In The DC World With Marvel Chat Group Chapter 1480: Bird and return (25)
Konstantin's eyes widened. He glanced at Schiller first, then at Bruce, then at Schiller again, and said, "This is how you teach? No wonder you tortured each other for four years , if my teacher asks me to memorize these things within three hours, then I will definitely..."
Before he finished speaking, Bruce stepped forward, flipped through the three books with a calm face, nodded and said: "Now I have some problems with my memory system, and the upload and download speeds have been affected. , so it may be necessary to read them twice before entering them, and it is enough to read them once in normal times.”
"Go." Schiller pointed to the tables and chairs by the window of the bookstore with his cane, then looked at Constantine and said, "Take me to your warehouse. Interested."
Konstantin stretched his neck and took a look at Bruce, and found that he was really sitting at the table and began to read seriously. He shook his head, sighed, and led Schiller into the warehouse.
Two hours later, it was completely dark, Schiller came out from the upstairs study room, Konstantin followed behind him dejectedly, Schiller went down the stairs, and he chased after him Hand said: "...How can there be so many reasons? The magic world is a ritual of word of mouth. I will do what others do. How can I know why?"
"Besides, I already belong to a very knowledgeable and talented magician in the magic world. I know almost every demon and angel's habits. Even an archmage like Andrew once called me to consult some partial gods Weakness."
"And then you don't even know the origin of the same symbols that appear in the four rituals," Schiller pointed out.
Konstantin sighed deeply, he walked down the stairs holding the handrail and said: "You can understand it as an inherent noun in mystic semiotics, just like nouns in English, we just use it, without having to understand it.”
"Isn't it better to use it after understanding it?"
"No." Constantine denied. He walked up to Schiller, looked into his eyes and said, "The power of magic is borrowed. As long as someone is willing to borrow your power, a three-year-old child can also cast it." Magic."
"Have you ever thought that this might be a trap of the gods?" Schiller put one hand on the table in front of the bookshelf and said, "Gods and demons exist in a completely different form from humans. It can perfectly fit the human body, what is certain is that this cannot be their original power, it must have undergone some kind of treatment."
"It stands to reason that they can let their hosts adapt to them without this kind of treatment. Do you think demons and gods have such good intentions to do the work for magicians?"
Konstantin looked at him in a daze, and after a while he frowned and said, "You mean, this might be a conspiracy?"
"All the gods and demons unanimously lend their power to human beings to transform them into human bodies. Why do you think this is?"
Constantine's frown became deeper and deeper. As a former magician, he had much more experience with magic than Schiller, but what he had to admit was that most of the gods and demons lent the power to human beings. can be easily manipulated by humans.
Constantine, who has read many magic books, knows that in ancient times, there were many examples of magicians who could not control the power and exploded to death, but in modern times, it is rare to hear of such accidents. Not good, mostly because of the price to be paid, not because of uncontrollable power.
What's more, when many relatively mild forces flow through the human body, even slight damage will not occur. This is actually very strange, because the human body is not born to hold energy at all. of.
After thinking for a while, Constantine said with a serious face: "I can only tell you that the situation you mentioned does exist, and the adaptability of the power of demons and gods to the human body is indeed purified. During the period, only the most talented magicians could control the violent power, but in recent years, the age of magicians is getting younger and younger, and many people are even advocating that 'children are born spiritual sense'. "
"It was mentioned in the two books about magic rituals I just read." Schiller tapped the table with his fingertips and said, "The magic rituals in ancient times were very complicated, most of them consisted of patterns, Material, energy, chanting and sacrificial dance, and the magic rituals in modern times can be perfectly performed as long as there is one of them.”
Konstantin nodded, he looked away, looked up at the ceiling, and said as if recalling: "Yes, I tend to use magic circles, that is, patterns to cast magic, and some Female mages are more inclined to chant, such as Zatanna, the irony magic she uses is a kind of chant."
"Do you think this is really a good thing?" Schiller also frowned and looked at Constantine, asking: "The threshold is getting lower, the power is getting stronger, and the number of magicians is increasing. The overall debt is getting bigger and bigger, is this really a gift from the gods?"
Constantine was silent, and Schiller went on to say: "They have evolved energy that is more and more applicable to humans, and made the method of casting spells easier and simpler. It is definitely not for the convenience of humans."
"Like a credit card, do banks relax the approval threshold and increase the loan limit to benefit the people? No, they just hope that people will develop the habit of spending ahead of time, and then borrow more debt because they have the ability Force people to pay back their money.”
"Existence outside the human race makes the threshold for borrowing power very low, luring more and more young people, even young mages, into the profession, just to put more debts and collect more interest."
"What's more deadly is that if the whole process is very simple, no one will go to the bottom of it. This is how the magic world is now, isn't it?"
"The mages in ancient times are still studying the structure of each rune that can hold energy, and how to improve the runes and secret words to form a more efficient pattern to control power." Bruce's voice came from the left Later, he was still reading with his head down, but quietly joined the topic of Schiller and Constantine.
Both looked at him, and Bruce went on to say: "From these books, I saw the historical traces of the ancient wizards gradually controlling the violent power step by step."
"At that time, many mages spent their entire lives just to optimize one rune, and an entire school only mastered one pattern, and then used generations of inheritance to study its mysteries."
"There are even many mages who have observed the origin of the original power of the universe through the door of magic. Countless speculations about the origin of the world and magical energy have been passed down by word of mouth among various schools of thought. Today, these classics have become shelved side knowledge."
Bruce looked up at Constantine and said: "Since humans can make fire, we have never stopped studying the origin of the world. The subject of 'how the universe exists' runs through all the learning processes of all disciplines in the scientific community. It is the starting point and end point of the scientific road of mankind.”
"But the magic world has completely given up on research." Schiller closed his mouth, lowered his eyes, sighed softly and said, "As you said, speaking a few words with a demon in a dream can have a far-supernatural power. With the powerful power of human beings, who will not be tempted to leave the mediocre society of ordinary people and embark on a journey into the mysterious and magnificent magic world?"
"How many people, in the process of squandering their power recklessly and imagining themselves as magical geniuses, have thought about whether there are those gods who deliberately push behind all this so easily?"
Constantine remained silent for a long time, and the room returned to silence. Bruce turned his attention to the books again. After a while, Constantine's voice sounded too young for him.
"Do you know? Your argument has been denounced as heresy among the younger generation of mages. The current trend in the entire mystical world is that only humans who are talented and lucky enough have the possibility of mastering magic."
Schiller shook his head and said: "John, I think you know that any society that denies the meaning of hard work is unhealthy. The purpose of only naturalism and bloodlinesism must be more sinister than you imagine."
"Now every young mage is pretending to be a genius." Constantine pursed his lips and said, "I know, many of them can't even draw a complete magic circle, they just pay more , grasp stronger power, and then go to others to say that I am talented, I feel sad for them."
"I've always been very opposed to the ethos of using magic to solve everything, but you can also see that mages with noble blood and special talents like Zatanna are the ones who are sought after in the circle, and I am just a person who has been sought after by various creditors. It's just a lost dog who has been chasing it in an extremely embarrassing manner."
"But you are actually much stronger than Zatana." Schiller looked up at Constantine and said, "That's why I hope you don't use magic. For people like us, magic It's a drag."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Bruce, who was still immersed in the world of books, and Constantine followed his gaze. After a long while, he showed a wry smile and said, "Are you planning to build a New school, and then revolutionize the wizarding world? All I can tell you is that no one has tried to do it ~IndoMTL.com~ but it's very difficult."
Konstantin swallowed, and began to explain to Schiller: "Maybe you think that magicians get stronger as they get older, but on the contrary, the younger and stronger a magician is, the more capital he possesses." The more you have, the more you can pay, and naturally you can get more power, and the stronger the magician, the more power you have to speak, so the magic world has always been decided by the young and middle-aged."
"Most magicians can't live to old age, and those who survive are not stronger than others. It's just that they find a way to spend part of the price or use their power very carefully to live better than others. longer."
"Because they are old enough and close enough to death, they have to choose the price they pay more carefully, otherwise they are likely to die because of it, so most of the old mages hide in their mage towers. Don't go out to socialize."
"This will create a problem, the young mage has power but no brains, the old mage has brains but no power, and there are a lot of idiots who have neither, and the few who have both It is difficult for a talented genius to shake the entire magic world with a very small number."
"And do they have Batman?" Schiller asked, looking at Constantine.
Constantine opened his mouth, and just as he set his eyes on Bruce, Bruce looked up at him and said, "I'm done reciting."
Konstantin was dumbfounded, and then he heard Bruce say.
"And according to the article 'Century-year Investigation of the Generation and Evolution of 623 Physiological Runes by Prisita Fraobang and His Disciples', June 16, 1992 at 3:00 pm, The two magic circles you drew are completely wrong—it’s a complete mess.”
