White snowflakes descend from the sky, giving the mountains a sparkling coat. Crowds gather here for a grand ceremony.

The visitors were all dressed in white robes, with solemn and solemn faces, and even when they were talking, they often did not smile.

In the center of the crowd, there stood a blue and wide cryolite platform, the surface of the stone platform was covered with a layer of pure white silk, there were some raised marks below, and the edges were clustered with colorful flowers.

The cold temperature freezes the delicate flowers hard, and the condensation of moisture makes the flowers lose their former vitality.

In front of the stone platform were fine wine in precious vessels, and a whole lamb that had been slaughtered and cooked, and whose skin was so golden that it was constantly steaming, unaffected by the cold temperature.

Among these people, the leader was several elderly white-robed humans, who stood near the stone platform, although they had not spoken, their existence seemed to have become the focus of attention of others.

"My child......" one of the human females whispered, her skin dark and her face wrinkled, "don't be afraid, the darkness is only temporary. With glory and praise, you will return to me. ”

She gently placed her hand on the stone platform, and there was infinite tolerance in her eyes.

"The time has come, the representatives belonging to the academy have arrived, and we can start the next step." Behind her, an old man in a white suit said slowly.

Seeing this, a man who looked obviously younger hurriedly stepped forward, and after coughing lightly, his voice immediately resounded throughout the field:

"Thank you for coming, whether it is a mage belonging to the Magic Academy or a magic guild, you are willing to come here, you have already explained your attitude, as a mage, you should have such a spirit."

"In the joint witness of the Great Sage Cedros, the Academy's representative Eric, and the leader Esquire, the Orthodox Magical Guild will unite with the Wizardry Academy to fight against the heretics who have turned their backs on the mage gods."

"At the same time, the leader Esquil will show us the forbidden fifth-order magic, and I believe you will all gain something from it. This is a moment that will go down in history and we will witness miracles happening together. ”

With his words, the man attracted the attention of the others, and they all looked at an old man with gray hair in front of the stone platform.

The old man in front of the stone platform turned around and stared at the man who spoke, and the man suddenly realized that he had just said the wrong thing.

"Dissatisfaction is the root of the mage's exploration of spells. Have you ever wondered why we can't summon thunderbolts? Why can't we walk on water? Why do we die? ”

"With the power of magic, we can fill the grievances in our hearts and change all of this completely. We can call the wind and rain, we can soar in the sky, we can bring the dead back to life. How can everything be summed up in a miracle? ”

"There are never miracles." The old man rebuked angrily, "Some are just the mage's continuous exploration and hard study. ”

Seeing that the old man was angry, the human man hurriedly leaned over and said, "Leader Esquire, I recognize my mistake, and I am deeply sorry for it. ”

Accepting the man's apology, the old man turned around and looked at the cryolite platform in front of him.

"Not long ago, we suffered a great loss, a young legendary hero, died in his journey, and I'm sure you've heard about it."

"How sad it is that the hero, who was supposed to shine like a star and lead the whole of Bracada forward, died in such obscurity. Thankfully, I wouldn't allow that to happen. ”

As he spoke, a strong light bloomed from the old man's fingertips, and the rich magical element moved.

The earth trembled, the snow scattered in the mountains, and the surrounding crowd struggled to stabilize their figures, and the stone platform in front of the old man surged from the inside with a brilliant blue light, and even the sky was eclipsed.

An unknown change is taking place with the spell cast by the old man.

Around the stone platform, the flowers that were originally frozen shook off the frost on their bodies at this moment, and bloomed one after another, and majestic vitality emerged, looking delicate.

The other people in the field all looked at the stone platform intently, even if their eyes were pierced by the light, and tears fell from it, they did not want to take their eyes off for even a moment, they wanted to take this scene that was enough to be recorded in history, and completely saw it in their eyes.

After a long time, the mana fluctuations gradually subsided, and the various abnormalities that had been caused by them also returned to calm at this time.

"Ahem......" A coughing sound suddenly came from the stone platform, and the silk covered on it was also lifted by a hand, revealing the black figure below.

Looking at the human beings who lifted the silk, several people around the stone platform showed relieved looks, and the surrounding mages looked respectful, with a little disbelief in their eyes.

Feeling the temperature around him, the human on the stone platform shivered, and he subconsciously touched his neck, and then he was shrouded in spells, and his body became warm.

Looking around, his gaze finally stopped on a dark-skinned woman.

"Mother......" he murmured, and before he could say anything, his words were interrupted by the old man.

"You must be hungry. I've seen many people who have woken up from the darkness, and what they all have in common is that they are hungry, and this is for you. ”

As he spoke, the old man handed the roast lamb prepared in front of the stone platform and the wine to the man in front of him.

"Thank you." As the old man said, the man in front of him was indeed hungry, so he took the food handed by the old man and sat on the stone platform to eat.

"My child, tell me what you met? The wounds on your body don't look like they were left by a dragon. The dark-skinned woman asked slowly.

"It's nothing ......" swallowed the piece of meat in his mouth, the man wiped his mouth with the silk beside him, and said in a deep voice: "I met a necromancer, his ability is very special, he may or may not die in battle." I have a hunch that we'll meet again. ”

"Do you know his name?"

"I know, his name is Rod." The man looked at his mother and said.

Beside the man, the old man in the white suit looked stunned, as if he remembered something, and not far from the stone platform, the other person who heard them speak was the same.

"Els, what's wrong with you?" There was something strange about the companion next to this person.

"Nothing." The man known as Els replied simply, with a hint of disbelief still lingering in his eyes.
