The Lord of Ashes

With a second-level witch who is familiar with the Snow Spirit world to lead the way, Thain and Lenna's subsequent travel trip will indeed be more efficient than traveling alone.

There are many unique natural scenery and special energy gathering places in the snow spirit world. Without a familiar person to guide them, it would be difficult for Thain and Lenna to find them in the gaps between the swaying snow ravines and cliffs.

Maybe it's because they've been together for a longer time, and Thain and Marilyn have communicated more.

It is always easy to find a common language between magicians and wizards.

Thain was very interested in Marilyn's ice-based witchcraft and special body-tempering ability. After Marilyn had been in contact with Thain for a while, she was shocked to find that Thain was the truly rare passive evolution research subject.

"You don't have any fighting spirit in your body, but your physical strength is more exaggerated than some second-level knights. What's going on?" Marilyn asked in surprise.

The secret of the Jade Fire Tempered Body that Thain mastered originated from the Jade Burning Fire Master Sect where he belonged.

As the highest elemental secret in the sect, it is certainly impossible for Thane to give it to Marilyn.

At the same time, the secret of ice tempering that Marilyn masters is also one of the inherited skills unique to her line of teachers.

Thain didn't know how mysterious the secret of ice quenching that Marilyn mastered was, but the pursuit of the truth still allowed the two magicians to contact each other for a period of time and reveal a little bit of their own refining skills to each other through academic exchanges. body knowledge.

This kind of academic exchange is a relatively normal way of communication between magicians in wizarding civilization, and it is not considered betraying the secrets of the wizarding sect.

When Thain attended some masquerades or banquets held by some first- and second-level magicians at the Holy Tower of the Origin of Blue, these Holy Tower magicians would also gather in groups of twos and threes to discuss doctrines based on their respective circles of friends.

As long as it does not involve other people's core mysteries, shallow knowledge exchanges can actually broaden the horizons of magicians and create different sparks of thinking.

The more he communicated with Marilyn, the more interested Thain and her became in each other.

Although both of them wanted to bring each other to the experimental platform to analyze and study, they finally restrained themselves better.

The Snow Spirit World is huge, but it doesn’t take too long to walk directly to the first snow mountain in the Snow Spirit World.

About three years later, Thain and others arrived at the first snow mountain in the snow spirit world.

The towering snow-capped mountains and the power of ice that never melts for thousands of years make the environment and atmosphere here even more profound.

When Thain and his team started climbing, even with Lenna and Thain's physiques, they had to wear special cotton jackets with a constant temperature magic circle.

"I didn't expect you to have such in-depth research in the field of alchemy. How much magical knowledge do you have?" Marilyn, who was also wearing a thickened blue magic robe, couldn't help but ask.

The magic robe Marilyn was wearing at this time was naturally modified by Thain.

However, Thain's attention at this time was not on the surrounding snow-capped mountains and the bone-chilling cold, but on Marilyn's wrist exposed from the cuff of her magic robe.

This is not a fair-skinned wrist, but an arm with special blue ice crystals floating on the surface.

"This should be the secret of your ice body, right?"

"What about you? In addition to ice witchcraft, the mystery of the ice body, and the elemental summoning ability, what other special genealogy knowledge do you have?" Thain couldn't help but ask.

Marilyn couldn't help but rolled her eyes at Thain's rhetorical question.

The relationship between the two is not that close yet. Like Thain, she also has some hidden cards.

Speaking of which, the group of magicians is quite interesting. Many magicians don't mind communicating with their peers, but this kind of communication is limited to superficial knowledge.

And not all knowledge is willing to be exchanged. Like Thain and Marilyn, there are many magicians who are unwilling to easily share their bottom-of-the-box knowledge.

I am afraid that only during the war will these magicians be able to unreservedly demonstrate the powerful combat power brought by their elemental secrets.

…

Thain and his team stayed at the first snow mountain in the Snow Spirit World for nearly four years.

In Marilyn's words, the most attractive part of the entire Snow Spirit World is this continuous stretch of towering snow-capped mountains.

As for other areas in the Snow Spirit World, although they have their own characteristics, they are generally similar. They are all endless snowfields or ice peaks, and you will get tired of them after looking at them for a long time.

The highest peak of the snow-capped mountain in the Snow Spirit World - Mount Gilimanjaro, Thain and his team still failed to climb it.

The altitude of this mountain is so high that it is about to touch the shrinking dimensional barrier of the Snow Spirit World.

‏‎‏‎‏​‎‏‎​‏‏‎‎‏‏Including the air pressure, temperature and gale strength of this mountain peak, they are far beyond the endurance limit of the strongest shield that a second-level magician can possess.

According to Marilyn, among the witches who come to travel to the Snow Spirit World, only a very few extremely powerful demigod-level witches can reach the top of this mountain and get a glimpse of the entire Snow Spirit World.

"I don't know if I can see the sealed sixth-level knight Hosta at the top of the highest mountain."

"Or maybe the so-called ice and snow seal is just a legend."

"As I see and feel more and more things with my own eyes, I find that many of the things introduced in the Holy Tower Library's classics may not be fully credible." Marilyn shrugged.

"All things and planes are moving forward. The knowledge and information contained in the Holy Tower Library is only the status of that era."

"In our generation, some changes are normal." Thain responded with insight.

While the two magicians were communicating there, Lenna found a place relatively leeward and lay down out of boredom.

In Lenna's eyes, this is just an ordinary ice plane, where does it come from so many insights.

After coming down from Mount Kilimanjaro, Marilyn took the initiative to say goodbye to Thane and others.

After several years of getting along with each other, Marilyn has almost recorded all the basic knowledge she can get from Sean and Lenna.

Including Thain, he also benefited a lot and gained many basic spellcasting skills unique to the North.

Only Lenna was the worst off. From time to time, she served as the experimental carrier for the two magicians. After several years of hard work, Lenna looked a little thinner.

Well, only an acquaintance like Sean can tell that Lenna has lost a little weight.

As for Marilyn, Lenna obviously hasn't changed much.

On the eve of their separation, Marilyn also exchanged crystal ball contact information with Sean.

Although I don't know if there is any chance that the two of them will meet and contact each other in the future, after getting along for a while, the two of them have a good sense of each other and can be called friends.

"Since you are leaving, I will help you with your divination."

"Originally, this visit to the Snow Spirit World was prompted by my divination from the crystal ball. Sure enough, I met the two of you who are extremely rare in this world, and I benefited a lot." Marilyn said.

This was not her first time in the Snow Spirit World. If not for the special divination reminder, her original plan was to go to another alliance world.

Sure enough, in addition to what Thain already knew, the mysterious second-level witch Marilyn also had other genealogical knowledge.

Astrology has always been an extremely high-end academic system in the wizarding world. Thain has also studied a lot of space and plane theories before, but astrology seems to be more difficult than these two disciplines.

More importantly, what astrology seems to value most is not the level of knowledge and energy of magicians, but the elusive "talent".

Only magicians with special talents can dabble in astrology.

Thain had also read about the basic knowledge of astrology in the Holy Tower Library. Judging from the results, it seemed that he had no talent in this area, or that he was not talented enough.

Thain did not see Marilyn's astrological process.

It seems that astrology is a very private process, and there are many taboos during it.

After nagging for several days, Marilyn finally gave Sean and Lenna their horoscope results.

To be honest, the results of this astrology are the same as those without.

The astrological description of Lenna is that Lenna has a high probability of being successfully promoted to level three within the next five hundred years.

Lenna was already stuck at the second level peak level, and had already reached the third level once.

With the last failure experience and the re-accumulation of knowledge, the next breakthrough, at least in Thain's view, is a certainty.

What kind of divination is this?

On the other hand, Lenna, whose self-confidence had seriously declined after her last failure, narrowed her eyes in laughter after hearing the astrology result, and she also forgot about the experiments Marilyn had done on her.

Regarding Thain's divination, Marilyn also gave no useful information.

He just looked at Thain with sympathy, patted his shoulder and said: "You may encounter a bloody disaster next, but that is also your opportunity."

"This crisis will probably happen in a thousand years, good luck to you!" Marilyn gloated.

A crisis that occurred within a thousand years... Thain turned around and left speechlessly.

Which plane war is not accompanied by danger?

It seems that Thane has never participated in a battle where there was absolutely no danger.

As for within a thousand years, that is even more nonsense.

If it was a specific year, or within a dozen years, Thain would deliberately take precautions.

But a thousand years is too long, and it is impossible for Thain to change his travel plan just because of Marilyn's specious divination result.

Thain even felt that this second-level witch with a unique personality was just making fun of him.

Of course, Marilyn's divination results also show a major feature of astrology.

If you want to rely solely on astrology to avoid bad luck, that would be too natural.

Astrology also has a probability of success and failure, and the divination results obtained by astrologers with lower abilities are often very vague, or they are simply the same as Marilyn's divination results, which are invalid information.

Marilyn, on the other hand, felt extremely happy and sad while making fun of Thain. She found that her hair had turned gray again.

"The price I paid for giving you a horoscope is almost four times that of Lenna! You have to compensate me!" Marilyn said through gritted teeth, and extended her delicate hand to Thain, clearly seeking benefits.

Thane rolled his eyes back at her.
