Views:

After Link returned to the hotel in River Valley Town, he threw a stack of copper coins to the hotel clerk, about thirty coins. Under the surprised eyes of the other party, he smiled and said, "Three slices of oatmeal bread, spread with butter, and a glass of milk, send them to me." room, thank you."

With 300 gold coins in his pocket, it's time to eat a wave of good things, but there's no need to eat too much. His body doesn't eat much, and a snack is enough.

"Link, are you really rich?" the hotel clerk joked with a smile.

Link smiled without explaining, and returned to his attic. Taking advantage of the time when the food was delivered, he took out the parchment on which the thesis was written from the pendant in his own space, and habitually checked for omissions.

The result is very good. There are basically no omissions in the papers that have been written, and the logic of the revised parts is smooth and beautiful. Reading all the way, there is an indescribable beauty.

Even Link, the original author of this thesis, when he settled down to read his thesis, he felt a little unbelievable in his heart: 'Did I really write this thing? Could it be that the Lord of Radiance borrowed my hand to write it? '

This is really possible, but of course Link won't take it seriously, it's a stupid thing to compare the reality with an existence that is far higher than himself.

Soon, the food was delivered. Link had a good meal and felt refreshed immediately. Then he took out the newly bought parchment and continued the deduction.

Maybe it was because he changed his mind after doing the task, and when he went back to write, Link found that he had a lot of new inspiration in his mind, and soon, his mind was completely immersed in it.

This time, with enough gold coins, Link was no longer disturbed by the secular world, and his days were spent writing papers and improving magic.

A week later, Link improved three 0-level spells again, namely Earth Spike, Flash, and Mire.

Link named the three improved spells: Spiral Stone Spike, Flash, and Slurry. The mana consumption of these three magics has become 1 point, and the scale of magic has become much smaller, but the power The degree of cohesion is comparable to level 1 magic, and with Link's precise control over magic, these magics can exert extremely astonishing power.

However, after modifying 3 magics, Link's interest in level 0 magics has almost been exhausted. These magics are too simple and not challenging at all. Now he needs more powerful and advanced magic knowledge.

He is more and more eager to study at East Valley Academy of Magic.

But the dissertation has not yet been completed, Link is a person who has a beginning and an end, so he suppressed his thoughts and continued to write the dissertation. But when he wrote letters to Elette in his spare time, the magical questions he asked became more complicated and difficult.

Even Link himself didn't notice this. He didn't realize that, in fact, the question he was thinking about had already greatly exceeded the scope of a beginner in magic.

On one side, Link was concentrating on writing his thesis. On the other side, after receiving the letter, Ailette scratched his head. He found that he could only understand one of the magic questions Link asked this time, and he couldn't understand the others. It is vague and incomprehensible.

"It doesn't matter, ask the instructor." Ailette copied the question in the letter on the parchment, and then walked up the spiral staircase of the magic tower to the top hall where the instructor was.

His mentor, Moira, has a quiet personality. Unless she is in class, she doesn't like to be disturbed at other times. This is the consensus of all the apprentices in the Magic Tower, but all these rules are invalid for Ailette.

He could go to Moira anytime and anywhere to answer his doubts. At first, Ailette was not used to it, but under Moira's repeated instructions, he gradually became more casual.

Whenever I have a question, I will ask, and it is the same today.

When he reached the door, he knocked lightly, and Ailette said to a sound wave transmission array by the door: "Teacher, is it convenient for you now?"

As soon as the voice fell, there was a soft 'click', and the magic rune on the door lit up slightly, and the door opened automatically.

This shows that the tutor agreed with him to enter the house.

Pushing open the door and walking in, there was a soft 'click' sound behind him, and the door closed automatically again, Elette was used to this.

Behind the door is a wall, painted with colorful murals, which just cover the hall behind, and on both sides of the wall are passages into the hall. When Ellette walked in, a round hall with a diameter of more than 15 meters appeared in front of him. In the hall, there are tables and chairs of luxurious materials, the floor is covered with camel hair carpets, and there are many windows around the hall, and the windows are inlaid with special single-sided light-transmitting crystals.

The light comes in from the window, making the hall extremely transparent. Through the crystal window on the side, one can overlook the beautiful scenery of the entire East Valley. On the edge of the hall, there are several bookshelves, and the shelves are full of books. In front of one of the bookshelves, a female magician of about 30 years old is sitting at the desk, holding a magic book in her hand and reading.

This was Elette's mentor, Moira.

Moira, a 5th-level magician, 35 years old, is the proud disciple of the head of the academy, Anthony, and the number one magic genius of East Valley Magic Academy.

This woman has brilliant blond hair, and the magical aura on her body is so strong that it almost glows. She is wearing a dark blue silver-striped magic dress, and she is half lying and half leaning on a chair quietly reading a book, leisurely and soft. The bright sunlight shines through the crystal and sprinkles on her delicate facial features, showing an indescribable elegance.

Of course, Ailette was completely indifferent to this, he only had magic in his heart, he saluted respectfully, and said calmly: "Teacher."

Moira nodded, put the book in her hand on the table, looked at the sheepskin scroll in Elette's hand, and said with a smile, "What's the problem this time?"

She valued this half-elf very much, because from him, she saw the obsession with magic, which was exactly the same as when she was young.

Ailette stepped forward and handed over the sheepskin scroll with both hands.

Moira opened the scroll and looked at it seriously, but when she glanced at it, her eyes were fixed, and she asked with some doubts: "You have made great progress, have you already reached this point?"

As a level 5 magician, she can see the depth of these questions at a glance. To be able to ask these questions, her basic magic theory is absolutely very solid, and her way of thinking is also very unique.

There are a total of 6 questions on the scroll. She browsed through it and found that she could answer only two of them at once. She had to think hard about the remaining 4 questions.

"What a good question." Moira couldn't help but praise.

But at her level, she no longer pays attention to whether an apprentice is diligent in learning magic knowledge, because if she is not diligent, she will not be able to become her apprentice at all. What she values is her apprentice's ability to ask questions.

Because only by studying hard, thinking carefully after studying, can you ask truly level questions, and the questions on this sheepskin scroll are all very level, and the perspective is very unique, with an indescribable spirituality.

Elette was very satisfied that she could ask these questions.

Ailette's face was a little hot. This was the second time the mentor had praised him, and God knows, he didn't ask these questions. He had only learned magic for less than a month, so he couldn't understand it at all.

Last time, Ailette didn't explain, but this time, he felt that he had to make it clear, otherwise the misunderstanding would get bigger and bigger, and it would be troublesome if it broke out in the future.

Organized the language, Ailette said: "Mentor, actually... Actually, I am asking these questions on behalf of others."

"Huh?" Moira remained calm, looking away from the scroll, looking at her young and handsome disciple: "Who are you replacing?"

"A friend of mine, he is 17 years old like me, but he is not talented enough in magic to get into the academy, so he is teaching himself magic now. My... He helped me a lot in being able to pay for my tuition. "

"Tell me in detail, don't hide anything." Moira became interested.

Looking at his mentor's pair of blue eyes that seemed to be able to see through all the secrets, Ellette didn't dare to lie, and told the whole process of his meeting and acquaintance with Link, including the correspondence between them. leak.

Moira listened carefully, asking a few questions from time to time, and when she finished listening, she sighed and asked, "So, he's in River Valley Town now, writing a thesis proving magical insight?"

"That's right, Master."

"Do you know the general content of the paper?" Moira asked again.

Alette nodded: "Link told me a little bit, he said that he was trying to explain why the stones thrown would eventually fall to the ground... To be honest, I have often thought about this problem during this time, but I No idea at all."

After hearing this sentence, Moira was stunned, and she repeated Elette's words in a murmur: "Why did the stone fall to the ground? Why did it fall to the ground? This is a strange question. No one has ever asked it like this before. But why? "

She tried to explain this common sense with the magical knowledge she had learned, but after ten minutes, she gave up. Her knowledge was not enough to explain this common phenomenon that can be seen everywhere.

After a long time, she sighed: "This is really a rare good question. Just such a question is enough to prove his insight."

She developed an extremely strong interest in this young man named Link.

She picked up the parchment scroll on the table: "The perspectives of these questions are very unique. I need some time to answer them. Tomorrow, I will give you the answer."

"Thank you, mentor... Teacher, aren't you angry when I do this?" Ailette asked cautiously.

"Why are you angry?" Moira smiled: "My disciple is an honest person, so I should be happy."

Ailette breathed a sigh of relief, but he was always concerned about whether Link could be admitted, and asked again: "Since this question has proved my friend's magical insight, tutor, can my friend enter the academy to study?"

Moira thought about it seriously: "The rules of the academy cannot be broken. How about this, you let this Link complete the thesis first, and then hand it over to me, and then I will take this paper to the dean, I think, the dean Will agree."

"Thank you, tutor!" Ailette was overjoyed. The tutor is the dean's proud student. With her words as a guarantee, as long as Link writes the thesis, he doesn't even need to answer the question thoroughly. He only needs to write about the uniqueness. You can enroll.

"You're welcome." Moira smiled slightly. She valued Ailette not only because of his outstanding magical talent, but also because of his character.

After thinking about it, Moira grabbed the bookshelf at the side again, and a magic book flew into her hand: "Your friend is also a very nice young man, I see his problem, he should be in need of this book very much." The guide of this book. In this way, you come to get the scroll tomorrow and bring this book to him at the same time. The magic book is precious. In order not to lose it halfway, you have to make a hard trip. Moreover, you can only let the other party read it for one day. After one day , you have to bring this book back."

"No problem!" Ellette was extremely happy.
