Chapter four hundred and forty second wind and clouds
Sun Ran has lived in seclusion in Muxi Town for a year. Naturally, the plan to become a god in the mage world will not stop because of him, and the whole world is still moving forward steadily.
In one year, the situation in the mainland has changed drastically.
North, the headquarters of the Magician Federation.
The great magician Simon suddenly ran out of the meditation room, laughed wildly, and shouted at everyone he saw: "I understand! I understand! I know why Russell can release the forbidden spell! I finally figured it out!"
In the next three days, Simon used his superb magical power to conquer the famous great magicians in the north one after another, and became the number one magician in the northern continent.
In the northern continent, the magic of the great magician Simon is unstoppable!
Later, news came out of Isenberg that the great magician Simon called on the Asaph continent to form the Northern Alliance.
The major kingdoms responded to the power of Simon's forbidden curse, and the Northern Alliance began to take shape.
south.
The Tower of the Sages.
At the top of the Star Observation Tower, a young magician who was sitting quietly with his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes filled with ecstasy, and whispered to himself: "It turns out that the world is like this."
This young magician's name was Lanlos, the great magician. The next day, his power was recognized by the three sages and he became the number one magician under the three sages in the south.
Almost at the same time, the city of Sparta captured the city of Athens and unified the Olympus continent, known as the Spartan Empire.
More importantly, the Spartan Empire successfully gained recognition from the Tower of Philosophers, received magical support from the Tower of Philosophers, and was established as orthodox.
As a result, the high-spirited Spartan emperor began to prepare to march north to the Asaph continent.
Nearly two thousand kilometers north of the Sage's Tower is Muxi Town, where Sun Ran is located.
Amidst the swirling torrents, Muxi Town remains very calm. All the torrents are affected by some kind of force and deliberately avoid this town.
As a patient, Venus was still recuperating in Sun Ran's wooden house, while Athena, her owl incarnation was boiled into broth by Sun Ran, and had no choice but to attach herself to a black-browed snake at home.
At night, the two had a voice conversation.
"I have just received news that Lanlos of the Tower of Sages has understood the preliminary secrets of the legendary realm. Within two years, he will definitely be promoted to legend. I heard that Simon, the incarnation of Master Merlin, has obtained the same secret in the north.
, half-footed into the realm of legend. There are also several young great magicians who are about to break through." Athena's snake body was entangled on the bedpost.
"All geniuses are striving to move forward. This Russell has already realized this two years ago. He should have been the first to be promoted to legend, but he is still living in seclusion in this miserable place!" Venus said bitterly.
Russell, his power was originally at the forefront of this era, and the geniuses of his generation could only hold back, but he stopped and was suddenly caught up.
This is such a pity.
"Good fortune plays tricks on people. There is nothing we can do about it. You have been observing for three days. Have you found anything?" Athena asked.
Venus shook his head: "I can't tell you exactly. He is often in a daze, and I don't know what he is thinking. Even if I ask him, he won't tell me. I feel vaguely that he is thinking about magic."
"Are you sure?" Athena's attention was attracted.
"Not sure. But his expression is very focused, just like when he was learning magic. Wait until tomorrow morning. I will test him and see his reaction."
"OK."
Early the next morning.
Sun Ran got up, took the earthenware pot on the stove as usual, and filled two bowls of polenta with minced meat. He ate one bowl for himself and gave the other bowl to Venus who was sleeping on the makeshift wooden bed.
Venus's illness had almost recovered. She drank a few mouthfuls of porridge and suddenly said: "Russell, your name is very similar to that of a magician in the north."
"Oh, it's a coincidence." Sun Ran didn't have any unusual reaction.
"I heard before that Simon, the great magician in the north, has understood the secret of the forbidden spell and is about to become a legendary mage."
Sun Ran's movements were stagnant. He didn't expect Simon to enter the country so quickly, but it didn't matter, so he continued to drink porridge and said casually: "He is really awesome."
Venus stared closely at Sun Ran and naturally observed this reaction. She smiled again and said: "When you went out yesterday, I went to the cellar to get something and found this thing."
Venus waved a blue-grey stick in her hand and asked with a smile: "Is it the magician's staff?"
Venus holds a gray wooden stick in her hand, which is the World Shard Staff.
Sun Ran was startled and shook his head: "No, it's just an ordinary stick."
"What about this one? It's also an ordinary stick?" Venus took out the guardian staff again. This staff was pure white and extremely delicate. You could tell it was a staff at a glance.
Sun Ran was silent, finished the polenta in a few mouthfuls, then walked forward, took two staffs, and threw them in the corner: "That's all in the past, don't mention it anymore."
"Then you are really a magician?" Venus chased after her, but Russell didn't even get angry. She thought it was an opportunity.
Sun Ran said nothing.
"You are Russell! The Russell from the north! Your name is spread all over the southern continent. People say you killed Medusa and killed the giant beast in the sea. They say you are a hero." Venus continued to add fuel to the fire.
Sun Ran felt that at this time, the Battle of the Gods was imminent, and it was time for him to regain his magic, so he stopped denying it and said painfully: "So what? I am a great magician, what is the use? My sister is dead.
, those who were killed by me were killed by my magic. My magic brought me disaster!"
"It was just an accident!" Venus persuaded.
Sun Ran sat on a stool, holding his head in his hands, and said painfully: "Can an accident atone for my sin? I can't forgive myself."
The effect was unexpectedly good. Venus knew that she had found the crux of the problem, and she should work harder to get Russell out of the quagmire of pain and self-blame.
She got up from putting on her clothes, walked forward, patted Sun Ran's back gently, and gently comforted him: "Russell, you shouldn't be like this. Your sister definitely doesn't want you to be like this. You should cheer up."
"Stop talking. I will not forgive myself. I will never use magic again in my whole life." Sun Ran said.
"But you are thinking about magic. Magic is your whole life!" Venus said.
Sun Ran was silent.
Silence is acquiescence, Venus continued to persuade: "You are born for magic, Russell."
Sun Ran still didn't speak.
Venus continued: "You also got the treasure map fragments of Solomon's treasure. If you hold them, if you don't cause trouble for others, others will also cause trouble for you."
"How do you know I have this?" Sun Ran raised his head and asked.
"The one-armed captain you rescued was troubled by someone because of the fragments of the treasure map. He turned you in. The entire southern continent knew that you had the fragments on your body. If you don't use magic, your fate can be imagined."
Sun Ran's expression was gloomy and uncertain. After a long time, he finally said, "Stop talking and let me think about it again."
Venus was overjoyed and stopped urging her.
This day, Sun Ran didn't speak.
Venus did not persuade him, she just settled down to recuperate. She believed that Russell had listened to her words and was just thinking now.
At night.
Athena came and asked, "How are things?"
"It's almost no problem. If I had known it was so easy, I would still go to such great lengths to seduce him. I'm so stupid." Venus regretted it.
"That's not true. If a stranger said these words to Russell, he wouldn't listen at all and would just be dismissive. Your previous actions have already made Russell recognize you to a certain extent. For him,
, your words have weight."
"That's right. That's not a waste of time."
"Tomorrow, I will arrange for a level seven flying dragon to come to the town to do evil. Then you persuade Russell to kill the dragon. You know, Russell is actually very soft-hearted. He will never sit idly by and will definitely listen to you. As long as he takes action
, the knot in my heart will be broken.”
"Okay." Venus nodded, then turned to look at Russell, who was sleeping on the other side of the room, with some worry: "He hasn't touched magic for more than a year. I don't know if he has maintained his power."
"It's not that it's a step back, it's probably just a bit rusty." Athena guessed.
