"The baron sent someone to ask you to serve as a clerk in the prison?" Hedwig was surprised and confused, "It's time for the market."
"Well, according to the obligations of the townspeople, I can't refuse this matter." After a pause, Chen Yi added: "However, they said they would send someone to help me transport the dyed leather back, and they would also give me subsidies. "
"Is it much? If it's not much, don't go." Hedwig said with concern.
"Two copper dirrs a day, about ten days, and there will be ten copper dirrs left at the end of the period."
For Chen Yi, this subsidy was satisfactory. After ten days, he received thirty copper deir, which converted to about five silver deir.
"That's not bad." Hedwig smiled.
"I'm going to take over the work in the afternoon. I'll be there soon." Chen Yi panicked slightly.
In fact, I will start taking over the work tomorrow. In the afternoon, I will complete the first ritual to induce spirituality and meet the patron Kerim for the first time.
............
At dusk, Chen Yi walked quickly along the Honey River, turning left and right, and came to the college.
After a fruitless investigation, the Baron confirmed the fact that the wizard was missing and signed a document to transfer the academy to Qasim.
Qasim disbanded the academy, and the once bustling chapel fell into a long silence. It has since become a gathering place for the exclusive Celestial Society.
Four familiar magic towers came into view, and Chen Yi pushed open the church door with familiarity.
"Chen Yi, I'm waiting for you."
Kasim and others gathered at the stone table in the hall early.
Idelai squatted boredly under the icon, holding the icon's hand with both hands. This child had a rebellious contempt for faith. Roman was much calmer. He sat on the long table and read books, with the hem of his robe hanging down to the back of the table.
Qasim examined the materials used in this ritual.
"I didn't know you were so early," Chen Yi asked after glancing around, "Have the Crimean scholars not arrived yet?"
Kasim shook his head and said: "The scholar's blue-feathered parrot sent a letter. He will be late, but he will definitely be able to catch up with the stars tonight."
Chen Yi nodded slightly.
Inducing spirituality is not a single ritual that can be successfully completed, but a series of rituals, either intermittent or continuous. Depending on the school of magic, the number and content of the rituals are also different.
The mainstream platinum magic is also from their school, which divides the ceremony into three times, corresponding to the school's main themes of "life", "death" and "transcendence".
Qasim explained the outline of the first life ceremony, which mainly involves matching ritual materials and drawing stars, so as to open the eyes of spiritual vision and observe the celestial realm.
"We need to get a glimpse of the insignificance of life, rather than immerse ourselves in it." Qasim now added, "Don't panic, even if the ritual fails, your life is not in danger."
Chen Yi and Roman nodded after hearing this. Except for Idelai, the youngest Idelai was excluded from inducing spirituality due to lack of ritual materials. According to Qasim's calculations, it will be around next month, when the stars will be only slightly worse than these days.
Several people began to wait for Kerim quietly.
I don't know how long it took, but no one noticed that the second sage Kerim stood outside the door without warning. He had a long and thick aquiline nose, thick and old lips, a short stature, less than 1.6 meters, and long and pointed ears. long.
He wielded his oak cane and stepped neatly into the chapel. Halfway there, he knocked on the floor hard, which shocked everyone. The crisp impact made people have to move their eyes and look at the underside of Crimea's eyebrows. With eyes like eagles, he was satisfied with this feeling.
"Sage Kerim, when did you come?" Kasim said respectfully. He turned around and introduced everyone present to Kerim one by one.
After the introduction, Kerim stroked his long beard. His smock-like robe was seriously dragging the floor. This did not prevent him from showing a majestic attitude: "Apprentices, I am entrusted by Cassim, the son of an old friend, to serve as a teacher. You induce spirituality so that the inheritance will not be cut off and there will be no successors."
Although he was short in stature, everyone present did not dare to look down upon him. He was one of the best sages in the world.
You know, their previous teacher, Lucius, who had been immersed in law for decades, was just a scholar.
"The stars are about to reach their peak. There is not much time for us to get to know each other. There is no need for me to get to know you. We will go there now without further delay." Kerim did as he said, immediately turned around and acted resolutely.
"This is the character of the Crimean Sage," Qasim explained with a wry smile towards Chen Yi and Roman.
Chen Yi nodded and followed.
The ceremony took place at the best location for observing the stars, a mound on the outskirts of Resurrection Town. Kerim took the lead in climbing to the top of the mound. He took out a black-handled knife from his robe. This is a kind of knife commonly used by wizards to threaten spirits and draw magic. Round ceremonial knife.
The sage lay down on the ground in a very graceless manner, inserted the black-handled knife into the soil, and drew scratches. Chen Yi could tell that he was a hands-on person.
Kasim came forward with a tacit understanding, carrying the crushed herbs. The black paste had some crystals in it that reflected in the moonlight. It was ruby sapphire powder. Acorn powder, moon grass, succulent cactus, lizard blood, as well as over-fermented wine and gemstone powder, he revealed the recipe for this potion without reservation beforehand.
Kerim quickly carved the magic circle and took out his pocket watch, which was a new gadget of the dwarves. He looked at the starry sky where Elk and Wings met in the sky to confirm again and again.
"There are still four hours before midnight. At this time, the Saint Baishe Angel is on duty, which is just right." Kerim muttered. He turned his head and urged: "You two, stand here quickly and follow I say prayers to communicate with the celestial realm.”

This pure body, Lomea was born amidst bursts of blessings. A spiritual messenger rejected all spiritual creations. From birth, she must always be pure, body, mind, and love, so she tried not to touch it. Money isolates vulgarity and spends her days reciting sutras. When she spends her girlhood in holiness and completes a part of the road of spiritual envoy, she will soar into the sky with countless feathers. From then on, she will be respected by thousands, body and mind, That has been there since Lomea was born, so all that is left is love.
Lighting the bee candle on the table, Lomea solemnly sat down at the table, keeping the holy object just a stone's throw away from her.
After fasting for several days and seeking prophecies and divination several times, she finally picked up her quill and laid out the papyrus she had prepared for a long time on the table.
"Our great chief priest, the helmsman of our ship, the agent of the human will of our king, I offer you my most respectful greetings with the most respectful tone."
After writing the first paragraph, Luo Mei lost his mind for a moment.
The person she was writing to now was the chief priest of the temple who was in charge of all things within the church. That angel on earth, the human agent of the gods, could only be compared with the true Pope.
She originally planned to wait for a while and make more observations to avoid acting too hastily.
"Chen Yi..." She murmured, her eyes firm, "I can't wait any longer."
"I've been hesitating for a long time, and finally I can write to tell you this..."
