wandering fairy

In the Arcane Academy of Giffen City, many low-level mages gathered in an open green field, and an arcane lecture for the public was about to begin.There are also various small colored flags hanging above and on both sides of the podium, some of which are actually graffiti!It constitutes an interesting scene full of life.

It seems that these young students are quite active.

According to Bain Harley, this kind of lectures are held every year in general Arcane Academy. These lectures are only aimed at a single magic each time and are divided into three lecture series: apprentice level, official level and master level. .Apprentice-level spell lectures are only for arcane spells of Tier 1 to Tier 3; formal-level speeches are for Tier 4 to Tier 7 arcane spells; and master-level speeches are all arcane spells of Tier 9 to Tier 3.These speeches are actually a special kind of exchange meeting, and the lecturers may be hosted by the school's teachers, or may be specially invited guests from outside the school.Generally speaking, the lectures given by school teachers are mainly for in-depth explanations and explanations of the arcane courses they teach in the academy. Of course, the spells involved in these lectures are generally classified as "elementary spell series", that is, those of level [-] and below. content.As for the speeches of higher ranks, they often imply a kind of academic "declaration of war", swearing to the outside world about the understanding of spells by one's own academy or faction.

Of course, this elementary spell lecture has nothing to do with those advanced things.For Dongzi and Bernhard, the real goal was to find a woman who was easy to have children.The two of them walked around the crowd like they were walking in a market, searching for beautiful women.Dongzi suddenly felt like a human trafficker!

The result is quite disappointing, basically no one meets the requirements.On the way back to the mansion from the disappointed Bernhard, Dongzi suddenly saw a commotion in the market.I heard that someone was secretly selling magic equipment at a low price and was caught.

The merchants at the market gloated and said, "I guess the guy who sold it privately is a novice, and he doesn't know the methods of Giffen City at all. Maybe the buyer is someone from Giffen City pretending to be!"

A fat businessman said with a smile: "This guy is going to be in bad luck! Once caught, he will be fined the same, or even a middle-level mage will be imprisoned to death."

Then someone ran towards Xiaobu from the noisy place, and laughed loudly: "I saw another idiot! It's still an old idiot! I heard that the magic equipment he sold was worth 500 gold coins, but the buyer asked for 3000 Gold coins, that old idiot was caught while he was still bargaining. Now he will be fined 3000 gold coins in reverse. Hahahaha I heard that he is still an official mage."

The businessmen laughed even more happily: "These guys always look down on us and put on airs of aloofness every day. Now they are being cleaned up by their own people. It's so satisfying. Hahahaha. I invite the three of you to have a drink tonight." A glass of wine."

Dongzi thought as he walked: It seems that the contradictions between these social classes are still very deep, but they are only covered up by temporary interests.But this has nothing to do with me.Today, after listening to Bernhard Harley's lecture on the principles and main points of matter and energy conversion.Suddenly realized, now I just want to find a secluded place as an experiment.

He hurried all the way out of the market, and then turned into a puff of smoke and flew directly to the distant suburbs.This spell is based on a gasified form, turning one's body into a gaseous state and then shaping it into a wisp of smoke with the supernatural power of Lei Fa.Originally, it was just for fun to pretend to be a fairy, turning clouds into fire, but after the cooperation of the two, not only the appearance changed drastically, but also the speed tripled!Flying in the air as fast as a galloping horse, flying over the green fields in the spring breeze, it is really like a small plane touring mountains and rivers, so uncomfortable.

After coming to an open hill that is not far from Giffen City, you can see lush grass and sparse green trees.Occasionally, deer and birds move back and forth.It's a nice place with no one.Then he fell to the ground and regained his human form, and then slapped a large bluestone in the distance that was as tall as a person.

A ferocious bright blue lightning burst out of his hand and struck the big bluestone. The stone, which was not afraid of lightning, made a muffled "bang", as if it had been hit hard by a sledgehammer, and burst into several pieces!

Dongzi smiled and nodded, then raised his hand to an ancient tree as thick as a vat next to it, and a sharp lightning shot out, hitting a thicker branch.As soon as the branch hit the lightning, it immediately flashed a red light, and the part it touched immediately turned into fly ash and scattered.And the part that didn't touch is half intact!

His two strikes are not spells such as "serial lightning", but supernatural lightning and lightning launched with the Thunder God seal, and then use the learned elements to control knowledge and change its internal characteristics.Therefore, the first strike looks like lightning, but in fact it transforms lightning into power energy; the second strike is transformed into flames.The effects of these two strokes seem to be the same as those of the original "Lightning Whip", but the principle of activation is completely different. The electric whip is based on its own true power, and it is made of lightning. The current palm thunder is completely composed of lightning. .It can only be done after having a certain understanding of the application of Leifa in this world.

Although it is far from Bain Harley's ability to arbitrarily convert elements, his original goal was to find a new operation mode of the inner and outer five elements with the help of Leifa research, and now he has finally achieved something.So he slowly returned to the mansion contentedly.While admiring the scenery of the green grass and tender leaves, at the same time, you are contentedly practicing the mysterious exercises.

In this way, he returned to the mansion at a relatively slow speed, but heard several women talking in Daniela's room, and listened carefully, one of them was Daniela's younger sister, and the other was actually Lelin!

Out of curiosity, he walked lightly back to his room.Sitting on the bed again, secretly using the world's audio-visual skills to eavesdrop on the conversation of the three women.

First came Danila's voice with a hint of despair: "I just said he was bragging. He also said that his classmates gave him money. This time, it's a good thing. I was caught selling magic tools at a low price without permission! I will be fined 3000 gold coins at once. Tell me where to get it? What dream of family rejuvenation is there, and now it is the debt of the boss of Desmond and the fine of Giffen City, and it really killed myself!" .

Her younger sister asked suspiciously: "But where did father get the magic tools? If there are these things at home, why didn't he take them out and sell them before? He has to wait until he owes a whole body of debts and disaster strikes." In a hurry to sell it?"

Daniela's words were full of resentment: "I heard him say in the prison just now that our grandfather buried them in a nearby field. Back then, seeing that his family was going downhill, he buried a few better magic tools. It will be used in case of urgent need for money in the future, or left to gifted descendants. He also cleverly used some riddles to cover up the buried location, so as to prevent unscrupulous descendants from digging them up and selling them. My father only solved it two months ago. The one who asked the riddle originally thought that he could obtain some high-quality good things. When he dug it up, he saw that it was a medium-functioning appliance. And because of the long time, the effectiveness has been reduced a lot. He had to sell it at a low price. But The picket mages in Giffen City insisted that he deliberately bought and sold at a low price, disrupted business order, and harmed the rights and interests of mages. They locked him up. To put it bluntly, they didn’t want to make some money so that they could have funds to continue Learning arcane art? I have seen through it, saying that mages are the guardians of human beings and the pillars of human society. Pooh! They are all a bunch of vampires!" She sobbed softly while talking, completely forgetting that she was also a mage.

"Sister, don't cry, there is always a way. Why don't you sell this house first." Daniela's sister comforted in a low voice: "Or let me talk to the boss first, use this mansion to Settle part of the debt, don't use the power of that contract casually. Jeleka is working under him, maybe we can accommodate it."

Daniela asked sadly: "Didn't you say that Boss Desmond will leave in two weeks? And he forced his father to pay the debt when it was due, otherwise. How could he be willing?"

Le Lin next to him asked aloud: "Otherwise what? What is the contract your father signed? I listen to you. It seems to have a terrifying power?"

These days, Lelin and the two of them have a good relationship, and they often help coax the children.Invisibly narrowing the relationship between each other, Danila hesitated for a moment and then said in a dazed way: "It's come to this point, so I won't hide it from you. My father's wish has always been to become a high-ranking mage, but his talent is really high." Very limited, just like me, has always been limited to second-level arcane skills and could not improve. Later, in order to learn higher arcane skills, he first sold his ancestral property and family things, and then borrowed money everywhere, but no matter how hard he tried I just couldn’t get in. In the end, no one was willing to lend him any money! He was stubborn. So I learned from Mr. Desmond, the boss of my brother-in-law Geleka. He told me swearingly that he He has given up his dream of becoming an advanced mage, but the only dream in his life is to become an official mage who has mastered the third-order arcane arts. At that time, he will give up studying arcane arts and no longer bring burdens to his family. Saying that I already have a good foundation, and that I can master Tier 3 arcane arts in less than a year. Who knows, I am just bragging! This money is borrowed for four years, and the loan is renewed every year. Although I do The money from the business is enough to live a life of a little rich, but he messed it up so much that all the money he earns every year is used to pay interest! That's why the family is so dilapidated. Just like this, there are still 3 gold coins Debt. And that contract, that contract was justly passed by the devil! Once the debt cannot be repaid or the contract is torn up at the due date, then the devil who made this contract will take away the soul of the person concerned. My father only has two weeks to live It's gone" and started to cry.

Dongzi sighed secretly in his heart, thinking that she would be indifferent to his life and death because of her resentment towards her father.Who knows that at the last moment, they still can't let go of the family relationship.It seems that he is also strong on the outside and soft on the inside, and his feelings for his father are still quite deep.

Le Lin hurriedly asked: "There is such a thing in such a big city? Then why don't the servants of the Earth Mother Temple and other righteous gods take care of it?" She used to live underground, thinking that only drows could Will have close contact with the devil, who knows in broad daylight.There is also such a thing in the place where mages gather!Then he asked with righteous indignation: "Even if they don't care, will the mages of Jifen City let them run amok under their feet?"

Daniela restrained her crying and said, "Sister, you are too kind. How many mages in Giffen City have never flirted with the devil? Just the middle-level mages I know. At least half of them have directly or indirectly I have dealt with the devil thoroughly! Even Boss Desmond has contracts with several middle-level mages! Because the cost of learning and researching arcane arts is too high, and sometimes a huge amount of money is needed when researching and learning reaches a critical moment. But I happen to have no money, so I can only find someone to borrow money. Because these researches and studies are very risky, and if they fail, they will lose everything, so ordinary people are unwilling to lend money to mages. Unless you are a rich man , big aristocrats, otherwise you can only find a lender like Boss Desmond. But they are all backed by devils, big and small." She sighed for a long time, and continued: "Unless Your talent is too high, just like the Navia mage in Giffen City, who studied very smoothly all the way, and mastered the sixth-level arcane art at a young age. Otherwise, no one would be an exception. As for the servants of the kind gods. They How dare they act recklessly? These moneylenders have tied themselves and the fate of those mages tightly through the fair contracts made by the devil. If they die, everyone will die together, so those mages will secretly protect the lenders, or give protective spells to protect them. Avoid the detection of camp magic. Without special background and power support, those good priests or paladins would not dare to do it."

Le Lin was very surprised, and said a little anxiously: "The mage actually protects these guys who entrap me? Are they crazy?"

Daniela's sister replied: "Of course they are not crazy, and they know they are in a trap, but you have to know how tempting it is to become a middle-level mage and a high-level mage! A middle-level mage has no territory but has the same Barons and viscounts are quite privileged. A high-level mage not only has privileges, but also has great wealth. Some people are richer than the king of a small country, and their status is higher than that of the duke of a large country. Besides, nobility or kings are all based on blood, The path of a mage only depends on ability and not on blood. How many people squeeze their heads to climb up. You see, those nobles can make heinous plots, rebellions, assassinations, and riots in order to fight for power, not to mention these competitions More intense mages? It’s an open secret to communicate with devils. Not only is this the case in Jifen City, but also the Arcane Federation and the Golden Magic Rune Federation. Only the Three Towers Demon Ring Federation has a better atmosphere. Resolutely draw a clean line from the devil."

Le Lin hesitated and asked: "What if it fails? The souls of these mages will also be taken away by the devil?"

Daniela's sister said: "This is usually the case, but if the mage has a powerful friend to help, he can also avoid disaster. It depends on how powerful the devil who made the contract is. I heard from my husband. Generally, it is violated. The contracted people will be cursed with strong blood, and their souls will be aroused alive. If the curse fails, the devil will manifest himself. Even if you kill its clone in the main material plane, it will still be with the help of lenders or other people He will come down again, and then find a chance to kill you. But if you are too powerful, then he can't help it."

Le Lin said: "That is to say, as long as you are strong enough, you can take the devil's account?"

Daniela's younger sister sadly replied: "Yes. I've heard that some people who also practice arcane and divine arts have reneged. But these are very few people, and how could our father be the opponent of the devil? ? I heard that a high-ranking mage who died suddenly in Giffen City eight years ago was killed by the backstage devil of Boss Desmond!"

At this time, Daniela suddenly said firmly: "If it's really not possible, I'll marry that country viscount! At least I can pay off Boss Desmond's debt, so that that bastard old man won't die anyway." The cry was very sad.

The other two in the room fell silent.Only the weeping and whimpering continued.

After a long time, the baby girl woke up and started yelling: "Cat cat cat cat cat"

At night, Dong Zijia was sitting on the bed and concentrating on practicing, when he was suddenly awakened by a burst of thought from Budbe, and he went out of the samadhi to have a look.It turned out that it was Le Lin who sneaked in.

Budbe, who was created, yelled at her a few times in displeasure.Because when Dongzi entered meditation, there was a subtle connection between the two.Therefore, the true power in its body will also be slightly activated, and it will get a little benefit.Naturally unhappy to be interrupted now.

Le Lincai didn't take her dissatisfaction seriously at all, and said directly to Dongzi: "Teacher, Danila is very pitiful, can you help her?"

Dongzi pretended to be stupid: "Poor? I think she makes a lot of money every day. How can she be pitiful?"

Le Lin pouted and said, "Don't pretend, I know you overheard our conversation today."

Dong Zi was surprised: "How did you know?" He had never mentioned the technique of "world audio-visual" to her, so how could she know that he was eavesdropping?

Le Lin smiled lightly: "Didn't you teach me the relationship between the principle and the strengthening of internal organs? And there is a method to strengthen the perception ability with the changes in the Jiuzhuan Yimai **, I just two days ago After trying it, you can faintly hear other people’s conversations while sitting in the room. I think your ability is greater than mine, so you must be able to hear clearly than me.”

It turns out that it is not the art of seeing and hearing, but relying on hearing.Just as Dongzi relaxed, he suddenly realized something was wrong. Lelin's alchemy was still shallow, and she only practiced the inferior "Nine Turns Yimai**". own level?So he ordered her to come over, and used his own hand to touch the Xiaguan point on her cheek, to feel the structure of her ear with real strength.

This observation actually found that her ear is different from ordinary people in terms of subtle structure, and its function is similar to that of a beast because of the different direction of alchemy transformation!In other words, her ear structure had already changed before she practiced alchemy, beyond the scope of ordinary people, and then it was improved by alchemy, so she had this ability.

This change is similar to a genetic mutation.Dongzi asked Lelin suspiciously: "Did your hearing improve when your body became violent?"

Le Lin nodded and said: "Of course, everyone is like this. Not only the sense of hearing, but also the sense of sight and smell will be improved. But the improvement is not large, and it is useless."

Dongzi was secretly shocked. If it was a genetic mutation, it should be a special case. How could everyone be like this?Isn't the physical body of this world completely controlled by genes?

Thinking of this, Dongzi suddenly felt his mind broaden: If it is not controlled by genes, then the physical characteristics of this world are fundamentally different from those of the earth. Similar to Earth?Its essence may not be the same?

Maybe this world is not made up of physical particles like atoms and molecules?

So should it be different when transforming the body with the Nine Turns Mysterious Technique?Perhaps copying the old method may not be suitable, but where can the new method be found?

For a while, all the questions and associations came flooding in. He was still thinking carefully, but Lelin asked again: "Why don't you lend some money to Sister Daniela? You can still get 5000 gold coins."

Dongzi waved his hand and said, "Anyone who wants to borrow money should borrow it himself. I'm not a money-spreader, so there's no reason to borrow as soon as I say it. What's more, 5000 gold coins are enough for a poor family to spend most of their lives. She borrowed money." What do you bring back to me when you go? Besides, we are only living here temporarily, and we may leave in a few months, and we don’t know when we can come back. Should we let her live on her debts for the rest of her life?"

"Wealth-spreading boy?" Lelin's tone was slightly surprised: "This statement is quite new. Either you help Sister Daniela kill that devil"

Dongzi quickly waved his hand and said: "Stop! Stop! Stop!! Whoever wants to kill the devil should kill it himself, don't pull me! Didn't you listen to them? Even the high-level mages have been killed, and I have no equipment. What can a Druid of a higher rank do? Don’t mention it again! Anyway, there is no free lunch in the world, and I won’t borrow money unless she offers something suitable herself.”

Le Lin suddenly said happily: "Why don't you let her sell herself to be your servant! She is still a third-level mage, much better than Grimm."
