Chapter 233 Dui Zi
"Duke, what are you talking about coming to Offata?" The shell wise man was suspended in front of Duke, his body outlined by fluorescent light emitting a little light.
It is the tower spirit of the Arcane Supreme Tower, named Shell, affectionately called the Shell Wise Man by arcanists, and is said to be the most ancient ancient spirit.
No.
To be precise, it should be a group of ancient spirits.
"I want to look up information in Offa Tower, and I ask the shell wise man to guide me to the library." Duke Daoming came.
"Which information do you want to consult?" asked the shell wise man.
"Information about the Ring of Projection, especially information about alchemy materials."
"Follow me, please." The shell wise man gently shook his flat body, with symmetrical stripes on both sides of his body, rippling like a skirt.
Swim gently to the spiritual ladder.
Duke, who was following it, looked at the shell and felt that the shell wise man was like a colorful jellyfish in the shape of a big round cake.
Wait a while, there is a ding dong.
The door to the spirit ladder opens.
A middle-aged arcane mage walked out. The arcanist seemed to recognize Duke, nodded slightly to Duke, and then left quickly without intending to say hello.
Although he didn't know the other party, Duke also nodded in response.
And saw that in front of the arcanist, there was also a colorful big round jellyfish floating, which was exactly the same as the shell wise man in front of him.
no doubt.
That's shell wise too.
Seemingly noticing Duke's gaze, the shell sage shook his body slightly, and the voice rang directly beside Duke's ear: "That's me too."
"I understand, Shell Wise." Duke responded with a smile.
Involuntarily emerged in my mind, the information that I had asked someone before: "Kai... the wise man is the only ancient spirit in the soup of the shell!"
Shell soup.
This is the oldest phantom in ancient times that Duke just learned.
Spirituality is like a tide that ebbs and flows. When the tide rises, everything flourishes, and when the tide ebbs, everything withers. A rise and fall is a spiritual era.
The life of each spiritual age may leave its mark on the spiritual spring when the spirituality is exhausted. Then, under the impetus of some kind of opportunity, the imprint will be played again, as if returning to the original spiritual age, this is the phantom of the ancient era.
"The oldest phantom of the ancient era is not the ocean of insects that I experienced in Cuihai Valley, but the soup of shells that only happened in Lake Jingagejing..."
There are very few records about the soup of the shell. Only the arcanist who has seen the wise man of the shell can learn a thing or two from the wise man of the shell.
After all, Lake Whale Uta has been developed by human beings, and there will never be phantoms of ancient times such as Ke no Yu.
It is said.
Kakinoyu lived in an era where the world was like a pot of boiling soup.
There are countless tiny animals with shells living in the soup water, without wisdom and soul.
They are a group of the most primitive animals, except for their ability to move, they are not fundamentally different from those plants. After the spiritual age withered, most of these primitive tiny shellfish were obliterated by time, leaving only a little bit of residual spirituality.
It is this little bit of residual spirituality that, after being imprinted by the spiritual spring, continuously merged with each other, and finally gave birth to the only ancient spirit of shell soup—the shell wise man.
"A shell is a collection of small shellfish."
"So it gathers a shell wise man, and scattered is a group of shell wise men."
Duke followed the shell wise man to the hundreds of floors while recalling the information about the shell wise man.
While walking, the shell wise man chatted with Duke: "Ofa Tower has a lot of books, but a lot of knowledge about spiritual mysteries cannot be recorded by books alone. It needs to be preserved by many means, which is time-consuming and laborious."
"I know this. I have read almost all of the library in the Faling Pagoda in Shenjiao City. I have learned too little spiritual knowledge."
"Now you have invented film and television technology to record light and shadow in a small slide card, which has given a lot of inspiration to the arcane mages in the tower. They are discussing the use of film and television technology to store spiritual arcana knowledge, and soon these libraries will change."
The wise man's tone was soft, but Duke could still hear a trace of loneliness.
Perhaps for the shell wise, looking at Offata's full collection of books is happiness, but now the collection of books may become a piece of spiritual cards, making it sad.
Duke did not console it.
An ancient creature who has lived for an unknown number of times probably does not need human beings to comfort it, how to get out of emotions.
He just said: "Yes, change often starts from the smallest, maybe a brand new era is beckoning us."
"You are full of confidence." Shell wise man said.
"You can see it."
"Duke, can you tell me why you are so confident in the coming new era?" the wise man asked curiously.
Duke smiled slightly and said: "Maybe spirituality is guiding me. From the tall buildings and magnificent instruments, I saw the beginning of a new era. Shell wise man, if the development of human beings is divided into many eras, then this should be called the grand arcana era."
"The Era of Grand Arcana?"
"Yeah, the barbaric exploration of the arcane law continues to push the society forward, ushering in such a vigorous era, I call it the grand arcane era."
"What about the new era?"
"As for the new age, I call it the age of subtle spirituality."
The shell wise man chewed on the "Dongwei Spirituality", and quickly flapped his sides: "Very interesting statement, Duke, I want to hear your description of the Dongwei Spirituality era soon."
"I can't describe it in words."
"Why?"
"But I will use actions to realize it bit by bit, shell wise man, wait with peace of mind, you will soon see the era of spirituality." Duke's eyes were firm, and he did not waver in the coming new era.
The voice of the shell wise man brought a hint of cheerful emotion: "Time is an insignificant thing to me. Although I can't wait, I will pay attention to you patiently, Duke. I look forward to seeing the new era you mentioned."
"I will, I will."
After the chat with the shell wise man, Duke began to browse every book on the bookshelf in the library.
Soon, he sat on the table with a pile of books in his arms, flipping through them one by one. He flipped through them so fast that he didn't even need to think about it.
As her level gets higher and higher, Xiaoyi's hardware also improves, and the speed of data entry naturally becomes faster and faster.
In the past, if you wanted to include a book, you needed Duke to read it carefully.
Now just glance at it.
"Are you reading so fast?" The shell wise man floated in front of Duke again at some point.
"Uh, I'm just looking for information. I need to find relevant information and read it carefully." Duke made an excuse and said perfunctorily.
The shell wise man stopped talking, and his figure slowly disappeared.
For several days in a row, except for eating and sleeping, Duke spent almost all of his time in Offata, frantically seeking knowledge.
There are many arcanists outside the world, who wanted to invite Duke to various banquets, but he declined them all.
Waiting until the last day, he finally did not go to Offa Tower, but found Madron Rhodiola, the chief director of Erudite Tower.
"Master Chief, after careful consideration, I have decided not to study at the Tower of Erudition for the time being. I plan to return to my hometown to follow my teacher and continue to learn alchemy knowledge." Duke sincerely declined the matter of further study.
Ma Delong frowned: "Alchemy, you don't plan to continue your studies in Natural History?"
"That's not the case. Natural history is to transform the achievements of various fields into social needs. My research in other fields is still weak, so I want to lay a solid foundation first."
"Too."
Ma Delong saw that Duke had already made a decision, so he stopped dissuading him: "Then put aside the study in advance, and arrange it for you when you want to come to study."
"Thank you for your understanding, sir."
"Well, let's go."
Leaving Ma Delong's office, Duke joined his assistants and knights, and played around Jingjing Lake again.
Only then returned to the Canglan battleship, ready to return.
The battleship Canglan slowly lifted off before dawn the next day. Standing in front of the porthole, Duke looked at the ever-shrinking Holy City of Arcadia and the emerald-like Whale Song Mirror Lake, thinking silently.
A large whale jumped out of the water, as if to see him off.
When you come, you will be a learned man, and when you return, you will be a learned man.
When you come, you will be the son of the sun, and you will return to the lord of light and shadow.
In just ten days, his status and reputation have been greatly improved, especially becoming a member of the enlarged meeting of the Union Tower, which made him a member of the top federal government.
"When I come back next time, perhaps, I should bring communication technology and be promoted to the chief sage of Offa Tower in one fell swoop!"
Looking at the holy city of Austrian law that has shrunk into a small point.
Duke's mouth curled up slightly.
Woohoo!
The Canglan made a crisp whistle sound, rushed into the clouds, and finally left the Holy City of Alfa and Whale Song Mirror Lake.
…
May 15th.
The battleship Canglan arrived at the Chengdong Air Station in Shenjiao City. It took Duke and his party a month and a half before they finally returned to Heijiao River.
Then took the shuttle and returned to the Suktara Mage Tower in a low-key manner.
"teacher."
"Good boy!" Seeing his student coming back, Suktara couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Teacher has already read about you in the newspaper, Lord of Light and Shadow, you have really gained a great reputation in the Holy City of Arcana, and your achievements have far surpassed your teacher!"
Suktala is only a third-ring arcane mage, and he is a big shot in Heijiaohe, but looking at the entire Seven Towers Federation, he can only be regarded as an ordinary arcane mage.
Duke is an erudite sage who is on an equal footing with the great Austrian mage.
"Blessed by spirituality, I have received many honors in natural history, but I am still weak in other fields of research, and I have to continue to learn alchemy knowledge from you, teacher." Duke replied with a smile, without any arrogance.
Even if his current status has surpassed Suktara, he still maintains respect.
"The teacher is very touched that you can not forget your original intention." Suktara patted Duke's hand with a kind smile, "Then let's resume teaching as soon as possible."
"Er...okay."
The teacher was worried about the inheritance of ring copy materials, and Duke was also concerned about the related technology of the projection ring, so the two teachers and students quickly finalized the teaching time.
Take a two-day break and start class.
Before the two of them had a further conversation, the butler Su Li came over and informed: "Madam, Lord Duke and Lord Erwin are here to visit."
"Please come here." Suktara ordered.
Immediately said to Duke: "It must be for your job arrangement. After you completed the canonization of learned sages in the Holy City of Arcane, the United Tower will hold a five-tower meeting to discuss how to arrange your new job in Heijiaohe Land."
Duke has one vote in the enlarged meeting, and this voting right is the proof of power and status.
No one can ignore this.
"Has there been any results from the discussion?" Duke asked curiously.
"No." Suktara said with a smile, "If it is a major matter that is decided on the fly, Lord Keystone will choose to cut the mess quickly, but for such things that are not in a hurry, this old guy likes to watch dramas and let others quarrel."
Duke commented on one sentence: "Bad taste."
"It's just bad fun. In fact, not only your new position has not been arranged, but Bernoulli's new position has not been discussed."
"Bernoulli still intends to work in Heijiaohe?"
"Of course he thought, he can still live for decades. If he doesn't occupy a position in Heijiaohe, how can he ensure that the family he created can be passed on safely." As the internal director of the United Tower, Suktala is well informed about personnel.
In other words, these personnel discussion meetings will eventually need to be filed with her, and she can see all the content immediately.
During the conversation.
Erwin has already walked in with a smile. If you don't look carefully, he gives the impression of an ordinary little old man.
While laughing, he muttered: "The son of the sun in Heijiaohe land, the lord of light and shadow in the holy city of Arcane, Duke, has quietly returned to the place of spiritual guidance!"
"Master Erwin." Suktara bowed slightly.
Duke responded with a smile: "Master Erwin, you are making fun of me."
"How can it be a joke, this is the glory you won, and because of your glory, the Heijiaohe land has become a dazzling pearl of the Seven Towers Federation." After Erwin came in, he sat on a chair, "Besides, with your current status, it is inappropriate to call me an adult. You and I can just use our real names."
"How is this possible, you are a senior."
"In the field of spiritual mystical law, why do you need to follow the shackles of the vulgar rules of the elders and the younger generations? Those who have achieved it come first. You and I call each other names. Otherwise, if you call me Lord Erwin, I will also call you Lord Duke." Erwin insisted repeatedly.
Duke could only nod his head and agree: "Alright then, Your Excellency Erwin."
Erwin cupped his hands, and replied very seriously: "Your Excellency Duke."
"Lord Erwin, what are you doing here?" Suktala interrupted the two people's mutual politeness and modest remarks, and asked proactively.
"As a teacher, you can also help me to discuss this matter." Erwin took a sip of tea and said, "Master Keyston found me in private and asked me to ask Duke's opinion. I plan to not arrange Duke to work in Shenjiao City for the time being, and arrange it after Cuihai City is completed."
Paused, he continued: "The main purpose of doing this is to shut Bernoulli's mouth. Recently, Bernoulli has been seeking a position in Shenjiao City. We don't want to give it to him, so as to prevent him from reaching an agreement with Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon in private and losing the chance of revenge."
The insect swarm invasion caused by the black jade horseshoe crab directly killed a 2-ring arcane mage and two 1-ring arcane mages in Shenjiao City.
This hatred, Keyston and others couldn't let go.
And Bernoulli wanted to put aside his hatred and pull the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon into his camp, so that he could strengthen his own power.
"Well, if that's the case, I'd like to make a contribution and exchange a son with Bernoulli." Duke nodded in agreement.
In fact, he doesn't want to be distracted by government affairs now. After all, he is only nineteen years old. At this time, he is laying a solid foundation and working hard for the future to create an era of spirituality.
It is unwise to be obsessed with the power of a mere place now.
"I guessed that you would agree. If you stand up and agree to work in Cuihai City, we can stop Bernoulli and let him also work in Cuihai City." Erwin said with a smile, "It will not only block his cooperation with Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon, but also allow him to work harder to build Cuihai City, killing two birds with one stone!"
Suktara snorted after hearing this: "You big men are intriguing and using Duke as a weapon. Don't be stingy about the benefits you should give."
Erwin said with a smile: "Don't worry, with Master Keyston here, are you afraid that Duke will suffer."
While talking, the butler Su Li came in again, went straight to Duke, and replied: "Ms. Kylia Nutao is visiting."
Erwin's ears were sharp, and he immediately narrowed his eyes with a smile when he heard the words: "Let me just say, old lady, what are you worried about, you student won't suffer any losses in Heijiaohe."
Suktara also smiled: "It's all nonsense, he is still young, how could he not suffer."
Facing the ridicule of the two, Duke's expression did not change: "Your Excellency Erwin, if there is nothing else, then I will go out first."
"Go and do your work, I'll chat with your teacher for a while."
Duke gets up and leaves.
Soon saw the blond girl wearing an arcane robe. No matter how you look at it, Kylia grew up in his aesthetics.
"Lord Duke." Kiria bowed when she saw Duke.
Duke took Kiria's hand: "If you still want to salute me, wouldn't it break the relationship between us?"
Kylia let Duke hold hands and walked in the No. 2 tower: "You are a learned man now, and I am just a 1st ring arcanist."
While speaking, Kylia secretly looked at Duke, flashing a sly smile.
Duke raised his head at a forty-five-degree angle and looked at the white clouds outside the window: "So what, in my eyes, all human beings are created equal. Even the 8-ring Huiyue Arcane instructor who lives in the Holy City of Arcana is no more noble than the beggars on the streets of Shenjiao City."
Kiliya smiled and said: "Then do you dare not salute the teacher of the arcane method?"
"Dare... If they don't hit me, I really dare!" When Duke spoke, he looked upright and awe-inspiring.
This wasn't a funny joke, but it made Kylia laugh out loud.
It took a long time to stop: "Oh, I almost forgot, I brought Kikyo." She waved to the assistant who was dotted behind in the corridor not far away.
The assistant immediately trotted over to bring a basket.
Kikyo's head was exposed inside, and he said rather resentfully: "Kilia, I thought you forgot me."
"Sorry, how could that be?" Kylia frowned.
Duke patted his stomach directly, and the next moment, the chick rushed out arrogantly, locking on the bellflower at a glance.
The thick tail flicked quickly, and he raised his head and shouted loudly: "Jiangyou, I have already been to the Holy City of Arcana, and even the instructor of Arcane saw a large group. Now I am the elf who has seen the most world in the entire Heijiaohe land, and it is not you anymore!"
Kikyo said softly: "Okay, chicken, you win."
"I was the one who won. My chick has traveled all over the world and has seen a lot of things." The chick started flying randomly in the No. 2 tower with bellflowers on his back.
Duke took Kiria's hand and climbed to the top of the tower.
At this time, the sun was already shining, and the two hid in the shade of the corridor, listening to Duke talk about what he had seen and heard in the Holy City of Alfa.
When Duke came out of the light and shadow, and the newspaper called him the master of light and shadow, Kylia would exclaim or praise him very cooperatively.
Stimulate Duke to secrete more dopamine.
"I am in the Holy City of Arcana, and the ones I talk to the most are not those arcane masters, but the shell wise man, the tower spirit of Alpha Tower."
"Shell wise?"
"Yes, just like the title given to it by the arcane masters, the wise man, it is indeed a wise man who studies heaven and man. The entire Alpha Tower stores countless knowledge about spiritual mysteries, and the wise man knows almost everything about this knowledge."
Duke said with emotion: "But the wise man is very humble, or he doesn't think he is a wise man. For it, wisdom is more like the imprint imposed by time."
"Yes, the ancient spirits may not have the thoughts of our humans. Grandpa Iron Head is an example. It is all about returning to the ancient times." Kylia also fell into emotion, "Grandpa Iron Head has no memory of this era."
pity.
The ancient spirit is immortal, even if he wants to commit suicide, he cannot do it.
"So, eternal life may not be a reward." Duke said, raising his hand and lifting the clean chin of the beautiful woman beside him, "Happiness is happiness in time."
Said, bowed his head and kissed.
…
The next day is Duke's birthday.
Although he doesn't like birthdays—it's not his own birthday, but his predecessor's birthday, so he doesn't like it.
Unable to stand up to Sanfis, Joanna Bobcat and others, they contacted him early in the morning and wanted to hold a celebration ceremony for him.
Duke deliberately refused.
But seeing Joanna and the others, when they asked themselves, their tone already contained caution, as if he was afraid that he would refuse to celebrate his birthday with his friends because of his status promotion. He was too embarrassed to refuse, so he could only agree to hold a birthday ceremony.
After getting the exact answer from Duke, Sanfis immediately took care of everything and wanted to hold a lively birthday for Duke.
"It's in Tower 2. Old acquaintances are celebrating together, and no one else is invited." Duke interrupted hastily, "Sanfis, go invite colleagues from the Penrose Master Tower. By the way, ask Penrose Master if he would like to come; Joanna, just call your brother and them."
"Okay, leave it to us!" Sanfis patted his chest, "Let's go, Joanna, let's act together."
"No, let's split up." Joanna pushed Sanfis, because of Duke, she and Sanfis also became friends.
But never give Sanfis any unreasonable thoughts.
"All right."
Sanfis looked at Joanna's decisive back, feeling lost in his heart, and then looked at Kiria who was flirting with Duke over there, and his heart ached even more.
The gap between people is too big.
Fortunately, he quickly adjusted his mentality and took the shuttle straight to Penrose Master Tower.
Soon contacted Orianna and other former colleagues, and made an appointment to attend Duke's birthday party tomorrow. Among the two supervisors, Vikas also agreed to participate. Only Leadman refused because he was too busy with research.
Next.
Sanfis asked again and learned that the mentor Penrose was in the tower at this time, so he knocked on the door of Penrose's office.
"Come in."
"Mentor, I, Sanfis, are back."
Penrose, who was writing the document, did not look up, and asked calmly: "What are you doing when you come back, card making is not suitable for you."
Sanfisto's face suddenly collapsed: "Teacher, I have already gone to Scott's Mage Tower, so why don't you still attack me?"
"Speaking a fact is called a blow?" Penrose looked up and asked with a straight face.
"Eh...you hit me because what you said is the truth."
"Stop talking nonsense, what can you do for me?"
"It's like this, it's Duke Sage's birthday tomorrow." Sanfiste deliberately bit down on the word "sage", "I invite you to the birthday party."
"Duke...the sage." Penrose repeated Sanfis' address.
Suddenly, there was an unbelievable feeling. Once upon a time, Duke was just his elementary school students. Since he built the mage tower, he has not brought fifty such students, but has also taught thirty.
Blink of time.
The former student has been awarded the title of Erudite Sage, and has become a big man with a higher status than him.
"I was still worried before, Duke surpassed me in the field of card making, and encouraged him to be distracted in other fields... How did this distract him and become a erudite sage?"
Penrose's unstoppable doubts and emotions.
It really feels like a world away.
"Mentor, mentor?" Seeing Penrose lost in thought, Sanfis couldn't help but waved his hand, "Are you going to participate or not?"
This brought Penrose back to reality from a trance.
Not knowing what he was thinking, Penrose nodded slowly: "Then let's participate. By the way, who are the participants?"
"Not many people, basically colleagues from the Mage Tower, as well as Joanna and Kylia." Sanfis replied.
"Well, I'll go over and chat with Suktara."
Looking for tickets~
