Housekeeper Goode was responsible for order outside of Phantom Island, so Angel left with him.
“Master Pat, the Lord doesn’t teach you a spell. In fact, as Lord Flora suggested, is for your own good.” Housekeeper Goode whispered.
Angel did not make a sound, but looked at Goode with doubtful eyes, waiting for his follow-up.
“Master Pat should know ‘the path of true knowledge,’ right?”
Angel nodded, the so-called the path of true knowledge is actually a Wizard’s own path. According to Sanders: “It is their own unique scenic spot, not trapped by predecessors and decades of tireless walking. Even if the future is uncertain, but this is also their own unique landscape. This Wizard is also known as a True Wizard.”
But Angel still doesn’t understand, isn’t every Wizard walking out on their own path? If the means of copying predecessors can successfully allow promotion, then the number of Wizards will not be so small.
“The Lord wants you to step on the path of true knowledge as soon as possible. So, he will not take the initiative to teach you a spell at this time.” Goode paused and said, “Only you can decide which spell you want to learn and why. When that happens, the Lord will give you some advice on the path you choose. Rather than taking the initiative to guide you on a set path. This is the Lord’s pain.”
In Goode’s words, Angel’s frustration was lifted slightly. Whether it’s the path of Wizards, the path of spells or something else. Someone else’s choice may not be right for him. Only he knows what he wants. Sanders not teaching him a spell doesn’t mean he won’t guide him…
But Angel wanted mentor Sanders to teach him a spell in order to save contribution points, ah! If he goes to High Cloud Library, no matter what spell he learns, he’ll have to pay for it. He is very poor now!
“Even if you want to guide me to ‘the path of true knowledge,’ can you at least let me go to your study and see some spells?! You can also save me a lot of money.” Angel said in his heart that although Sanders study looked like a lot of books, it was nothing compared to High Cloud Library.
Walking all the way to the periphery of Phantom Island, Angel left. Goode glanced at the covetous Wizard Apprentices around with his eyes and whispered in Angel’s ear, “Master Pat, the Wizard Garden will be completed in about a week. You have to come as soon as possible when it is finished. Perhaps you may also realize some opportunities.”
After Goode had finished, he hurried back to his army of dark demon shadow servants.
When Angel set foot on the Sky Bridge again, he saw the three men from afar, but they did not stop him this time.
All the way back to the Falling Cloud Leaf Platform.
Angel was still thinking about “the path of true knowledge” when he left on the airbus.
He had some confusion about what he had just heard and thought Sanders was too general about the path of true knowledge. After being pointed by Goode, he suddenly had some thoughts. The path of true knowledge perhaps is a path full of personal imprints. On this path, there is personal thinking, experience and insights. It will not change because of anyone else. Becoming firm and independent, and allowing one to be determined when walking alone.
Angel suddenly remembered something as a child.
Pat Manor has a person named Aunt Ruili who likes to take advantage of him by swindling his money. Everyone hates her because she always secretly swipes something from the kitchen. Even Angel’s milk has been swiped by her. So, Angel hated her too. Later, he and mentor Jon talked about Aunt Ruili, but Jon smiled and said to him. “In the world you see, she is abominable, ugly and annoying. But in the eyes of her adopted children, she is gentle, beautiful and worth relying on.”
There are a thousand main characters from of a thousand people, and the annoyance in the eyes of others is always dependent on the point of view of the other. Like a beautiful woman, everyone can reach the consensus that “this is a beautiful woman,” but some people think she is beautiful because of her face. Some people think she is beautiful because of her chest, her waist or her legs. Other people think she is beautiful because of her heart, her character, or her personality. This kind of comparison, there is no difference between high and low. Whether they look at her face or heart. In fact, the same final conclusion is “she is very beautiful.”
The path of true knowledge is the same. Other people’s knowledge may achieve the current goal, but if one follows it blindly, they will lose their own judgment.
From the very beginning, one should make their own firm self-judgment and think independently about their future direction. Perhaps this is the meaning of the path of true knowledge.
But Angel still has some doubts in his heart. If the path of true knowledge is what he thinks it is, doesn’t it sound too easy? Why are there so few Wizards that actually step on it? Are there other key points he is missing?
Angel got off the sky bus and instead of returning to Apprentice Town at the first opportunity, he went to the central area of Tree Spirit Court.
After he was promoted to Wizard Apprentice, he had to apply for registration. Only after registration can he pick up a task in Mission Hall.
After the registration was complete. Angel went to the Resource Allocation Hall again. When he came out of the Resource Allocation Hall, Angel had an extra package in his hand. There are two things inside. One is a simple magic pattern robe. The style is similar to the “sheet” Shalem and Teuton wear, but Angel received a black “sheet.” The other is a contact device that looks like a crystal ball…
On his way back, Angel wanted to go to the High Cloud Library to find some books about spells. But when he thought about it, he gave up.
When he was first alone on top of Cloud Whale, he recorded a lot of books from Sanders Library and went to see if there was anything worth learning.
When he got home, Angel let Toby play by himself, and he came to the balcony alone.
Lord Tree Spirit seems to have favoured Apprentice Town No. 8 recently. There has been plenty of sunshine today. When Angel left, he had put the Holographic Tablet on the balcony to recharge it, and now it’s full.
Taking the Holographic Tablet back to the quiet room, Angel began flipping through the books he had recorded one by one.
The books recorded in the Holographic Tablet were very miscellaneous, and Angel spent most of the day sorting them out roughly before he officially began reading them.
To learn a spell, he must first understand what a spell is.
A spell is a form of expression with the magic source as its core. Magic has kinetic energy and knowledge as its structure. The description for the concrete manifestation is: Prying and disturbing the material world.
That is to say, magic source, magic power and knowledge are the three parts of a spell.
For example, level 0 magic cleansing is a spell that combines water and wind elements to clean dirt.
The principle for its release is it can create some kind of combination arrangement of water and wind element and simulate it as a kind of formula construct. Finally expressing it with magic power and becoming the lowest level of magic.
Generally speaking, magic power is used to form a “formula construct” as the core of the magic model, and then pry the primitive qualities of the world. However, cleansing is only level 0 magic, so there are not many steps to perform. But if he becomes a formal Wizard, some advanced spells actually need external a.s.sistance. Such as ** modification of body gland changes, casting materials, and so on.
Cleansing, the old predecessors have long summarized the formation of this “formula construct” model. In fact, future generations do not need to specifically understand the “arrangement of water and wind elements,” but directly apply the magic model so that it can be released.
Angel now looked at the Holographic Tablet. A magic model which looks like a “magatama standing on a plane” was displayed and made him feel a slight movement in his heart.
Magic source outputs magic power to the outside world. The cleansing magic model is generated in the mind, then magic power is slowly changed into this magic model under Angel’s control.
In the next second, a strange feeling came into being in his mind, and Angel released it from his fingers according to his mind.
Then a wet wind swept through the quiet room, cleaning the sc.u.m of the ground and the dust on the wall.
“… This is cleansing? It feels a bit unreliable.” Angel’s focus was on the cleaning itself. He didn’t know that his first spell being a success was against the heavens. This is the benefit of magic power refined by Singularity Scattering. Not only is it extremely pure, but also its density and controllability are greatly improved so that the magic model can be applied correctly in the first attempt.
Angel continues to look down and read.
The similar low-level magic models have become completely routine. Many Wizard Apprentices only memorize the model but do not go deep into its rationale. They know how to perform the spell but do not know why it works. Although they will eventually be able to release the corresponding magic. In fact, it is actually just following the path of its predecessors.
When Angel saw this, his heart moved a little.
He did not want to follow the path set by his predecessors. After, he just copied the magic model and decided to deduce the process of cleansing from scratch.
He looked for the exact principles behind cleansing and then took a serious and careful view of it.
A day later, Angel began to calculate the arrangement and combination of the wind and water elements. It took only half a day for a twenty-page book to be filled with dense formulas. Even with the huge amount of calculation, he did not deduce a combination method.
“No wonder everyone directly applies the magic model summarized in the book. If I have to calculate it myself, it would take too much time, and it would not necessarily be the best combination.” Angel thought, but he didn’t give up. He wanted to see the scenery of the spell path from its foundation.
It took Angel another day to deduce a combination.
Then, according to the corresponding formula, a new magic model is constructed.
The magic model finally looks like: “A hook jade cut by several planes.”
It is quite different from the model of a “magatama standing on the plane” recorded in the book.
This time, according to his deduced cleansing magic model. Angel slowly releases it with magic power.
—After a while, there seemed to be a breeze on his face with his collar shaking slightly.
Angel took out a pen and paper to record: [The cleansing technique deduced by this combination method has not reached the balance of two elements, water elements are almost imperceptible, and wind elements seem to be absent. It can’t be called cleansing, not even a breeze…]
Angel puts away his pen and paper and prepares to deduce another arrangement and combination.
This time, however, he chose to use the Holographic Tablet’s computing capabilities to achieve his goal quickly.
—When he first deduced cleansing. He used a pen and paper to calculate it. In order to understand the principle of cleansing, so as to know the “why.” Once it was clear, Angel is naturally reluctant to deduce it one by one. With the Holographic Tablet, why waste his time?
Angel sets the two elements as A and B and then inputs the formula as variables and data.
Immediately after that, the system begins operating automatically.
Then, in just ten minutes, more than thirty permutations and combinations are listed.
