Ultimate Assassin System

Are you interested in taxes?

No.

One day, while Tang En was scanning the books, Josiah came to the library to chat with him again.

But what you have in your hand is the imperial tax regulations.

Uh, I just flipped through this

Josiah blinked and said, Oh, but this book is just for show. There are more than fifty kinds of taxes stipulated in it, but there are nearly a hundred kinds of taxes in Rhine City!

That's it, I think tax matters need a hearing or something, let's discuss it...

Hearings?

Just choose some taxpayers to discuss, so it seems democratic...

Josiah's eyes lit up obviously: Hey, democracy... this word is good. Does it mean that the people are free to decide?

Uh, this word has a broad meaning, and I won't be able to explain it clearly for a while. You should figure it out yourself first. Tang En looked enigmatic. Damn, I've been fooling around too much... How can I answer you? I have always brought cheat sheets into the exam room for ideological and political exams since I was a child...

Well, I know what you mean. If you understand it yourself, you will understand it deeper, right?

Yes. So, for things like chatting, you need to find a smart person. When you can't continue, the other party will make up for it on their own.

Josiah had no doubts about him, and said solemnly: Thank you, Tang. I really benefited a lot from talking with you. The day before yesterday you said that you didn't belong to this school. I'm curious. What do you do? You have a good mind. It’s profound, even the teachers in the academy can’t compare to it.”

Uh, Tang En was stunned, his mind spinning: I... I, I sent people to another place...

Josiah frowned and thought: Send people to another place...the captain? The coachman?

The coachman... Well, you can travel thousands of miles after reading thousands of books! Tang En breathed a sigh of relief.

Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles... I have learned again, Tang, you are really insightful. Josiah looked sincerely admiring.

Hehe, it's okay, it's okay...Then what do you do, student? Tang En laughed dryly, and quickly changed the subject.

Yeah, don't underestimate me, I'm still a junior magician.

Magician? Tang En's heart moved: It's amazing, I'm quite curious about magic. But the books here don't seem to involve much.

The important magic books are on the second floor. Generally, only teachers can go in. I can go in, but I can't take you... Josiah said embarrassedly.

That's it, it doesn't matter. I'm just curious, just tell me briefly. Tang En seized a rare opportunity to learn about magic, so naturally he didn't want to miss it.

Josiah: That's no problem, you have taught me a lot these days, how do I want to repay you...

After a pause, he continued: There are magical elements around us all the time. And magicians...

Uh, wait a minute, what are magic elements?

You haven't heard of magic elements? Well, let me tell you from the beginning.

…………

Josiah is undoubtedly a qualified teacher. After several hours of detailed lectures, Tang En finally had a preliminary understanding of the magic of the other world.

According to the other world, the air here contains a lot of magical elements such as gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. If someone senses this element, congratulations, you have the potential to be a magician.

The next step is to induce these magical elements into the body through meditation. When a certain amount of magical elements are gathered in the body, magic can be cast through specific incantations and gestures.

In summary, magic doesn't seem to be difficult to learn.

But first of all, you need to know the status quo, that is, out of 10,000 people, there are only a dozen or so, and the probability is almost one in a thousand.

And after passing the first threshold, one must be able to smoothly attract magic elements into the body. The probability of this is high, about one in two.

In general, among ten thousand people, there are five people who can truly become senior magicians.

It is precisely because of the rarity of magicians that the five or six people selected will have a bright future regardless of their backgrounds.

Any country or noble will entertain them with the greatest sincerity.

If a high-level magician is willing to serve any force and build a mage tower in its territory. Then during the time the magician exists, this force will have an extra layer of strong protection. It can be said that there is absolutely no problem with Fu Yi for several generations.

Take Josiah, for example, who came from a minor noble family. The family management is not good, and in her father's generation, the family's decline is inevitable. If nothing unexpected happens, her family's noble title will also be taken back by the empire in the next generation.

But since Josiah was confirmed to have the potential of a magician, and successfully became a junior water magician. The major families in the Rhine City threw olive branches one after another, and her family's status rose rapidly, and now she has become a rising star in the aristocratic circle of the Rhine City.

The reason why magicians are so valued is rooted in the powerful power of magic.

According to Josiah, if a great magician is given enough distance and time, he can destroy a hundred cavalry brigade with a wave of his hand.

The great magician is of course not the highest level of a magician. In another world, magicians are divided into 8 levels: magic apprentice, junior magician, intermediate magician, advanced magician, great magician, magister, and great magister , Holy Magister.

In addition to magic, Dunn also took the opportunity to learn about grudges from Josiah.

Josiah's understanding of fighting qi is not as systematic as that of magic. She only knows that there are many warriors who practice fighting qi.

Dou Qi is stimulated through continuous exercise of the body. If one succeeds in learning, one can mobilize external power and turn it into one's own use when one becomes a prefecture-level warrior.

The power of grudge is also impressive, with an explosive power. If it is within close range, the magician does not dare to underestimate it.

Fighting Qi is the same as magic, and it is also divided into 8 levels: trainee warrior, junior warrior, intermediate warrior, senior warrior, earth-level warrior, air-level warrior, sky-level warrior, and martial saint.

Finally, Josiah compares magicians and warriors.

Generally speaking, in the early stage, magicians of the same level have a great advantage over warriors.

When the mage reaches the intermediate level and can support the magic shield, the close threat of the warrior is weakened, and this advantage is even greater.

Only after the samurai reaches a high level can he have the long-range attack of releasing fighting spirit. And senior magicians of the same level can already perform flying. After reaching a certain height, the samurai can only be a target.

Warriors really pose a threat to magicians when they reach the realm of space-level warriors. Warriors in this realm can stand in the void. In the fight against the Magic Society, he will not be at a clear disadvantage.

Generally speaking, the advantages of magicians are more obvious.

Of course, the magician must keep in mind that it is best not to let the samurai get close.

…………

After listening to Josiah's narration, Tang En felt a chill in his heart.

The various killing techniques he has learned are aimed at ordinary people, and he doesn't know if these killing techniques can still work when facing warriors and magicians.

Even if it works, it must be discounted... So, what did he rely on to kill Sethman? Tang En fell into deep thought.

Hi, Josiah, so you are here, so I can easily find you. A well-dressed and handsome young man came to the door of the library.

Hi, Vincent. Compared to Vincent's enthusiasm, Josiah seemed a little flat.

Huh, who is this? Wen Sen asked with a smile when he saw Tang En beside Josiah.

Twain, although it was easy to see that the smile was fake, but for the sake of free ride, Tang En still responded politely.

Oh, hello, Tang En. My name is Derk-Vinson, just call me Vincent.

Josiah: Vincent, what do you want from me?

It's nothing, I'm here to invite you to lunch...

Uh, let's talk first. I still have something to do, so don't bother me. He and the two nodded, and Tang En left the library.

Tang En was not in a hurry to leave the academy, he found a remote stone chair and sat down, thinking about the killer system in his heart.

Inside the space, the originally empty hall now has rows of antique bookshelves. The old housekeeper was lying on a rattan wooden couch at this time, wearing a reading glasses, reading a book intently, and the small red clay teapot next to him was filled with wisps of tea fragrance.

Seeing Tang En come in, the old butler covered the book on the wooden table next to him, picked up the teapot and took a sip of tea.

Swipe at will, The Anthology of Bardic Poems...

Tang En suddenly became confused. He couldn't connect the old butler who was proficient in killing techniques with the poet.

But he didn't have time to think about these questions right now, so he said anxiously, Old butler, did you hear what Josiah said just now?

I heard it, what's the matter?

What's the matter? Tang En frowned and said, Isn't this obvious? The power of magic and grudge is too strong. Even if I am proficient in all killing techniques, it won't work. You can't tell me to stab a shield with a dagger The mage...

The old housekeeper put down the teapot unhurriedly and said, I thought it was some kind of problem. You underestimate the system too much. After you upgrade, everything will be clear.

Really? Could it be that I have this kind of power after leveling up? Uh, it can't be internal power... Nine Suns Divine Art? Nine Yins Manual? Anyway, as long as it's not the Sunflower Canon, I'm not greedy...

The corners of the old butler's eyes twitched: You have read too many yy novels. If you have free time, read more poetry anthologies to cultivate yourself.

...Uh, speaking of so many books, can you read them all? Tang En looked at the rows of bookshelves, which were the fruits of his hard work in the past few days.

The old housekeeper said indifferently: If you mean the content of the text, you have already read it.

Scary! Tang En was startled, and instantly rolled his eyes: You can always brag, I haven't seen you turn the pages of a collection of poems for a long time, and you have finished reading so many books?

Every time the system enters a book, the text in it will be sent to me as soon as possible. But it's just text. You have to know that some text not only tells things, but also contains deep meaning, which needs to be savored carefully.

Like a collection of poems?

Yes. Well, go out and find a way to complete the task quickly, and don't disturb my reading.

After finishing speaking, the old butler waved Tang En out of the system.
