Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 344: Solutions to the Fog (Part )
  So the night's action is completely over here?
  Return to land and remove [Underwater Stealth] and [Star Barrier]. Alina finally felt like she was temporarily out of danger. However, this feeling did not stay on her face for long, and she teleported back to the hotel where she lived with the full results of the night.

"Ah, so fast?"

Looking up at the clock on the wall in disbelief, Ives finally asked the question in his heart.

"At least the 'Star Beacon' didn't alert me to anything unusual."

Alina immediately responded to the worries and doubts hidden in the other party's words with such tactful and firm words.

"That's good." Seeing his training instructor confidently taking out the retro astrolabe, Avis also put down most of his guard and turned to cast an expectant look at the other party, "Then there will be something tonight. What are the gains? Can you tell me in detail?”

"I may not be able to say too much. After all, I haven't had time to analyze a lot of information."

Feeling the anticipation and eagerness in the young man's eyes, Alina couldn't help but smile relaxedly from the bottom of her heart. Then she took out a brand new white paper from her hand without hesitation, and put the card that seemed to have countless knowledge and runes compressed into it. Card.

"As soon as you feel something is wrong, stop analyzing immediately. Do you understand?"

The moment Avis took over the card, Alina finally gave a thoughtful reminder.

"Yes, thank you for the reminder, Suzuran-senpai."

After bowing slightly, Avis immediately did not dare to waste time and began to inject magic power into the surface of the card, trying to break the special sealing barrier on the surface of the card. However, this time, he suddenly felt the weight of the card in front of him, the heavy and scary weight that absorbed a lot of his magic power but still didn't break the seal at all.

"Senior, what exactly happened to you inside, and why is it so difficult to remove the card seal this time!"

Finally, after three consecutive attempts to inject magic power failed, Ives finally overcame his unwillingness to trouble the other party and asked solemnly.

"Not much, just an altar that seems to be left in the early Second Era."

As soon as he finished speaking, the room where the sound had started suddenly returned to silence...

altar?

If he remembered correctly, this was a special building prepared by people in the early Second Era or even the First Era to worship certain gods. Although he had not seen it in person, he could feel this from past books. This originates from the profoundness carried by ancient sacrificial culture.

He had imagined that the anomalies hidden behind the small town of Selia would involve the distant Second Era, but he never imagined that this incident would involve the more distant First Era.

What is the concept of the First Age?
  It was an era when gods who were above the law fought for control of the world. Whether they were humans, elves, dwarves, or giants, at that time, they could only be regarded as vassals of the gods. As for magic and supernatural powers, these The magic that can help people change their destiny was only mastered by a few "gods' favored ones" at that time.

And now they have to face those existences that are above the law, and face existences that may be far stronger than everyone in their current era. How can this kind of thing not make people despair... Let’s not talk about whether they have it now. The law of ability confrontation, just talking about the altar left by the "God's Favored Ones", is something that even the Great Mage dare not shake. How could he, a new senior magician who has not yet reached the threshold of a qualified senior magician, be able to deal with it.

"Do you feel like you have no way to start?" Seeing the young man suddenly become extremely silent and frightened, Alina couldn't help but curl her lips slightly, and then changed the subject, "Actually, the problem is not that serious. "

"How to say?"

With this simple sentence, Ives couldn't help but feel hopeful again. As if grasping a life-saving straw, he looked eagerly at the senior standing beside him.
  "First of all, we can confirm that there are no so-called gods in the current Olivia continent. Those gods in the past have either died in the long history, or completely disappeared due to certain contracts."

However, at this time, Alina mentioned a piece of history that had nothing to do with the anomaly in the town of Selia. This made Avis very confused and could only try to follow the other party's ideas to find the possible existence between the two. direct connection.

"So now that those superior gods are gone, why should we still be afraid of those magical rituals that cannot be responded to?"

When she said this, Alina was very sure. After all, as for whether the gods still exist in this era and whether they will still pay attention to this continent, she got her teacher as early as many years ago. This is the clear answer from the [World] Sage, the first of the three great Sages of the Second Age. That is, there may be new gods now, but the Olivia continent does not belong to the area under their jurisdiction. As for why this happened, she only got vague hints about the 'initial contract', and more about the content of the 'initial contract', she was not able to learn.

But what she can be sure of is that as the "quasi-god" who once had the greatest hope of breaking through the restrictions of the law and becoming a god, her teacher must know the contents of the so-called contract.

Although she still felt a little disappointed when she thought about it now, she knew clearly that she was no longer the competitive little girl she was back then. She had already learned to control these unnecessary curiosity and thoughts that should not have occurred.

So, after quickly going through the corresponding memory fragments in her mind, Alina put away the imitation pocket watch pretending to be nothing, and confirmed Avis's current status.

Unfortunately, what happened was counterproductive. Avis still made her a little disappointed and asked about the reason, and expressed his distrust: "But senior, if the altar cannot get a response, then hundreds of thousands of people will be created in the town of Celia." What is the unexpected force in the past few years?”

"So, let me ask you, has this power increased significantly over the past few hundred years?"

Facing the young man's questioning, Alina was surprised, but she was not unprepared, and quickly made a new round of rhetorical questions.

"No." After carefully recalling the corresponding information he had obtained in the past, Ives immediately shook his head slightly, but after a while, he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly added, "But what I can confirm is that the fog came down hundreds of years ago. The phenomenon is far less intense than this time, so, senior, why is this?"

"Why?" Alina silently repeated the other person's rhetorical question, then raised the corner of her mouth slightly and asked back unceremoniously, "You should ask this question to the recent user of the 'Speech of Silence' and the person behind him. .”

The one behind...?
  Avis still couldn't keep up with the other party's sudden jump, and continued to rack his brains to think about this emphasized word.

"The one who is on the same level as killing."

As a result, just when he tried his best to eliminate all the options in his mind, his thoughts were suddenly interrupted, and before he could ask tactfully, Alina beside him was once again unexpectedly disrupted at this moment. His subsequent plans.
