Chapter 007: Magic and Fighting Spirit
"Are you interested in taxes?"
"Nope. ”
On this day, while Don was scanning books, Josia came to the library to chat with him again.
"But you're holding the Imperial Tax Regulations. ”
"Uh, I'm just flipping through this"
Josia blinked and said, "Oh, but this book is just for show. There are more than 50 kinds of taxes stipulated in it, but there are nearly 100 taxes in Rhine City!"
"In this way, I think there needs to be a hearing or something about taxation, let's discuss it......"
"Hearings?"
"It's just to choose some taxpayers to discuss, so that it seems democratic......"
Josia's eyes lit up obviously: "Hey, democracy...... That's a good word. Does it mean that the people are free to call the shots?"
"Well, this word has a wide range of meanings, and I won't be able to explain it for a while, so you can understand it yourself first. Don looked unfathomable. Damn, it's too much...... How can I answer you, I have brought cheat sheets into the examination room for ideological and political exams since I was a child......
"Well, I know what you mean, you'll understand it more deeply if you understand it yourself, right?"
"Yes. "So, you have to find smart people for things like chatting, and when you can't take it, the other party will make up for it on their own.
Josia did not doubt him, and said solemnly: "Don, xiexie you, I really benefited a lot from talking to you. The day before yesterday, you said that it wasn't from this school, and I was curious, what do you do? Your thoughts are so profound, the teachers in the academy can't compare. ”
Uh, Don was stunned, his brain spinning rapidly: "Me...... I, I'm sending people to another place......"
Josia frowned and thought, "Send people to another place...... Captain?Coachman?"
"Coachman...... Well, read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles!" Tang En secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Read 10,000 books and travel 10,000 miles...... I've learned again, Don, you're really too insightful. Josia looked genuinely impressed.
"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay...... So what do you do, student?" Don chuckled dryly, quickly changing the subject.
"yes, don't underestimate me, I'm still a junior magician. ”
"Magician?" Donn's heart moved, "It's amazing, I'm quite curious about magic." However, there doesn't seem to be much to be covered in the books here. ”
"Important magic books are on the second floor, and only teachers are allowed to enter. I can go in, but I can't take you with ......me," Josia said embarrassedly.
"Well, that's okay. I'm just curious, you can just talk to me briefly. "Don took a rare opportunity to learn about magic, and naturally he didn't want to miss it.
Josia: "That's no problem, you've been pointing me out a lot these days, how else do I want to repay you......"
After a pause, he continued, "Around us, there are magical elements all the time. And the magician ......"
"Uh, wait a minute, what's the magic element?"
"You haven't heard of the magic element? Well, I'll tell you about it from the beginning. ”
............
Josia was undoubtedly a qualified teacher, and after a few more hours of detailed lectures, Don finally had a preliminary understanding of the magic of the other world.
According to the Otherworld, it is the air here that contains a large number of magical elements such as gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. If someone senses this element, you've got what it takes to be a magician.
The next step is to meditate to induce these magical elements into the body. Once a certain amount of magic has been gathered in the body, it is time to cast magic through specific spells and gestures.
To sum it up, magic doesn't seem to be hard to learn.
But first of all, you have to know a current situation, that is, there are only about a dozen people who can sense the magic element, and the probability is almost one in a thousand. ...,
And after crossing the first threshold, you must be able to smoothly attract magical elements into your body. The probability of this is higher, about 1 in 2.
In general, out of 10,000 people, there are five people who can really become high-level magicians.
It is precisely because of the scarcity of magicians that the five or six people who are selected, regardless of their origins, will have a bright future.
Any country, nobleman, will entertain them with the utmost sincerity.
If a high-level mage is willing to work for which shili and build a mage tower in their territory. Then during the time of the magician's existence, this shili will have a strong layer of protection. It can be said that there is absolutely no problem with the blessing of several generations.
Take Josia, for example, who came from a small aristocratic family. The clan is not doing well, and by her father's generation, the family's decline is inevitable. If nothing else, in the next generation, her family's noble title will also be withdrawn by the empire.
But since Josia was proven to have the potential to be a magician, and successfully became a junior water magician. The major families of Rhine City have thrown olive branches, and her family's status has risen rapidly, and now she has become a rising star in the aristocratic circle of Rhine City.
And the reason why magicians are so valued is fundamentally because of the power of magic.
According to Josia, if a great magician is given enough distance and time, he can wipe out a hundred-man cavalry brigade with a wave of his hand.
And the great magician is of course not the highest level of magicians, in the other world, magicians are divided into 8 levels: magic apprentice, junior magician, intermediate magician, senior magician, great magician, magician, archmagician, holy magician.
In addition to magic, Don also took the opportunity to learn about vindictiveness from Josia.
Josia's understanding of Dou Qi is not as systematic as magic, she only knows that there are many warriors who cultivate Dou Qi.
Dou Qi is stimulated through the continuous exercise of the body, if you learn something, when you reach the ground level martial artist, you can attract external liliang and turn it into your own use.
The power of the fighting spirit is also good, with an explosive liliang. If it was at close range, the magician would not dare to underestimate it.
Dou Qi, like magic, is also divided into 8 levels: trainee samurai, junior samurai, intermediate samurai, senior samurai, earth-level martial artist, air-level martial artist, heaven-level martial artist, and martial saint.
Zuihou, Josia also compared a magician and a samurai.
Generally speaking, in the early stage, a mage of the same rank has a great advantage over a samurai.
When the mage reaches the intermediate level and can hold up the magic shield, the samurai's melee threat is weakened, and this advantage is even greater.
Samurai must reach the advanced level before they can unleash the long-range attack of Douqi. And a high-level magician of the same level can already perform flying skills. After reaching a certain height, the samurai can only be a target.
The real threat of a samurai to a mage is to the realm of an empty-level martial artist, and a martial artist in this realm can stand in the void. In the fight with the Magic Society, it will not be at a significant disadvantage.
In general, the advantages of mages are more obvious.
Of course, the magician must remember that it is best not to let the samurai get close.
............
After listening to Josia's story, Don felt a chill in his heart.
The various killing techniques he had learned now were aimed at ordinary people, and he wondered if they would be effective against samurai and magicians.
Even if it works, it must be discounted...... So, what did he rely on to kill Sesman?, Donn pondered.
"Hey, Josia, so you're here, but I'll be able to find you. "At the entrance of the library walked a handsome young man in well-dressed clothes. ...,
"Hi Vincent. Compared to Vincent's enthusiasm, Josia was a little flat.
"Hey, who is this?" asked Vincent, with a smile in his eyes as he saw Don beside Josia.
"Donne", although it can be easily seen that the smile is fake, but for the sake of hitchhiking, Donn still responded politely.
"Oh, hello, Donn. My name is Deck Vinson, just call me Vincent. ”
Josia: "Vincent, do you have anything to do with me?"
"It's nothing, I'm here to invite you to lunch......"
"Well, you guys talk first, I still have some things, so I won't bother. With a nod to the two of them, Don left the library.
Tang En didn't leave the academy in a hurry, he found a remote stone chair to sit down, and secretly called the killer system in his heart.
Inside the space, the originally empty hall now has rows of antique bookshelves. The old housekeeper was lying on a rattan nightchair at this time, holding a reading glass, looking at the book intently, and the small red clay teapot next to him contained wisps of tea fragrance.
Seeing Don come in, the old butler put the book on the wooden table next to him, picked up the teapot and took a sip of tea.
Feel free to sweep it, "The Bard Collection......
Tang En was suddenly confused, and he couldn't connect the old butler who was proficient in killing people with the poet.
However, he didn't have time to think about these questions now, and said urgently: "Old butler, did you hear what Josia said just now?"
"I heard, what's wrong?"
"What's wrong?" Tang En frowned and said, "Isn't this obvious, the magic and fighting spirit of Liliang are too strong, even if I am proficient in all the killing techniques, it will not work." You can't tell me to take a dagger and stab a shield-holding mage......"
The old butler put down the teapot unhurriedly and said, "I thought there was a problem, you are too underestimated about the system." When you level up, you'll see what you'll see. ”
"Really? Could it be that I also have this kind of liliang after upgrading? Uh, it can't be an internal force, right...... Anyway, as long as it's not a sunflower treasure book, you can do anything, I'm not greedy......"
The corner of the old housekeeper's eyes twitched: "You have read too many YY novels, and if you have time, you can read more poetry collections to cultivate your self-cultivation." ”
“...... Uh, have you read all these books?" Donn looked at the rows of bookshelves, the fruits of his hard work for days.
The old butler said lightly: "If you mean the text content, then you have already read it." ”
"Scared!" Tang En was startled, and instantly rolled his eyes: "You can blow it when you are old, I haven't seen you turn the pages of a poetry book for a long time, and you have finished reading so many books?"
"Every time the system enters a book, the text in it will be transmitted to me as soon as possible. But it's just words, you know, some words are not only about things, but also have deep meanings, and you need to savor them. ”
"Like a poetry book?"
"Yes. Okay, you go out and find a way to complete the task, don't disturb me reading. ”
After saying that, the old butler waved his hand and drove Don En out of the system.
