The bright moonlight shines on the earth, as if covering the world with a silver glow.
After returning to the Misty City from the Valley of the Wind and meeting Wizard Morgan at the manor, time soon came to night. Enzo rejected Wizard Morgan's invitation to have dinner and headed to the academy area alone.
"The changes are really big..."
Walking on the road to the college, Enzo looked around. There was a faint mist floating in the college under the moonlight, making it look a little hazy. Compared with forty years ago, great changes had taken place here.
Not long after, Enzo arrived outside a tall white tower.
At the entrance, you can see some boys and girls dressed as apprentices, coming in and out of the white tower. This is the academy's library. The lower three floors contain a lot of free knowledge. This is one of the benefits of [Phantom of Crows] to apprentices.
one.
"In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed..."
Looking up at the white tower in front of him, a trace of nostalgia appeared on Enzo's face. When he was still an apprentice, his favorite thing to do was to rely on the chip to record the knowledge in the library as a capital to improve his strength.
Then, Enzo shook his head slightly and walked straight into the library.
The surrounding apprentices saw the black robe on Enzo and the two crows embroidered on his chest, and they quickly saluted. However, as a second-level wizard, Enzo was not interested in the knowledge on the lower three floors of the library and went directly to the fourth floor and above.
There is a library with a large number of books, and the first three floors are mainly for apprentices.
When you reach the fourth floor and above, it is a paid area. Whether a wizard or an apprentice wants to check the books, you need to pay magic stones.
The fourth floor of the white tower is an empty area.
Compared with the previous free third floor, there are almost no people here. The area in Nuoda is extremely quiet. Stacks of books are placed on the shelves, and confinement runes are set up around the perimeter. If you want to view any books, you must pay a magic fee.
stone.
"Huh? Familiar smell..."
As soon as he stepped onto the fourth floor of the tower, an old voice came from not far away, like an old man who was a librarian. He turned around slowly, with only a single eye on his wrinkled face, which looked a bit scary.
"Are you...Brian?" Enzo thought.
"Is it really you? Enzo!" The one-eyed old man's cloudy eyes flashed with luster, and he said in surprise, "Long time no see, old friend! It turns out you have become an official wizard."
Librarian, Brian!
The opponent's identity is a one-eyed crow. When Enzo was still an apprentice, he was responsible for managing the library in the academy. Enzo still remembers that Brian was very greedy at that time. In order to facilitate access to books, Enzo came every time.
Every time, I would bring some delicious nuts to it.
"Long time no see, Brian!" Enzo said with a smile.
When the three major organizations went to war in the Dark Territory, Enzo went to Thunder City to perform garrison duty in order to avoid the war. Since then, he has never seen Brian again. He thought that the other party had died in the war, but he did not expect that he was still alive.
.
The lifespan of a one-eyed crow is about fifty years, so it is not surprising that Brian is now in the form of an old human being.
"Taste this, Brian."
Enzo gently touched his fingers and took out a bag of nuts from the space ring. This is a food unique to the forest world. Birds like it very much. They are usually Swain's snacks.
The one-eyed old man smelled the smell of nuts and immediately transformed into a crow form.
Brian flapped his wings, grabbed the bag with his claws, and flew nimbly to the bookshelf next to him. He pried open a nut with his beak, and a satisfied glint suddenly appeared in his one eye.
“So delicious!”
While enjoying the nuts, Brian said, "Hey! My old friend, are you coming to the library specifically to see me?"
"Actually, it's more than that."
Enzo chuckled and spread his palms, saying, ": I plan to check out books about [The God of Killing] and [The Lost Continent], so I want to ask for your help."
"A book about the God of Slaughter and the Lost Continent?"
The one-eyed crow squatted on the bookshelf, holding a nut bag in one paw. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "No problem, my old friend. The books you need are on the fourteenth row of bookshelves, but you need to pay to check them out."
!”
"Thank you, Brian." Enzo nodded slightly to express his gratitude.
Then, he found the fourteenth row of bookshelves and found several books about the Lost Continent on the top floor, so he took out a few magic stones and threw them on the bookshelf.
As if it were alive, the bookshelf opened its mouth and ate several magic stones.
Immediately afterwards, the confinement runes on the bookshelf were lifted. Enzo took out a few books about the lost continent and quickly browsed them. Using the recording function of the chip, he quickly entered all the information into the database.
"The Lost Continent, the only restricted area in the world..."
Putting the books in his hands back on the bookshelf, Enzo looked thoughtful, recalling the information on the books, and murmured to himself in a low voice.
A lot of information about the lost continent is recorded in several books on the fourteen rows of bookshelves.
Among them, the word that describes the Lost Continent the most is the word forbidden area!
After the final battle in the ancient era, the originally complete continent fell into pieces. In addition to the five main continents, there were many small land islands scattered around the world.
The most famous one is the Lost Continent!
As the place where the Lord of Darkness fell, this continent was affected by the power of darkness and formed unique rules. Compared with other areas of the wizarding world, it seems very out of place.
At the beginning of the Third Era, after the Supreme Council was established.
The five supreme wizards established the order of wizard civilization, and their control over the wizard world reached its peak, but even so, they still did not dare to set foot on the Lost Continent easily.
The long-term lack of control and chaotic rules have made the Lost Continent a restricted area.
Therefore, after many fallen wizards are wanted, they will choose to go to the Lost Continent, considering it as their last refuge. Therefore, the Lost Continent is also called the Paradise of the Fallen!
At the same time, the Lost Continent is also the only area in the wizarding world where gods spread their faith.
The ancient times ended and wizards took over the world.
Most of the gods died in the war, and some of them were expelled. The most representative one is the God King of Light who rules the world of the Holy Temple.
The last small part still remains in the wizarding world.
They may be connected to the world and have an inseparable relationship, or it may be for other reasons. Anyway, they did not fall or be expelled in the end. However, due to the rule of the wizard civilization, they could only huddle in the Lost Continent.
It is a forbidden area of the world and the only place that can accommodate gods.
"Forbidden area, danger, chaos!" Enzo's eyes flashed and he whispered his knowledge of the lost continent.
It is a refuge for fallen wizards and the last home of the remaining gods from ancient times who resisted wizards. As a place where even the parliament dare not set foot easily, the Lost Continent is completely a restricted area for wizards.
But the two maps of God in Enzo's hands clearly pointed there!
"The God of Killing!" Enzo's eyes flashed.
There was only one book about the God of Slaughter on the fourteenth row of bookshelves. Enzo browsed it in just one minute and recorded the information in his mind.
The God of Killing, Hershey!
This god was a powerful being in ancient times. Unlike the Goddess of the Night, who has little faith, the God of Slaughter is second only to the four great god kings, and is also one of the strongest subordinate gods under the Dark Lord.
During the final battle of antiquity, Hershey followed the Dark Master and contended with the ancestor of the wizards.
And in the end, the Dark Lord fell.
The whereabouts of Hershey, the God of Slaughter, are therefore unknown. There are vague records in the books that he may have died together with the Dark Lord, but it is also possible that he was only seriously injured and dormant in the Lost Continent.
"In this case, it will be a bit difficult to handle."
Enzo frowned slightly, his eyes flashing with thought. According to the information recorded in the book, it did not clearly indicate that the God of Slaughter had fallen. Therefore, what did the location indicated on the God's Map represent?
"Old Snake must be hiding something that he hasn't told me!"
The person who really covets the Map of God is Old Snake who has been searching for thirty years. As an old monster who survived the ancient times, Old Snake has a lifespan even longer than the history of Phantom Crows, so he must know some ancient secrets.
.
For example, the character of the God of Slaughter, and the decisions he may make after the final battle and the death of the main god!
"This is the only information that can be found now."
Afterwards, Enzo put the books back on the bookshelf, shook his head and said, "Everything should be decided after Old Snake finds the last map."
"Are you leaving? Enzo." At this time, Brian flew over.
The bag of nuts just now had been eaten up by it, leaving nut shells on the ground. Fortunately, as the administrator, Brian had a lot of time to clean up the place after Enzo left.
"Goodbye, Brian."
Enzo took a deep breath, a smile appeared on his face, and said: "I hope I can see you again next time I come here!"
Then, Enzo turned around and left the library.
...
After leaving the white tower, Enzo returned to his own manor.
After Wizard Morgan used him to deal with Freeman, Enzo lost favor with the Kellett family. Although he still has the reputation of being a worshipper, he has deliberately distanced himself from the Kellett family in his heart.
In the evening, in a bedroom.
"The model of the second-ring witchcraft has been obtained. Next, I only need to crack it to further improve my strength!"
Enzo was sitting cross-legged on the bed, holding a witchcraft model in his hands.
This is something I got from the Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind auction, a second-level witchcraft Shadow Corps spell model. As long as it is cracked using a chip, Enzo can master the Shadow Corps technique.
Enzo had definitely heard of this second-ring witchcraft.
Shadow Assassin and Shadow Clone are both prerequisite skills for this spell. In addition, if you want to fully master the Shadow Corps, you need to learn hundreds of shadow witchcraft first.
Those are the prerequisite skills of Shadow Corps!
"The composition of high-level witchcraft is like a puzzle. The zero-level witchcraft as a prerequisite skill is all the pieces of the puzzle."
Enzo looked at the witchcraft model in his hand, an expression of understanding appeared on his face.
"Only when all the pieces are put together can the true picture of the puzzle be revealed, and that is also the principle of high-level witchcraft!"
"Chip, calculate the time required to decipher the Shadow Corps."
"Ding! According to the chip simulation calculation, the time required to decipher the Shadow Corps: 125 days, 7 hours and 30 minutes." Following Enzo's order, the chip quickly gave an accurate answer.
"About one hundred and twenty-six days, it's not bad."
Enzo nodded slightly, quite satisfied with this time. As the core ability of the second-level wizard, the second-level wizard is a top priority. Under normal circumstances, a newly promoted second-level wizard wants to master the second-level wizard.
For this technique, the time required is often calculated in years.
Deciphering the Shadow Corps within one hundred and twenty-six days can be regarded as an extraordinary speed.
"Next, let's start as soon as possible."
Enzo took a deep breath and began to inject magic power into the witchcraft model. The familiar dark light shone, as if the crystal-like witchcraft model began to slowly twist and shoot out shadowy light groups.
Each shadow light group represents a shadow witchcraft.
These include zero-ring spells such as Shadow Assassin, Shadow Clone, and Shadow Whip that Enzo has mastered.
And more, it is the shadow witchcraft that Enzo is not familiar with.
"The levels of witchcraft are divided from zero to three levels, corresponding to the apprentice level to the third level wizard level."
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Enzo began to decipher the witchcraft.
"It is said that when a third-level wizard or above reaches the level of the All-Spirit Wizard, simple changes in magic abilities are no longer able to meet the needs. Every All-Spirit Wizard will understand his own path when he is promoted."
"The bloodline wizard will further explore bloodline abilities, the mechanical wizard will undergo a more complete transformation, and the elemental wizard will create his own spell abilities based on his own attributes!"
"Now that I have chosen the path of a shadow wizard, when I am promoted to a universal wizard in the future, I will also create spells based on the shadow system!"
In the room, a dark light spreads.
Groups of shadow light merged into Enzo's body as the chip was decoded. Many spells appeared in his brain out of thin air, but Enzo did not panic at all. After being promoted to a second-level wizard, his soul had transformed into an extremely tough one.
As time goes by, more and more pieces of the puzzle are under Enzo's control.
"After being promoted to a second-level wizard, my soul has transformed twice, so it is very simple to master any number of zero rings."
"The more pieces you have, the clearer the puzzle becomes!"
"When all the pieces are brought together, the puzzle of the Shadow Corps will automatically appear. From the properties of this witchcraft, it is somewhat similar to the necromancy summoning witchcraft, which creates soldiers through shadows to form an army.
"
"However, if they are just pure shadow soldiers, the Shadow Corps will never be classified as a second-level witchcraft. Therefore, in addition to controlling the shadow soldiers to form a legion, this witchcraft has two other changes."
"The three form changes represent the three ways of using the Shadow Corps, which can cope with different combat situations!"
