The Rise of the Cemetery

Chapter 0007 Ocean of Knowledge

Putting on the mage's robe and pinning the mage's badge, Li Xun smoothly checked into the Pearl Tears Hotel in the northern suburb of Dascal City.

After dismissing the waiter, Li Xun looked around the room and nodded in satisfaction. Seeing that it was still early, he called a carriage and went straight to the city-state council hall without stopping.

Sir Edward, a smart and capable middle-aged man with a mustache, warmly received Li Xun who was ushered in by the guards. First, I thanked Master Li Xun for choosing to become a contract mage in the Principality, then read out the basic treatment of a contract mage in the Principality, and finally began to ask Master Li Xun for his opinion on whether he would like to accept a fief in the Principality. Li Xun considered it again and again, but politely refused, but said that if the principality needs the help of a mage, he is willing to provide magic support, especially in the eradication of thieves and bandits.

Although Sir Edward was surprised, he was more pleasantly surprised. Although the Principality already has hundreds of contract mages, most of them are low-level mages, and they are not under control at all. As long as the Principality does not have a large-scale foreign war forcibly recruited, they are not willing to waste time participating in domestic security and bandit-like battles. Now There is actually a level 4 mage who expresses his willingness to participate, which will definitely greatly alleviate the generals' complaints about the mage.

With this catalyst, Sir Edward's enthusiasm increased a bit, saying that he would definitely get better treatment for Master Li Xun. Li Xun left Sir Edward his address in the Pearl Tears Hotel, took the bronze medal of the contract mage, and went directly to the library under the leadership of the guards.

After wandering around for almost a day, he finally achieved his goal. Standing in front of the big round arch of the library, Li Xun couldn't help sighing. The city-state library is exclusive to the nobles. There are nearly a thousand volumes of various books in it. It is usually only used by nobles, mages, and scholars. Common people don't even think about stepping in. What I am most afraid of now is making mistakes, and the only thing that can guide me is books.

Li Xun entered the library under the guidance of the guards, and after showing his bronze medal as a contracted mage, he could freely read the books inside. Li Xun did not choose books about mages, but went straight to history books. He chose a bunch of books about the general history of the mainland, famous travel notes, and the general history of the Novus Kingdom, and asked the guards to send copies of all the selected books to him at the hotel. s room. After paying the book borrowing fee of 10 gold coins, Li Xun can already lie on the comfortable sofa in the hotel, enjoying special food and chewing on history books.

Li Xun has such a tough spirit, he didn't go out for 10 days, and finally read most of the general history of the mainland and the general history of the kingdom, and he has a preliminary understanding of where he is. The more I know, the less my identity as an outsider will be weakened, and my sense of alienation from this world will gradually dissipate. Li Xun believes that he will become a member of this world, and a very important one.

Closing the heavy book in his hand, Li Xun closed his eyes, and slowly sorted out the knowledge of the past 7 days in his mind. Gradually, a real Klein Continent appeared before his eyes.

Klein is a magical world full of magic and monsters. Magic plays a very important role in the world, widely affecting every corner of society and industry. Relying on the power of magic, towering castles towered over the Klein Continent, and carriages powered by elemental power galloped through the streets and alleys. Magic has brought endless convenience to people, magic is the source of industrial development, and magic is the spark of invention and creation.

In 894 of the Klein calendar, the last king of Calipha, King Geralt, died. With his death, the kingdom of Califar fell apart in battle after battle, amid civil wars ignited by Geralt's sons over control of the declining kingdom. This terrible disaster was later called "the last war".

It lasted for a century and ended with the Treaty of the Throne unanimously signed by twelve stable and independent nations. They are: Alvindale, Braeland, Dagon, the States of El Tien, Karnas, the Principality of Novis, Morjor Hed, Qibaira, Taranta Plains, Thrane , Vionore, Hilalg. Other regions also took shape during the war, including Droam, the Shadowlands, the Demon Wastes, and Morad the Mournland. These various countries and regions either split or annexed, and finally formed the current Klein Continent.

And the Principality of Novis, where I am located, is located at the northern end of the Klein Continent. The Grand Duke of Novis, with the capital Pierpont as the center, rules 17 cities and surrounding areas. In the end, it was only stronger than Thrane Kingdom. With the passage of time, the 12 main countries of the Klein Continent, or the mages in the territory are powerful and occupy the right to speak; or the theocracy is strong and become a religious country;

Chaos, it's really too messy, Li Xun lamented that it is really delusional to find a pure land without crisis in the world. Qibaila, Dagon, and Brayland are currently in power of the Mage Guild; Alvindale, Karnas, Veonor, and Xilarg are religious states; the Altin states and Serene are commercial states; Taran The country of Tower Plain is a country of mercenaries; there is a large area of ​​undead natural disasters in Moorhede, and the country is currently on the verge of extinction; the Principality of Novis is located in the north, blocked by the towering Avili mountains, and it can barely maintain The ancient national metric system, but the mage guild and various religions have also appeared in the territory, and how the future will develop is still unclear.

As for the whole continent's attitude towards undead magic, it is still very firm. With the lessons learned by Moor Hede, all major countries strictly banned undead magic within their borders, strangled necromancers, and even many dark mages were hit; only The three countries ruled by the Mage Guild are relatively loose, and they still list the necromancers as a branch of the sorcerers. It only restricts the spread of necromancer magic, and does not kill all necromancers; and the paradise of the necromancers is Morrahd and Taran The country of Ta Pingyuan, one basically became the base camp of necromancers, and the other was a country of mercenaries. As long as the necromancers did not make major sabotage actions in the territory, they could come and go freely.

Since Morrorched is the closest to the Principality of Novus, if it weren't for the Avili mountains, the undead creatures of the Necromancer might have spread to the Principality of Novus. Regarding this situation, Li Xun specifically got to know the Necromancers of Lower Moror Hede. It seems that they have signs of establishing an independent country, and they are eager to get rid of the Mages Guild and become a real kingdom of the undead. Their leaders are five legendary liches, who formed a council of the undead, which controlled nearly 70% of the territory of Moror Hede. The terrain of Weiss Lake and Tutarion Forest established a defense line, and the messengers for help rushed in all directions, and almost every independent force received the request for help. It is rumored that a joint meeting on how to deal with the Necromancers of Morjorheed will be held in Standwick, the capital of the Altin states, to discuss the next step.

Li Xun stuck out his tongue when he saw that there were actually 5 legendary liches in Morrow Hede. They were fierce people above level 20, and there were as many as 5 of them. Looking back at the Principality of Novus, I only heard that the Grand Duke of Novus There is a 22nd-level star legendary mage Katie Enni, and the Mage Guild also has a 21st-level legendary mage, the blue star Serena, who is resident in the capital of the Principality of Novis. Now Li Xun is no longer an idiot who doesn't know anything. From the books, he learned that the basic division method of Klein Continent mage levels is as follows:

Mage: Level 1-5 Low-level Mage Masters 1-2 level spells

Level 6-10 Middle-level Mage Can control up to level 5 spells

Level 11-15 High-level mages can control up to level 7 spells

Level 16-19 Archmage Can control up to level 9 spells

Level 20 Holy Mage Can cast quasi-legendary spells

Level 21-25 Legendary Mage Possesses personal legendary spells

Level 26-29 Demigod Mage Possesses domain power

Level 30 and above Undocumented

The other professions are similar, and most of them are divided into 5 levels. Of course, the levels may be the same, but the combat power is very different. For the same high-level occupation, a level 7 group injury spell of a high-level mage can kill a group of high-level knights and high-level assassins, but a high-level assassin can kill a group of high-level knights and high-level assassins one by one without injury. A mage, and a well-prepared high-level knight can fight a group of high-level assassins head-on. Therefore, there is no necessarily powerful profession, only useful skills and techniques, and flexible use of what you have is the real essence of a profession!

The more Li Xun knows about the mainland, the more he feels that there is a lot to do, and it is really suitable for him to gain a foothold in Novus. The world is in turmoil, and all attention is focused on the Necromancer dynamics of Moror Hede, and the Principality of Novis is the closest to Moror Hede, so it will inevitably devote its main energy to the border area of ​​the southern Avili Mountains. The city of Daskar where I am located is in the northern part of Novis Principality, more than 2,000 miles away from the capital Pierpont. No matter the power of the royal family, the power of the Mages Guild or the power of religion is very weak, it is also suitable for raising flags for rebellion!

Li Xun rubbed his smooth chin, and smiled wickedly. Li Xun would never have the idea of ​​taking refuge in the power of the Morro Herd Necromancer. Even if I put my uniqueness in an undead creature, it can't be covered up. If I go there, I might become the experimental subject of those five legendary liches. However, it is not impossible to pretend to be the periphery of the Necromancer's forces on appropriate occasions. It is of course better to be able to have both sides!

The determination he made in Yongwang Town has not wavered. After all, Li Xun is only a 17-year-old young man. Let him wantonly slaughter hundreds of innocent humans as his own stepping stone. He really can't do it, even if he only needs to wave Waving, everything is done by the Skeleton Warrior, and he can't do it either. Li Xun carries the Heroes and Invincible Cemetery family in his soul, but he still has a human heart!
