Chapter 342: Arcane Mage of the Sea
"The person the old man wants to thank the most is Chairman Duke."
The day after the seven bells rang in the Faling Towers across the country, the newly promoted 7-Ring Morning Star Arcane Tutor, the current chief director of the Taurite Tower in Gaohe City, the erudite sage Elivan, was a guest at the Seven Towers Light Station and told the story of his promotion to the stars.
As soon as he came up, Elavin began to thank Duke: "These old men have accumulated enough, but listening to the whispers of the stars is always not smooth, because there is a lack of knowledge of new things. ”
The moderator didn't interrupt Elivan's conversation, but just nodded in agreement.
While reminiscing about the past, Eleven sighed with emotion: "Until Chairman Duke was born, the ring of imprints shocked the world, and the old man finally found a trace of freshness...... I thought that the Ring of Imprint would be limited, but who would have expected that Chairman Duke would release the Ring of Spirit Rhinos again. ”
The Ring of Imprint, the Ring of the Spiritual Rhino, brings about the spiritual arcane cognition, which really benefits the world, and all the arcane mages benefit from it.
Elivan has benefited the most, and these new technologies are another layer of interpretation of the spiritual arcane.
"With the help of two rings, the old man is already able to listen to the whispers of the starry sky, and hear some plausible content a little." Elivan said with a smile, "At that time, the old man's gratitude to Chairman Duke can be imagined, but this is still not the limit. ”
Subsequently, Duke released the Ring of Light, which exploded the whole world and turned the Wild Continent into a village.
"The enlightenment that the Ring of Light and Faith has brought to me is immeasurable, and with my in-depth study of the Ring of Light and Faith, the whispers of the stars are becoming clearer and clearer, so to speak, I am only one step away from the stars, and I can take off in time!"
Speaking of this, the hostess on the side couldn't help but wow, and looked at the white-haired old man with adoring eyes.
The beard and hair are all white, which is already the standard for high-level arcane mages.
However, the skin, muscles and other physiology are still at their peak under the maintenance of spiritual energy, and they will remain young forever.
Such a "young" old man with supreme power, how can the hostess not worship it, and she can't wait to pack herself and give it to the old man as a snack.
"But what." Elivan didn't look at the hostess, at his age, he didn't know how many arms he had experienced, so he had already treated it indifferently, "Just when the old man was about to hold on to time, Chairman Duke released the Ring of Phantom Beasts and the Ring of Qi Refining one after another. ”
He deeply admired: "Although the old man did not open the sea of blood and the sea of qi, but the touch is bypassed, these two rings still bring the old man a fresh cognition of the morning and evening, so time can no longer stop the old man, the old man heard all the whispers of the starry sky clearly, and finally walked out of the chapter of stars that belongs to the old man himself!" ”
Bang bang bang.
The hostess applauded lightly, her eyes were already dizzy, if she wasn't also a 1-ring arcian mage, she could restrain her emotions, and she would really have to dedicate herself to the live broadcast of light.
The abyss aura exuded by the stars itself is as coercive as an abyss, which makes people have the urge to kneel and worship, if it is replaced by an ordinary host, there will inevitably be a discordant picture.
Glancing at the squirming hostess, Elivan said indifferently: "The old man is just one step ahead of others and promoted to the stars first." The old man believes that in the Seven Towers Federation and even in the world, there are not a few Sky Arcane Mages who are trapped in the ring of the starry sky whispering like the old man. ”
He faced the camera and said in a solemn tone, "Next, you will see more Sky Arcane Masters and promote to the stars!" ”
Stretch out a hand and shake it in front of the camera.
Elivan's tone gradually revealed a hint of fanaticism: "The five rings of Chairman Duke will forge a star world!" ”
In front of the light machine, thousands of households are tuning in, the first appearance of the new stars.
Seeing that the new stars admired Duke so much, those people who already admired Duke puffed up their chests as if they were honored, and those who had reservations about Duke kept muttering in their hearts and silently adjusting their perception of Duke.
The five ring prophets and seven sages really do not fall into the name of the world's first sages.
"Sir, even the stars are your believers." Ibuprofen, who had been promoted to the head of the office of the Duke Sage Mage Tower, looked at the light machine and thanked Duke for the endless new star Elivan, and let out a sigh of relief.
"It's okay, Elivan is not ungrateful, he knows how to accept my affection." Duke's tone was flat, but his reserved and smug expression could not hide it.
Even the stars have become his followers, which is really a proud thing to be revealed.
"The arcane mages of the world have to be the first to give birth to you." Ibuprofen said as a matter of course, "The great achievements you have released have helped countless arcane mages expand their knowledge, and this is a fact that cannot be erased no matter what. ”
Duke waved his hand indifferently: "There is no need to repay the favor, I invented these technologies, and no one will thank me, just to change the world." ”
Such a light and breezy posture, such domineering words.
If it were a strange female arcane mage, it is estimated that she would have thrown herself into her arms a long time ago, but ibuprofen is already immune to this.
Accustomed to Duke's posture, the threshold is naturally high.
Moreover, she is also very aware of Duke's face control attributes, and she was born ordinary, so she is honestly a subordinate. Don't expect to climb from a little assistant to the height of a lady like Winona Firefly and Janis Ice Crown.
"Sir, is it true that Lord Elivan said that there will be more Sky Arcans to be promoted to stars in the future?"
"There should be a few Sky Arcane Mages, with the help of the Five Rings, who will rise into the stars. But there are not too many, whether or not it can be lifted into the air depends on the Sky Arcane Mage's own understanding, and the help of the five rings is definitely not the key factor. ”
Duke replied matter-of-factly.
Elivan can be promoted to the stars, and perhaps it is indeed with the help of Duke's five rings that he can find that opportunity to break through.
But at the end of the day, it's Eleven's own accumulation that makes it all a matter of course.
So.
At the Supreme Council meeting the next day, after the arrival of Eleven's clone, he personally expressed his gratitude to Duke, but Duke did not accept it.
"Eleven, this is your own accumulation, I just provide a little opportunity." Duke laughed.
Elivan said with a straight face: "Lord, you may not value these things, but even this slight opportunity is infinitely important to me, please allow me to express my gratitude to you, otherwise I will be ashamed." ”
"Okay, it's up to you." Duke was helpless.
"This is a good story, and congratulations." Linton Horned Cicada said with a smile, "Elder Commissioner, my Supreme Council has produced another star, which shows the arrival of the era of erudition!" ”
"Yes, Sage Linton is right, Lord Elivan is the first, and more people will join this prosperous era in the future."
"Yes, yes, even among my Supreme Committee, there are also a few sages who are qualified to impact the stars."
"The Sage of Hellington is."
"Ouch, the old man hasn't heard the whispers of the stars yet, it's too early to talk about impacting the stars, it's too early!"
The atmosphere of the Supreme Council and the joy of harmony.
Duke let the crowd stir for a while before he began to chair today's meeting, reviewing a new technology and assigning the task of promoting it.
Although he has not invented any new technologies in the past few years, with the help of the platform of the Supreme Committee, he has really promoted the development of naturalism in the Seven Towers Federation. In particular, around the Ring of Light and Letter, we will promote communication policies at all levels and integrate the whole federation into one.
Now, even small remote counties have been connected to fiber optic cables.
Not only that, but under his promotion, the railroad began to be built frantically, and the extensive rail lines greatly accelerated the flow of people.
At the same time, the speed of the track line has also increased again and again, and now some high-speed tracks have increased their speed to 600 kilometers per hour.
It takes two or three days to drive from one field center city to another field center city.
This speed has far surpassed that of airships, and it has gradually caught up with warships, and Duke is still presiding over the development of higher-speed railtrains, and it is very likely that battleships will be eliminated by high-speed railtrains.
Of course.
Duke still likes warships, and the Mobile Fortress is more comfortable to sit on than a rail train, so he is also in charge of the development of high-speed warships.
In the age of micro-spirituality, speed is equally important.
It can be said that Duke is combining the respective advantages of the Earth and the Barren Continent to create an unprecedented great era.
"The next step is to push the fiber optic cable from the county seat to the newly established market towns." Duke stressed at the meeting.
The former market towns, such as Serpent's Head Town, have been renovated and upgraded to the current county seat.
As the knight class became stronger and stronger, and the qi refiners continued to pour out, more and more people went out of the city and opened up into the surrounding forests. Countless market towns pioneered by low-level arcane mages, knights, and qi refiners have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
Duke is now going to bring these emerging market towns into the integration of communications.
An hour later.
End of meeting.
At the present stage, the SPC meeting has always lasted within an hour, explained everything clearly, and then adjourned.
For no other reason, Duke's earth clone could only last for an hour and a quarter of an hour.
Leave a quarter of an hour for documents to be processed, signed and sealed, so the meeting is only an hour. Fortunately, most of the erudite sages are clones in meetings, and the time is limited, so they move neatly, reducing all kinds of grinding and nonsense.
Next.
Duke's Earth clone participated in the Stars Meeting, and the theme of the meeting was to welcome Elivan to the Stars Meeting.
At the same time, Elivan's new role will be discussed.
The position arrangement of the stars usually has five places, and the first one is naturally the head of the five towers.
As we all know, the Federation of Seven Towers has seven towers representing power, among which the head of the Union Tower and the Observation Tower is Huiyue, and it is called the head of the two towers. Therefore, the star towers of the remaining five towers are also called the five towers together.
At present, the capital of the five towers is an old star, and it is obvious that it cannot be moved.
The second place where the stars go is the Twelve Realm Guardians.
Elivan was born in the Gravel Realm, and the original Guardian of the Gravel Realm had caused Miguil to degenerate into a Sinking Demon, and if Elivan had been promoted to the Star a few years earlier, he would have been able to take over as the Guardian. Only now, there are already stars serving as the town guards of the Gravel Realm.
Maylis, the current Gravel Domain Warden, was also from the Gravel Realm, and was transferred after Miguil's fall.
The third place for the stars is the Arcane Aid Legion, which currently has eight legions, and all eight of them are on the go.
The fourth place where the stars go is the Eight Outer Courtyards, that is, the Knight Hermitage and the Spirit Plant Research Institute, which are subordinate institutions of the Seven Towers. Nominally under the jurisdiction of the Seven Towers, in fact, they are all independent management and research institutions, but the current dean is also full.
The fifth place for the stars is the Seven Towers general managerial position.
Such as the executive director and executive director of each tower, as well as the secretary general of the Stars Conference, the chief director of the Welcome Tower of Good Hope City, and so on.
"Seven Towers, what other vacancies are there?" Speaker Serthas asked directly.
Secretary-General Tyral responded: "At present, the positions of executive directors of the three towers of Offah, Erudite Tower, and Star Tower are held by Sky Arcane Mage, who can integrate the committee under his command and provide the position of the stars. There is also the chief director of the special tower of the four cities, which can also provide the position of the stars. ”
"Why don't you integrate the executive director of the Erudite Tower and the standard-setting committee under his command and let Elivan serve as the director?" Speaker Zambrotta proposed.
Maderon Rhodiola nodded: "I have no opinion. ”
Duke has no choice.
But Elevenn hesitated: "Well, I don't really have any interest in the general affairs of the Erudite Tower. ”
He has concerns, because the current executive director of the Erudite Tower, and the current director of the standard-setting committee, are his friends. If he integrates these two positions, these two friends will have to change positions, and it will be awkward to meet when the time comes.
As for the other positions, Elivan didn't like them either, because he had a soft spot for naturalism and wanted to work in the Erudite Tower.
"What are you doing, if you want to stay and work in the Boxue Tower, and you don't want to offend a few of your colleagues, how can you still have a little style of stars!" Sarilang snorted.
Elivan smirked, having just joined the Stars Meeting, and was not used to the noisy style of the Stars.
After several discussions, Duke simply proposed: "I recently have a plan to reorganize the Erudite Tower, transfer a group of backbones, and prepare the ninth outer courtyard, the Naturalist Research Institute, which is specially used to improve and integrate the existing erudite technology, so it is better to hand it over to Elivan to lead." ”
"Naturalist?" Maderon Rhodiola frowned, "Why haven't I heard of it." ”
"I haven't said it yet, of course you haven't heard of it."
"This matter needs to be considered in the long run."
"It's okay, let's talk about it, Elivan, can you wait?" Duke asked.
Elivan nodded hurriedly: "I can wait, I can wait, if I can really prepare a museum research institute, I am willing to serve as the director!" ”
This position is very much to his taste.
When Sel'thas heard this, he smiled: "Then let's discuss it now, the old man thinks that the museum research institute should indeed build one." Each of the seven towers has an outer courtyard, whether it is to improve technology or to balance the structure, it is time to build an outer courtyard. ”
After some discussion, the establishment of the Institute of Naturalism was determined, and Elivan would also serve as the first director of the Institute.
For a while, Duke's main energy was spent helping Elivan prepare for the Naturalist Institute.
This museum research institute is a bit similar to the Chinese Academy of Sciences on the earth, under the conception and construction of Duke, and has set up some subordinate museum research societies in various cities.
"When you set up the Naturalist Research Society, you should pay attention to formulating the research scope of the Naturalist Research Society according to the comprehensive strength of each city, such as the coastal city, which mainly studies naturalist techniques related to navigation."
"I see." Elivan replied.
"Okay, I won't say much else, if there is anything you need help with, just tell me." Duke said.
This busyness was busy until the spring of the following year.
Duke suddenly did not activate several of his clones for a week, but stayed in the Duke Sage Mage Tower, concentrating on cultivation.
Linghai Inner Vision.
The fourth ring on the surface of the spirit core, and the dense circuits that outline it, are about to form a perfectly closed loop.
"Process 1: Exclusive meditation method, vision resonance, spiritual boiling, projection fountain, suspend hang-up, and be practiced by the master himself. At present, the Spirit Sea level, the 4 Rings Earth Arcane Scholar, the cultivation progress is estimated to be 99.99%, and it is about to be completed! ”
On Xiaoyi's schedule, Duke's cultivation progress at this time is clearly listed.
From July 17, 4422, when he was promoted to the arcane mage of the earth, to today, April 27, 4430, which lasted for seven years, nine months, and more than ten days, Duke finally reached the point of consummation of the four rings.
Meditation, breathing.
Psionic energy poured into his body, active like boiling water, and frantically threw himself into Duke's fourth-layer ring structure.
"It's time."
A thought crossed Duke's mind.
The last batch of boiling spiritual particles poured into the fourth layer of the ring structure, closing the connected parts of the ring structure, and filling the last gap.
The next moment.
The entire ring structure burst into brilliant light, and the spiritual core expanded to the entire spiritual sea in an instant, and the zigzag energy lines passed through all the visions in the spiritual sea, outlining a mysterious but regular structure, and even the combination between spiritual particles was also mysterious.
Then, silently, a new loop quietly extended on top of the fourth-layer ring structure of the spirit core, surrounding the spirit core.
It's like a ring on a planet.
"The fifth ring!" Duke laughed, breakthroughs are like drinking water, and for him, every promotion is a matter of course.
His knowledge of spiritual mysteries far exceeded the speed of his practice.
Rumble!
The spirit core contracted, and returned to the most central origin of the spirit sea, and on the surrounding ring tracks, arcane wonders and arcane weapons complemented each other.
The Fifth Ring Track, which originally had only six additional slots, suddenly expanded into a large amount of space, which can be roughly divided into eight new slots.
"I can build new ideas again." Duke's mind indifferently watched the changes in the spiritual sea, and it was not until these changes stabilized that he withdrew from the spiritual sea.
Open your eyes.
Everything around them became brighter, not an illusion of vision, but a change in psionic perception.
His spiritual senses have become sharper, and his perception has been greatly improved.
The most important thing is that the ability unique to the Grand Arcane Mage, the Fountain of Projection, has also been greatly enhanced. Originally, the Fountain of Projection was like a super-faint fountain of spirituality, but now the Fountain of Projection was barely worth one-tenth of that of a small fountain of spirituality.
That's a lot of progress.
You must know that at the foot of Oaktooth Mountain, there are only two small spiritual springs, and usually one small spiritual spring can support the use of a mage tower.
In the future, even if Duke reaches the Jedi where his spirit is dry, he can rely on the Fountain of Projection to maintain a certain combat effectiveness.
"Eight years is four years less than the twelve years I originally expected." Duke calculated the time, this was the longest ring he had cultivated, but it had only been eight years, faster than most arcane mages had cultivated the first ring.
This year, Duke is 34 years old.
"Hit the stars before the age of 100, and nine out of ten are stable!" There are still sixty-six years left for him to hit the stars before he is 100 years old.
For other arcane mages, sixty-six years may not be able to complete the fifth ring, but for Duke, this is not a problem at all.
"The promotion of 1 ring to 2 rings is three years, and the promotion of 2 rings to 3 rings is also three years; 3 rings to 4 rings, it is four years, 4 rings to 5 rings, it is eight years, doubled; Well, let's say that it will take 16 years for 5 rings to be promoted to 6 rings, and it will take 32 years for 6 rings to be completed, and I will only be 82 years old by then. ”
He had already turned on the will of the stars, and listening to the whispers of the stars would probably be a formality, like clearing the fog of spiritual arcane.
So.
Duke calculates that when he is about eighty-two years old, he will be able to rise to stardom: "But in fact, I may be much younger than that, and I don't believe that it takes sixteen years to complete the five rings, and thirty-two years to complete the six rings!" Maybe ten or eight years! ”
If this is the case, he feels that he can even impact Huiyue before he is 100 years old.
If there is any big opportunity, it is not impossible to hit the 9th Ring Sun before the age of 100 and walk out of the first crown sun chapter of the Reckless Continent.
"Of course, it's too early to tell."
Duke stood up from the treehouse, ready to ask his assistant to report to the Faling Pagoda and update his Faling card information.
"Sir." Ibuprofen arrived quickly.
"Take my magic spirit card, go to the magic spirit tower, update my cultivation level, and become an arcane mage of the sea."
"Ahh Ibuprofen exclaimed in what Duke had expected.
Duke waved his hand indifferently: "Go ahead, nothing to be surprised at, and besides, tell Chief Director Edwin Moon Falcon, don't ring the bell and keep a low profile." ”
Ibuprofen had already recovered from his surprise, and said with a smile: "Sir, you better let the Faling Pagoda ring the bell, the bell ringing ceremony is for the staff of the Faling Pagoda, but there is a month's salary reward when you hear the sound." ”
"Don't." Duke refused, "At the end of last year, Elivin was promoted to the stars, but it was a full seven knocks, and the salary reward was enough. ”
The staff who can enter the five towers to work are basically not from low-level families.
Duke put his hands behind his back, walked to the path outside the treehouse, shook his head and said, "The rewards they have earned from me over the years are not small, so forget it this time." It's just a sea arcane mage, and there is no need to preach it. ”
Then and then, and here and now.
Duke's mindset is very different, and now he is a full-fledged member of the Syndicate of Stars, the Chief Sage of Offata, and one of the Speakers of the Six Chambers.
Unless you are promoted to the 7-Ringed Morning Star Arcane Mentor, there is no need to celebrate.
Even if the 7-ringed morning star is too old, there is no need to celebrate, because everyone knows and believes that sooner or later he will rise to the stars. What is the need to celebrate?
Ibuprofen followed behind him and said with a smile: "Sir, I will convey your meaning to Chief Director Edwin, but whether to ring the bell or not, I'm afraid Chief Director Edwin has his own ideas." ”
"Go, go, go." Duke waved.
He really didn't want to ring the bell, but if Edwin Moon insisted on it, he wouldn't be able to say anything. After all, Edwin Moonfalcon's daughter, Alyssa Moonfalcon, is also one of Duke's lovers, and this bit of face has to be given.
Sure enough.
A moment later, the buzzing bell rang five times, implying that the Seven Towers Federation and even the world, the youngest sea arcane mage was born, and it was also the fastest record to be promoted to the sea arcane mage.
In the sky above the entire Black Jiao River, the bells of the two Fa Ling Pagodas were fluttering.
One is the bell of the Faling Pagoda in Cuihai City, and the other is the bell of the Faling Pagoda in Shenjiao City, intertwined with each other and spread to every corner.
"Another star was born?" When the people heard the bell, their eyes widened.
"It's different, the stars are seven, and this time it only knocked five." Some people quickly discovered the difference.
But after a while, the common people knew why.
On the big screens of Shenjiao City, Cuihai City, and some squares in the surrounding counties, the latest news was all published: "Congratulations to Lord Duke on his successful promotion to the Arcane of the Sea!" ”
Although the congratulatory message was short, the content was amazing.
"Lord Duke has been promoted to the Arcane of the Seas?"
"Wow, Master Duke is only thirty-four years old!"
"Thirty-four-year-old Arcane Master of the Sea, have you seen it?"
"No, I've seen the forty-four-year-old 2-Huanao Mage, the director of Cuihai City Hospital, Shanfeisi, is the 2-Huanao Mage who was promoted at the age of forty-four!" A middle-aged man said with great certainty, "Dean Shanfeisi has operated on me!" ”
At the beginning of this year, Shanfiz finally relied on his research in medicine to successfully expand enough spiritual arcane cognition and was promoted to the 2nd Ring Arcane Mage.
However, after hearing this, the surrounding people said very coldly: "Forty-four-year-old Master 2 Huanao, you say a chicken!" ”
"By the time Lord Duke is forty-four years old, I'm afraid he won't all become Sky Arcane Mages!"
"All the stars are possible!"
"Yes, yes, Lord Duke is a spiritual incarnation, my son can be admitted to Sanhai University in Rubber Mountain, that is, I worship Lord Duke every day, and Lord Duke blesses him!"
