Law of the Devil Chapter 18: [A different path]
Chapter 18 [A Different Way]
Outside the castle's dungeon, Du Wei met the first female knight Ruolin, whom her Majesty had recruited. Since coming to this castle, Ruolin took the initiative to take care of the captive of the magician.
If Ruolin does this, after all, the magician used to be her companion. Although she was loyal to Du Wei, she still had to remember some old love. Although this magician was also attracted by his beauty at first, and everyone's business was only a few days. Although Ruo Lin didn't dare to let this guy secretly go against Du Wei's intentions, but she took care of him personally-so that she could at least take care of this former companion, and it was a bit of affection.
At least after arriving here last night, under the care of Ruolin, this magician was able to eat a full meal. Although he was not allowed to sleep, meditation was absolutely impossible. Ruo Lin's two obediences, the savage bull warrior and archer, took turns guarding the magician to prevent him from having the chance to recover magic.
When Du Wei came to the dungeon, he was a little bit uncomfortable with the moist and smelly smell in the dungeon.
Ruo Lin, in a knight costume, touched Du Wei's eyes! This long-legged girl originally had a charming and charming face, but now she probably made some changes in her dress, shortened her hair, tied a ribbon on her forehead, and modified her eyebrows, which reduced some softness. , But three points more British gas.
Especially after wearing the knight costume, the whole person looks a lot more solemn-although the original short skirt is not worn, the plump and beautiful long legs are not exposed again. However, with a slender sword, coupled with the lightweight knight breastplate of the upper body, it is quite a bit of knightly posture.
"Dear Master." Seeing Du Wei walking into the dungeon, Ruo Lin immediately greeted: "You are ..."
"I'll see my captives." Du Wei's face was cold, and he was in a bad mood. He glanced at Ruolin: "Do you stay here all night?"
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Ruo Lin's face: "Master, this guy in it is my former companion after all, I think ..."
"Are you asking?" Du Wei shook his head: "You don't have to, I didn't want to embarrass him. As long as he obediently answers me a few questions, I will let him go immediately."
After speaking, Du Wei walked past Ruolin's side, leaving a sentence: "I and him alone are a touch, all of you are waiting outside and you are not allowed to come in casually."
The room where the wizard was originally was the largest in the dungeon in the castle. When Du Wei came in, the wizard was pale and his eyes were almost open.
Although the magical power of the magician is strong, after all, I had a fight with everyone in the tavern during the previous trip, and also performed magic, which took a lot of mental power, and was caught later, and has been Without the opportunity to meditate and restore the exhausted mental energy, I can't sleep for the past two days, and I can't support it at this moment.
With being locked in this dungeon, one night came, and every time my eyes were closed, a bucket of cold water poured down immediately. Although Ruolin was kind to him, Ruolin's two men were not at all polite.
In the small adventure team, the wild cow warrior and archer looked at this magician very disgustingly, because the magician was attracted by the beauty of Ruo Lin, so he was often attracted by the wild cow warrior and The archer is toothless. Mutual relations have also been troubled.
At this moment, as the little noble walked into the dungeon room, the magician felt that he was about to collapse. There was no chain on him, anyway, a magician who had lost his magic power was not as strong as an ordinary person. It was just that the dungeon was damp and damp, and he didn't know how many buckets of water had been poured, and his lips were white. When Dewey walked in, the magician was sitting on a stone bed with his knees next to the wild cow warrior. He also said to himself, "Hey, don't close your eyes! Otherwise, I will pour you again with water! This luminous is to lift water, I have run many times!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and saw Du Wei coming in. He closed his mouth immediately, Du Wei waved his hand, motioned him out, and walked to the magician: "How? Dear mage. Everything here. Are you okay? "
Okay? Do I look "OK"? The mage's belly was defamated, but a pleading expression appeared on his face: "Sir, why do you have to be so embarrassed to be a noble like you? You are the eldest son of the Earl of the Rolling Family. A magician, then in the future, I am afraid that your family will have a hard time making friends with magicians! "
Want to threaten me again?
Du Wei shook his mouth: "Oh, right? Then if a little first-level magician actually masters instantaneous spells, what will happen?"
The wizard's face was pale, and there was a hint of panic in his eyes.
The consequences?
The consequences are simple! It is that if other magicians learn such news, then he will soon become the common prey of magicians of the entire continent! Any magician is eager to learn the top skills of instantaneous surgery! And when a little first-level magician can master this kind of ability ... as a result, do you need to ask?
It's like a three-year-old child, with no defense at all, but he has hundreds of millions of dollars on his body!
"Speak it out." Du Wei smiled: "In fact, I know that your so-called instantaneous operation is not a real instantaneous operation. You must have used some speculative methods to achieve this. , Right? I'm not a magician, even if you tell me, there is no loss to you. I just want to satisfy my curiosity.
The magician lowered his head, and there was a hint of struggle on his face.
"What more hesitation?" Du Wei sighed. "You are just a first-level magician. Although in this world, magicians are rare and respected, they are only limited to those intermediate ones. The above magician. The lowest level of magician you like, even if I kill you here, or shut you here for a lifetime, I am afraid no one will manage it. Even if it is the magic society, it will not be A humble first-class magician who offends a great aristocracy, right? "
"You ..." The magician's eyes finally loosened, his psychological defense began to break, and he bit his lips hard: "You ... if I tell you, you must swear not to say anything. Because ... this It's about my magician status! "
"Yes, absolutely." Du Wei immediately raised his hand and swore: "I Du Wei Luo Lin swears here, I will remember everything you say to me today, and will not re-export Tell others. Otherwise, let the goddess of light punish me! "
"..." The magician's expression was a little complicated. A guilty conscience appeared in his eyes, and then his lips wriggled a few times: "I ... Actually, I'm just a magic apprentice."
"... What?" Du Wei froze: "What do you mean?"
"I ..." The magician seemed to have worked hard to say it: "I said, in fact, I am only a magic apprentice, and my true magic strength is only the level of a magic apprentice. And I The qualification of the first-level magician was tricked by some means. "
"Cheat?" Du Wei began to feel a little tempted!
Did you qualify as a magician?
According to Du Wei, the assessment of the Chinese conjurer is not easy to pass tricks! Wouldn't it be a joke if the qualification of a magician could be easily deceived?
"I have been learning magic since I was a child. My master is a junior magician. He thinks I have magical talents and accepted me as an apprentice. When I was thirteen, I became a magic apprentice ... It's not difficult. "The magician's tone is resentful:" The real magician on the continent is only a few hundred people, but there are thousands of people who are qualified as magic apprentices. Unfortunately, the path to becoming a true magician is too much. It ’s hard. Most magical apprentices ca n’t pass the first-level assessment even if they work hard. They can only stay at the level of magical apprentices. And I ... is one of these poor worms.
"Every magician will receive several apprentices, but the magician himself knows that not all of these apprentices can become magicians, and it is likely that no magic will be taught in a lifetime. Disciple comes. But every magician on the continent will still recruit a lot of apprentices. Because ... a person with the identity of a magician is so noble and awe-inspiring. How can such a person lack identity and followers? So, Every magician brings a varying number of magical apprentices. Most of these apprentices are dreaming about magic, but as a result, only a few people can realize their dreams. The most abhorrent is many magicians. They clearly know that these magic apprentices are not possible to become magicians, but they do not tell them ... because the magicians need obedient apprentices around them, some people help them with magic experiments, others help them to be their assistants, and even It seems that servants ... And, such servants don't need them to spend even a gold coin!
This is how I experienced it. When I was thirteen, I met my master. He told me that I was talented, and then took me away from home. He said that he wanted to teach me to be a great magician. . I followed him with infinite hope, but unfortunately ... I later discovered that this was simply an impossible dream. My master has a dozen disciples, each of whom passed the assessment of a magic apprentice. Master just uses us as free servants and free assistants.
He will still deceive us with false lies, but he knows that many of these disciples are impossible to become magicians in their lifetime. He knows! But he just didn't say it!
I've been a magic apprentice for ten years, and finally found that I didn't have talent in this area at all. I have been a little stronger than ordinary people since I was a child, and I can feel a little natural power ... but this is the limit. My talent is limited.
Later, I had no choice but to ... study magic pharmacy. "
Magic Pharmacy?
Du Wei's eyes light up!
This guy's experience is very similar to himself!
However, he couldn't even pass the assessment of the lowest magic apprentice ... Du Wei smiled bitterly.
Actually, even Du Wei himself didn't know that the situation was not what he thought.
Magicians are a strange group. Most magicians are lonely and proud by nature. They consider themselves to be standing above all beings. They are people who can call the wind and rain and can use the power of gods. In the eyes of most magicians, the so-called multitude of beings are nothing but ants that can be used conveniently.
Many magic apprentices are actually not as good as Dewey! But the magician needs to be accompanied. Although the magician has money, he can't spend money to solicit servants like ordinary nobles-what is it like!
As a sacred magician, as a mysterious magician, the servants around you naturally need to have the status of magic apprentice! How can you use ordinary people?
However, there are few people with magic talent. So most magicians, in order to get some magical apprentices around them, even lower the bar to recruit magical apprentices! Obviously, there are some talented people, even if they are only slightly stronger than ordinary people, they will be accepted by the magician with the temptation to "teach you to be a magician".
Afterwards ... these people who are not talented enough to be magicians are waiting for their teachers to be cheap labor for a lifetime!
In this situation, the assessment of magic apprentices on the mainland is actually very confusing! Levels are also uneven.
However, the last time that Du Wei experienced during the imperial capital was conducted according to true strict standards! Because ... Mage Clark, dare not fool the No. 2 figure of the Imperial Army, the eldest son of the owner of the Rollin family!
Because of Dewey's identity, Mage Clark did not dare to cheat him into cheap labor.
Otherwise, if Dewey is an ordinary person ... then that day, Master Clark saw that Dewey had such a mental power that he had exceeded ordinary people.
Even if he knew that Dewey had no magical talent, Clark would definitely accept him as an apprentice! Because, having a magical apprentice with outstanding magical power is around, there will be a lot of convenience when doing magic experiments by yourself in the future.
In fact, many magicians on the mainland do this. If Dewey is not the earliest son of the Earl, I'm afraid he will be deceived, and then dream of becoming a magician, cheap labor as a magician, even waste his life and delay his future.
"It was a very accidental situation that I learned the fact that my teacher had long known that I would never be a magician." The captive voice carried a hint of bitterness: "Even in him When he took me away from home, he already knew this! However, he saw that my magic talent was good, and he felt that I had a free servant around me, and it would be more convenient for him to do magic experiments in the future. . Many disciples under the teacher's door are the same as me. Some of them are very magical, and some are very inductive. But they all have major flaws, but they are woven into a dream and stayed in the teacher ’s. Around, wasting their lives! "
"... What then?" Du Wei sighed.
"Like what I said just now ... After I knew the facts, at first I was angry, and then ... I decided to change my destiny. Since I can't learn real magic, then ... I decided to study Magic Pharmacy. "The captive of the magician sighed." Because, the magic pharmacist is also a type of magician that is explicitly recognized by the Magic Society. Although ... this view is considered ridiculous by most people, although most Everyone feels that a magic pharmacist cannot be considered a true magician at all. "
"... What then?" Du Wei felt his heartbeat beating!
Did ... this guy ...
He, like himself, has no magic talent! But he is now a magician! Moreover, he was in the tavern, but he was really using magic!
Since he is a talented person, he doesn't know how to learn magic in the end ... So, as long as he can tell how to do it ... Then, maybe he can!
If you can find a way to learn magic, then ...
Some of the astrology left by Semel in the secret room of the castle, and the magic of the stars that Semel has studied throughout her life, can you not learn it? !!
"Can you become a magician if you are proficient in magic pharmacy?" Du Wei looked at the captive: "But as far as I know, the qualifications of the Magic Society are different from those of other magicians. . "
On the mainland, there are ten levels for real magicians. Every time you pass the first level exam, the difficulty will increase a lot! Therefore, the higher the level of the magician, the more powerful they are.
However, the assessment of a magic pharmacist, which is also called "a type of magician", is much simpler.
Even if it is too simple, it will make you feel perfunctory!
The assessment of magic pharmacists is not graded!
Just one level!
As long as you pass the assessment! You are the magic pharmacist! Then the Academy of Magic will also give you a badge, which symbolizes the official recognition that you are a magician.
Although this recognition is not recognized by most people.
Moreover, even the Academy of Magic itself issued badges with a certain "differential treatment"!
The magic pharmacist is awarded a bronze round badge, the workmanship is very simple, and ... there is no magic anti-counterfeiting spell.
Perhaps, the Magic Society knows that no one is interested in posing as a profession that few people can afford.
A magic pharmacist, commonly known as a poison pharmacist, has a lower social status than an ordinary physician.
The real magician, even if it is a first-level, the badge is a silver one! The first-level magician is a silver leaf badge.
Of course, Du Wei will not forget that during the fierce battle in the tavern that day, he captured a genuine silver leaf badge from this magician captive!
In other words, he did not pass the assessment of the magic pharmacist! But the assessment of the real magician! !!
How did he do it?
Learning magic seems to be a dream that has already been shattered. At this moment, I hope to resurrect in Du Wei's heart!
"My talent is excellent in magical power and natural mental strength is better than ordinary people. If it is an ordinary person, it is only manifested as more energy than ordinary people, not easy to fatigue, etc ... but I lack Induction. No matter how I meditate or how hard I try, at first, I can't sense even a wave of natural force. "The captive slowly said," Later, after I studied magic pharmacy for ten years, Suddenly, I had a question ... what is the so-called power of nature? The teacher told me that it is everything! It is everything in this world! It is wind, fire, water, even a little bit of detail. But This statement is still too vague. I have an idea in my heart ... if, I can understand, what is the so-called 'natural force', then maybe I still have hope. "
Du Wei listened quietly, and at the same time he carefully pondered the words of this guy.
"For example, fire-based magic. A magician can use fire elements in the natural world through spells, and then use magic to change the flame! In magic pharmacy, there are a dozen ways to use The potions come to produce flames! For example, the simplest one ... "At this point, the magician captive glanced at Du Wei:" I said this, do you understand? "
"Please go on, I can understand." Du Wei smiled, "I have read some books on magic pharmacy."
"Okay." The magician continued: "In magic pharmacy, there are more than a dozen methods that can achieve the same basic principles as fire magic ... for making fire! For example, the most basic one, You can burn it with a powder ground from a firephos grass! Then I was thinking ... the firephos grass can make a fire, and the magician's fire magic can also make a fire. Does the firephos grass contain the so-called Magic element in the power of nature? Or, there is something in the fire phosphorus grass, which is the magic element of the fire system? "
Du Wei felt as if he had thought of something, but he couldn't catch it for a while.
I heard the captive of the magician continue: "I found another subtle thing. All magic spells! I mean all! Although the power of spells is small and powerful. Take fire magic as an example, The simplest fireball technique is the same as the legendary 'Burning Flame City' forbidden spell! Although the power is countless times worse, in fact, the principle is the same! Both use flames Go to burn! But ... Subtle things come ... All magical magic can also be done by magic pharmacy! For example, fire magic, although pharmacy cannot get the kind of 'flame burnt city' Large-scale powerful forbidden spell-level power, but the principle of firing is the same! For example, wind magic, water magic, etc ... All the magic can be done by pharmacy! Although it can only be done To the simplest basic principles, but they can do it! Why is this? Maybe ... I was thinking, maybe, the precious raw materials of pharmacy actually contain the so-called magic of various departments' Magic element '! No Why? "
A proud expression appeared on the captive's face: "Since I can't extract the magic elements of nature by meditation ... Then I use the method of a pharmacist to extract magic elements from the potions !! "
