Seeing that Nika was lost in thought, Lucien hurriedly interrupted him and said straightforwardly, "It's the power of the earth. We call it gravity."
"The power of the earth?" In this world, the concept of earth, fire, wind, and water had not yet been introduced. So, Nika still looked confused but eager to know the answer.
Lucien smiled and said, "The power of the earth attracts us to it and makes the sun, the moon, and the stars revolve around it. Birds can only fly freely by flapping their wings …"
While talking, Lucien cast Gravity Disorder, making the small objects on the table float and fall rapidly.
Nika took out the heart of an unknown monster and threw it into the air. Then, he watched the heart fall to the ground and make a dull sound. Nika said seriously, "The power of the earth …"
The boy's eyes widened, "Sir, are … are you also a wise man?"
Nika was pulled back to reality by the boy's voice. He stared at Lucien crazily, "Can you tell me more about it? Also, about the division you mentioned just now … "
"We're in a hurry to leave. I'll give you some books for reference later." Lucien pointed at the wound on Natasha's left arm, "Mr. Nika, have you ever seen a blood-red flower from the stem to the petals? It preys on small animals. "
Since Lucien did not know how to call the Bloody Family here, he only described the flower's appearance.
Nika slightly frowned, "Are you talking about the 'Groening Flower'? Why don't you take one out and show it to this gentleman, Ashi? "
The little boy Ashi withdrew his curious gaze and quickly walked to the storage room next door.
Nika finally noticed that both of them were injured, so he calmed himself down and asked, "Sir, are you here for my treatment?"
"No, thanks. I have my own magic. I only need to make some potions." Lucien waved his hand.
"Magic?" Nika felt that everything he heard today was new. He had never heard of many words before.
Lucien raised his chin at him and smiled. "It's the extraordinary power that you've grasped so far."
Nika was silent for a short while. He felt that this guest was too mysterious. Natasha, who was next to him, seemed to be affected by the decline of her physical condition. She just listened to Lucien's "abduction" of talents with a smile.
At this time, Aki walked in with a bright red flower the size of a fist. Lucien looked at it, got up with a smile, and took the flower. "This is it, Mr. Nika. Can I borrow an empty room?"
As a qualified mage, Lucien carried his alchemy hut with him everywhere he went.
"Ah Xi, take the two guests to the empty guest room." Nika was not good at socializing. Hearing Lucien's words, he hurriedly nodded, completely forgetting that the flower belonged to him.
Lucien put his right hand on his chest and slightly bowed. "To show my gratitude, I've prepared a little gift for you, Mr. Nika. Please bring me enough parchment or papyrus."
Nika shook his head. "You're my guest. It's my responsibility to help you. You don't need a gift. We'll talk about it later …"
"The gift is a book about magic." Lucien interrupted him.
Nika's face lit up. "Aki, go and get all my parchments!" Nika yelled.
"All of them? Haha, Lucien, you sorcerers are so straightforward sometimes." Natasha commented with a smile in the telepathic bond. "For example, you're still in the lab and haven't kissed a girl yet. Haha!"
Although Aki did not know what magic was, seeing that his teacher was so serious and excited, he also became excited. He quickly ran to the study on the opposite side and rushed back with a stack of parchments that were even taller than his head.
"The Mapping of Magic Principles to Model Construction, The Symbolic Meaning of Construction Patterns, Basic Magic Geometry, The Elemental Equations Behind Magic Formulas, Elementary Elements, Classification of Low-rank Meditation, Elementary Alchemy …" Standing next to Lucien, Nika read out the names of the books that Lucien copied. His body was shaking uncontrollably, and his eyes were as bright as the stars in the night sky. Nika had completely forgotten about everything else in the world.
Lucien copied all the introductory books about magic apprentices from the Library of the Soul and converted them into Babur characters. Then he smiled at Nika. "When you finish these books, you'll be able to sort out and simplify your own knowledge, and then you'll be able to master them on a deeper level."
Of course, Lucien had to guide Nika to the Congress.
"Thank you, thank you!" Nika thanked Lucien profusely. Then he asked a bit embarrassedly, "My dear guest, do you have the knowledge about the 'power of earth' that you mentioned just now?"
Lucien thought for a while. Seeing that there were still a lot of parchments left, he pressed his hand on the parchments again and copied three thick books. "Here are three books. One of them is about gravity and related theories, and it also provides better calculation tools. One is a classic on electromagnetism, and the last one is the latest system on elements and alchemy. Although it's hard for you to understand them in a short time, reading them will help you build your own knowledge system from a higher level. "
"Mathematical Principles of Magical Philosophy, Electromagnetism, and New Alchemy." Nika's eyes were glued to the three books.
The little boy, Aki, stared at the books on the table. He was at a loss and didn't know why he was so excited. "Teacher, what are these books?"
Lucien grabbed Natasha's hand and was about to go to the guest room. Suddenly, he stopped and asked, "Mr. Nika, do you have a kind of iron that looks like ice crystal?"
It would be helpful if Lucien could seize the opportunity to repair his Holm Crown ring.
"Yes, I do! Take as many as you want! "Nika answered without hesitation, and he had already started to read the books in his hand.
…
The sun was setting in the west, and it was getting darker and darker in Nika's castle.
The door of a guest room creaked open, and Lucien and Natasha walked out in high spirits.
"I'm surprised that your left hand didn't go out of control for the whole afternoon." Natasha joked with Lucien.
After several hours of intense work, Lucien had successfully used Heart of the Sun to remove the toxins from Natasha and Natasha's Violet Guardian. He had also refined the alloy of seven elements, repaired Natasha's Holm Crown ring, and slightly repaired Natasha's Violet Guardian.
Lucien deliberately jinxed it, "It's always quiet before the storm."
"Don't worry. I won't be careless." Natasha waved Pale Justice to show that she was in good condition.
At this time, the door of the organ room was suddenly opened, and Nika rushed out, exhausted and excited. Waving the books in his hand, he said to Lucien, "Although I only understand a little bit, I can feel the profound mystery and incomparable value contained in the books. Dear guest, please tell me the whereabouts of the three great sages, Derek Douglas, Edwin Brook, and Lucien Evans. I'm going to follow them!"
Natasha could not help but burst out laughing, which made Lucien cough a few times in dissatisfaction.
"You can understand a little bit?" Lucien was very surprised. Although Nika's high spiritual power meant that his soul was strong, and his memory and thinking ability were excellent, it was still unimaginable that Nika could understand part of the three books in just one afternoon.
Nika's face was a bit red. He rubbed his fingers, "A little bit. I read other introductory books first, and then I had a general impression of them and understood the relevant vocabulary. Then I turned to these three books. Some of the questions were exactly what I've been thinking about and studying, so I could understand a little bit. Finally, I know what elements are, what atoms are, what gravity is, and what lightning is! "
"I see. Nika has a solid foundation, but he's still at the level of superficial application." Lucien slightly nodded and changed the topic, "Mr. Nika, do you know any special places around here?"
The more Lucien knew about the mountains in the north, the easier it would be to avoid Demigod-lich.
Nika rarely talked with other people, so he was led by Lucien and began to think carefully, "There's a valley under the cliff nearby, where many dangerous monsters live. The animal skin on the door was picked up from there …"
"… Over this mountain, there's a very gloomy forest, where my spiritual power can't be spread out. Next to the forest, there's a very big lake, and the water is very deep. At the place where the lake meets the cliff, there's a secret cave that goes up diagonally, leading to the other side of the mountain. I found it by accident when I was diving and hunting monsters. "
"Behind the gloomy forest, there's a valley surrounded by gray fog all year round. There's always the crying of ghosts in there, so I don't dare to go in there for the time being."
Nika introduced the places he had been to one by one.
Lucien and Natasha listened carefully, but did not interrupt. When Nika finished, Lucien smiled, "Thank you for telling us these things. You can take these books to Metanin Oasis in the east desert and find a man named Leo. He'll take you to an organization that studies magic. It's an organization established by all the sorcerers in the world. You'll have a better learning environment there. "
Nika had read some introductory books, so he knew what a sorcerer was. He nodded heavily, "I can't wait. By the way, are the sages still alive?"
Lucien nodded slightly and was about to fly away with Natasha. At this time, Nika seemed to remember something. He hurriedly asked, "Dear guest, how should I call you? When we arrive at Metanin Oasis, who introduced me to this place?"
He vaguely remembered that some organizations that shared common books around here also required introducers.
Before Lucien answered, Natasha grinned and said, "Him? His name is Lucien Evans."
What? Nika froze like a stone statue, watching Lucien and Natasha fly away.
… …
There was only a dark red color in the sky, and the Evening Star was hanging in it.
"I suspect that the place Nika mentioned is the Death Valley, the former divine realm of the Lord of Underworld, the source of the Solna River, and the place where Alterna and the mysterious existence of the World of Souls fell." Lucien briefly mentioned the place.
Natasha said seriously, "Then we can go there and take a look. We'll definitely find a way to deal with Demigod-lich, or we can't just rely on luck."
"It's a pity that you can't carry the Shield of Truth yet, or we can rely on it until seven days later." Lucien joked.
Natasha stared at Lucien, "I can't carry it until I'm close to the level of a gold Knight. Besides, legendary items are as rare as legendary figures. We can't find any other legendary items now."
Basically, except for a few powerful figures, most of the legendary figures only had one or two legendary items.
The wind from the mountain forest blew, making people feel refreshed. However, the surroundings seemed to be cold and cheerless because it wasn't night yet. It was abnormally quiet.
Lucien suddenly thought of something. He looked at Natasha and asked, "How long has it been since we last met Demigod-lich's servants?"
Natasha's face turned serious, "Since this morning."
"Let's go!" Lucien was very nervous.
