Chapter 204
Eboden Western District, nine-pointed star wizard tower.
The Midsummer Festival is approaching. Normally, there is peace and quiet, or a little commotion has begun to appear in the castle, which is like a pool of stagnant water, and the entire wizard tower has become a lot more lively.
This ancient festival can even be traced back to the era before the establishment of the empire, or even the era of the origin of human civilization. It was born to celebrate the harvest. Merchants will come from far away from hometowns, normally frugal people will spend their few savings on this day, and nobles will indulge in endless feasts one after another.
From the first round of the new moon in midsummer to 30 days before the next full moon, there will be countless carnivals, large and small activities and various performances during this period. Will be all over the streets of Eboden. As the largest city in the entire empire, Eboden’s Midsummer Festival will even attract the lords of Duchy around to watch the ceremony, which can be described as a very grand occasion.
For the wizards of the nine-pointed star wizard tower, this year’s Midsummer Festival is more special than previous years-the Bellini family has announced that it will be at the Midsummer Festival banquet this time, Officially announced to the entire Eboden that Alto Bellini's research results can cure all diseases, and even revive the alchemy of severed limbs!
Not only apprentices, but even many wizards have begun to gather in a corner of the castle to discuss, especially as the festival is approaching, the Bellini family is also beginning to distribute invitations to the banquet. Getting an invitation has almost become a "sign" between the wizard and the apprentices.
Whenever an apprentice receives that precious “invitation card” from the servants of the Bellini family as almost “honoured”, he can immediately reap countless envy, envy and hatred from the surroundings, as if The winner of the laurels enjoys the various prayers of the people around him.
Of course, there are naturally some "enthusiastic" apprentices who plan to find another way, tentatively asking those servants who come to give invitations, do they need some "waiters" on the day of the banquet-such as serving dishes. Kind of, it would be better if it could be close to the banquet center.
…………""Ancient Rune Classics"? That's it!"
Peter Fasha put his feet on his feet and took the dust-filled old book from the shelf, Stacked on the table with another pile of old books, big round eyes looked towards Loren opposite the desk, long relaxed: "This is all-if you don’t count the antiques that have become fragments, there are some The secret words of the wizards."
"It's really sorry, I want you to come and help me." The black hair wizard has a constant smile on his face: "Is there anything I can thank you for? "
"Thanks? No need, no effort at all!" Peter smiled completely with a childish smile, and quickly waved his hand: "Anyway, I was panicking at the gate, there was nothing at all. Do things, just come and help!"
"Of course...if you insist." The young wizard's face suddenly blushed: "Can you lend me your black feather eagle for a while? A day or a few quarters of an hour will do. Just take a look... Research it by the way, just a little bit! I won’t get any crooked thoughts!"
"You are welcome." Loren said Looking slantingly at the shelf beside the laboratory, zhi zhi yeah Asriel stared wide-eyed, like a pet cat abandoned by his master immediately, and then gave Peter an empathetic smile:
"There is no problem at all, it will take as long as you want!"
"Thank you so much, I will repay you!" This is Peter Fasha.
"Too ruthless, you betrayed me for a little favor?!" This is Asriel.
Ignoring a certain heartbreaking yell and being hugged aside by Peter Fasha with a smirk, Loren’s attention was completely focused on the pile of old books in front of him, and couldn’t help it. sighed.
Just like in Wimpal Academy, the only way to make progress in spell studies is to look for various materials, find examples and ancient runes that you can use.
The only difference is that at that time I had a walking library like Isaac Grantham, but now I have to find it one by one-in order to perfect the structure of the magic array.
If sorcerers of this world want to use high-level enchantments, there are two ways—first is to engrave the enchantment completely on their spiritual palace, which can be used at any time and place. It greatly reduces the damage to the body caused by the power of the void. The disadvantage is that the space of the spiritual palace is limited, and the engraving of the spell will reduce the efficiency of meditation and the void.
Second is the ancient rune, that is, the use of magic spells by singing incantion. The biggest advantage is that there is no upper limit of types. The disadvantage is that the incantion is very long, and the void force will cause serious erosion of the body. At the same time, the formidable power of the spell will also be limited, which makes it very rigid to use.
Of course, there is the Third Type in between. It is like the "Fire of Torino" by Loren. This incantation is completely part of the spiritual palace. It is not only easy to control, but also It has a lot of room for growth, but the disadvantage is that it will occupy the space of spiritual palace just like first.
If you make a comparison, first seems to have learned incantion completely; second is to follow the script, the advantages and disadvantages of two way are very obvious.
The magic array is between first and second. It is a product of "compromise". It also needs some space in a spiritual palace, and it cannot change the shape of incantation itself; but it does not require chanting. At the same time, the magic array itself will increase the incantation formidable power, and greatly reduce the infringement of the void power.
What Loren needs to do is to find a balance between the two as much as possible-that is, to compress the space needed, but at the same time increase the efficiency of casting spells.
This is not an easy task, but it can increase your hole cards, and you can also use this reason to allow yourself to go in and out of the nine-pointed star wizard tower to find all the information you need. It is already very cost-effective. NS.
Add a suitable identity so that you can mix into the Bellini family's Midsummer Festival banquet...Of course, the premise is that you can really get the invitation.
"The Bellini family’s Midsummer Festival banquet...Have you heard of it?" Peter Fasar, who was still playing with Asriel, suddenly turned his head and looked over curiously: "Byrd Teacher Lyle has received the invitation, but he doesn’t seem to be going. What about you?"
"Me?" Loren stunned and chuckled: "I'm just a sorcerer from a foreign country, they Impossible, send an invitation to every wizard, right?"
Peter Fasha was stunned for a moment, and then he sighed in a daze, with a gray expression on his face:
"I'm really getting here The harder it is to understand, it is unbearable for you geniuses to be humble—seriously, if you are not qualified to go, then at least half of the wizards of spell studies are not qualified!"
"But it seems that it is indeed possible. After all, you made Lord Verlo Bellini lose such a big face that day. He is not a broad-minded person, and he belongs to Alto Bellini. Mentor, if he insists on opposing..."
The door of the laboratory was pushed open for a while, and a serious but rather simple young man walked in with his hands behind his back: "Is this the laboratory of His Excellency Ain Rand?"
Although it is a question, the tone is already extremely determined, and it is an undeniable attitude.
"Is there anything I can do to help?" Without moving a look, the black hair wizard walked up to him: "I am the person you are looking for."
"I It’s here to send the invitation."
The expressionless servant handed Loren an exquisite craftsmanship and ribbon-enclosed faith: "Miss Ariel Corona of the Corona family, I invite you to go to the theater in Eboden tonight-although it is a bit abrupt, please give us an answer now. Do you accept the invitation?"
Ignoring Peter Fashar who was already dumbfounded behind him, After looking at the invitation card in his hand, Loren’s face had a faint smile on his face, and he put the envelope in his arms:
"It’s not a gentleman to refuse a lady’s invitation, yes. Right?"
