The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 66: Failed Streamer (Part 2)

As an energy storage star array, the power of "streamer" and its derivative "failed streamer" directly depends on the size and quality of the star array. The former is based on the size and the latter is determined by the medium and the astrologer's technology.

The star array carved out of 25 pounds of rock is the limit that Jonah can control.

He concentrated, activated the star array, and began to accumulate energy. The energy vortex that was invisible to the naked eye began to rotate violently, tearing the space, and sucking the powerful interstellar free energy into the rocks. The rhombic granite emits a warm red light, shining brightly in the night, like a piece of red-hot charcoal.

Sibby took a step to the side alertly, "Wow, big bomb! Brother, be careful to blow up vital organs."

Jonah wanted to fight back, but suddenly realized that his energy had receded like a tide, and the star array in his hand became a greedy bottomless pit, grabbing his little mental power with big mouths.

Jonah could not speak, move a finger, or even move his eyes to cast a glance at Sibi for help. He is like a dead wood sinking into a swamp, slowly descending silently and desperately into the dark abyss, slowly decline.

Broken. Jonah had a thought. This is not a piece of pure granite. In addition to feldspar and quartz, it must contain some mineral that is more suitable for the conduction of stars. It may be crystal, or copper or silver. In short, the star array carved on the surface of the stone is activated. The high-conductivity material inside the stone greatly improves the quality of the star array. As an equivalent exchange, the mental power required by the astrologer is greatly increased. Jonah didn't know how much it increased, but it was far beyond his ability.

"Brother?" The little grasshopper noticed his strangeness and said with concern.

The calling voice seemed so far away in my ears. Jonah didn't feel scared at this time, but felt ashamed of teacher Koshava's teaching.

"Young man, listen carefully, I don’t have time to talk about it a second time." The old man shook his messy hair and beard and told the basics of astrology at a nearly roaring volume. It’s not my responsibility, young man, to die in a backlash, don’t you hear me clearly?"

Mr. Koshava banged the copper telescope next to him with the pointer.

"Yes, sir!" The six-year-old D? Jonah II, an apprentice first-class astrologer sat upright on a small bench and replied respectfully. This is the red earth plain at eleven o’clock in the morning. On the top of the astrology tower, the sunlight is softened into a warm gauze by the translucent spherical dome, telescope, astrology, sextant and the zodiac sign half buried in the floor Exuding the smell of bronze and butter, on the small wooden table in front of Jonah, there are two books, "Basic Textbook for Apprenticeship for First-Class Astrologer: Geometry" and "Basic Textbook for Apprenticeship for First Class Astrology: Sky", but the teacher said it. The first sentence is not the content of the book.

Jona passed the astrology test when he was four years old and was selected by the seventh-level astrologer Koshava to take him back to the astrology tower. After two years of literacy and arithmetic education by a tutor in the small room at the bottom of the tower, Koshawa teacher Finally brought him to the top of the tall tower, placed a small wooden table, chairs and a small blackboard among a bunch of wonderful instruments, and then took out a round badge and pinned it on the lap of Jonah. Jonah lowered his head and saw a light blue star flower on the black badge, which was wandering around in the black pond like a naughty tadpole.

Black represents the night sky. Star flower represents the stars. The swimming blue star flower represents the astrologer apprentice whose abilities are growing, and each star flower represents a level of apprenticeship. There is no need to explain from the instructor, the six-year-old Jona fully understands the meaning of this badge.

The members of the five major guilds with respected status are transcendent from the world and are not forced by wars and famines. This is the identity mark that all mainlanders dream of. Even if they are only apprentices, they are also the highest honor. But the introverted Jonah didn't show excessive excitement. He just sat upright, waiting for his first astrology lesson.

"Listen well, I don't have time to talk about it a second time." Teacher Koshava repeated. This is actually the second time. "Before learning astrology, young man, I hope you understand astrology. In what way it exists in the world. Although they are in the five major guilds, there has always been an irreconcilable contradiction between the Astrology Association and the Anglican Church. The fundamental reason is that the Anglican Church does not recognize the legality of the star array magic. Ken admits the achievements of astrologers in astronomy, surveying, and geometry, and star array spells are considered blasphemous."

"Young people, I believe that the tutor has told you the legends of the creator and the seven main gods. You must be aware that astrologers believe in the starry sky, because the starry sky can give you power that the gods cannot.

The two major branches of astrology, the first is academic, observation, measurement, calculation, and drawing; the second is practice, which reproduces the results of observation, measurement, calculation, and drawing in the form of a star array, and draws the power of the stars To the world.

The Anglican Church recognizes the existence of the laws of the celestial bodies, but believes that the stars are the children of Luta, one of the seven main gods and the **** of fertility, and the holy spirit. Therefore, it is a serious blasphemy for astrologers to use the power of stars. This is complete shit, the energy of the interstellar line is real, just like sunlight, water, earth, and trees. There are no gods here, only the vast starry sky. Humans should be full of awe and try to understand, rather than explain it with supernatural power. , Deceive yourself! "

"You are too young to understand, but it doesn't matter, you will understand one day, and thank me again the day you understand.

Listen now, I, Koshava, the seventh-level astrologer, is a practicalist who advocates applying what I have learned. The research on the balanced star array made me promoted to the seventh-level astrologer at a young age, but I tried to fly. The actions of the sky are regarded by the Anglican Church as a great disrespect to the creator. The two cardinals of the Anglican Church jointly put pressure on the Association of Astrologers. The association is at a critical juncture in the struggle between the academic and practical factions, which is out of date. I was treated as a victim and exiled far to the Western Continent, which lacked academic scope. Even if I and my old man Henry soon produced the unprecedented floating machine "Cripple Henry" in the entire continent, it would not be able to change the will of those in power in the association, my I've been tied to this red soil plain where birds don't lay eggs all my life. In a blink of an eye, I can't go anywhere. "

"As for you, young man, I hope you inherit my mantle and become the master of the star array, an astrologer who truly possesses the energy of the starry sky. The power of the starry sky is so vast that it cannot be guessed, but only what you hold in your hand is real .Before the course starts, be sure to remember the following paragraph:"

"Mental power is the foundation for the survival of practical astrologers, and it is also the core of all spell-casting professions.

People’s mental power is divided into strong and weak points, which cannot be accurately measured, but it can be roughly estimated through many methods, and the measurement method will be explained to you later.

You can think of your mental power as a pond. When manipulating the star array, you need to pump some water from the pond for exchange. The more complex, advanced, and larger the star array, the more water will be pumped away. Meditation and sleep will restore water volume, and the size of the pond will expand due to mental exercise.

Note: If you do not control the star array beyond your own level and need to draw 20,000 liters of water from a pond with a capacity of 10,000 liters, then it is not only the water of mental power that will be pumped out, the star array Will drain your soul energy, your blood, and your life. This fatal phenomenon is called star array backlash. "

"Stay curious, but don't let curiosity kill you! There are countless astrologers who have died in the backlash of the star array, even our first astrology teacher Gilberto Gilbernaion, unfortunately died in the space-time star array. The backlash, and also the astrology tower that was sucked away by the star array was the astrology tower that contained all the ancient secrets of astrology.

The apprentices of astrologers who have lost their guides can only discover the mystery of astrology from the words left by their instructors, and it has slowly developed to this day, and all the information on the space-time star array, which represents the highest achievement of star array research in the legend, follows early. The astrological tower named "Anglicia" disappeared in the turbulence of time and space. ——If you grow up in the future and have the opportunity to take a look at the Southern Continent, you might as well go to the site of the Anicia Astrology Tower on the northwest border of the Tocharian Empire. "

"So, do you understand what I want to express?" Teacher Koshava tapped the telescope with the pointer, making a clanging sound.

"Don't overpower yourself." Jonah replied cautiously.

"Very good. Don't touch a star formation that is beyond your own strength. This is the first lesson I want to say. Now, roll downstairs and set the table, young man." Teacher Koshava dropped his teaching whip with uninteresting interest. , Walked towards the dome roof by himself.

Jonathan closed the two textbooks. He doesn't really understand what the teacher said, but at least he understands that astrology is a dangerous industry, and even the supreme first-generation teachers set themselves on fire. ——The more I think about it, the more scary I feel.

"Brother, what's the matter with you? Talk?" The distant call sounded in my ears. Jonah said sorry to the teacher in the dark, and then fell into the deep darkness without a trace of light.
