Chapter 207: Three Candidates
The mountains of Neflet are mostly terrainous, but the tallest building in the entire continent is not the highest peak of these mountain ranges, but the mapping station of the Stargate Council.
Alik, the leader of the Stargate Council, sat in a high-backed chair at the head of the survey station almost all the time.
From this angle, if you look up slightly, you can see the infinite starry sky, and if you lower your eyes slightly, you can look at the turbulent sea.
Alik is already the embodiment of thunder and lightning in the minds of Councillors of Stargate, and as a result, the council's mapping station is always a clear sky.
You can observe changes in the starry sky at any time.
Murrich, a young assistant who was not yet 100 years old, walked over with a book of materials.
He used to be a second-order wizard majoring in wood-attribute witchcraft, but since he came to the Stargate Council and became Akeley's assistant, he hadn't touched wood-attribute witchcraft books for more than ten years.
Now he is just over 100 years old, and he is also a fairly young existence in the Stargate Council, and he is also one of the recognized geniuses here.
It's just that the once high-spirited teenager is now full of gray hair, and only his face still looks like a young man.
However, his eyes suddenly disassociated during a stargazing, and the orbits protruded outward, like two telescopes, and the eyes inside also became completely transparent vitreous.
After the rescue, he didn't care about it, and said that it was more convenient for him to observe the starry sky and see more clearly.
"Speaker, Miss Lucy has sent back a message from the Borderlands. The Wind Demon Pell proposes that Thor be the next candidate for the position of a third-order wizard. Congressman Norton agreed. However, Councillor Norton also nominated Corey, another member of the Glow family, as one of the candidates. ”
Alik, who was looking up at the starry sky, turned his golden eyes to Murridge, "Thor? ”
"It's the first time I've heard that name."
"Looks like Gorsa has protected him well."
"Do you think Gorsa has been planning for a long time?" Murridge's eyes shrank back, and he looked down at the information in his hand, "Yes, a young boy majoring in dark attributes, ...... age 17 years old. Sure enough, it was a puppet that was single-handedly cultivated. ”
Murridge's fingers tapped on the book with a dull sound.
"Even if such a person has us to help him, he will not be able to push open the door in his body. This is a waste of resources! ”
Murridge looked at Thor's name on the paper, and wanted to put a big cross on it as if he were doing an experiment.
"Maybe." Alik wasn't as angry as Murrich, he was still calm and calm, like a starry sky above his head that had not changed for thousands of years.
"However, it is also very difficult for us to push open the door of the starry sky, and we are not 30% sure yet."
Murridge paused for a moment, and then said unwillingly: "How can he be compared to the study of the stargate." ”
Alik didn't seem to hear it, and still whispered: "Push open the door in the body, open the connection channel between the magic in the body and the magic outside the body; Push open the door of the starry sky and open the passage between this world and the other world...... If the third order fails to push the door, it will become a monster under the agitation of internal and external magic, and if we fail to push the door, ......"
Murridge also knew how difficult their research was, but he was long past the stage where he would be defeated by difficulties.
"That's just falling on the path of truth."
Alik smiled.
That's why he chose a young man like Murrich as his assistant.
Maybe Murridge's character and abilities aren't the best of all his assistants, but he never gives up.
Through Murridge, Alik remembers Gorsa.
The young man was also a guy who would never give up.
It's just that the research path he didn't give up was so shocking that even Alec thought he was crazy for a while.
But now that I think about it, it would be an unparalleled bravery to be able to walk down a path that everyone in the outside world thought would inevitably be polluted and go crazy.
"Then let Thor be a candidate as well." When Murridge saw Speaker Alik looking at the stars again, he knew that he was no longer interested in the third-order candidates in the Borderlands.
As long as the Speaker did not object, Murridge himself had no right to reject the proposal of a third-order wizard.
However, since both the Wind Demon and the Glow Family have put forward their own favorite candidates, then they, as another major force in the Stargate Council, naturally have the right to put forward a candidate.
Several names swirled in Murrich's mind, and finally, his eyes stretched out and he spat out a name.
"Speaker, why don't you let Luke participate in the selection as well?"
Speaker Alik bowed slightly, he didn't care much about this kind of thing.
Murridge smiled: "It just so happens that Thor, like Luke, is a wizard majoring in dark attributes, let them play fair." ”
After Murridge left, Alik continued to look up at the stars.
"Stargate, there has been a ......"
……
After seeing off Brando, Saul ushered in the Gaga drum that had not arrived for a long time.
Gaga was very enthusiastic this time, and gave Sol a lower price, which made Sol a little confused.
Rugaga stayed overnight to check on the contamination on his body.
Saul was pleased to find that the Gaga drum itself was almost uncontaminated.
After Saul cleaned up the puppet behind him that was responsible for filtering the contamination, he let Gaga Drum leave.
However, the popularity of the Soul Purifying Wizard Tower seems to be particularly strong lately, and not long after Gaga Drum left, the white mushroom once again released spores to warn.
Only this time he waited until all the spores in the air were gone, and Thor did not wait for the guests to appear on the shores of Lake Rhine.
"Lord Tower, shall I take a look?" Marsh still had a dinner knife in his hand, and he was cooking.
"I'd better go check it out."
There is no way, there are only a few people in the entire wizard tower who can cross the Rhine, and Marsh can't do it except for his luck.
Thor also did not want to instruct Byron, although the other party did not reject Thor's orders.
So, more than a year after the Wizard's Tower was built, Thor still had to go to greet the guests in person.
He whistled softly.
The pale yellow giant bird, which was grooming its feathers at the top of the tower, immediately flew down and stretched out four long, insect-like whiskers.
Thor grabbed one of the long whiskers, and was carried into the air by the sudden rise of the giant bird.
The giant bird flew fast, and almost in the blink of an eye, he crossed the Rhine Lake and landed next to the mushroom grove that had just been alerted.
While falling, Thor did not forget to put a layer of armor on himself, and at the same time released Herman in his body.
Herman's silver figure immediately turned into silver lightning and shuttled through the mushroom forest.
Soon, Herman rushed out of the mushroom grove, shocked and couldn't help but gloat at Saul, "It's Kismet!" Master, he was very badly injured and fainted in the mushroom forest! ”
Thor was not as happy as Herman when he heard the news.
His serious face made Herman smile as well.
Thor rushed into the mushroom forest, and sure enough, under a huge mushroom on the periphery, he relied on a man who was so thin that he was almost a skeleton.
His breath was weak, and his mental power fluctuated negligibly.
If it weren't for the slightly curly silver medium-length hair, it would be really hard to recognize Kismet from the outside.
Thor landed in front of Kismet, and Kismet, who was still unconscious, suddenly opened his eyes and smiled weakly at Thor .
"Still alive?"
"I've come to my master for help."
"Who hurt you?"
"Sky City Lord Ophelia." Kismet pursed his lips, revealing a look of complete grievance, "In order to kill Clark completely and help the master clean up the stumbling blocks on the road to promotion, brother, I also risked my life!" ”
