30. A classmate who lives next door

"Are you an inscriptionist? I think you're drawing a magic pattern like a stick figure, one stroke without a pause, how the hell did you do that?" Noah sat on my bed, his eyes full of adoration. www.biquge.info His skin was very white and as smooth as milk, he had blonde curls that were soft on his forehead, a pair of deep blue eyes that were constantly brushed by long eyelashes, a high nose bridge was very straight, and his lips were slightly thin, with a kind of pride peculiar to nobles.

I sat on the chair in front of the test bench, looked at the new neighbor seriously, and learned from his mouth that he was also a freshman at the Royal Academy of Magic this year, and from Bena Province, which is a large province in the south of the imperial capital, where the most famous is the famous Bena Swordsman, many swordsmanship people come to Bena, Noah is the leader of this year's Bena Province Junior Magic Academy, he relied on his own strength, obtained a letter of admission to the Royal Academy of Magic.

Noah is not like me, he relied on his own strength, defeated all his opponents among the more than 200 magic graduates in Bena Province, and fought his way out of the blood.

I relied on a letter of recommendation, which made me feel a little overwhelmed, but it was clear that Noah didn't see it that way, and he thought I was just a cool one.

"I'm not an inscriptionist, but I'm working on it, maybe later!" I said casually. Reach out and unscrew the glass cap of the magic inkwell on the table, and place a piece of magic parchment casually on the lab table.

I picked up the ordinary magic pen and drew a 'fire-gathering' magic scroll on a palm-sized piece of magical parchment almost without pause, then expertly rolled the scroll up, tied it with just one hand, and set it aside. As I continued to dip myself in the ink, I said to Noah, who was obviously at a loss, "As for how I did it, I think it's probably because practice makes perfect!"

Noah sat on the sidelines and almost looked stupid.

I don't know what kind of experience it was to watch me draw a magic scroll, but according to Marven, it was an extremely desperate experience that could make a motivated person more motivated and a desperate person more desperate. Marvin, on the other hand, rarely likes to walk into my attic, and he chats with me, mostly in the living room downstairs, and sometimes he plays tricks with Tracy.

I think it's better to explain this new friend carefully, and the magic pen keeps tumbling between my fingers, like a magic wand.

I said to him: "Actually, there is nothing unusual, if you are also on the same size of magic parchment, repeatedly copy such a simple fire magic pattern circle tens of thousands of times, you will be like me, almost as skilled in pen movement, this is my daily work, I make some money every day by making such a secondary magic scroll, of course it is very cheap, I have to draw at least ten almost every day, I come from the north, where the winter is very long, there is a great demand for many fire magic scrolls." ”

"I see!" Noah said with a relieved look on his face. "How did you learn to draw a magic pattern circle, your movements just now are so handsome, can you draw another one?"

Noah felt a little embarrassed, and then explained, "The water tank in the bathroom of my room doesn't have rune metal plates, isn't my request too much?"

I blinked my eyes and said to the straightforward young magician, "I'd love to be able to help you!"

......

Together, we installed a 'fire-gathering' magic rune board under the water tank in his bathroom, and then at Noah's invitation, I visited his room, his room was next door to mine, and the whole room was very tidy, and the walls around it were re-covered with new wallpaper, and the windows were replaced with new gauze curtains, and I couldn't make out what kind of precious fabric it was.

The bedding on the wooden bed against the wall was cut from magic cloth, this kind of fabric that was more high-end than silk I had only seen in the magic shop, but this kind of magic cloth was used to sew magic robes, and he used it extravagantly to make a quilt, the wardrobe door next to the bed was so casually open, and there were neat rows of magic suits hung inside, full of all kinds of magic suits, there were ordinary magic robes, there were also suits divided into tops and pants, and there were even two sets of dresses that looked extremely gorgeous, all ironed very straight, neatly arranged in the wardrobe, and on the other side of the wardrobe was a whole row of white shirts, and the bow tie at the neckline had been tied。

There was a gorgeous blanket on the wooden floor of the room, and on the bookshelf on the other side of the wall, I saw a bookshelf of magic books, I walked to the side of the bookshelf, opened a random copy of the "Water Magic Skill Manual", turned to Noah in surprise and asked, "These magic books are yours?"

You must know that the magic books made of this magic parchment are generally manuscripts, and the value of each magic book is very expensive.

One of the reasons why these magic academies are highly respected is that they have a large collection of magic books, and in addition to studying in class, many students will spend all their time in the library in addition to meditation, and strive to read all the books in the library during their school days.

Magic books are as expensive as magic pattern construction, so even some ordinary aristocratic families can hardly afford to buy some magic books, and if you have a lot of money, buying magic books is far less valuable than buying magic pattern construction.

At least I know that none of the students at the Academy of War Magic in El City can have a magic book or two at home.

Noah leaned on the test bench, reached out and picked up a bottle of golden magic potion, gently pushed the cork on it with his thumb, the pale green potion inside immediately bubbled, he skillfully poured the potion from the bottle into the two goblins, and then handed me one of the wine glasses, and drank the pale green potion in the other wine glass with his head up.

This is a bottle of 'Spiritual Power Potion', which is worth at least ten gold coins or more, and it is almost priceless in El City, and sometimes you can't buy it if you want to.

Many magic apprentices are stuck at level nine, and they can't comprehend the magic vortex for a long time, and they can't be promoted to formal magicians, which is a lack of spiritual power, so this kind of spiritual power potion is tantamount to upgrading potion for those magic apprentices who can't advance for a long time, and many people can't ask for a small bottle, but I didn't expect that here in Noah, he actually casually took out the 'spiritual power potion' and drank it as an ordinary drink.

"I brought these books from home, if you want to read any of them, please feel free, don't be polite to me!" he smiled at me, then raised his goblet and gestured to me.

I shrugged my shoulders, raised my head and drank all the 'spiritual power potion' in the wine glass, and then I felt a warm current rushing down my esophagus into my stomach, and a huge spiritual power exploded in my body, pulling my whole person closer to the endless star field at once, my body floated in the void, and I felt that my body became completely transparent like a crystal, and my divine consciousness and soul spread out of my body, and then I clearly saw my body.

Suddenly, I realized that this was obviously not a star field in another time and space, nor was it a void, but a subdimensional space of my own.

Hundreds of years ago, a legendary magician discovered a magical subdimensional space and created the ' Time stagnation' magic skill, in fact, this magic is very simple, after a successful spell, you can enter your own subdimensional space, and will stay in it for two or three seconds, this two or three seconds of time, for others, is infinitely close to zero, and except for the magician himself, he can't bring anything into the subdimensional space, including other magic skills he casts, that is to say, the magic pattern circle drawn by the magician in the subdimensional space actually exists in the real space, but the magician's body enters the subdimensional space, in two secondsIf the magician is able to complete a magic skill in less than two seconds, then with the help of the 'Time Standstill' magic, an instantaneous spell will be born.

Each mage has his own subdimensional space, and in this completely own space, no one else can break into.

This state only stayed inexplicably for less than half a second, and I suddenly retreated from the subdimensional space, and the scenery around my body suddenly changed, which made me very uncomfortable.

Obviously, Noah didn't know that after drinking that cup of spiritual power potion in the last moment, I suddenly entered my own subdimensional space, walked around and came out again.

Noah looked at the goblet in my hand and was stunned, pointed to the spiritual power potion on the potion shelf on the test bench, and asked me, "Do you want another bottle?"

I relieved myself, looked at him a little speechlessly, and asked, "Do you usually drink these spiritual power potions as drinks?"

Noah rubbed his hands a little embarrassed, nodded and said, "That's right, my teacher said that drinking this thing often can increase some spiritual strength, and he often told me that for a magician, the damage of magic skills and the capacity of the magic pool depend on the strength of magic (intelligence), and the magic resistance of magicians, The speed of spell casting and the speed of magic recovery depend on the strength of mental power, and the improvement of intelligence depends on non-stop meditation, but it is difficult to improve mental power, and only in continuous casting or fighting, mental power will grow slowly, so he suggested that I usually take some mental power potions, this thing has no side effects, at best, it is a little drug resistance, and it doesn't matter if you have that medicine, this potion can be used for nothing other than to stimulate the growth of mental power. ”

As if he felt that he was showing off his wealth a little bit, he smiled embarrassedly, and Noah's smile gave people a very sunny and sincere smile.

I casually took out a copy of "Detailed Explanation of the Elementary Water System Magic Pattern Array" from the bookshelf, and flipped through it in my hand casually.

"If you like it, take it back and remember to give it back!" Noah smiled and said to me.

I shook the empty glass in my hand, and finally swallowed the phrase, "Are you so generous to other students?" back into my stomach. He simply said: "Okay, when I need it, I'll come to you to borrow it, before the start of school, I can't calm down to read a book, I think it's better to familiarize yourself with the environment here." ”

Noah stood on the balcony and looked out into the plaza through the fountain in front of the dormitory building, where a group of young men and women had gathered.

Noah asked me, "Would you like to go to the academy together?"

I hesitated and said, "Is it too late?"

I'm worried that the dorm keeper will close the door too soon, and I don't want to spend the night on the lawn of the Royal Academy of Magic on my first night.

"You haven't settled into the intense learning atmosphere, you probably don't know how those seniors are studying like crazy in the academy, this time is probably not over compared to the evening class of the senior year! Noah looked into the small square with bright eyes.

From time to time, there were a few cheerful silver bell-like laughter in the small square, which made Noah's heart grow grass.

I also want to dissolve into the new life of the magic academy as soon as possible, so I agreed to Noah's proposal, as for the magic scroll that promised Marven to send back a magic box every week, I had to come back to the dormitory later, and it would be too late to draw it at night.

Walking with Noah along the granite slab path by the pool in the direction of the small square, I noticed some magicians standing in the secluded glade, constantly using their wands to quickly draw magic circles in front of their eyes, but before he could finish his incantation, the circles were scattered in a very unstable situation. There are also some seniors who stand silently on the stone steps by the pool, using magic to guide the water in the pool to dance like a ribbon in front of him, and then form a variety of three-dimensional vivid patterns, which is practicing the control of the water element.

On the bench in the distance, I could always see someone holding a thick magic book, carefully flipping through it, and some jerky and difficult spells came out of their mouths, which made me fall into this rich learning atmosphere.

Turning my head to look at the exquisite stone carvings on the marble squares next to the stone steps by the pool, I was amazed at how the stonemasons carved the silky delicate texture on the blue-eyed blood carved feathers, and the texture was so clear that the winged blood carvings stood vividly on the square stone piers.

"This is a blood sculpture that has been gazed at by the fourth-level demonic beast Medusa, it looks like a stone sculpture!" Noah explained to me as he stood beside me, grinning, his eyes darting over the crowd in the square, as if searching for his own prey.

Only then did I realize that this was not carved by the stonemasons with fine craftsmanship, but a real petrified blood sculpture, and this complete petrified state reminded me of the magic skill 'petrified skin' on my turquoise drum, and I thought: What if this magic fails one day? Will the effect of the stone skin on the body always be retained on the body, in that case, it will be terrible.

While I was thinking nonsense, Noah stood aside and suddenly asked me, "So, Jijia, your life and profession is Mingwen?"

"Yes, the barrier to entry is relatively low, and my magic master said that I have a talent for drawing magic scrolls, so what about you, Noah, do you have a career in life?" I asked Noah next to me curiously.

"Of course, why not?" Noah thought my question was strange and looked at me with wide eyes.

"It doesn't matter if you don't have a life or a career!" I said.

Noah put one hand on the wings of the blood statue, smiled lewdly at me, and then said, "That's true, but my life profession is magic potions, do you know why?"

I shook my head blankly.

Noah squinted his eyes and showed some obsessive gaze, and said to me, "Don't you really know that the number one beauty in the Royal Academy of Magic, Tutor Qige, teaches magic potions?"
