Behind this message is the cultivation content of various high-level magic arts, which is slightly different from the middle and low-level magic arts taught in the past. This time, the old lunatic introduced all the cultivation and application of high-level magic arts Skills, first gave a comprehensive introduction to let Amon understand the cultivation methods of various divine arts, and then focused on explaining in detail the fields that the old lunatic himself is best at, such as space divine arts, information divine arts, and elemental divine arts.
It takes a huge amount of time and energy to practice high-level magic, and even a great magician can't take care of it all. Nietzsche is an eighth-level magician. His own magic achievements have not reached the peak, but he is definitely a top-notch great magician. The research involved.
With Amon's current "convenient conditions", he can already consult various high-level magical books by himself, which the old lunatic probably couldn't think of in advance. However, the old lunatic's message in Pupil of the Earth is still extremely valuable. He explained it in the most concise way. Quoting and sorting out the most appropriate essence of the practice experience of other great magicians and teaching it to Amon.
If Amon was allowed to explore, research, and verify by himself, it would take many years and painstaking effort. The old lunatic did this naturally because he wanted to unlock the secrets of the gods. Although he did not fulfill his wish in the end, Amon benefited a lot from the inheritance.
After reading this message, Amon immediately had a plan to practice high-level divine arts—with the teaching of the old lunatic as the core, supplemented by various classics from the Temple of Isis. However, the old lunatic himself is not good at physical skills, and the cultivation method of one body and two sides of power left by Bell has been confirmed to the end. If you continue to explore, everything can only depend on Amon himself.
…
Even though he was in the Temple of Isis, Amon seldom saw Mary. Except for the public sacrificial ceremonies and other occasions, when the Holy Maiden was in the center of light admired by everyone, Amon could only stand in his own place. Just looking from a distance. In normal times, Amon had no chance to meet Maria alone. The Isis Temple occupied an area as large as a small city-state, and it was almost impossible for the aloof Saintess to directly deal with a warrior on duty in the archives.
Lady Saint would never come to the archives to borrow materials, any classics she wanted to see would be brought by a special person. Theoretically, as Gabriel, she doesn’t have to come to the archives in person, but she has been here several times, and each time it happens to be the archives that Amon is on duty, claiming to be for the Holy Maiden to retrieve the secret documents, because the documents are very important , so she will come in person.
Amon has a feeling that Maria asked Gabriel to see how he is doing. This feeling may be just his wishful thinking, because the documents Gabriel came to fetch are the most precious, not even Amon. Qualification checks are usually locked in a box protected by a magical circle, and the key is in the hands of the full-time high priest in charge of the archives, and can only be opened under the witness of the warriors on duty.
Gabriel's status was higher than that of the full-time priest in charge of the archives, so sometimes he would just take the key and open the box under the witness of Amon. The last time this great warrior came to return the documents, he had a brief chat with Amon and asked how his injury was recovering. At that time, Amon was in the state of slow growth of power, and he answered Gabriel's question truthfully.
Gabriel was a little surprised, and only said that he would find a chance for Amon to talk about physical training. It is of course a wish to be able to wait for the guidance of such a great warrior. Amon thanked repeatedly, and then asked casually what kind of literature the saintess wants to read? Gabriel replied that this document is very important to break through the seventh-level achievement and advance to a great magician.
To become a seventh-level magician, the test you face is "integration of beliefs". Amon has just passed the test of "Breakthrough of Limits" in physical arts, and he has cultivated to the sixth level with the power of one body and two sides. According to the context of Bell's last words, the next test he will face is likely to be the "fusion of faith" in divine arts. . As for whether this is the case, it needs to be verified in person to be clear.
A document that is very important for the saintess of the Isis Temple to be promoted to a great magician, of course, made Amon very curious. It just so happened that this time Gabriel came and went in a hurry. After returning the document, he handed the key of the box to Amon and asked him to return the key to the full-time priest. Therefore, Amon had the opportunity to read this precious document.
This document was written by the saintess of the Temple of Isis two hundred years ago. To Amon's surprise, this document did not mention anything about the cultivation of divine arts, nor did it mention the test of advancement in divine arts. The whole text is a hymn, not only the words are gorgeous, but also the pious and true description, even Amon was deeply shocked after reading it.
Even if a person does not believe in the existence of Goddess Isis, he still has to admire the spirit of the saint's faith, which is true and powerful—this is how Amon feels. However, Amon is still thinking about how such a hymn describes the mystery of the "integration of faith" and what kind of help and enlightenment Maria will get from it.
Gabriel said that he had the opportunity to come to Amon to talk about physical training, but more than a month passed, and he did not see Gabriel again until Amon confirmed that he had the sixth-level achievement of one body with two sides. Just a few days after Amon read the old lunatic's message, the annual "Goddess Blessing Ceremony" began. This is one of the most important festivals in Memphis City. What is Bailie busy with these days.
Of course, Goddess Isis will not appear in this grand ceremony in person. The person who represents the blessing of the goddess is the saint. Memphis has not held this grand event for thirty-three years. There is no other reason, only because there is no saint. . Two years before Maria came to the Temple of Isis, this ceremony was not held. It is said that the saint is growing up under the blessing of the goddess.
The climax of this ceremony is after the sacrifice, the saint blessed the people on the square in front of the temple.
The square in front of the Temple of Isis is very large, and it can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people. Almost all the residents of Memphis came, and there were even farmers, shepherds and other city-states from outside the city who heard the news. people. It is very difficult to maintain the order of so many people without crowding and stampede accidents. Even Amon was transferred to the square to be on duty. Standing among a crowd of people holding a shuttle gun.
When the blessing ceremony began, Maria wore a golden crown and held a scepter, and climbed onto the high platform that had been set up in front of the temple. When the bell rang, the people in the square knelt down towards the high platform, and they saw Maria silently chanting something with a solemn expression, and slowly raised the saint's staff.
The tears of the gods emitted a golden light. The light was very faint at first, but it irradiated a very wide range. The array of magic arts arranged by the magicians under the high platform gathered in mid-air and turned into a golden beam of light and shot into the sky. The beam of light became brighter and brighter, gradually covering the entire sky with gold. The golden sky is a rare spectacle in the world, which makes everyone kneeling in the square deeply awed.
After the sky turned golden, the light beam disappeared. It looked like the staff of the Holy Maiden was held high, and the sky was covered with a layer of golden brilliance. The bell of the temple rang unhurriedly and melodiously, reverberating in the square. With the sound of the bell, milky white light slowly drifted down from the golden glow of the sky, like a veil, like a milk waterfall, and like hazy moonlight.
This is the "Blessing of Isis". Maria used it to heal Amon's injuries, but at this time it was cast on hundreds of thousands of people. The high-level effect of this kind of magic can not only treat injuries, but also eliminate pain, wash away fatigue, restore physical strength, and give people confidence, strength, and courage. Such a blessing ceremony is an important reason why Egyptian residents worship and dedicate to the goddess Isis, and it is also a symbol of the Temple of Isis.
Although there are nearly a hundred priests holding staffs and forming a magical array to help, but when this magic is performed on hundreds of thousands of people, and everyone present can feel its effect at the same time, Mary on the high platform Ya at least had to be a great magician. She finally succeeded in advancing and resumed the most important ceremony of the Temple of Isis! From this moment on, she is the real saint of the Temple of Isis, and her status is unshakable.
Amon also knelt down among the crowd. No one knew better than him how gentle and gentle the blessing of Isis was. He had a familiar feeling, and the feeling from his heart when he knelt down was also peaceful and serene. The effect of casting divine spells in such a large area is obviously not as good as Maria's healing of Amon alone when she was a sixth-level magician, but everyone in the square felt it.
Everyone bowed to the ground devoutly and attentively, hundreds of thousands of people were silent, and few people paid attention to the things around them. At this moment, Amon suddenly became alert, bounced up from the ground unexpectedly, and threw the shuttle gun in his hand towards the front left.
In terms of pure strength, Amon at this time is almost comparable to a great warrior. The spear flew out with a sharp and subtle trembling and screaming sound, and there was a circle of silver light in the air, like a fish in the water. Aroused ripples. The shuttle gun met a black crossbow arrow in the air. This arrow was five feet long and the thickness of a wine glass. It suddenly shot from the crowd towards the saint on the high platform.
The seemingly dull crossbow arrows collided with the shuttle gun in the air, and there was a roar of waves hitting the reef, and the shuttle gun, which could pierce even a brick wall, was bounced lightly. What's even more incredible is that the crossbow didn't change its direction, it just paused in the air, and then seemed to gain new power suddenly, and continued to fly towards Maria.
The people prostrated themselves on the ground, without seeing this scene at all. The sound of crossbow arrows colliding with spears in the air happened to ring at the same time as the bell in the temple. People would never have imagined that in such a sacred and solemn ceremony, there would be There are assassins!
