Chapter 162 [Strange Magician] (Part 2)

The Countess was old and felt a little in good spirits at night. She went back to rest after dinner, but she was very considerate and sent a few servants in charge of the family to serve a few young people.

Chen Daolin knew that any needs would be met among such wealthy families. He was quite curious about this legendary family of the Empire, especially after learning that Du Wei actually came from this family.

(Well, it seems that Du Wei is a little different from me. He comes from this family. Is it a soul-piercing? Brother is really wearing a body-piercing body.)

Chen Daolin's request to visit the castle did not cause any surprises to others - the Luolin family has too many legends, especially after Du Wei's strangeness. Most of the VIP guests who came to Luolin's house for the first time would make a request for a visit.

However, what surprised Chen Daolin was that the magician Batia actually offered to take the initiative to guide Chen Daolin to visit instead of the manager.

"You go down, I will take care of Master Darling. I think Mr. Darling should have some common topics with me." Batia said lightly, but Chen Daolin immediately became a little wary in his heart.

This magician who was first meeting seemed to be very interested in him, and he was also a little too enthusiastic.

"Then I'll bother you." Chen Daolin smiled.

He did not take Barossa and others, but asked Barossa and others to go back to the arranged room to rest. After all, he had been struggling on the boat for a month and finally got ashore, the girls also needed some rest. Anyway, in this ancestral home of the Luolin family, it was impossible to encounter any danger. As for Panning, it was impossible to come to harass him in such a place.

"Master Darling is quite blessed." Seeing Barossa and Xia Xia leave, Master Batia smiled slightly: "The elf maid around you, even by the standards of the elf clan, is the best choice."

Chen Daolin looked stern and said seriously: "I think you probably made a mistake. She is not a maid, but my future wife."

"Oh?" Batia was stunned, then smiled and said, "Then I'm sorry."

Then the two walked side by side in the castle. As the magic consultant of the Rollin family, Batia was naturally very familiar with every place in the castle.

"This castle was built more than 300 years ago. It can be said that it witnessed the growth of the Luolin family from a small noble in this area to a first-class wealthy family in the empire."

Batia led Chen Daolin out of the hall and walked through an open-air corridor. The two stood under the starry sky and looked out to the left side of the castle.

"Master Darling, please see." Batia smiled and said, "That white tower is famous."

Chen Daolin looked around and saw that there was indeed a towering white tower on the left side of the castle. This white tower seemed to be somewhat inconsistent with the main architectural style of the castle. Even the height of the tower body was greater than that of the main building of the castle. It looked particularly tall at night.

"This white tower was built later and has a history of only more than 300 years." Batia smiled and said, "When it comes to this white tower, it has a name called the Stargazing Tower, and there is also a very famous story."

"Oh?" Chen Daolin showed interest.

"About two hundred years ago, the then patriarch of the Luolin family, Earl married a wife. I won't say that his wife is beautiful and charming, and he is also a famous astrologist. It is said that the astrologist has a profound attainment and is even a disciple of Gandov, the great master of the legendary empire."

Gandov's disciple?

Chen Daolin immediately became concerned.

Gandov... The true identity of this great magician of the empire is a druid!

And Gandov's disciples... don't know what they learned from Gandov? Will they learn the druid's magic?

In an instant, Chen Daolin developed curiosity about the white tower.

"It is said that the Earl at that time loved his wife very much. In order to allow his wife to study astrology better and to satisfy her that she could better observe the starry sky, she spent a lot of money and manpower to build this white tower next to the castle. Therefore, people often say that this white tower is a symbol of the love that Earl Rowling has for his wife. The female astrologist often studied astrology on the white tower."

"What happened later?" Chen Daolin asked.

"Later... many years later, the Count passed away, and the female astrologist died of illness because she missed her husband, but she left behind the white tower still standing, symbolizing their love."

Batia's tone was a little emotional.

"That female astrologist... Since she is a disciple of Master Gandofu, hasn't she practiced magic?" Chen Daolin asked.

"I don't know this...then I'm not sure. It is said that there are some, but these records are not very clear." He lowered his waist and shook his head.

The two walked through the corridor and came to the gate on the other side and went in.

"This is the main area of ​​the Luolin family." Looking at the end of the hall in the distance, you could see a red door that opened in a distant manner, outside the gate were guarding several family guards.

"Actually, there is nothing particularly important here, but a large study room... or a private library of a family." Batia smiled and said, "The Luolin family has a special tradition. When the clan leader or heir of the family returns to their ancestral homes, they must spend the night in this study room on the first night and read at night to commemorate the difficulties of starting a business for the family and ancestors. However, now the men of the Luolin family are in the imperial capital, so this study room is empty, and... they are not allowed to visit on weekdays. Otherwise, the Luolin family's library has many books and is very famous. If the Count is here, maybe Master Daling, you and I will have the honor to go in and visit the Luolin family's collection."

"There is a legendary place after the castle." Batia smiled and said, "It was before Lord Duwei had made his fortune. He spent a while in his ancestral home. He built a wooden building and a villa behind the castle, where he studied magic, and collected many precious magic plants and materials. Now, there are many hot air balloons that shine in the empire, and many things were invented by Lord Duwei during his ancestral home."

After pausing, Batia smiled bitterly, "But it's a pity that that place... no longer exists."

"Not exist?" Chen Daolin widened his eyes.

"Yes." Batia said lightly: "Just a hundred years ago, Lord Du Wei personally returned to the ancestral home of the Luolin family, and then ordered people to demolish the wooden building and the villa, transport all the things inside, leaving nothing behind."

"What a pity." Chen Daolin sighed: "It seems that he has no chance to visit him."

"When I first came here, I had the same thoughts as you." Master Batia smiled softly: "If I had the honor to visit Lord Du Wei's magic laboratory in the past, I don't know how..."

As he said that, he shook his head repeatedly.

The two of them chatted more and more. This mage Batia was very talkative and had a very friendly voice.

As he was speaking, Master Batia suddenly spoke, "I have something very curious about it. I wonder if Master Daling can solve my doubts?"

"Hmm? Please tell me." Chen Daolin narrowed his eyes.

"It's about Master Lucius." Batia looked at Chen Daolin's eyes and smiled bitterly: "I had personally tested Master Lucius's magical talent. His magical talent was actually good, but unfortunately, because of his mouth disease, there was no way out for the spell alone. However, Governor Fritz repeatedly asked, and the countess of the Rollin family pleaded with love. I couldn't stand the love, so I had to teach Lucius some meditation techniques. Although he couldn't make him a magician, meditation techniques could at least allow him to cultivate some magic power. He was full of energy and did not harm him."

Speaking of this, Batia paused and frowned, "But not long ago, the Countess received a letter from Governor Fritz, saying that Lucius had finally received a famous master, successfully practiced magic, and finally embarked on the road of magic. After I received this news, I was very surprised. Master Darling, you and I are both magicians, so naturally I know that for anyone who practices magic, the level of spell learning cannot be avoided in any way! Even the legendary skills of the Silence Instant Technique, the Silence Instant Technique will always start practicing from a low point, so it will be possible to understand it in the future. But Lucius... I heard that you led him into the door of magic with one hand and finally passed that difficult point, so..."

When Chen Daolin heard this, he finally understood why this mage Batia paid attention to him.

Well... It turns out that this guy was the one who taught Lucius meditation.

Chen Daolin remembered the words of Luo Xiaogou and others in his heart. His ability to cast magic without chanting a spell should not be easily displayed. Naturally, he would not say it casually at this moment.

He smiled faintly: "Actually, Lucius' talent is really good. I just have some ways to restrain his oral disease. To put it bluntly, it is not worth mentioning. It is just spreading rumors, but I don't know what strange rumors have been spread."

"Have you just restrained your mouth disease?" Master Batia frowned and looked at Chen Daolin.

After a while, the magician suddenly took a deep breath, bowed to Chen Daolin, and said seriously: "Master Daling, as a magician, I understand that according to tradition, every mage has his own unique skills and will not be easily passed on. I ask for advice rashly, it is reasonable that you will not say it explicitly. It is just..."

He smiled bitterly and said, "I am really curious and can't sleep or eat. Let's do this... According to the rules of the magician, if I am willing to give some equal value in exchange for it, I wonder if you are willing to solve my doubts?"
