It's really puzzling that I didn't know anything about the Magic Association, but I was able to get a special recruitment quota.
"It's not the magic you said."
Astarte took out a ruby and uttered a word.
A flame flickered in her palm.
Li Xiang was silent for a moment and asked, "You call this magic?"
His complaint was serious.
He wanted to know about his past life.
"You can think of it as magic in novels or movies."
Astarte didn't seem surprised and said, "But you have to remember that as a magician, you should not say the word magic easily."
Li Xiang nodded.
In Xingyue, the concept of magic is more like the laws of the world, each of which has unimaginable power.
"Let me give you a brief introduction. The Clock Tower is one of the three major departments of the Magic Association. It is located outside London and has a history of more than two thousand years. We manage, conceal and develop magic and are the most cutting-edge magic research structure."
Astarte paused, picked up a piece of paper, and continued reading with a normal expression:
"The Clock Tower is divided into twelve disciplines, general foundation, individual foundation, séance, ore, animal, inheritance, plant, celestial body, creation, curse, archeology and modern magic theory. Each discipline has its own magic.
The system, in theory, has no distinction between high and low.”
"I come from the Ore Department, and what I just used is gem magic, one of the Ore Department's magic systems. Different types and quantities of gems can be combined to create different magic."
Well, it just costs money.
Only suitable for magicians with money abilities.
Li Xiang thought of Tohsaka Rin, one of the heroines in "Fate/stay night".
What she uses is gem magic.
After her father Tosaka Tokiomi died, she was unable to afford the huge expenses and was forced to work part-time.
"According to the normal admission procedure, you need to study all basic subjects for five years. The main course is magician knowledge, and then transfer to other subjects, just like going from high school to university."
Astati glanced at the notice and said, "Well, you are a special admissions student and can skip all basic subjects."
"Special enrollment?"
Li Xiang looked at her and asked, "What's so special about me?"
"I'm quite curious too."
Astarte blinked meaningfully and said, "Originally, this spot belonged to the El-Melloi family, but it was temporarily replaced by you."
El-Melloi?
Li Xiang heard a familiar last name.
Related to it are Kenneth and Webb.
Both are participants in the Fourth Holy Grail War.
But the former was killed in battle, and the latter returned to the Clock Tower, inherited the title of El-Melloi, and became one of the twelve monarchs.
In the FGO mobile game, Weber borrowed the power of Zhuge Kongming and was summoned by the player as a follower.
"The Clock Tower has twelve disciplines and twelve monarchs. They are the figures who stand at the top of the magic world."
Astarte held up his chin with one hand and said, "Fortunately, Lord El-Melloi II is in deep trouble and probably won't interfere with your affairs."
If it is the second generation, then it refers to Weber.
Li Xiang quickly speculated that the current time point was just before the start of the Fifth Holy Grail War.
In the plot of "Lord El-Melloi II's Casebook".
It's not good to offend one of the protagonists at the beginning.
But considering Weber's character, he really doesn't look like a fussy magician.
"Originally, I was entrusted by the Lord of the Ore Division to invite you, but since you don't know much about the Clock Tower, you should read this book first."
Astati took out a book and handed it to Li Xiang.
"Thanks."
Li Xiang opened it directly.
He also had knowledge about the Clock Tower in his previous life, but it was all based on anime and was not very specific.
This "Introduction to the Twelve Subjects of the Clock Tower" is more detailed.
Astarte looked at him intently, her eyes as calm as space.
Half an hour later, Li Xiang raised his head and said, "I have basically understood."
“Have you decided which discipline to join?”
Astati tilted his head, "I would rather you join the Ore Division and become my junior."
A moment of cuteness.
Li Xiang was not affected.
His mind is not on women, but on the door to this new world.
"Are there any privileges for special admissions students?"
"It's okay to have a teacher."
Astati explained, "In the Clock Tower, lecturers and teachers are two different concepts. The former is only responsible for giving lectures, but the latter, in addition to being a lecturer, is also a master who teaches you one-on-one."
"If my senior sister can recommend a teacher for me, I can join the ore department."
Li Xiang thought for a while and said.
Under normal circumstances, he should choose the modern magic department and hang out with the protagonist Weber.
But he had offended him unintentionally, and the El-Melloi family had been in a bad way since Kenneth's death.
There is no need for Li Xiang to get involved in these struggles now.
Its plug-in is an emulator.
As long as he has enough talent, it will be easy for him to intervene.
"How clever."
Astati crossed her fingers and said, "I like you very much. You won't suffer any loss if you join the Ore Division."
Li Xiang ignored her joke and said, "I'm sorry, senior."
"The next step is to test the qualifications."
Astarte didn't mind retracting his finger and said, "The qualifications of a magician are determined by the magic circuits in the body. The so-called magic circuits can be understood as special nerves. Without them, magic cannot be used. The criterion for judging is the number of magic circuits.
and quality.”
"How to test?"
"It's very simple."
Astarte jumped off the table.
At this time, Li Xiang discovered that the girl was only about 1.5 meters tall, which was a head shorter than him.
Astarte also noticed the height problem. She stood on tiptoe slightly and stretched out her hand to press Li Xiang's head.
At the same time, he took out a blue gem with his left hand and crushed it into powder easily.
"..."
If Li Xiang remembers correctly, the hardness of sapphire is nine, second only to diamond's ten.
Astarte spat out a syllable.
A mysterious blue enveloped him.
Li Xiang suddenly felt a faint burning sensation in his right arm.
He opened his sleeves and saw three circuits.
"There are three magic circuits, but the quality is very high. Taken together, the magic qualification is A-level."
Astati took two steps back and said, "After turning on the magic circuit, your body will feel uncomfortable. The longer you use it, the more painful it will be. The switch of the magic circuit is called mental image. You can feel your mental image with your eyes closed."
Li Xiang closed his eyes when he heard this.
A sword comes to mind.
He controlled to close the magic circuit, and the faint blue light disappeared.
"You have five magical attributes: earth, water, fire, wind, and space."
Astarte continued, "There is no doubt that he is a magic genius, so it is reasonable for him to be specially recruited."
Li Xiang thought of his A-level talent magic wand.
There is no doubt that this is the embodiment of it.
"For more specific content, I will wait until we get to the clock tower and explain it to you in detail."
Astati took out a Nokia and handed it to him and said, "The latest model. Contact me when everything is ready."
[The host joins the clock tower and the time and space nodes are activated. 】
[Open the main world simulation, you can save, and return to the latest save after death. 】
[Open the host's properties panel.]
Li Xiang took the Nokia and couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay."
