Chapter 343: Ocean Arcane Mage
"The person I want to thank the most is Chairman Duke."
The day after seven bells rang in Magic Spirit Towers across the country, the newly promoted 7-ring Morning Star Arcane Mage is now the chief of the Erudite Tower in Gaohe City. The director, the erudite sage Elaven, was a guest at the Seven Towers Optical Observation Station and told the story of his promotion to the stars.
As soon as he came up, Elivin began to thank Duke: "I have accumulated enough over the years, but listening to the whispers of the stars is always not smooth because I lack some knowledge of new things." The host did not interrupt Elivin
. He was talking freely and just nodded in agreement.
While remembering the past, Eleven sighed: "Until Chairman Duke turned out, the Ring of Brand shocked the world, and I finally found a sense of freshness... I thought the Ring of Brand would reach its limit, but who could have expected it? Come, Chairman Duke has released the Ring of Consonance."
The ring of branding and the ring of consonance bring about the knowledge of spiritual arcana, which really benefits the world, and all arcane mages have benefited from it.
Elaven has benefited the most from these new technologies, which are another layer of interpretation of spiritual arcana.
"With the help of two rings, I have been able to listen to the whispers in the starry sky and hear some specious contents." Elaine said with a smile, "At that time, you can imagine how grateful I was to Chairman Duke, but this It's still not the limit."
Then, Duke released the Ring of Light, which connected the whole world like an explosion, turning the wilderness into a village.
"The revelation that the Ring of Light has brought to me is immeasurable. As my research on the Ring of Light deepens, the whispers in the starry sky become clearer and clearer. It can be said that I am only one step away from the stars. Time has passed. Once it's boiled, you can take off!"
At this point, the female host beside her couldn't help but wow, looking at the white-haired old man with admiration.
His hair and beard are all white, which is already the standard for high-level arcane mages.
However, the skin, muscles and other physiological functions are still maintained at their peak state by spiritual energy and remain youthful forever.
How could the female host not admire such a "young" old man with supreme power? She wished she could pack herself up and give it to the old man as a snack.
"But what?" Elaine didn't look at the female host. At his age, he had experienced so many embraces that he had already taken it lightly. "Just when I was about to fight against time, Chairman Duke came again. The Ring of Fantasy Beasts and the Ring of Qi Refining were released one after another."
He praised deeply: "Although I have not opened the Sea of Blood and the Sea of Qi, by analogy, these two rings still brought me the things I have been dreaming about. Fresh understanding, so time can no longer stop me. I heard all the whispers in the starry sky clearly, and finally walked out of my own chapter of stars!" Bang bang bang
.
The female host clapped softly, her eyes dazzled. If she hadn't been a level 1 arcane mage and could control her emotions, she would have sacrificed herself in the live broadcast of Light Vision.
The starry aura emanating from the stars itself is as oppressive as the abyss, making people have the urge to kneel down and worship. If it were an ordinary host, a disharmonious scene would inevitably appear.
Glancing at the coquettish female host, Elaine said calmly: "I am just one step ahead of others and advance to the stars. I believe that in the Seven Towers Federation and even the whole world, there are sky arcane mages like me who are trapped in the Whispering Circle of the Starry Sky. , not a few."
He faced the camera and said in a solemn tone: "Next, you will see more sky arcane mages who will be promoted to the stars!"
He stretched out a hand and shook it in front of the camera.
Elaine's tone gradually revealed a hint of fanaticism: "Chairman Duke's five rings will forge a prosperous age of stars!"
In front of the optical machines, thousands of households were watching, and the new stars were watching for the first time. Appearance.
Seeing that the new stars praised Duke so highly, the people who already admired Duke puffed up their chests as if they were honored. Those people who had reservations about Duke kept muttering in their hearts and silently adjusted their views on Duke. Cognition.
The seven sages of the Five Rings Prophet really do not fall into the category of the first sages in the world.
"Sir, even the stars are your believers." Ibuprofen, who has been promoted to the director of the office of Duke's Sage Mage Tower, looked at the photoscope and thanked Duke endlessly for the newly promoted stars Elaven , letting out a sigh of relief.
"It's okay. Elaine is not an ungrateful person and knows how to accept my kindness." Duke's tone was calm, but his reserved and complacent expression could not be concealed.
Even the stars have become his believers, which is really a proud thing worth showing off.
"Arcane mages around the world must be the first to fall in love with you." Ibuprofen said matter-of-factly, "The great achievements you announced have helped countless arcan mages expand their knowledge. This is a fact that cannot be erased no matter what. ."
Duke waved his hand calmly: "There is no need to repay a favor. I invented these technologies and no one will come to thank me. It is just to change the world."
Such a calm attitude and such domineering words .
If it were a strange female arcane mage, she would probably have thrown herself into her arms long ago, but ibuprofen is already immune to this.
Once I'm used to Duke's attitude, my threshold will naturally be high.
Besides, she is also very aware of Duke's appearance-controlling attributes, and she is an ordinary person, so she just acts as a subordinate. Don't expect to be like Winona Yingzhu and Agnes Ice Crown, who can climb from assistant to madam.
"Sir, Lord Eleven said that there will be more sky arcane mages who will be promoted to the stars in the future, is that correct?" "There should
be several sky arcane mages who will get the help of the five rings and ascend to the stars. But There won’t be too many. Whether it can lift into the air ultimately depends on the Sky Arcane Master’s own understanding, and the help of the five rings is by no means a key factor.”
Duke replied matter-of-factly.
Ilavin was able to advance to the stars, perhaps with the help of Duke's five rings, which provided him with the slightest opportunity for a breakthrough.
But in the final analysis, it was Eleven who had accumulated enough to make all this happen.
so.
At the Supreme Committee meeting the next day, after Eleven's clone arrived, he expressed his gratitude to Duke in person, but Duke did not accept it.
"Elaven, this is your own accumulation, I just provide a little opportunity." Duke smiled.
Eleven said sternly: "Mr. Chairman, you may not value these, but even this opportunity is of infinite importance to me. Please allow me to express my gratitude to you, otherwise I will be punished." Well deserved."
"Okay, it's up to you." Duke was helpless.
"This is a good story, and I am very happy to congratulate you." Linton Treecicada smiled, "Mr. Chairman, our Supreme Committee has another star, which shows that the age of erudition is coming!" "Yes, Sage
Linton is right. Yes, Lord Eleven is the first, and more people will join this prosperous era later." "
Yes, yes, even among my highest committee, there are several sages who are qualified to impact the stars."
"That's Sage Herington."
"Oh, I haven't heard the whispers from the stars yet. It's too early to talk about attacking the stars. It's too early!"
The atmosphere of the Supreme Committee was harmonious.
Duke allowed everyone to be noisy for a while before presiding over today's meeting, reviewing a new technology and assigning promotion tasks.
Although he has not invented any new technologies in the past few years, he has really promoted the development of natural history in the Seven Towers Federation with the help of the platform of the Supreme Committee. Especially around the ring of light and information, communication policies are promoted layer by layer to integrate the entire federation into one.
Now, even small and remote counties have been connected with optical cables.
Not only that, but under his promotion, rail trains also began to be built crazily. The rail lines extending in all directions greatly accelerated the flow of population.
At the same time, the speed of the rail lines has been increased again and again. Now the speed of some high-speed rails has been increased to 600 kilometers per hour.
It takes two or three days to drive from the central city of one domain to the central city of another domain.
This speed has far surpassed that of airships and has gradually caught up with battleships. Moreover, Duke is still presiding over the research and development of higher-speed rail trains. By then, battleships will most likely be eliminated by high-speed rail trains.
certainly.
Duke still likes battleships. Mobile fortresses are more comfortable than rail trains, so he is also presiding over the research and development of high-speed battleships.
In the age of Dongwei spirituality, speed is equally important.
It can be said that Duke is combining the respective advantages of the earth and the wilderness continent to create an unprecedented great era.
“The next step is to push optical cables from the county to each newly established market town,” Duke emphasized at the meeting.
The former market towns, such as Sheshou Town, have been transformed and upgraded into today's county towns.
As the knight class became stronger and stronger, and Qi Refiners continued to emerge, more and more people went out of the city and opened up into the surrounding forests. Countless market towns developed by low-level arcane mages, knights, and Qi refiners have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
Duke now wants to include these newly emerging market towns into communications integration.
after an hour.
End of the meeting.
The Supreme Committee meetings at this stage are always held within one hour, everything is explained clearly, and then the meeting adjourns.
There is no other reason. Duke's earth clone can only last for an hour and a quarter.
A quarter of an hour was set aside for reviewing the documents, signing and sealing them, so the meeting only lasted an hour. Fortunately, most of the erudite sages were in separate meetings, and their time was limited, so they acted quickly and reduced all kinds of nonsense.
The next day.
Duke's earth clone participated in the meeting of stars again. The theme of the meeting was to welcome Elaven to the meeting of stars.
Elaven's new role will also be discussed.
There are usually five places to go in Qunxing's job arrangement, and the first one is naturally the head of the five towers.
As we all know, the Seven Towers Federation has seven towers representing power. Among them, the heads of the Union Tower and the Observation Tower are Hui Yue, and they are called the two tower heads. Therefore, the remaining five high towers, the Star Tower Heads, are also called the Five Great Tower Heads.
At present, the capital of the five major towers is occupied by the veteran stars, who are obviously unable to move.
The second destination of the stars is the Guardian Envoy of the Twelve Domains.
Elavan was born in the gravel realm, and Michael, the original guardian of the gravel realm, degenerated into a fallen demon. If Elavan had been promoted to the stars a few years earlier, he could have successfully taken over as the guardian. But now, there are already stars serving as guardians of the gravel field.
The current guardian of the gravel realm, Melis, was also born in the gravel realm and was transferred here after Michael's fall.
The third place for the stars is the Arcane Assistance Corps. There are currently eight legions, and the eight stars are all running around.
The fourth destination for Qunxing is the Eight Outer Courts, which are the institutions affiliated with the Seven Towers such as the Knight Monastery and the Spiritual Plant Research Institute. Nominally under the jurisdiction of the Seven Towers, they are actually independent management and research institutions, but the current president is also satisfied.
The fifth place for the stars is the general affairs management position of the Seven Towers.
Such as the executive directors and executive directors of each tower, as well as the secretary-general of the Stars Conference, the chief director of the Welcome Tower of Good Hope City, etc.
"What other positions are vacant in the Seven Towers General Affairs Bureau?" Speaker Selsus asked directly.
Secretary-General Tyral responded: "Currently, there are three standing director positions in the Tower of Offa, the Tower of Knowledge, and the Tower of Stars, held by Sky Arcane Masters. He can integrate his committees and provide positions of stars. There are also chief directors of the special towers in the four cities. We can also provide star positions."
"How about integrating the executive director of the Erudite Tower and the standard setting committee under his command, and letting Elaine serve?" Speaker Gianluca Zambrotta suggested.
Madrone Rhodiola nodded: "I have no objection."
Duke said nothing.
But Elaine hesitated for a moment: "Well, I'm actually not interested in the general affairs of the Learned Tower."
He had concerns because the current executive director of the Learned Tower and the current director of the Standards Development Committee are his friends. If he integrated these two positions, the two friends would have to change positions, and it would be awkward to meet each other.
As for the other positions, Elaine didn't like them either, because he had a special liking for natural history and wanted to work in the Erudite Tower. "What are you doing? You want to stay and work in the Erudite Tower, but you don't want to offend a few of your colleagues. How can you still have the grace of the stars!" Sarilang snorted.
Elaine smiled sarcastically. He had just joined the Stars Meeting and was not used to the noisy style of the Stars.
After several discussions, Duke simply suggested: "I recently have a plan to reorganize the Erudite Tower, transfer a group of backbones, and prepare the ninth outer courtyard, the Museum Research Institute, which is specifically used to improve and integrate the existing Erudite technology. How about Leave it to Elivin to lead it."
"Natural Research Institute?" Madron Rhodiola frowned, "How come I haven't heard of it." "I haven't
said it yet, of course you haven't heard of it."
"This matter needs long-term consideration. ."
"It's okay, let's discuss it. Elaine, can you wait?" Duke asked.
Elaine nodded hurriedly: "I can wait, I can wait. If we can really prepare a museum institute, I am willing to serve as the dean!"
This position is very suitable to his taste.
Hearing this, Selsus chuckled: "Let's discuss it now. I think a Museum Research Institute should be built. The seven towers all have outer courtyards, whether it is to improve technology or balance the structure. It’s time to build an outer courtyard.”
After some discussion, the establishment of the Museum Institute was confirmed, and Elaine would also serve as the first president of the Museum Institute.
For a while, Duke's main energy was used to help Elaine prepare for the museum institute.
This museum research institute is somewhat similar to the Chinese Academy of Sciences on Earth. Under Duke's conception and establishment, a number of subordinate museum research societies have been set up in various cities.
"When you set up a natural history research society, be careful to formulate the research scope of the natural history research society based on the comprehensive strength of each city. For example, coastal cities will mainly study natural history technology related to navigation." "I understand
. "Eleven responded.
"Okay, I won't say much else. If you need help, just tell me." Duke said.
This busyness lasted until the spring of the next year.
Duke suddenly didn't activate several of his clones for a week in a row. Instead, he stayed in Duke's Sage Mage Tower and concentrated on training.
Looking inside the spiritual sea.
The fourth ring on the surface of the spiritual core and the dense lines outlined will soon form a perfectly closed circuit.
"Process One: Exclusive Meditation Method, Vision Resonance, Spiritual Boiling, and Projection Fountain. Suspend idle mode and practice by the owner himself. Currently, he is a Level 4 Earth Arcane Scholar in the Spiritual Sea. The cultivation progress is estimated to be 99.99%, and it is about to be completed!
" Duke's training progress at this time is clearly listed on the art progress chart.
From July 17, 4422, when he was promoted to Arcane Earth Mage, to today, April 27, 4430, which lasted for seven years, nine months, and more than ten days, Duke finally reached the point where the fourth ring was complete.
Meditate, breathe.
The spiritual energy poured into the body, as active as boiling water, and poured crazily into the fourth ring structure of Duke's spiritual core.
"It's time."
A thought flashed through Duke's mind.
The last batch of boiling spiritual particles poured into the fourth-layer ring structure, filling in the last gap in the connecting part of the ring structure.
next moment.
The entire ring structure burst out with bright light, and the spiritual core expanded to the entire spiritual sea in an instant. The zigzag energy lines passed through all the phenomena in the spiritual sea, outlining a mysterious but regular structure, even between the spiritual particles. The combination is also mysterious.
Then, quietly, a new loop stretched out from the fourth ring structure of the spiritual core, surrounding the spiritual core.
Like a planetary ring on a planet.
"The fifth ring!" Duke laughed. Breakthroughs were like drinking water. For him, every promotion came naturally.
His knowledge of spiritual arcana far exceeded the speed of his cultivation.
boom!
The spiritual core shrinks and returns to the origin in the center of the spiritual sea. On several surrounding orbits, arcane wonders and arcane weapons complement each other.
The fifth ring track, which originally had only six additional slots, suddenly expanded into a large amount of space, which can be divided into approximately eight new slots.
"I can construct new ideas again." Duke's mind watched the changes in the spiritual sea indifferently. He did not exit the spiritual sea until these changes stabilized.
Open your eyes.
Everything around him became brighter. This was not an optical illusion, but a change in psychic perception.
His spiritual sense is sharper and his perception is greatly improved.
The most important thing is that the unique ability of the Great Ao Mage, the Fountain of Projection, has also been greatly strengthened. Originally, the projection spring was like a super weak spiritual spring, but now the projection spring is barely worth one-tenth of the small spiritual spring.
This is already a huge improvement.
You must know that at the foot of Oak Tooth Mountain, there are only two small spiritual springs. Usually, one small spiritual spring can support the use of a mage tower.
In the future, even if Duke reaches the Jedi point where his spirituality has dried up, he can still rely on the fountain of projection to maintain a certain level of combat effectiveness.
"Eight years is four years shorter than the twelve years I originally expected." Duke calculated the time. This was the longest part of his training, but it was only eight years. Some arcane mages can practice the first level even faster.
This year, Duke turns thirty-four.
"It's a sure shot to hit the stars before he's a hundred years old!" He still has sixty-six years left to hit the stars before he's a hundred years old.
For other arcane mages, sixty-six years may not be enough to complete the fifth ring, but for Duke, this is not a problem at all.
"It takes three years to be promoted from one ring to two rings; it is also three years to be promoted from two rings to three rings; it is four years to be promoted from three rings to four rings; it is eight years to be promoted from four rings to five rings, which doubles; well, suppose five rings It will take sixteen years to advance to the sixth level, and it will take thirty-two years to complete the sixth level. I will only be eighty-two years old by then." He has already
activated the will of the stars, and listening to the whispers in the starry sky will probably be just a formality. Like clearing away the fog of spiritual arcana.
so.
Duke estimates that when he is about eighty-two years old, he will be able to ascend to the stars: "But in fact, I may be much younger than this age. I don't believe that it will take sixteen years to complete the fifth ring, and three years to complete the sixth ring." Twelve years! Maybe ten or eight years will be enough!"
If so, he felt that he could even hit Huiyue before he was a hundred years old.
If there is another big opportunity, it is not impossible to hit the 9th ring of the sun before the age of 100, and get out of the first crown of the sun in the wilderness continent.
"Of course, it's too early to say anything."
Duke stood up from the tree house and was about to ask his assistant to report to the Magic Spirit Tower and update his Magic Spirit Card information.
"Sir." Ibuprofen came quickly.
"Take my magic spirit card and go to the magic spirit tower to update my cultivation level to become a marine arcane mage." "
Ah!" Ibuprofen exclaimed as Duke expected.
Duke waved his hand calmly: "Go ahead, there's nothing surprising. Also, tell Chief Director Edwin Moon Falcon not to ring the bell and keep a low profile."
Ibuprofen had recovered from the surprise and smiled after hearing this. : "Sir, you'd better let the Faling Tower ring the bell. The bell-ringing ceremony is for the staff of the Faling Tower, but every time they hear the sound, they will be rewarded with one month's salary." "No."
Duke refused, " At the end of last year, Elaine was promoted to the Stars, but after seven knocks, the salary and reward were enough."
Employees who can work in the Five Towers are basically not from low-income families.
Duke put his hands behind his back and walked to the path outside the tree house. He shook his head and said: "The rewards they have earned from me over the years are not small. Let's forget it this time. It's just a marine arcane mage. There is no publicity. Necessary.”
That moment, and this moment.
Duke's mentality is completely different. Now he is an official member of the Council of Stars, the chief sage of Offata, and one of the six speakers.
Unless you are promoted to Level 7 Morning Star Arcane Tutor, there is no need to celebrate.
Even if the age of the 7-ring Morning Star is too old, there is no need to celebrate, because everyone knows and believes that sooner or later he will be able to ascend to the stars. It's a matter of course, so what's the need to celebrate?
Ibuprofen followed behind and smiled: "Sir, I will convey your intention to Chief Director Edwin, but I'm afraid Chief Director Edwin has his own ideas about whether to ring the bell." "Go ahead, go ahead.
" Duke waved.
He really didn't want to ring the bell, but if Edwin Moon Falcon insisted, he wouldn't be able to say anything. After all, Edwin Moon Falcon's daughter Alyssa Moon Falcon is also considered one of Duke's lovers, so she has to give him some respect.
as expected.
A moment later, the buzzing bell rang five times, meaning the birth of the youngest Ocean Arcana Mage in the Seven Towers Federation and even the world, and also the record for the fastest promotion to Ocean Arcana Mage.
The bells of the two magic spirit towers were floating over the entire Black Dragon River.
One is the bell of the Faling Pagoda in Cuihai City, and the other is the bell of the Faling Pagoda in Shenjiao City. They are intertwined with each other and spread to every corner.
"Another star is born?" The people's eyes widened when they heard the bell.
"It's different. The stars sounded seven times. This time they only struck five times." Some people quickly discovered the difference.
But after a while, the common people knew the reason.
The latest news was posted on the big screens in some squares in Shenjiao City, Cuihai City, and surrounding counties: "Congratulations to Mr. Duke on your successful promotion to Ocean Arcana Mage!" Although the congratulations were short, the content was shocking
.
"Master Duke has been promoted to Ocean Arcana Mage?"
"Wow, Lord Duke is only thirty-four years old!"
"Have you seen the thirty-four-year-old Ocean Arcana Mage?" "
No, the forty-four-year-old 2 I have met the Huan Ao Mage. Dean Shanfeisi of Cuihai City Hospital was promoted to the 2nd Huan Ao Mage at the age of forty-four!" A middle-aged man said with great certainty, "Dean Shan Feisi Performed surgery on me!"
Just at the beginning of this year, Shanfeisi finally relied on his research in medicine to successfully expand his knowledge of spiritual arcane magic and was promoted to a second-level arcane mage.
However, after hearing this, the people around him said very coldly: "A forty-four-year-old second-level arcane mage, you are talking nonsense!" "When
Duke is forty-four years old, not all of them will become sky arcane mages. "It
's possible for all the stars!"
"Yes, yes, Lord Duke is the embodiment of spirituality. My son can be admitted to Sanhai University in Oak Tooth Mountain because I worship Lord Duke every day, and Lord Duke protects me." It’s there!”
