Chapter Twenty-Eight: Metamorphosis
"Is there anything wrong?"
Everyone present focused on Raphael, and the scene in the early hours of the morning was still vivid. No one dared to underestimate this young-looking magician. Strength and identity deserve the attention of everyone present. They all sighed in their hearts that the eyes of the Shuangyue family were vicious, and they were able to ally such a person when they were unknown.
Being able to ally with someone who even the King of the Stars recognizes has a sense of honor in the hearts of all astrological witches, as if they are seeing their beloved star up close.
Tiffany brought a cushion for Raphael, and the little girl sat at the bottom because she only had the right to be a spectator. And Raphael, as a guest, according to etiquette, needs to be received. Raphael nodded in thanks before speaking.
"Well, if the Snow Beast's attack today is more violent, I think it will be more normal and reliable. But the attack was still the same as before, revealing a hint of weirdness in it. There's no reason why our detection last night shouldn't be searched for by the vine, so to speak, we already know the hidden strength of the other party. But the other party is still attacking us so unhurriedly, and I always feel that something is wrong. ”
If the other side has any strategic intentions, it has been exposed to Raphael's eyes last night. And the other party is also very clear about this, but why didn't he take any countermeasures?
It's still such a non-penetrating way of attacking. Think about it from another perspective, if the commander of this army is Raphael, then he will definitely immediately mobilize heavy troops to run the other side. After all, the other party has such ability, and there is really no reason to continue this kind of battle that is not even a joke.
Even if it's clumsy, it's too much.
Could it be that I have overlooked something? Is there anything you haven't taken into account?
"And today's snow beast's attack doesn't seem to be as strong as before, usually at this point in time, the opponent should have launched a fourth wave of offensive. Today is just the second wave. Hearing Raphael say this, Fanny, who was sitting next to Angelia Jolie Twinyue, also spoke. As soon as these words came out, everyone finally let everyone find the reason why their hearts were empty, and it turned out to be because of this.
Yes, the attack of the snow beast is like a wave on weekdays, but this morning there is a feeling of weakness. It doesn't seem to be as positive as it used to be. One by one, something is wrong, making people wonder if this is a new conspiracy brewed by the snow beasts.
"Is there any information related to Lady Muriel Helen Pisces?" Raphael felt that the current side entry point should be placed on this matter, and if the relevant records could be queried, maybe the clues could be detected. Only by grasping each other's feet can they come up with a better solution. It's a little too stupid to run around like a headless fly right now.
"It should be soon, Debra has already ridden her star beast, and if there is any information, she will use astrology to contact us." Angelia Jolie Twinyue heard this and said it aloud. Such changes in the snow beasts also made her in power, a little vigilant.
"There should be good news." What he had seen last night had made him a little unconfident in the astrology witch's stubbornness, but he didn't show it, but accepted it with an optimistic attitude. After all, no matter how bad the situation is, it can't be worse than what you see and hear.
"I hope so."
The tension that had been diluted by Tiffany's performance was now re-engulfing the command post, and everyone had a sense of oppression. It seemed that something was pushing forward behind him, and it was as if there was a sharp sword above his head ready to cut down at any time.
……
The Snow Beasts' attacks stopped in the third wave, and Angelia Julie Twinmoon didn't get a chance to make a move. These snow beasts seem to be scared, and plan to directly use small and medium-sized snow beasts to consume the power of astrological witches. However, following Raphael's advice, the traps constructed by astrology made these snow beasts not take advantage of them in the slightest.
Moreover, the magic used by Raphael before also caused a lot of trouble for these snow beasts, making it impossible for them to directly complete a beautiful charge. The blocked terrain and the traps that followed made the snow beasts' offensive diminished again and again. Moreover, the post-war incineration operations extinguished the snow beasts' plans to multiply.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that these giant snow beasts also have a little scruples, and they are not as dead as before.
"Lord Raphael, Lady Debra Helen Pisces has arrived. Ladies and gentlemen, please come to the Council Chamber. A herald knocked softly on Raphael's door and whispered. Van Persie and others stood outside the door, seemingly acquiescing to his actions.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Raphael slowly withdrew his spiritual power from the magic net, and during this time of connection with the magic net, Raphael clearly felt the sense of repulsion coming from it. It seems that Mystra is really fast, and it is estimated that there is not much time left to gain knowledge through this.
Not enough, Raphael was also content, and he discovered a lot of precious magical knowledge, which is older than the Dickie Arcane Empire, including all the knowledge inheritance of the ancient mages that Raphael has always had in mind.
Just now Raphael was finally allowed to directly complete the relevant knowledge of ancient mage terms, which suddenly changed Raphael's mage profession. Directly transformed into a new professional 'creator'. According to the conceptual knowledge of the system that he has been exposed to, the introduction of magic is not the current mastery of magic or the integration of itself, but the ancient mages are different.
'At the beginning of magic, the essence of magic was the art of memory. Some believe that this is its most powerful form. It doesn't require any technology, no wands, or other spellcasting mediums, just a mage's heart.
All of the pictograms in the rituals were merely a memorization aid, intended to allow the caster to recall the vast amount of detail and steps involved in casting the spell.
In those days, the greatest mages were those with the highest talent for memory, but magic invocation was so difficult that all mages had to specialize. Even the hardest mage, who dedicates his life to magic, can only master three or four spells at most.
Ordinary mages are content to master two, but for those in the 'country', mastering only one spell is a thankful thing. Even so, on the rare occasions when magic was really necessary, he had to resort to the Grimoire to overcome his forgetfulness.
- Wisdom Magic Book: Creation Chapter'
This was the beginning of magic, and it seems that magicians in ancient times were indeed not as convenient as they are now. But the difficulty stems from the strength of the origin and the magic itself. It was a spell that combined with the origin of the world, and the power it could cause was no less than that of the 'Super S-level forbidden spell' that was now defined.
Creator, a title that only the most gifted magicians of the era could earn. One life is two, two is three, and three is everything. Everything is made out of nothing, and all magic can be done at your fingertips. This wiped out all of Raphael's factions and contained everything in them.
There are good and bad things, the good thing is that Raphael won't have the consequences of being insane with multiple magic studies, and the bad thing is that the upgrade progress bar of this class can be described as terrifying, and Raphael has never seen such a blood-vomiting upgrade condition. Only by obtaining the power of the origin can he improve his strength, and erase Raphael's sixth-order strength, which is directly described as a magician.
However, the overall strength has not declined, which also makes Rafael breathe a sigh of relief. If he had to start all over again from the sixth order because of this profession, the harsh upgrade conditions would definitely make Raphael regret exploring the magic web.
Without any movement from Raphael, the star cloak on the hanger automatically draped over Raphael's body and was then tied. The cloak floated lightly in the air, and it was windless and automatic, giving Raphael a dusty look.
"Raphael." When the herald saw the door being pushed open, he immediately lowered his head, not even daring to look directly into Raphael's eyes, which were like a whirlpool that would swallow up those who stared at it.
"Lead the way, don't keep everyone waiting."
"Yes, sir. Please follow me. ”
Hearing these fluttering words, the herald was relieved and hurriedly walked forward.
……
"Huh?" The moment Raphael stepped into the council chamber, all the astrological witches present clearly sensed an unusual aura from Raphael's body, which felt like a dormant beast. And this is obviously a radical change from Raphael's previous breath.
It was an extremely oppressive aura, and even a casual leak made the astrological witches present feel a lot of pressure. They all gathered their hearts and did not let this breath affect them.
"It's only been half a day since I saw him, and Mr. Raphael has changed so dramatically. The last time I talked about it, it looked like I was really putting gold on my face. Angelia Jolie Twinyue couldn't help but sigh that this young man was always able to frighten people.
If it weren't for the aura of the star cloak that Raphael was wearing without any anomalies, she would have thought that the person in front of her was changed by the mastermind behind the scenes.
"A little bit of luck and a little bit of accumulation." Raphael didn't want to talk too carefully about this, otherwise he would really be a fool of himself.
None of the people present was a human spirit, and when they heard this, they all understood that this was not a matter that could be asked more.
"That's pretty enviable luck." Angelia Jolie Twinyue chuckled as she walked through the episode, and then saw her hand flip and a silvery white curtain of light appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Among them was none other than the old astrological witch.
"Debra, did you find any meaningful information?" Angelia Jolie Shuangyue asked aloud, not even noticing the hint of nervousness and urgency in her tone, which was a little different from her usual calm image. It's just that everyone present is like this, so it doesn't feel weird.
"Yes, sir. I found the astrological witches who were close to my unfilial daughter, and got some useful information from them. During that time, Mu Li'er was looking through an ancient book called 'Phantom Magic Well', fortunately, this thing was brought out by one of them, and I have asked 'Thunder Shadow Bird' to bring this book, and I will continue to stay here to see if there is any useful information. ”
The astrological witch seemed a little excited, and it would undoubtedly be helpful for them to have this information. In fact, she didn't have much hope at first, but she didn't expect that there was already an arrangement in the dark. Perhaps her daughter had already thought about the current situation, "Don't worry, Mu Li'er. Mother will definitely try to make amends for the mistakes you have made. ”
As if in response to Debra's thoughts, a Thunder Shadow Bird rushed in through the gate, a small bird with a blue color all over its body, hence the name because of the thunder sound and its extreme speed when flying. The Thunder Shadow Bird landed in front of Angelia Jolie Twinmoon's desk, then turned her back and revealed the backpack behind her.
Angelia Julie Bimoon opened her backpack and took out a heavy book, which was already a little torn, and the spine of the book looked like it had been gnawed by a mouse, and the pages could be seen. The pages were yellowed, and there was a sound of branches breaking when they were turned, which made people worry if the book would fall apart if they were turned hard.
"We've got it, we'll get back in touch if there's any information."
"Yes, sir."
The light curtain was removed, and everyone gathered around. Everyone wondered if the book would give them hope.
"Phantom Well, it's not a good place to hear from this name." Raphael couldn't help but slander in his heart, this kind of ancient book with 'demons' and 'dragons' is usually not a blessed land. Magicians and dragons, mysterious and powerful.
Earlier, the name of the magician was not good, and it was also a rat poop that spoiled a pot of porridge. Some evil mages need to study materials, and for a period of time, they wantonly mutilate those ordinary humans, and as a result, those who don't know the truth have the idea that the world is as black as a crow.
The book flipped gently in Angelia Jolie Shuangyue's hands, and she looked very careful, looking afraid that something would go wrong with the old antique at this critical time.
