After an hour, Lisben finally understood all the mysteries of the Three Gods Return to Cave. He was barely able to perform it once.
Danny stood up impatiently. "Alright, go home and practice. You should be able to reach half of my power after eight to ten years."
"Sigh, the truth is simple. The easier it seems, the harder it is to actually do it." The young mage wiped the sweat off his forehead and sighed.
That's because you're too stupid. Your brain isn't developed enough, your body coordination is too bad, and your eyes aren't good.
However, Danny wasn't bragging. She was very skilled and was probably close to the Ghost Hand King.
After all, this was a Transcendent world with low martial arts and low magic. She was a knight, a grand knight who was half a step into the second realm, Lifting Heavy as Light. Her eyesight, hand speed, and mentality were all much better than ordinary people.
In fact, as long as she reached the realm of Like Arm, she would be qualified to perform the Three Gods Return to Cave on CCTV.
When the old fire mage saw the two coming back, he asked sourly, "How was it? Did you learn it? "
Lisben straightened his back and said proudly, "As expected of the Three Gods Return to Cave. It seems simple, but it involves thinking, mentality, hand speed, eyesight, language, and more than a dozen other factors. It's very difficult to master it all. Luckily, I'm very talented and have already learned all the techniques. I'm almost at the beginner level. "
"Wow, as expected of the number one person in the younger generation of the Western Continent!" Moon Singer said in shock.
"I didn't misjudge you," the shadow binder said happily.
The male wizard and the old mage also looked at him with envy, jealousy, and despair. Sigh, I didn't expect that guy to be so lucky and talented. God is so unfair!
"Alright, the deal is done. The gathering is also coming to an end. Everyone can speak freely and exchange the secrets of witchcraft," the shadow binder said as he clapped his hands.
They didn't stand on ceremony and asked the shadow binder about the troubles they encountered during their cultivation.
Well, on the surface, it was a discussion, but in fact, it was a discussion between the big shots and the little brothers.
This was the responsibility of the shadow binder, Tam, who was the guarantor of the gathering.
Danny was a novice in the cultivation world and had never encountered a bottleneck in cultivation. She didn't know how to ask questions, nor could she answer other people's doubts, so she just listened silently.
The more he listened, the more shocked he became. Although he didn't understand what they were talking about most of the time, the shadow binder answered every question. Many times, he blurted out the answer without thinking.
Herbology, poison concoction, magic reagents, curse potions, pain in certain parts of the body during meditation, how to reduce magical errors, the names and taboos of some demon gods …
There were even people asking questions like "how to swindle money from nobles".
The old fire mage asked.
"I plan to go to Slaver's Bay to burn the Mother Of Dragons' cold stove," the old man said honestly. "Almost everyone is optimistic about the alliance, and many mages are fighting to participate in the alliance's dragon hatching ceremony.
However, I know my limits. I can't compare to Great Wizard Tam at all.
On the other hand, the Mother of Dragons' future was bleak, but for the time being, she was flourishing and flourishing!
Most importantly, she did not have any mysterious people around her, and she had even seized a large amount of gold radiance coins from the slave owners. I want to try and see if I can become her guardian archmage. "
F * ck, this guy … How stupid am I to be in your heart?
Guardian archmage? Only you can think of that.
"Hehe, the Mother Of Dragons who has four dragons needs a fire mage? Great Wizard, do you think that you can breathe fire better than dragons? "Danny couldn't help but mock him.
"What do you know!" The old black man glanced at her with disdain. He raised his chin at the shadow binder and said respectfully, "Of course, I'm not qualified to become the Mother Of Dragons' guardian archmage, but I'm asking Great Wizard Tam for advice!"
What are you hinting at, you rotten old man?
Great Wizard Tam is the same as you. He gained the trust of the nobles of Volantis with his' guardian skills'. He doesn't have any real ability at all?
"I'm afraid it won't be that easy. It might even be difficult to see her in person," the shadow binder said hesitantly.
"Why? I have an advancement step. She won't refuse to see me. "
"What kind of step?" Danny asked curiously.
"Although the governor of Volantis has sealed off the news from Slave Bay, everyone in the supernatural world knows that the Dragon Queen posted a notice in Meereen, looking for fire mages who know how to create wildfires."
"Are you crazy?" The young fire mage looked at the old man in disbelief and shouted, "Everyone knows what she needs the Wildfire for. Not to mention whether the alliance will send assassins to assassinate her or not, she needs more than one or two liters of Wildfire. She can make hundreds or even thousands of liters of Wildfire. It's enough to kill anyone."
"Why?" Danny was puzzled.
Ever since she took down Astapor, her notice had been up for almost a year, but no real fire mage had come to apply.
Well, there were many charlatans.
Except for a few fire mages who could refine white phosphorus and were valued by Danny, the rest were all liars. Not only did they not get the money, but they were also whipped ten times by the Devil's Tail, Hattar.
The shadow binder said slowly, "Not many people in the south of Ursos dare to create wildfires. The temperature is too high. When the temperature is higher than the body's temperature, the wildfires will become unstable.
You may not know this, but wildfires will explode when exposed to direct sunlight and heat from friction. The process of creating wildfires is even more dangerous.
It's not a problem to focus on creating a small amount of wildfires for experiments, but if there are too many … "
At this point, she asked the young fire mage, "What's your error rate?"
"In the cold basement, two ounces each time, the success rate is 95%," Lisbon said confidently.
The shadow binder looked at Danny. "So, you understand? Even the genius mage Lisbon makes mistakes. If he created 1,000 ounces of wildfire for the Mother Of Dragons, he would make about 25 mistakes. "
"After so many times, I might be more familiar with it," the young fire mage protested.
"Or you might be more tired, more numb, and make more mistakes." The shadow binder glanced at him, then turned to Danny and continued, "25 mistakes. Lisbon can't be lucky enough to avoid it every time, but 1,000 ounces is less than one percent of what the Mother Of Dragons wants."
The old mage chuckled. "I can slack off, or I can teach the apprentices and let them do the work. If the allies attack, I can also become their spy. "
"Yes, you can try. I think that with your talent and wisdom, you'll definitely be able to shine under the Mother of Dragons." Dani encouraged him with a sincere expression.
"Thank you." The old black man was experienced and could tell that the priestess was sincerely blessing him. He couldn't help but feel warm inside.
Danny continued to give him advice. "It's best to find a few more colleagues to help you share the risk. The journey will be difficult, and it's too dangerous and eye-catching to go alone. It's best to find a few dozen fire mages to form a group. The Kingdom Protector needs subordinates too. If there's an accident, you can find someone to take the blame. "
"Thank you." The old mage's eyes were wet. He was very touched.
"Take this bottle of fire-repelling ointment." He took out the wooden box from his bag and handed it to her. "Leila, your skin is a bit tanned from traveling in the Sea of Summer. Apply this ointment and roast it. It can remove the dead skin and help you become fair and attractive again."
"Uh, thank you." Danny smiled awkwardly and took the ointment.
While the two of them were being intimate, the shadow binder said faintly, "The Mother Of Dragons is the source of miracles. How can there not be any mages paying attention to her?"
"Who?" the old man asked in surprise.
"The top group of Extraordinaries. As far as I know, the Great Wizard Haiya and Asha Kui Xi brought her out of the Red Wasteland."
"Great Wizard Haiya and Asha Kui Xi?" The old black man's face was pale. "They're both giants!"
"I heard that Haiya and the Mother Of Dragons had a falling out in Kuis, and Kui Xi never stayed by her side for long," Danny said with a frown.
"You've heard of Kui Xi too?" the shadow binder asked in surprise.
"Of course. There were a total of three people who went to the Red Wasteland to search for dragons. But I don't know about Kui Xi. Is she famous in Asha? "
"Kui Xi's status in Asha is like Lisbon's in Volantis."
The shadow binder's tone was complicated. It was a bit like the old black man's jealousy and disappointment when he talked about the young fire mage.
Lisbon raised his chin and said in a bleak tone, "I see. The shadow binder Kui Xi is in the east, and the fire mage Lisbon is in the west. It's a pity that we're thousands of miles away from each other."
In an instant, Kui Xi's status in Danny's heart plummeted. She fell into the abyss.
Tam, you must hate Kui Xi a lot. That's why you used such a metaphor to smear her reputation. You're both shadow binders. Why are you in such a hurry to ruin her reputation?
However, she could only bury these complaints in her heart. After hearing Tam's words, she couldn't help but have a few questions. "Great Wizard Tam, does Kui Xi also know shadow sorcery?"
"All qualified shadow binders know how to do it."
"Oh my god, she can't be trying to control the Dragon Queen's soul, right?" Danny purposely exclaimed.
"No. The Mother Of Dragons has a dragon, and the shadow blood sorcery is mostly used on men," the shadow binder said.
"Why?"
Tam was a good guarantor. He answered all of her questions. He didn't even hide some of the secrets of the shadow binders. "Because to cast that spell, the most important step is to have intercourse with the person involved."
"Have … intercourse?" Danny stammered, her face full of shock. "So the legends are true. Shadow binders have intercourse with men at night and then take away their souls."
The shadow binder didn't get angry. He said calmly, "Intercourse is just a process to complete a certain ritual. The blood of 'low-level' men without any power is not attractive to us. Shadow binders don't need human souls.
When we really need to sacrifice a living person, we don't need to have intercourse with them. We can just burn them and offer their souls to Lahlo.
So you understand?
The blood sorcery that requires intercourse and the sacrifice that takes away a person's soul are two different types of sorcery. The former is far more technical than the latter.
This is also the difference between the new Dragon Granny and me.
Those who rely on their own strength to master shadow magic are called shadow binders. Those who don't have enough talent and only know how to please Shadow Demon Lahlo are called witches. "
"I see."
After Tam's explanation, Danny immediately understood the difference between witches and shadow binders.
It was just like how fire mages could still control fire even if they didn't believe in the Light King.
Although Shadow Demon Lahlo was the Lord of Shadows, shadow magic wasn't unique to him. Sorcerers could also master this ability with their own strength. They were called shadow binders.
"I heard that there was a king in the Westeros, Stannis Bella Theon. He also had a shadow binder under him. At the same time, he was also a red priest. Do you know him?"
