my age of magic

Chapter 653 153. Three Conditions
There was a wooden ladder in front of the bookshelf. Mr. Bruce pushed the ladder slowly, stopped at the corner of the wall, looked up for a long time, and finally frowned, pointing to a thick magic book on the top, yes I said, "Climb up and help me get that magic book down."

That wooden ladder looks very old, the edges and corners of the entire wooden ladder have been ground very smooth, and the whole ladder is covered with a layer of paste, the surface is smooth and I can learn from it. It is made of iron wood.

Climbing up the wooden ladder, I found at the top that the magic book here seemed to have been left untouched for a long time, and it was covered with thick dust.

Pull out the magic book and make it dusty for a while.

This book is very heavy, and there is a very hard layer of monster skin on the surface. No wonder Mr. Bruce asked me to hold it down. Stepping back up, Bruce looked at the magic badge pattern on the cover of the magic book, reached out and groped the uneven texture for a moment, then nodded slowly and said: "Yes, this is the book."

He reached out to take the book, held it in his hand, turned around and walked to the test bench, placed the magic book on the test bench, glanced at me, then waved to me, let me stand opposite him .

Open the ancient magic book, which is a book that records some ancient magic rituals, and the patterns of magic altars appear many times on the parchment pages.

"I thought I didn't need to open it before I died!" Bruce said to me with his head down. He looked at the pages with a complicated expression, feeling a little tangled in his heart.

It seems that this book has some great attraction, so that he can't control his thoughts of wanting to read it, but he is a little afraid to read it, as if there is a devil hidden in this book.

"What do those symbols represent?" I pointed to some magical patterns on the page and asked Bruce curiously.

"Rebirth, resurrection, reincarnation... The whole book talks about these things. Those sages of soul science solved the mystery of the lich's immortality. They worked together to write a wonderful book about resurrection, but this book was A Lich King cursed that anyone who gained power from this magic book would fall into the underworld after death and become an undead lich. It is said that the author of this book became a Lich after death. "Bruce raised his eyebrows and glanced at me before saying.

My expression froze, the courses of the Academy of Magic did not involve the knowledge of the soul, but this ancient mystical theory always has many unexplainable things.

Bruce pointed to the simplest symbol, glanced at me, and said to me: "This symbol represents death. This is the text of the undead family. When translated, it can be understood as: In fact, when you really get eternal life , death might not be a relief."

After opening the magic book, I realized that the book only has a few dozens of pages, but those parchment pages are a bit thick, making the whole magic book look very heavy.

Vice President Bruce fixed his hand on a page that painted a huge altar. His eyes were already bloodshot, and there was a trace of anxiety in his expression. The veins on his forehead were bulging, and he seemed to be unable to control himself.I can't understand Bruce's state at the moment. He should be affected by the content in the book to become like this.

Just as I was thinking about whether to wake up Dean Bruce, who was immersed in the magic book, Vice-Principal Bruce finally exhaled slowly at this moment. He closed his eyes to calm his mind, and then slowly He opened his eyes slowly, and the red threads in his eyes slowly faded away.

Then he looked at me, pressed one hand on the pattern on the page, and said to me: "The records here are the methods of awakening the incomplete soul, but these ancient books have been handed down to this day, and I don't know how many years have passed. There is no way to verify whether the method is feasible, and the conditions required are so harsh that you will need to pay a great price..."

"I won't give up, please tell me, Master Bruce."

"Well, since that's the case, I won't say much else, come and see here..." Vice President Bruce pointed to a line of text on the page with his old finger, and said to me: "Here is written about awakening the soul." The three elements, magic weapon, gemstone, and magic circle, need you to get all three things together to awaken your sister's soul."

Bruce said: "First of all, you need a 'soul horn'. According to the book, this horn is made from the head of a sea monster in the endless sea. The soul is awakened again, remembering that such a soul horn is treasured in the royal palace of the Janna sea clan, and the Janna royal clan once appeared with that horn in the battle of Haiyinsi City 18 years ago."

He glanced at me lightly from the corner of his eyes, and continued: "Secondly, you need to have a 'soul gem'. This soul gem will become a carrier for storing souls. Become a complete soul. The so-called soul gem is condensed from the soul fire in the skull of the undead grand lich. This thing appeared in the auction house of the imperial capital a while ago, but you'd better be mentally prepared. Very expensive."

"Finally, there needs to be an altar that can hold ancient magical rituals. The so-called soul altar is a kind of ancient relic according to the records in the book. This altar should belong to the category of miracles. Unfortunately, I have not heard of the Grimm Empire. This kind of altar has appeared anywhere in the world, so you need to search for it slowly, maybe the adventurers in the tavern will know some news, but you have to be careful and carefully distinguish what they said."

After listening to this, my head started to feel a little big. The soul gem is okay, at least it has appeared in the auction house, but the 'soul horn' and 'ancient altar' are things that I have never heard of. Where can I find them? ah!

There was an indescribable frustration in my heart, and I finally knew why Vice President Bruce had repeatedly reminded me to choose my own rewards. Unfortunately, I didn't hear the implication of his words, or I was too persistent. Knowing that this matter is extremely difficult, we must move forward.

I stared dejectedly at Sister Guoguo's water elemental spirit, thinking that this is the end of the matter, and I don't allow any thought of retreating.

Maybe go to those taverns and thieves' guilds, but buy some news about this.

When I was in a daze, I heard Vice President Bruce say again: "If you have the opportunity to gather these together, there will be a small awakening ceremony at the end, and I will translate the process of the ceremony and the magic spells needed into Grimm Empire language." And help you copy it down, the ceremony also requires you to draw a not very complicated magic pattern circle on the altar, but isn't drawing magic pattern circles your best?"

Hearing Bruce's question, I nodded, and then he handed me a large piece of magic parchment, pointed to a magic pattern circle on the page, and said to me: "Come and trace this magic circle! "

……

Coming out of Vice President Bruce's laboratory, he looked at Sister Guoguo, the spirit of the water element, standing beside her, taking a deep breath, and said to her, "Sister Guoguo, I It must wake you up."

Shuttle between the corridors of the Magic Research Institute, and walk towards Yerkes' magic laboratory. Yerkes said that he wanted me to find him.

Along the way, many magician assistants greeted me one after another. Most of them are assistants of other magic scholars. We occasionally chat with each other in the garden of the courtyard of the institute when we are resting.

Later, I learned from these young magicians that the assistant of the Yerkes scholar was once a hot spot for the assistants. The reason is that although the Yerkes scholar has unconstrained inspiration, he He is a handicapped party, and he can't even draw the simplest magic pattern completely, so the assistant of the Yerkes scholar has the opportunity to get in touch with the drawing work of the magic pattern circle.

This is a great opportunity for magicians who want to become inscribers, so many young magicians who have experience in making magic scrolls want to be assistants under Yerkes.

However, in the past year, as many as a dozen young magicians have been scolded and run away by Yerkes scholars, and I have become the ultimate beneficiary.

Climb to the second-floor terrace, push open the very familiar laboratory door, and walk in.

Yerkes was bending over, carefully wiping a piece of hard leather armor with a brush. This hard leather armor was engraved with magic lines, and there was a groove inlaid with magic crystals on the chest, the size of an egg. The earthy yellow crystals are inlaid squarely inside, and traces of the breath of earth-type magic elements continuously spread outward from the leather armor.

Although the material and shape of this leather armor are slightly different from those of the chain mail, but seeing the familiar magic patterns on the leather armor, I immediately recognized that the magic pattern circle engraved on this leather armor is not the "Land of the Earth" Shield'?

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, the Yerkes scholar did not turn his head, and continued to concentrate on maintaining the breastplate made of magic patterns with a brush.

He asked casually: "Come back? Things are done? Bruce told you the answer you want?"

"Yeah!" I pulled a chair beside him and sat down, and then said with a wry smile: "But things are not very optimistic, and I still need to prepare some things. Those things are very rare, and it may be difficult to find them." !"

"But there is hope after all, isn't it?" He smiled and comforted me.

This sentence from the Yerkes scholar has entered my heart, and it is indeed the case. At least for now, there is hope and a goal to strive for.

I smiled slightly and said, "Yeah!"

"It seems that my worries are unnecessary. You don't need other people's comfort at all, because you know exactly what you are doing!" Yerkes put down the brush in his hand, straightened his waist, and stretched his sore body a little. body, put his hands on my shoulders and said happily.

"Actually, my idea is very simple. I just want to wake her up. She must be asleep!" I looked at Sister Guoguo's water elemental spirit and said softly.

Yerkes also sat down, took a sip of water, and said, "I heard that in a few days, you will follow the academy to experience in other planes?"

I said: "Yellow plane, the grand duke of Samoyed of the empire is now responsible for opening up the territory, we are going to hunt monsters in the unknown area over there."

Yerkes untied the leather armor hanging from the rack and handed it to me.

Said to me: "I said, I will give you a gift before you go to the plane to experience, look! It is this leather armor, which is my original work, but Bruce said that this breastplate needs to be made into a A piece of metal armor, that would make the whole set of magic pattern outfit look more heroic, so it was kept. This is a leather breastplate magic pattern outfit with the 'earth shield', which can be used in places where you need to protect When the time comes, activate three 'earth shields' to protect you."

"The shield of the earth?" I thought he would give me a magic robe or something, but I didn't expect it to be a leather breastplate with a magic pattern structure, and it also has very obvious defensive magic skills. This leather armor It might be more suitable to wear on a swordsman or a ranger.

Yerkes has always been very proud of his proud work, and Vice President Bruce also appreciates the magic pattern structure he designed, but if only such a magic pattern is drawn on this leather breastplate skills, then there seems to be nothing special about this magic pattern structure.

Scholar Yerkes proudly introduced to me: "Hmm~ That's right, among the four elemental shields of the Atmospheric Aegis, Fire Shield, Ice Shield, and Earth Shield, the Atmospheric Aegis can resist The magic of the outside world, the fire shield can burn the opponent when attacking, the ice shield will slow down the opponent's speed, but the defense of the earth shield is the strongest."

"However, if the structure of this magic pattern is just as simple as this, then there is nothing unusual about it. In fact, what makes it really unique is that it has a very special lining!" Yerkes said. The scholar unbuttoned the leather armor, and let me see that the inside of the magic-weave structure is actually lined with a very soft and soft leather.

Then, I saw a simplified 'magic fast recovery' magweave circle on the lining, so it was like this!
"If it is used by professional fighters, the magic pattern on the lining of this armor will become a 'physical strength recovery' magic pattern. That's it, I let these two skills be integrated into the same magic pattern In terms of structure, it looks a little stronger than the general magic pattern structure, but in fact it is not very effective." The Yerkes scholar laughed at himself and added: "It's just a sensationalist, But after all, there are some special places, and now those young children of nobles and wealthy families are so poor that they only have money left!"

"You always claim to be a melee mage, and I heard that you don't want to use a staff in battle, and prefer to charge up with an ax?" The Yerkes scholar glanced at me, and then asked.

I grinned, as a default.

Yerkes asked me again: "And I heard that you also joined a club that advocates the 'combination of melee combat and magic skills'?"

I explained: "Sword and Rose Club, the main purpose of our club is to defeat the enemy by combining the skills of fighting skills in the process of fighting and casting spells!"

Finally, he stuffed the leather armor into my hand and said: "Although I don't agree with this point of view, since this is your choice, then I will support you. This hard leather armor suitable for melee combat is a gift. For you!"
