Lord of War

Sean played with a ring in his hand, a small smile on his face.

This ring is the spoils of war won from the Hall of Scholars.

Although Sean's attitude is indeed a little arrogant, but after all, he has a sense of reason, and the three old schoolboys on the other side can't say anything about him, and the result is naturally as disgusting as eating flies. But in order to maintain the face of the Temple of Wisdom, the old stubborn must of course distort the process a little within the scope of reason, so the old pedant in the middle proposed that as long as Sean can name the caged object, then he He gave Sean the ring given by his mentor in his early years.

The other two academics were surprised by this result.

And Sean, judging from the facial expressions of these people, that ring must be a good thing, so he naturally has no objection to this proposal.

Then the result of the fact, naturally, Sean, the cheater, won.

He only said five words.

Shadow Magic Pupil Leopard.

...

The apse of the Temple of Wisdom is a place where outsiders are forbidden to enter.

Many people believe that whenever a temple or a temple prohibits others from entering, there must be the most valuable treasures hidden in it. This law also applies to the Temple of Wisdom, but the rear hall is actually a library larger than the front hall. Of course, the books in it are naturally impossible to teach and read publicly, so there is a ban on outsiders and Unauthorized scholars and priests are not allowed to enter.

In fact, Sean knew that there was a research institute under each temple of wisdom.

What this institute studies is all kinds of things on the Miracle Continent, from plants to creatures, from monsters to divine beasts, and even people, all of which are their research objects. The truth that the outside world firmly believes that "undead creatures are actually the products of necromancers" is actually wrong. The first real undead creature on the Miracle Continent was actually born from the research institute of the Temple of Wisdom. All kinds of "coincidences", there is only one profession like the Necromancer in this world.

Of course, since then, no magician has been born in the Temple of Wisdom, and even the position of the priest system is one level lower than that of scholars, and all kinds of magic have disappeared from the Temple of Wisdom. On the Miracle Continent, the Magic Association was born because of this. After the gradual development of history, the Maggie Empire finally appeared, and then the first Magic Revolution appeared.

In that revolution, all kinds of magical magic finally had a clear division: soul energy, life, element, arcane. In the same way, the precise positioning and various occupations of the magician's strength have been created one after another, and the true status of the necromancer has also been recognized.

All of this, if traced back to its source, is related to the underground research institute in the Temple of Wisdom.

And the Temple of Wisdom can now be recognized by a clear status no matter what country it is in. A large part of the reason is that this temple does not need to compete for the power of faith-or, anyone who knows knowledge is the God of Wisdom source of belief.

At this moment, in the underground research institute of the Temple of Wisdom, an old man in white robe finally closed a book in his hand.

Here, there are more than 30 books on the surrounding desktops. These books are large and small, some with yellowed pages and some with ink fragrance, but no matter how big or small, new or old, these books all have one thing in common. , that is, all are opened on a certain page, and then fixed.

There's obviously some kind of experiment going on.

"That young man, do you know his identity?" The old man in white robe was the one who was in the middle of the previous pedantic, but at this moment, he seemed to be in good spirits, without a trace of old age at all, "Such an outstanding young man, It was absolutely impossible to be unknown before. Although the Shadow Magic Pupil Leopard is a seventh-order monster, its four legs are no different from many leopard monsters.

But the young man can recognize it with just one glance, which proves that our previous research on the Shadow Magic Pupil Leopard has made a big mistake! "

"Professor, do you mean..."

The person standing beside the white-robed old man was the female pastor who had made a bad impression on Sean before, but at this moment her face showed extreme surprise.

"Yes, send him an invitation letter." The white-robed old man said excitedly, "It is not easy for someone who can take the thinker from me."

Having said that, the professor is no different from a child. He has even begun to stare at the already very weak shadow magic pupil leopard in front of him, trying to find out what he has not found before. .

Compared to the professor's excitement, the female pastor, Lena, was a little dazed at the moment: That young man who was despised by himself was actually so powerful that he could take away the thinker who the professor regarded as a treasure? She still remembered that the professor attached great importance to that very simple ring. It was said that it was a gift from his mentor when the professor was still a scholar.

But now, Lina suddenly found herself a little jealous of the young warrior named Sean.

Even if she is jealous, she still needs to prepare this invitation letter from the Temple of Wisdom Institute.

...

It has to be said that the efficiency of the Temple of Wisdom is indeed very fast.

In just one afternoon, I have thoroughly inquired about Sean's residence. Although I am still curious about his origin, the Temple of Wisdom has never cared about anyone's origin. So that night, Sean received this invitation letter from the Temple of Wisdom.

Hayerson's letterhead.

"Sometimes, I really doubt whether you are human." Cecilia looked at Sean in surprise, of course, she spent more time looking at the invitation letter in Sean's hand, "How dare you even Hayerson's letterhead has been received."

"Isn't it a research invitation from the Underground Research Institute of the Temple of Wisdom." Sean cast a glance and threw the letter aside indifferently.

But in fact, Sean's heart at this moment is by no means peaceful.

The Hayerson Institute under the Temple of Wisdom is of the same status to the scholars of the Temple of Wisdom as the heretical judgment of the God of Light means to its fanatics. It's just that the Haiersen Institute is mainly low-key and secretive. It is different from the high-profile and well-known mainland of the Heresy Inquisition. Except for a very small number of powerful people, no one knows the existence of the Haiersen Institute, not even the Wisdom Sage. The same goes for the scholars and priests in the temple.

And the legend of the Hayerson Institute is an inspiration to many, especially academics. For them, as long as they can participate in any research of the Hayerson Institute, and once the research is successful, then their future must be the result of not worrying about food and clothing, and they can easily have both fame and fortune. Therefore, There are many people on this continent who are eager to receive the "Hayerson's Letterhead" that represents the highest praise in the Hall of Knowledge.

But Sean knows more than that.

The Hayerson Institute is not as simple as it seems. When players actually came into contact with it in the game, it was already the age of the fourth rank of the whole people. And the secrecy of the Hayerson Institute is beyond the expectations of all players-there was once a player who participated in a project of the Hayerson Institute and said it smugly on the forum, and he was arrested by the Hayerson Institute on the same day. He was expelled on the grounds that the God of Wisdom sent an oracle saying that he did not keep his promise.

Of course, players all know that it is actually the GM who made the hell out of it.

But no matter what, for Sean, it was a very distant thing.

You know, his current job rank is only second rank.

However, after thinking for a while, Sean immediately understood that it must be because he was too evil in the assessment of the Scholars Hall before, and he revealed his identity just by looking at the four legs of the Shadow Pupil Leopard. Even more admiration for those scholars.

After realizing this, Sean looked at the ring in his hand, and no longer had the same excitement as before.

[Thinker, Legend, Wisdom +5, Will +5, Permanent Effect "Focus": It is difficult for anything to distract you (it is not easy to interrupt when casting spells); Permanent effect "Wisdom": Rich experience And life experience makes you very wise (bonus when solving problems). Special: You have been endorsed by Bonnie White. 】

[Item description: This is a simple-looking ring, but it was given by Professor Bonnie White's mentor and has a very special meaning. 】

This is a legendary ring, although its attribute increase is not even comparable to the blood-patterned hexagonal ring worn by Cecilia, but Sean's excitement about obtaining this ring is far more than that of the devil. the ring. Because he is very clear that not any piece of equipment above the legendary level will have a large attribute bonus. In "Miracle", the most obvious manifestation of the legendary equipment and magic equipment is that the equipment above the legendary level is Comes with special effects.

Just like the concentration and wisdom attached to this "Thinker", this is an ability that ordinary magical equipment cannot have.

At this moment, I don't know if the effect of "wisdom" is working. Sean can easily see the meaning of "special" displayed on the ring, and now he finally understands the sentence "You have been approved by Bonnie White." "What does this sentence mean. And thinking deeper, Sean also understood the reason why the professor came to find him, and it must have something to do with the shadow magic pupil leopard.

If ordinary people get this invitation letter, they will be excited to participate.

But Sean is different, because he knows many things in this world better than anyone else in this world. Especially the incident about the Hayerson Institute that happened in the game forum back then gave Sean an understanding of this underground research from the Temple of Wisdom that no one else has: this not only represents the knowledge of the Temple of Knowledge. The highest praise, but also represents the shackles and surveillance of personal freedom.

The latter two restrictions are the reason why Sean instinctively resists.

The index finger tapped the table lightly, and Sean fell into deep thought unconsciously. At this time, his brain had already started to work very fast. The two permanent effects from the legendary ring of the Thinker also exerted unexpected results at this moment - if there is no effect of this ring, Sean will definitely not think of such a deep problem.

After a while, Sean's eyes finally glowed with new brilliance.

With his current strength, it is not enough to completely ignore the Hayerson Institute, but he knows what that Professor Bonnie White is looking for him to do, and this is where he can use it.

After thinking about this, Sean picked up the pen to write, and quickly wrote his understanding of the shadow magic pupil leopard, as well as some special features and habits in the reply letter, and stated in the letter that he currently has common affairs. I feel extremely helpless and painful for not being able to personally participate in the research work in the Hayerson Institute. I hope that what I know can help Professor Boni's research, and I ask Professor Boni to understand everything.

It didn't take a while for the reply to be written, and at the moment when the pen was written, Sean sighed softly: "Ron, Ron, don't let me down."
