Infinite Simulation: From Konoha to Katsuki

Chapter 34 Special Admissions for the Clock Tower

Surprise flashed in Astarte's eyes.

It's really puzzling that I don't know the Magic Association at all, but I can get a special recruitment spot.

"Not the kind of magic you're talking about."

Astarte took out a ruby ​​and uttered a word.

A flame flickered in her palm.

Li Xiang was silent for a moment, and asked, "You call this magic?"

His rant is serious.

In his previous life, he wanted to know very much.

"You can understand it as magic in novels or movies."

Astarte didn't seem surprised and said, "But you have to remember, as a magician, don't say the word magic lightly."

Li Xiang nodded.

In Xingyue, the concept of magic is more like the laws of the world, each of which has unimaginable power.

"Let me briefly introduce to you. The Clock Tower is one of the three major departments of the Magic Association. It is located on the outskirts of London and has a history of more than 2000 years. We manage, hide and develop magic, and are the most cutting-edge magic research structure."

Astarte paused, picked up a piece of paper, and continued to read as usual:
"The clock tower is divided into twelve disciplines, overall foundation, individual foundation, spirit, ore, animal, inheritance, plant, celestial body, creation, curse, archaeology and modern magic theory. Each discipline has its own special magic System, in theory, there is no difference between high and low."

"I come from the ore department, and I just used gem magic, one of the magic systems of the ore department. Combining different types and quantities of gems, you can use different magic."

Well, it costs money.

Only suitable for magicians with banknote abilities.

Li Xiang thought of Rin Tosaka, one of the heroines of "Fate/stay night".

She uses gem magic.

After the death of her father Tosaka Tokiomi, she was unable to afford the huge expenses and was forced to work part-time.

"According to the normal admission procedure, you need to study all the basic subjects for five years. The main course is general knowledge of magicians, and then transfer to other subjects, just like entering a university from high school."

Astarte glanced at the notice, "Well, you are a special recruit, you can skip all basic courses."

"Special admissions?"

Li Xiang looked at her and asked, "What's special about me?"

"I'm curious too."

Astarte blinked meaningfully, and said, "Originally, this quota belonged to the El-Melloi family, but it was temporarily replaced by you."

Elmelo?

Li Xiang heard a familiar surname.

Associated with it are Kenneth and Webb.

Both were participants in the Fourth Holy Grail War.

But the former was killed, and the latter returned to the clock tower and inherited the title of El Mello, becoming one of the twelve monarchs.

In the FGO mobile game, Weber borrows the power of Zhuge Kongming and is summoned by the player as a follower.

"The clock tower has twelve disciplines, and there are also twelve monarchs. They are figures standing at the top of the magic world."

Astarte propped up his chin with one hand, and said, "Fortunately, Monarch El-Melloi II is in deep trouble, and probably won't bother you."

If it is II, then it refers to Weber.

Li Xiang quickly speculated that the time point of appearance was just before the start of the Fifth Holy Grail War.

It is in the plot of "Sovereign El-Melloi II Casebook".

Offending one of the protagonists at the beginning is not so good.

But considering Weber's character, he really doesn't look like a haggling magician.

"Originally, I was entrusted by the monarch of the Mineral Science Department to invite you, but since you don't know much about the clock tower, you should read this book first."

Astarte took out a book and handed it to Li Xiang.

"Thank you."

Li Xiang opened it directly.

In his previous life, he also knew about the clock tower, but it was all from anime, not very specific.

And this "Introduction to the Twelve Subjects of the Clock Tower" is more detailed.

Astarte watched him intently, eyes as calm as space.

Half an hour later, Li Xiang raised his head and said, "I have basically understood."

"Have you decided which subject to join?"

Astarte tilted his head, "I hope you join the ore department and become my apprentice."

Moment of cuteness.

Li Xiang was not affected.

His mind was not on women, but on the gates of this new world.

"Is there any privilege for special admissions?"

"It is possible to have a teacher."

Astarte explained, "In the Clock Tower, lecturers and teachers are two concepts. The former is only responsible for lecturing, but the latter is not only a lecturer, but also a master who teaches you one-on-one."

"If my sister can recommend a teacher for me, I can join the ore department."

Li Xiang thought about it and said.

Under normal circumstances, he should choose the modern magic department and mix with the protagonist Weber.

But he had offended him unintentionally, plus the El-Mello family had been bad after Kenneth's death.

There is no need for Li Xiang to be involved in these struggles now.

His plug-in is an emulator.

As long as there are enough talents, it becomes very easy for him to intervene.

"Really clever."

Astarte hooked her fingers and said, "I like you very much, you won't suffer a lot if you join the ore department."

Li Xiang ignored her joke and said, "Please trouble me, senior."

"The next thing is to test the qualifications."

Astarte didn't mind retracting his fingers, and said, "The aptitude of a magician is determined by the magic circuits in the body. The so-called magic circuits can be understood as special nerves, without which one cannot use magic. The criterion for judging is the number of magic circuits and quality."

"How to measure?"

"It's simple."

Astarte put on her boots and jumped off the table.

At this time, Li Xiang found that the girl was only about 1.5 meters tall, a head shorter than him.

Astarte also noticed the height problem, she tiptoed slightly, and stretched out her hand to press the top of Li Xiang's head.

At the same time, he took out a blue gemstone in his left hand and crushed it into powder effortlessly.

"..."

If Li Xiang remembered correctly, the hardness of sapphire is nine, second only to ten of diamond.

Astarte spat out a syllable.

Mysterious blue enveloped him.

Li Xiang suddenly felt a slight burning sensation in his right arm.

He opened his sleeves and saw three loops.

"There are three magic circuits, but the quality is very high. Taken together, the magic qualification is A-level."

Astarte took two steps back and said, "After the magic circuit is turned on, the body will experience discomfort, and the longer it is used, the more painful it will be. The switch of the magic circuit is called mental imagery, and you can feel your mental imagery with your eyes closed."

Li Xiang closed his eyes upon hearing this.

A sword came to mind.

He controlled to close the magic circuit, and the faint blue light disappeared.

"You have five magical attributes, earth, water, fire, wind, and space."

Astarte continued, "There is no doubt that he is a magic genius, and it is reasonable to be specially recruited."

Li Xiang thought of his A-level talent magic wand.

There is no doubt that this is the embodiment of it.

"For more specific content, I will wait until the clock tower, and then I will explain it to you in detail."

Astarte handed him a Nokia and said, "The latest model, call me when you're ready."

[The host joins the clock tower, and the space-time node is activated. 】

[Open the main world simulation, you can save it, and return to the save after death. 】

[The archive can store up to five time nodes. 】

[Open the property panel of the host. 】

Li Xiang took the Nokia, couldn't help showing a smile, and said, "Okay."
