119. A Primer of Magic

Rand always remembered that Gleia had a marriage contract, and she didn't dare to be too active, for fear that others or Gruya would misunderstand. For the current Rand, the most important thing is to explore the Night Qicheng City and let the thousands of people who originally lived on the Galloping Horse Plains have a settlement.

A genius classmate like Gu Leiya is like the Liel Arbor Fairy on Longtai Mountain, although it looks beautiful, it has little to do with herself.

On the morning of Thursday, December 22nd, Rand arrived at the library early in the morning, wanting to learn more about the magic of this world for a little time, and asked the caretaker on the first floor for books on the principles of magic, and the caretaker asked him to go to the fourth floor.

In his last life, Rand lived for more than 30 years, and he had read several novels and watched dozens of movies, and in this life he became a demon supporter, and he could faintly perceive magic and vindictiveness in his senses, but the life experience and knowledge of his two lives could not tell him what magic was and what its characteristics were.

The 4th floor of the Blue Dragon Library is very similar to the 5th floor that Rand has visited, and the outermost shelves are filled with ordinary books about magic, including ancient stone slabs, booklets made of animal skin paper, and exquisite printed books that Rand had seen before, and Rand found almost 20 books.

Rand's original expectation was that these books would provide an overview of the definition of magic, and that he could continue to validate the concepts in the books through his own practice.

However, to Rand's disbelief, he found 20 books that gave him no less than 30 definitions of magic.

For example, the dizzying depiction on the oldest stone tablet is recorded in the introduction paper on the side, which records the demigod "The One One" on magic: magic comes from the will of the main god, and the gods of the world are all the faces of the main god.

For example, the Witch Cult's Beast Book records the oracle of the witch god, and the whole world is composed of several elements: wind, fire, water, earth, wood, light, and darkness.

For example, in a manuscript, based on the oracle of Leo, the demigod of magic strings, it is believed that magic is the resonance of the strings of the soul and the strings of the world.

There is even a yellow leaf, which says that the whole world is a "master" of life, and each individual is a "part of the master".

It can be said that the source of magic is the source of the world and the source of the power of the gods, so every book on magic is based on the oracle of a god or demigod, and explains the origin and composition of magic at the beginning.

In this world, God is real and can appear in the mortal world, and their oracles are not just words, but also reflect God's attitude.

After cursingly flipping through a few books with oracles, Rand felt his head swell and his nose, eyes, and ears filled with blood.

"Classmates? Are you okay? A boy reading a book on the side suddenly shouted, "Come on, this classmate has fainted."

Rand was in great pain at the moment, his body was congested in many places, and even made it difficult for him to breathe, and in a trance, he only saw that the roof of the fourth floor was getting farther and farther away from him, deeper and deeper, and the surroundings were getting brighter and brighter.

The students gradually gathered and shouted to themselves, but all they could hear at the moment was breathing.

The distant sky seemed to be filled with endless murmurs, waves of the sea, smoke and dust, lightning and thunder, if countless great forces were constantly entangled and quarrelling.

"Your Majesty, please save the believer in front of you, show him a new direction, and dispel the gloom in front of him" When Rand was about to fall to the ground, he felt that he was caught by a pair of large hands, followed by a soft voice.

Immediately after, Rand seemed to see a light, his soul was surrounded by holy light, and his body became warm.

"Let's go back" A warm current sprinkled from the sky, as if a big hand was holding him.

In a burst of sounds, Rand opened his eyes.

"Viscount Rand? Are you awake? The first thing Rand saw was Gurea's concerned expression.

As soon as she arrived at the library to read a book, she heard someone shouting for help, and she thought that a student had cast a spell out of control, but she didn't expect to see Rand fall to the ground.

"Mr. Viscount, I still recommend that you stay in school for a year, even students who have just entered school for half a year know that these books should not be read at the same time." The dragon girl casually glanced around, and probably understood Rand's current situation.

How can mortals define the origin of magic? Even a magus can only connect himself to the magic net and feel the magic element.

The natural ones who really understand magic are those gods, especially witch gods, wizard gods, and even goddesses of magic nets, and the definition of magic nets by these gods is their most fundamental doctrine, so opening the works of many gods in a short period of time is equivalent to leaving one temple on the front foot and another temple on the back foot.

If it is an ordinary demonless person, it actually does not have much impact, but Lante's soul is particularly sensitive to Gao Wei's gaze.

Fortunately, Rand is not the first daredevil, and in order to protect these students who are most thirsty for magic, the school library has also arranged a large number of requiem and concentrating circles in the library just in case.

"Even a magister wouldn't dare to think of you looking at the oracles of the gods like this." "To the gods, magic is magic, but they put their perspective above the oracle and became a conduit for their followers to understand magic.

Just like the observation hole that opens on top of a door, the view in the magician's house, the position of each god's opening is different, but the content after the opening is the same.

You're now trying to see the hole under the door with one eye, and you're screwing yourself up with the other eye trying to see the hole at the top of the door. ”

Rand understood what Gurney meant, so he borrowed an analogy from his past life, "I saw several huge cylinders in the hole under the door, a pair of huge white teeth in the hole in the door lock, and a slender tail in the hole near the hinge, and if I didn't look at the holes in the different parts, how would I know that there was an elephant behind it?" ”

"Hahaha, your metaphor is very vivid" There is no allusion to a blind man touching an elephant in this world, but there is a very similar proverb, "You are only at the beginning now, it is very good to be able to see through the small hole inside the door, don't be too greedy."

When you connect to the web and feel the magic of magic, you will understand today's parable."

Rand has nothing to do now, and Grenya is naturally leaving, and when she leaves, Grua gives Rand a textbook called "Records of Magical Masters", which is a book for magic apprentices to enlighten, which also mentions the definition and source of magic, but does not trace back to the gods, but lists the views of various magic schools and sects in the form of schools.

Rand was very grateful, but the book was not thin, and Rand felt that he might not be able to read it today, so he went to the first floor to borrow it.

Fortunately, as a court nobleman in the palace, it is still very convenient to borrow an ordinary book, and you can pay it back at any time within a year, even if you can't change it, you can pay some money to the Blue Dragon family as compensation.
