Facing Merlin once again, who has become Dave, that depressing feeling is still so clear.
Wu Ming stood quietly in the room, looking at Dave who was holding a book and could only see half of his face clearly.
"You came!"
Dave spoke casually, turned the page in the book in his hand, and said without looking back: "Exploring the cut-off road is itself a fantasy. In the ancient times, the path of the elemental magician was cut off.
If you want to take this path, I'm afraid the future will be more difficult than you think!"
"Master, who cut off this road?"
"I don't know, but there must have been a big battle. From the existing clues, I can conclude that the battle was very cruel. I'm afraid that with my current level, I might just get the admission ticket!"
As soon as Dave's words came out of his mouth, Wu Ming's heart sank.
After all, Dave today is essentially a demigod mage.
With such strength, if you can only get admission tickets, then this road will be really difficult.
However, Wu Ming was not a person who gave up easily. He still calmed down and said, "Master, if I can follow this path, will I achieve greater success in life than I do now?"
"It's hard to say, after all, the final destination of every road is the same. It's just that the former road of elements has gone very far. And the modern magic we study has only just started."
Dave put the book in his hand aside, looked at Wu Ming who looked thoughtful, and explained: "During the period of elemental mages, demigod mages were just the entry level. After the destruction of the elements, on this basis, a new generation of
Magicians and demigods are already at a higher level! Of course, this is only temporary. After all, with the passage of time, modern magic will not be weaker than others!"
Dave's words are very clear, that is, the path of the elemental mage, which currently surpasses modern magic.
For example, an elemental mage can communicate with nature and rely on the power of nature to burst out powerful power.
Modern magic, on the other hand, starts from its own magic power and adopts the method of signal tower to connect points to surfaces, and its resonance with power is not yet mature.
In this way, the system has matured, but the elemental path that has been cut off for some reason is more promising than the immature modern magic.
After all, one has a way forward, and the other wants to create a way forward.
It is very unrealistic to rashly pursue creation before your strength reaches a certain level. Similarly, Wu Ming does not think that he can make up for the shortcomings of modern magic in a short time and achieve the goal of keeping pace with the Path of Elements.
scope.
"Think about it carefully. Demigods will have no problem following my path. On the other hand, if you want to be stronger, then take the path of elements. Maybe in the future, you can say no to the gods."
After Dave said this, he stopped talking and left time for Wu Ming himself.
Wu Ming fell into deep thought, thinking about his future.
If he pursues safety, the path of a modern mage can take Wu Ming for hundreds of years, and he will be a demigod-level mage by then.
But Wu Ming was a little unwilling to do so. The demigod mage was very powerful at the moment, but it also depends on the occasion.
If you are just wandering between primary bounty missions or intermediate missions, you can still see the power of a demigod. But if you want to rush up and fight for a high-level mission in the name of the world, or a top-level mission, half-god-level power is still available.
God is simply worse than scum.
Wu Ming doesn't like to deceive himself and others. He has greater ambitions and prospects, and wants to see a broader world.
"Have you decided?" Half an hour later, Dave raised his head again and looked at Wu Ming with deep eyes.
"I've decided, I plan to walk the path of the elements again and explore the power of the sages."
Wu Ming's answer was very certain, and could even be described as unquestionable.
Dave nodded gently. After seeing Wu Ming's choice, he said softly: "Then go ahead. The answer you want is in the Book of Elements. Only if you read it carefully and understand it can you understand.
What is the Path of the Elements!"
"Master, why do you..."
"You want to ask, why do I know so much?"
Dave waved his hand gently and said in a very low voice: "Because, that book of elements was originally taught to me by my mentor!"
"This..." Wu Ming was stunned for a moment, and then he realized what he was doing.
For a long time, the impression Merlin left on Wu Ming was the book of Merlin.
But if you want to write a book like that, how is it possible without inheritance? This is simply unrealistic.
But Wu Ming is still a little strange, why Merlin's mentor would pass the Book of Elements to Merlin. And for what reason did Merlin himself give up the path of the elements, and instead choose to establish a sect and compose a book that belongs to Merlin?
A line of inheritance.
It is impossible to figure out such a question by relying solely on your own guesses.
Therefore, Wu Ming just waited quietly, waiting for Merlin to speak.
"My mentor has outstanding talent, but unfortunately he has poor understanding and cannot understand this book of elements.
Therefore, even though he invented a lot of modern magic, he still never thought about the path of the elements, so he taught me this book of elements that I got by chance. However, I don’t like to follow other people’s paths, so I
Combined with the magic invented by the mentor, we are innovating on this basis and creating the Merlin lineage!"
"Is this the end?"
"Of course, geniuses always pursue differences, and so did I at that time!"
Dave shrugged, showing for the first time other emotions besides stability. Obviously, Merlin, who was once young, was deeply troubled by this.
"Okay, the Book of Elements is yours, and it's time for me to rest."
"Good night, Master..."
Although Wu Ming was a little regretful and still had many questions that he could not ask for help, under Dave's farewell gesture, he still left with regrets.
If possible, Wu Ming at this moment really wanted to talk to him all night long, and even ask him to be his mentor.
It's a pity that although Merlin had no ill intentions, he had no intention of accepting Wu Ming as his disciple. More likely, he regarded Wu Ming as a passerby or the trustee of the Book of Elements.
With regret, Wu Ming returned to his room, thinking whether it was time to go home.
At present, Wu Ming has basically obtained all the gains that can be obtained.
Although it can't be said to be a waste of time if I stay here, it doesn't make sense if I think about it carefully. It seems it's time to leave.
"Ten years, time flies so fast. Forget it, let's go home. The real world is safer. It's just the right time for me to be promoted to a great magician!"
Wu Ming sighed softly, then opened his door and began to pack his things.
A Book of Merlin, a Book of Elements, and a self-made spellcasting ring.
After packing all the things, Wu Ming sat on the sofa and thought for a while.
Finally, I left a letter to Dave and Peggy each and started calling the system.
"System, prepare to return!"
...shua...
A ray of light flashed, and Wu Ming's figure disappeared instantly.
At the next moment, there were only two unopened letters, indicating that someone had once existed here, a passer-by looking for a way forward.
