Arcane Age

Xi Wei finally understood why the "Sixth Law" was not famous enough in the magic world. His records were deliberately destroyed and hidden from the magic world to the secular world. The Tower of Thousand Laws regarded this as a taboo.

It can be said that a legendary magician has 10,000 ways to escape from the crisis. Even if he cannot defeat the abyss army of the seven demon kings, the demon kings obviously cannot keep Velist.

However, due to his deep entanglement with the Holy Norman Empire and the Queen, he chose to fight to the death and eventually fell into the void.

Perhaps it was because he saw the shadow of his former disciple Verester in his body that Anthony opened his mouth to tell this legendary story that had long been buried and gave himself a piece of advice.

From here we can also see the attitude of Anthony and most of the magicians he represents. War, glory, and faith are not very important to me. All I need to do is study and research to improve my magician level. .

This represents a "transcendental" philosophy, which is completely opposite to those court magicians who seek refuge with the royal family and nobles.

Of course, this is also an important reason why the Tower of Thousand Dharmas can stand for thousands of years, but this is something Xi Wei cannot do.

Can arcana be used purely as an academic discipline to change the world through gradual innovation?

Of course it is possible. If the original contract continues to exist and peace and development are the mainstream of the world, then Xi Wei does not need to be as urgent as now. He can calmly move forward on the path of a magician and increase his knowledge and abilities. One day, if you create your own magic school and be directly promoted to a legendary magician, countless people will definitely flock to you, and a huge magic school will be able to grow from scratch in a short period of time.

However, there is never everlasting peace in the world. Even humans in the 35th century AD had dozens of giant wars that spread throughout the world after leaving their home planet, the Earth. The world of Orrente is not a paradise of natural harmony with birds singing and fragrance of flowers. Rather, it is such a vast and complex complete world, even a multiverse.

When the original contract, the thousand-year contract signed by Lady Silver Moon and the Lord of Glory, finally came to an end, it was like lighting the fuse of war. Even people who are not so keen, as long as they stand on a certain position, can already Insight into the strange undercurrents hidden beneath the calm water.

The war is inevitable and will continue to escalate. From ordinary people to professionals, to masters, to legends, to sacred demigods, and then to real gods, everyone will be involved in it. This will be a battle for the entire European continent. The unprecedented crisis far exceeds the scale and danger of the two empires of elves and orcs competing for hegemony.

But the crisis also brings opportunities. The shackles on the powerful demigods for thousands of years are finally released. The temptation to ignite the divine fire among the stars and achieve immortality is almost impossible for anyone to resist. The pattern of the world will inevitably change. There will be a sea change.

Since Xi Wei came to the Orient world at this critical time and wanted to truly control his own destiny, he must not miss this opportunity. Even if he could protect Violet's peace in the upcoming war, when the dust of the war fell to the ground, After the victor ascends to the stars, the existence of the new gods will surely block the possibility of the successor to ascend to the throne.

Therefore, it is impossible for Xi Wei to follow the advice of "Erudition" Anthony and become a magician who focuses on personal strength growth and academic research. He is the leader of Violet, the leader of the arcane age, and is trying to create a new world in the near future. The person who has achieved the great cause of "unification of all dharma" and finally reached the pinnacle of the entire world!

No matter how knowledgeable someone is, it is impossible to know the fire of ambition burning in Xi Wei's chest. "Erudition" Anthony gave his advice and suggestions and then left quietly, but Xi Wei became even more determined. own ideas.

Even with the "Sixth Method" Wil East, a talented person who takes thousands of years to emerge, a strong man with the title of legend cannot avoid the fate of falling. In the coming dark craze, Xi Wei will never try to Fighting alone, the development of arcane magic requires civilization and order, so he must stand on the side of light and order, unite all the forces he can, and jointly deal with the enemies in the shadows.

Unlike the Tower of Thousand Magics and the Royal Academy of Magic in France, where legendary magicians are located, lesser magical centers such as the University of Copenhagen, the Northland Witches Council, and the United Academy of Magic in Venice are exactly what Xi Wei wants to do next. To fight for the power, "Arcane" will play a leading and bonding role, turning the elites among magicians into supporters of arcane concepts and seeds of arcane practitioners, so that arcane concepts can spread quickly.

Every magician can be said to be an elite among people. It is impossible to completely integrate the ideas of all magicians and turn them into an orderly army.

In the Arcane Corps planned by Xi Wei, magicians and spells are strategic weapons. The trump card of the Arcane Corps will be the magical war weapons produced by the magic industrial civilization. They will use iron and fire to defeat the enemy and establish order in the Oriente world. .

Xi Wei has enough ambition, but he also has enough patience. The future is chaotic. Countless chess players have made moves on the huge chessboard of Oriente, and the final winner is still hidden in the fog.

What Xi Wei wants to imitate is the founding emperor of the past world, who "accumulated grain widely, built walls high, and became king slowly." But the new arcane concept and the Violet Island are likely to become the focus of attention of the enemies in the shadows. Regarding this, Xi Wei also has an idea, which is the Dark Parliament that will be held in fifty days.

Led by the "Third Law" Immortal King Bardes, a large gathering of dark forces was held in the Dead City plane of the Boneyard. This must be a pre-war mobilization, alliance and distribution of war zones. "White Crow" Schiller also received the invitation, and Xi Wei's other identity, Dawei, the master of eight-ring psychic magic, is an identity worth using.

In the Dark Parliament, Xi Wei must find a way to attend, even if he is just an observer. This will be a rare opportunity for him to observe possible future enemies at close range. In this way, Xi Wei has to deal with another problem, that is, how to Face the "white crows" Schiller.

Schiller is different from other legendary spellcasters. He is the master of the spiritual school. He has developed spiritual magic to the current level. He also established the huge city of White Crow City in the dream plane of the mind and enslaved the mind hunter race into the spiritual realm. Mages work.

What he has done is very close to what is needed to be called a legendary magician. Among all the legendary spellcasters, he is also the one closest to the door Didela mentioned. I am afraid that only "Erudition" Anthony is the one who is closest to it. Can be compared with him.

Xi Wei's method of transforming into David is not very clever. He may be able to hide it from others, but in front of Schiller, the leader of the spiritual school, it is almost impossible to deceive him.

Xi Wei put this worry aside for the time being. Since he had made a good start, the most important thing now was to strike while the iron was hot and get the follow-up things done well.

The work of soliciting manuscripts for the second issue of "Arcane" has already begun. This time, not only the Tower of Thousand Magics and the Royal Academy of Magic of France, but also the University of Copenhagen have submitted a large number of manuscripts. Dean Cesare also expressed on behalf of the United Magic Academy of Venice A group of outstanding papers will be selected and organized to be submitted to "Arcana".

To be honest, the spells of the Northland Witch Council are not that "arcane", but after discussion, the two leaders, Green and Red, decided not to miss this opportunity.

In addition, those magicians who came from all over the Oriente world delivered more than 270 magic papers to the Morning Star Tower where the Arcanist headquarters is located in just one day. The papers are the results of their research over several years and more than ten years. It can be said that these people come with a hope that their research can be recognized by "Arcana" and truly become famous in the entire world.

The quality of these papers varies, and most of them are absurd or have almost no value. The author himself is limited by his knowledge and his own strength, and has gone astray. He is stuck in it and cannot extricate himself. Although he has devoted A lot of time and energy was spent, but the research results were only a pile of waste.

However, gold is always hidden in the gravel, and the real treasures can only be seen after the big waves wash away the sand. Xi Wei used his free time to read about fifty submissions, and found two innovative papers and a very valuable one. A paper worthy of being published in "Arcana".

"Arcane" is issued once a month, and can accommodate up to about twenty papers. Xi Wei does not plan to continue to thicken "Arcane" or change it to a semi-monthly or even weekly magazine. "Arcane" will be the foundation for the entire arcane civilization in the future. It is the highest-level professional journal, and any paper published in it is an honor for the author.

Therefore, the subdivision of the second and third categories and the issuance of subsidiary publications are very necessary. Xi Wei's first plan is to print and publish the "Journal of Violet" throughout the magical world of Orrente.

"Journal of Violet" is Violet Academy's own magic research journal. It publishes excellent papers by professors, lecturers and students, covering the fields from magic apprentices to high-level magicians. It is the most relevant to the majority of magicians. A magic journal more suitable for ordinary magicians to read.

The issuance of the remaining second-category journals still needs to be discussed with the heads of the five major magic centers, but under Xi Wei's leadership, another heavyweight magic journal is destined to be released soon along with the second issue of "Arcana".

The name of this journal is also very concise, called - "Magic".

Unlike "Arcane" which only publishes various theories and arguments, the journal "Magic" publishes a variety of novel and practical spells. Each spell has its own ideas, how to build a spell model, and how to prepare spell-casting materials. The key points of spell casting are fully described. It can be said that as long as the magician level and specialization requirements are met, reading the paper is enough for most magicians to learn this new spell.

The relationship between "Arcana" and "Magic" is like the relationship between Buddhism and Shaolin's seventy-two stunts. "Arcana" is the true foundation of civilization, with high standards and low standards. "Magic" is a real killer weapon, an existence that countless magicians dream of.

Therefore, "Magic" cannot be widely published in a short period of time, which is tantamount to revealing its secrets to outsiders. The new "Magic" journal will be published in limited quantities among arcanists in the five major magic centers, aiming to expand the spell list of arcanists and enhance the appeal of the arcanist profession.

The "Magic" journal was actually born out of "Sylvie's Spell List". Xiwei, Zero and Christine will spend a lot of their energy on improving and innovating "Sylvie's Spell List".

Different from the previous functional improvements, this time we need to achieve a key breakthrough and greatly improve the mental power interaction and transmission efficiency of "Xiwei's Spell List" in order to expand "Xiwei's Spell List" as a Server and library for the journal Magic.

Since people are always selfish, as a result of the discussion, Xi Wei will reveal half of the spells in the first issue of "Magic", which is a full ten spells, ranging from the third ring to the seventh ring. The Tower of Thousand Spells provides five, the French Royal Academy of Magic provides three, and the other three provide one each, which is exactly twenty-one spells, which is the same as the number of papers in the first issue of "Arcane".

The "Magic" journal will also award arcane points, but the weight will be slightly lower than that of "Arcane", but it will also rank second highest among all magic journals in the future.

"Journal of Violet" will also be included in the arcane system. Publishing papers in "Journal of Violet" will earn arcane points. Of course, the weight is very low, especially since students may need many papers to get ten arcane points. , becoming a one-star arcanist.

Xi Wei has absolutely no secrets about the promotion of "Arcana" and "Magic", and he has no need to hide his secrets. In a sense, this also means that he will naturally occupy the absolute leader in the future Arcane Empire. For status, no one can compete with him.

Therefore, Xi Wei will continue to publish a large number of papers and spells in the two heavyweight journals "Arcana" and "Magic" until he far leaves everyone's arcane points behind.

Although Xi Wei is not a once-in-a-millennium genius like the "Sixth Method" Wilester, his research on the mysteries of ether has become more and more in-depth, and he is getting closer and closer to the core field.

This means that it is not that far away for Xi Wei to obtain the title of legendary magician of the Elemental School, although he is still only a magic master on the surface.

Of course, Xi Wei has not been able to sense the existence of "that door" Didela mentioned from the soul level, let alone actually cross that door. His current theoretical research is beyond the level of his own soul, and he cannot be considered a true legendary caster. There is still a long way to go before he is equal to the title of legendary magician in the sanctuary.
