Roland really didn't expect that Aldo actually knew what it was.
To be honest, he wondered at first if it was just the graffiti of some bored artist.
"Magic array?" Roland froze. He had read a lot of books in the Magic Tower recently, but he didn't see any book mentioning this at all.
Aldo smiled meaningfully and said, "Do you think the aristocracy's monopoly of knowledge refers to spell models? There are others. "
Roland sat down, looking like he was inclined to do so.
"Enchantment and scroll making, you should have seen these two in books!"
Roland nodded.
"These two skills are also one of the advanced sideline skills of Mages, and they are quite difficult to learn. But the real secret is magic array. "
Roland frowned. "Magic array … What kind of thing is it?"
"It's not a thing. It's the kind of advanced skill that can only be accessed when magic theory has been studied to the extreme. " Aldo revealed an intoxicated expression. "When you can learn magic array, it already means that you are at least close to a Legendary spellcaster. And the significance of magic array is not just in the achievement of magic theory, it has a wide range of uses. "
Roland said, "Can you give an example?"
"Under the royal palace of the capital of Fareins, there is a huge magic array that can be directly activated in wartime, forming a powerful magic barrier that envelopes the entire city. It is said that it can withstand the full-force attacks of at least two Demigods. " Aldo looked up at the ceiling with a yearning expression. "That magic array is the masterpiece of Demigod Duncan. Do you know Duncan's deeds? "
Roland shook his head.
"Duncan is a genius in the magic world. He personally invented many spells, such as magic missiles, lightning palms, giant soundwaves, acid sputtering, and so on. It can be said that at least a third of the spells we commonly use are his masterpieces. "
Roland sucked in a cold breath.
Aldo stood up and continued, "The evaluation of how respected a Mage is is not based on how powerful the magic he uses, but on whether he can master enchantment, magic scroll making, or magic array."
Roland looked at Aldo. "Then, Chairman, do you know magic arrays?"
"Not to mention magic arrays, I don't even know what enchantment is about. That's why I'm an ordinary pawn that can't be any more ordinary. That's why I'm unable to move in the hands of the headquarters. "
Roland asked curiously, "Then where can I learn these things, at the headquarters?"
"A Mage Tower!"
"Magic Towers in other cities?"
"It's not a Magic Tower in the literal sense, but a secret organization." Aldo explained, "A group of powerful Mages who are good at evoking gathered and created a secret organization called the Red Magic Tower. Later, Magicians of other elements followed suit and created white magic towers, gray magic towers, yellow magic towers, and so on. "
Roland chuckled. "Naming your organization after its color? You're quite willful. "
Aldo shrugged in agreement. "These Magic Towers are hidden in secret places. It's an invitation-only system. Only when you have enough strength and reach that level will they send an auditor out to secretly examine you. When they think you are capable enough to become their partner, they will appear in front of you."
"So mysterious?"
Aldo was quite happy to share knowledge with the younger generation. "Although our headquarters in Hollevin is very overbearing and looks very powerful, compared to the major Magic Towers, we're just children."
Roland sighed. "It seems that I have to find time to learn some enchantment."
"Before that, you have to learn how to summon a magic pet first."
"Huh? What's this now? "
"After reaching the elite level, a Mage can contract an animal to become a magic pet." Aldo turned around, pulled out a book from his bookcase, and solemnly handed it to Roland. "This is my notes on magic, which records the spell model for summoning a magic beast. Take it."
Roland held the book and looked at Aldo quietly for a moment, then suddenly said, "Chairman, are you planning to leave?"
Aldo froze for a moment, then smiled helplessly and said, "Did you see it?"
"Intuition."
Aldo sighed dejectedly. He sat back in his chair and said slowly, "You guys have done something great these days, killing John Senior. I'm really impressed."
"Did we cause you trouble?"
Aldo waved his hand. "That's not it. It's just that looking at you guys acting so wantonly, I suddenly figured something out. I'm clearly still young and have a lot of time, so why should I waste it here with the headquarters? Can't I go to another country? Mages are rare everywhere, and even if I don't do well, it's better than being pinched like a mouse by the headquarters. So I plan to leave quietly in a few days. "
Roland was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "I didn't hear anything just now."
Laughing twice, Aldo stood up and patted Roland on the shoulder. "You're impressive, kid. Not only are you talented, your EQ isn't low either. You'll definitely become a big shot in the future."
"Forget about the big shot thing, I'm only interested in magic now." Roland looked around. "Since you know how to summon a magic pet, where's your magic pet?"
"No, killed by the people from the headquarters." Aldo's eyes revealed a faint expression of hatred. "Each Mage can only contract one magic pet in their lifetime, you see what I mean."
Roland sighed. "This counts as a blood feud."
"So no matter what, the feud between me and the headquarters won't be resolved." Aldo chuckled.
Roland didn't say anything. He didn't know what to say. If he consoled, it would seem that Aldo was weak, and if he didn't, it would seem that he was a little cold.
However, Aldo's expression quickly returned to normal. He waved his hand and said, "Alright, you can go back first. I'll leave the Mage Tower to you from now on. Vivian is a good girl, so do as you see fit."
Roland still had a lot of questions to ask, but Aldo was clearly unwilling to say more.
After thanking him, Roland returned to the Magic Tower with the book on summoning a magic pet.
As soon as he sat down, Vivian came up with a glass of freshly squeezed juice. "Deputy Chairman, you've been out for a long time, thirsty."
Roland looked at Vivian and asked, "Have you heard of a magic pet?"
Vivian nodded repeatedly. "I've heard of it, but it's said that only powerful Mages are qualified to contract a magic pet."
"If you could contract a magic pet, what kind of animal would you choose?"
"A unicorn, of course." Vivian's eyes sparkled. "I heard that's the treatment of a Holy Maiden."
Roland had a helpless expression on his face.
Even a noob like him, who didn't have much common sense in the world of magic, knew that unicorns were frighteningly rare, and they would only occasionally appear in the territory of the elves.
To want to contract a unicorn, Vivian's maiden heart was really "pink."
