Chapter 254: Moonlight Cage
The collection of books in the Star Tower library contains many information notes recorded by the arcane mage ancestors who have opened the will of the stars.
Especially during the more than twenty openings in the past two thousand years, every arcane mage has basically left information notes.
Duke started reading in chronological order, from far to near, but as he read, he discovered that the reference value of these information notes was not as great as he had imagined.
"The will of the stars is the spiritual throbbing under the starry sky. If human wisdom occurs in an instant, then the will of the stars operates in units of hundreds of years. It arises in one year and extinguishes in one year. With the flick of a finger, hundreds of years pass."
In the earliest data notes, an arcane mage described the will of the stars in this way.
However, more information notes cannot record what kind of interaction took place between the will of the stars and the initiate: "I cannot capture everything that happened in the mind of the will of the stars. Only a few traces of the inscriptions have been retained. Come down."
"I forgot what I said and heard about the will of the stars. I only remember that I and Him merged into one, crossing time, traveling through the past and the future... In the end, I only brought 3 rings to 4 rings. When advancing, you need to clear away the fog of spiritual arcana."
"It's like having a dream. I have clear feelings, but I can't remember the distant memory. Only two or three vague fragments are left." "I'm afraid I have
to I disappoint everyone. My mind is buzzing, as if a lot of things have been crammed into it, but I can’t name any of them." "
The will of the stars is daunting, really..."
"The path we are taking now is wrong. The taboos of the soul must be observed, stop the experiment, stop the experiment. Once this taboo is broken, I am afraid that the way forward for spiritual arcana will be cut off!" "
I seem to be trapped in a wall, unable to find any way out, like a headless fly. Wandering around. Sorry everyone, I disappoint you this time. I don’t know what kind of revelation I got. The will of the stars is not as loved as spirituality.” “During the conversation between the will of the stars, my memory was blurry, but
then In the past few decades, as if with divine help, I have been promoted from a fourth-level earth arcane mage to the first seventh-level morning star arcane mage in the Seven Towers Federation. I will now record my training experience." "It is a rainbow channel,
I I remember very clearly that I saw the birth and death of the entire world in the rainbow passage... Don't ask me for details, I can't recall it, but I just know that spiritual arcana has a long road ahead, and there is a disaster waiting at the end."
" ..."
Soon, Duke read all the information notes and recorded them in Xiaoyi's database.
Looking at the sky outside, the sun was setting in the west. He sat at the table, frowning and thinking: "Xiao Yi, can you analyze the specific situation of the will of the stars?" "I'm sorry,
master, every person who has opened the will of the stars, stay here The memories are all different, and it is impossible to summarize the rules. It is more like the arcane mage who unlocked the will of the stars, experienced a dream from the future prophecy, and extracted some kind of revelation." There are many types of revelations
.
There are tips for a 3rd level arcane mage to be promoted to a 4th level arcane mage, there are mottos that soul experiments must stop, there are warnings about the crisis in the scar on the earth, there are prophecies about the next stage of the development of spiritual arcane magic, and even the recipe for making a certain potion. It's possible to be part of the revelation.
certainly.
The most important thing is the revelation of the future development of spiritual arcana, including the training of each arcanist and the development direction of various major fields.
"In short, it gives me the feeling that the Will of the Stars is like an ancestor who has climbed to the peak of spiritual arcana and passed on his knowledge to this group of immature spiritual arcana explorers in the wild world through this time-spanning method. Or."
Duke shook his head.
Through these information notes, he at least understood a little bit. Turning on the will of the stars is like a dream, and there is not much danger.
At least according to the existing records, no arcane mage has perished due to the will of the stars, but they have all made a lot of profits. Some arcane mages have broken the shackles of practice, some arcane mages have gained valuable inheritance, and some arcane mages have improved their talents.
all in all.
There are many benefits to activating the will of the stars, just like being initiated by a master in martial arts novels, and gaining decades of skill or martial arts achievements.
"It's just."
Duke was also confused: "According to the records of the arcane mages, the will of the stars is also a part of spirituality. It was the ancient astrologers who relied on capturing the laws of the stars to accidentally open it. The current Star Tower can even directly control Find out how to open it."
Then.
He looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window and expressed his incomprehension: "The knowledge of physics and astronomy on earth tells me that every star, except for a few planets in the solar system, is almost all a star... Some stars are located countless light years away. Outside."
He lowered his head and looked at the information notes in his hand: "Then how do these stars have a spiritual intersection with the wild world, or this wild planet? Even these stars contain such rich and colorful knowledge. Inheritance?"
Duke always felt that the planet Manghuang could not be compared with the stars in the sky.
Not to mention the will of the stars.
"The stars have a will of wool. If it really does, doesn't it mean that the sun also has a will?" Duke glanced at the sun above the blue sky and white clouds again. "If the sun really has a will, doesn't this will mean that it is farther away than the stars? Closer and clearer?"
But I have never heard of any arcane mage observing the will of the sun or the will of the moon.
"I can't figure it out, Xiao Yi."
"Master, Xiao Yi can't figure it out either."
"Forget it." Duke stood up and left the data room. "If you can't figure it out, put it aside for now. Wait for ten days and a half before I open it." The Will of the Stars... When the time comes, Xiao Yi, you must record all the communication information between me and the Will of the Stars. Make sure there are no omissions." "Good
master, Xiao Yi will do his best to record the information."
Ao before The ancestors of mages, without golden fingers, could only rely on dreams to communicate with the will of the stars in an inexplicable way.
But Duke has Xiaoyi as a helper.
Even if he forgets the process during the communication, as long as this communication can be perceived through the five senses and the spiritual sea, Xiaoyi can record all the information.
When the time comes to play it back slowly, you will be able to know what kind of existence the will of the stars is.
"So, the meeting of stars chose me to activate the will of the stars. This decision was quite correct." Duke silently gave a thumbs up to the arcane instructors.
Saying hello to the Chief Director of Muse, Duke left the Tower of Stars.
The proportion of Arcane mages in the Holy City of Arcana is almost one-tenth, and the remaining nine-tenths are vassals and servants of Arcane mages, and everything revolves around Arcane mages.
He took his big knight and little assistant to a famous snack street.
It is said to be a snack street, but there is no fireworks atmosphere. The store decoration is more gorgeous than the shopping malls in Shenjiao City, and the boss and waiters are polite.
The hygiene on the street is spotless. The cleaners who clean the street are all spiritual apprentices. They use special spiritual cards as cleaning tools to collect all the dust and debris and then send them to a cleaning vehicle. They come and go quickly. Also fast.
I'm afraid that a little bit of mess will affect the mood of the Arcane Masters.
Duke didn't like this scene, but there was no need to be out of place. After all... he was also one of the Arcane Masters.
"Sir, how about this shop?" Mulali pointed to a shop with the sign "Whale Grill".
"Then go and have a try."
When he walked to the door, the service staff opened the door respectfully and bowed to say hello: "Sir Duke, welcome."
"Do you know me?" Duke asked as he entered.
"Your photos are often shown on the big screen of Offa Tower. I think there is no one in the entire Holy City of Offa who doesn't know you." The waiter showed the right smile, neither flattering nor perfunctory, "My personal favorite Your filming of "Romeo and Juliet" was so touching!"
"Okay." Duke smiled slightly, feeling that he had become a top arcane mage.
At least in recent years, in terms of traffic, there is probably no arcane mage who can match him.
He found a seat and sat down, and then said to the waiter: "Correction, I am only the screenwriter of "Romeo and Juliet", not the director." "
Okay, Lord Sage Duke." The waiter responded with a smile.
After ordering the shop's signature whale BBQ, Duke waited leisurely for the food to be served. Several tables around him were occupied by his entourage to ensure his safety.
certainly.
The assistant Mulali pays for everything such as ordering food - the money bag when going out is in Mulali's hands.
Heldos, the second-level fantasy beast knight, was sitting behind Duke, staring closely at every diner in the shop. Anyone who wanted to approach, even a waiter, needed to be searched by him to make sure there was no one else. threaten.
The boss trotted over, and after being searched by Herdos, he was released and came to Duke's table.
With a bright smile on his face, he complimented: "Sir Duke, your presence here really makes the humble house shine. This is your first time here. This time, I will treat you to your order. I hope Duke Sage can satisfy me." Wishes."
Duke refused deliberately.
His patent fees have been continuously collected, and money is just a bunch of numbers to him, and there is no need to take advantage of this.
But the boss was sincere, so he accepted it calmly: "Okay, you can invite the boss of my table, and my entourage will pay as usual." "
Hey, good!" The boss was overjoyed.
He continued to compliment and said: "The new spiritual arcane technology you invented has brought great changes to the world. You are the spiritual guide to the Seven Towers Federation. As an ordinary person in the Seven Towers Federation, I wish you the best, Duke Sage, continue Guide the Seven Towers Federation forever!"
"I accept your blessing." Duke smiled slightly.
The boss then bowed and resigned: "Please wait a moment, our kitchen is carefully cooking food for you and your entourage."
Waiting for the boss to retire.
Mulali put her hands on her chin, her eyes filled with little stars: "Sir, you are already world-famous, and everyone is grateful for the great technology you brought!"
Mulashan also put her hands on her chin, using exactly the same method as Mulali. He exclaimed in a tone of admiration: "Yes, when I first met you, sir, I never imagined that even in the Holy City of Aofa, you would be a well-known big shot!" "It's wonderful, isn't it, little Shanshan
. "Mu Lali asked proudly.
Mulashan nodded: "Yes, it's really wonderful!"
Vivian on the side was much calmer: "This is just the beginning for you, sir. I think soon, your mage tower will be in the Holy City of Austrian Law." Towering."
"Haha!" Duke laughed.
The three closest women spoke more and more pleasantly, so he couldn't help but say: "If you can speak, just speak more to pass the boring time of waiting for the meal."
Soon the whale roast was served.
The taste is really good. Duke asked about it and found out that the raw material of this whale roast is not from the 7-ring spirit beast in the Whale Song Mirror Lake - Mirror Lake Singing Whale, nor is it the 9-ring Yalong - Mirror Lake Whale Dragon, but a kind of A 3-ring spirit beast named Little Tailed Dolphin.
"Pack me one," Duke said again.
He planned to take it back to Mentor Penrose to have a taste. If he brought Penrose over this time, he might be delayed for a while.
After eating and drinking, return to Thersus Crystal Palace.
Selsus seemed to know that Duke had something to ask, so he had the tea room prepared in advance, and then made tea himself and performed the Seven Towers Federation's tea ceremony while waiting for Duke's arrival.
"Master Chairman."
"Sit down."
Selsus has already made tea. He does not need any psychic assistance and only relies on his own hands to balance the relationship between tea and water.
"Try the tea I brewed. The tea leaves from the Jasper tea tree, the king of the three-ring trees, are only a little bit every year. One cup is less than one cup." "Thank you, sir." Duke
took the tea and took a sip.
The fragrance lingers on the lips and teeth, and the aftertaste is sweet but bitter.
Compared with ordinary tea water, the taste is not special, but it seems to give people a slightly different taste from the lightness.
It’s so wonderful to recall, but it’s impossible to explain it in detail.
Celsus asked: "How is it?"
Duke replied truthfully: "Nothing comes out of it."
"Haha." Celsus stroked his snow-white beard and laughed, "You are honest, unlike some people Even though you can't taste it, you have to shake your head and say a lot of modifiers, as if this can match your identity." "
Different people have different moods. Even if you drink the same cup of tea, you may taste different flavors due to your mood. ."
"Oh." Celsus looked up at Duke, "What you said makes some sense."
He pushed the tea tray in front of him to the side and said calmly: "That's all, there are more than two hundred. A young tea connoisseur, you are not as clear-minded as a boy."
Duke smiled and said nothing.
After the servants came over to clear the table, Selsas said: "Are you doubtful about activating the will of the stars?" "
Yes."
"Actually, it's nothing. I proposed it at the meeting of the stars." Selsas Si drank the tea in his cup and finished it in two gulps. "The previous default practice was to choose the youngest one from the arcane instructors to start, but this time the candidate is Michael." "Miguel
? "Duke knows this person, "Guardian of the Gravel Realm?"
"Yes, this is the person. I don't want this person to become the opener, so I proposed a new candidate. You are more suitable than him."
Duke frowned.
Selsus saw the worry in his heart and said: "Indeed, if I elect you, you will definitely offend Michael indirectly. But you don't have to worry about anything. He doesn't dare to go out of the gravel field in person. Don't go to the gravel field." Just the field."
"Why is this?"
"I'm worried that Michael may fall."
"Degenerate?" Duke was shocked, "Will the Morning Star Arcane Master also fall?"
Selsus snorted coldly: "So what about Morning Star, once the Ring of Distortion is lost, the Sun Sun Arcane Master will also fall. Sinking Demon."
Then he sighed and said: "Now the stars are in troubled times... Since you have the title of Double Sage, and you have great hope of being added as the chief sage of Offa Tower in the coming year, it doesn't hurt to tell you these things. Today's stars, There are two people who are most likely to fall."
"I would like to hear the details!" Duke said solemnly.
With the Seven Towers Federation's system, Duke can basically guarantee safety as long as he doesn't violate taboos.
The only thing that needs to be taboo is the Sinking Demon. The Sinking Demon will not abide by laws and regulations.
If he was targeted by the Sinking Demon, Duke would not dare to guarantee his own safety with just a Sand Eagle pistol. If he was killed by the Sinking Demon, his death would be in vain.
One of the important reasons why he is unwilling to stay in the Holy City of Arcane is that there may be a Sinking Demon hidden in the Holy City of Arcane. The Sinking Demon is not a walking corpse, but a monster that retains human intelligence and is very good at hiding.
Some weak fallen demons can even practice and advance like arcane mages.
The spiritual river where the Holy City of Arcane is located, Whale Song Mirror Lake, is the best nourishment for the fallen demon. It is possible to live at the bottom of the lake or hide in the belly of a fish.
"The first star that is likely to fall is the Speaker, Lord Andre Evening Primrose." When Selsus spoke of this person, he couldn't help but sit up straighter, and his tone became awed, "Fifty years ago, Master Adlie failed to break into the 9th ring, so he suffered from the problem of being sometimes sober and sometimes confused." "
Hiss!"
Duke took a breath: "President..."
He was really surprised. The position of Speaker, whose full name is Union Tower Standing Conference-Speaker, is the head of state of the entire Seven Towers Federation.
As the most powerful country in mankind, the Chairman of the Seven Towers Federation is undoubtedly the pinnacle of mankind.
And now, Speaker Andre Evening Primrose, who stands at the top of mankind, has become the most likely suspect to fall.
Glancing at Duke, Selsus said lightly: "You don't have to be too surprised. Lord Andre's every move is always monitored by someone. This is also an arrangement made by Lord Andre himself. Even if he falls, he will not be overly surprised." They will be discovered immediately."
"Lord Andre, have you made arrangements?" Duke nodded to express his understanding.
After all, Andre Evening Primrose failed to reach the ninth ring. I am afraid that he had arranged his funeral arrangements early in the morning and had anticipated any consequences.
Even if you fall, you will be targeted immediately.
"The second star that is likely to fall is Michael. He almost fell when he rose to prominence in his early years. Fortunately, his father-in-law, the former guardian of the gravel domain, helped him and awakened his true spirit. This Only by avoiding the danger of sinking."
After listening to what Selsus said, Duke immediately understood: "So, do you think that since he can fall once, it is possible for him to fall a second time?" "
Yes, although the probability is not high. , but after all, it is a layer of risk, so I don’t want him to activate the will of the stars." Selsus said coldly, "If the will of the stars was stolen by a fallen demon, wouldn't it be a big joke!" After a
pause .
Selsus added: "In short, if Michael is hiding in the gravel field, I can't interfere. But as long as he dares to step out of the gravel field, I will keep an eye on him. Once I find evidence of his depravity, I will take action immediately. Kill him!"
As an 8th-level glowing moon arcane instructor, Selsus is confident enough to kill a 7th-level morning star-level sinking demon.
Duke thought for a while and asked: "Sir, if I return to Cuihai City, Michael won't come after me, after all, I robbed him of the opportunity?" "Do you think we are all
decorations, Seven Towers ? The Federation has not experienced the crisis of fallen demons a hundred times, but it has experienced it fifty times. The Council of Stars has long been eyeing every arcane mage who may have fallen. Once exposed, they can be killed instantly." Having said that
.
Duke still felt a little more urgent in his heart.
At this time, Selsus suddenly threw something over: "Take this with you. This is the moonlight cage I made. You can understand it as an 8-ring level arcane card. Once activated, it can form moonlight." The Cage Domain will protect you and support you until our clones arrive."
"Moonlight Cage?" Duke took the item and found it was a round jade mirror, "Sir, does this have something to do with the Star Cage?"
Duke once saw Loren Sankago use the Star Cage, and the starlight covered an area, and even the 9-ring dragon could not escape.
Selsus explained: "They are all applications of the field. The Moonlight Cage field is stronger. It would take three to five hours for the 7-ring Morning Star Arcane Master to break it." "Thank you, sir!" Such a good thing
,
Duke Happy to accept.
The sense of crisis and urgency in my heart has eased slightly, and I am no longer so sensitive to the threat of the Fallen Demon looming on my back.
After putting away the moonlight cage, Duke smiled and said, "I know the adults won't put me in danger." "
Haha, you kid!" Selsus smiled while stroking his beard, "What's on your body The richness of spirituality is rarely seen in the world. It is too late for us to protect you, so how can we put you in danger... As long as you young people grow up smoothly, the spiritual arcana of the Seven Towers Federation will flourish forever." After saying this,
Se Ersus waved his hand and said: "Okay, if your mind has settled down, go back and rest. If you feel bored in the Crystal Palace, go have a dance. All the noble ladies in the Holy City of Offa and the eighteen surrounding cities are looking forward to it." I know you."
"Then I'll take my leave first." Duke stood up and left.
Naturally, he wasn't interested in having a dance or anything like that, but he was very interested in the collection of books in the Crystal Palace and some rare arcane wonder buildings.
in addition.
He has already asked clearly. There is a three-ring king tree in the Crystal Palace, which is the source of the tea leaves for the previous tea - the jasper tea tree.
The mage towers of arcane instructors would look very shabby if they did not plant a 3-ring tree king.
And there are enough spiritual particles here to maintain the growth of the 3-ring tree king.
"Lord Duke, this is the jasper tea tree, the king of three-ring trees. Our master dug it from the mountains a hundred and eighty years ago and planted it here." A steward from the Crystal Palace brought Duke here. Arrive at the jasper tea tree planting area.
Because the Crystal Palace is built at the bottom of the lake.
Therefore, in order to meet the jasper tea tree's need for sunlight, a small sun is fixed in the planting area using arcane magic, which emits sunlight at all times and illuminates the jasper tea tree.
It also simulates sunrise and sunset, making it close to the natural environment in all aspects.
"I'm going to rest here for a while, Mr. Butler, please help yourself," Duke said.
The butler immediately bowed and excused himself: "Then I will leave here first. If Lord Duke has any orders, please instruct the servants outside the door, or ask them to call me over and serve you personally." Wait for the butler to leave
.
Duke patted his belly: "Chicken, get up and work, let's get together!"
"Ah!" Yawned, the sleepy chicken bit Duke's finger in a daze, and then merged with Duke and entered. Elf form.
The next moment, the breath resonance is established.
Duke had already felt the breathing rhythm of the three-ringed tree king - the Jasper Tea Tree. After a moment, he was in a trance and was brought into the memory of time by the natural power of the Jasper Tea Tree.
What begins as a seed grows into a giant tea bush.
Then one day, the memory rippled, and in the blurry image, a powerful arcane mage ripped off the skin of a spiritual beast that dominated the territory, and then a group of vague humans uprooted the tea bush. Dig up.
In a blink of an eye.
The memories of time are in this small planting area. People come to clean and prune it every day, until today.
"Huh."
Duke exhaled a breath: "The powerful arcane mage who can't see clearly must be Lord Selsus."
The Jasper Tea Tree said nothing, but had already told him everything.
And gave a gift, which was a small tea tree growing out of the air sea behind the mysterious vines, ten thousand-year-old pine towers, and green banyan trees.
The spiritual seed of jasper tea tree.
"Hmm!" Duke sat down cross-legged. In the spiritual sea, new mysteries had also formed visions, and from each vision, tea leaves grew.
"Refreshing Jasper Tea Tree."
"The fourth secret, yes, it is very useful for me to maintain mental clarity at all times, especially when doing research, when I need refreshment the most!" Duke said from the tea vision. Caught the blur and was happy with it.
