You know, the New Delhi Empire today has completely banned dark magic. How dare ordinary people go against this?

So even if someone really found the vein of the Dark Demon Stone, he could only report it to the Empire, and he didn't dare to dig it privately.

Because of this, it is impossible to buy dark philosopher's stones in the normal market, and only in the Black City can such a rare thing exist.

I have to say that the third benefit that Alice said really made Ace's heart move. As a dark mage, Ace has always had a hard time practicing magic. In the future, the power increase must also use the Dark Magic Stone.

Seeing Ace's hesitation, Alice continued, "Not only that, but as long as you promise to join our Thorn Rose, I can guide you to learn dark magic. ”

Ace was naturally very happy. He hopes to find someone who can help him continue to learn dark magic. Now that Alice is willing, he is naturally willing.

"I'm too bad right now. Even if I join the Thorn Rose, it won't help. "Ace obviously doesn't have confidence in his own strength.

But Alice said, "You have such a strong spiritual power, you will definitely become a powerful dark mage in the future."

What's more, now you can also learn the art of blacksmithing with the master Stark, which is a huge advantage in itself.

You know, our Thorn Rose has a large population and needs to consume a lot of weapons and equipment, so you will definitely be able to help a lot in the future. ”

Hearing Alice's words, Ace finally nodded, and thought for a long time before agreeing: "Okay, I can only say that I can help you as much as I can." ”

Seeing that Ace finally agrees to join Thorn Rose, Alice is ecstatic.

Because she had tested Ace's psychic powers before. The average dark mage can only see a bright star, while a few gifted people can see a moon and a half or a full moon.

It's a once-in-a-century genius, but what about Ace? He actually saw the whole starry sky! Full moon and starry sky? There's even a whole ocean, which is simply an unprecedented talent.

Alice had to admire this mental strength.

You know, psychic power is extremely important for any magician. Because the stronger the mental power, the faster the magician enters the meditation state to recover his magic, the faster the magic level increases, and the shorter the cast time.

Imagine that an ordinary dark mage in meditation can only absorb the dark power of one star. But when Ace enters meditation, he can absorb the power of the entire starry sky and the ocean. The gap between the two is really different and is not at the same level at all.

However, all magicians are extremely vulnerable in a meditative state because they are unable to feel everything outside and immerse themselves wholeheartedly in a meditative state.

This is also the most fatal weakness of magicians. When fighting a mage, some soldiers will try their best to use up the magic in the mage's body and then give them a fatal blow when the mage is unable to cast it.

In addition to practicing magic proficiency, magicians should also improve their magic skills through meditation. Magicians with stronger mental powers will naturally improve their level faster.

Therefore, even though Ace is not strong at the moment, he is still very young, he is only a 13-year-old boy. His potential is limitless.

In the future, he will definitely make the Thorn Rose famous throughout the New Delhi Empire, and even the entire Mandala Continent.

Alice is very excited and looking forward to this day. This time it was a real asset to accidentally discover that Ace was an unparalleled genius.

"Now that you've promised to join the Thorn Rose, there's still some necessary information you need to know."

After saying that, Alice walked to the front of the map, pointed to the dozens of red markers on the map, and said, "The red dots of these markers are the strongholds established by our Thorn Rose in the New Delhi Empire.

When Thorn Rose was founded, we operated primarily around the Imperial Capital, with only one stronghold like the Wilderness Tavern. But now, the entire New Delhi empire has spread over our strongholds, and there are currently 77 of them. ”

Looking at these dense red dots, Ace was secretly surprised. He didn't expect the scale of the Thorn Rose to be so large, basically infiltrating the entire New Delhi Empire.

"In the future, if you run into trouble anywhere in the empire, you can go to these strongholds and ask your companions for help.

Once you join Thorn Rose, you are a part of our Thorn Rose. Alice said, and then he held out his hand to Ace solemnly.

Although Ace was a little surprised, he also held out his hand.

Alice clasped Ace's palm, and then drew a circle with her thumb on the back of Ace's hand: "Remember, this is the code for our Thorn Rose."

Ordinary people shaking hands will not have such inadvertent small movements. As long as the person who shakes your hand makes such a gesture, he should be our Thorn Rose's man. Remember? ”

Ace nodded, "Okay, remember. ”

Alice continued, "The last time I saw you at Stark's house, I didn't help you test your mage skills because I was in too hasty. Since you're at the Wilderness Tavern today, I'm going to test it out for you. ”

With that, he took out four rectangular pieces of paper from the low cabinet next to him, each with a spell written on it. Then he took out a few dark magic stones of different specifications.

The moment he saw the Dark Magic Stone, Ace knew in his heart that what Alice had just said was true, and that Thornrose actually had access to the Dark Magic Stone.

"These are dark magic from level one to level four. We use the simplest 'collecting magic', which is to extract the dark magic from these Philosopher's Stones and convert it into our own use. Alice said, then handed the first piece of paper and a small dark magic stone to Ace.

"Let's start by collecting magic at the first level. The magic is simple. With understanding, you should be able to remember it right away. ”

After saying that, Alice looked at Ace expectantly. He was curious to know what level of magician Ace was now.

Ace took a deep breath, then glanced at the piece of paper, and soon he recited the incantation, and then concentrated all his spiritual power on the small dark magic stone.

As soon as the spell ended, the dark element in the Philosopher's Stone quickly flew out, and after spinning around Ace, it penetrated into his body.

Ace only felt a warm current flowing through his body, which made people feel very comfortable.

Obviously, Ace had at least reached the strength of a first-level magician.

Then the second and third stages passed without incident.

It wasn't until the fourth level that Ace finished reading the spell and felt weak and suddenly collapsed on the table. Now he can't seem to complete the casting of level 4 magic.

Seeing Ace's eyes a little disappointed, Alice comforted: "It's already good, you completely figured it out by yourself." After only two months of study, you become a Level 3 Dark Mage, which is amazing. It takes four to five years for the average person to become a Level 3 Dark Mage, but it only took you two months, which is terrifying. ”

Magicians of the first, second, and third levels are junior magicians, fourth, fifth, and sixth magicians are intermediate magicians, and seventh, eighth, and ninth magicians are advanced magicians. In other words, although Ace is still a junior magician, as long as he is promoted to a fourth-level magician, he is an intermediate magician.

Once you become an intermediate magician, you will become a little famous. After all, more than half of the magicians can only stay at the beginner level for the rest of their lives.
