Chapter 194: The Beginning of the Hunt (15)
According to Berg, when he was young, he had not yet been exposed to the profession of mage, and it was not until he was in his forties that he stumbled upon a meditation method, and then he has relied on it until now.
During this period, he wanted to obtain more resources and related knowledge, but he never succeeded, and it was completely impossible to join the academy.
Because his age is too old, the general academy only recruits teenage children as apprentices, because these people are more malleable, and it is basically impossible to exceed the age of twenty, not to mention that Berg is far beyond this age, and it is absolutely impossible to enter the old age stage at that time.
At that time, Berg actually reached the current level without any systematic guidance, almost just relying on his own exploration, with the help of extremely limited resources, and spent more than ten years.
As Berg said, in fact, his qualifications above the mage are quite good, and he does have the ability to impact the official mage.
However, at this time, he was over sixty years old, and even if he got enough resources, the chances of becoming an official mage were relatively low.
If Berg had gone to some academy or mage organization since he was a child, he would have been a full-fledged mage by now, but unfortunately he didn't have such a fate, and he didn't know that he had the talent of a mage until he was in his forties, and it was too late.
Aaron knew that Berg's chances were not great, and he didn't want to lie to him, so he said truthfully: "Actually, your talent in mages is okay, but now that you are too old, the chance of becoming a full-fledged mage is still very low, if you want to become a third-level apprentice, it is relatively easy, but it is really difficult to go further......"
"Master Aaron, even if there is little hope, I want to try. Please do it!" Berg knew that Aaron was telling the truth, but as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he was still unwilling to give up.
Seeing Berg say this, Aaron nodded and said, "Since you insist on this, then I won't persuade you." But one thing I have to make clear to you is that due to your age, if you fail to attack the official mage, there is a certain chance of dying as a result, and you have to weigh the risk of this. ”
Hearing this, Berg replied without hesitation: "I have lived to this age, and I don't have much time left, even if I will die because of this, I will admit it!"
Berg didn't let the risks last his way. Still very persistent.
Aaron agrees with his adventurous spirit: "If you are not afraid of losing your life because of this, then I will fulfill you, but you must answer me something first." ”
"Whatever you want to ask, just say it, but whatever I know, I will tell you the truth!" Berg nodded earnestly.
After a pause, Aaron said slowly, "I heard that you were more than thirty years ago. There was a very strange thing that happened to you, and you once got into it. I was arrested on suspicion of being a murderer, I don't know if I was wrong?"
Aaron told him what he had just learned from the news monger, and the man had mentioned such a thing at the time, but he knew very little.
Berg nodded when he heard this. admitted: "You're right, I did experience such an incident in my twenties. ”
After receiving Berg's affirmative answer, Aaron continued: "That's what I'm going to inquire about." I want you to tell me everything about this from beginning to end, the more detailed the better, it's very important, and I advise you not to lie, I have a way to confirm whether you are lying, and if you don't tell me the truth, then you won't talk about what you said before!"
Although Aaron said that he could determine whether he was lying, he actually only relied on the chip to analyze some physical details as the basis for judgment, although there was such an accuracy, it was not high, so that Berg could not lie as much as possible.
"Rest assured, Master Aaron, I'll tell you exactly what I want to do, but can you tell me why you want to know about it?" replied Berg.
Aaron shook his head, not wanting to say it: "You can tell me what you know, and you still don't want to know anything else." ”
Seeing that Aaron didn't plan to say anything, Berg honestly began to tell the story of more than thirty years ago: "At that time I was still young, more courageous, I liked to know some strange things, and I was very interested in it, and I had a few good friends at that time, all of whom had the same interest as me, and we studied these ...... together."
"Later, we secretly heard a strange rumor that someone in the city would occasionally disappear mysteriously. After a period of investigation, we found that this is true, and we also found a pattern, that is, every month, one or two people go missing, and in this case, the people in power in the city did not pay attention to it at all, and they were interested in investigating, so we went to investigate it ourselves......"
"After tracking for half a year, we found some clues, and a large part of those who disappeared were craftsmen who made mirrors, so we thought it might be related to mirrors, so in a short period of time, we went around looking for some special mirrors. ”
"At first, we didn't find anything else, until one day, my friends and I found a worn-out mirror and brought it back, and it was on that day that we walked into an old house, and I was sick at that time, so I fell asleep in it......"
"When I woke up, I found myself on a small road, and the old mirror was right next to me, and my friends didn't know where they had gone, and at first I thought it was their prank, deliberately teasing me. It wasn't until more than a month later that I didn't hear from them, and their families couldn't contact them, that I realized that they had disappeared like those who had mysteriously disappeared. ”
"In the days that followed, I tried to find a few of them, but there were no clues, and I suspected at first that it was the mirror's problem, but it didn't seem to be the problem, until I got a meditation method, I didn't pursue it again, and if you hadn't brought it up, I wouldn't have remembered these ......"
As Berg recounted the incident, he sighed from time to time, while Aaron listened quietly, keeping his mouth shut, while letting the chip record it all...... (To be continued......)
