MTL - My Senpai Knows Magic-Chapter 244 seed
Theodore was not angry because of Zarathus's mockery, and said calmly: "Lord Zarathus, you are a great magus and a great philosopher, as long as you take back your blasphemous remarks, the temple can no longer hold you accountable. past.”
Chen Luo stood aside and watched. The Temple of Fire had killed one priest and seriously injured three others, so his strength was greatly damaged, and he could not be held accountable. It seemed that even the Temple was very afraid of Zarathus.
Think about it too, a philosopher who is at the peak of the great magister and has a huge influence in the mainland, even if the temple can destroy his **, it cannot destroy his thoughts.
"Dream." Zarathus said with a mocking smile on his face full of stubble: "I am dead, nailed in a coffin, and I will cry out in a rotten voice, "The gods are dead"! "
Theodore said with some regret: "Then please go back to the temple with me. If you want to resist, please don't be here."
"Why resist?"
Contrary to Chen Luo's expectations, Zarathus looked at Theodore, suddenly clenched his fists, then raised them flat, and said, "The new era has come, and the new era will definitely bring new changes. Your temple, witness the changes of the times with your own eyes..."
Magicians need to communicate magical elements through gestures, and their hands are bound, and there is no difference between a great magus and an ordinary person.
Two clerics ran out from behind Theodore, hurriedly tied Zarathus's hands, and let out a long sigh of relief.
Even if Zarathus was injured, he was still a great magus. No one knew about his rivalry with the four priests.
Although Zarathus was captured, he left with his head held high. Theodore looked at Chen Luo and asked, "Lord Blair, in the eyes of your scholars, do I really look stupid?"
Chen Luo said: "You will know when you try to advance to the Holy Magister."
"Promotion to the Holy Magister is risky." Theodore said honestly: "Most magicians will die during the promotion process, which is why the Holy Magister in the mainland is so rare."
He looked at the direction Zarathus left and said, "Even if he doesn't die, he will fall into madness like Lord Zarathus."
"Crazy?" Chen Luo shook his head and said, "I think he is more sober than anyone else."
Theodore didn't say anything else. He glanced at Chen Luo for the last time and said, "Goodbye, Your Excellency."
The matter of Zarathus was just a small episode for Chen Luo.
Theodore said that it is risky to be promoted to the Holy Magister, and the Great Magister is likely to die in the process. The Great Magister Mei Li may be worried about this, and has not gone to the temple.
There should be many great mages who have the same idea as her.
Zarathus changed his temperament after his failure to advance to the Holy Magister. Chen Luo felt that he must have discovered something, but unfortunately Theodore came too quickly. He should have asked him a few more questions just now...
In the capital, the place where Chen Luo appears always attracts a lot of attention, which is why Isabella likes to drag Alice to go shopping instead of him.
This is the headquarters of the Galaxy School, where scholars gather. During the short time Chen Luo stayed here, many scholars had already gathered around.
"Is that the sage of Zarathus?"
"He was taken away by the people of the temple!"
"He has blasphemed the gods, how could the temple let him go..."
"But we are scholars. Is it a sin for scholars to express their own opinions..."
…
Dozens of scholars were talking about the direction Theodore and others were leaving.
After the Weir scholar left the School of Truth, he joined the Galaxy School. He originally settled in Gaya, and later followed Chen Luo to Lorraine to assist him in the daily affairs of the school.
The strength of the Will University scholar is only a great magician, but he has a high prestige in the academic world. He stood behind Chen Luo and asked, "Is that your Lord Zarathus just now?"
Chen Luo nodded and said, "Yes."
"He was also taken away by the temple." Will's face showed curiosity. "People say he is crazy, I don't think so..."
Seeing that Chen Luo did not speak, he continued: "Recently, there are scholars who are studying magic and sorcery. Do you want to stop them?"
In the Continent of Divine Grace, scholars are forbidden to study witchcraft.
But since Chen Luo began to overthrow old ideas and introduce new theories, scholars' attitudes toward science have changed.
They didn't dare to doubt those things that have been passed down for thousands of years, and they will only go deeper and deeper along the wrong route.
It is different now. The two stones that landed in Gaya have greatly hurt the self-esteem of scholars.
The sages said that the heavier stones fell first than the lighter ones. They believed it, and then a single mistake would cost thousands of years. This is not an attitude towards science. Only the verified truth is the truth. or new theories.
Once the shackles of thinking are lifted, they can no longer be shackled.
They study celestial bodies, bacteria, and magic and sorcery, and then many scholars have found that sorcery and magic, except that one requires spells and gestures, and the other does not, there is not much difference.
They all use spiritual power to communicate with certain elements in the void, and even the form is similar. Why is one called magic and the other called witchcraft?
Magic is taught by the magic gods to the magician, witchcraft is given to the wizard by the dark goddess, the dark goddess is obviously better for her followers, the wizard does not need gestures and spells at all, not even rabbits, Only when magicians release magic, there are so many restrictions, which also causes them to be at a disadvantage when they encounter wizards.
Chen Luo shook his head and said to the Weir University scholar: "Academic development requires free soil. Without free soil, no beautiful flowers can bloom."
"The sage is right." The scholar of Will University nodded and said, "It seems that it is time to catch a few monsters for research..."
For scholars, as long as the seeds of curiosity in their hearts begin to germinate, they can no longer be contained. Chen Luo can't, and neither can the temple.
The emancipation of the mind has allowed more and more scholars to dare to challenge tradition and authority. There are always some who are not afraid of the temple. Although scholars also believe in magic gods, they believe in the truth that has been verified by themselves.
If they were asked to choose one of the two~www.novelbuddy.com~ they would choose the latter without hesitation.
Zarathus is in the temple, but his thoughts have long spread to all parts of the continent.
"The gods are dead" was not the only claim he made.
He believes that all magicians are imprisoned by the gods, otherwise, magicians should be like wizards, such as monsters, without spells and gestures, free to release magic.
Not only that, he also believes that there is no barrier between the Great Magister and the Holy Magister. When the spiritual power reaches a certain limit, all the Great Magisters can be promoted to the Holy Magister. What kind of gift from the gods is just a temple. Just a lie.
Zarathus is a thinker, and not everyone can understand his thoughts.
Most people thought he was crazy and sneered at his ideas, but his ideas still planted the seeds of doubt in the hearts of a small number of people.
These seeds are buried deep in their hearts, just waiting for a spring rain, they will break out of the ground, take root and sprout, a small seed may grow into a towering tree one day...
