MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 109 northern sky

Blow the flute and wait for the dragon. If it is in a fairy tale, the waiting time this time may be as long as a person's life. The plots of fairy tales are not all illogical, but sometimes they are deliberately exaggerated and humorous, but this kind of humor inevitably contains unexpected reality and cruelty.

One of the more obvious points is the same as I just said. The characters in fairy tales are often very simple. Their purpose, function, and thinking are simple. A small logical blind spot is enough for the protagonist of the mechanism to play vicious pirates or scary monster.

But in reality, the situation is often the opposite. The longer people live, the more they think, and the more they think, the farther away they are from those fairy tale characters, until they subconsciously apply their action logic to themselves, making pure motivations become complicated.

Cheese sometimes feels like a character in a fairy tale, because he has encountered too many incredible things and too many coincidences. But he also knows that the protagonist of no fairy tale will be a wizard with complex thoughts. If a person like him cannot become the leading protagonist in a fairy tale, I am afraid that only the villain who needs to be defeated can play the role.

In comparison, Yoni is more suitable as the protagonist. He is of the right age and has the ability to change into an animal, whether he is strong or weak. The only downside is Youni's past. He is not a child with empathy or adventurous spirit. It is Gray Robe's greatest expectation for his apprentices that his personality will gradually normalize and not become dark or distorted. The destructiveness of magic to the mind is especially evident in the caster, and he himself cannot be said to be immune to its effects.

Raise your hand, as if there is something in your hand. In the vision of magic power, Cheese can see the magic power leaking out from his palm like a cyclone. The magic power is empty, and the fatal damage caused by it is depleting the magic power in his body all the time. Even if the gap in the palm is blocked, new ones will appear in other parts of the body immediately. The problem is not at this level, but at a deeper level Root level.

That's why the mage concluded that it would be a matter of time before he lost his induction and mobilized his spells. He didn't cherish his capital as a spellcaster too much, and the shrewd debt collector didn't plan to let him go.

At this point in the matter, the gray robe didn't think there was any problem. If the emptiness had any effect on him, it was that it stimulated the cheese to plan his plan more carefully.

If time is limited, it is even more important to use it with maximum efficiency. Rather than falling into meaningless panic, cheese doesn't want to regret why he doesn't try more things now after losing the ability to perceive magic.

This kind of thinking is also the reason why he casts spells more frequently recently. The more spells he casts, the more chances he will try. This is slightly different from his restrained mentality of casting spells before. Putting down his hand, he turned the opened book again. He had read this posthumous work of the first gray robe countless times. It is no exaggeration to say that every word and even its position on the book had already been branded into the book. in mind.

But this is not enough. This book is not something that can be read only. There are other clues between the lines. Cheese can feel its existence, but he has been unable to grasp the real decryption method.

This thing cannot be unraveled by logic alone. What he lacks now is a certain reading angle and thinking. The existing habits have become restrictions, which frame the flow of his thoughts in a fixed river. It is not easy to get out of the river, let alone relying on brute force, even recklessness has become a part of the bottom of the river, the essence of this river is himself.

"Teacher." Youni shouted softly, pulling Cheese back to reality from the river of thoughts. He closed the book, turned to look at the apprentice, his young face was full of tension and anticipation.

Youni is not a person who has no curiosity about magic. It should be said that people in this world are more or less curious about magic, but curiosity is different from curiosity. Some curiosity is dangerous, some curiosity is urgent, and some are surprisingly easy to satisfy . According to Cheese's judgment, his apprentice does not have the curiosity of a big appetite, and Yoni's ambition as a spellcaster is very limited.

"Well, it's time. Let's start today's class." It is precisely because Yoni's curiosity is not too strong that the class is particularly important. People who are easy to satisfy tend to float on the surface and don't delve into the deep source of things that have been realized .

Although Cheese's courses are different every day and seem to be unsystematic, in fact there is only one theme. He wants to tell Youni that there are bonds between seemingly unrelated things in the world that are far stronger than spider silk. Opening up your horizons is much more important than simply teaching knowledge.

Time passed quickly, cheese is the kind of person who immediately becomes chattering when it comes to professions, after all, he will talk to himself when there is no one, and now he has an audience, the brain that includes the entire Gray Tower Library Nature can command the tongue to say many fascinating things.

Compared with the courses in the City of Laws, the gray robe's lectures are more casual, and often follow a topic and deviate from the whole paragraph, but for the current Uni, everything the teacher said is new and useful , worth remembering and pondering.

The morning class ended with the aroma of the food made by Pinwei. Among other things, the food for the past few days was very different from the previous trip. People who really know how to cook can make amazing dishes even in the wild. Pleasant food, and food greatly relieves the anxiety and confusion caused by waiting.

The three of them eating lunch were quite quiet. Youni was thinking about the course content in the morning, Cheese was thinking about how to continue in the afternoon, and Pinwei was thinking about the consumption of ingredients and the room for improvement. This silence is not depressing, accompanied by the sound of a small waterfall not far away, it is extraordinarily comfortable.

The gray robe held the wooden bowl and looked up at the sky. Intentionally or not, he was sitting facing north when he ate, so when he looked up at the sky and saw the black figure that was obviously not a bird, some impulse made him stand up suddenly, "Is it finally here?" ?”

The other two then turned their eyes to the northern sky, and saw that black shadow that was easily overlooked in the distance. Now it can only be roughly confirmed that the thing is shortening the distance with the three of them, but it is still too early to say whether its specific destination is here.

"Do you need me to pack things?" Pinwei naturally took Cheese's interrogative sentence as an affirmative sentence, thinking that the black shadow was the dragon who came to meet them.

But Cheese couldn't confirm it. His eyesight was not that good, so he shook his head slightly, "Not for now. Wait for him to get closer."

"Teacher, is there only one dragon you summoned?"

"Why do you ask?"

"That's right, maybe I was wrong, but it seems that there are other things in the sky."
