Fantasy journey to the heavens

Chapter 112 The downtrodden local wizard

In front of the spacious and unmanned test platform, Katim stretched out his hand.As his mental power was mobilized, a fireball slowly condensed in his hand, and then was released.

boom!
There was a light noise.

Ahead, the stone was broken into several pieces by the fireball.

Katim couldn't help but frown as he felt the power.

"Sure enough, even the power of the spell is much weaker."

The thought flashed through his mind.

In order to verify the conjecture in his mind, he specially found such a place to test.

As he had guessed before, in this world, not only the life energy of the knights became much weaker, but also the magic power of the wizards began to weaken.

If you calculate carefully, the power is probably only one-fifth of what it was in the Dawn World.

The degree of attenuation is huge.

I just don't know how this happened.

But Katim knew that in this environment, it would be extremely difficult for wizards and knights to appear.

There are very few people with the qualifications of wizards and knights. Under this inexplicable suppression, even those with sufficient talents may not be able to display them, and even if they work hard, they will not gain much.

Only those true geniuses can continue to move forward under such heavy oppression and achieve certain results by relying on the original knight's breathing method and meditation method.

Take Rita for example.

She is obviously an example. In such a repressive environment, she can still practice to the point where she is close to a knight. Her talent is really powerful.

If there were no external suppression from the world, with the talent she showed, it would be possible for even a great knight to achieve success in the future.

But now, it's a pity.

All sorts of thoughts ran through Katim's mind.

This oppressive environment in the world is quite harsh for extraordinary people.

But from another perspective, it is just right for Katim.

The worse the environment, the less people take the extraordinary knowledge that has been passed down.

It is convenient for Katim to pick up the leaks.

The most classic example is the book of spells.

If the environment was still normal now, considering the value of the book, it might not be Katim's turn to get it.

It was probably going to be taken away long ago.

Thinking about it this way, there are quite a few benefits.

Many thoughts flashed through Katim's mind, then he stood up silently and walked away.

After a while, he left this area and came to another place.

"Is it here?"

In front of an old street, Katim looked at the signboard in front of him and couldn't help but wonder if he was in the wrong place.

He came at the address Rita gave him.

It is said that there is a gathering place of a unique circle here, where many people who are interested in occult knowledge gather, and they seem to be very well-educated.

Katim also came with the idea of ​​​​trying his luck.

Just from the surface, the place in front of me seems a bit too dilapidated.

From the outside, it looks like an old room, nothing special about it.

After a slight hesitation, he still took steps and walked inside.

You are here, but it would be a pity not to go in and take a look.

Walking into the corridor, a cool breath emerged, which was noticed by Katim.

His body paused, looking in a certain direction unexpectedly, and then continued to move forward.

The so-called Mysterious Society was a huge club, and after entering it, Katim saw a lot of people.

Many of them are old people. They look very old, their hair is graying, and their eyes are cloudy.

At this moment, Katim almost thought he had walked into some senior citizen club.

But obviously, there are still many people here who are not simple.

The moment Katim stepped into this place, waves of mental power suddenly appeared, making Katim feel certain.

It seems that although this place is a little run down, there are still some real people there.

That fluctuation in mental power cannot be faked.

"Young man, are you?"

An old man turned around and looked at Katim, who was visiting in front of him, with some doubts on his face.

"I'm here to study."

A kind smile appeared on Katim's face: "I am very interested in the knowledge of mysticism. I heard that there are a large number of experts in this field gathered here, so I want to come here to study and see if I can gain anything."

"Studying? Come here?"

The old man in front almost laughed: "Young man, there is no useful knowledge here, just a group of outdated old men."

"The wisdom of an old man is the greatest wealth."

The smile on Katim's face remained unchanged: "And whether knowledge is useful does not depend on the knowledge itself, but on the person who uses the knowledge."

"You're right."

There was hesitation on the old man's face: "It's just that young people like you shouldn't waste time in a place like this."

He wanted to say something to persuade, but suddenly stopped.

Because in Katim, he felt a strong spiritual power.That mental power is stronger than many of them here.

He was stunned for a moment, with a wry smile on his face: "It turns out we are colleagues."

"Okay, you can do whatever you want, if you want."

"There aren't many people left here anyway."

He turned around and walked in with Katim to meet several other people.

There are not many people left in this club, only six or seven old people in total.

However, in Katim's perception, these six or seven people all had mental fluctuations.

In other words, these are wizards.

It's a pity that in the environment of this world, these people are generally very weak, and their mental fluctuations are only equivalent to those of some new apprentices.

The strongest one among them had mental fluctuations roughly equivalent to those of a second-level apprentice.

At this level, in this environment of being suppressed by the world, the strength is considered very weak.

Not only are they very old, but every one of them has a sense of twilight in their bodies. They seem to be living a very miserable life, and their faces are very decadent.

"Like you, many people here placed their spirits on the mystical knowledge when they were young. As a result, they gained nothing from studying it until they got old. Many people have nothing."

The old man had a wry smile on his face and said, "This is why I don't want you to take this path."

"Compared to us, you are still so young and you really shouldn't get stuck in this."

The old man's name is Rana, he seems to be the leader of this club, and he is also very old.

He was wearing a shabby leather coat, and his long white hair looked like it hadn't been taken care of for a long time. His overall image looked a little sloppy and downtrodden.

The appearance of the other people around them was not much different, and they all looked more or less a little depressed.

Katim couldn't help but look sideways.

In this world, are wizards so miserable?
If the wizards in the Dawn World saw this scene, they would all be shocked.

But thinking about it, it seems to be.

The strength of the knight mainly relies on the body. Even if there is a world suppressing the existence, he can strengthen his body, hone his fighting skills, and continue to fight.

In peacetime, he can also work as a coach in the martial arts gym like Rita, and live quite well.

Wizards are much worse.

In the apprenticeship stage, wizards are far worse than knights, and their living environment is very harsh.

The mental strength that is slightly stronger than ordinary people is not enough to make up for the weakness of the body, and the extraordinary knowledge learned has little use in this era.

Unless you transform in time, in this environment, once you invest too much energy in meditation and mystical knowledge, it will not be helpful to improve your life.

Thinking about it this way, it is understandable that these people are in a state of desolation.

Led by Rana, Katim soon joined the club.

He tried to discuss with other people, and was surprised to find that these people had solid basic knowledge and had good attainments in many fields.

This surprised him.

"Those of us who have been at this club have been talking about it for decades and the level will naturally improve."

Lana said with a wry smile.

Katim nodded thoughtfully, feeling that the group of people in front of him seemed even more miserable.

Each of these people has such solid basic knowledge. If they were placed at Morning Star College, they would all be among the group of outstanding students. But in this world, they are of no use. They can only waste their youth silently here. .

This sounds a bit miserable.

But there seems to be no way.

He proposed to learn from the people in front of him and wanted to learn the various unique inheritances mastered by these people.

Katim has discovered that although these people are all in a poor state, what they have learned is still somewhat different, and seems to be inherited from different wizarding schools.

At its peak, this world should have been the same as the Dawn World, with many completely different wizarding schools.

But with the decline of the times and the suppression of the world, these schools also declined together.

However, this was convenient for Katim.

If in normal times, each school is relatively closed, if you are not a member of this school, it is impossible to learn the inheritance of this school.

Now, it would be much easier if you think about it.

"If you want to learn, learn."

The old people in front of me looked at each other and didn't have much opinion on this: "In this day and age, if you don't come to learn, I'm afraid these things will follow us old guys into the coffin."

"However, we usually have to work, so I'm afraid we don't have much time here."

"work?"

Katim was a little surprised: "What to do?"

"Of course it's work."

Lana showed a wry smile: "If we don't work like this, no one will support us. The federal subsidies are not even enough to pay for food, so we usually do odd jobs outside to earn as much as we can. Some living expenses.”

Doing odd jobs?Earn living expenses?

Katim was silent again.

Are these people in front of me really wizards?

Why do I always feel like I'm in the wrong place?

"About this, I think I can probably provide you with some help."

Finally, he spoke slowly.
