Chapter 67: The Magic Library
On the silent vine path, a middle-aged man and a little boy walked quickly.
"Senior Brother Ante, why is the place where the magical talent is tested in the magic library?" The little boy asked the middle-aged man next to him with some curiosity, but the little boy's face still looked a little embarrassed when he shouted the word senior brother.
Right! These two people are Ante and Nebula, and early the next morning, Ante led Nebula to test his magical talents, which was the agreement between the two before.
Although Ante had promised to personally lead Nebula to the place where his magical talent was tested, it was only for the sake of Hock's face and Nebula's three auction items for himself, otherwise how could a ten-year-old kid let Master Ante, who was known as a genius alchemist, lead the way?
However, when Nebula explained the three items and then analyzed the production methods of these three items, Ante was amazed by Nebula. Ante couldn't imagine that the person with such extensive and rigorous alchemy knowledge was just a ten-year-old child!!
At the time, Ante even wondered if Hock had invented a rejuvenating magic prop or magic potion to make himself happy after using it.
But later, when Ante contacted Hoke through the communication crystal ball, Ante's speculation was immediately eliminated. From then on, Ante sincerely accepted the identity of Xingyun as a junior brother.
And Ante also demanded that Nebula must call himself senior brother whenever and wherever he was, which made Nebula a little unacceptable, after all, at Ante's age, it was no problem for Nebula to be called uncle. Calling such an elder a senior brother, Nebula is a little unnatural no matter what you say.
However, Nebula is not the kind of old-fashioned person who does not know how to be flexible, Nebula only promised Ante to call him like this when no one was around, and Ante had no objections, after all, he only needed Nebula's admission, and the others had nothing to do with Teacher He Ke, so what was the use of their admission?
Hearing Nebula call himself senior brother, Antle was so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth. So Ante tried his best to talk and communicate with Nebula, if nothing else, just to hear the word senior brother.
Nebula wasn't so reluctant at first, Anteke was an alchemy master, and he was the kind with solid basic skills, if you could ask him for some alchemy knowledge and tips, maybe you could make your alchemy on paper more stable.
Just looking at Ante's absent-minded appearance, Nebula knew that it was a vain question to ask at this time, so Nebula just asked a few questions about what he wanted to know about this test of magical talent.
Ante, who was walking briskly, gradually slowed down after hearing Nebula's question, and after stroking his chin and thinking for a while, he said to Nebula, "Do you know why the magical jungle that was originally the territory of the goblins is inhabited by humans? ”
Xingyun shook his head happily, and rolled his eyes in his heart, isn't this nonsense?
If I knew these things, what would I ask you to do? And what does this have to do with the Magic Library?
Ante sighed and began to tell Nebula an ancient and long story:
Three hundred years ago, the Dark Mage Legion attacked the Magic Jungle, and although the goblins in the Magic Forest were strong, the number of goblins was too scarce to withstand the attack of the Black Mage Legion.
Just as the Enchanted Forest was about to perish, Hans, the strongest of the human mages, led a coalition of human mages to repel the Dark Mage legion. Although the alliance of human mages repelled the Dark Mage legion, nearly half of its manpower was lost.
In order to prevent the Dark Mage Legion from attacking again, and to recuperate, the remaining human mages followed Hans to temporarily reside in this magical forest. In the days that followed, the human mages and elves fought together against the Dark Mage Legion, and the two sides developed a deep bond and friendship.
After the Dark Mage is sealed and most of the Dark Mage legion is wiped out. Faced with the few remaining human mages in the alliance, some goblins close to humans proposed that human mages could live in the magical forest.
The human magician was naturally very grateful, and even the magician who had lost everything in the war immediately wept bitterly. However, some people agree and some people oppose it, and some goblins think that non-our race must have different hearts, and before fighting with the black mage,
Humans have always been the enemies of goblins, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are natural enemies. I can't see anything now, but as time goes by, humanity will surely return to its original state. As the saying goes, the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change, which is such a truth.
Regardless, the elves have a decision to make. The pro-human elves can only operate in the first to third districts, and the fourth and fifth districts belong to the territory of the independent faction of Eline.
It is said that two of the three major magic families were founded by magicians who survived the battle with the Dark Mage Legion at that time.
The Elinée Independents were so incompatible with the Magical Jungle that they didn't get along until the death of the old director of the Magical Library in Ward 4 a hundred years ago.
The Magic Library can be said to be the foundation of the Magic Jungle, where thousands of years of magic books are stored. The director of the Magic Library can only be held by the highly respected members of the goblin clan, so after the death of the director, both the independent and pro-human factions are worried about the position of the librarian.
Because at that time, there was no elf elder who could convince the whole elf clan. As for the human race? It's good enough to be able to accept them, but what kind of official position do you want to be in the magical jungle?
Joke!!
However, when Hansma, a human, offered to be the director of the Magic Library, all the goblins fell silent. They can distrust humans, they can also hate humans, but they can't refuse this great magician who has dedicated his life to the magic jungle.
So Hans passed the election of the elves and became the first alien elder of the elves in history.
Hans mobilized all the available manpower and material resources to build an even larger and grander magical library in just three months.
At the same time, it was also agreed with the elves that the magic library would be a place for the elves and humans to test their magical talents, and Hans's only request was that the Eline Academy of Magic and Magic would also be open to the human side.
There had been a violent conflict between the Independents over this, but in the end they compromised with Hans's demands, for Hans's last words to the Independents were: 'Magic is a blessed ability, and not all humans can become magicians, and not all goblins can become magicians. For the sake of the future research and development of magic, and for the future of magic, please let human beings also contribute their modest efforts in magic. Of course, if a human dares to make trouble at the Elene Academy of Magic, I will do it myself. ’
Although the independents of Elene compromised, they also had their demands. Magical talents are not accepted if they are not geniuses, and those over twenty years old are not accepted.
This is how the name of the No. 1 Magic Academy in the Adventure World came about, even other magic schools established by the Magic Guild can copy Elene's acceptance requirements, but whether it is teachers or resources, other magic academies can't keep up with Elene's School of Magic.
After all, the Enchanted Forest is the origin of magic in the adventure world, and there is no place in the world where there is more magical knowledge than the Enchanted Forest, and the Enchanted Forest is even called the Holy Land and Paradise of Magicians by most magicians.
After listening to these stories, Nebula's reverence for the Magical Jungle increased a little more. Nebula also has a strong interest in the old magician Hans, and the person who can make the entire elf clan compromise is by no means an ordinary person.
At this time, Nebula and Ante walked to the door of the magic library, and because Ante's story was told in such detail and beautiful, Nebula didn't even care much about the vines he walked on at a height of thousands of meters. If Nebula almost felt it, his legs would definitely tremble and he would be sweating profusely, and Nebula already had an inexplicable fear of the sky due to Ante's prank last time. Ante must have seen it too, and presumably part of his purpose in telling the story so vividly was to attract Nebula's attention!
Seeing the three-man tall wooden gate, Nebula felt very small, and his awe of Hans, the great magician, was even greater.
The gates have long since opened, and the humans and goblins inside are bustling with each other, as if they were a lively free market.
Ante led Nebula step by step towards the Magic Library, and everyone who saw Ante nodded in greeting, and at the same time had a lot of questions about the Nebula beside Ante.
When someone spread the news of Ante's pick-up of the ship, everyone had more questions about the nebula beside Ante.
But doubts are doubts, but this time everyone's purpose is to let their juniors enter the Alene Magic Academy.
Compared to the human side, which is worried, the goblins are not so sad, many goblins are chatting happily, and even a few goblin children are playing and chasing in mid-air.
Because the reproductive ability of the goblin clan is too poor, this time there are only more than a hundred children of all the goblin clan, which is more than double that of nearly five hundred human children.
Moreover, these five hundred human children had already been sent here after being screened by the family forces, and if it weren't for the extremely high magical talent, the family forces would not have given him such a great opportunity.
But a few of those hundred goblin kids might not even have a talent for magic! But as long as they have the ability to meditate, the children of the elf clan can enter the Elinne School of Magic without any doubt.
This is the so-called home advantage, the academy is opened by the goblin clan, is there any reason not to let your own people in?
Humans don't dare to complain about this at all, although the number of goblins is small, almost everyone has magical talents, and a large part of them are geniuses in human mouths.
Goblins without magical talent may only have one or two out of a hundred!
Just as everyone was noisy, chattering, and gossiping, a slight cough sounded.
Although the cough was not loud, it was like thunder for everyone. Almost instantly, all humans and goblins stopped talking.
They all looked at an old man slowly floating in the middle of the Magic Library.
The white-bearded old man in a white/magic robe and a pure white magic hat spoke to the children in his hoarse and slightly deep voice, "Come here if you want to be a magician."
