Shaman from Afar

The cold walls, the air filled with the decay of parchment and sawdust, the dark wooden shelves are full of books, and the apprentices in dark robes quietly stopped in front of the bookcases, except for the pages of the book. In addition, there is only a slight breath sound floating in the ear.

Is silent and orderly, just like a church. This is what Loren gave from the bottom of his heart.

There are constantly apprentices passing by him, and even the afterglow Loren of the corners of his eyes can perceive the skeptical look of the other party. This college is not big, so most of the apprentices know each other. Of course, his appearance will appear abrupt, and he can even hear the deliberately lowered conversations behind him, and the instructions behind him. Pointing.

If you have time, Loren does n’t mind pretending to be a ignorant new apprentice, satisfying the vanity of those apprentices with one or two small questions, and then mixing into their circles. After all, this will also allow you to be in this future. The college is much more convenient.

But it's a pity that what he lacks most now is time, so for these people Loren would be too lazy to ignore.

Three days after the day when Ain's notes were taken, Loren spent time continuing to build and practice spells. He felt that his spiritual hall still had a lot of room to play, plus what he had tried so far. The threat of magic to yourself is infinitely close to zero, so in the end Loren began to try to reverse the spell.

Spells and magic are the regularization of the power of the void, like turning symbols into words and illusions into reality. So if you can dismantle its structure step by step according to the order of the spell, to reverse the principles of its formation, you can strengthen your understanding of the void, and it is much faster than simple learning.

But the speed of progress is still difficult to satisfy him. The little wizard is still specializing in alchemy, which is not good at mysticism or curse science, and it is difficult to help Loren too much. So he thought of trying his luck in the library, and by the way, he looked for someone who was "pretentious genius."

Although the other party is not very easy to get along with, but considering that he wants others, as long as he meets his vanity as much as possible, it does not seem to be particularly difficult to communicate.

"What's the matter?"

The young wizard lay lazily on the chair, apparently already knowing who was behind him, so he deliberately used this "want to refuse to welcome" tone.

For a moment, Loren suddenly wanted to roll his eyes like Ain. But he still restrained this irrational impulse: "It's nothing, just some questions about occultism, it's no big deal."

"However, since Isaac is so busy now ..." Loren also deliberately squeezed: "Then I should probably go to Ain."

"Ain ?!" Isaac, who was just wandering around, jumped up immediately: "What do you do to find Ain, I am the smartest of our three apprentices!"

"And looking for Ain Rand to study occultism? You might as well try to teach the rabbit to speak human language, the latter seems to have certain feasibility!" Immediately deflated: "Well, if you have any questions, just ask."

"Roughly like this, I'm trying to parse the structure of the spell by pushing it back, and ..."

"Let's decipher its principles and patterns!" Isaac finished speaking before Loren directly, and the young wizard lit up: "Well, why didn't I think of such a good way to learn occultism before? Probably Is it because I am too smart to use it at all? "

"And this method is also not very useful for potatoes whose brains are flooded, which is too deep for them." Pointing to the apprentices who gathered in the distance and talking, Isaac continued excitedly: " But this is still a very interesting way. Is there any problem? You must have a problem, right? "

"This speed is still too slow. I need more books about the void, more in detail, about how to use the power of the void." Loren said: "Of course ... only about the academic aspect."

"Um ... so you need a good librarian to help you find these documents, and then someone who can answer your questions." Isaac nodded seriously, and then stood up immediately: " But now that I ’m here, you do n’t need anything! "

"Mali, let's get started now, Brother Loren, we have a whole afternoon to solve your little troubles!"

Looking at the bookshelves that had run to the distance and turned over, the smiling Loren could not help remembering what some people said ... The most hoped by the martyrs is generosity; and Isaac Grantham The most eager person for this pretentious person is the need of others, otherwise he will not find a sense of existence.

Just throw the bait, he can't wait to rush up, solve all the processes and troubles for himself, and then wait like a puppy with a wagging tail, waiting for him to show an incredible expression of surprise.

At the moment, Isaac is completely out of the lazy look. He walks to the bookcase like a precise hound, takes the one he needs, and then turns to the next one. The posture seems to have a route painted. The map floated in front of his eyes, telling him the exact location of each book.

The whole process took less than a quarter of an hour, and Isaac returned to the original point, leaving a thick file in front of Loren: "Although you have not started to watch, I can tell you that so far Any wizard has ever used a similar method to yours to learn occultism. "

"But in some literature on curse science, there have indeed been some wizards in the past who used similar means to parse spells, but most of them are only applicable to low-level spells." No wait for Loren to speak, Isaac I picked up the dossier and turned to that page for him: "I think it may be somewhat of a reference to you."

"Wait ... Have you read all the books in this library?" Loren asked tentatively.

"I don't think your rhetoric is accurate at all." Isaac snorted sneeredly: "In my way, all the knowledge in this room, I can know exactly which one it is hiding in. Bookcase, UU reads the page of which book www.uukanshu.com. If not, it must be taken or lost by someone! "

"Sorry ..." Loren smiled apologetically. He suddenly realized that this might be a great opportunity, but he couldn't behave too abruptly. He had to follow the temptation when he was not paying attention, and actively tell himself. Row.

The advantage of having a genius around is that the other party only needs a few words to make those apprentices rack their brains, as simple as one plus one equals two, and Isaac ’s super memory is also saved It was time for Loren to turn the book. Even in the field of curse science where the opponent is not good at, Isaac's understanding is better than Ain.

That's why the little wizard kept saying that he was a pretentious bastard, but at the same time he had to admit that the other party's talent really exceeded himself. According to Loren's understanding, the guy in front of him who speaks faster than he turns the book, I'm afraid he doesn't understand any human relations, it may be deliberately pretending to be this look.

But what's wrong with this? Is Ain Rand really so naive, is there a little secret that is unknown? So this kind of thing doesn't matter at all. As long as the other party can really help himself, Loren doesn't care whether the other party is really the same.

Especially he is not the same guy as he is.

"In short, although this way of inverting the structure of the spell is good, the flaws are also obvious. The simple low-level spell is of little help to you, but it is a pure waste of this wonderful attention." Isaac showed some for the first time. Tough expression: "Perhaps this is one of the reasons why incompetent spellcasters can only be a juggler for a lifetime."

"So ... do you know a certain high-level spell?" Loren said "inadvertently".
