When Salin's Mind Power was less than ten percent recovered, he woke up. Schika sat beside him, hugging her knees and looking at him.
"Schika, do you like it?"
"Yes."
"We're going to have a child, so I have to think about your safety." Salin blinked and held Schika's hand.
"What if you want to have a child with someone else?"
"Someone else? Who is it? "Salin looked confused.
"Hmph, you have a lot of women around you." Schika pretended to be angry, but she wouldn't let go of Salin's hand.
"There are quite a few, but none of them can be provoked." Salin laughed and pulled Shika down, letting her lie down beside him.
"I want to change my mind." Schika lay down beside Salin obediently.
"Change your mind? What idea? "
"I suddenly don't want you to marry another woman," Schika said.
"Then don't," Salin replied indifferently.
"No, I won't be satisfied if someone else marries a woman like Rex. Hmph, if she becomes your wife, won't she be better than me? "Schika asked.
Salin was speechless. What Schika said made sense logically. He still liked Schika the most. If Rex married him, that wouldn't change. Sigh, what was he thinking? Rex … was there any hope for him? Schika was still the best.
Schika turned to face Salin. "Salin, let me tell you, at my age, it's not impossible for me to become a Nature Priest. If I marry you, I won't have the right. If I become a Nature Priest, I will live as long as you. That way, I can stay with you for the rest of my life. If I marry you and I die a hundred years later, you'll still find another woman. Why not let me live a bit longer? At least I can keep an eye on you. I definitely won't let you marry someone who isn't suitable. "
Salin had heard a little about Nature Priests, but hearing it from Schika, he was still very excited. "Schika, you said you can live for twelve hundred years?"
"That's not it. Priests of Nature can live longer. Therefore, you have to work hard in your cultivation. You must break through the boundary of the ninth rank. Otherwise, if you die, I will be very lonely. "
"I will!" Salin was excited. "Shika, I'm going to cultivate now …"
"What's the rush? Lie down with me."
Salin smiled awkwardly. Why was his mood so unstable recently? Perhaps it was because he had reached the peak of level-six magic and was about to advance. This time, it affected his emotions, because advancing to the High Mage realm involved the issue of his soul.
As expected, Salin did not do anything that day. He accompanied Shika and chatted all the time. At night, Sicar stayed in Salin's room, and Neris did not disturb him this time. She herself was also in a daze. After absorbing the power of the Undead Sovereign, she did not have time to completely digest it and woke up early, causing her to be unable to concentrate.
She could only find time to sleep more in order to completely digest the power of the Undead Lord. Nelis was also helpless.
Without Nelis to disturb them, Salin and Shika finally had some private space to enjoy themselves. There was no need to talk about Shika's physical fitness. Ever since Salin comprehended the laws of energy balance and endless growth, his physical fitness had unknowingly improved greatly. The two lingered until dawn before resting.
In the shrine, there were many people who had a sleepless night. The most excited one was Isabella. She lived on the same floor as the mages of Serg Island. Because she had become Salin's follower, she could go to the alchemy laboratory and use all the equipment.
Isabella was Salin's follower, but her status was not low. Salin was the master of this city, and had enough wealth to support his followers. Isabella was assigned two magic apprentices to serve her, and four undead souls to help her with dangerous experiments.
The two magic apprentices were very respectful to her. Isabella casually asked about her salary, and only then did she know that apart from gold coins, she could also get a mid-level magic core for free every day. A mid-level magic core could allow a mage to practice magic for an entire day, and it was enough to absorb the power inside.
In addition, the laboratory was also open to Salin's followers. There were all kinds of magic materials inside. If Isabella needed anything that wasn't in the storage room, she could ask Salin. Salin would think of a way to get it.
There was usually no limit to the consumption of magic for magic experiments, but she had to keep a magic note to record the consumption and the reasons for failure.
The concentration of elements in the shrine was no worse than any Mage Tower. Seeing such a good training environment, Isabella felt completely balanced.
After preparing a magic experiment on the alchemy table, Isabella took a magic note from the bookshelf and started reading. After reading the first three pages, Isabella was a little surprised. This magic note was copied, and there were no secret notes left by the original author, so there was no way to find any magic tricks. However, the content was genuine!
Isabella was a magic genius with a solid foundation. Her teacher was only a Level Six mage, and he died of old age when she was 12. She did not advance to become a Magic Shooter, but Isabella advanced to Level Six when she was in her twenties, and at the same time, she practiced sword aura. Her understanding of magic was no worse than the mages in Alchemy City.
Looking at the copy of these magic notes, Isabella could not help but be amazed. These beginner notes were clearly written by a Magic Shooter, and they were all memories of low-level magic, the details and principles of some beginner magic, and many scattered magic experiments.
This was equivalent to having a Magic Shooter teaching you, and the content of the teaching was the Magic Shooter's specialty, and it was unique knowledge. Isabella had once advanced to Level Six, but she was obsessed with the content.
In the eyes of a Magic Shooter, even low-level magic had an incomparably deep meaning. Isabella's teacher was not a powerful mage, and had not even advanced to Magic Shooter. To Isabella, these magic notes were incomparably precious.
Only after reading through the notes a few times did Isabella realize that it was already late at night. Two magic apprentices were still waiting on the side.
She said a little embarrassedly, "You guys go rest, I might have to wait until dawn."
"Sir, it's nothing. We'll be paid to accompany you. Many laboratories on this level are open, and the Great Mages are full of energy. Many of them do not rest and carry out magic experiments for days on end. We apprentices can even earn a little more by serving you, and we'll often be taught. We can also borrow these equipment when you're here. "
"You guys …" Isabella suddenly stopped. She felt that the two apprentices' accents were very strange. They did not sound like people from Qin Yin, nor did they sound like people from Tanggulas. But then she realized that it was not a good idea to ask about the background of Sallin's subordinates.
The other apprentice smiled and said, "Sir, you can talk to us about anything you want. Mr. Sallin's followers are one of us. "
This apprentice was very smart and saw Isabella's hesitation. He came from Seriger Island, and his identity was indeed kept secret from outsiders. But Sallin had reminded them that there was no need to do that for followers. Once the follower's contract was signed, these people would be completely tied to Sallin's future, and there was no possibility of betrayal.
This was the reason why a Magician would attract many followers if they were wealthy.
"Anything?" Isabella came from Tanggulas, where mages were not treated well. Her followers were all swordsmen, and there was no way they could afford mages. That Level-7 scroll was given to her by her teacher, and she only used it to scare people. She could not bear to use it.
"Of course, those who Mr. Sallin allows to stay in the temple do not need to be kept secret," the apprentice answered honestly. This was what Sallin had told them himself.
Isabella could not hold back her curiosity and asked, "Where are you from?"
"Yes, we're from Alchemy City." The two apprentices looked at each other and smiled. Although they were of low status, if they followed Sallin, he might give them a future where they did not need to bow and scrape to others. They respected Isabella because they could see that Isabella was a genius among mages. This respect was a form of acknowledgment.
"The Lord is also from Alchemy City?"
"About that, you should ask Sir. It's not a secret, but we do not know much. Sir was born in Scotia, and then met Master Jason, which was how he started on the path of a mage."
"I see … Do you need me to give you any pointers?" Isabella did not continue asking. She wanted to communicate with the two apprentices and quickly familiarize herself with the things around Sallin. So she wanted to give them some benefits first.
"If it does not affect your training, we are willing to listen." The two apprentices obviously hoped to receive pointers from a great mage, but apprentices were not allowed to harass mages, even in Alchemy City. Only when mages had time and were in a good mood would they give pointers to apprentices. Now, they were still at the reading stage. They wanted to understand the basics of magic as much as possible.
Isabella smiled. The people around Sallin were very well-behaved. But she was in a good mood, so she casually pointed out some of the most important problems in the basics to the two apprentices.
Then Isabella pointed at a smaller alchemy table and said, "You don't have to wait on me. Go practice by yourself. I plan to read for a while."
The two apprentices did not refuse this time. They needed the mage's permission to use the alchemy room. If Isabella wanted to use them for something, they would not have the chance.
Isabella was very smart. She knew what the two apprentices wanted with just a few words. Build a good relationship. There was no rush. Just do it first.
The two apprentices seized the time to get busy. Isabella took down the second notebook from the bookshelf and continued reading. Her body and mind were completely immersed in the magic notes. Before she knew it, the sky had brightened. She had no other thoughts now. To be able to follow Sallin was the dream of many mages. Even if Sallin was just an ordinary person, it was still the same!
So many magic notes, such a good training environment, such a high level of support. Every single one of these was what mages without a master would want. Although Isabella had a master, above level seven, she would have to rely on her own efforts.
