Chapter 586: Sitting
Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of the starting point, and the day with the most benefits. In addition to the gift bag and school bag, this time's "515 Red Envelope Flip" must be seen, how can there be a reason not to grab the red envelope, set the alarm clock high~
There were a lot of books piled up in the room, all of which were related to magic. Siegel took a quick look at everything from spell analysis, circle knowledge, alchemy potion recipes, and magic item making guides, and the only thing missing was various knowledge books. Maybe it's because they don't want everyone to have their identities revealed by their own historical and dimensional knowledge, and there is nothing to be found in this regard.
The inside of the room is much larger than the outside, with small round windows in all directions that allow sunlight to shine in and illuminate the room. It is obviously unreasonable to be able to see the sun from any window. Either this room has a spell applied that can affect the rules of the space, or it is a manifestation of the power of the kingdom of God.
It's good to have light in places like living rooms and dens, but magic labs generally need to be shielded from light. The sun itself contains energy, and gods like the Lord of the Dawn contain their power in the sun, which can affect some magical experiments. In particular, there are some experiments that need to observe what kind of phenomena are produced in the process, whether there will be a amount of light, and the presence of sunlight will also interfere with such experiments.
Other than that, everything about this accommodation is satisfying to Siegel.
The laboratory is full of equipment and materials, and as soon as it is taken off the shelves, new ones will be replenished, and it seems that there is an inexhaustible supply here. Siegel summons the god of lights and asks what kind of materials need to be exchanged for points.
"Anything alive, such as a live ant and a live horse, is 1 point. "Then there are materials made of living creatures, such as the glands of a flashing dog or the stomach pouch of a golden dragon studded with precious stones." These things are very valuable. The points consumed range from one hundred to ten thousand. ”
"Where can I get the High Magic Scroll?" Siegel was particularly concerned about the question, "Can I take these things out?"
"These points can be redeemed. If you're the winner, it's all yours, and it doesn't matter if you take it out or not. The lamp god's words caught Siegel's attention: "If you fail, if everyone else fails, then only the skills you have learned can be taken out." ”
According to the words of the lamp god, the result of winning here is to obtain the magic priesthood. Judging from the information I got before. There are three aspects of divine fire: magic, knowledge, and prophecy. The entire Academy of Magic requires hiding the true identity and shielding the mutual detection of prophetic spells, which happens to be the ability of the prophetic priesthood, and the process of learning spells is in line with the realm of magic and knowledge. From this, it is very likely that Liel will not be able to control what is happening here, or not completely.
Chanem once said that the power of the gods may decline, and the divine fire can be extinguished, but the priesthood will not disappear. Priesthood is the concept of crystal wall formation. What is determined from the beginning of the birth of a world will only perish in the storm of destruction. Take the god of murder as an example: if there is no murder priesthood, then there is no way to end life except for disease and natural death. Not only does that mean that there can be no war, but even hunting. Such worlds are not impossible, but they are all very isolated and cannot give birth to intelligent beings.
Only think about life and death, and try to change and escape death. It is the spark of wisdom that can be ignited.
In the same way, once the priesthood exists. It can't be vacant for a long time, otherwise there will be a disaster. Since the concepts are not independent, the priesthood itself is not perfect, and there are errors that they cannot resolve on their own. The priesthood that no one manages is like a ship that has lost its sailors, and although it can continue to float on the water, it will eventually be damaged by the loss of repairs.
Moreover. The priesthood also merges with each other, and those that are unmanaged are the most dangerous. The elven god has been using "art" to cover up his coveting of the "magical" priesthood, and the so-called elven art research institute was established according to this strategy.
Siegel had also heard of economic warfare, using the economy as a weapon to defeat the other side. Although no one has practiced this tactic yet, it is difficult to say that this is not the god of war to the god of business. Or the fusion of the god of business to the god of war.
The war between gods and gods is the war between the kingdom of God and the rules, and it is also the mutual integration of the priesthood and the confrontation of the power of the divine fire. Chanem told Siegel that the relationship between the will of the gods and the divine fire and the priesthood was not an absolute stable relationship, and that the divine fire, which represented power, could be transferred, which was also the basis for the cooperation between the two of them. When the will of the gods is lost, Shenhuo will be responsible for finding a "partner" for the priesthood, so it makes sense that this magic academy will appear in the kingdom of the gods.
Chanem knew this, and Liel must know better. Chanem is nothing more than a sage of the god of murder, and Liele is once the god of magic, knowledge, and prophecy, and if he sees it, he can leave Chanem far behind. When he gave up the Divine Fire and the Divine Priesthood, if he hadn't thought about it, or foreseen the current situation, this possibility would almost never exist. Therefore, in the Academy of Magic, there must be a backhand left by Riele to prevent anyone from successfully obtaining the magic priesthood.
The gods are greedy, and the gods who are able to give up their power must be even more greedy. Liele will not sit idly by and watch the magic power be taken away, perhaps he plans to return to the throne after studying the secret of the power of the dice. In other words, there must be some hidden way in the magic academy to ensure that Liele achieves his wishes.
Of course, if Riele doesn't set up a backhand, it means that anyone can compete, and that's a situation that Siegel can accept.
The sun soon moved into the afternoon and could be seen from every window. The lamp god is not responsible for reminding the class time, but only tells the answer when asked. "All the courses are on the ground floor of the middle tower. The lamp god replied, "On the shelf to the right of the doorway there is a blank magic book that can be used to take notes. ”
Siegel never formally attended classes, and his basic knowledge was obtained from the apprenticeship salon and librarianship, and some of his questions were answered by the trainee mage's explanations. The only formal transmission of knowledge came from Ph.D. Faranis, a five-day, five-night one-on-one session. This is the first time that a class like this has been conducted in the afternoon.
Nine people were assigned nine tables, forming a semi-circular arc around the podium. The classroom was lit with an inextinguishable flame and a dance light above their heads, and the entire classroom was brightly lit. When Siegel arrived, there was only one female elf mage before him. She picked the middle seat and looked at the white-bearded Siegel with curiosity.
"I know your name is Oroin Kurunaire, and I spent ten points to know it from the god of lights. "The female elf speaks in dragon language, but her elven accent is very strong, causing the dragon language to become a little weird. "Do you want to know my name? You're having negative points right now, so I'll save them for you." My name is Anastrina Meliane. You can call me Anna, every pronunciation is very long, a waste of time. ”
"In Elven language, your dragon language is too awkward. Siegel switched to Elvish. The basis of his Elvish language was learned from sea ship passengers, and the accent was very messy, the habits of different elven clans were mixed together, and it was also reprocessed by human travelers, and it was impossible to tell the origin. However, his grammar was absolutely correct after being trained by Master Leah, so Elf Anna was just stunned for a moment. I also switched to Elvish.
Siegel summons the god of lights and asks about spending points to inquire about his classmates. Sure enough, the name of the inquiry is ten points, the race is thirty points, and the time and place of origin are as high as five hundred. "I know your name out of pure curiosity, and you have good skills and magical abilities, otherwise how could you get rid of the gnomes so quickly?"
"Thanks for the compliment, I'm just defending myself. Siegel remembered that the female elf had just said that she was negative. That said, she asked about the rules for the Lamp God's offense and counterattack. "What else do you know about this?"
The elf smiled, her eyes crooked like crescent moons. Eyelashes shook with a smile. "It seems that you are here to become the master of the magic tower, then I have to be careful with you, only people like you will be especially concerned about the situation of others. I just want to study hard and learn more before I get cleared. Winner takes all, but ......"
Before she could finish her sentence, another person walked in. A strong orc looks like a warrior no matter how he looks. But he still has rune tattoos full of magical aura. The orc glanced at the female elf, then at Siegel, and snorted. He found the seat on the very edge, slammed his notebook on the table, and sat down.
The elf shrugged. Spread his hands and said, "The news you want to know needs to spend points, I can't give it to you for free, let alone let that orc hear it." He's not easy to mess with, he's already cleaned out three guys, so you'd better be careful. ”
What does that mean? Siegel is convinced that he killed the gnome in battle, but soon the gnome is reshaped and reappears in front of everyone. In this case, how can the person be cleared out?
This question is worth fifty points, and the lamp god does not accept bargaining at all. Siegel was already minus twenty points, and he didn't want to add any more to it for a while. So he held back his curiosity and didn't look into the issue for the time being.
The most marginal position on both sides will only have one neighbor on one side, which is relatively safe. With this thought in mind, Siegel occupied the top seat on the other side. The orc snorted, a contemptuous sneer in his nasal voice. Elf Anna also smiled and shook her head, as if to imply that the seat was bad.
Siegel gestured to the seat next to him, looking at the elf with an inquiring eye. Anna nodded quietly and made a "yes" gesture with her body covered. Since he couldn't see the difference between the seats now, whether it was really good or bad, the odds were exactly the same, so why didn't he listen to the advice? So he changed the seat, moved one to the side, and began to study it.
The magic tower is only 20 meters in diameter from the outside, but it is about 50 meters from the inside. Except in the direction of the entrance, there is no access to the other passages, let alone the staircase to the upper floors. There are a lot of magic defense arrays in the room, and casting offensive spells here will be suppressed in various ways. However, on the podium, the magic defense array has obvious loopholes, and the casting of spells there is completely unaffected. Is this a convenience for the lecturer, or is it a battlefield environment for the battle between the cadets?
One by one, other mages also arrived. It stands to reason that the seats on the very edge are relatively the best, but except for the orcs who have grabbed a side seat, the others don't even look at it, so they sit in the middle first. The last to come in was the masked elf, who paused when he saw the seat, then walked slowly. Despite the mask, Siegel felt the man's gaze linger on him for a moment.
What does this mean? Siegel was puzzled.
