The once prosperous mining area has been silent for hundreds of years. Since there are no longer any precious magic crystals, few people have visited the Roaring Valley since it was abandoned by Azurite City. And due to the pollution caused by long-term mining, this huge
There are very few animals and plants in the artificial valley. Only the bare black soil and the caves made of dark red rocks provide the only two monotonous colors here.
Moriarty walked into the valley alone, but did not stop. Instead, he followed a turbid stream that ran through the entire valley and gradually went deeper into the valley. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Moriarty did not see anyone else.
Anyone. After making a careful choice, Moriarty entered a cave located on a cliff about two stories high.
Entering the cave, Moriarty immediately lit a tinder that he carried with him for lighting. Of course, if he is a mid-level or high-level mage, he will directly condense a flash ball with his own magic power when facing the darkness. But he is still a mage.
Moriarty, an apprentice, naturally cannot afford such luxury.
The cave is roughly two meters high, straight, and about ten meters deep. Therefore, Moriarty did not feel much depression or stuffiness when he entered it. When he reached the deepest part of the cave, Moriarty gently used his sleeves to lift his hair.
I wiped away some dust on the ground, then sat down and took out the two borrowed books from my sleeve pocket.
Opening "The Theory of the Mage Class", Moriarty quickly turned the pages to the chapter about high-level wizards, and then quickly read it word for word. About ten minutes later, Moriarty opened another book "Elemental Realm, Magic"
"Inner World". This time, Moriarty started from the first page and read it carefully. Although compared with the previous "The Theory of the Mage Class", "Elemental Realm, the Inner World of Magic" is just a small-faced semi-thesis guide.
books, but it took Moriarty a full three hours to finally finish reading.
"It's really..." Moriarty put down the book and took a deep breath, his expression gloomy.
Then, after calming down for a while, Moriarty closed his eyes and re-entered the state of introspection.
At this time, Moriarty's soul was still in the same state as it was a few hours ago: the crystal book was dormant quietly in the depths of the soul, crystal clear; above the soul, the red gold ball of light was still suspended, accompanied by the slowly falling fire aura.
, slightly undulating.
After taking a look at the crystal book without any condition, Moriarty focused his inner gaze on the red gold ball of light. At the same time, paragraph after paragraph of words he had just read slowly flowed into Moriarty's heart.
Pass.
"Mage apprentice, low-level mage, mid-level mage, high-level mage, great arcanist, maybe in the eyes of vulgar people, this is the sequence of the entire mage world, but in my opinion, those who can really be called mage are just
They are high-level and great arcanists. As for the others, they are just low-level ants, and they are not even as high as a human being..."
"For any mage, level nine is a critical node that cannot be avoided. Only by crossing this barrier can a mage enter the true core of the magical world and explore the endless mysteries..."
"Although it is just a pseudo-field, high-level mage can truly grasp the pulse of magic elements. From this moment on, the mage is no longer the slave of the elements, but becomes its master..."
"Because it cannot be materialized, the pseudo-realm of high-level mages is usually regarded as invisible and illusory. Some extremists even claim that the so-called pseudo-realm is just an imaginary psychological suggestion. In addition to providing
Except for the pitiful confidence of a high-level mage, it is not worth a copper coin..."
"However, perhaps those necromancers who were ruthlessly expelled by Brakada seem to have more say in the pseudo-realm. Because they are proficient in certain special necromancy spells and often deal with souls, there are more than one in history.
High-level necromancers have announced that they have discovered a tangible pseudo-realm. According to the descriptions of these high-level necromancers, the origin of the pseudo-realm is actually an 'arcane core' born from the soul of the mage. The arcane core is like
It is a key to unlock the magic element controller, which can help the mage summon and control the power of the elements more efficiently. There is even a high-level necromancer named 'Inekalena' who once observed the arcane elements he observed.
The magic core was recorded through magic rubbing. This is the famous painting "Inekalena's Smile" in the magic world. In this rubbing, what people see is a gray soul and a ball of
The black ball floating above the head of his soul. However, most of the mages in Brakada do not recognize the theory of the arcane core proposed by the necromancers. Of course, discrimination and prejudice account for the majority of this.
, or there is still jealousy..."
"Arcane Core... Pseudo Domain..."
Moriarty observed the ball of red gold light steadily for a long time. Finally, seemingly determined to uncover the answer to the mystery, Moriarty broke away from his inner vision and began to slowly concentrate.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly, a red-gold light flashed in Moriarty's eyes. Then, one after another, red light spots as fine as dust suddenly appeared from the void. In the air, on the rock wall,
Including the earth and rocks under his feet, countless light spots slowly surrounded him with the unmistakable aura of the fire element, turning into a slowly rotating fire-colored light that danced up and down around Moriarty.
At this moment, Moriarty was like a blazing magnet, guiding the fire element to dance happily.
"This...is really...a realm..." Moriarty was stunned as he looked at the fire elemental light strips that were constantly dancing in front of him.
At this moment, Moriarty no longer needs to seek confirmation from any other books or papers. Because he is already sure that the red gold ball of light suspended above his soul is a fire arcane core, and he already has it.
The fire element domain (pseudo) that only high-level mages can have.
Silently feeling the powerful power brought by the fire arcane core, Moriarty felt crazy. As a mere mage apprentice, he obtained the arcane core, gave birth to the elemental realm (pseudo), and brought the crystal book to Moria
The magic of Ti has once again exceeded the limits of human imagination. Even gods would not dare to have such delusions.
Through his thoughts, the countless fire element light points drifted up or down, left or right according to Moriarty's will. He finally understood the reason why high-level mages are called masters of elements. There are
With the help of the elemental realm (pseudo), Moriarty can even command the fire elements gathered in front of him to march in a military parade.
After spending another hour in excitement, thinking and constant testing, Moriarty slowly put away his fire elemental domain (pseudo). Like the crystal book, this newly acquired domain became a domain that only belonged to Moriarty.
are top secret and must be strictly kept.
After packing up the two magic books and dusting off his robe, Moriarty quickly left the cave. At this time, it was already dusk outside. When Moriarty returned to the entrance of Roaring Valley, the carriage was waiting.
There it is.
Seeing Moriarty approaching, the coachman immediately greeted him with a smile on his face: "Master, please get in the car."
"Yes." Moriarty nodded and stepped into the carriage. After he sat firmly, the carriage immediately started.
It seems that they want to rush back to Azure City before nightfall, so the carriage returns significantly faster than when it came. Although the area near Azure City is actually a safe zone, and there are no terrible creatures such as bandits or beasts, but
For ordinary people, the wilderness at night is still a frightening place.
At about six o'clock, the carriage re-entered the Blue Crystal City. Moriarty did not stop, but asked the coachman to drive directly to Hockenheim. Half an hour later, the carriage stopped smoothly in Fountain Square. Another harvest was obtained.
After receiving a golden gold coin, the coachman left happily.
Walking into the academy, Moriarty went straight to the library and returned two borrowed books to the administrator, and then slowly left, heading towards the Mage Tower.
Entering the mage tower, Moriarty saw Heyna busy in the kitchen, but the two hired mage apprentices seemed to have left.
"Moriarty, you are finally back. How is your wound? Is the pain getting worse?" Seeing Moriarty, Heyana immediately put down her work and trotted towards him.
"It's nothing, I'm fine." Looking at the concerned look on the girl's face, Moriarty smiled guiltily and asked, "Why did you cook for yourself again today?"
"You were injured, so I specially made canned reindeer meat and isinglass soup. These are very good for physical injuries." He gently pressed Moriarty's wound and looked at his lover again.
With an expression on her face, Haierna confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the bandaging of the wound, and then she said with relief.
"Okay, I like it very much." Looking into the girl's eyes, Moriarty slowly lowered his head and kissed her gently on the face.
"Ah! You should wash your face first. The food will be ready soon." Upon receiving this "surprise attack", Heyena's face turned as red as an apple and she quickly fled back to the kitchen, not daring to look at Moria again.
Di.
That night, under the supervision of Heyna, Moriarty ate a whole can of venison stew by himself, and also destroyed half a pot of delicious fish maw soup. Seeing that Moriarty was eating happily,
Hae Na also had a happy expression on her face.
After dinner, Heyana refused Moriarty's request for help and drove him back to the assistant floor's workroom alone.
