violating the laws of life and transcending the boundaries of life and death. This is a very dangerous and irresponsible move. There must be a hidden danger in your spell that has not yet been revealed, and those who have been clones and resurrected face a serious threat. ”

"If your level is limited to drawing conclusions based on imagination, then you are really ashamed of your status as an archmage. I cordially invite you to join the cloning experiments, and find a way to overcome any hidden dangers. I will charge everyone else 440,000 gold coins, for you, Master Riele. I only received a symbolic gold coin. ”

Riele still shook his head, unmoved.

"I have shown kindness in the presence of the king. Siegel held out his right hand and shook hands. "Master Liele, what you want from me has never belonged to you. If you still have a little shame, you know that the whole thing started with a trick. I know very well that you won't stop, and I can't put my hopes in your back-down. If you want to find me, just let me come and don't drag anyone in. Since His Majesty the King said that the two of us should not affect the stability of the kingdom, then shake hands with me and go out to duel. ”

"Duels are a knight's etiquette, not a mage's habit. Riele looked down at Siegel's outstretched hand, paused for a moment and said, "But what you say has a point, we have to respect the will of His Majesty the King." ”

He reached over the old, withered, knuckle-protruding hand and shook it with Siegel. The surface of his skin is covered in a thin force field, so there is no actual contact. Siegel is the same, the membrane glove of the elemental polymer structure prevents him from touching Leel.

"One of your students followed me the other day and was arrested by me. Siegel pulled Riel in his direction a little and said with a smile, "He has no problem other than being eternally stagnant. I think you definitely want him back, so I'll give him back to you in a while. ”

"Then thank you Lord Marquis for taking care of you. Riele tried to withdraw his hand, but found that Siegel's fingers were clutching like pliers. He shook quietly, but was still forced to hold Siegel.

He smiled and silently recited the spell of the greasy spell, trying to make his hand slippery and then get out of it. However, Siegel summoned the elemental power to destroy, and the spell was dispelled before it could be completed.

"Interesting. Master Riele's fingers trembled slightly, emitting the power of lightning in an attempt to paralyze Siegel's fingers. However, as soon as the electric spark appeared, it was quickly guided away, and it entered the earth against Siegel's body, and it failed to touch the target at all.

Immediately after, Liele's hand shook rapidly, almost a hundred times a second. "What kind of spell is this, and what's going on in the inventor's head?" Siegel laughed, the look of abuse in his eyes.

Even though he was laughing, his hands didn't relax at all. The power of the earth and water elementals was mixed to create a viscous effect that could not be broken free no matter how much Riele trembled. An impatient look had already appeared on the old mage's face, what was the use of such a young man's trick, could it prove anything?

He glanced at Evan, and His Majesty the King sensed that something was wrong at this time, but he didn't seem to know that the two men were fighting with spells between the palms of their hands. He didn't want to play any longer, so he began muttering incantations.

Siegel didn't even listen to Riel's spell, it must have been a cover-up. According to Liele's spell casting level, it is not too difficult to say the spell of one spell in his mouth, but silently build a model of another spell. Sensing the flow of the qi element, and noticing the structure of several flashes of incantations, Siegel knew that the opportunity he had been waiting for had finally arrived.

In order to get rid of the sticky gum, Riele really cast a vaporized form. He concentrated the power of the spell below his wrist, trying to pull his hand out of Siegel's grasp in such a way. Even if Siegel crushed the gaseous hand with force, it could be reconstituted in the process of vaporizing the form, leaving no real wounds.

The moment Siegel grasped the spell and was about to take effect, his fingers loosened violently, and the power of the four elements converged on his fingertips, and then concentrated on Liele's little finger. The elemental aggregate cut off Riele's vaporization spell, turning the entire palm of his hand into gas, but the little finger remained its original form.

Siegel took advantage of the situation and grabbed his little finger in his hand. "I know all about Master Liele, thank you for your support of cloning. With this amputated finger, I'll finish culturing the clone as soon as possible. A twenty-four-year-old body can be completed in two and a half weeks. ”

"You!" Riele shook his head. "Siegel, I know you know you have some blood magic, but it's impossible to use that magic against me. Even if you have the support of the Myr Core, you can greatly increase the strength of your spells, but you have to remember that in magic, not much power is enough to solve all problems, and it is impossible to rely on brute force to defeat the rules. ”

"Blood magic, where did you think of it?" Siegel smiled and shook his head. "I've long suffered the loss of a blood mage, and I studied blood magic to prevent it, not to harm people. If I want to hurt you, I will cast a spell in front of you when you are awake, with a wand in your hand. ”

"Chivalry, huh?" Riele turned his right hand back into a physical one, holding his wand in his left hand at the severed finger. Bone, blood vessels, muscles, nerves, and epidermis grow in turn, and soon a little finger grows again.

"Regeneration?" Siegel asked curiously, placing Riele's finger in the pouch. "Why didn't I feel a trace of the energy fluctuation of the divine magic?"

"There's a lot of magic that you don't know, and you need a teacher to take you through it. Even if you're already an archmage, that's just an affirmation of your elemental control ability and spellcasting skills, not your knowledge, wisdom, and strength. The door of the association is always open to you, and you are welcome to come and learn at any time. ”

"What's the point of opening the door now?" Siegel waved his finger, "It's already at the stage of the archmage, and magic is all studied, not copied." I thank the Association for their help on behalf of the mages of the Federation, but for myself, let's keep it as it is. Although the cost of exchanging cloning is high, at least it is clearly marked and fair trade. ”

"I don't know what you once said, it's not accurate to do the thing of a 500,000 gold coin for the Mage Association. ”

"Want to start your adventure in the stars so soon?" Siegel looked at Evan before returning his gaze to Liele: "This matter is not negotiable, but it should not be a matter between the association and me, but a matter between His Majesty the King and me. Archmage Lear, before you give up, there will be ...... between me and you" Siegel paused for a moment, then said, "I can't talk about it. (To be continued.) )
