Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Magic Test
Standing on the top floor of the magic tower overlooking Thorin City, you can see the entire city, and it is the first time for the three of them to stand on such a high place to look at the whole city, and it feels very fresh to see everywhere. Main didn't bother them, and let them watch as much as they wanted, and when the three of them finally had enough of the scenery, Main introduced to the three of them: "On the top floor of the magic tower, there are magic devices that are used to support the operation of the enchantment in the whole city, you see, these are magic devices." ”
The three of them followed Main's fingers, and sure enough, they saw many strange devices, some of which looked like spheres, and some of which were strange statues, and they couldn't tell what they were. The three of them looked at these things curiously, and they all had the same thought in their hearts: "The magic guild is really unfathomable, and the power they have is far beyond people's imagination......"
Seeing that the three of them were very curious about this, Main smiled and said: "Now the major cities on the mainland are basically equipped with enchantments, and with these enchantments, not only can the safety of the city be protected, but the wars between countries will also be reduced, and it is not easy to break through the cities protected by the enchantment." The implication of Main's words is obvious, the power of the Magic Guild is enough to influence the war on the continent, and without the permission and help of the Magic Guild, it is almost impossible to capture a big city.
Sawan couldn't help but be secretly surprised when he heard this, the power of the Magic Guild is so huge, no wonder even the kings of various countries dare not provoke this guild casually, and now the Magic Guild has become an existence that is above all countries.
At this time, Eliza asked Main, "How did all this come about? ”
Main laughed: "Actually, it's not that exaggerated, as long as you become a magician, many things will naturally be understood, in fact, it's very simple." Of course, it is not easy to become a qualified magician, in addition to having a magical talent in itself, it is necessary to go through a lot of study, and the magician spends most of his time researching and studying, so that he can make these complex devices. ”
Exewin smiled: "Archmage Main is too easy to say, not to mention anything else, few people can achieve this magic talent alone, otherwise there will be no more magicians on the continent than that." ”
Main shook his head and said: "Actually, no, many people are talented in magic, but they don't have the opportunity to learn, I think this may be because of the inheritance of magic, magicians are often their own students, so only a few people can learn magic, if I have the opportunity in the future, I hope to open a magic school, so that more people have the opportunity to learn magic." ”
Eczewin shook her head in disbelief, and she said bluntly, "If that's the case, wouldn't the magician be worthless." ”
Main said: "No, no, I don't think so, more people can do more things if they know magic, and the number of magicians is too small now, and some things are powerless even if they want to." Exewin didn't continue arguing with Main, after all, this is a matter of the Magic Guild, and outsiders are just watching the fun.
Eliza seemed to be more interested in learning magic, and she asked, "How do you know if a person has a talent for magic?"
Main said: "It is both simple and troublesome, if it is simple, it will only need to be tested with a special object, but if it is complicated, it will require the magician to observe the person for a long time, in short, this is more troublesome." At this point, Main smiled slightly wryly.
Eliza stuck out her tongue when she heard Main's words, and Main smiled when she saw it, obviously amused by Eliza's cute appearance. As if she suddenly thought of something, she said, "I have a magic bead here to test your magic power, do you want to test it, although you can't completely determine a person's magical talent with this, but you can still see some clues." ”
Exewin smiled and waved his hand, "I don't need to." ”
Eliza was looking forward to it, and she hurriedly said, "Give me a test, I want to see how much magic talent I have." ”
Main said, "Isn't Miss Eliza a magician? ”
"But I still want to see ......," said Eliza, rubbing her hands together.
"No problem. As she spoke, Main pulled out an orange-yellow bead from her body, which was about the size of an egg in the palm of her hand.
"This is called a magic bead, which can be used to test the magic power of magicians, and it is also effective for ordinary people, people with magical talents will be born with some magic power, but if you haven't learned magic, you don't know how to apply it. Which of you will try it first?" Main said.
At this time, Eliza was a little embarrassed, she pushed Exewin first and said, "Let Sister Exewin try first." ”
Exewin waved his hand again and again, "I don't have to test, anyway, I'm not a magician." ”
Main said: "Come on, it's okay to test it, the elves should be born with some magic, but the elves' spells are a little different from our magic." ”
Exewin couldn't refuse, so he went to Main and asked, "How is this going to be tested?"
"It's simple, just put your hand on the bead and don't think about anything. Main explained.
Exewin followed Main's words and gently put his hand on the orb, and then calmed himself down, and after a while, he saw that the orange-yellow bead began to glow slightly, and the light gradually became brighter, and a faint orange light reflected on Exsevan and Main's hand.
"Look, I'm right. Elves are born with magical powers, and they can judge a person's magic power by just looking at the strength of the light. Main said.
Exewin withdrew his hand, turned to Eliza, and said, "Now you are satisfied, come on, it's your turn." ”
Eliza came to Main and put her hand on the bead as Exevin had done, and after a while, the bead began to glow brightly, and the intensity of the light continued to increase, until the light shrouded both Eliza and Main in a patch of orange.
Main exclaimed in amazement: "Miss Eliza is really the material for learning magic, such a bright light has even reached the level of a gray-robed mage, I wonder who Miss Eliza followed to learn magic?"
Eliza blushed and replied with a stammer, "This ...... This one...... I'm not very convenient...... I apologize for the inconvenience of explaining. ”
Main smiled: "It's okay, some magicians don't like to tell others about their inheritance, I have also met some such magicians, no wonder outsiders say that magicians are weirdos, this is somewhat reasonable." Main's words amused all three.
Main turned to Swain and said, "Swain will test it too, maybe you're a magic genius too, just like Miss Eliza." ”
Sawan hurriedly excused himself, he knew that he must not have any magic power, God gave the dragon clan a strong physique but made the dragon clan unable to cultivate magic, which is called a gain and a loss. However, Sawan could not withstand the persuasion of Eliza and Exsevan, and finally agreed to give it a try, and both of them, like Main, were curious about whether Sawin had any magical talents.
I saw Sawan touch his hand to the beads, the orange-yellow beads did not shine for a long time, only trembled slightly, as if something was going to come out of it, and in the end there was still no trace of light, which made Eliza very disappointed, it seems that Sawin really does not have a certain amount of magic. Sawan also felt embarrassed, he didn't have any magic power among the three people, which means that he is not a material for cultivating magic at all, but it's normal to think about it, it's strange for an active person like him to be able to practice magic.
Main smiled: "It seems that the heavens are fair, and gave Sawan the talent to cultivate martial arts, so he took away the magic power." Samhain didn't have to be discouraged, after all, not everyone needed to learn magic. ”
Coming down from the magic tower, Main led a few people to the front hall, and said a little apologetically: "Originally, according to the etiquette, I should have invited three people to dinner, but there are really no one in our magic guild who can cook, so I have to be sorry for the three." ”
The three of them all waved their hands and said, "No, Archmage Main is too polite, it is already a rare treatment to let us visit the Magic Tower, and there is no need to ...... to eat."
As they spoke, they walked to the gate of the Magic Guild, where the carriage was already waiting. The three of them were about to say goodbye to Main, but Main spoke first, only to see him say to Samin: "Samin, I wish you to win the next match, and I will go to your match if I have time." ”
"Thank you, Archmage Main, and I hope you'll be here in person. Sawan nodded.
Then Main said goodbye to Exewin, and finally said to Eliza: "Miss Eliza's talent is really rare, if you are willing to learn more magic, you can come to the Magic Guild to find me, as long as you show them this, please accept it." As she spoke, Main handed Eliza a small badge, which was obviously Main's personal badge.
Eliza hesitated for a moment but took the badge, then clutched it in her palm and said to Main, "Thank you very much for your hospitality, I will seriously consider your suggestion." With that, Eliza boarded the carriage with her skirt on her shoulder.
The three of them waved at Main, and the carriage slowly drove out of the alley to the crisp sound of horses' hooves.
