Wizard From Afar

Chapter 17



On the cold wall, the air was filled with the smell of parchment and sawdust decay. The dark wooden frame was filled with books. The apprentices in dark robes quietly shuttled and stopped in front of bookcases. However, in addition to turning the pages, there was only a slight sound of breathing floating in their ears.

Silent and orderly, like a church, this is the evaluation given by Loren from the bottom of his heart.

An apprentice passed by him constantly, and even Yu guangluo Lun, who was only in the corner of his eye, could detect the suspicious eyes of the other party. The college is not big, so most of the apprentices know each other. Of course, their appearance will be relatively abrupt. He can even hear the conversation deliberately lowering his voice behind him and the pointing behind him.

If there is time, Loren doesn\'t mind pretending to be an ignorant new apprentice, satisfying the apprentices\' vanity with one or two small problems, and then mixing into their circle. After all, this can make it much more convenient for him to be in this college in the future.

But unfortunately, what he lacks most now is time, so Loren is too lazy to pay attention to these people.

For three full days after the day when he got ayin\'s notes, Loren spent his time on continuing to build and practice the spell. He felt that his spiritual palace still had a lot of room to play. In addition, the threat coefficient of the magic he tried was infinitely close to zero, so Loren began to try to deduce the spell in the end.

Spells and magic are the regularization of void power, just like turning symbols into words and illusions into reality. Therefore, if you can take apart its structure step by step according to the order of spells and deduce the principle of its formation, you can strengthen your understanding of emptiness, which is much faster than simple learning.

However, the speed of progress is still difficult to satisfy him. The little wizard is still specialized in alchemy. He is not good at mystics or spells, and it is difficult to help Loren too much. So he thought of coming to the library to try his luck and find a "pretentious genius" by the way.

Although the other party is not easy to get along with, considering that he has demands from others, as long as his vanity is satisfied as much as possible, it doesn\'t seem to be particularly difficult to communicate.

"What\'s the announcement?"

The young wizard lay lazily in the chair. Obviously, he already knew who the next person was, so he deliberately used this tone of "refusing and welcoming".

For a moment, Loren suddenly wanted to roll his eyes like ayin. But he restrained this irrational impulse: "nothing, just some questions about mystics, no big deal."

"However, since Isaac, you are so busy now..." Loren also deliberately picked it up: "then maybe I should go to ain."

"Ain?!" Isaac, who had just been leisurely, immediately jumped up: "what are you going to do with AIN? I\'m the smartest of our three apprentices!"

"And find Ayn Rand to learn occult science? You might as well try to teach the rabbit to speak human words. The latter seems to have a certain feasibility!" the angry Isaac looked at Lauren\'s joking expression and immediately vented his anger: "well, if you want to ask anything, just ask."

"It\'s roughly like this. I\'ve been trying to analyze its structure through the backstepping spell recently, and then..."

"To decipher its principle and pattern!" Isaac finished his words directly before Loren, and the young wizard brightened his eyes: "yes, why didn\'t I think of such a good way to learn occult science before? Maybe it\'s because I\'m too smart to use it at all?"

"And this method is also of little use to those brainless potatoes. It\'s too advanced for them." pointing to the apprentices gathered in the distance, Isaac said excitedly, "but it\'s still a very interesting way. Is there any problem? You must have a problem, right?"

"It\'s still too slow. I need more books on emptiness, more details on how to use the power of emptiness." Loren said, "of course... It\'s just academic."

"Well... So you need a good librarian to help you find these documents, and then someone who can answer your questions." Isaac nodded seriously, and then immediately stood up: "but now that I\'m here, you don\'t need any!"

"Be quick and start, brother Loren. We have a whole afternoon to solve your little problems!"

Looking at the people who had been rummaging on the distant bookshelves, the smiling Loren couldn\'t help thinking of what some people had said... What the martyrs wanted most was to die generously; What Isaac Grantham, a pretentious man, craves most is to be needed by others, otherwise he will not find a sense of existence.

As long as the bait is thrown down, he can\'t wait to rush up and solve all the processes and troubles for himself, and then wait for his incredible expression of surprise like a dog wagging its tail.

At the moment, Isaac has completely lost his lazy appearance. Like an accurate hound, he went to the predetermined bookcase, took the required book, and then turned to the next one. It was like a map with a route floating in front of him, telling him the exact location of each book.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Isaac returned to the original point and dropped a thick volume in front of Loren: "although you haven\'t started reading, I can tell you that so far no wizard has ever used a method similar to yours to learn occult science."

"But in some literature on incantation, some wizards did use similar methods to analyze incantations in the past, but most of them were only applicable to low-level spells." before Loren could speak, Isaac picked up the file and turned it to the page for him: "I think it may be of some reference significance to you."

"Wait... Have you read all the books in this library?" Lauren asked tentatively.

"I don\'t think your rhetoric is accurate at all." Isaac snorted modestly: "in my way, all the knowledge in this room, I can know exactly which bookcase it is hidden in and the page of which book. If not, who must have taken it or lost it!"

"Sorry..." Lauren smiled apologetically. He suddenly realized that this might be a great opportunity, but he couldn\'t be too abrupt. He had to take the initiative to tell himself when the other party didn\'t pay attention.

The advantage of having a genius around is that the other party only needs a few words to make the problems that the apprentices racked their brains as simple as one plus one equals two, and Isaac\'s super memory also saves Loren\'s time to turn the book. Even in the field of incantation, which the other party was not good at, Isaac understood better than ayin.

That\'s why the little wizard kept saying that he was a pretentious bastard, but he had to admit that each other\'s talent really exceeded himself. According to Loren\'s understanding, I\'m afraid the guy in front of him who speaks faster than he turns the book doesn\'t know anything about human and worldly wisdom. He may have deliberately pretended to be like this.

But what\'s the problem? Is Ayn Rand really so naive that there is no secret? So this kind of thing doesn\'t matter at all. As long as the other party can really help himself, Loren doesn\'t care whether the other party is really the same.

Especially he is not a guy who looks the same.

"In a word, although this method of pushing back the spell structure is good, its defects are also obvious. A simple low-order spell is hardly helpful to you, but it just wastes this wonderful attention." Isaac showed a difficult expression for the first time: "maybe this is one of the reasons why those incompetent spell casters can only be a juggler all their life."

"So... Do you know a high-level spell?" Lauren said "inadvertently".
