my age of magic

Chapter 1520 70. Library anecdotes

The group of students following Scholar Xiaon stood there dumbfounded. They looked at the parchments on the table filled with Janna characters. The senior holding the magic book at the front seemed to want to say something to me. But I found that I couldn't call my name at all, and the mouth that opened and closed was a bighead carp that surfaced due to lack of oxygen.

Scholar Sean sat on the chair next to me, pulled out a magic parchment full of Ganna script, waved for a librarian, and whispered something to him.

The feeling of being stared at by the scorching eyes around me made people feel a little irritable. I straightened my collar, breathed evenly, and let the engraving pen full of starry sky ink drop a series of smooth lines on the magic parchment. Although I can't understand any of the characters drawn by those lines, it doesn't affect my smooth drawing of these characters. I can even feel the way the Jana scholar writes with his pen.

The magic student who copied the pages of the magic book on the opposite side couldn't help but stop at this moment, and looked at me curiously. It wasn't until I copied the entire page of Janna in one go that I raised my head and nodded friendly to him. He said in surprise Glancing at me, he calmly copied the magic book in front of him.

The whole afternoon, I was immersed in this strange state of copying and copying, until I put the magic engraving pen into the ink bottle again, and found that the starry sky ink in the ink bottle had completely dried up, and then I exhaled lightly and long. With a sigh of relief, he raised his head again, and the students who had been watching before had already disappeared.

The slanting sun outside the window stretched the shadow of the Taylor tree, and the withered and yellow leaves swirled in the air outside the window and fell one by one. The sunlight shone into the library through the gaps between the branches, making me squint my eyes.

Only then did I realize that the library had become empty. The magic student who transcribed the magic book on the opposite side had left at some time. The skinny magic scholar sat down around the round table. On the table were a few pages of the book that I had copied. The skinny magic scholar looked at the words on the page word by word. Seeing that I stopped the engraving pen in my hand, Then he raised his head and asked me:
"Have you studied Jana?"

"No." I shook my head, except that there was a magic pattern circle on a piece of magic parchment that I could understand, those words were like a bible to me.

The magic scholar asked me: "Then how did you write down these Jana scripts? As far as I know, the composition of Jana scripts is derived from the ancient Elvish script, but today, this kind of script has completely departed from the ancient script. The category of elven script has been derived into a more abstract new script, and there are no rules at all."

I pointed to my head, indicating that I relied on my memory.

The magician stared at me suspiciously.

I didn't know how to explain it. After thinking for a while, I walked towards the bookshelf full of magic books, walked quickly past the bookshelf near the wall, and then returned to the front of the three magic scholars. I quickly wrote down the names of each book in order, and only wrote more than one line. Then the magic scholar held my hand and said to me kindly: "There is no need to continue, you have proved yourself. It’s really unbelievable.”

"Come on, let me tell you that the above mainly describes the specific arrangement of the magic element matrix of the water magic 'water vortex', and analyzes the composition of the 'water vortex' from the structural principle of magic. The understanding of the people of the Green Empire is far superior to that of the people of the Green Empire, and the entry point is also different. When we learn magic skills, we are learning the drawing method of the magic pattern circle and the correct reading of the spell. Relying on the "time stagnation" greatly reduces the casting time It can increase the success rate of spellcasting. Although this can release magic skills quickly and effectively, the understanding of magic itself is stagnant at the initial stage, and no one is willing to pay attention to the composition of the element matrix of magic skills themselves." After finishing speaking, the magic scholar also He looked up at Scholar Shaun and Scholar Mullen, and then said to me, "Can you memorize everything in this magic book?"

I nodded quickly and said, "Yes."

Scholar Sean patted his fist excitedly, and said: "The inheritance of water magic skills in the Green Empire is seriously lacking, which is one of the reasons for the shortage of water magicians. This 'Water Vortex' is definitely a new magic skill. The most important thing is that this magic book is a model for the construction and arrangement of the element matrix, which plays an important role in the study of water magic, which is really a great thing!"

Scholar Mullen who was beside Scholar Sean also praised: "Sean, let me tell you where did you find this little monster? You took out some ancient goblin documents before, and now you have silently written the magic book unique to the Janna tribe." ..."

Scholar Xiao En approached the window with a proud look on his face, pointed at me and said to the magic scholar who is proficient in Janna characters:
"Let me formally introduce Scholar Jasper. He is the latest member of our water magician union, the young Jijia magician, who is currently studying at the Royal Academy of Magic."

This Jasper scholar is hunched over. Maybe he always needs to read magic literature on his desk, so he looks a little hunched and thin. Only his eyes are very lively, staring at me and saying:

"I seem to have heard of his name, oh, you are that Jijia, the discoverer of the life magic pattern on the fish skin hood."

It seems that the disturbance of the fish skin hood has spread to the entire imperial capital. In the imperial capital, many magicians may not have seen me, but there are very few magicians who do not know my name.

Scholar Jasper was very interested in me. After looking me up and down, he asked me again: "May I ask, where did you get this magic book in Jana language? As far as I know, the Jana clan Wizards seldom keep spellbooks with them, they prefer magic-boosting weapons like wands and crystal balls."

This is a typical research scholar. Basically, three sentences cannot be separated from magic. In his field of thinking, there may be nothing but magic.

"Uh... it's in the library of Haiyuan City." I wiped my nose and answered truthfully.

Scholar Xiao En knew that I had visited Haiyuan City a few days ago, so he stood aside with a smile on his face.

Scholar Jasper seems to have a certain understanding of the head of the Jana Sea Clan. He was even more surprised when he heard that I had been to Abyss City. He joked to me:
"The Jana people actually invited you into Haiyuan City? They are willing to take you to the library... I guess that group of Jana Sea people must not know your memory well, otherwise they will definitely take strict precautions against you."

In fact, I really want to say that the reason why the Great Wizard Zampa was willing to let us take us to the Janna Library, and even visited the Janna Kings in the Hall of Heroes of Janna, is actually the most fundamental reason. The reason is that she has no intention of allowing us to return to the Green Empire safely. In her plan, during the funeral ceremony for Princess Ariel, we will be buried in the sea eye together with Princess Ariel's ice coffin. among.

It’s just that the careful plan failed due to various reasons. Ying Li and I were lucky enough to return to the imperial capital from Haiyuan City. Many magic books of the Jana Sea Clan have been hidden at the bottom of the golden sea of ​​the Sea of ​​Spirits.

Scholar Mullen is a senior linguist. He is not only proficient in ancient goblin language, but also has some research on other languages. He has a deep friendship with Scholar Shaun for decades. This scholar Jasper is actually a close friend of Scholar Mullen.Only then did I know that when Scholar Xiao En sent someone to invite Scholar Mullen, Scholar Mullen was studying some ancient stone tablets brought back from the ancient ruins with Scholar Jasper at home. documents, they rushed to the Royal Academy of Magic together.

Scholar Mullen said: "This time we have a good topic of discussion in our water magic salon."

Scholar Xiao En glanced at Scholar Jasper, and said with a smile, "Of course, but the premise is that Scholar Jasper can translate the book of the magician in Jana before the salon is held."

Scholar Jasper gave a deep salute to Scholar Xiaon, and said: "I can only do my best. To me, these Jana texts contain a lot of technical terms and uncommon words, and some Jana words are translated into Grimm Empire language. , the meaning itself will be biased, I need to proofread carefully, Mullen, I need your assistance this time."

"As much as I'm happy, I can take this opportunity to learn some Jana language from you." Scholar Mullen seemed very optimistic, and readily agreed to Scholar Jasper's invitation.

Then the two walked to the desk and picked up the magic parchment half a foot behind me. These parchments are very thick, so the magic parchment half a foot behind is actually less than fifty sheets, but in the Magic Academy In the library, except for some books such as magic diaries, magic experiment notes, and biography of rangers, the rest of the magic books usually have no more than thirty pages, and magic books with more than a dozen magic parchments are also very common in the library. .

So when they picked up such a thick stack of magic parchment, Jasper scholar couldn't help but say, "This magic book has so many pages transcribed, why doesn't it seem to be finished?" Jasper saw the last page , only to find that the page did not end, and asked me questioningly.

I rubbed my forehead and tapped the inkwell on my desk, then explained, "Well, I didn't finish writing, actually, I stopped because... there was no more magic ink."

Scholars Jasper and Scholars Mullen couldn't help but look at each other, and finally Scholars Mullen asked me:
"So how much magic content does this magic book have?"

I calculated it carefully and said, "I probably transcribed about one-third of it."

"Forehead……"

Scholars Jasper and Scholars Mullen were a little speechless.

Scholar Sean came to my side and said to me: "Ji Jia, what are you doing recently? Why can't you be seen in the afternoon? In fact, you should read more books in the library, which will help The accumulation of magical knowledge."

"Recently, I am assisting the Yerkes scholar to research the new magic pattern structure." I replied.

When I said this, I was somewhat guilty. In fact, there was no innovation at all. I was simply rushing to make the magic pattern structure of "Power of the Giant Bear". I have been busy with this matter every night recently.

"Don't you think it's more meaningful to copy the magic books of the Janna clan?" Scholar Xiao En said to me. "I hope you can put down all your work before you finish transcribing this water magic book. Your name will be signed on the translation of this water vortex magic book, and I will apply to the academy for your merit points. By the way, are you willing to publish this magic book to the public?"

I readily replied: "Of course, I would."

Scholar Jasper praised me beside me: "Magician Jijia, you are a magician with noble character."

Scholar Mullen also said: "I hope that the members of the magic union can reflect on this matter through this matter. The group of junior inscribers are robbers in the case of the fish skin hood last time. They should have lost the magician. character, and the magic union fueled their arrogance."

It seems that only water magicians have leisure time to study academic knowledge. Many water magicians have high attainments in other fields. Obviously, Scholars Mullen and Scholars Jasper are such people. They study the magic civilization of different races, Alien characters are only a very one-sided part.

I originally asked Ying Li to have dinner together, but was forced to stay here in the library by Scholar Xiao En. He hoped that I could copy the entire book down in one breath. Scholars En arranged for assistants to go out and inform Yingli and the others that I was here, and my dinner was also arranged here. If you want to find me, you need to come to the library.

Scholars Mullen and Scholars Jasper translated the spell book directly on the desk next to me.

When the sun completely fell into the shadow of Mazzaro, Yingli came with Helena, Becky, and Catalina, and they even brought us some pastries. In fact, Yingli rarely bothered me at this time. For example, when I go to the magic laboratory of the Yerkes scholar, or follow Dylan senior to stay up all night in the stargazer union to draw magic rune boards, Ying Li will rarely come out to disturb me at such times.

This time, I was left in the library of the Royal Academy of Magic by Scholar Shaun. The reason why Ying Li came to visit the class was because she heard the news of my injury from Katerina, and she was a little worried about me, so she ran away Meet me in the library of the Royal Academy of Magic.

When Ying Li saw me leaning over the table and writing vigorously, the worry on his face completely disappeared.

The girls sat quietly and waited for me. Scholar Shaun told them that they could look for some magic books on the bookshelf. These magic books are professional books, and even Yingli cannot touch such profound magic knowledge. The girls visited the second floor of the library casually, but they didn't mention to read these magic books.

I wrote until midnight, and after I used up two and a half bottles of starry sky ink, I finally finished transcribing this magic book.

Turning around to see Ying Li Zhunv has fallen asleep on the desk, only Katerina is holding a biography of the ranger with relish, and she always carries the biography of the ranger "Yara" with her recently. Just look it up, there is no such knight-errant biography in the library of the Royal Academy of Magic.
