I have a role in the heavens

"Ivan, you did a great job. If there is anything you want, I will satisfy you!"

Count Vincent is definitely not an easily excited person. He is known for his wisdom and calmness. Now he actually said such a thing because Ivan Vincent inspired and awakened the power of his bloodline. This shows that this matter has serious consequences for the Vincent family. How important.

Ivan Vincent is the only one in this area. If he cannot inspire the power of blood, then the Vincent family will inevitably decline. Even if the nobles are not removed, their power and status will inevitably be greatly reduced, and they will gradually become far away from the political center and become a fringe. figure.

When Ivan Vincent heard this, he calmly put down the tableware in his hand, wiped the corners of his mouth, and spoke slowly and calmly.

"Father, I still have the same request, the magician's training method. I don't want anything else!"

After hearing this, Earl Vincent immediately released his grip on Ivan Vincent's hands, took a step back, and looked at his son with extremely serious eyes. There was weighing and thinking in his eyes, and a heavy atmosphere suddenly filled the air. The entire restaurant was filled with a sense of confrontation between father and son.

Ivan Vincent looked up at Count Vincent, his eyes were firm, and he did not give in or dodge. People could clearly feel his unwavering determination.

A complicated look appeared on Count Vincent's face, and there was a hint of compromise in his eyes. He sighed and said helplessly.

"You are really stubborn. I thought you would give up studying magic after embarking on the path of knighthood?"

Ivan Vincent shook his head, disapproving of Earl Vincent's words, and still said firmly.

"Father, nobles should not reject any path that can enhance their strength. There is no difference between magicians and knights. They are just professions that control power. There is no need to distinguish them so clearly. You must know what we call bloodline Isn’t power also the result of magic experiments in ancient times? Otherwise, how could humans obtain the abilities of magical creatures?”

Ivan Vincent's words were not empty talk. He came to the conclusion after reading the family's collection of books. This information is recorded in most noble families with a long history.

Earl Vincent has also read relevant classics and understands that the so-called knights were originally just attendants of magicians and the result of magic experiments. However, this is a buried historical secret that the nobles will not admit, nor will the church. He frowned slightly, enough to trap mosquitoes and flies. He looked helplessly at his extremely smart son and sighed.

"Ivan, even if you are a noble, you must have a sense of awe. If you just use some magic potions and magic props, it doesn't matter. Even if the church finds out, it will tolerate this situation. But if you practice magic, then It’s different, the nature has changed, and you will be treated as a traitor and heretic by the church, do you understand what I mean?”

The combined power of the nobles can indeed compete with the church and the Magic Council, but the nobles have never been united. As long as the church does not do too much, it is impossible for the nobles to unite to resist the rule of the church.

"Of course, I understand what you mean. I will always be a knight. I have never been exposed to magicians, but I need to understand them. I think you, father, also understand what I mean!"

A relaxed smile appeared on Count Vincent's solemn face. He reached out and patted Ivan Vincent's golden hair. His hand felt extremely soft and he said happily.

"You are right, you just want to understand the joy of the magician, and you have absolutely no intention of studying!"

"Go to my study. There are the books you need there. You know where these things should be placed! You can only read these things in the study in the future and never take them out. After reading, you must put these things away. Burn them cleanly, we have never had these books in Vincent Manor!"

Count Vincent had already obtained a copy of the first-level mage training notes, which he bought at a high price from the black market. It had not passed through anyone's hands. This kind of thing should not be known to outsiders. Count Vincent was a cautious person. , will never let go of careless mistakes.

Count Vincent has been hesitant and has not made up his mind to hand over this note to Ivan Vincent. He does not want Ivan Vincent to take risks, but seeing him so determined today, he understands that some things cannot be stopped. If If you don't get what you want from him, Ivan Vincent will definitely find a way on his own, and other risks will most likely arise.

Ivan Vincent got what he wanted, and did not show any excitement. He bowed and saluted, and then slowly left the restaurant and walked towards the study. Since the magic notebook was in the study, it must only be It will be in one place, and that is the secret room in the study. This is a secret of the Vincent family, and only their father and son know it.

There was no magic lamp in the dark secret room. There was an oil lamp placed on the wall. The dim flame illuminated the small space. Even with Ivan Vincent's breathing, the flame would sway and the light and shadow would sway. Mottled and flashing, a bit eerie.

Ivan Vincent was sitting on the ground. There was a training diary of a female mage placed on the ground. This female mage was not from the Magic Council of the Northern Continent. She was just a lucky person who had received the inheritance of magic. She also knew how to practice magic. Although I don't know why, I don't know the principles and rules, but this is enough for Ivan Vincent.

All Ivan Vincent needs is the foundation of magic practice, spiritual meditation, and the spell structure of magic. As long as he knows how the magic in this world obtains extraordinary power, he can deduce the path of the arcanist's practice by himself. In terms of knowledge and wisdom, the seven great arcane masters of the Continental Magic Council combined may not be as powerful as him. He alone is an arcane system and can establish a standard arcane research theory from scratch, and even It is more complete than the current Magic Council system.

After all, Ivan Vincent has experienced too much, has accumulated experience in dozens of worlds, and has scientific and rigorous thinking and methods. This magical world uses scientific theories to practice magic, but it only has the Arcane Emperor and the Magic Chosen. It started with Derrick Douglas, the president of the Magic Council. He was a great wise man who created the arcane system and promoted the development of history. He can be regarded as the enlightener of arcane civilization in this world and the first arcane practitioner in the strict sense. division.

Even Ivan Vincent respects him very much. Such wise men who single-handedly promote the development of world civilization exist in every world. They are all influential figures. Maybe they are not the strongest or most famous in the world. , even misunderstood and rejected by the times, but everyone will remember him in the future, because time will prove that they are right.

Ivan Vincent looked attentively at the magic diary in front of him, "The Book of Astrology and Elements". The name is very fancy, but it is actually the training diary of a first-level female mage. It records in detail the transformation from a magic apprentice to a formal magician. After the teacher's process, there will be no more, which is normal. After all, the Principality of Violet is under the rule of the church. Magicians are like mice in a dark corner, unable to see the light, and their magical heritage is not profound. It is not easy to become an official magician.

No matter what happens after becoming an official magician, Ivan Vincent can now start learning magic.

According to the records of this female mage, in the ancient magic empire, magic was recognized as the mysterious changes of the four basic elements of earth, fire, wind, and water under the influence of spiritual power. Later, light, darkness, soul, etc. were added, and There is also a summoning system that can summon monsters from hell, abyss or other alien spaces, so magic is divided into eight factions: elemental system, astrological system, necromancy system, illusion system, summoning system, force field system, change system, The alchemy system, while the "Book of Astrology and Elements" is mainly based on the element system and astrology system, with a small amount of magic from other factions mixed in.

Before becoming a formal magician, you cannot learn a level of magic. You can only learn informal magic, which is called a magic apprentice. The spell structure of informal magic is very simple. In Ivan Vincent's opinion, it is just a clear rune composed of standard geometric patterns at the junior high school level, simpler than a six-pointed star. Then, by chanting its pronunciation and combining with mental power to stimulate the corresponding magic The materials can be used to form runes. According to the standard of mental power, that is, from full to dry mental power, the number of informal magic that can be used at one time, magic apprentices are divided into three levels: apprentice, formal, and advanced, which are five, ten, and twenty respectively.

After you have tempered your mental power and soul to a certain extent through meditation, you can use potions to stimulate your mental power, make it stronger, and construct a magic imprint model in your soul. As long as you can successfully construct a mark model of a one-level spell, you can become an official magician. The casting of this spell will not require the cooperation of incantations, casting materials, and gestures. It only depends on whether the mental power is exhausted and whether it is still in the The buffer period from the last magic.

In this book, "The Book of Astrology and Elements", apart from spiritual meditation and a few simple spell structures, there is only one speech that is most meaningful. This speech was given by Douglas at the Magic Council three hundred years ago. explain.

"Gentlemen and ladies, many years ago, our respected ancestors of mankind learned how to use spiritual power from dragons, elves, giants, demons, devils and various magical creatures, and then analyzed them With their body structure and blood characteristics, they gradually integrated their blood, transformed their bodies, invented many meditation methods to enhance their mental power, and created various magics by referring to the magic pattern structures inside and outside their bodies. Gaining powerful power, we drove the demons back to the abyss, kicked the devils back to hell, and made the dragons, elves, and giants either retreat to remote and uninhabited mountains, wilderness, and alien spaces, or surrender at our feet. "

"The glorious victory made the ancient legendary magicians pursue power even more persistently, going to the abyss, hell, and various alien spaces to conquer, until the Cult of Truth grew stronger and the three major magic empires were destroyed in just a few hundred years. The glory of the past has turned into the bitterness, confusion and despair of today.”

"Dear gentlemen and ladies, it's time to calm down. Don't be fooled by power. It's time to calm down and think about some issues. We need to figure out:"

"What exactly is the nature of magic?"

"Why do living things have spiritual powers?"

"What is the nature of spiritual power?"

"In what form does it exist?"

"Are earth, fire, wind, and water the basic elements? If so, in what form and with what rules do they constitute this wonderful world? If not, what are they? What magic elements should there be?"

"What is the nature of the soul?"

"Are soul and consciousness different? If not, in what form does consciousness exist?"

“Do we need ‘tools’ to elaborate and help model magic?”

"Does God exist? If so, what is His nature and form of existence? What is the form of existence of Aitna, the ancestor of vampires, and why can she not die?"

"Why do we have the sun and the silver moon in this world? Why do they rise and set every day? What force keeps them running this way? If we ask more about the seemingly normal things in the material world, we will find out why. We still don’t understand the truth, but are these principles, laws and knowledge related to magic, can they be combined with magic, and can they help us explore the nature of the magical world?”

"Your dear friend, Douglas."

In the view of Ivan Vincent, this speech is a huge leap forward in civilization. It is the beginning of magicians' objective understanding of the nature of the world. It is the clarion call for the emergence of arcane magic. It has extraordinary significance and shocks people beyond measure. .

"Douglas is really an interesting man and a true wise man. He is an unprecedented creator of civilization in this magical world. Although some divine creatures may be more powerful than him in terms of strength, they are definitely not as great as Douglas!"

"Douglas's ten questions are majestic and point directly to the essence of magic, the origin of the world, and the rules of operation. It is a change in the thinking of studying magic. It is really amazing!"

In this magical world, in addition to the God of Truth, there are also demigods or god-like powerful beings such as the Lord of Silver Moon and the Lord of the Abyss. They are all more powerful and mysterious than legends. Of course, the most powerful one is still the truth that occupies the mainstream belief in the mainland. God, no other divine creature can fight against it.

Ivan Vincent took a deep breath and calmed down his turbulent mood. Douglas's speech made Ivan Vincent very admired. This is a true seeker who can be regarded as a fellow believer. , Ivan Vincent made up his mind that he must go to the Northern Magic Council in the future to visit the first person in magic who opened his eyes to see the world and the founder of arcane magic.

Ivan Vincent slowly exhaled this breath and calmed down completely, allowing his mind to return to a clear and peaceful state. He was ready to try meditation. According to the records in the magic notebook, Ivan Vincent maintained a soft and long The breathing rhythm caused the spirit to spread out, then slowly withdraw, then diverge again, then slowly withdraw again, and soon it entered an almost ethereal and blank state. Ivan Vincent extended his mental power, and what he perceived was completely different from what he could see with his eyes. It was full of steady and heavy power, manic and explosive power, light and scattered power, and soft and continuous power. This is earth, wind, water, fire. The four basic elements feel a bit like the four basic forces in the real world to Ivan Vincent.

"It's interesting. This world is really interesting. It's obviously an extraordinary world, but it actually follows objective laws. It just adds spiritual power, soul and faith, and it becomes a magical world. What does this mean? Extraordinary materialism world?!"

Ivan Vincent's tone was a bit ridiculing. He had never seen such a strange world. Magic actually followed objective matter. In this world, the understanding of the world can be turned into power, and the understanding of the world can be turned into power. The deeper the knowledge, the more spiritual power will get natural feedback from the real world, increase the spiritual power, and obtain the magical prototype of relevant knowledge.

Ivan Vincent continued to meditate, his mental power continued to spread, and the world around him changed again. There was a starry sky above his head, which was dark and bright. Each star was like a small point of light, twinkling continuously. Moreover, they all have an invisible force hanging down to the ground, and the earth also exudes a heavy and steady force of attraction. The earth, wind, water, and fire seem to have become a whole, just like the four basic forces of the universe, they have become a whole state. separate from each other, intertwined with each other.

Ivan Vincent meditated and sensed the starry sky, and immediately began to search for his own "destiny star" according to the astrological meditation method.

The starry sky is vast, boundless, dotted with stars, endless, but after blending the soul and spiritual power and extending them, Ivan Vincent sensed the stars in my bright starry sky, vibrated the fluctuations of mental power, and started according to the astrological meditation method Looking for his own destiny star, the waves spread out and began to float in the starry sky. Gradually, a familiar wave came. It was a bright star, far away from this magical world. I don’t know how far away this star was. The star was unimaginably large and extremely bright, emitting violent nuclear fusion energy fluctuations all the time. The powerful energy wind blast turned the surrounding meteorite belt into fragments.

Ivan Vincent slowly brought his spiritual power mixed with the feeling of his soul into contact with the star, blending and connecting his spiritual power with the star bit by bit.

"boom!"

Violent explosions seemed to be happening all the time in the soul. Countless mushroom clouds like the sun rose up. A powerful energy merged into the mental power. The mental power surged crazily, spreading out like substance, and all the lights in the secret room were destroyed. went out.

Ivan Vincent's spiritual power shook violently, and a ray of golden light gradually stained the surface of his spiritual power, giving people an extremely warm and holy feeling. Ivan Vincent's soul shook, and a huge heart The stellar sun appeared in Ivan Vincent's soul, emitting endless light and heat, extremely surging. These bright lights are tempering Ivan Vincent's mental power all the time.

Ivan Vincent's mental power seems to have turned into a pen, outlining a complex spatial structure model. This is a defensive spell recorded in the magic notebook, Spirit Armor, which is a one-ring spell that can defend against knights. Attack, it can also resist incorporeal undead creatures, so it is a relatively practical spell.

Ivan Vincent completed the construction of this one-ring spell model in one go, but he felt that there was still room for improvement in this spell, so he improved the model structure and incorporated aerodynamics, etc., making the structure of this spell more complex. It is even comparable to a second-level spell. Of course, the defense is even more amazing, and it can withstand the powerful attack of a second-level knight.
