Veronica, who was extremely tired and weak, was finally taken back to the Duke's castle by Laing to recuperate. After being imprisoned in the Void for a few months, both her soul and body had reached their limits. She only had time to say a few words to Laing before she fainted.
Laing carried Veronica back to the Duke's castle and arranged for her to stay in his room. He helped her clean her body and changed her into a clean set of clothes so that she could have a good rest.
Veronica slept for three days straight.
Three days later, in the Old World, Brittany, Jean City, Laing's Duke's castle.
In the warm fireplace and the cold wind outside the window, Veronica was lying on a big soft bed. Her face was pale and her body was weak. Her beautiful almond-shaped eyes contained the joy and fear of surviving a disaster. Half leaning on the pillow, she slowly told her experience to Laing and the others.
Veronica's experience attracted almost everyone's attention. Suria, Teresa, Olica, Morgiana, and even Aurora was there. Aurora looked at Veronica's appearance. On one hand, she was jealous, but on the other hand, she was amazed that the new generation had surpassed the old. She had mixed feelings.
Laing could feel that the Lake Fairies were hiding in Suria's body and listening.
The room was lively. Laing sat at the head of the bed, Suria on the other side, and the dark elf Olica on Laing's back. She poked her little face out from behind his shoulder and looked at Veronica's weak appearance with great interest. Her amber eyes rolled around, and no one knew what she was thinking.
"It was quite smooth at the beginning." Veronica was very weak. She leaned on the pillow and held Laing's hand. "I spent two months touching the power of the subspace. I could feel the existence of the Wind of Chaos. I tried my best to decipher it, read the knowledge contained in the subspace, and absorb the energy."
"Well, and then?" The dark elf was very interested. Morgiana and Aurora were also listening attentively.
Unlike warriors like Laing and Suria, wizards who wanted to reach the Sanctum had to accumulate enough magic power and master enough magical knowledge. At the same time, they had to have enough understanding of the subspace and the ability to quickly and completely compile and construct great spells.
In the process of reaching the Sanctum, the wizard's soul would enter the subspace and further evolution. Of course, the origin of magic was the Wind of Chaos from the subspace and the Realm of the Chaos. Only by absorbing enough energy and knowledge in the subspace to complete the transformation of the soul and body and body could the wizard break through the shackles of the legendary realm.
So, what was the difference between a Sanctum spellcaster and a legendary spellcaster?
There were three main differences.
The first was the control of the Wind of Magic. A Sanctum spellcaster was highly proficient in the use of magic. Not only could they easily control the magical elements, but they could also bind the Wind of Magic to the land they were on through their own power. This greatly reduced the probability of mistakes and the accuracy of spells.
The second was the forced casting. Even a legendary spellcaster would still be limited by the environment when casting spells. For example, a Light Magician would be no different from a normal person in a completely dark environment. A Fire Magician would be very weak in a rainy and cold environment. However, a Sanctum spellcaster would not have such a problem. They could usually store a large amount of magic power in their body. As long as it was necessary, an Ice Magician could summon an Ice Dragon even in a dry desert.
The third was the arcane conductor. It was more complicated to explain. In a nutshell, a Sanctum spellcaster could rely on his own body as an arcane conductor to cast spells when he was faced with a "null magic" and could not feel the Wind of Magic. For example, if the dwarven rune blacksmiths successfully deployed the anti-magic runestone on the battlefield, under the influence of the anti-magic runestone, ordinary wizards would not be able to feel the Wind of Magic and would naturally become useless. However, a Sanctum spellcaster was different. A Sanctum spellcaster who had a deep understanding of the subspace and the nature of the Wind of Magic could directly create the Wind of Magic and use it to cast spells. Even the anti-magic realm of the gods could not restrict them.
Morgianna, Aurora, and Olica were all Grand Sorcerers, so they had a lot of experience in such matters. Sulia, on the other hand, did not quite understand what was going on. She could only ask Veronica to continue. "And then?"
"When it was the third week, things changed. I could feel that I had been discovered. I began to hear the whispers of the evil god. It was Tzeentch's mocking laughter. He kept making sounds to disturb me, to tempt me, to make me fail or fall. His voice was always in my head. In the colorful and cold void, he was either threatening, intimidating, or tempting me. He just wanted me to succumb," Veronica said. "Of course, I would not succumb, but I could not remain indifferent for a long time. My anger and fear were reflected in the subspace, and the evil god found the place where I existed."
After hearing this, both Olica and Morgiana's faces changed slightly. These two Sanctum Grand Wizards were under the protection of the gods, but what about Veronica? She did not have the protection of the gods!
Aurora furrowed her brows.
"And then? Veronica, are you really okay? " Laing held Veronica's small hands with both of his hands. The man could feel the coldness of Veronica's hands.
"Due to the great guardian and the great whirlpool, Tzeentch could not interfere too much with the mortal world. He released a Great Demon and asked it to kill me." Veronica's face was full of relief. "I was no match for the Great Demon, but it could not hurt me!"
"Could not hurt you?" Morgiana looked carefully at Veronica's body and found that she did not have any god's blessing or protection. "Impossible. How did you do it?"
"It was Laing." Veronica's face flushed. "When the Great Demon Tzeentch tried to touch me, Laing engraved … the spiritual tattoo on my lower abdomen would emit a silver light. It was the light of the Great Demon Fear Tattoo. The light was too bright and orderly. The Great Demon Tzeentch tried to attack me, but before it could touch me, it was severely burned. It did not dare to come close again."
Laing let out a sigh of relief. Sure enough, his spiritual tattoo was useful. Veronica had a large amount of spiritual energy in her body, so she would not be so easily hurt.
"Spiritual tattoo …" Morgiana also thought of something, and the Lake Goddess Witch's face immediately turned red. She subconsciously reached out to cover her lower abdomen under her silk dress.
Almost at the same time, Suria, Olica, and Teresa also subconsciously covered their lower abdomens, blushing and lowering their heads. Only Aurora was puzzled. The Sanctum Grand Wizard asked curiously, "Spiritual tattoo? What is it … Why are you all silent? Laing? Why don't you share such a good thing with us? "
"Uh … It's a long story. Veronica, she … is a little special." Laing was a little embarrassed.
Other than Aurora, the women all blushed and did not speak until Veronica took a deep breath to calm herself down and broke the silence. "In … in short, the Great Demon Tzeentch could not hurt me, but it cast a spell to imprison my soul in a crystal maze. This maze was changing every minute and every second, and I could not find the exit."
"For the next few months, I was trapped in the void. When I could not hold on any longer, I heard Laing's voice. He was in a matrix composed of light of order. I felt his call, and relying on the resonance of the spiritual tattoo and Laing's power, I walked out of the maze. Then … I became like this."
"I see. Anyway, Veronica, it's great that you're fine." Although Suria only understood the gist of it, the female knight was still happy for Veronica's safe return from the bottom of her heart. "Have a good rest during this time. I will let Laing accompany you. Laing's palace needs you, your wizard tower needs you, and the entire kingdom needs you. Your safety is the most important. If you have any requests, just tell me or Sylvia."
"Thank you." Veronica was obviously a little weak after saying so much, but Morgiana did not intend to stop just like that. The Lake Goddess witch immediately asked her doubts. "But if that's the case, how did you succeed in breaking through to the Saint-level? You only comprehended for one or two months at the beginning, and then you were trapped in the Crystal Maze the entire time. Then, you somehow made a breakthrough? "
"No." Veronica shook her head. "I really succeeded in breaking through to the Saint-level in the Crystal Maze."
"In the Crystal Maze?" Morgiana was stunned by the answer.
"The Crystal Maze is not only a place to imprison me, but also a library where Tzeentch hides its secrets. When I was looking for the exit in the Crystal Maze, I also learned about the nature of the subspace and the origin of the Wind of Magic. Due to the protection of the spiritual runes, the Wind of Chaos could not corrupt me, and I took the opportunity to read about the infinite knowledge of magic. Tzeentch's magic books, parchments, and scrolls were organized by the Tzeentch demons with magic runes. I took a few chances to flip through a small part of them, which recorded the knowledge and mysteries that I would never have been able to learn in the Garland Council. Even though I only saw a fraction of it, it was enough for me to break through to the Saint-level." Veronica said proudly. "There's still some left. As long as I rest for a few months and stabilize my realm, I will be able to break through to the mid-level of the Saint-level."
Laing, "!!!"
Teresa, "???"
Morgiana: "…"
In other words, Tzeentch had designed a whole set of schemes to deal with Veronica from the beginning to the end. He wanted to cripple his right-hand man and one of his most important people. In the end, because of the protection of the spiritual runes he engraved on her, Veronica was given an extra large experience bag that could help her reach the mid-level of the Saint realm?!
Laing rubbed his chin, thinking that this kind of operation … was too f * cking cunning? I didn't even know where to start.
Yes, this was very strange.
"Hmph, your luck is pretty good." Aurora looked at Veronica, and her tone was full of jealousy. "With Clayon's help, and now that you're in the Sanctuary-realm, I'm afraid I won't have a place in the council in the future."
"Hey, Madam Aurora, your strength has been stagnant all these years, and you haven't contributed anything to the Parliament at all. You only know how to amass wealth and enjoy yourself all day long, and you only think about your reputation in everything. With your behavior, you deserve to be kicked out of the Parliament!" Veronica sneered. "You only know how to scheme all day long, I … Oh! Wuwuwu ~ "
"That's enough!" Laing had already covered Veronica's mouth, and the Duke looked at Garland with annoyance. "You want to quarrel when you're so weak?"
"… That's right, I'm very weak, very weak, and I need to rest." Veronica wanted to put on a brave front, but when she saw Laing's stern gaze and Laing's malicious gaze, Garland gave up. Even so, her gaze was still as sharp as ever. When she met Aurora's gaze, Laing could feel the sparks between them. "Does anyone have any questions? If there's nothing else, I'm tired. "
"Veronica, don't be like this. My mother and I are also helping Ryan. As long as he needs help, my mother and I are willing to help." Theresa quickly came out to smooth things over. She pulled Aurora, whose face was red with anger, back away.
"I'll watch your every move closely, Madam Veronica." Morgiana obviously still had doubts about Veronica's words, but she did not intend to pursue them for the time being. "I hope you're telling the truth."
"Of course it's true. Don't you feel the same?" Veronica looked at Morgiana. She was indeed tired, so she closed her eyes. "If there's nothing else, let me sleep a little longer. Leave Laing to me."
"That's all for today. Veronica is very weak." Suria also stood up. The Duchess signaled for everyone to leave. "Let her rest."
"I'm not leaving. I want to stay with my master!" Veronica obviously did not intend to leave. She leaned on Laing's back, her amber eyes filled with interest and playfulness. She also seemed to want to study more. Veronica shuddered when she saw the look in Veronica's eyes. Garland shrank back in fear and looked at Laing for help.
Unfortunately, Laing did not see it. He just nodded. "If that's the case, Veronica and I will stay."
Everyone left the room one after another.
"My dear, I'm awesome, right? Your partner has finally caught up with you! " Veronica was very tired at this time, but she still forced herself to be energetic. She said proudly, "You're improving very fast, but I won't fall behind you. I, Veronica Benadotte, am the best partner for you, Laing Macado, and the best partner!"
"Yes, yes." Leon was also sincerely happy for Veronica. He stroked Veronica's long, dark brown hair and said gently, "I've always believed that you can do it, my dear. In order to congratulate you on successfully breaking through to the Sanctuary-realm, I have a gift for you!"
"My dear, what are you going to give me?" Veronica's eyes lit up.
"Veronica, go get it!"
"Yes, master."
