scepter

When Yannick woke up, his head was still groggy, but the symptoms of fatigue were much better. He tried to condense the mana in his palm, and found that the situation was much better than before. Gradually recovering, at this speed, if he doesn't need to heal others, he should be able to reach the full state of a low-level priest within half a month.

Over the past few days, he has deeply realized the true meaning of the saying that people have to bow their heads under the eaves. Because of the large number of those mages, he had to leave the peaceful town of Jed and live a life of being a cow and a horse. The hard life of the free healer, especially that Asur, tried to put him to death again and again.

Of course, Yannick is not a character who can be rubbed round and flattened by others, but the current situation can't help him swallowing his anger, and even spares no effort to heal other mages in order to deepen their good impression of him, thereby dividing their relationship with Azul, and preserving One's own life, but in the final analysis, in fact, one's own strength is not enough.

"you're awake."

Although Yannick still had his eyes closed, the voice on the other side had already detected his state.

Immediately, the jaw was pinched and lifted, forcing Yannick to open his eyes.

"I don't think disturbing people's sleep is not done by a gentleman." The priest looked at Master Chris with a calm expression on his face.

The mage who was close at hand came over: "Those people have gone to dig the magic mine, and they won't be able to come back for a while."

"So?" The priest reached out to shake off the other's hand that was pinching his chin, but he was held backhandedly. He froze for a moment, and the man's fingers had slid into his wrist, and he lifted his sleeve up, revealing the priest's hand. The arm that is not strong, and the mark of the priest on it.

Before Yannick could make any further reaction, the other party had let go of his hand. "Confirm your identity."

"This kind of lame reason gave you an excuse to moleste a priest?" Yannick raised his eyebrows, calmly.

He has always thought that this Chris is weird, he is clearly a high-level mage, but he wants to mix with a group of low-level mages, obviously they are in a cave full of magic mines, when other mages are crazy about it, The other party was indifferent, and instead said irrelevant things to him here.

More importantly, this Chris's attitude towards him is also very different from other mages.Not to mention Azul, his aggressiveness and extremes also represent the thoughts of a large part of the mages in this continent. Others, like Aphra and Lily, are much gentler, but after all, they have a little precaution. After all, They are still people of two camps.

But Chris is different, Yannick can often feel his gaze on himself, as if it is a kind of evil taste with observation.

Chris suddenly asked, "Are you interested in cooperating with me?"

Yannick was taken aback, unable to figure out his train of thought: "What is the cooperation?"

"I will provide you with shelter, and you will restore the system and principles of light magic for me, including magic display and communication."

"You want to learn light magic?" Yannick was very surprised. "The priest's light magic and the mage's elemental magic are two completely different systems, and the two seem to be incompatible."

"People who say such things have never really understood magic." Chris said coldly, "Magic is a kind of magical element, and the entire continent has this magical element, whether it is the extension of the Holy See's inspiration from light The light magic that comes out is still the four natural elements of the magician's climate, water and fire."

The priest was vaguely aware of the knowledge he had always wanted to know, and it seemed that a window had been opened just because of these words. Compared with Aphra and the others, of course the high-level mage in front of him was more capable of answering all the questions in his heart.

"Why did you confirm my identity just now?" Yannick started another topic.

Chris: "Before you, they caught another priest."

Yannick: "And then?"

Chris: "Then he cursed, refused to cooperate, was tied up and burned to death by Azul."

Yannick: "..."

Chris: "So, by comparison, you seem very current."

Yannick: "Thank you for the compliment."

Chris: "But you're already mine, so it doesn't matter if you flirt with them."

Yannick: "...When did I become yours?"

Chris gave him a strange look: "Didn't I already tell you when I rescued you from the claws of the Harpy?"

Yannick: "..." The problem is that I didn't agree at all, okay?

He almost couldn't maintain the smile on his face, calmed himself down, and said: "I have a request, regarding the exchange conditions just now, to exchange your protection for me with something else, I also want to understand all the principles of elemental magic, and how about Yes, when I ask you questions about magic, you cannot refuse to answer. That is to say, we should be more frank with each other when it comes to communicating about magic.”

"You don't need my protection?" Chris's voice was still calm, but he was a little surprised.

"Since we are partners, you will naturally guarantee my safety during the cooperation period, won't you, Master Mage?" The priest smiled, which seemed a bit cunning to Chris.

"I don't want anyone to know about our partnership, we need to make a contract."

It makes sense.Yannick sat up a little straighter, "What's the content?"

"There are two types. The first is the teacher-student contract. The teacher has the obligation to protect the students, but at the same time the students cannot betray the teacher. Teachers and students share knowledge with each other."

"What about the second?"

"You and I have an equal relationship, and we swear to be loyal to each other forever, not to betray, not to hide anything."

The priest thought to himself that something sounded wrong, but he didn't think too much about it, "Is there no other choice?"

"These two are the most stable, and those temporary contracts are not secure." The mage said calmly.

The priest thought for a while: "Whether the teacher-student contract is permanent or can it be canceled when the student leaves the teacher."

"If the student's ability is stronger than the teacher's, the contract will be automatically terminated."

Yannick frowned slightly, and found a loophole: "Then this kind of contract should be established between mages and mages, or between priests and priests? If the magic system is different, how can we judge whether the student is stronger than the teacher?"

The mage said indifferently: "Your understanding of magic is too shallow. There is no such thing as a profession in magic itself. Even the dark magic, which the Holy See hates, comes from elements. Elements are the origin of all magic."

Yannick's heart moved, he ignored his harsh criticism, and quickly took his words: "You mean, a person's strength depends on whether the magic element in his body is strong?"

"The strength of the magic element is just the foundation. The talent to use magic skillfully, and the reaction to the enemy are equally important. At the level of Azul and the others, even a harpy without wisdom can't deal with it." , that is to say, go to the grass to cast fire spells on flying insects."

Flying insects are the most common and lowest insects in the Olin Continent, and they can be seen everywhere in the grass and forests.

"..." The priest finally understood that this mage Chris was attacking in an all-round and indiscriminate manner, regardless of the enemy or the friend.

However, the other party's knowledge and opinions convinced him at the same time. Yannick knew very well that the memory of the body he inherited now had a shallow understanding of magic, otherwise he would not have fallen to the present level, even if the contract The content sounds harsh, and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages for me now.

Yannick had a hunch that he would learn a lot from this person, even if the other person was a mage rather than a priest.

"Okay, I'll choose the first type of contract."

Chris didn't delay for a moment, and as soon as his words fell, he read the continuous spell from his mouth. The deep tone was long and mysterious. It belonged to the magic system of the mage, and Yannick tried his best to understand it. Just memorized a word or two, and that was of no use at all - it made him all the more aware of the importance of magical learning.As an unlucky priest, he not only has to face threats from the mage camp, but also faces pursuit from the priest camp.

Just as he was thinking about it, his hand was tightly held by someone, "read it to me, I swear by the gods, please witness the stars in the sky, I, Edward Chris Sfleet and... what's your name ?”

Yannick could hardly restrain the corners of his mouth from twitching, "Yanick Hill."

"Forge a teacher-student contract with Yanik Hill. From then on, I will protect him in the name of a teacher, and he cannot betray me."

Yannick changed the oath slightly and read it along with it.

The golden light is divided into two strands, and the ribbon-like trajectory spreads upwards along the intersection of the two people, until it enters the eyebrows of the two. Yannick only feels that something between the eyebrows ran in, and disappeared at any time no trace.

"Teacher," it feels good to have personal safety guaranteed.Yannick breathed a sigh of relief, and changed his name in a gracious manner. "I'm very surprised, there are so many priests, why did you find me?"

Chris is a high-level mage. He has reached a relatively high level in magic, but he doesn't want to follow the path of those senior mages and continue to walk on the road of elemental magic like them. He hopes to learn more , Only in this way can we create and even change more, which requires an in-depth understanding of the priest's magic system.

This is knowledge that cannot be obtained from books, because the books are too theoretical. Basically, Chris has read all the classics about light magic, but Chris still has many questions to communicate with a priest face to face. Real knowledge comes from practice.

However, it is impossible for those priests with rich knowledge and powerful mana to cooperate with a mage, and those weak ones, Chris doesn't like them at all. He grows on the top of his head, and knows how to assess the situation, and is willing to actively cooperate with him. His achievements in the future should not be small, so from all aspects, he should be a good candidate.

But Chris was too lazy to explain so much, and said directly: "I don't like other people."

The priest raised his eyebrows, "Then, can you tell me about the second type of contract you asked me to choose just now, you and I are equal, and we swear to be loyal to each other forever, not to betray, not to hide anything. What is that?"

Chris: "Oh, that's a partnership contract."

Yannick: "..."

Is this teacher too unreliable? ?Can he return it!

The author has something to say:

The "adding when you think about it" in the copywriting is about adding when you think about it, not adding when you think about it... 2 attacks are enough, any more will not only kill the reader, but also the author.
