In the Academy's office, Serophi checked the spell models submitted by the two people and asked them to demonstrate it each.
"Yes, they are all done very well, especially Sylutia." Serophi nodded.
"It seems that you have mastered the basics of runes." The two girls looked at each other and smiled.
"Next, your goal is to consolidate your current capabilities and prepare for entering the third level."
"So early?" Sophitina was slightly surprised.
"It's not too early." Serophi shook his head and stood up.
"The third level is the first major hurdle that Transcendent faces. Many people spend their entire lives stuck here, unable to make any progress."
"It is different from the past where you only need to accumulate Aspect Power power and upgrade ability cards. Stepping into the third level is equivalent to carving out a road on your own where there is no road at all."
He went to one side of the room, pulled out a scroll, opened it, and hung it on the wall. It used retro and complicated patterns to depict the appearance of the creature Fate Disk.
"The fate surrounded by three phases is the foundation of all life, which ensures the stable continuation of life. It is also a kind of shackles that restricts the continued breakthrough and upward progress."
"Entering the third level means that on the original Fate Disk, from scratch, a new card slot is slowly opened, and coordinated and accommodated. This is the path created by the Fairys at the time of Fifth Era, and later spread to all living creatures."
"Before this, there were many creatures who tried different ways to reach the third level." He turned around and introduced them to the two of them.
"You should have heard of the legend of Purgatory Three-Headed Dog. This monster with three songs is exactly the legend of Fourth Era and "Star Beast Era"."
"At that time, the "Star-Gazing Beast" were baptized by information and knowledge from other worlds, and gradually awakened their wisdom. They did not know how to break through the restrictions of the third level, and then they could only roughly grow their bodies, devour food, and accumulate their dosage until their destiny was strong enough to expand Fate Disk and reveal the positions of six ability cards."
"Of course, the knowledge of other worlds also brings many crazy actions. For example, the same species "Star-Gazing Beast" will try to fuse with each other, connecting Fate Card with each other to build a unified monster."
"In that era, you could see many "multiple monsters" and "fusion monsters", such as Purgatory Three-Headed Dog, Nine-Headed Sea Serpent, Eight-Legged Giant Horse, Lion, the sheep-snake fusion monster Chimera, the griffin-headed monster, etc."
"Until now, there is still a rumor that there is a "fusion ritual" that allows originally low-level monsters to fuse and advance with each other to achieve the purpose of becoming stronger."
"This advanced method pioneered by Fairy Era was first called "Transmutation". The "Core Card" developed in this way is like a cocoon or a cicada, protecting Fate Card and becoming its most Sturdiness armor and weapon. It is the shell of your destiny, and it is also the evaluation and impression of you from the outside world."
"Later, we concretized this evaluation and impression into "career" "Class", which represents your current achievements and experience."
"Class not only allows you to gain strength, it also represents your lifestyle, and will in turn shape your character and concepts, just like a "cocoon" that melts the bugs inside and transforms into a brand new individual."
The scholar's explanation, from the shallower to the deeper, explained step by step how history developed and the differences in the past and present ways of advancement, which made the two of them excited and full of thoughts.
"When life is weak, it will instinctively seek the protection of the body. Similarly, at the 1-4 level, life also needs to condense some kind of "Class", show its own value and advantages, and gain a chance to survive. As for the "complete freedom of life will" that some people expect, that is probably only Seventh Order life that has the ability to achieve it." Serophi explained that the process of advancement is like the slow growth of a big tree.
After the course, Sylutia and Sophitina left side by side, discussing advanced matters on the way.
"The direction I chose is the same as my father. I am a scholar of "Secret Speech" Aspect Power. The Core Card I need to build is "Scroll of Erudition". This I need to learn and master a lot of knowledge, integrate and understand this knowledge, and build a systematic understanding of the world, so that if I face any problems in the future, I can find the source and answer from "Scroll of Erudition"."
"The advancement of scholars is generally not fast. It is like a trickle of water. It requires the accumulation of knowledge and experience. However, the advantage is that it is relatively stable, there is no danger, and it consumes less resources."
"Is Tia going to choose the path of "horticulturist"? I heard that the Courtyard advanced method of "Four Seasons Alliance" requires a large amount of rare resources to build the ecological cycle of Courtyard."
"Yes, I heard about it too." Sylutia nodded.
Her current goal is still to follow the path of "horticulturist", but she will not give up on "Radiant Moon" Aspect Power, but it is just less important.
"Spring Garden" of "Four Seasons Alliance" can create a stable environment like spring all year round and be used to cultivate delicate plants. "Summer Garden" can provide fiery energy to cultivate those plants that are sensitive to nutrition and For plants with extremely high energy requirements, "Autumn Garden" can be used to cultivate specialized fruit-bearing plants, greatly increasing yields, while "Winter Garden" can provide an extreme environment for cultivating rare plants with eccentric personalities."
"Tia Which one are you going to choose?"
"Probably "Autumn Garden"." The girl brushed her hair beside her ear and spoke.
"Qiu, I thought you would choose "Spring Garden" given your personality."
"I don't hate spring, but my personality may be more inclined to the unrestrained and pure autumn." Sylutia explained with a smile.
The purity of spring, the enthusiasm of summer, the freedom of autumn, and the tranquility of winter. Except for the enthusiasm of summer, she rarely has this personality trait and has some of the others. However, she is still more practical and prefers fruits to flowers.
Time passed by slowly, and there were only two months left before Sylutia left Golden Radiance Plain.
"Dire Wolf Wilderness"
Under the gloomy sky, weeds spread all over the place, and gray Wolf-Spike Grass fluttered, spreading to the end of the sky.
On the ground at the end of the wilderness, a giant wolf was fighting with the young man in front of it. There were deep wounds in its flying mane, and the young man opposite was also soaked in blood. The handle of the knife held in both hands was covered with sticky blood.
Agren stared at the other party and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
He roared and jumped forward again. His body cut through the afterimage in the cold wind, avoiding the fangs of the giant wolf. Then he grabbed the mane of the giant wolf and used the force to turn his body and turn on his back. Then the blade rotated and inserted into the neck of the giant wolf, drawing a large amount of blood.
The blood sprayed with hot steam, and then the blade became hot, as red as a soldering iron, and continued to evaporate, igniting a red flame.
Then the giant wolf suddenly turned over and knocked Agren away. Then it swung its giant claws and caught him, biting his body with its fangs piercing the shoulder bones.
At this critical moment, Agren held open the giant wolf's upper and lower jaws with both hands, preventing it from closing.
If those Sharpness teeth interlock, his body will be torn apart. This is also his last chance to survive.
"Ahhhhh--" The muscles on Agren's body bulged, and hot blood circulated in his body. At this moment, he was arousing "Blood Law" Aspect Power to the extreme, and bursts of white smoke came out all over his body.
In this way, he held on to the upper and lower jaws of the giant wolf's teeth with trembling arms for nearly ten minutes. During this time, the giant wolf kept swinging, trying to tear it apart, and then slowly weakened due to its own blood loss.
A few minutes later, the giant wolf died, and the blood-stained figure slowly climbed up from the wolf corpse. He cut off the giant wolf's head with a knife, half-naked, and dragged the giant wolf head away. The black and red blood stains that flowed along the way slowly dried up under the wild blue sky.
