Medanzo was smart enough not to ask further. Since Amon had already said that he was a mage, then he would take him as a mage. Anyway, the identity of a sorcerer was not suitable for public discussion. He poured a few more glasses of wine for Amon in succession and waited eagerly for an answer.
The wine of the dwarves was made from wild fruits collected in the mountains. It tasted a little sour and looked very cloudy, but when tasted carefully, there was a very special sweetness to it, a taste that other wines did not have. When Amon was almost done drinking, he asked: "Medanzo, your great-grandfather was a priest of the Shrine of Marduc, but his dying will violated the oracle of the shrine. What do you think?"
Medanzo thought very carefully before replying: "He received the power bestowed by the god in the shrine and was able to practice magic and become a sixth-level mage. The oath in the shrine and the hard practice were his efforts, and he also obtained achievements and enjoyment far beyond that of ordinary people. If a god like Marduc really exists, he does not owe him anything, he has already gotten what he deserves. "
Amon's expression was very focused, and he asked thoughtfully: "Who said this?"
Medanzo: "My grandfather told me, this is what my great-grandmother said to comfort my grandfather when he was dissatisfied. She also said that if the god Marduc saved my great-grandfather, he should be particularly grateful, and if not, people should face what they have experienced, this is normal."
Amon nodded and said: "Your great-grandmother is indeed a person worthy of respect. It is indeed a bit unfair that your grandfather lost the right to inherit the position of priest, but your great-grandfather's experience has nothing to do with Marduc, if there is such a god Marduc. … Practicing magic privately is against the law, what do you think about this issue? "
Amon was himself a sorcerer, and he really wanted to know what Medanzo, who also wanted to practice magic privately, thought about this issue. Medanzo smiled and lowered his voice: "You also saw those big Ironbacks when you saved me. They are born with a kind of power similar to magic, maybe it was given by the gods, but did they get permission from the shrine?"
Amon also smiled. "Mr. Nietzsche first learned magic from your ancestor's will, so he should be grateful. His gratitude is my gratitude. It's not that I can't teach you magic, but you're already an advanced warrior, and the first thing you awaken is the power in your blood. You know very well that magic and body arts can't be practiced at the same level. "
As soon as Medanzo heard Amon's words, he immediately stood up and saluted again. "Of course I know this, but I am already an advanced warrior, and in theory I can perform another power awakening ritual. Maybe I can awaken the power given by the gods, even if it is just to learn some simple low-level magic. When I become a high-level supreme warrior in the future, I can … "
Amon interrupted him. "Let's talk about the future in the future. I want to use a special method to awaken your power, which may be more troublesome for an advanced warrior. If it really succeeds, you may have to go through all kinds of tests again, and your body arts will not be able to continue to advance for a long time."
Medanzo replied simply, "As long as you can teach me magic, everything is negotiable!"
Medanzo came to beg Amon. It could be said that he was begging the wrong person, but it was also asking the right person. In short, they were a pair of muddle-headed fools. In the shrines of the various kingdoms on the continent, only a mage of at least the fifth level or above could hold a ceremony to awaken the power of a person, and only a supreme mage could hold a second ceremony to awaken the power of an advanced or high-ranking warrior!
As for the power Gabriel awakened for Maria, that was a special case. Maria was a candidate for the Adoratrice, and she also had the Gods' Tear. Gabriel, as a supreme warrior, had mastered advanced magic. It was almost impossible for this to happen to others. There had never been a case of a second-level mage performing a second power awakening for a fourth-level warrior.
Amon didn't know this. Crazy 'Ole didn't tell him, and Medanzo, who was not qualified to learn magic, didn't know about it either. But Amon wasn't thinking about the kind of ritual in the shrines. He didn't understand it either. He was just thinking about how to awaken the power of two sides for Medanzo.
Thinking of this, he said in a low voice, "I can try my way, but I can't guarantee success. After all, there are very few people who can awaken the power of the gods. Wait for me for a few days. I'll come to you when I think about it. "
Medanzo was overjoyed. He nodded repeatedly and said, "As long as you're willing to try, I'll be grateful. If it really doesn't work, it only proves that I'm not that lucky, and I'll give up."
Crazy 'Ole had told Amon that he might as well try the method he knew or was still guessing on others. Normally, Amon wouldn't experiment on anyone. But since Medanzo came to him voluntarily, it would be a waste not to try. Amon didn't expect that after the first "test subject", there would soon be a second one.
After saying this, Medanzo didn't leave. He smiled awkwardly and said shamelessly, "Dear mage, the dwarves here worship you as the messenger of the gods. The chief, Link, told me that he is willing to help you in any way possible. Since you promised to teach me magic, Link also wants to learn. What do you want to teach him? "
Medanzo was smart. He didn't ask "can I do it", but "what do I need to do". Amon thought for a moment and answered, "I can also try, but I need to talk to him. Call him in."
Link was waiting outside the door. Medanzo called him and immediately came in happily. At this time, the jar of wine was finished, and the plate of meat was gone without anyone noticing. Amon didn't know how Schrödinger ate, but he wasn't afraid of the hot stones burning his claws. Amon let Medanzo go back to rest and left Link alone. They talked about the situation in the tribe, and vaguely found that this tribe and this chief might have some fate with him.
This was a large tribe with hundreds of people. They occupied the plateau alone, enjoying the most luxuriant forest and hunting grounds with the most game. Other tribes couldn't compete with them. One of the most important reasons was that this tribe knew how to smelt iron. There were several furnaces in the caves on the mountain wall.
The smelting skill was passed down from generation to generation. It was said that Link's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather learned it from outside the mountains. Link's grandfather's grandfather's grandfather was once captured in a tribal war, and then sold to a large town far away from the mountains as a slave. His main job was to open mines, mine, and smelt. The conditions were very difficult.
He stayed in the town for 20 years and learned a lot. He even became a small foreman in the mine and managed other slaves. Finally, he found an opportunity to escape and escaped back to the mountains with seven or eight cavemen. This tribe's smelting skill was passed down from that time. But there was only language in the tribe, no written language. Even the chief was illiterate, so there were no detailed records.
Speaking of this, Link asked worriedly, "Can the messenger of the gods learn magic even if he can't read?"
If it was outside the temple, of course, the answer was no. But Amon thought for a moment and answered, "You can learn it, but it's a lot more troublesome. You'd better learn how to read in the future."
Hearing this, Link was so happy that he almost jumped up, but he quickly prostrated on the ground and said, "So you agree? Thank you, messenger of the gods! If you have any orders, I'm willing to gather the whole tribe to serve you. If my people ask me which god gave me power, I will definitely answer that it was God Amon! "
Amon gave him a fright. Crazy 'Ole had asked him to solve the secret of the gods, but this dwarf chief gave him the hat of "Amun" as soon as he opened his mouth. Amon waved his hand and said, "You don't have to do this. I can't guarantee success. It's up to you. Since I've promised Medanzo, I might as well promise you. But I feel that you know some magic. Is that a mage's staff in your hand? "
Lynk raised the beast bone inlaid with God's Stones and said, "This is the chief's scepter. I know a little of the divine spell you mentioned. It's passed down from generation to generation. Only those who have mastered it are qualified to be the chief."
Link did know a few simple divine spells. They were earth elemental divine spells, but they were only the most basic and simple applications. He didn't even know what earth magic was, let alone learn all of it. There were no written records in the tribe, so he certainly didn't know its specific origin.
… …
In this way, Amon settled down in the tribe of the cavemen. As the emissary of the gods, he was treated like a "god" here. He also taught two students. Amon pondered for a few days before he took Medanzo and Link to a secluded place and had a private talk.
"No matter what you've learned before, I want to start from the first ceremony, especially you, Medanzo. Don't think too much about the power you're awakening. Don't think about whether it's the power given by the gods or the power sleeping in your blood. Don't think that this is the second awakening ceremony. Just start from the beginning.
When the power is awakened, the desire will also be awakened. It's not clear whether the desire comes from the body or the soul. It's two sides of the same coin. You have to learn how to face it and not be controlled by it. The first thing you have to learn is how to put your spirit in a state of concentration and introspect your body and mind. Pray to the Terroculus, I will give it to you two temporarily. Each of you can use it in turn for a day.
Link, remember, you have to exercise your body like the warriors in the tribe, or simply learn physical skills from Medanzo. And Medanzo, you have to forget what magic is and what physical skills are. You're awakening a kind of power, but you don't know which god gave it. This kind of prayer may be difficult, but you have to reach that state of concentration and introspect. "
Link was very obedient: "It's not difficult, it's Amun!"
