The Rise of the Cemetery

The reply from the Thieves Guild didn't arrive until the two of them reached the middle of the Qibaira Kingdom.

In a hotel in a small town, Li Xun couldn't help but look at Siris after politely sending off the local Thieves Guild's branch president.

"Dagon?" Li Xun muttered to himself.

This time, the Thieves Guild arranged for Li Xun to participate in the qualifying round of the Dagon Magic Academy's high-level mage group as a free mage. It's a matter of reason.

For such a grand magic competition, the review and screening of qualifications must be extremely strict. I, a foreign black cat, may be able to arrange it near Brayland, but once I appear in such a public place that attracts everyone's attention, any cover-up and tricks will be destroyed. It will become a taint and handle in the future, so it's better to show your identity and participate in the competition as a traveler of the Principality of Novus.

It's just that in this way, I will inevitably be separated from Siris, and I will have to pass the identification as a high-level mage in a short period of time, otherwise I will not even meet the basic conditions for the competition.

As soon as the two of them discussed, the time was very tight. In less than a month, the preparations for the registration will be over. The first priority is to hurry up and recover your body and pass the appraisal. Therefore, the two immediately fine-tuned their itinerary and turned to a nearby city, where there was a mage branch that identified high-level mage qualifications.

Li Xun should have cultivated a relationship with Siris for such a rare opportunity to travel with the beauty, but unfortunately he owes too much money. He was promoted to level 12 early and mastered level 6 spells, so he can be regarded as an authentic high-level mage. But open the spell book to see, except for the Heroes of Might and Magic series of spells that can be mastered without learning, there are only 3 6th-level spells he learned by himself, petrification, anti-magic force field, and monster summoning.

On the one hand, it is because Tier 6 spells are difficult to obtain through ordinary means. Even the Novus Mage Association, which is not an internal member, cannot buy Tier 6 spells. On the other hand, Li Xun has only learned 3 of the 5 6th-level spells he searched through various means, and the other 2 spells have no way to figure out the way at all.

The evil results of Li Xun's rapid advancement have now appeared. The instability of his foundation has caused him to be serious now. For summoning and curse spells, he can still handle one or two, but for other types, he is simply poor and useless. Understood.

Although the magic of the Heroes of Invincibility system is easy to use, the effects of the 5th-level spells are almost as good as the 9th-level spells, but the cooling time of each one is extremely long, which is a typical battlefield spell, and it is a bit impractical for ordinary small-scale battles. The spells in the new world are highly targeted and have variable effects. They are most suitable for local multiplayer battles, but the system is complicated. Many subtleties are monopolized and collected by major organizations as unique skills, and it is difficult for the outside world to access them.

For Li Xun's trip to the Kingdom of Brayland this time, avoiding disaster is just one of the things, and the other thing is to make up for his shortcomings in magic. The heroes of the cemetery have gradually grown up, and the height they can reach is their upper limit. If they don't know how to make progress, then it will not be the cemetery that drags them down, but themselves.

Li Xun's careful Sieris didn't know, but she was impressed by his studiousness. A mage, the spellcaster whom everyone fears, must have profound and profound knowledge as the foundation, be supported by a down-to-earth spirit, coupled with a flexible and changeable research spirit. Legendary Mage.

Legendary mages are not the end of human mages, on the contrary, legendary mages are a real starting point for human mages. Only by becoming a legendary mage can human beings gain enough magical support to explore the vast outer space and alien world with a weak body, and repeat the peak state of human beings when the arcane empire expanded to the extreme.

Most of the many achievements and materials of the Arcane Empire period have been destroyed, but the arcanist has told people with his own experience, the heights that human beings can achieve. The vision of mankind has been raised to an unprecedented level. It is not terrible to lose data, and everything can be found again. This kind of racial self-confidence is the driving force that urges the successors to continue to move forward.

Therefore, taking advantage of the opportunity of hurrying, Li Xun, who had no thoughts, began to ask Xi Lisi for advice. After all, Siris is an orthodox mage trained by the system, and she has a solid grasp of various basic knowledge, so she temporarily cameo as Li Xun's teacher to make up for missing courses for him.

Either one question and one answer, or Xi Lisi explained some targeted books to Li Xun, and both parties gained a warm feeling from this interaction.

As the hired carriage traveled southward, the weather outside gradually changed.

The Principality of Novis is an area isolated by the Aveli Mountains and adjacent to the Gem Sea. The climate is warm and humid, and the snow season in winter is extremely short. It is a subtropical climate with high temperature and high humidity. It is already February, and as soon as you step out of the Avery Mountains and go south, the temperature will drop significantly. However, this is not a problem for the two mages. The constant magic protection on the mage robes can allow them to endure the influence of most harsh environments. As long as they do not enter specific extreme areas, climate change has little effect on them.

The identity of a mage is still the most awe-inspiring in the entire Klein Continent. A beautifully crafted mage badge is enough to pass anywhere in the mage's country.

Tom the coachman can be regarded as a veteran. When he was young, he traveled here and there and participated in various caravans. He is familiar with the terrain and the customs of various places. It was a real feast for the two mages to find some places with special scenery or special meals to stay overnight.

Five days later, a black four-wheeled carriage slowly drove into Kargath, the largest city in the Kalin Province of the Kingdom of Qibaira.

Kargas City is also an ancient city that has gone through hundreds of years, and there are obvious traces of the alternation of the old city and the new city in the pattern. The mage guild residence that Li Xun is going to is located on the edge of the old and new urban areas. It is a tall tower built of blue-gray rocks. The tower has 7 floors and soars into the sky. An important part of the magic defense of Kargath City.

After all, Qibaila is a country of mages, and its civilization openness is much higher than that of Novus Principality. The cooperation between major cities and mage guilds is quite close. This is from the fact that the city leaders can fully protect the most important magic defense facilities. You can find out by handing it over to the Mage Guild for operation.

Under the guidance of Siris, the two slowly stepped into the gate of the tower.

The lobby on the first floor still has a common layout. In the wide hall, there are receptionists in white tunics standing behind the counter in the corners. There are several corridors in the distance, and apprentices are constantly coming in and out. There are also some apprentices scattered in the hall, gathering in twos and threes to discuss something enthusiastically.

Somehow, this familiar scene made Xi Lisi show a sweet smile, and the sweetness of that smile made Li Xun unable to help but indulge in it.

The arrival of the two official mages also made the apprentices in the hall suddenly quiet, and when the two mages passed by, they all bowed and saluted.

Seeing the two sorcerers walking towards me, the two sorcerer apprentices, a man and a woman who were in charge of the reception, hurriedly adjusted their attire, and greeted politely first: "Welcome the two sorcerers, I don't know if there is anything I can do for you ?”

A strange look appeared on Siris's clear face, and she said, "I am Mage Siris, and I need to check the spell information in the library here. This is Mage Li Xun, and I need to re-appraise the Mage level."

The two apprentices discussed briefly, and the female apprentice led Siris to the stairs leading to the second floor. The library on the first floor is just superficial, and it is aimed at mage apprentices, foreign scholars, and nobles. For formal mages, you can go to the spell cabin on the second floor, where the spells and historical books that mages really need are stored.

The remaining male apprentice showed a polite smile, briefly introduced the situation of the mages stationed in the mage guild, and then asked: "Dear Master Li Xun, who do you plan to find as your appraiser?"

Li Xun frowned and looked at the basic situation of appraising mages presented by the apprentices, shook his head and said: "They are all bad, they are all just high-level mages, so they can't appraise me!"

The male apprentice's smile froze suddenly, and he blurted out, "Can't be identified? Dear Master Li Xun, don't you want to be identified as a level 7 mage?"

"Who told you that I want to identify a level 7 mage?" Li Xun rolled his eyes angrily: "I plan to identify a high-level mage. You should find me an archmage!"

The male apprentice opened his mouth so wide that he could almost stuff two eggs in it, and it took him a long time to straighten his tongue.

"This..." The male apprentice scratched his head in embarrassment, with an embarrassing look on his face: "I'm sorry, Master Li Xun, the archmage in this station is out of business, and may not be able to help you complete the high-level mage level appraisal. "

"What?" Li Xun's expression darkened immediately: "Could it be that such a large Mage Guild resident can't complete the high-level Mage level appraisal?"

"Dear Master Mage, don't worry! Your level can still be appraised. There will always be clear regulations for mages. Under normal circumstances, the level appraisal of high-level mages should be completed by the archmage, but in special cases, it can also be done by More than 2 high-level mages jointly completed it, do you think?"

Hearing this, Li Xun's expression softened a lot, and he waved his hands helplessly: "Just look at the arrangement, anyway, I hope to finish it as soon as possible."

After a lot of turmoil, Li Xun saw two high-ranking mages rushing over at the spell testing ground.

The two high-level mages showed considerable kindness and enthusiasm for their partners who might step into the same class. After seeing Li Xun's level 6 mage badge, both of them were thoughtful. At this critical moment, a sorcerer registered in Novus traveled thousands of miles to come here, and was so eager to identify a high-ranking sorcerer, the reason for which was self-evident.

It seems to be another free mage who wants to compete.
