West Railway Station is in the outer city, and Faling Tower is in the inner city.
Tram buses shuttled through every street, with all kinds of passengers coming and going, but Duke was always sitting in the window seat, admiring every scene.
"Like the European cities described in the textbook during the First Industrial Revolution..."
"It's like a new cyberpunk world..."
In addition to billowing black smoke and sewage flowing across the city, Shenjiao City also has flashing neon lights and busy traffic. The prosperous charm of technology and the filth of life are separated from each other and yet fit together so well.
But once you get to the inner city, the dirty scenes gradually become less common.
Tall tower-shaped buildings are lined up in rows, and villas with gardens are scattered around the low hills. Patrol knights riding cool mounts maintain law and order, shuttles fly close to the ground, and cars drive slowly by.
Compared to the rampage in the outer city, although there are many people in the inner city, it is orderly.
"We've arrived at Faling Tower Station!" The conductor shouted at the top of his voice before the tram bus stopped.
Duke quickly stood up and stood next to the car door. After the car stopped, he got off the car. Several others got off at the same time. One of them, a middle-aged man, had the same destination as Duke. <
/p>
"You're from out of town?" Seeing Duke looking around, the middle-aged man suddenly asked.
"Uh, yes."
"What are you here for?"
"Registered Spiritual Apprenticeship."
"Well, did you take the awakening potion?"
"How did you guess that?" Duke simply walked behind the middle-aged man.
"No one would trust a genius to go to the Faling Tower to register alone, because he has been robbed by others." The middle-aged man walked to the gate of the Faling Tower, turned to the two security guards standing guard, and said, "He is with me.
of."
"Okay, Mr. Willigan." The security guard stopped checking Duke's identity.
Duke entered the gate and asked out of curiosity: "Mr. Welgun, did you not ask me for advice?"
"The Meditation Recorder is just an ordinary employee." Will just waved his hand, "You go directly to the lobby, and there will be a dedicated clerk to help you complete the registration of spiritual apprentices. After you have registered and come to receive the meditation method,
We can meet again."
As soon as Will finished speaking, he hurriedly left with his briefcase.
"Thank you."
Duke thanked him and walked decisively to the hall.
Many people had gathered at the front desk to handle various businesses. Duke was queuing up to listen to what business they were doing. He found that there were people who were re-applying for qualification certificates, people who were exchanging arcane templates, and people who were assessing apprenticeship levels.
Some people have applied for private teaching. In short, Faling Tower’s business scope is quite broad.
"Next one."
"Hello, I'm here to register as a spiritual apprentice."
"Is there a recommendation list?"
"Here."
"Tom, someone has registered as a spiritual apprentice, take him over." The clerk at the front desk of the lobby immediately shouted.
Soon a young man with a pockmarked face took the recommendation form from the Faling Society in Sheshou Town, glanced at the contents on the form, and then glanced at Duke: "Follow me."
Perhaps it is stated on the recommendation form that Duke took drugs to open up the spiritual sea.
Or maybe Tom himself is relatively reticent.
The two of them were silent along the way. They climbed up a flight of stairs one after another, then turned a corner in the corridor and came to a room with a "Linghai Sensing Center" hanging on it.
There are many staff busy inside.
Tom waited for a while with Duke, and after finding an opening, he quickly handed over the recommendation form: "Linghai has started testing, please excuse me."
Someone soon came over and led Duke to a machine full of texture. The machine was wrapped in non-metallic materials, with a crystal ball placed in the middle.
"Put your hand on it and meditate on your own spiritual sea." said the old man who controlled the machine.
Duke complied.
Touching the crystal ball with both hands, your mind instantly enters your own spiritual sea.
As soon as they entered, Xiaoyi's thoughts came from the exchange: "Master, there is power that seems to be rubbing the master's spiritual sea."
Duke has already inquired about relevant matters: "This is reflecting my spiritual sea to test my spiritual arcane talent. Xiaoyi, can you hide yourself and Sha Ying?"
"Of course."
"That's good, you hide it. I also want to know how high my spiritual arcane talent is." Duke decided.
When he heard someone say "Okay, you can let it go," he opened his eyes and found that the non-metallic plates around the machine reflected many light spots, which were somewhat similar to the starlight distribution in Du Linghai.
"Element affinity: low... Energy stability: medium... Spiritual absorption efficiency: low... Comprehensive judgment of talent is low." The old man announced the test results, and then stamped his seal on the form.
"Um..."
Duke was a little regretful, but not too disappointed.
Most spiritual seas that are opened by taking drugs have very low talent. In fact, even if the spiritual sea is opened naturally, the probability of low talent is still very high. But talent is just a parameter, according to the book "Opening the Spiritual Arcana"
,Talent does not determine the height of spiritual arcane magic. There are many examples of spiritual apprentices with low talent becoming powerful arcane mages.
"And I have Jiuhuan Xiaoyi, so sooner or later I will be able to get to the Nine Rings!"
Duke is undeterred.
But from Tom's eyes, I saw a trace of lightly concealed contempt.
"Let's go Duke, Linghai has been tested and it's time to officially register." Tom said hello and stopped talking. He just helped Duke complete all the procedures step by step.
Finally.
I paid the handling fee and production cost of a Silver Dragon.
Duke got his spiritual apprentice certificate, a magic card as thin as a bank card, with a light green background. Duke's information was not written directly on it, but only a tall and magnificent tower-like building - located on the seventh floor.
Faling Tower Headquarters in the capital of the Tower Federation.
"When you advance to the first level, you can replace the blue magic card. I guess you won't need it... Keep this magic card well. If it is lost, ten silver dragons will be needed to replace it."
Tom said casually: "Spiritual apprentices are divided into five levels, from one star to five stars. You are now a one-star spiritual apprentice. Every time you upgrade, you can come and swipe your card to adjust your level. Okay, now I will take you to choose the meditation method.
."
Duke put away his magic card and followed quickly.
When he chose the meditation method, he saw Weir Gang again who led him in. However, the other party did not say anything special and said in a business-like tone: "Your talent is on the low side, with three basic attributes, elemental affinity and spiritual absorption.
None of them work, only the energy stability is okay. I suggest you choose the "Rock Meditation Method" to practice."
Duke thought for a while and replied: "Mr. Weirgan, can I learn about other meditation methods before I choose?"
"Okay, Ruixi, you can introduce the apprentice-level meditation method to him."
Ruixi is Weir Gang's female assistant, with quite plump breasts, slightly rough facial contours, and a thick voice: "The Magic Spirit Pagoda has been improved over the years, and a total of five meditation methods have been deduced that are most suitable for spiritual apprentices to practice, namely "Colorful"
"Meditation Method", "Rock Meditation Method", "Vortex Meditation Method", "Blank Paper Meditation Method" and "Field Meditation Method"..."
