Dilling followed Hydein to the small lake in the forest.
The clear lake calmly reflected their figures standing side by side. But Dilling didn't think it was good at all, because even from the reflection, he was a little shorter than Hydein. Maybe, he should drink more milk.
He thought so in his heart, but his face was as calm as ever.
Hydein picked up a small stone from the ground.
Dark gray, angular, the kind you can never find in a pile of rocks.
"Remember what it looked like?" Hydein put the stone in front of Dilling.
Dilling looked carefully and nodded after a while.
Hydein raised his hand and tapped him on the back of the head, "You are dementia, it took so long to remember?" He threw the small stone away, leaned over and picked up another one for him.
This time, Dilling didn't dare to look at everything as he did just now. He glanced briefly and nodded.
Heidein did not throw the small stone on the ground this time, but threw it forcefully towards the middle of the lake.
Dilling had an ominous foreboding.
Sure enough, Hydein said, "Go and pick it up."
Dilling stared at him.
He had done this kind of thing before, but at the time it was a dog.
Heidin looked at him sternly and said, "Do you understand water?"
There are many lakes in Shaman Lille, so most nobles know water. But when the words came to his lips, Dilling turned it into, "I don't understand."
Heideyin was not disappointed, nodded and said: "Yes. A water element magician who does not know water."
Before Dilling could reflect the real meaning behind the sentence, he was swept into the lake by an unknown wind.
The ice-cold lake water made Di Lin shiver uncontrollably. He poked his head out of the water very quickly, and saw Heidein standing by the lake, with smug eyes flashing in his eyes, "You learn fast."
Dilling did not continue to confront him, but turned around and went deep into the lake to find the so-called stone.
Hydein sat down, and the fire element moved the pile of small stones in front of him boringly.
For so many years, he has always wanted to separate wind magic into a separate magic category, instead of being confused under water and fire. To this end, he even started to study the magic of mass destruction of the wind system and the feasibility of trying to organize them into a separate theory. But Chai Fuang thinks exactly the opposite of him. He has written several papers and reports trying to bring the wind element under the water element to expand the water element magic, even if it is not only the water element that can use the wind. The reason why he rejects the fire element from the wind magic is that the fire element itself has temperature. The result of using the fire element to create the wind magic with high intensity is extremely high temperature, thus covering the power of the wind magic.
Hyde sneered, but there was no better solution.
The dean and the council are currently taking a wait-and-see attitude towards the two statements. Obviously, they are not concerned about the attribution of wind magic, but the research results of wind magic.
Thinking of this, the stone in front of Hyde suddenly rose like a tornado as if being swept away by a tornado, and then flew towards the center of the lake.
As soon as Dilling emerged from the water, he saw a large string of stones hitting him, and his mouth reflexively recited a string of incantations.
The water in the lake immediately rippled a layer of transparent water cover to protect him.
But the stone did not fall as expected, but spread out like petals and landed around the water cover.
"Who taught you?" Heidein's voice suddenly approached!
Di Lin turned his head and saw that he was standing on the lake one meter away, the sleeves of the mage's robe shaking slightly by the breeze.
Dilling removed the water hood and said in a low voice, "Mr. Richie."
"I order you, from now on, forget it immediately!" Hydein said in a deep voice.
Dilling frowned. This condescending attitude made him subconsciously resist, but he did not refute it directly, "Mr. Richie is an eighth-order magician." Magister is a title only available in the academy. Outside, no matter what level is a magician.
"Do you know why I am a fire element and you are a water element, but can I still be your mentor?" Hyde asked lightly because he suppressed the anger that had just surged up for a moment.
Dilling said without hesitation: "Because what you teach is the way to communicate and use elemental perception."
This is the biggest difference between the Holy Court and other magic academies.
In order to make every student learn magic as soon as possible, other magic academies will arrange magicians of the same department as their teachers. In this way, students can graduate very quickly as long as they copy and copy the magic of the teacher.
And the Holy Court is not.
It never allows a student to be second to so-and-so, no matter how great or powerful that so-and-so is. Every student who wants to graduate from the Holy Academy must create his own magic. This is why Mingming Shengyuan has the largest number of students in the mainland, but the proportion of graduates is far lower than that of other schools.
Hydein looked at him steadily until Dilling lowered his head slowly.
"I see."
Dilling said to his reflection on the lake. Although he didn't want to admit it, Heiden was right.
Hyde's eyes warmed slightly, "Have you found the stone?"
Only then did Di Lin remember the task just now, and hurriedly showed him the small stone that he had been holding in his hand.
In fact, the shape of each small stone is similar. For example, the one in his hand, he thinks it is exactly the same as the one he saw before. But Hyde didn't even take a glance, he shook his head and said, "No. Continue."
Dilling frowned.
Hyde didn't give him a chance to defend himself, so he rode the wind back to the shore.
Dilling threw away the stone and plunged into the water again.
The sky is getting darker and darker, and the surroundings have begun to blur in the gray.
Dilling couldn't remember the first time he grabbed the stone and swam to the shore. He only felt that his whole body seemed to be soaked in water, and his limbs trembled involuntarily. He had never had such a strong longing for land.
But Hyde's tall and cold voice was like the strongest barrier in the world. Whenever the thought of going ashore floated in his mind, he could see Heidein's eyes coldly shot over, and his body was set back in place.
"No." Hyde interrupted his extravagant hope of going ashore ruthlessly.
Dilling clenched the stone, allowing the edges and corners of the stone to stimulate his palms.
He needs pain to sustain his willpower.
"Dilling?" Soso's call came from not far away.
Dilling was refreshed, and his eyes immediately turned to the position of Soso's voice.
Hydein's eyes flashed, "He cares about you very much."
Dilling said weakly, "He's my cousin." He explained this because he felt that with Hydein's character, he might not pay attention to such details.
Sure enough, Hydein raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh?"
Dilling was considering whether to speak up, and he heard him continue: "Then, if he encounters danger, will it be able to stimulate your potential?"
Dilling's body suddenly exploded, "What do you mean?"
Hydein spread his fingers. A flame burned in his palm. "I just want to make teaching more diverse."
Dilling gritted his teeth and said, "I'll look for it again, and I'll definitely find it this time."
Heidein put away the flame and said coldly, "You don't even know what you're looking for."
Dilling's body froze, and his face showed a little daze.
what to look for? Aren't you looking for rocks
But Hyde knew that those stones weren't just because he didn't even look at them
He admitted that he did come up with a few random pieces in the end, because as time went on, he could barely remember what the original stone looked like. So, what did Heidein rely on to deny it? Is it also indiscriminate denial
Heidein seemed to see what he was thinking, and suddenly reached out and blew a gust of wind.
Dilling just blinked, and saw Soso being blown in front of his eyes by the gust of wind.
"What are you going to do?" he asked nervously.
Heidein didn't answer him, but looked at Suo Suo and asked, "What did Chai Fuang teach you today?"
Susuo's face was pale, and he obviously hadn't recovered from the speed of the gust of wind just now. It wasn't until Hydein asked for the second time that he said in a daze: "Organize the information."
Hydein raised the corners of his lips, and the answer did not surprise him. "No student at St. Padres ever graduated because it was too well organized."
Soso's face turned even paler.
Dilling pursed his lips.
Hydein looked at Dilling as if he were looking at a fish about to be hooked, "I'll help you find the man who cast the spell."
Dilling's heart trembled, and his eyes were fixed on him. From what he knew about him, every benefit he gave would inevitably come with a condition that was difficult to achieve.
Hydein did not live up to his expectations, "If you can find that stone."
The wind blows.
Dilling's skin on the lake's surface trembled slightly.
Heidein said slowly: "I imprisoned the fire element on the stone."
Fire element
Dilling knew the answer for a moment, and almost wanted to beat his head.
Yes. Other stones have been sinking at the bottom of the lake, and even if they are brought up, the surface must be densely covered with water elements. Hydein recognized the stone without looking at its appearance and shape, as long as he felt that there was no fire element on the stone.
Knowing the direction, Di Lin took a deep breath and swam toward the center of the lake again.
When Soso saw Dilling leave, a panic burst into his heart.
Even though the man standing beside him was the instructor of the academy, he always had an indescribable sense of unease.
Heidein suddenly said, "Have you ever thought about what to do if the spell can't be unraveled?"
Suo Suo was startled first, then startled again, and then shook his head honestly.
"Then, think about it from now on."
