Chapter 39: The New "Door"

-- Changed it slightly --

"Is there anything like that in the Colosseum?" Edward scratched his head, curious, "Is it used to fight monsters?" but as far as I know, this kind of cruelty was forbidden by His Majesty Sauman more than a hundred years ago?"

"It's just a common name, and it's a place for mages to practice spells and conduct actual combat exercises...... But it can also be used to engage in one-on-one duels. (Like this book, please bookmark biquge.info)"

"Oh, the actual combat 'drill'...... I don't really understand, but it sounds amazing. Can you choose who to fight? What if it's a dragon?"

"Of course, you can simulate any kind of battle imaginable, as long as you can pay for it, even if you want to challenge the dragon. ”

"It's asking for money again, don't you think there are too many places in the mage tower to ask for money?"

"That's true...... Damn, I'm not talking about this"

Although people in this world are already regarded as adults at the age of fifteen or sixteen, or even fourteen years old, so eleven or twelve-year-old children are usually not regarded as ordinary children, but obviously, the difference in experience is difficult to make up for - the words that have deviated from the track between the two sentences have made the original high momentum plummet, even if Xiao Peng raises his voice violently, it cannot be remedied.

The corners of his mouth curled into a narrow, or mocking, arc, and Edward narrowed his eyes as he looked at the imp in front of him.

The face with a very pointed jaw has a pair of slender eyes, which looks very thoughtful, but there is no impression in the memory, and it should not be the same person as him in the admission exam.

And since he dared to challenge, he must have a certain amount of strength - although due to some regulations about the academy that had been announced before, he was now only wearing a simple robe, but the slight marks on his fingers, wrists and neck were enough for the hunter to see how complicated and luxurious those bits and pieces that he originally wore were. In particular, his speech is clear and has a certain rhythm, and if you combine it with his long, slender fingers, with slightly convex joints, they constitute some capital that can be proud of even among mages.

It's just that about capital, Edward's deepest memory is an old joke about a certain coal boss's son who has a lot of money and claims that he can use money to open the way for anything in the imperial capital, so someone asked him how much he needed to change the photo of the castle tower to his father's.

So, it's one thing to have capital, but it's another thing to think that you can pursue a qiē with capital.

"Okay, Gladiatorial Arena...... And then what?" The thought in his heart turned, and Edward nodded silently.

"Being superior means having the ability to be superior to others, to be able to pay a price that ordinary people can't afford, to be able to handle all the trials and tribulations, and to be able to face any tricky opponent with ease...... So I think that if you don't have this ability, you are also not suitable for the superior status of the chief. Xiao Peng, who thought that the other party had finally begun to get serious, raised his head and stared at Edward's eyes stubbornly and defiantly: "And I, Miguel Don Cervantes, am confident that I have the strongest spell-casting ability of all the apprentices. I can sense the third layer of the web, and I have the most spells I have in my possession of any apprentice. Yes, I have such self-confidence. ”

"Oh...... And then what?"

"I think I'm better suited to be the Head of Apprenticeship. It's not you" someone's bland reaction obviously surprised Xiao Peng's expectations, so his voice froze, and his face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Unfortunately, his opponent remained silent: "Good idea, and then what?"

"So, I'm going to have a one-on-one duel with you! Of course, you can choose other ways to play."

"Well, and then what?"

"You ......"

In fact, sometimes, sarcasm doesn't need any special words, as long as it is enough to show a certain insincere attitude, so in a few words, Xiao Peng's face seems to be about to drip blood, but his control power seems to be quite 'colorful', after taking a deep breath, his voice has already recovered cold: "If you don't want to accept it, then Edward Vincent, please declare directly to the mages that you give up your position as the chief."

"I don't see any connection between these things, little one...... Or do you think that if you win me in a one-on-one challenge, or in a certain competition, you can get the top spot?"

Edward shook his head, and his gaze swept over the shadows in front of him, and the little ones who thought they were well hidden—fewer than expected, but still many—and it was clear that not everyone in the apprentices cared about the title of chief, but not all of those who cared would choose this challenge, so it seemed like a good idea to encourage a fool to run and step on a mine, and then observe the results, so as to recognize the opponent and the friend.

But as long as you are not a real fool, you should understand that since this title was given by the mages, it is naturally impossible to change it lightly by some boring actions of the apprentice.

"All I have to do is defeat you and prove that I'm better than you, that's all it takes. For the rest, the mages will naturally make appropriate judgments...... Tomorrow at noon, see you in the gladiatorial arena," said Miguel's little friend in one breath, and turned to leave, obviously not wanting to see that smiling face again.

But even as the sun went from midnight to dusk the next day, Miguel Don Cervantes was not able to see the face again in front of the Colosseum, the angry face he had spent all night preparing for, vowing to crush the hateful smile completely.

Well, in fact, at this time, Edward is indeed engaged in a battle...... It's just that in the mage's room, the object is a magical parchment.

It was an uphill battle that I didn't expect, and there were too many difficulties from the start.

First of all, after walking through a few shops in the city, Edward was unable to find the linguistic amulet, and the scrolls were kept for too short, so he had to go back to the shop of the magic academy that he would not enter before he swore to become an upstart, and "draw" two hundred out of the few gold coins that were left - the amulet that solidified the linguistic spell was no more than a piece of bronze the size of a thumb's head, and the asking price was a terrible two thousand gold coins, "touch" "touch" With his own shriveled purse, Edward could only end up renting it for a month at a tenth price.

Well, that's a minor issue compared to what comes next.

And then there are the magic scrolls - since they are magic scrolls, it is not for nothing to open them.

Although they do not have any effect, they still require the reader to connect to the web and open it with the Essence Divine Power - this may be a mere habit for the mages who write them, and will help protect them from decay and worms, and opening such a magical device is as simple as untying the knots.

However, for Edward, who was not a mage, it was not so easy.

Although the Cheng dù of these magic locks was high and low, even if it was the lowest class, he could only open five or six copies before he began to get tired...... And the rest of the process is even more troublesome - in fact, in the following reading, the new apprentice finds himself extremely disgusted with the writers of these scrolls, the state of knowledge of these scrolls, these scrolls are written in various languages, there is no one to "classify" the various knowledge systems, or even the necessary arrangement, and even most of the things recorded in the parchment scrolls do not even have a title, just "messy" and stuffed into a heap, scattered

Edward's search for only a general direction meant that if he wanted to find the information he needed about psionic powers, he would have to read the difficult ones word by word, which would be a terrible trouble for an apprentice

So, in the course of nearly a day, Edward barely flipped through about ten scrolls...... However, the conclusions he came to were unusually frustrating.

Not at all.

Not to mention psionic powers, or even for magic, this information is not helpful in the slightest

Of course, this is not to say that there is anything wrong with these writings per se, but on the contrary, they are excellent sources, covering a wide variety of magical experiences and notes from previous generations. It even contains many excellent reconstructions and interpretations of magic, as well as the rudiments of unique magical theories......

But the problem is that it is so good - the fact that these writings, notes, and dissertations, if they were in the hands of a particular teacher, would have been highly praised, but unfortunately there was no such entry material for an apprentice, and Edward was just one of those who had just entered the ...... Or the guy who's still hovering outside the "door" threshold.

Of course, it's not all for nothing - at least in the middle of these scrolls, there are a few illustrated books of creatures.

The details of these illustrated books are far beyond those in the Apprentice's Gallery, not only completely quantifying all kinds of creatures, with detailed drawings, but also containing countless terrifying monsters, abysses, hells, heavenly realms, and unrestrained wilderness that ordinary people cannot see...... Many of the more than a dozen monsters in the heterotopic plane seem to be able to find the details here, which has opened the eyes of a certain earth bun who doesn't know enough about this world.

Unfortunately, what is also frustrating is the part he wants to see the most.

"Spirit-sucking monsters, a kind of monster that lives in the dark realms. Also known as the Mind Flayer. Adult Mind Flayer is about 6 feet tall and weighs about 170 pounds when standing, with milky white eyes without pupils, four tentacles near its mouth, and a head that looks like an octopus. The body is pale purple "color", and the skin is cold and elastic...... Covered with a layer of reflective slime...... Legend has it that these weirdness have a long history...... Tear apart the heads of enemies and steal brains...... The Mind Flayer will use his psychic power to control the opponent's thoughts, or use telepathic shocks...... They are able to use special methods to 'manipulate' natural energy and create spell-like abilities, which they call psychic abilities......"

Edward's heart beat fast when he first looked at a line of writing, but the parchment text came to an abrupt halt when it arrived, leaving only a short string of vague characters. In the back section, there is a small blank space.

This made Edward a little depressed...... But more than that, it's scary.

As a general rule, it is not reassuring to consider that what is not documented is either so scarce that it is difficult to attract attention or that it has been erased from the record for some special reason...... The biggest possibility is that "sex" is more likely to be viewed by more eyes. Curious, greedy, fearful......

He Edward didn't want to be used as a guinea pig to play with the dissecting table, even if he wanted to play, he could only play with people, not with people......

......

......

He let out a long sigh...... When the chief apprentice rubbed his sour eyes and looked up from the scroll, he noticed that the magic hourglass in the room had quietly flipped over a large surface representing twelve hours.

A day has passed in this unyielding flavour?

Edward rubbed his eyes and yawned. I couldn't help but pull the corners of my mouth and look at it like this once, when was it? It seems to have been twenty years ago?

Although this world is magically developed, the level of technology is mediocre, there are no computers, no televisions, no 3, no Internet, and no entertainment of all kinds...... The only thing that can be called entertainment is Ben, but even this kind of thing is very rare, and if it weren't for the fact that he could still venture out to swim in the Whispering Forest and learn various abilities, I'm afraid Edward would have been bored to death......

Although there is no entertainment to be carried out these days, it is good to have something to see - although the things recorded in these books have no rhetorical devices, and are almost dry, but after all, they are some other worldview, strange types of monsters, myths and legends, and magical secrets, which can be considered boring to read. There are a lot of hidden things involved, and even if you can't comprehend it now, it doesn't hurt to take a look.

Still, in moderation.

Standing up, he 'touched' a few pieces of dried 'meat' from the space bag, chewed it slowly, and then put water into his stomach, but suddenly felt that his lower body, especially the roots of his 'legs' and knees, were already a little numb - the temperature in this room was actually not low, but it was because no one had been active in one of them for too long, so there was a kind of "yin" cold to the bone. Especially since he's been sitting for so long.

Shaking his head, he simply pushed the door out of the room and began to walk through the silent corridors of the Mage Tower. By the way, continue to explore if there are any hidden places that you have missed. And through a few windows, you can see the strange monster specimens collected in some rooms, and some strange plants and small animals, which is also a good pastime.

The soles of his boots rattled with the clattering sound of the stone bricks on the ground, echoing in the silence, the space in the mage tower was too large, and after nearly two miles of the corridor, Edward saw a figure in the distance turning the corner of the passage - if it weren't for the fact that it was difficult for negative energy creatures to haunt here, he might have wondered if there was something unclean following him.

After exploring the original route again, before he knew it, he was back in the dark corridor in front of the room, facing the dozen or so closed "doors".

Among the dozen or so "doors", he had tried them one by one yesterday, but except for the room, there was nothing to gain - all the red light representing magic on the exit layer was surprisingly thick, making him feel dangerous even if he reached out to touch it.

But today, when he passed through these rooms again, he was suddenly surprised to find that the "door" in the third room on his left hand seemed to be gone, and the heavy brilliance that had been closed layer by layer seemed to be gone.

So, as he approached, the door clicked softly and slowly popped aside.

"My God......"

The moment his gaze reached into the door, Edward couldn't help but let out a small moan—a terrifying red glow that blinded his eyes and made him almost invisible for a moment

After blinking his eyes for a long time, he could barely see the appearance of this room - it also had smooth walls and floors, only brighter, prismatic magic crystals hung down from the heavenly "flower" board with silver chains, constantly emitting a steady soft light to the surroundings, and under this light, this space was filled with all kinds of things, most of which were broken utensils, spell materials contained in bottles and jars, dusty iron pots, armor with missing arms and legs, and strangely shaped long swords.

But the red light emanated from these strange things, and Edward could even feel the "waves" of facial magic - whatever it was, but it was definitely an extremely high-end magical item

It's just that now those things are piled up casually, and the surface has been "covered" with a fine layer of ash.

Over here...... It should be legendary. The real yàn room of the mage?

Edward clenched his fists, the pain of his fingernails stabbing into his palms, making sure he wasn't dreaming.

So, do you want to go in, or don't you want to go in?

It's a simple question, but it's also a life-threatening question.

Because legend has it that a mage's real room is always one of the most dangerous places, and the danger will increase with the improvement of the master's ability, far beyond those strange ruins or tombs that mercenaries often explore. The mechanisms in those places are just some crossbow arrows falling stones, or some murderous traps, even if there is magic protection, it will not be too expensive, but it is different for their own station, most mages can not care about money, but the protection of the test results is extremely perverted, what hidden space, burst elements, creatures on the heterotopic plane, how many will be used......
