Volume 6 Agate Chapter 526: The Old Master's Advice
"Welcome, Master Carmen."
Chen Lun and the old mage walked side by side on the church path under the night . He tilted his head slightly, smiled politely and said:
"You are the only two high-ranking saints in the team. You will be in a lot of trouble in the future. I hope you don't mind."
"fine."
Carmen waved her hand and sighed again.
"In fact, I also understand what the teacher meant. He is right. Although I have been promoted to a high position for hundreds and thousands of years, most of this time has been spent on the pursuit of knowledge and the study of magic... There are still many things in this world that I don't understand, and I need to rely on experience to know them."
"Read ten thousand books, travel ten thousand miles, and your mind will be free from the dust and dirt, and you will naturally be able to move within."
Chen Lun nodded and quoted a famous saying from his previous life.
Master Carmen was a little surprised.
He immediately understood the meaning and nodded in agreement.
"That's a good point, indeed."
"By the way, Master Carmen, you are very knowledgeable. I just have some doubts. I hope you can answer them for me."
Chen Lun stopped and spoke while holding the ivory-white cane that had transformed from the iron crown.
Carmen did not refuse, she chuckled and said:
"I'll tell you everything I can, Jack."
Chen Lun nodded, was silent for a moment, organized his words and said:
"In fact, a long time ago, I realized a truth based on the 'Law of Extraordinary Asymmetry', which is that after absorbing and learning from adjacent knowledge, you can gain more powerful power... Previously, Ms. Fredetri allowed me to stay in the Meteor Tower for further study for a week. Although the time was short, I benefited a lot, which made me more convinced of this truth."
He raised his head and frowned slightly.
"But my current conditions are limited. If I want to further develop my high-level abilities, do you have any suggestions?"
"You're thinking in the right direction, Jack."
Carmen nodded.
"I learned from my teacher's secret notes that the sun, moon and stars are adjacent to each other, which is the road of the starry sky; flesh and blood are adjacent to conspiracy, which is the road of filth; the earth is adjacent to the deep sea, which is the road of snail annihilation; fate, nature and magic are adjacent to each other, which is the road of sorrow and joy..."
The old wizard took a deep breath, his cloudy eyes seemed to be thinking, or reminiscing, and asked slowly:
"Do you know why only these ten divine paths have been passed down for five epochs?"
"Because there was a true God at their end, which is enough to prove the authenticity of becoming a god?"
Chen Lun asked tentatively.
The old wizard smiled and shook his head.
"This statement is too superficial... In fact, it is because only these ten paths can converge into four avenues, just like an upside-down tree, where the branches intersect to form a supporting trunk... This also indicates that after combining adjacent paths, it will indeed have a power far beyond the path itself!"
Carmen raised her hand and gave an example.
"In fact, you are not the only one who has had similar thoughts since ancient times. In fact, many people have had such thoughts and even tried them... but most of them failed. Only a very small number of people succeeded, and they have often become eternal existences... For example, the cat god Majimierna, He has integrated the power of magic, and the god of murals Clarenso, He once controlled the power of fate."
Chen Lun couldn't help but take a deep breath.
I felt a little surprised.
'So, the reason why I have been successful all the time is actually because of the panel... It simplifies things for me, simply skips the trial and error and research part, and gives me the results directly?! '
He pondered to himself.
'That's right... From the passive skill [Survival of the fittest] that I learned from natural knowledge, to the [Magic Flying Cards] that I later integrated with magic knowledge, and even the two ultimate skills [Earth Tracing Heaven Seal] and [Destined Death], it's all like this... I can rely on the panel to continue along this line of thought and become stronger and stronger! Gain a power far beyond that of ordinary destiny-based extraordinary people! '
Master Carmen looked at his expression and seemed to have guessed something, so he said:
"If you want to learn magic knowledge from me, it's not impossible, but I follow the 'idol school' of my teacher, and the knowledge I have is also concentrated in this field, which may be a little limited for you... My suggestion is that you'd better learn the basic knowledge systematically, and then gradually advance to the next level. Only in this way can you have a clearer idea of the direction you want to pursue and learn from, and thus get inspiration."
"Doesn't [Basic Principles of Magic] count?"
Chen Lun asked doubtfully.
Carmen smiled.
"That is just a drop in the ocean of basic knowledge. The teacher asked you to master it just to better teach the [Fredecrui Seal]... Fortunately, you are now a high-level saint. Your learning ability and efficiency are far superior to ordinary people. This can save a lot of time."
He looked towards the north, and after a moment of hesitation, he said:
"Jack, perhaps you can go to the Kingdom of Byron in the far north and find a magic academy for further study. That is the headquarters of the Madman School. As a church of the true God, they have abundant resources and accumulation, which is enough to help you further develop your abilities."
“Is that so…”
Chen Lun couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
At that time, he applied for a transfer from the royal city to the remote Lengye City, not only to avoid the dangerous vortex there, but also to settle himself down... Now, after receiving the old wizard's advice, he is somewhat tempted.
'I have accepted His Majesty Oscar's request and will inherit the last wish of Lord Huan and kill the Seven Gods... Perhaps this is still a long way off and needs to be done slowly, but no matter what, strength is the foundation, and I can't just stand still... and soon, I will participate in His Majesty Conrad's "murder feast" to deal with the flesh and blood angel Dolomypurnes. I need to improve myself as much as possible. Regardless of whether I succeed in the end, at least I must have enough self-protection ability! '
After thinking for a while, Chen Lun looked up and said to Carmen:
"Thank you for your advice, Master Carmen. I think this is a good choice... Then I may prepare for a few days and leave Lengye City next week, leaving only the incarnation to stay in the church. I'll trouble you to take care of it then."
"It's okay... Just have someone prepare a quiet research room for me. I'll usually stay in there. If there's a serious situation that your avatar can't handle, leave it to me."
Carmen said with a smile.
Chen Lun pinched the brim of his hat and nodded at him.
"Thanks."
…
…
…
Spirit world.
The Polaris team is moving forward.
For seven or eight days in a row, they focused their energy on the wonderland, constantly conquering the hidden copy "Jack's Past". Currently, the "Prologue: Red Apple Dungeon" has been basically cleared, and the "Chapter 1: Bone Gallery" was also completed three times yesterday and received an S-level score.
At present, Polaris has finally reached the maximum level 80, and has gathered the extraordinary knowledge of Destiny Sequence 6 [Flying Man], and is preparing to be promoted. And Goutoujin, Su Keying, Weiyin and others have also successfully promoted to Sequence 7.
Except for Dragon King and Baldy, all members of the Polaris team are now mid-level, with an average level of around level 55. Their combat power is extraordinary, and they can be said to be the top high-level player group in the player circle.
They were planning to hunt a few waves of polluted creatures in the spirit world to increase their contribution to the main quest.
"Be careful, the scene has changed again."
Dongyang walked in the front and said in a deep voice.
Everyone nodded and looked around vigilantly.
However, when the azure vision distorted for a while, the new scene that appeared before their eyes surprised them.
It seemed to be a dilapidated square, with old cracked slate tiles scattered all over the ground, and low walls erected around the edges, with braziers lit on top for lighting.
Right in front of him, the ground was littered with contaminated creatures that had just died. There was a giant lizard that looked like a small boss, with burn marks all over its body. Its head had been chopped off by a big knife, and it was lying in a disgusting pool of blood.
A dozen players stood there, some picking up the spoils on the ground, some chatting and laughing in low voices, and leading them were two men and one woman.
"Um?"
One of them turned around and was surprised to see the Polaris team, then he smiled meaningfully.
"What a coincidence, isn't this the number one 'strongest solo player' Beizi brother... and my old acquaintances Gouzi brother and Forgotten Boss."
This person’s ID name is “Lan Shi” and he appears to be a young man with blond hair and blue eyes.
"Old acquaintance?"
Dog-headed Gold raised his eyebrows, but he really had no impression of this person. His good friend Wang Xi Wu Ji beside him thought of something, frowned and asked:
"Are you a rotten persimmon? Didn't you delete your account? I heard you even terminated your contract with the guild."
"It seems you still remember me, Forgotten Boss."
Lan Shi smiled, wiped her bloody hands with a handkerchief, and said to the two:
"That account is indeed useless, and I have indeed left 'Shen Ai', but I am unwilling to accept this. Why is it that my character, who started off with great luck, was finally locked up in the Undead Prison and unable to turn over..."
He shook his head, feeling a little emotional.
"I just don't believe in evil! So I used the opportunity of 'Rebuild Save' and opened this new account... Unfortunately, I had fallen behind for a long time by then, so I could only work hard to level up and catch up silently. I read the forum posts every day, looking for any clues that can be dug up... Watching you dominate the list for an entire version, I would be lying if I didn't envy you, but I know that sooner or later I will catch up."
Lan Shi threw away the handkerchief, spread out her hands and said with a smile:
" Guess what? There is no shortage of people with vision in this world. The 'Lost Name' Guild later offered me a high-priced contract and trained me as a reserve signboard... Do you think you are the only lucky ones in this game? Wrong! There are many!"
His expression gradually became cold.
"Speaking of which, a large part of the reason why my account was scrapped was because of you two big brothers... I originally wanted to develop secretly for a while and then make a big splash, but since I've met you today, I might as well use you as a stepping stone! It will definitely be a hot topic if we can knock down the high-level team at the top of the leaderboard!"
After saying that, his fists ignited with high temperature flames, drew a scorching trajectory, and attacked the Polaris team.
