The afternoon sun shone into the reading room from the wooden grid window, and I found such a passage from the preface of this brief description of the world's universal magic: human beings learned some simple magic from the hands of the elves, gathering fire, making water, resisting the wind, and controlling the earth, a human magician, accidentally discovered the door of magic, and inadvertently broke into a world full of magical power, and he used magic to simulate a chaotic world in his body, which is said to be the original chaotic form of the universe, This small world formed a magic pool within him, and countless magical elements converged into his magic pool under his guidance.This is where human magic originated.When I reached the third page, in the upper left corner of the book was a very simple magic pattern circle, the pattern of this circle was so familiar, those simple lines crisscrossed together, it was the pattern on the fire gathering scroll I had made before."
Magic runes?"
Ying Li leaned his head over, looked at me and said softly.I nodded, my fingers swiping lightly along the route of the magic pattern on the book, and at this time, a voice suddenly came from behind me and said: "This is a wrong magic pattern array, after this magic pattern is drawn, it can't work normally at all, don't waste your mind on this!"
”I turned my head to see that it was a librarian passing by me, and casually said to me that I couldn't tell how old he was, and that by the time I wanted to ask him where else to find such books, he was already pushing the shelves away.I had to give up the urge to catch up and ask, and flipped backwards."
There's a magic test this weekend, you know?"
Ying Li asked me softly on the side.I hadn't heard Heidi talk about it, so I shook my head and said I didn't know, she shrugged her shoulders and made an expression that she knew, and then said to me, "Almost every week and weekend, the freshmen have to do a magic test, and each of us has to participate, and we need to test how much magic is in the magic pool in our body to determine our level." ”"Aren't we freshmen all first-class magic apprentices?"
I don't know much about this, so I asked.Ying Li heard me say this, and asked with a smile: "Are you sure you listened to the basic knowledge class that the teacher taught two days ago?"
”"Ah, didn't I sit next to you then?"
I swear.Ying Li wrinkled his cute little nose and said to me with a smile: "Then what did you listen to, these are all what the teacher said in class!"
”When I think back to it, I can't remember exactly what I was doing.However, in the past few days, I have been troubled by general magic, my mind is full of those general magic and beast magic, and even the time for meditation is soaked in the library to read the materials, Ying Li saw that I couldn't answer, so he said to me: "Usually the magic apprentices who have just awakened the magic pool are all first-level, but there is a slight difference in the specific capacity."
But there are also magic apprentices with special physiques, and when they awaken, the magic pool is different from others, much larger than other magic apprentices, and can even reach the magic power standard of second-level magic apprentices!
”"Oh, I see."
I said I got it."
Hey!"
Ying Li called me softly, but before he could speak, his face was a little red.Although she had a tender face, she rarely blushed before speaking after getting acquainted with me, and I asked her in surprise, "What's wrong?"
”"After the magic test on the weekend, can you take me to the house dance?"
When she said this, the flush on her face spread to the base of her ears."
AhhThis is the third time I've heard this phrase today, and it makes me feel like I'm in a dream, not so real.Although she blushed, she still bit her lower lip lightly and squeaked: "You know that I moved from the imperial capital, I don't have too many friends here, and the only ones who are usually good are Helena, Becky, and Lagertis, if two girls go to the ball together, it will be so faceless, can you take me there?"
”In fact, I have no way to resist Ying Li's request, if it weren't for Mo Mayal's invitation before, maybe I would have agreed insincerely, because I like this delicate and shy girl very much, although her appearance is not very beautiful, but it is very attractive, especially her eyes, I can always find a smile in her eyes, which makes me feel so comfortable.But what about Morayaer, the big girl who looks cheerful and lively and reveals the smell of the jungle everywhere, is actually a very sensitive person, especially when she is busy solving her own magic problems for a while, it has made Morayar feel lost, if she refuses her again this time, and takes Ying Li to participate on the day of the ball, I don't know what she will think.I hesitated slightly, and I didn't know what was going on.She smiled a little reluctantly, with some moisture in her big eyes, then blinked vigorously, smiled softly at me, and said, "I forgot to go to the magic shop in the afternoon to buy a moonstone, I'll go first!"
”With that, she got up from her seat, held the magic book, and ran out like a light fawn.I hurriedly picked up the huge magic book on the table, returned it to its original position as quickly as possible, and then ran out of the library only to find that Ying Li had run away, I ran down the path of the mountain behind the academy, and ran wildly until the back door of the academy and did not see her, just when I was about to give up, I suddenly saw the side door of the back door of the academy shaking gently, this is obviously someone just passing by, I went to ask the old man of the doorman, he looked at me with half-open eyes for a long time, and then pointed to the side door, and then said to me slowly: " Just gone!
”At this time, it is already afternoon, the scorching sun has gradually faded the fire-like light veil on the body, there is not even a trace of wind around, the bluestone paved road continues to steam outward with heat waves, leather boots on it, the soles of the feet will feel a burst of heat, the green trees on both sides of the road are shady, and those tender green leaves are also listless at this time drooping their heads.On the side of the street, a local dog was going up the river by the gutter, and when he saw movement on my side, he looked at me vigilantly.I ran out of the gate of the academy, and I saw Ying Li's familiar figure just boarding a gorgeous carriage, followed by the four best friends of the usual time, those girls went to school in the junior warrior academy, among the four of them, Helena was the most beautiful, and it was rumored that she was the most beautiful girl in the war academy.I had never seen how Ying Li had come to school, and I didn't have time to call her name when I saw that she had already lifted the curtain and entered the carriage, and the rider of the carriage waved a long whip, causing the four-headed beast with the bloodline to slowly drive away from the back streets of the academy.The entire war science is divided into a junior magic academy and a junior warrior academy, with a total of more than 3,000 students.However, the total number of magic apprentices in the primary magic academy is less than 100, and this year is perhaps the most successful year of the awakening ceremony, with almost thirty people awakening the magic pool and becoming magic apprentices.The remaining 3,000 people are all students in the Warrior Academy, and for a long time, the law of the Green Empire requires men to serve in the military before the age of twenty-five, so basically boys are sent to the academy to learn combat skills before they reach adulthood.Originally, the Warrior Academy was supposed to be a boys' world, but as a city in the north of the Grimm Empire, El City, like other cities in Sloit Province, has been at war with the barbarians on the ice and snow tundra all year round.As a result, the junior warrior academy, which was originally only attended by boys, only accounted for less than half of the male students.I don't know what kind of family Ying Li was born in, in front of her car is a kind of lion with burning limbs, her black magic caravan looks very delicate, more than half smaller than the magic caravan I used to live in the dance company on the Pai Plateau, but the pattern carved on the outer surface of the magic caravan is extremely exquisite, and I didn't pay attention to the patterns engraved on it in a hurry, at this time, the carriage has already driven far away in the direction of the north of the city.Disappointed, I leaned against the stone pillar next to the back door of the academy, and saw from a distance that the caravan had driven out of the back street and merged into the crowded main street of El City, and along the main street all the way to the north, it was obvious that it was about to leave the city.The War College is located on the only hill in the heart of Eyre, the terrain is very high, and the back entrance of the academy is also built on the mountainside, and I can clearly see Ying Li's carriage slowly leaving the city.From what I said, I knew that Ying Li came to the nobles of the imperial capital and came to El City only to participate in the magic awakening ceremony, but it seems that Lady Luck gave her a chance this time to successfully awaken the magic pool, so she decided to finish her studies at the magic academy here, and then met me again.Far away on the bluestone slab ground a shiny thing is emitting a little starlight, I curiously walked forward, only to find that there is a missing earring on the ground, only a touch of crystal green, only half the size of the little finger nail, it is an emerald gemstone patch inlaid in the golden metal base, the metal seat stretched out a thin needle, I initially thought that the metal wrapped in the gem patch is gold, only to find in the hand is very pressed, indicating that the metal density is at least ten times that of gold, I suspect that this little bit of metal is pure gold more precious than silver.These stud earrings are not new to me, the first time I met Ying Li, I saw that she only had two simple stud earrings.It's like I always have a black dragon's eye sized stone ball under my neck, which is worn on a very simple hemp rope, this is a magic core dug up from the swamp corpse king, it is a necklace made for me by Kuzi himself on the Pai Plateau, he hopes that when I am in trouble, this magic crystal hidden in the magic core can give me a little help.I held the stud earrings in my hand at this point, and I realized that I really thought things too simply.The earrings are in the palm of my hand, like a pocket magic array, this feeling is like the magic vortex in my body, there is a magic pool in the body of other magic apprentices that is not stable, but I am different from them, my body is a never-ending magic vortex, it is different from the magic pool, the magic pool in the body of ordinary magic apprentices can only gather and store mana in the case of rest or meditation, but the magic vortex in my body never stops, It's just that the rotation speed is fast when I meditate, and the rotation is a little slow usually, it has been gathering mana in my body, making me feel that my magic vortex is always expanding outward, and sometimes I even worry that the fragile magic barrier will be broken by those rapidly condensed mana, which is also a small reason why I don't like meditation.My keen sense of magic has always been my greatest reliance, and I can feel the little stud earrings gathering mana.I could even feel that on the pedestal of the pure gold gem the size of a soybean, there was a complete magic gathering array drawn on it, and I wondered who had such superb craftsmanship.Either way, it's enough to show that this jewelry is a very expensive magic accessory, and I don't know what kind of punishment Ying Li will receive if he does leave this stud earring, but this thing is definitely more expensive than I thought.I carefully put the earrings in my hand into the pocket of my arms, and then strode towards the exit of the back street of the college, I think the sooner I return it to Ying Li, she may be less sad for a while, at this time, if she knows that the earrings are missing, I don't know how anxious she will be.There are not many large buildings in the north of the city of El City, and there are only a few places to go after leaving the city, and I touched the few lonely silver bells in my pocket, it was still in the morning, Fanny forced it into my pocket, but I didn't expect to spend them at this time.Not far from the entrance to the school, there is the kind of horse-drawn carriage for people to ride, and they will stop as soon as someone beckons, just like the buses in the previous world, but the cost of this kind of carriage is much more expensive than a taxi, and it is always carpooling.I boarded a carriage heading north of the city.The driver asked me where I wanted to go.I asked him where he could go.He said the rose garden, and I said then go to the rose garden.The coachman smiled, as if the wrinkles on his face had been smoothed out by him, and he said to me happily: "Dear magician, don't worry, my carriage runs as smoothly as a magic caravan, and it will definitely make you feel worth your money." ”I looked at the not too early day, and just said lightly, "How long will it take for you to leave?"
”I think Fanny would be worried about me if I came home too late.To be continued.
