Great Elf Sage

Extraordinary people are generally called mystics or mysterious professionals on the continent of Aslan. .

For the elites who stand in the upper echelons of society, the term ‘mystics’ represents a powerful group that possesses supernatural powers and is a vital link in the social power structure;

But for ordinary people at the bottom of society, the meaning represented by this group that has mastered inhuman power is more powerful, unknown, mysterious and fearful. This is where the word "mysterious" originally came from.

Therefore, after showing the strength of the mysterious professional, the one-eyed village chief was frightened by the supernatural phenomena and had no vision to judge whether he was powerful or not. In his mind, Julian and Shana were different from the legendary ones who could easily destroy a house. The powerful mystic drew the equal sign.

Seeing that the village chief's attitude became a little reserved and the surrounding slum dwellers also looked in awe, Julian and Shana suddenly realized that they were already the mysterious and powerful inhuman beings in the stories they heard when they were children.

Although as low-level magicians, their actual strength is not much stronger than those of middle-level adventurers, the innate superiority of magic in mastering supernatural power makes them seem to be better than those who need to reach middle- and high-level to manifest supernatural powers. The phenomenal mystic profession is much more bluffing.

"Mr. Village Chief, can you tell us the location of the Demon Pig's lair?"

Although Julian was a little helpless about the change in the village chief's attitude, he had no intention of staying here any longer and did not explain anything. Getting the information as early as possible was the most important thing.

"Yes, yes, sir, you don't need to call me sir, just call me Karen..."

Chief Karen is a rare 'educated person' in the slums, and he uses poor honorifics to communicate.

"...The Demon Pig's lair is in the center of the college area to the west of the Siris ruins. It's the tallest pile of building ruins. It's easy to spot."

Julian nodded, took out three silver coins and handed them to the Karen village chief as reward.

Although the village chief can say a few honorifics, he is a poor man after all. One silver coin is enough to buy a decent coarse cloth for his son, so that he can find a serious job in the city, and he can also get back a lot of copper coins. .

And three silver coins can really help their village escape from the ruins of the slums.

So with his eyes shining, he quickly took the silver coins, stuffed them into his arms, and looked warily at the greedy poor people around him.

Julian, who didn't notice this, was about to turn around and leave when he saw the dead tree burned by magic, and the flames on it gradually spread outward.

So he made a fist with his right hand and put it between his eyebrows. While communicating the basic spells in the sea of ​​consciousness, he recited a mantra in a low voice:

"Invisible form, the foundation that permeates the world, one of the four cornerstones of the existence of all things, sourceless water, gather in my name."

A dense cloud of water mist quickly condensed and rotated around the flame, and the flame was quickly extinguished by the cyclonic movement of water mist.

The second ring of magic——‘Whirl of Water Mist’.

The poor people who were staring at the village chief greedily were startled by Julian's magic, thinking that he was warning them and others, so they reluctantly looked away from the village chief.

Although the actual use of this magic is not great, and it is not offensive, for the ignorant poor people, its visual effect is no weaker than Shana's twin small fireballs.

Julian, who was completely unaware that he had rescued the village chief unconsciously, turned to Shana after putting out the fire and said:

"Let's go!"

"Ok!"

Shana followed Julian with a smile on her lips.

She knew that Julian probably didn't even notice that the village chief was almost in crisis because of him.

But she didn't remind Julian because she didn't want to see Julian fall into self-blame.

The two of them drifted away. Many of the slum dwellers surrounding here struggled to snatch a few silver coins from the village chief. However, the charred remains of the dead trees nearby and the water mist that had not completely dissipated finally made them feel sad. The fear of the mystic outweighed the desire.

Among the crowd that gradually dispersed, Joss breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his father was finally out of the crisis, and hurriedly ran towards him.

"Dad, quickly, let's get out of here first!"

When the head of Kelen Village saw Joss, his nervous expression suddenly relaxed, then collapsed again, and he drank:

"Joss, what are you doing here? Don't you know how dangerous it was just now!"

Four or five years ago, Jos might have contradicted his preaching father, but after experiencing the ups and downs of life in the past few years, he has learned to be considerate of his father.

"Yes, yes, I was wrong! Don't talk about this now, we have to leave here quickly, otherwise it will be terrible if Ed and the others hear the news and come over! Those idiot-like lunatics don't understand what the Mysterious One is. "

The village chief, who was reminded by Joey, also forgot to preach, nodded and said:

"That's right, we have to go back to the village quickly... No! We can't stay in this ruins any longer. Let's get everyone together and go directly to the city!"

Anyway, people in such ruined slums are very mobile, and this is not the first time they have moved.

The two said no more and hurriedly ran towards the village.

But when Joss left, he couldn't help but look back at the direction where Julian and Shana entered the jungle area.

If I could have such power...

……

Julian and Shana were now almost deep into the jungle area of ​​Siris Ruins.

"I really don't know if there is anything that even Mr. John can't solve, but requires the help of the two of us."

Julian said with some confusion.

"Maybe Mr. John has other important things to deal with first and can't take care of this, so we need to solve it; maybe the things here need magic to solve, who knows."

Shana guessed casually.

"It is also possible that Mr. John is training those magic apprentices, so we are asked to solve some small incidents. And since the teacher allows us to participate in this incident, it means that the matter is within our capabilities!"

Julian added excitedly.

John had left Gandalf's magic tower half a year ago and was traveling around the United Kingdom while looking for magician candidates with excellent magical adaptability.

Through the magic seal that Nolan left on the 'Breath of Frost', John informed that he had found several magic apprentice candidates with good adaptability to magic power and sufficient 'awakening'. Currently, several of these candidates have been selected. Follow John and learn basic magic knowledge while exercising.

In addition, after several months of travel, John, who has greatly improved his strength, has entered many Jedi places that he did not dare to approach in the past, and solved many troubles that troubled the local people. The reputation of the "Frost Knight" gradually spread around the world, and he had a vague and senior reputation. A trend comparable to that of gold medal adventurer 'Alpine Eagle' Ron.

But not everything John encounters will be involved.

After all, John is not one of those paladins or ascetics who believe in dogma and need to practice their beliefs with actions. John is too lazy to solve some small things or things that cannot touch him by himself.

Therefore, in the news that John sent back through the magic seal, there were also a lot of events that he encountered but did not pay attention to that may be related to magic.

The Demon Pig's Lair in the ruins of Siris was one such event that John judged to be related to magic.

But unlike the information sent back in the past, this time the information about the Demon Pig's Lair was marked by John with the words 'recommended exploration'. Therefore, Julian and Shana, whose magic practice had reached a bottleneck due to the problem of spiritual power ladder, were 'Gandalf' was sent out to explore the demon pig's lair.

"Why is a magical beast's lair related to magic? Is the magic pig the kind of extraordinary creature that the teacher said was born with a body structure similar to magic? Or is there a clue to extraordinary artifacts here?"

As a former low-level adventurer, Julian was very dedicated and motivated for his first mission after more than half a year.

Shana was also very happy, but what she was happy about was being able to go out and walk around, and finally being able to live a life of adventure with Julian.

……
