Chapter 42

"The second type of bloodline inheritance. This theory believes that human beings did not have magical power at first. But there are a large number of creatures innately possessing magical power in this world.

in a long time.The blood of humans and magical creatures blended together, and the original magic controller was born.

With the inheritance of blood and the decline of magical creatures, humans gradually became the mainstream spell casters.

This statement is a typical lineage theory.However, it has many supporters and is one of the most mainstream theories at present.

And the third argument is pluralism.Magic is not born from a single event.The fusion of blood, the knowledge of devils, and the confluence of worlds, a variety of different major events have jointly created the current magic world. "

When the principal talked about this, some students asked questions.

"Then which argument are we supporters of?"

"That's a good question. Blake Bills never asks students to endorse that kind of argument. It's just for you to get to know them and then make your own judgments later in your studies."

"Then which view are you a supporter of, Headmaster?"

"I am a supporter of the third argument. But I want to declare that any point of view has its own evidence, but also has its own shortcomings."

Lu Xiao listened carefully below.In fact, from what has been said before, the third argument is obviously more accurate.But the theory of bloodlines definitely has strong evidence.

Look at the abilities shown by those previous students during the second round of exams.Except for Lu Xiao, very few people have pure mental power mutations.Most are able to exhibit special magical properties that are like superpowers.This should be strong evidence for the bloodline theory.

As for the first kind of devil theory, it is obviously a bit high-end, and it is estimated that relevant research can only be carried out when one goes deep into the origin of magic.

The first class is a purely theoretical class.

The principal told everyone about the history of magic and some common sense about the magic world.

For example, there are three wizarding schools in New York alone.

They are Brakebills, Wizards Academy, and Witches Academy.But the place to learn magic goes far beyond magic schools.New York is also the American headquarters of the Wizarding Council.You can also learn magic there.

However, the learning mode of the wizard council adopts the ancient system of master-apprentice succession.The formal wizards inside will cultivate several apprentices alone as their own inheritance.

The wizard apprentices cultivated in this way have more concentrated resources and faster formation.But the disadvantage is that it must not be comprehensive enough.

It's just that the apprenticeship system can be passed down to this day, and there is a certain reason.

Because learning magic itself is extremely difficult.The vast majority of wizard apprentices remain apprentices for the rest of their lives.Even if they specialize in one field, very few people can achieve great achievements.Therefore, the so-called comprehensiveness is actually a paradox in the magic world.

Even a more modern magic academy like Brakebills.In fact, it is not really a comprehensive teaching.They will be based on the magical properties of each student.Make major courses for them and list the others as minor courses.

After all, the human spirit is limited, and magic cannot be cast by chanting a few spells.

Regarding this point, Lu Xiao had a very profound experience in the second class.

The second class is a language class.This is also one of the most important and basic courses in learning magic.

"Magic originated from an unknown era in ancient times. This makes the root of all magic have a characteristic. They are all recorded in ancient texts. Therefore, if you want to learn magic, you must first learn and be proficient in related ancient texts language."

A student raises his hand.The professor motioned for him to ask questions.

"After all these years, why hasn't anyone translated magic into a modern language? Wouldn't it be easier to learn that way?"

"That's a good question." The professor seemed to be waiting for someone to ask this question.

"First of all, I want to ask you a question, what is writing and what is language?"

"It's a tool." Lu Xiao blurted out.

"Very good. Whether it is words or language, they are actually tools. They are tools that are commonly used in our daily life. Then the next question, what is magic?"

This time, no one answered.Even Lu Xiao didn't speak.If they can answer this question, they can still use it to study here.

The professor saw that no one answered.Pick up the chalk and write and draw on the blackboard behind.A large number of runes, unknown spells, and some lines form a complex pattern with a strange beauty.

"This is a magical model of candlelight. Do you think this is magic?"

There was a commotion among the student body, some said yes, some said no.After the professor waited for a few minutes.A conclusion was issued.

"Clearly, these are not magic."

He pinched the fingers of his right hand, and a flame the size of a candle ignited from his hand.

"This is it."

Now Lu Xiao understood what the professor meant.Runes, spells, and those strange lines are not real magic.They are just tools in the process of working magic.

"Accompanying tools."

When Lu Xiao said these words, the professor turned his head to look at Lu Xiao and nodded slightly to him.

"That's right, all of these things are not magic, they are just tools to perform magic. And the tools need to match the content of the job. Do you understand what I mean?

Magic itself was created with the aid of ancient scripts, and they matched each other.If it is replaced by modern characters, it is as if you use a wrench of thirteen to screw a screw of twenty, which cannot be matched.

The effectiveness of magic lies not only in the pronunciation of those spells, the accuracy of those gestures, nor in the flow and combination of magic power.

It's all of these combined.If there is a problem in any step, the magic will not only not take effect, but may even come back to bite you. "

Hearing this, Lu Xiao already felt that the trip was worthwhile.The professor's lectures can be described as simple and vivid.In just a few minutes, all the students had a certain understanding of the essence of magic.

"Okay, about the nature of magic, there will be other professors who will tell you specifically in the future. Now, let's start the first language class. This is the textbook you need to study."

The professor made a few gestures out of thin air, only to hear a popping sound.A pile of books appeared on everyone's desk.

It was really a big pile, the tall one even directly blocked Lu Xiao's head.

"Ancient Hebrew, ancient Greek, ancient Latin, Elvish, and Rune. The above five are compulsory languages.

The Devil's Language and Fairy Language sections are compulsory.

In addition, if anyone wants to expand their linguistics, they can learn from me alone.I can also provide elective subjects in Dragon Language and Abyss Language. "

Lu Xiao: "."

 At the end of the month, don't forget to vote for the monthly pass.Also, please follow up, the fourth round of recommendation is coming.Whether it can be fulfilled or not depends on the follow-up reading ah ah ah ah
