After getting on the train and returning to Mishir District, Sylutia and Lady Falan inspected various villages, towns and manors in the area, and then began to plan the arrangements for spring plowing. They tried their best to ensure sufficient grain production and store more in the two years before Season of Sinking Fog arrived to cope with the long season.
In March, spring plowing officially began. Because of the official coordination and participation, this time the use of machinery was fully promoted for the first time. Under the power of surging steam, the land was deeply plowed and broken up, and then fertilizer was spread and sowing began.
In the following months, Mishir District also successively recruited horticulturists to assist the area's food production. After the work entered an orderly and stable state, Sylutia was finally able to spare the energy to consider his own advancement.
It has been a while since she reached the fourth level. Because of Mockingbird-Starry Sky "Steam Locomotive" and Academy Grand Tournament's single championship, her reputation spread throughout the Alliance. This process Cheng Li's Secret Speech"Aspect Power" kept accumulating, and she had already met the need for advancement. However, she had never decided which Aspect Power to choose as Second Aspect Power", so she did not advance in time.
Now, her own Fate Card condensed Secret Speech"Aspect Power has reached a certain limit. If this state is not suppressed, she may spontaneously enter Fifth Order at some point. state, but if you advance to this Single Aspect state, your strength at Fifth Order will be far inferior to Composite Aspect, and you will also lose the opportunity to master multiple core abilities.
So, which one is better to choose?
Sylutia was lying on the table, looking at the several chess figures placed in front of her. These were all made by her according to her own state, simulating several advanced forms in different ways.
The first is Secret Speech·Gold Steam". She has advanced on this path. She wears a Mage robe with a black background and a gold edge pattern. She can learn and use the secrets of many the Alliance factions and control many war machines. She is an orthodox Mage characterized by a wide range of "harmonic machines".
Secondly, she advanced through the path of Secret Speech·Radiant Moon. She wore a moon-colored ceremonial robe and held a crescent moon Magic Staff; she can learn many secrets of the Origin Hourglass school., and then combined with the basis of Mithril Clock's "faction", it can display a variety of time-based abilities, and can also look back in history and reproduce the abilities and secrets of many ancient creatures through archeology. It is the ancient Mage that is characterized by time "and antiquity".
Finally, she took the "Secret Speech·Alien Star" path. She advanced on this path. She wore a dark blue Mage robe and a large Mage hat. She held a Starshine Staff in her hand and could focus on Mithril Clock's "secret method of the faction" can cast a variety of secret methods of Clockface Engraving, and can easily summon and control the power of the Astral Realm. This is the alien Mage characterized by time and Star World.
Apart from the above three, there are other very unlikely options, such as taking the Secret Speech·Nightmare "path, learning the secret method of Phantom Puppet School" and becoming a rare Doll master, or taking the Secret Speech·Blood Law" path and transforming the ancient Blood Dynasty secret method reappears, becoming a Blood-Cursed Angel who is good at killing and fighting, or follow the teachings of teacher Knox, follow the "path of Secret Speech·Beast Fang", integrate many secret methods of Bionic Faction, and reproduce the various powerful abilities of the ancient Primal Beast Aspect.
Feeling a little distressed, Sylutia looked at the six chess figures on the table, put them away, and prepared to go back to the Thetis Academy to ask about the Academy's chief. He also visited Amelia. I wonder how the blue-haired girl is doing now.
A week later, Sylutia finished explaining various matters, then communicated with Lady Falan, and then boarded the train to the Thetis Academy.
Returning to this familiar campus, Sylutia first visited his senior, Da Vinci, the current fifth-grade chief, and then asked him for some advice.

"Oh, I didn't expect Hedra to be so distressed?" The other party rubbed his chin.
"Actually, for most people, being able to specialize in one or two skills requires a lot of energy and time. Therefore, by the time they reach the top of the fourth level, they have basically already determined the direction they are good at and the path to advancement. Therefore, there are very few worries about choice, only worries about lack of strength and difficulty in completing the advancement ceremony."
"Your situation is special. You can learn everything very quickly, and you can take any path to advance. It's really enviable." He thought for a moment.
"However, it is right for you to come back and ask. Maybe you are also aware that Academy and Alliance Council have high expectations for you and hope that you can play a greater role in the future, so it is very important to choose the right path."
"I'll take you to see the director of the Academy. He should make some arrangements. If you have any questions, you can ask directly." After saying that, he took Magic Staff and walked out of the laboratory with Sylutia.
The two got up and flew quickly through the vast campus and arrived at the office building where President Academy was located. It was very close to Tower of All Things" and the surrounding terrain was empty, like a huge square.
After entering the building, the two came to the office of Chief Academy. Da Vinci knocked on the door and took Sylutia in.
"Teacher, Hedra is back." He spoke in a casual voice.
In the room, the old man was working on documents. After hearing this, he nodded, quickly finished what he was doing, and then put down his pen.
"Hedra." He looked up and saw the familiar black-haired girl. With just one glance, he knew why this girl was here.
"It seems that you have reached the edge of advanced. You must have some doubts and questions that you want to know." After saying that, he stood up.
"Follow me." After that, he took the two of them to the fifth floor of the building. The entire floor here was empty. There was a huge and complicated magic circle on the ground, with patterns such as clocks, stars, and machinery outlined.
After arriving here, Aitos Sage stopped and stood in the magic circle. Then the magic circle under his feet gradually lit up, and then pieces of sealed stone slabs emerged.
"These stone slabs come from members of Mithril Clock" in the past. After they achieved great achievements, they engraved and sealed their Fate Card on the stone slabs."
"Although these tablets cannot reproduce the power of those sages, they can still show how they planned their own path and what results they ultimately achieved."
As Aitos spoke, these stone slabs glowed with light, as if a seal had been opened, showing their own different styles and colors, and the magnificent figures among them were also presented one by one.
The Fate Card template sealed in the stone slab corresponds to a character who is at least the master level of Sixth Order, and there are also many sages of Seventh Order. The vast and complex patterns show the ingenious constructions of the predecessors, as well as the profound rune circulation patterns, which are dizzying.
"You can observe and learn here. I think after seeing the footprints left by these predecessors, you should have your own experiences and ideas."
Aitos After the sage finished speaking, he took out two Key and gave them to the two of them so that they could come over and observe them at any time.
Facing the inherited essence treasured in this school, the two of them were also filled with excitement and gratitude.
For more than a month after that, Sylutia spent almost all his time walking between these stone slabs, observing and understanding the path created by the masters and sages in the past. This kind of experience and understanding is unique to other schools and small groups. What is unimaginable is that not only are there very few organizations that can so completely preserve the inscriptions of the past Fate Card, but there are also not so many sages and predecessors to refer to, so we can only choose from a few templates and then explore on our own.
