Lant still remembered that Gu Leiya was engaged, and did not dare to show too much initiative, for fear that others or Gu Leiya would misunderstand. For Rand now, the most important thing is to explore Yeqi City and settle down the thousands of people who originally lived on the Galloping Horse Plains.
A genius classmate like Gu Leya is just like the great fairy Riel Arbor on Longtai Mountain. Although she looks beautiful, she has little to do with her.
On the morning of Thursday, December 22, Lant arrived at the library early in the morning. He wanted to spend some time learning more about magic in this world. He asked the administrator on the first floor for books on the principles of magic. The administrator asked him to Go to the 4th floor.
In his previous life, Lant lived for more than 30 years. He had read several novels and watched dozens of movies. In this life, he became a demon possessor and could faintly detect magic and fighting spirit through his senses. However, in two lifetimes, he Life experience and knowledge cannot tell him what magic is or what its characteristics are.
The fourth floor of the Blue Dragon Library is very similar to the fifth floor that Lant visited. The outermost bookshelves are filled with ordinary books about magic. These books include ancient stone slabs and booklets made of animal skin paper. , there were also exquisite printed books that Lant had seen before, and Lant found almost 20 of them.
In Lant's original expectation, these books could bring a general definition of magic, and in the future he could continue to verify the concepts in the books through his own practice.
However, what makes Lant incredible is that he found 20 books that gave him no less than 30 definitions of magic.
For example, the dizzying carvings on the oldest slate are described in the introduction paper on the side. The slate records the discussion of magic by the demigod "The Only One": Magic comes from the will of the Lord God, and the world All the gods are the main gods and various aspects.
For example, the animal skin book of the witch sect records the oracle of the witch god. The entire world is composed of wind, fire, water, earth, wood, light and dark elements.
For example, one manuscript, based on the oracle of Leo, the demigod of magic strings, believes that magic is the resonance of the strings of the soul and the strings of the world.
There is even a withered yellow leaf that records that the entire world is a "master" of life, and every individual is a "part of the master".
It can be said that the source of magic is the source of the world and the source of the power of gods. Therefore, every book that introduces magic is based on the oracle of a god or demigod, and clearly explains the origin and composition of magic at the beginning.
In this world, gods really exist and can appear in the world. Their oracles are not only words, but also reflect the attitude of gods.
After briefly flipping through a few books with oracles, Lant felt his head hurt, and his nose, eyes and ears were full of blood.
"Classmate? Are you okay?" A boy who was reading on the side suddenly shouted, "Come here quickly, this classmate has fainted."
Lant was in great pain at the moment, with congestion in many parts of his body, which even made it difficult for him to breathe. In a daze, he could only see that the fourth-floor roof was getting farther and farther away from him, getting deeper and deeper, and the surrounding area was getting brighter and brighter.
The students gradually gathered around, calling for themselves, but all that could be heard at this moment was breathing.
The distant sky seemed to be filled with endless murmurs, waves, smoke and dust, lightning and thunder, and countless powerful forces constantly entangled and quarreled.
"Your Majesty, please save the believer in front of you, point him in a new direction, and dispel the haze in front of him." When Lant was about to fall to the ground, he felt himself being caught by a pair of big hands, followed by a soft voice. .
Immediately afterwards, Lant seemed to see a ray of light, his soul was surrounded by holy light, and his body became warm.
"Go back." A warm current fell from the sky, as if a big hand was supporting him.
Amid the bursts of sound, Lant opened his eyes.
"Viscount Lant? Are you awake?" The first thing Lant saw was the concerned expression of Gulea Blue Dragon.
As soon as she arrived at the library to read a book, she heard someone calling for help. She originally thought it was a student who lost control of his spellcasting, but she didn't expect to see Lant fall to the ground.
"Mr. Viscount, I still recommend that you stay in school for one year. Even students who have just enrolled for half a year know that these books should not be read at the same time." The dragon girl glanced around casually and roughly understood Lant's current situation. .
How can a mortal define the origin of magic? Even a magister can only allow himself to connect to the magic network and feel the magical elements.
Those who truly understand magic are naturally those gods, especially the Witch God, the Wizard God, and even the Goddess of the Magic Network. The definition of the Magic Network by these gods is their most fundamental teaching. Therefore, after reading the works of many gods in a short period of time, it is It is equivalent to leaving one temple with the front foot and going to another temple with the back foot.
If it were an ordinary non-demon person, the impact would actually not be big, but Lant's soul was particularly sensitive to Gao Wei's gaze.
Fortunately, Lant is not the first daredevil to compare two or two copies of the oracle. In order to protect these students who are most thirsty for magic, the school library has also arranged a large number of requiem and concentration circles in the library. in case.
"Even if you are a magister, I don't dare think of you reading the oracles of the gods like this." Gu Leiya said with a smile, "For the gods, magic is magic, but they put their own perspective on the oracles. It has become a channel for their followers to understand magic.
Just like the observation hole opened on a door, the scene in the magician's house, the location of each hole is different, but the content behind the hole is the same.
Now you want to see the hole at the bottom of the door with one eye, and the other eye wants to see the hole at the top of the door, which makes you miserable. "
Rant understood what Gu Leiya meant, so he borrowed a metaphor from his previous life, "I saw several huge tubes in the holes under the door, and a pair of huge white teeth in the holes next to the door lock. , and I saw a slender tail on the hole near the hinge. If I didn't look at the holes in different parts, how would I know that there was an elephant behind it?"
"Hahaha, your metaphor is very vivid." There is no allusion to the blind man touching the elephant in this world, but there is a very similar proverb, "You are just a beginner now. It is good to be able to see the inside of the door through the small hole. Don't be too greedy."
When you are connected to the magic network and feel the magic of magic, you will understand today's metaphor."
Lant has nothing to do now, so Guleya naturally has to leave. Before leaving, Guleya gave Lant a textbook called "Magic Famous Masters". It is a book for enlightenment of magic apprentices, and it is also mentioned in it. The definition and origin of magic does not go back to the gods, but lists the views of various magic schools and sects in the form of schools.
Lant was very grateful, but the book was not thin. Lant felt that he might not be able to read it today, so he went to the first floor to check out the book.
Fortunately, as a royal noble of the royal palace, it is very convenient for Lant to borrow an ordinary book. He can return it at any time within a year. Even if he cannot exchange it, he can still pay some money to the Blue Dragon family as compensation.
