"This", Link raised his head, as if he hadn't heard what Old Skuva said, and looked left and right: "Old Skuva, your house is really big, it seems you must be very rich!
"
As soon as he saw old Scuva's pretending to be serious, Link knew something was wrong. This old guy had obviously made some kind of trap for him to get through. Of course, Link's knight would not just tie him up like this.
Although if something really happened to old Scuva, Link would definitely help at all costs, but Knight Link would definitely be able to dodge something that obviously has a perverted conspiracy nature. This is what he did under the guidance of Calvin's mentor
The personal experience after surviving the old pervert's subordinates.
"Don't change the subject." Old Scuva obviously saw through Link's intentions and did not answer his words. He said calmly: "I am asking you something. Not answering the elder's question is not what a knight should do.
Be polite?!"
"Of course, of course", Link said with a serious smile on his face: "Dear old Elder Skua, this... By the way, where did Miss Qiweila just now go?!"
"Knight Link", Old Skua glared at Link. Of course he understood what Link meant: "Your life was saved by me and Ms. Qiweila together. Now the request I am making to you also represents
After you agree to what Vera means, she will naturally tell you in person!"
"Uh", Link was at a loss for words now. He spread his hands and sat down opposite Old Scuva: "Go on, go ahead, but you have also seen that you are a supreme and powerful man.
, I am just a little trainee knight, how can I help you?!"
He had long felt that the old Skuva in front of him was very extraordinary. When he was in the woods, he had always thought that old Skuva should be the top powerhouse in the mainland, such as some kind of magic god. However, now he was in this place.
In such an inexplicable so-called place outside the continent, he saw with his own eyes the space passage that Old Scuva made that went against all common sense. Although Link didn't know how difficult it was to do this, he could do it.
This is definitely something that goes beyond all the current common sense of magic on the mainland.
You know, what kind of method is it to be able to establish its own rules?!
The only thing in the legend that involves the establishment of rules between heaven and earth is the story of the Lord God setting rules for the current continent. That is to say, in addition to being able to ignore the rules on the continent, there must be at least someone close to the Lord God.
ability.
Although Old Skuva also said that he was able to do this with the help of the ability of the current mage tower, but Link can already roughly understand that Old Skuva's level is probably compared to the top players on the continent.
The strong ones need to be a little stronger.
If it weren't for the great Knight Link who had heard so many legends, he would have had all kinds of incredible dreams about his future since he was a child. Although he has never dreamed of drinking tea and chatting with the Lord God one day, he would be so arrogant.
If it was too far away, if other people on the mainland, especially those at the top level of the ninth level, had seen this kind of magic that could be called a miracle, they would probably not dare to go to Old Skuva.
Sitting so calmly in front of me.
Fearless because of ignorance, this sentence is quite suitable to describe Link's current state.
"A kind and kind-hearted elder like me," Old Scuva chuckled, "Of course I won't leave some embarrassing things to you. Don't worry, this is a big deal.
Those Dharma Gods on the mainland you are talking about are things that every one of you would dream of grabbing. Boy, you are going to be in good luck!"
"Oh?" Link vaguely remembered a possibility, his heart jumped a few times, and his smile became happier: "Dear elder Skuva, I don't know what you are talking about...
…”
"We have decided to accept you as our disciple." Old Skuva nodded and looked at Link with a very kind look: "Congratulations to you young man, you are about to inherit the greatest magical power since ancient times.
Over the thousands of years since the tower was built, I don’t know how many people have longed for such an opportunity, but only a few people have actually been able to get such an opportunity..."
Old Skuva looked out the window, as if he was remembering something, and actually felt a little sad.
"With the approval of Qiweila and I," Old Skuva quickly withdrew his eyes and looked at Link again: "You have the preliminary qualifications to participate in inheriting the power of the Mage Tower. Of course, next you
I still need to get confirmation from several other members of the Mage Tower, but before that, I have to find out first, are you willing or not?!"
"I..." Link almost blurted out the words "I do", but the look in Old Scuva's eyes that always reminded him of that old pervert, Master Calvin, still made him forcefully
I swallowed the last two words, and by the time the words came out of my mouth, they had already become: "I would like to ask the respected elder Skua first, what you said is so wonderful, but I always feel that
Do you have any other conditions that you haven’t had time to clarify yet?!"
Knight Link has never rejected dual cultivation of magic and martial arts. Even dual cultivation of magic and martial arts has been one of his dreams for his great knighthood since he was a child. Now that he has such an opportunity in front of him, how can he say that?
Not willing.
What's more, although he still lacks a correct judgment on how powerful Old Skuva's magic ability is, it is certain that it will at least not be worse than the top powerhouses on the mainland. Besides,
How wonderful it is to learn old Scuva's space magic. It is much easier to use than a carriage. It will be more convenient to go home from the mage tower in the future, and it will save money on the road. I just don't know if riding in a carriage is comfortable?!
It's a pity that Old Scuva didn't know that his shocking space magic was being compared by Link with the comfort of the carriage. Otherwise, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood and immediately accept the person in front of him who has not yet officially been accepted as a disciple.
The boy went out and kicked him as far as he could.
However, although Link had imagined such a wonderful prospect, his experience still allowed him to restrain his excitement at the critical moment, and still looked at Old Scuva with a calm expression.
"This." Sure enough, Old Scuva rubbed his big nose with a little embarrassment and said with a smile: "Of course there are a few conditions, but these are all trivial, trivial."
"Then let's talk about your conditions first." Link said to Old Scuva with a serious look on his face: "I also want to know whether I can get this rare opportunity."
"In this case, I will tell you carefully." Old Skuva took a deep breath, and a rare serious expression appeared on his face that had never had a serious attitude: "I hope you can be mentally prepared.
!”
"Say it!" Link also sat upright and listened seriously.
"First of all, you must give up your belief in the so-called main god on the mainland!" Old Skuva stared closely at Link's reaction: "I told you, the Mage Tower is beyond the rules of the mainland.
Things, so if you want to feel the power here, you must completely throw away the constraints of all laws on the continent. The predecessor who built the Mage Tower once said that the greatest power of the Mage Tower comes from the freedom of people's hearts, so you
You must not be bound by the faith of the Lord God, can you do this?!"
"Ah!" Link cried out, not because he thought Old Skuva's condition was too difficult, but because he didn't expect that the condition proposed by Skuwa so solemnly could be so easily achieved.
Although it is said that since the ancient gods, all the major empires on the continent have been bathed in the light of the main god. Not only that every time a new king of the empire ascends the throne, the bishops of the major imperial temples who nominally represent the main god must
To preside over the ceremony of the king's allegiance to the Lord God. When important officials of the empire take over, similar rituals must be held. Moreover, in the knights and armies of all major empires, there are accompanying priests, thus ensuring that the army
They can also share the glory of the main god. In various provinces and even in relatively large towns, there are also positions like priests. When Link was a child in Colo Castle, he often ran to the door of the temple where the priests were stationed.
Play, it can be said that the major empires on the continent, from a institutional perspective, seem to ensure that every resident living on the continent, from birth, is omnipresently exposed to the various deeds, education and ideological education of the Lord God.
Influence, if this system operates according to this system, perhaps every citizen on the continent should indeed become a loyal believer in the Lord God.
But Old Skua forgot one thing, that is, this system has lasted for who knows how many years. No matter how vigorous and flawless the plan was when it was first established, it has been running for so many years.
Later, when this system becomes a habit, no matter how perfect the system is, it will inevitably become tired or careless because of those who promote and implement the system, so that the system can no longer maintain its original appearance.
Of course, Link cannot know the things that really belong to the upper echelon of the empire's secrets, but at least for the new generation of teenagers like Link, most of them probably don't have much affection for the belief in the Lord God.
At least when Link was growing up, he never heard that the priest stationed in Colo Castle had any activities to preach the thoughts of the Lord God. And I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Link always felt that his eldest father was related to him.
Little Dad generally seems to have been avoiding everything about the main god. Even when he occasionally mentions it, it seems to be with a somewhat disdainful tone. Therefore, Link, who grew up in this environment, has little regard for the main god, that is,
Occasionally shouting verbally, without even a hint of awe.
Poor old Scuva, in his long life, he has really been separated from these ordinary people for too long, and the upper-class people in the empire or the powerful people on the continent who he occasionally came into contact with
Both of them always talked about the Lord God, so they misjudged the situation seriously for a while, and now stared at Link nervously, fearing that he would not agree to this basic condition.
"Okay!" Link whetted Old Scuva's appetite for a long time, and then he nodded deliberately and deeply: "I promise you!"
"Ah..." Old Skuva almost cried out with joy. Fortunately, he woke up in time to his identity, quickly straightened his sitting posture, and said with a straight face: "Being able to do this means that you are also a person who does not want to be affected.
Anyone who is bound, I really didn’t see the wrong person!”
Although the mage tower is full of old monsters that have overcome the threat of death, they are not worried about the interruption of inheritance if there are no descendants. However, after all, there has not been a brand new face in so many years. Everyone looks at it,
I'm tired of watching it, and it's really difficult to get these old guys who have been made extremely lazy by endless years to think about having a successor. After all, there are a few of them here who have nothing to do.
Meditating in the room, they can think of an old monster that is hundreds of years old. Even if they encounter some good people and have some thoughts when they go out, as long as they forget about it for a while, when they think of it again, they are afraid that that
All the good materials and good qualities have died of old age.
This time is an exception among exceptions. First, Old Scuva, who happened to be wandering outside, encountered the unique aura of the monster boss, and then he deliberately followed the horse thieves who were looking for a doctor back to the thieves' cave, and then met him.
This is not easy for Link, a young man who seems to be quite pleasing to the eye and has great potential.
Then Link was fatally injured because of a small test he did. Of course, Old Scuva himself would never admit that it was his negligence, so it was just a small test, a test that went wrong.
The injury caused Old Scuva to have to take him back to the mage tower together, thus avoiding the danger of him forgetting about Link.
And the most important thing is that Link's story and his performance actually moved Ms. Qiweila, and she also affirmed that a little guy like Link must know that it is necessary to become a quasi-heir to inherit the power of the Mage Tower.
Two of the five old guys nodded. With Ms. Qiweila's approval, Link stepped into the door of the mage tower. How many years has it been? The last one... uh, the last one
Old Skuva really couldn't remember when he had the idea of receiving a successor.
"That's great." Old Skua couldn't help but smile with joy, and said to Link: "In this case, I can start to explain to you the current situation of the Mage Tower. There are currently a total of five people managing affairs in the Mage Tower.
The most mature and charming among the great mentors is, of course, the old Scuva who is in front of you. You have also met Ms. Qiweila, and there are also three great mentors, Kairos, Lijia, and Lei Ze."
He glanced at Link who was all ears, cleared his throat with satisfaction, and continued: "Although the power of the Mage Tower is inextricably linked to the magic currently popular on the mainland, in the ultimate place
, but it completely surpasses the current magic system on the mainland. For example, your old Great Master Skuva, according to the mainland, I should have mastered the highest level of fire magic, but I
What is more superior than all the magicians on the mainland is that due to the power of the inherited mage tower, I also master the rules of space and time. Of course, such magic is contrary to the rules established by the Lord God, so in
It can't be cast for a long time on the mainland, but it is already a nearly invincible power. If I hadn't taken the risk on you that day and cast the time barrier for a long time, humph, boy, you would have died!
"
"Oh", Link finally understood what happened to him in those days. He smiled at Old Scuva and said, "By the way, if you use this forbidden magic for too long on the mainland, what will happen to you?"
What are the consequences?!"
"This", old Skuva rubbed his big nose and muttered: "Actually, I don't know. This is just a commandment passed down from the instructions of the ancestors of Mage Tower. You can just follow it in the future.
, do you know?!"
"Yes! Yes! Respected old Grand Master Scuva!" Link agreed with a serious face, but he was snickering in his heart. This old Scuva really has many similarities with his mentor Calvin.
He likes to talk about things that he doesn't even know are extremely serious.
"Several other great mentors also have their own rules." Old Skuva waved his hand and continued: "For example, the rule mastered by great mentor Vera is '生', and the rule mastered by great mentor Kairos
It's 'light', 'dark', etc., but you don't have to think too much about these. Anyway, if you pass our test and can truly inherit the power of the mage tower, you will naturally have rules that you can control.
Then you will be able to truly understand what this is all about.”
"Testing?" Link was also a little excited by Old Scuva's description of the bright future, and asked: "When will the test start? What kind of test? Is it difficult?"
"Hahaha", Old Scuva looked at it, which whetted Link's appetite. He laughed with a sense of accomplishment, and his words became generous: "Don't worry, the test is of course not that easy, but dear
Link, your old Scuva is also one of the evaluators of the test, don’t worry, I will let you know when the time comes, hahaha!”
Link felt that Old Scuva's old face had never been as cute as it was now. He jumped up and was about to speak, but before the smile could bloom, it froze on his face again.
Because the complacent old Scuva then said another sentence: "You will definitely become a qualified mage, my dear Link, from now on, abandon your damn trainee knight and join us in our glory and greatness.
