In the early morning, the bright but not blazing sunlight shone into Downey's bedroom through the window, dyeing everything golden.
Downey was pacing back and forth with black eyes, as if he couldn't sleep all night.
Today is the day when the admission results of the "Unified Entrance Examination for Higher Schools of Magic" are announced. Even though he is quite confident about his performance, he still feels uneasy and has trouble sleeping as he has no way out.
"It's okay. Whether it's theoretical subjects, spellcasting tests, or additional tests, I've done very well. Unless all outstanding apprentices have applied for Heidler Magic Academy this year..." Downey comforted himself in a low voice.
At this time, the bell rang, melodious and melodious. Downey froze, and quickly turned on the "home TV" embedded on the wall. He saw the snowflake-like white dots on it continuously producing ripples, gradually revealing an ear.
Pointy and beautiful elf.
"Welcome to all of you to watch our 'Good Morning Nature' program as soon as possible. I believe you in front of the TV have been impatient to wait. Haha, I am holding in my hand the admission list of this year's major magic schools." The elf on the TV
He picked up the parchment in front of him and waved it. There was a red string tied on the outside, with a raised magic emblem printed on it.
This is the school channel of the "Heart of Nature" Magic School. There is an hour-long program every morning, noon, and evening. It mainly reports on various things that happen in the school and reports on the various bad or funny mistakes made by the apprentices.
"Share" with everyone, and introduce the need for nature protection, show the natural beauty of various places, etc.
Looking at the roll of parchment with unknown layers, Downey felt his heartbeat getting faster and faster. Even if he held his breath, he could still hear it beating thumpingly.
The elf put down the parchment and said with a smile: "Our apprentices have performed very well this year, and the proportion of admissions is higher than before. Of course, there must be some who are almost successful, but don't be disappointed, you can choose to enter the Stroup Forest.
, further training as a druid. After years of hard research by arcanists, magic apprentices can easily transform into 'natural guardians', that is, druid apprentices..."
Her words made Donnie's forehead veins jump. The most important thing at this time is to announce the list. Why do you talk so much? Are you accumulating everyone's anxiety and uneasiness? Are you provoking everyone?
Fortunately, the elf lady didn't talk too much, and quickly lifted the seal of the magic crest, tore off the red rope, and unfolded the parchment: "The admission list of Holt Magic Academy is announced below. Those whose names are read are
Apprentices please go to the principal’s office after nine o’clock to receive your acceptance letter and award.”
There are currently only nine magic schools. There are almost three to four hundred magic schools around the world. Being admitted is an honor for the apprentices and the school. Therefore, the principal of the "Heart of Nature" Magic School
The admission letter will be issued in person. Therefore, as long as the apprentices who enter the magic school do not relax, be lazy, or give up, they are expected to become official magicians.
"Holt Academy of Magic..." Downey became more and more anxious and anxious as he listened, and each familiar name deepened this feeling. However, the elf anchor did not read out the admission list of Heidler Academy of Magic until the end.
Downey held his breath again, pressing his right hand on the left side of his chest, feeling the intense ups and downs that seemed to jump out of his chest.
"...Guderian...Caroline...David..." The elf anchor read out Donnie's very familiar names one after another. Just when he could no longer stand the heartbeat and terrible pressure, "Donnie"
This word finally came out from the speakers of the home TV. It was so sweet. So beautiful!
Downey felt as if he had been struck by a bolt of lightning. His whole body was numb and his muscles were stiff. Then, he waved his arms vigorously, but his body collapsed weakly.
Finally succeeded!
Your life and that of your family will change starting today!
…………
In the "Knowledge Bookstore", Doros looked at Downey who had arrived belatedly, looking at him with owl-like eyes that still showed excitement and joy, and smiled slightly: "Admitted?"
"Yes, Hedler Academy of Magic, body structure and genetic factors." No matter who he saw today, Downey smiled brightly.
As the research in the microscopic field becomes more detailed and in-depth, as the model of the nature of the world and the essence of magic is roughly established, and as this influence spreads to all major fields, the arcanists find that the vastness and vastness of knowledge has surpassed that of themselves and others.
The limit of learning ability is no longer the same as before. You can learn the basics of each faction and then choose the field you are good at. You must clarify the direction of your development from the beginning and lay a solid foundation from the beginning. It is difficult for people who are not talented.
In addition to basic learning in your own field, you should also consider other aspects.
Of course, after becoming intermediate or high-level magicians and extending their lives, arcanists still have to go back and relearn the basics of the three major factions of astrology, elements and necromancy. The former involves prophecy, destiny and other things, and if they do not learn
If you do, you will be at a great disadvantage. The microscopic realm of elemental factions is the essence of it and the basis for many future studies. If you don’t have any understanding of it, the most in-depth research in your own direction may be difficult.
The necromancy system is necessary to prolong life. This does not require mastery of it, but at least a corresponding foundation.
Doros nodded lightly and closed the book in front of him: "Congratulations, Downey. I hope you can achieve remarkable success in the necromancy department in the future."
"Thank you, Mr. Doros." Downey replied with a smile on his face.
Doros looked inside the bookstore and saw that there were no customers at the moment, so he laughed and said: "Donnie, what the Necromancer Department needs to solve urgently is the soul composition model, the genetic factor model and the true principle of the 'primary body'.
If you can uncover the secret of inheritance, you will definitely win the Evans Arcana Award and the Immortal Throne Award, and you may not be able to become a Grand Arcanist or a legendary magician. This is the direction of your efforts."
Donnie scratched his head and felt very embarrassed by Doros's encouragement: "How can I solve this? I have no foundation at all. Uh, Mr. Doros, you also know about the 'Primary Body'?"
He was keenly aware of this unusual word and asked curiously.
Doros lowered his gaze and looked at the book in front of him: "Have you heard of the 'Primary Body'? Even in the necromancy system, there are not many arcane masters who still understand it and are still studying it, and so do I.
I just found out about it because an old friend happened to be trying this."
"I heard a candidate mention it during the Unified Entrance Examination..." Downey suddenly felt that his question was a bit dangerous, but he could only answer it bravely.
Doros made a soft ooh and said with a smile: "Since you have heard about it, I can tell you in detail. This is the ancient Meshket Empire..."
He roughly told the origin and evolution of the "Primary Body", and Donnie listened very attentively. Although he had been "popularized" by Karl, and Karl's description was more detailed, how could he be in the mood at the time?
Go and listen carefully.
"...The characteristics of the ritual of returning to the origin of life include a group of obliquely inserted tombstones, and there are no clothes on the corpse in the coffin...all the corpses are filled into the wooden figure buried deep in the core..." As he was talking, Doros suddenly
He sighed: "I heard that the 'Eternal Sleep Cemetery' outside Heidler Magic Academy contains this secret. Unfortunately, I am not qualified to visit this so-called most mysterious and unique magic academy..."
Is this secret hidden outside Hedler Academy of Magic?
Downey is looking forward to his life at the Magic Academy. If he can find the corresponding information and decipher some secrets from the "Eternal Sleep Cemetery", then his strength may be improved rapidly.
Doros coughed, stopped mentioning the "Primary Body", talked about the necromancy system in general, and then sent Donnie to work.
…………
Woo!
Bang, bang, bang!
The long magic steam train stopped on a hazy and gray platform. Downey carried his old black suitcase and couldn't wait to get off the train.
"Is this Heidler?" Downey looked around excitedly and curiously. He saw that the sky was gray and dim, as if solidified, and there was always a faint haze surrounding him. In the distance, towering black magic towers were visible.
It has a completely different style from other cities on the mainland.
It is worthy of being the headquarters of the necromancy system... Downey has no fear or fear. He has been mentally prepared and feels that such a style can match Heidler's reputation.
It was mid-August, and the sun outside was blazing, but when it shone into Heidler, it was only left with a pale white color, making people feel cold from the inside.
Downey withdrew his gaze from a distance and looked for the sign on the platform - after he completed the contract with Doros, it was too late to go home. After all, Heidler was the first to enroll in the magic academy.
"Freshmen of the Magic Academy, please gather at No. 152 Ghoul Street..." Downey quickly found the notice and read out the content.
"How to get to Ghoul Street?" Downey frowned, looking at the Heidler map he bought from the merchant on the train. It was so winding and winding that it made people dizzy.
After looking around, Downey carried his suitcase and walked quickly to a staff member who was busy cleaning the platform: "Hello, can I ask the way out? I am a freshman at Heidler Academy of Magic."
The staff member suddenly raised his head, and saw that the muscles on his face had rotted away, revealing the pale bones, and there were two deep black holes left in the eye sockets. Downey almost screamed in fear.
Although he had dissected corpses, summoned zombies, and refined and stitched corpses, it was still extremely terrifying to suddenly encounter a rotting corpse in broad daylight without any psychological preparation.
The "staff member" shook his head with difficulty, then buried his head and continued to clean the platform.
This is Handler... Downey's tone has changed dramatically.
"Donny!" A familiar voice came from far away. Donny turned around in surprise and saw someone waving his arms at the entrance of the platform. The ghost behind him also waved his vague hands. It was Sammy.
