(Thank you to the white-clothed priest for subscribing to the main station, double return!) ）

After 8 days of busy work, the new cemetery city of Tarummere was finally established.

During this period, Li Xun also showed rare patience and perseverance, gritted his teeth and picked up all the homework he had left behind, and finally ushered in his first spell-casting specialty on the seventh day: spell mastery.

Spell mastery

Prerequisites: Mage Level 1

Effect: After a long period of practice, you gain a specialty in the spellcasting class, where you can choose a number of known spells equal to your intelligence adjustment value. After that, you don't need a spellbook to prepare these spells.

Normal: Without this specialty, you must use a spell book to prepare all your spells, except for reading magic.

With this spellcasting feat, which is acquired by any apprentice when they reach the rank of full-fledged mage, the owner of the feat, after a large number of skilled spell casts, can firmly engrave the basic structure of the spell model in their minds, and no longer need to rely on spell books to assist them in future casting.

Only by gaining proficiency in spells can you leave the heavy spell book, truly liberate the hands of the mage, and lay the foundation for the various spell super magic skills in the future.

Li Xun smiled bitterly.

What others can get when they become a first-level mage, they can barely get it at level 15, which makes people unhappy no matter what. But he didn't have time to stay here any longer, for someone close to him was coming to the city of Oneros.

……

In the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly in the city of Oneros, and the weather was unprecedentedly sunny.

With the return of the tower's owner and the arrival of many spellcasters, this Istil Arcane Tower has once again blossomed with its own vitality. Around the Arcane Tower, it has only been less than half a month, and a new magic market has already taken shape.

Therefore, when the teleportation array in the square lit up again, the mage's apprentice Kokar was already standing respectfully on the edge of the teleportation array.

A moment later, the spatial ripples caused by the teleportation gradually dissipated in the circle, and a young mage with a somewhat pale face appeared in the teleportation array.

"May I ask if you are Master Jack?" Kokar asked respectfully.

"I am. You are? ”

Jack took a few deep breaths, barely suppressed the feeling of dizziness, and looked up at the mage apprentice waiting here suspiciously.

"Hello, Venerable Master Jack. I am the mage's apprentice Kokar, and I have been ordered to await Your Excellency's arrival. Your teacher, Venerable Li Xun, will meet you inside the Master's Tower! Kokar replied with a smile on his face.

Jack leaned back slightly, looked up at this magical tower standing tall, and couldn't help but feel a stirring in his heart, and the somewhat calm and immature face that had just been trained showed an unconcealable look of excitement.

It has only been half a year since they were separated, and the teacher has already taken down a mage tower in the mage kingdom and has a place to settle down. If it weren't for the magical message that came back with the teacher's mage mark, Little Jack wouldn't have been able to believe it anyway.

Thinking of the surprise and ecstasy when he first received the magic message, the noisy scene when all the familiar mages came to congratulate, and the stunned and incredible look on the other party's face when he proposed to borrow the teleportation array of the Principality Mage Association in front of a high-ranking mage, even if he was standing at the door of the mage tower now, an illusion of illusion and reality still haunted him.

Like a marionette, he followed the mage apprentice into the mage tower, looking at the apprentice's robes coming and going, and listening to the respectful greetings of the other party, Jack woke up like a dream, and finally realized the reality of the scene in front of him.

The gentle and beautiful Princess Hylis met little Jack in the living room on the second floor. The two sides had met many times as early as the Duchy of Novis, and this time they were even more cordial. Hearing Little Jack's open-mouthed and closed-mouthed title of "Master", although Cialis cheeks were slightly drunk, she also accepted it calmly, and briefly introduced him to the basic situation of this mage tower (Arcane Tower).

Just as the two were talking cordially, Cialis raised her eyebrows sharply, and her face flushed with joy.

"Jack, your teacher is back!"

As soon as the words fell, the void rippled on the sides of the two of them, and a hazy human form changed from shallow to dark, finally revealing the appearance of a young mage.

"Teacher!" "You're back!"

The two cordial greetings made Li Xun, who hurried back in a hurry, feel warm in his heart. He gave a simple nod and pulled Jack into the couch and asked about what it would be like after the breakup.

Although the hellfire that followed Little Jack's side could also send back some information, it was a pity that Li Xun, who was busy all day, didn't have the time to browse them one by one, so he listened to Jack's explanation patiently and carefully.

Through the introduction of Little Jack, Li Xun learned that the current situation of the Duchy of Novis is not good, and it can be called difficult. With such a vicious neighbor as the Council of the Dead, there is no kingdom that is not worried.

Although it is blocked by the unclimbable Avili mountains, coupled with the strict defense of the duke, there is no news of the invasion of the undead, but it still brings great trouble to the principality.

The fact that the wave of refugees nearly spread the plague to the principality two years ago by the Council of the Dead is proof that these damned skeletons really have a vicious plan to swallow Novis into their bellies. Therefore, the principality mobilized with all its might, and only then did the steepness of the Thundering Fortress and the presence of the legendary mage block the path of the undead to the north.

Even at this moment, there was still a tide of nearly a million undead corpses under the walls of the Thundering Fortress facing the side of the United Council of the Dead. They have been blocked out of the pass for many years, like a vicious dog guarding the gate, guarding the north gate for the Council of the Dead.

If the Duchy of Novis hadn't cleared them out in advance, it wouldn't have even thought of entering the undead occupation zone for half a step.

As a result, the two sides were at a stalemate.

Jack, as a principality contract mage, was also stationed at the Thundering Fortress for a while. His only hobby of the day is standing on top of the towering walls of the Thundering Fortress with a group of low-ranking mages, throwing fireballs above the heads of the crowding crowds of corpses. This is a way to practice your spell proficiency and reduce the number of corpses outside the fortress bit by bit.

And every once in a while, some high-level undead such as vampires and ghost banshees will also slip into the Thundering Fortress. They often raid the outlying sentry posts to loot some live food for their own blood, so it is indeed a very dangerous thing to stand guard in such an environment.

Little Jack was "lucky" enough to experience several such attacks. However, fortunately, with the protection of Hellfire, not only did he not be damaged, but he made gains one after another, laying a solid foundation for him to be promoted to level 2.

In such a tug-of-war attack, the two sides maintained some tacit understanding, and neither had any intention of advancing the war to an irreversible state of war.

Li Xun listened carefully with squinted eyes, and at the same time, combined with the information he obtained through other channels, he silently studied and judged the movements of the Undead United Council. Although he has now left the Duchy of Novis, he still has a deep affection for him. Whether it is Casas, who has been traveling together for a while, or the rustic farmers in Redwood Village and Big Rock Village, they are some of the people he cares about relatively well.

Soon, Jack was led by Hillis to the magical abode he had arranged, it was a completely new environment, and he really needed to get used to it for a while.

Li Xun intends to let Little Jack come forward as his own disciple to coordinate the external affairs of the Arcane Tower and liberate Cialis from it. Since Cialis has been a genius magical girl since she was a child, she has something to be admired for her magic talent, and it is undoubtedly a huge waste to tie her up in the worldly things that she is ushering into.

Whether it is the Klein Continent or the cemetery system, it is a real world dominated by power, and only by mastering the unrivaled power of others can we ensure that our vested interests are not infringed upon.

Only when an orthodox mage has become a teacher with dedication and has performed a life-extending ritual can he have the time and energy to expand and manage his secular power. Until then, any mage who deviates from this path will be abandoned by time.

History has proved that many great alchemists, enchanters, and puppet masters who have been short-lived in the annals of history often neglect meditation, ignore the accumulation of mana, ignore the collection and study of knowledge because of their personal research preferences, and do not rise to level 16 before their lifespans are exhausted, and finally fall in the race against time.

So out of love for Cilis, Li Xun did not intend to make her the spokesperson of the cemetery in human society, but continued to live the ideal mage life in her mind. Even many times, Li Xun wanted to find an opportunity to pull her into the cemetery system, and he was able to quickly climb the level by plundering soul energy.

However, the restraint and control in the magic blood contract made Li Xun worried. For his lover, he doesn't want to add the slightest external constraint, but let the two always maintain this state of mutual attraction. However, it is always difficult to obtain the deep recognition of those cemetery heroes by not completely incorporating her into the cemetery soul system, but relying solely on the soul authority given by herself to intervene in the management of the cemetery.

If this gap is not resolved sooner, it may cause considerable inconvenience later.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Li Xun decided that after a period of cultivation, both Cialis and Little Jack would find an opportunity to be included in the soul system of the cemetery. Although as a foreign hero, Li Xun can control their life and death through the magic blood contract, but as a family and friend, he also secretly swore in his heart that he would never use magic power to restrain them from making their own choices.

So that night, Li Xun took Xilis, who readily agreed, to the Dark City to complete the ignition of foreign heroes. It's a pity that foreign heroes like Zena and Hillis are individuals with tenacious and complete souls, and they can't instill any new soul templates into them, otherwise the two souls will inevitably clash and fight each other because of their independent consciousness.

As for Little Jack, he also drank the soul guidance without any doubt in the young mage's flickering. In his opinion, this is just a new spell by his teacher. The last time the spell was real, it turned him from a mage apprentice who never had the possibility of advancement to a full-fledged mage, so this time, there must be more benefits waiting for him to taste.

During the whole process, Little Jack did not have the slightest resistance and doubt, and always maintained an excited mood. This also fully shows his unreserved trust in the young mage!

For such a simple feeling, Li Xun also regards it as a treasure.
