In ancient times, Flying belonged to the school of Astrology, but in the Congress of Magic, it belonged to both the school of Force Field and the school of Astrology, because its principle was to offset the restraint of the earth with the gravity of the stars.
"It feels so good to fly." Lucien closed his eyes and felt the cold wind blowing at his face. It was a pleasant feeling as if he had gotten rid of all the restraints. "It's just that it's a bit slow. I have to calculate the angle and direction of the gravity of the stars by myself, which is really taxing on my brain and spiritual power. I have to equip myself with a magic circle to help with calculation. Also, before I acquire the sixth-circle Flying spell, I can't fly as fast as the magic steam train, not to mention the supersonic speed of a plane. Well, I should optimize it with hydrodynamics or aerodynamics. "
Lucien, who was immersed in the pleasure of flying, suddenly heard a calm male voice, "Honorable Mr. Level Four arcanist, you've violated Article 7, Clause 18 of the Allyn Administration Ordinance: 'Flying in Allyn is prohibited without the permission of the Congress of Magic'. Are you going to pay the fine or go to the anti-magic prison for a while? "
Huh? As if waking up from a dream, Lucien opened his eyes and looked at the young man who was wearing a black battle sorcerer's robe in front of him in confusion. The young man had black hair, brown eyes, and a serious face. On his robe, there were four badges: a four-circle sorcerer, a red flame badge, a black staff badge, and a white feather badge, which allowed him to fly. However, since he was carrying out the security mission in Allyn, he did not wear any arcanist badge.
Damn it. He was too excited after learning how to fly that he forgot that flying was forbidden in Allyn … Lucien came back to himself and realized that he had made a big mistake. He rubbed his forehead and asked, "How much do I have to pay?"
Then he remembered that he only had sixty-one arcana points, so Lucien asked again like a money-grubber, "How long do I have to stay in the anti-magic prison?"
Seeing that Lucien did not resist, the young man's serious face softened a bit, "Mr. Arcanist, this is the southwest suburb of Allyn. The punishment for flying here is much lighter than in the central area of the City in the Sky. Also, this is the first time you've broken the law, so the fine is thirty arcana points. If you go to the anti-magic prison, you have to stay there for a month."
"A month? Fine, I'll pay the fine. " Lucien reluctantly made the decision to set off a huge firework display to celebrate his advancement to the Intermediate rank.
The man wrote a fine note on a piece of magic paper and stamped it with his badge. "Mr. Arcanist, you can take this to the disciplinary department to pay the fine."
Then he smiled and looked at the dreamy ring on Lucien's right hand, "Mr. Evans, congratulations on becoming a middle-rank sorcerer. You're the first sorcerer to reach the third circle before the age of twenty-two. I don't think you'll have any difficulties before reaching the Sixth Ring. " The unique design of this ring had long been known by the magicians through the tabloids that circulated among the magicians.
Actually, I'm not even twenty yet. Of course, if you count my age in my previous life, then I'm already twenty-five … Lucien thought to himself as he smiled gently. "Thank you. You're the first mage to congratulate me on my advancement. By the way, I still don't know your name. Can you tell me?"
The battle sorcerer smiled humorously, "Of course. I'm not afraid of your revenge, Mr. Evans. I'm Jurisian from the Song of Silver Moon League. Currently, I'm in the disciplinary department and the battle sorcerer department. Just now, my sorcerer saw that it was a level four arcanist who violated the flight rule through the Eye of Allyn. He didn't dare to deal with it himself, so he reported it to me. " It was because he saw the Holm Crown ring, Element, that he decided to teleport here through the magic circle of Allyn.
"Jurisian? A genius arcanist in the school of Electromagnetics? " Because of his identity as a genius, Lucien's friends told him a lot of information about the geniuses of the Congress of Magic. Jurisian, a level four arcanist, almost won the Silver Moon medal for his discovery of the photoelectric phenomenon. However, as a weirdo, he applied to join the battle sorcerer department and the disciplinary department.
Jurisian put on a self-mocking smile, "Mr. Evans, how can I call myself a genius in front of you? In most young sorcerers' minds, there are only two real geniuses in this generation. One is Mr. Felipe, who won the Immortal Throne award twice and Holm Crown award, and the other is you, Mr. Evans. I have to say that your appearance has raised the standard of geniuses, as if you can't be a real genius if you don't win the highest honor in your field at least once. Therefore, Rachel, Arthur, Samantha, Larry, and I are unfortunately reduced to ordinary sorcerers. "
Jurisian showed his respect to Lucien with his humorous words. He was a great sorcerer.
After some small talk, Jurisian activated the Allyn magic circle with the black staff badge and disappeared from where he was.
Looking at the fine in his hand, Lucien shook his head and smiled, "Now I have sixty arcana points per month, which is barely enough for my daily life, experiments, and potions. However, if I want to have enough potions and magic materials every month, I can't do anything about it."
Lucien was a bit regretful that he built the Purification magic circle. Otherwise, he would have received the first monthly payment in July. According to the current promotion and sales of Holm Mineral and Harvest Company, in the first few years, there should be at least hundreds of Quintal per month. After the promotion and sales in the few countries, there could be five or even ten thousand Quintal per month, which equaled to that of a senior-rank sorcerer. "
Putting away the fine, Lucien slowly descended and looked at the darkness in the west, "Natasha, John, Uncle Chorre, Aunt Alisa, Mr. Victor, Elena, Phyllis … I really want to find a chance to go back and visit them …"
When Lucien slowly descended to the second floor of the villa, a window squeaked open. Layria and Heidi rubbed their eyes and looked out of the window. They were too tired to fall asleep. Also, they wanted to look at the beautiful night sky and recall the stories their mother told them before.
They were far away from their hometown and their families and came to Allyn to study magic. Apart from the heavy homework and spellcasting practice, they missed their families very much. They were not like Lucien, who could still communicate with Natasha in Aalto.
"Mr. Evans?" Heidi saw Lucien floating next to her when she opened the window. He was about to return to the meditation room.
Lucien smiled, "Good evening, Heidi, Layria. Can't fall asleep? Do you want to do arcana practice? "
The two girls, who were sleepy, immediately widened their eyes and took a step back. They smiled awkwardly, "In fact, we're here to close the window. It's too cold to sleep. Mr. Evans, Happy New Year. I hope you can become a middle-rank sorcerer in the coming year! "
Heidi and Layria closed the window together. However, two seconds later, the window was opened again. Two pink, slightly freckled faces stared at Lucien's feet, which were not stepping on anything. "You're right," Lucien said to Heidi. Heidi and Layria closed the window together. However, two seconds later, the window was opened again.
"Mr. Evans, you … You've become a middle-rank sorcerer? Have we been sleeping for a year?! "
… …
After two weeks, Lucien constructed Maskelyne's Star in his soul, which was a unique third-circle spell from the Book of Astrology and Elements. After he stabilized his power, he went to the Allyn magic tower to change his sorcerer badge.
So far, Lucien had constructed twenty-seven first-circle spells, sixteen second-circle spells, and four third-circle spells in his soul, which was twenty percent more than the number of new third-circle sorcerers. The biggest difference was that except for Flight, the other three third-circle spells in Lucien's soul were all unique spells!
In the Sorcerer Administrative Department, Eric was still smiling. He reached out his hand and said, "Congratulations, Evans. You've become a third-circle sorcerer in only one year. No wonder you're called a genius. Even with the help of magic potions, you've got a solid foundation in mathematics. Generally speaking, a senior-rank sorcerer or archmage will take you in as their student. "
"Thank you for reminding me, Mr. Eric. But I'm not sure. At least, I haven't figured out anything except astrology and elements. "Lucien shook hands with Eric and handed his sorcerer badge to him.
Eric looked at Lucien's sorcerer badge and reminded him, "Evans, you've become a middle-rank sorcerer. You can set a permanent magic effect on your badge. What do you want?"
"Mr. Eric, is it possible to change the magic effect and choose another reward?" Lucien had the Element ring, so he didn't care much about the permanent magic effect on the middle-rank badge, so he asked directly.
This situation was quite common for arcanists who had good magic items, so Eric was not surprised. He asked in a businesslike manner, "Evans, what do you want? It can't be more than the value of a permanent magic effect. "
"Mr. Eric, I want to learn a Supreme Magic Skill that can increase the distance of spells." Lucien had already thought of an answer. This Supreme Magic Skill could be cast together with Lucien's Big Fireball. Although it would consume twice as much spiritual power, it could offset the instability of the spell.
The Congress of Magic had inherited and developed many Supreme Magic Skills, such as "Silent Release", which Lucien knew but was not familiar with; "Instant Release", which could offset the casting time; "Empower Spell", which could increase the power of spells; "Maximize Spell", which could maximize the effect of spells; and "Spell Distance", which could increase the distance and range of spells.
These Supreme Magic Skills could only be exchanged by arcanists or sorcerers of a certain level, and the price was quite high. Spell Distance Increase, which Lucien wanted to learn, was the cheapest one among them.
Eric calculated in his mind, "They're basically the same, but Evans, you might have to pay ten to fifty arcana points."
"No problem." Lucien felt that his heart was bleeding. He had just paid the fine, and now he only had thirty-one arcana points left, and he had already sold the coldsteel dagger a few months ago. If he still needed more points, he would have to sell the Enfeeble dagger.
The magic badge and the document written by Eric were put into the magic cage together. As the bell rang, the bright silver light flashed and then disappeared.
About ten minutes later, the bell rang, and the silver light flashed again. When everything calmed down, a badge with a silver background and a thick roll of parchment appeared in the magic cage.
Eric picked up the badge and sensed it. His expression became a bit strange, "Evans, you're deducted thirty arcana points. And you're also given a compulsory task. "
Lucien had reached the middle-rank in both arcana and magic, so he had to accept the compulsory task given by the Congress every year.
"A task?" Lucien was surprised that he had received a mission two weeks after his promotion. He took over the magic badge and the parchment with the spell "Spell Distance Increase" written on it, and at the same time, he tried to read the information in the badge.
"Exorcism Task (Easy): In the depths of Karpas Mountain in Karpas County, Kingdom of Holm, a third-circle sorcerer failed to summon a low-rank demon. The sorcerer was killed by the impact of the spell, and several low-rank demons occupied his castle. Please work with other sorcerers who have accepted the task to eliminate them. You'll be rewarded fifty arcana points if you complete the task. " If you like this work, you're welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation. "
