Wizard: Become stronger by drawing cards from the potions variety show

Chapter 241 Mimic Follow

When I first entered the bookstore, I was greeted by a dark room with rows of old wooden bookshelves filled with thick ancient books and magic books. Their covers showed traces of time, and some were even yellowed and old. Even with good protective measures, aging of books will inevitably occur during reading.

If you only look at the appearance, you will think that there is a musty smell here, but in fact it is the opposite. The bookstore exudes a faint smell of books, not even a trace of decay.

The floor is covered with ancient carpets. Although it looks a bit shabby, it adds a warm atmosphere to the whole space. It is more like a warm small library than a bookstore.

There is an old long table in the corner, with books neatly placed on it. Sinclair usually sits at the end of this long table, reading and sorting out the collected information.

Occasionally, readers from the bookstore will sit here. In his free time, Sinclair will also chat with book friends.

Li Daoxian walked to the table. At the top was an exclusive interview about the Emerald Thieves, "The Freest Walkers."

Everything is exactly as it was when Sinclair left here.

But he might not have thought that when he came back after that trip, things would have changed.

Li Dao It's easy for him to crack. If we want to trap him, we can't go conventional."

Along with the words, the location of the bookstore, store decoration, and how to unlock the door were also conveyed.

Based on the existing information, Dave carefully communicated with Fernando along the way. Li Daoxian's information was very comprehensive, and Fernando probably didn't know much about Sinclair, so there were no surprises or surprises along the way. They came to Wanxiang City in a dangerous situation.

Gods are naturally high-level creatures, so rituals with the participation of gods are quite stable as long as the gods' wishes are stable. If the god ritual is enabled, no matter how exquisite Fernando's understanding of runes is, in high-level Under the gaze of the gods, what he can do is extremely limited.

To some extent, wizards' use of divine rituals is similar to medieval priests or priests, but with more freedom.

However, with the development of the times, most of the gods have disappeared with the changes of the years. The remaining gods also need to be registered. According to the "Law of Belief" implemented by the Wizards Association, they enjoy the right to reasonably preach. Similarly, the Law of Belief also It is stipulated that the gods also have the obligation to provide help to the Wizards Association when necessary.

At the same time, it is best to arrange the manpower provided by the Bagu wizard in advance at the location where Fernando and the others will land, so that whether it is rescue or closing the net, the initiative is in their hands.

There are not many gods that the Security Investigation Bureau has the authority to point to. She must understand the differences between these gods, their personalities and the scope of their abilities.

Fernando said: "We can let you join. However, in principle, our task has not been completed yet. Although we have obtained "Reflection in the Lake", it still needs to be decrypted."

Nancy thought for a moment and came up with an idea: "Maybe we can choose a spiritual ceremony..."

"Didn't you decrypt it?" Dave asked in surprise. Fernando is a rune decipherer and a senior historian. Deciphering the secrets in the classics is his specialty.

Li Daoxian did not participate in the arrangement of the ceremony. Although he was also curious about the divine ceremony, he had more important things:
He needs to maintain communication with Dave and pay close attention to the speed of Fernando and the others.

Nancy nodded solemnly, this task was a good opportunity for her to perform.

……

Dave understood clearly and said: "Fernando, what are we going to do next? Now that I have completed the test and the task has been successfully completed, is it time for me to join the Emerald Thieves?"

At this moment, the virus in Dave's body sent a burst of information, and Li Daoxian's voice said in his mind: "We have set up traps in Area C, Sinclair's bookstore. If you go to the Jade Thief Group's If you want to teleport away immediately, lead the other party here first."

Gods exist in the wizarding world, and many sects have their origins in gods.

Li Daoxian looked at Nancy, smiled and said to her: "Just do what you want, relax, don't be afraid of failure, our main purpose now is to test them and understand their abilities, as long as we can make them It’s worthwhile to expose more methods.”

She and Leo got busy, and the two of them worked together to arrange the ceremony. At the same time, Nancy also had to think about which god she needed to borrow the power of.

Including the Inspectorate, they have the authority to use the power of gods through rituals.

Fernando said: "Faced with a lock, I can know how to make a key to open the lock, but I cannot conjure a key out of thin air. Do you understand what I mean?"

Dave immediately asked, "What's the key?"

Fernando gently rubbed the cover of "Reflection in the Lake" with his hand, then opened the book and said slowly: "Inspiration."

Along the way, Fernando spent most of his time studying this book. Fernando tried a variety of methods. After several trials, he finally figured out the conditions for unlocking the book.

"In the era of Kavus, all the great wizards wanted to pass on their knowledge and wisdom and let the wizard community prosper. They did not value blood, nor were they troubled by emotions. They respected knowledge and were absolutely rational. , and because of this, their inheritance often focuses on testing the qualifications of the inheritors depending on the content.”

"This is also to ensure that their knowledge is inherited by qualified people and their ideas can be developed..."

"In this book, the standard core factor of the test is inspiration."

inspiration?

Dave immediately said: "My inspiration should be pretty good."

He is a person with low magic ability, and his own magic talent is not outstanding. The reason why he can grow from hunting giant structures to become a high-level wizard is because of his spiritual talent, relying on the classics. Perhaps, this can be regarded as a kind of inspiration?
Fernando laughed.

Although in Dave's opinion, this smile was a bit like "watching a show".

But Fernando did not refuse Dave's request after all. He handed him the classics in his hand and said, "Then you try. If you can obtain the inheritance above, then we will save a lot of effort."

Dave took "Reflection in the Lake" and flipped it over and over again, only to feel that there was nothing special about it.

Turning over the pages of the book, there are lines of poems inside. Most of the descriptions are vague and misty. Apart from being catchy, the only characteristic of the book is that I don’t know what it means. I have no idea what the poem is expressing and how hard it is. After reading a few of the poems, Dave felt helpless.

"Are you sure there is inheritance in this? It looks like an ordinary book no matter how you look at it."

Dave attached his thoughts to it without giving up, and penetrated through easily without encountering any obstacles, just like an ordinary book.

Fernando snapped his fingers, and "Reflection in the Lake" instantly returned to his hands. He smiled and said: "Of course there is, I can vaguely feel the difference in the book, but if I want to inherit it, I don't have enough inspiration." ”

"Of course, in addition to this, there is the simplest evidence..."

As he spoke, he raised the book in his hand and said to Dave: "Look, this book is from the Middle Ages. After such a long time, it does not have the unique sense of age that ancient books have. The pages are brightly colored and the text is Clearly, this cannot be explained by careful preservation.”

"Of course, it is precisely because of this that the nobles who collected this book thought it was a modern imitation, and thus missed a treasure." Dave calmly changed the topic to the next plan. , he asked: "Then we now need to find someone with high enough inspiration? An artist? A scholar? Or a prophet?"

What he mentioned are all professions that are recognized as requiring high levels of inspiration.

Fernando shook his head and said with a smile: "No need, you passed the test and joined us, so we have to meet up with other members first, just so you can get to know them. There are many talents within the organization, let's see if there are any inspirations from the members If the conditions are met, if there are none, we can only invite possible candidates. "

"Well, that's great, but where should we meet?"

"Abisovol...that is to say, what people often call the hub of chaos. After we arrive at Wanxiang City, we will transfer directly and leave. The sooner the better."

Fernando said something that Dave didn't expect, but it was reasonable.

Abisowal is a paradise for all criminals.

The order of the Wizards Association there can only radiate a very small area, and most areas follow the rules set by different criminal organizations. There are even rumors that there is an underground parliament there, which is in charge of the order of the Chaos Hub.

All criminal organizations are legal there.

The Emerald Thieves are also a criminal organization, so it makes perfect sense to have their headquarters there.

However, the Emerald Thieves themselves claim to be "just", which always leaves people with a sense of disparity.

Fernando looked at Dave and said nothing for a long time, thinking that he was frightened by the name of Chaos Hub, and said:
"Don't worry. In fact, there is not as much chaos as the media says. No place will always be in chaos. In chaos, order will be established sooner or later. It has always been like this."

Dave asked: "So...there is really an underground parliament?"

Fernando nodded naturally: "Yes, and the leader is still one of the twelve members, so Abisovol can also be said to be our territory. Compared with other members, there are many people in the force, and we have families and families. Our Demon Thieves Group The number of people is small, so the per capita benefits are greater. You will know after you join.”

What Dave heard was sent back to Li Daoxian simultaneously through the virus.

Li Daoxian repeated softly: "Abisovol..."

This name is not unfamiliar. In the Potion Master competition, Dodge comes from here, and it is also a very unique profession in the Chaos Nexus, the Flesh Wizard.

Moreover, Hu Lun and others later also went to the Potion Association there. Instructor Gordon believed that their temperaments were more suitable to be used there.

"That's great. It seems like joining the Emerald Thieves is a really good decision."

Dave said: "However, before leaving here, I may have to go back to my residence here to pick up some things."

Fernando frowned and said, "If you don't have anything important, you can buy new ones when you get there. We are not short of money."

Dave explained: "It's some of my modified equipment. With them, I can quickly get started in new places. You let me join because you probably took a fancy to my intelligence capabilities."

Fernando sighed and said helplessly: "Okay, let's move quickly and tell me the address."

"District C of Corolla Department of Wanxiang City, No. 4 Guanghui Avenue, Miracle Bookstore."

Li Daoxian also got the news through the virus, and he immediately issued the order: everyone is ready, and the next step is to take down the opponent with lightning speed. If the movement can be sealed in the bookstore, seize the opponent's Being a formal member may give you a chance to penetrate into the other side.

Soon, the cloud aircraft floated in Area C. Not far from entering Area C, Fernando stopped.

Fernando said: "Get out of the car."

Dave said: "It's not here yet..."

Fernando said: "Zone C is restricted, we can only get off the car here. You don't usually drive, right?"

Dave said as he got off the bus: "I usually prefer to take the bus, it's more convenient."

Fernando shrugged.

After Dave got off the bus, he turned his head in his seat and glanced indifferently at Dave who was waiting below...

……

After Dave came down, he saw Fernando also getting off the Baiyun aircraft. Then he waved his hand and the Cloud aircraft left on its own.

Dave was stunned.

Fernando didn't give Dave a chance to ask, so he took the lead and said, "Let's go quickly. We'll finish cleaning up early and we'll finish the mission early."

Dave nodded and walked towards the Miracle Bookstore according to the map provided by Li Daoxian.

However, Dave, who was walking in front, didn't realize that Fernando behind him had a slightly stiffer expression at this moment than before.

But Li Daoxian, who was monitoring Fernando through the virus, immediately realized the difference. After careful analysis, he quickly discovered that what was following Dave might be a mimic.

The reason is simple. In the Potion Master Competition, Li Daoxian had used the latest mimicry, so he knew very well what the biggest detail difference between mimicry and wizards was.

Li Daoxian narrowed his eyes. Was it because Dave didn't know about the traffic restrictions in Zone C just now, so he exposed his flaw and made Fernando suspicious?
Or is it due to Fernando's own cautious habits?
The reason is unknown, but one thing is certain, the original arrest plan will be changed.

Fernando controlled the mimicry to wait and see the subsequent development. If there was any sign of trouble, the opponent would probably teleport away immediately.

The teleportation links in Wanxiang City are very developed. Even if you find a hotel room, you can teleport away immediately. It is quite free. If Fernando really ran to Abisovol, they would not be able to chase him.

Li Daoxian immediately canceled the action order and told Dave that he was being followed by a mimic. Don't reveal any flaws, continue to go to the bookstore as planned, and delay as much time as possible.

All that can be done now is to delay time temporarily.

Li Daoxian and the others need to find Fernando's hiding place before Fernando discovers the abnormality and escapes.
