After closing the door of Smile's room, Lucien concentrated his mental power and changed the structure and frequency of the weak spiritual imprint on the owl Doro, making it disappear immediately, because Smile would definitely check it carefully when he left. Doro, in order to find the reason why it was being followed, Lucien didn't want his unique mental power utilization skills to be discovered and cracked so soon.
Still cautiously walking to the back door, Lucien performed the "Silent Portal" and "Switching Technique" again, and left the Copper Crown Tavern without a sound, and then made a big circle before returning to his hut.
Lying on the bed, Lucien actually had a feeling of peace of mind. In the powerful Alto of the church, meeting fellow magic apprentices was like facing a storm with someone working together, so he no longer had to walk alone: " They are all magic apprentices, I wonder how many of Alto's reclusive magicians are left?"

In the next few days, Lucien lived his very regular life. He got up early in the morning, exercised his body and practiced swordsmanship for an hour, and then went to work in the library. Spectrum, and sometimes analyzing the structure of spells and magic circles in the soul library.
Although Pierre was very obscene, when he fell into the world of music, he was a very quiet boy, and he would not disturb Lucien's study at all. Wolf was invited to play in a certain earl's territory during this period, and did not come. The library, other musicians, musicians and Victor are not friends, but they are not enemies either. There is no time to embarrass Lucien, so Lucien lives very leisurely.
The only small regret is that I couldn't see Ms. Silvia, known as the "Musical Lily", a 24-year-old unmarried musician. Piero admired her appearance very much, and described her as beautiful She seemed to be a gentle and elegant goddess. Lucien didn't have any covetous intentions. He was just infected by Piero's fanatical attitude and found it very curious. Unfortunately, Sylvia is good at the clavichord, and she haunts the piano rooms of many noble girls and wives. Come to the Musicians Association.
In the afternoon, due to the good learning effect, Lucien's study time on words has been compressed to one hour, and then he reads scores and music theory just like Lott and Phyllis. At four o'clock, he starts The two hours of piano playing practice, over and over again, the tenacity and stubbornness hidden in Lucien's heart were brought into full play in this matter, and he would never stop until he was satisfied with the practice. When the practice was over, Lucien Encai lamented that playing the piano was really a physical job, which made him sweat all over his body, and his arms and fingers were very sore.
At night, it was time for Lucien to study and study magic without being distracted by anything.
On Friday evening, when he went to Aunt Alisa's house for dinner, Lucien noticed that the inconspicuous corner of the next wall had been scrawled with several simple figures like children's scribbles.
"At ten o'clock on Saturday night, wait for me in front of the sixth abandoned house in the easternmost part of the Aderjan district. Owl."
"Owl" was Smile's code name.
Lucien, who took a casual glance and deciphered the content, walked into Aunt Alisa's house with his expression unchanged and his steps still steady.

At 9:30 the next night, the soft silver moon and bright stars were all covered by dark clouds, and the night was dark and oppressive.
Lucien put on the black robe with a hood, checked the location and quantity of the magic materials, put the "Frozen Avenger" ring on his left index finger, and carefully felt the surroundings before carefully going out and melting into the In the darkness of night.
Blown by the damp and dull warm wind, Lucien walked to the easternmost edge of Aderjan in twenty minutes and found the abandoned house.
There was the hooting of an owl, and Lucien hurriedly looked at the tall willow tree next to the house, and then saw Smile standing in the shadow of the tree in a black robe, but Smile had already wrapped his pocket The cap was lifted so that Lucien could recognize him, while the owl Doro stood leisurely on the willow tree, observing the surrounding situation and acting as a guard for the party inside.
"Professor, it is our honor that you can come to our party." Smile put on the hood to cover his face, and his tone was full of joy, "I have already told other companions about you, and they I am very happy and would like to ask you for advice on some difficult magic problems, of course, we will all pay for this kind of guidance."
"Magic problem? Hehe, it seems that they still don't quite believe that I'm an official 'magician'." Lucien laughed in his heart, although because the witch only translated one official magic, Lucien didn't know himself and the official magician. There is a big gap in knowledge, but I am sure that I am better than most magic apprentices in this respect. From the analysis of the "Frozen Avenger" ring, it can be seen, "Okay, but I am better at astrology and elemental magic , if it’s these two questions, I think I should be able to answer them for you.”
Hearing Lucien speak so confidently, Smile affirmed his status as an official magician: "Mr. Professor, please follow me."
The black robe was very difficult to distinguish in the night, but the abandoned house was just a dozen steps away, and Lucien easily followed Smile to the door.
Boom, boom, boom, boom... Smile knocked on the wooden door with a strange rhythm, and then hooted twice like an owl.
After waiting for five seconds, the wooden door slowly opened, and a man in the same black robe stood in the dilapidated house: "Owl, is this Mr. Professor?"
His voice was hoarse and hoarse, and it seemed that he had deliberately changed it.
"Yes." Smile replied briefly with the same deep voice, "Mr. Professor, this is 'Fire Wolf'."
Lucien nodded lightly with his hooded head: "Hello." With his left hand hidden in his sleeve, the Frozen Avenger was ready to go.
After entering the small living room of the house, through another door, you will arrive at the storage room, where there is a staircase going downward.
"Basement!" Lucien suddenly realized, why did he insist on building a magic laboratory in the sewer? Obviously, he can build a small basement by himself, and there are not only sewers under the ground.
At that time, it is completely possible to conduct magic experiments and spellcasting exercises in the basement with little movement and little magic fluctuations. For those with a lot of movement, you can find a remote place in the Melzer Black Forest and build a complete one. In the underground laboratory, an experiment is done every week.
The basement is not big. There are eleven low stools and a long table in the middle. Two candles are lit on it. The yellowish flames flicker, reflecting eight magic apprentices in black robes and black hoods. Eerie.
After Lucien walked down cautiously and with high vigilance, Fire Wolf and Smile closed the entrance to the basement, followed them, and sat on the empty low stool.
Smile stood up and glanced at all the magic apprentices: "Everyone, this is Mr. Professor, an official magician with profound knowledge and great strength."
Then he introduced these magic apprentices to Lucien: "This is White Honey, Morning Star, Reindeer, White Gloves, Oak Tree, Sage, Quicksilver, and Hanged Man."
Lucien nodded: "Nice to meet you all, before we start, can you let me take a look at the "Arcane"?"
The sage replied in an old voice: "No problem, Mr. Professor, you can look at it as you like, we will communicate first. By the way, I brought a set of magic experiment utensils you need, if you can guide me a magic question later , then this set of magic experimental utensils belongs to you, if not, then you need thirty silver gnars."
As he spoke, he handed a book with a dark black hard cover to Lucien.
After receiving it, Lucien didn't open it right away, but carefully looked at the cover.
There are countless brilliant silver-white lines in the deep black that makes people's eyes seem to be sucked in. They form two lingua franca words "arcana" and several finger-sized characters: "Sacred Calendar 790, No. 11", simple There is a deep mystery in it, while the inner text is made of parchment.
Opening the catalog, Lucien saw that there were twenty-four articles on it, the first of which was: "Discussion on Several Issues Concerning the Failure of the Fifth Planet Search", and he flipped through it directly: "Douglas The gravitational theory established by Mr. can perfectly explain the construction principles of many force field magics and even most astrological magics, and through this theory, we have created many brand new and powerful magics, which are the force of the two majestic palaces of the classic magic system. One of the main foundations of the field system."
"With the help of the theory of gravity, we have summed up the three laws of planetary motion from the chaotic laws of astrological changes, which have significant guiding significance for prophecy magic such as 'astrology' and 'stargazing'."
…
"But Mr. Douglas' gravitational theory has a very important problem that has not been confirmed. From the gravitational theory, we can deduce its formula, and we can know that the continent we are on is also on a planet, and it is rotating by itself, and it is revolving around the sun. Rotating, and the planets in the sky are also doing similar motions. According to the formula of gravitational force and the formula of the law of planetary motion, we can accurately calculate the positions of these planets.”
"However, when I pinpointed the position and used the space jump magic that I had prepared for a long time to reach the position I calculated, I couldn't see any planets, nor could I see the continent we were on."
"Why is this? The gravitational planet should be waiting for me there, as if it never existed. In that position, I can feel the gravity as if I were on land: but it is so weird that it cannot be measured. Where are those planets?"
※※※
When Lucien knew that the stars in the sky also represented destiny, he knew that the planets in this world were weird, but he didn't expect them to be so weird.
