Chapter 245 Simple Mission
"Flying" was classified as an astrological system in ancient times, and in the Magic Council, it belonged to both the force field system and the star system, because its principle of operation is to use the gravity of the stars to offset the constraints of the earth.
"It feels so good to fly." Lucian closed his eyes and felt the cold wind blowing in his face, it was a kind of pleasure that seemed to break free from all constraints, "It's just that the speed is a little slower, and you need to calculate the angle and direction of the star's gravity by yourself. And before the advanced flight technique of the six rings, it was not as fast as the magic steam train, let alone airplanes and supersonic speed. Well, use fluid mechanics, aerodynamics or something to optimize."
Lucian, who was immersed in the beauty of flying, suddenly heard a calm male voice in his ears: "Dear Mr. Level 4 Arcanist, you have violated Article 7, Paragraph 18 of the Alinge Management Regulations: 'You shall not fly in Alinge unless you have permission from the Magic Council'. Do you pay the fine or go to the Forbidden Demon Prison for a while?"
Oh? Lucian opened his eyes as if he had been awakened from a dream, and looked at the young man in front of him wearing a black battle mage robe, he had black hair and brown eyes, a serious expression, and a simple and smooth robe with a four-ring magician badge, a red flame badge symbolizing the battle mage, a black scepter badge representing the magician's internal punishment status, and a white feather badge for permission to fly, but because he was on a security mission in Arlinge, he did not wear an arcanist badge.
Oh no, I was so excited to learn to fly that I forgot that Alinge forbade flying...... Lucian came back to his senses, realized that he had made a big mistake, and couldn't help but rub his forehead: "How much fine do I need to pay?"
Thinking that he only had sixty-one arcane points, Lucian asked again with a wealthy temperament: "If you go to the Forbidden Demon Prison, how long will you be locked up?"
Seeing that Lucian did not resist, the man's serious expression softened slightly: "Mr. Arcanist, this is the southwestern suburbs of Alline, the punishment is much lighter than flying in the core of the Sky City, and you are the first time to offend, so the fine is thirty arcane points, and if you go to the Forbidden Demon Prison, you will be locked up for a month."
"A month? Well, I'll pay the fine." Lucian made a decision a little painfully, just to celebrate his promotion to the middle level and set off a big firework.
The man wrote a penalty note on paper with magic effects and stamped his identity badge: "Mr. Arcanist, you can take it to the Department of Corrections to pay the fine."
Then he smiled and glanced at the dreamy ring on Lucian's right hand: "Mr. Evans, congratulations on your promotion to the intermediate level and becoming another magician who has advanced to the third ring before the age of twenty-two. I think you won't have any difficulties before the sixth ring." The unique shape of this ring has long been known to the majority of magicians along with the tabloids circulating among magicians.
In fact, I am not yet twenty years old, of course, if I count the age of my previous life, then I am twenty-five years old...... Lucian scolded and smiled gently: "Thank you, you are the first magician to congratulate me on my promotion, by the way, I don't know your name yet, can you tell me?"
The battlemage smiled humorously: "Of course, I'm not afraid of retaliation, Mr. Evans. I am Ulyssian from the Silver Moon Song Alliance, currently affiliated with both the Department of Punishment and the Department of Battle Mages. Just now, after my magician saw through the Eye of Alinge that it was a level 4 arcanist who violated the flight regulations, he didn't dare to deal with it himself, so he reported it to me." He saw the "element" of Holm's crown ring before deciding to teleport over through the Alinge magic circle.
"Ulysses? A genius arcanist in the electromagnetic system?" Because of his status as a genius in the eyes of others, Lucian was instilled with the information of the generation of geniuses of the Magic Council by Lazar, Roque and other friends. Ulyssian, a level 4 arcanist, almost won the Silver Moon Medal for his discovery of the photoelectric induction phenomenon, but he was a strange battle maniac who applied to join the Battle Mage Department and the Punishment Department himself.
Yurisian smiled self-deprecatingly: "In front of you, Mr. Evans, how can I be embarrassed to call myself a genius? In the hearts of most young magicians, there are only two real geniuses in this generation, one is Mr. Felipe, who has won two Immortal Throne Awards, one Holm Crown Award and has been promoted to a higher level, and the other is Mr. Evans. I have to say that your appearance has raised the 'evaluation standard' of geniuses, as if you are not a true genius without receiving the highest honor symbol in your respective field. So I, Rachel, Arthur, Samantha, Larry, and others unfortunately became ordinary magicians."
He tactfully expressed his respect for Lucian with humorous words, and he was a very talkative magician.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Ulyssian activated the Alinge magic circle with the black scepter badge and disappeared in place.
Lucian looked at the penalty in his hand, shook his head and smiled: "Now there are sixty arcane points a month subsidized, which can barely cope with the expenses of daily life, experiments and potions, but if you imagine the second to third rings, there is enough potions every month, and magic materials are not squandered like money."
"Suddenly I regret why I purified the magic circle, otherwise there would have been the first monthly annuity payment starting in July. According to the current promotion and sales of Holm Minerals and Harvest Company, there should be hundreds of gold thalers per month in the first few years, and when they are completely promoted in these countries, it is not impossible to have five or six thousand or even ten thousand gold thalers per month, which is equivalent to a high-level magician."
Putting away the penalty, Lucian slowly descended, while looking at the darkness to the west: "Natasha, John, Uncle Joel, Aunt Alyssa, Teacher Victor, Elena, Phyllis...... I really want to find a chance to go back and see them......"
When Lucian slowly descended to the height of the second floor of the villa, there was a creak, a window opened, and Leilia and Heidi rubbed their eyes and looked out the window. They were so tired that they couldn't sleep, and they wanted to see the beautiful night sky and recall the stories their mother had told them before.
Far from home and relatives to come to Alinge to learn magic, after heavy homework and spellcasting practice, the emotions of longing are always unresolved, and they can't communicate with Altor's Natasha like Lucian.
"Hey, Mr. Evans?" As soon as she opened the window, Heidi saw Lucian floating next to her, and he was about to return to the meditation room.
Lucian smiled and said, "Good evening, Heidi and Reylia. Why, can't sleep? Do you want to have a set of arcane exercises?"
The two little girls who were originally confused suddenly widened their eyes, couldn't help but take a step back, and said with a dry smile: "Actually, we are here to close the window, otherwise it will be too cold to sleep. Mr. Evans, Happy New Year, I hope you can become a mid-level magician in the new year!"
Perfunctory Lucian with words of wishes, Heidi and Leilia slammed the window hard together, but after two seconds, the window opened again with a bang, and two pink and slightly freckled faces lined up and down, staring at Lucian, staring at his feet without stepping on anything:
"Mr. Evans, you, you have become a mid-level magician? Have we been sleeping for a year?!"
…………
After two weeks, Lucian built the "Star of Muskillin", the unique magic of the three rings in the "Book of Astrology and Elements", and stabilized his strength, so he went to the Alinge Magic Tower to change the magician badge.
So far, Lucian's soul has constructed a total of twenty-seven one-ring magic, sixteen second-ring magic, and four three-ring magic, which is twenty percent more than the ordinary three-ring magician who has just advanced, and the most different thing is that in addition to flying, Lucian's other three three-ring magic are all unique magic!
In the magician management department, Eric's stiff face still had the suspicious smile, he stretched out his hand and said: "Congratulations, Evans, you can be promoted to the third ring in just one year, worthy of the name of genius. Even with the help of magic potions, it shows that you have a very solid ability based on mathematics and science. Generally speaking, there will be a high-level magician or archmage who will accept you as a student at this time."
"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Eric. But not necessarily, at least apart from the stars and elements, I haven't determined the rest of the direction yet." Lucian shook hands with Eric and handed him the sorcerer's badge.
Eric looked at Lucian's magician badge and reminded: "Evans, you have been promoted to the middle level, and you can have a constant magic effect on the magic badge, what do you want?"
"Mr. Eric, can you choose other rewards without constant magic effects?" Lucian had an "elemental" ring and didn't value the constant magic effect on this mid-level badge, so he asked directly.
This situation is often encountered in arcanists with good magical items, so Eric was not surprised and asked in a businessmanly manner: "Evans, what reward do you want? It cannot exceed the value of a constant normal magic effect."
"Mr. Eric, I want a super magic skill, a spell increase range." Lucian had already thought of the answer. This super magic technique is used in conjunction with "Lucian's Great Fireball", which will triple the amount of mental power consumed, but can offset the instability of this magic.
The Magic Council has inherited and developed a variety of super magic techniques, including Lucian's unsystematic "Spell Silent Shot", "Spell Instantaneous" that can offset spell buffering, "Spell Power" that increases magic power, "Spell Extreme" that gives full play to magic effects, and "Spell Range Increase" that increases the distance and range of spells.
These super magic skills must have a certain level of arcanist or magician to redeem, and they are expensive, and the "spell enhancement" that Lucian currently wants to learn is the cheapest of them.
Eric Mo calculated: "The basic value is the same, but Evans, you may have to compensate for ten to fifty arcane points."
"No problem." Lucian felt like his heart was bleeding, he had just paid the fine, and he only had thirty-one arcane points left on his body, and he had sold the unusable cold iron dagger a few months ago.
The magic badge was placed in the magic iron cage along with the instruction document written by Eric, and as the bell rang, the bright silver light disappeared.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the bell rang crisply, and the silver light lit up again. When everything calmed down, a silver-based black ring badge appeared inside the magic iron cage, a thick rolled parchment.
Eric picked up the badge and sensed it, his expression becoming slightly strange: "Evans, I deducted a total of thirty arcane points from you. At the same time, a mandatory task was issued to you."
Lucian has entered the intermediate level in both arcane and magic, so naturally he has to accept the mandatory task of the council once a year, and it happens to be a new year.
"Mission?" Lucian was surprised that he had received the task just two weeks after his promotion, so he took the magic badge and the parchment with the "Spell Enhancement" supermagic technique written on it, while sensing the message inside the magic badge in confusion.
"Demon Slayer Mission (Easy Level): Deep in the Capas Mountains of Capas County in the Kingdom of Holm, a three-ring magician summoned a low-level devil when his spell failed, and he was hit and killed, while several low-level demons entrenched his castle. Please clear them with other sorcerers who have accepted the mission. Completion of the mission rewards fifty Arcane Points."
