Studying Science in the Alternate World

Union Towers.

In the executive conference room, figures flickered.

Everyone here is an arcane instructor, the difference is that some of them are shining with light, they are avatar phantoms descending from the ring of projection, and some are real people.

"Duke is only a 2-ring arcane mage. If you open the will of the stars, you may not get any enlightenment. Instead, you will waste a once-in-a-century opportunity!" An arcane teacher frowned, with a firm attitude, "I firmly oppose, open the will of the stars to him !"

"Tom Xi, don't be so stubborn." Thursas said.

Tom Xi has two red eyebrows, and he responded seriously: "I am not stubborn. I have no ill feeling towards Duke. On the contrary, I admire this young man very much. But the will of the stars is no small matter. A once-in-a-century opportunity does not allow any mistakes."

"I support Tom Xi's point of view. It has been more than 3,500 years since my ancestors received the enlightenment of the will of the stars and broke away from the Storm Empire to create the Seven Towers Federation. The limited thirty-five times of enlightenment from the will of the stars helped me through the Seven Towers Federation. Multiple crises." Another arcane teacher said calmly.

Then he asked back: "Every enlightenment of the Will of the Stars is initiated by the members of the Stars Conference, and only the stars can accept the Will of the Stars. If Duke is allowed to open it, does this mean that a 2-ring arcanist will join the Stars?"

"You can't say that, Marcis, you may have guarded the flood domain for too long, and you don't quite understand the current situation." Lambert Raven said gently, "The enlightenment of the will of the stars is guided by spirituality. In the past, we Of the stars, most spiritually beloved, most beloved today, is without a doubt Duke."

"It's just a ring of branding, can it be called spiritual love?"

"Isn't it possible? The Ring of Branding is enough to change the world. After a long time, Duke may not be eligible to be selected into the Hall of Valor."

"This is too exaggerated!" An arcane teacher shook his head again and again, "The branded ring is indeed qualified to be called a 'ring', but it is far from being selected into the Hall of Valor!"

"The light of the Erudite Tower has been repeated three times, and this year's Light of the Erudite Tower has no choice but the ring of branding. In terms of the wind direction of the past few years, the spirituality gathered in Duke is unmatched." Madron Rhodiola Said something coldly.

But soon someone retorted: "How can the light of the Pagoda of Learning be used as a reference standard? The spiritual feedback is flashy, not the right way to practice!"

"I think you have never been exposed to the light of spiritual feedback. All things are born with spiritual nourishment. Spiritual feedback is nothing more than a way of spiritual nourishment. Why belittle it!"

The arcane instructors were arguing endlessly.

The meeting of the stars has been delayed again and again, almost until noon.

At this time, an old man who was sitting at the head of the round table of the large conference coughed lightly, and all the arcanists in the audience stopped arguing immediately.

His gaze involuntarily focused on the old man.

The old man's hair, beard, and eyebrows are all silvery-white, without any variegation, and the folds on his face can catch flies, but his eyes hide a look as deep as the stars, no one dares to confront him See.

"Spiritual mystery is an endless relay." The old man spoke slightly, his voice seemed a little weak.

But everyone listened to him carefully.

"The stars shine every night. Sooner or later, we will truly merge with the stars and gaze at this land." The old man said slowly, "I have already smelled decay in you and me. That has changed."

finished.

The old man suddenly fell silent, and his eyes were no longer as deep as before, and became cloudy and lifeless.

After a full three minutes, there was an arcane teacher who bared his teeth: "The Lord Speaker is confused again!"

"It may not be because of confusion." Another old man sitting next to the elder of the upper council looked at his old friend for hundreds of years with complicated eyes, "Andre has already touched the boundary of the 9th ring, perhaps his words have already expressed clearly what he meant."

Then the old man turned his head to look at a female arcane instructor, and sighed softly: "Muse, as the chief director of the Stars Tower, we can't settle a dispute, so according to the rules, you can exercise your power alone and choose to activate the will of the stars. candidate."

Muse is a kind-hearted old lady who nodded slightly: "Okay, Lord Speaker."

then.

Muse's eyes began to wander over everyone in the meeting of stars, and finally fell on a young arcane teacher: "Miguel, I should have chosen you."

When Miguel heard this, he frowned immediately: "What made you change your choice?"

"You were born in the most difficult place in the gravel field, experienced hardships, and reached your current high position. As the chief executive of the United Tower of Gaohe City and the guardian of the gravel field, your qualifications are flawless. Spirituality loves you, but it is not enough."

"Not enough?" Miguel frowned.

"Not enough. You have been shaken. If you hadn't been rescued, maybe there would be another fallen demon in this world."

"That was an omission when I was young. Now that I have cleared the fog and witnessed the stars, how could I choose to perish!"

"But this has already made me exclude you, after I have a better choice." Muse smiled slightly, not caring whether she would offend Miguel, she looked at the two speakers, and then said her own Choose, "I choose Duke."

The speaker was still in a state of confusion, his eyes staring blankly.

The lower speaker nodded and said: "Then it's settled, invite Duke to open the will of the stars and accept the enlightenment of the will of the stars."

"This is too hasty!" Miguel was not reconciled, and said in a cold voice, "The will of the stars is so strong, Mr. Speaker, Chief Director of Muse, don't you worry, Duke can't bear the will of the stars, and he will be directly shocked into a fool? "

After a pause, he sneered again: "Maybe you won't become a fool, but become the chief director of the muse, the fallen devil you fear the most!"

Muse smiled lightly and did not respond.

The lower speaker said in a deep voice: "Okay, the decision of the meeting of stars has been decided, you just stop for a while... Tailar, announce the result of this meeting to the outside world."

"Okay, Lord Speaker." Tailar stood up and responded.

The meeting of stars ended here, Miguel snorted coldly, and dispersed his phantom. More than a dozen other arcane masters who came in clones also dispersed their ghost shadows one after another.

The rest of the arcane instructors left in twos and threes.

Thursas and Lambert Raven walked together, and the two waited for Muse specially, and thanked her: "Thank you for choosing Duke."

Muse shook her head: "If it weren't for Miguel's flaws, I wouldn't have chosen Duke. The 2-ring Arcane Mage is too risky after all."

"Adventures are rewarding, and the enlightenment brought by the will of the stars is getting less and less, because we stick to the rules and choose the safest candidates." Thursas said, "I always feel that the stars are the most spiritually favored, you must know We also consume the most spirituality."

"That's what I think too. If Duke didn't turn out to be born, he would naturally choose from among the stars, but since there are new choices, why not give it a try." Lambert echoed.

Muse did not refute, but said: "The will of the stars will be activated at that time, and please protect Duke, so as not to be really hit by Miguel. Once Duke's twisted ring misses, not only will the opportunity to activate the will of the stars be wasted, but also Lost a potential star."

"Don't worry about this, it's really an accident. Even if the old man is desperate to break his soul, he still wants to protect Duke's twisted ring."

A group of people walked out of the Union Tower.

At the same time, on the big screen of the Tower of Offa, the decision of the meeting of stars also appeared.

"After the discussion and approval of the executive meeting of the Union Tower, in view of the fact that the will of the stars is about to shine, Duke is officially granted the qualification to open it. I look forward to him bringing new enlightenment to all mankind."

...

High River City.

A large city built on the desert Gobi, except for the city and the surrounding suburbs which are oases, it is surrounded by rolling yellow sand and rocky Gobi.

Occasionally, there will be small oases dotted in the yellow sand, forming a market town, or building a mage tower.

Compared with forests and plains, the environment here is undoubtedly much worse.

But in the desert, there are still resources that arcanists cannot give up, not only the spiritual spring, but also other things that need to be grabbed.

Union Tower, soaring into the sky.

In the chief executive's office, Miguel slowly opened his eyes on a big chair covered with a dragon skin.

The eyes that were originally out of focus gradually became focused, and stared indifferently at the void in front of him.

subsequently.

Miguel slammed his fist on the desk carved from huge jade, and Miguel let out a low growl: "Muse! Duke!"

A crack appeared on the jade desk.

Miguel suppressed himself, and spit out a few words through the gap between his teeth: "It's bad for me!"

He closed his eyes and looked inside the spiritual sea. In the central area deep in the spiritual sea, a spiritual core that shone like a bright moon was slowly rotating.

On the seven ring tracks around it, arcane wonders and arcane weapons are neatly arranged and running.

Waiting for his thinking to pass through the ring track, rush directly into the bright moon-like spiritual core, and cross the layers of ring structures to reach the center of the spiritual core.

There.

There is a pyramid, towering in the void.

However, the surface of this pyramid has serious signs of weathering and erosion, and even the top corners of the pyramid have been worn away.

and.

This process of weathering and erosion has not stopped.

The wind and sand blowing from nowhere kept hitting the broken pyramid, peeling off more material from the already mottled appearance of the pyramid.

"Without the help of the will of the stars, I have to block the damage of the twisted ring by myself, otherwise, my end..." Miguel's thoughts moved to the top of the pyramid in an instant, and he sat cross-legged on the broken top, trying to Repair this pyramid.

However, just as he started to use his power, there was a sudden gust of wind around him.

Immediately, a figure suddenly rushed out from the dark wind, turning into a gentle woman, exhaling like blue: "Miguel, you are here, you have come to see me."

"Go away!" Miguel scolded angrily.

The dark wind quickly shattered, and the woman's figure also disappeared. However, after a while, the dark wind struck again, and the woman showed her figure again.

"Miguel, don't lie to yourself, you just came to see me."

"Get out!"

Yinfeng disappeared for a while, and then came back again: "How could you treat me like this, I died for you, so you can live."

"Go away!"

"You are really cruel, Miguel, it is you, you, you, you are the one who pushed me into the abyss, you greedy man who fears death, do you know how painful I am in the abyss?"

"No, no, no, you did it voluntarily, you did it voluntarily!" Miguel's thought image yelled at the top of the pyramid, "Go away, Melis, the spirituality has chosen you to sacrifice for me , why don't you stay in the abyss obediently, but come out to mess with my heart!"

"Spirituality chooses to sacrifice me, I am willing, Miguel, but you must not forget that you pushed me into the abyss with both hands." Melis' figure quickly turned around Miguel.

Like a cloud of shadows, Miguel was shrouded in it.

Then.

Suddenly, Melis's figure changed, her skin was broken, and countless maggots came out of it, her voice became hoarse and terrifying: "Look, you pushed me into the abyss, and the scars of the earth grew on my face, On me, take a look."

"No!" Miguel closed his eyes, waving his hands indiscriminately.

"Look, Miguel, don't you like the muscles in my arms the most... come on, touch it, kiss it, just like before, like before you pushed me into the abyss... touch it hard, come on , Miguel, I can't help it!"

At the end of the hoarse voice, the gloomy tone echoed in the entire spiritual core.

until the next moment.

boom!

The maggot-covered figure of Melis scattered in the explosion, Yin Feng was also destroyed by the explosion, and everything disappeared in the explosion.

On the broken pyramid, Miguel bowed his head in silence with tears in his eyes.

After a long time.

Exiting the state of internal vision, Miguel stood up from the big Yam leather chair, black shadows flashed in his eyes.

Walking to the window, the entire Gaohe City was crawling in his field of vision.

"Meris, why do you always haunt me? You have been with me for almost fifty years." Miguel muttered to himself, "I have become the stars and the biggest king in the field of gravel. Are you still unwilling to rest in peace? , What an... ugly woman!"

He lowered his head, looked at his right hand, as if grabbing something, and then squeezed it: "Do you want me to become a fallen demon, to fall with you? It's wishful thinking, I can kill you once , can kill you a second time!"

a long time.

His voice was cold: "I promise!"

In the distance, a sandstorm erupted suddenly, and the yellow sand all over the sky seemed to form a wall that swept across the world, slowly advancing towards Gaohe City.

The wind and sand in the air, even arcane spells, could not stop it, crackling and hitting the glass.

In a short while, the entire Gaohe City and the oasis at the foot were swallowed by the yellow sand. Miguel was indifferent to this, but silently watched the sandstorm sweeping the entire city, blocking the view of the glass windows, leaving only the gloomy yellow sand.

He turned around blankly and walked towards the office door.

At this moment, a female voice suddenly called him softly: "Miguel."

Miguel turned around abruptly.

On the glass window, the yellow sand formed a woman's face. While choking on the yellow sand, she spoke softly: "My love, you can't escape."

...

"Congratulations, Sage Duke, the stars have chosen you to activate the will of the stars, to listen to the teachings of the stars to mankind, and also to enlighten mankind."

The dean of the Knights' Abbey, Dunn Longqilance, rushed back to the Knights' Abbey immediately after the meeting of the stars.

And met Duke who had been waiting for a long time.

"Dean Dunn, I don't understand what you mean." Duke said in surprise. His debut time is too short, and he knows too little about the Seven Towers Federation.

Although I have read a lot of books in Offata, they are more about knowledge in various fields.

Dunn explained: "Just now, Chairman Thursas proposed that you activate the will of the stars that is about to wake up. Some people support it, and some people oppose it. In the past, the records were basically opened by the arcane teacher, and you were the first one. 2 Ring Arcane Mage."

After a pause, he added: "At least the first ring-2 arcane mage to activate the will of the stars in the past thousand years."

In the early days of the establishment of the Seven Towers Federation, the level of the arcanists was generally very low, and the level of the arcanists who activated the will of the stars was also low.

After the arcane mages break through the 6th ring and enter the 7th and 8th rings, it is basically the arcane teacher who will activate the will of the stars.

"This...is there any point in opening the will of the stars?"

"You should know the function of the Tower of Stars, which is astrology, to find the enlightenment of spiritual mysteries from the astrology. But astrology is always too vague, and the revelation is also faintly visible. Only the will of the stars wakes up every hundred years, which can directly bring enlightenment."

"Bring enlightenment directly?"

"Yes, more than 3,500 years have passed since the ancestors of the arcane masters found the will of the stars. Thirty-five revelations have helped us to clear away the fog of spiritual arcana, improve the level step by step, and establish today's prosperous civilization. "

the end.

Dunn said: "All in all, being able to activate the will of the stars will also have a lot of benefits for you personally... What are the specific benefits, you have to experience it yourself."

Godiva Storm Sword interjected: "Wait for the Tower of Stars, I should pick you up to prepare to activate the Will of the Stars."

"Yes, the Tower of Stars will pick you up, but for lunch at noon, stay in the Knights' Monastery." Dunn said with a smile, "On behalf of the old knights, I would like to welcome Duke to join you...Others Not to mention, I will practice "Duke's Leap" first."

As Godiva said before, Dunn was very excited about "Duke's Leap" and couldn't wait to start practicing.

Even at the luncheon, I simply drank a few drinks with Duke, then left in a hurry to continue my research.

"Master Dean has such a personality. The dean has practiced all the fighting qi and martial arts circulating in the entire Federation. It can be said that there is no fighting qi and martial arts that the dean can't know." Godifer put his arms around Duke, "Come on, let me try again. A toast to you!"

"Eh..." Duke couldn't stand the enthusiasm of the old riders.

"Sage Duke, I also offer you a toast. Although I don't know much about the will of the stars, you can be selected to activate the will of the stars, which shows that you are destined to be a member of the stars in the future." Another vice president, Kang Bao Frostwolf Pick up the wine glass.

Kang Bao Frostwolf's family did not come from the Stormwind Empire, but a traditional arcanist family, but he himself had a special liking for the way of knights.

"Thank you for your kind words." Duke raised his glass and drank.

After a luncheon, he was so drunk that his eyes were hazy, but when the luncheon was over, Duke immediately activated his grudge to refine the alcohol.

The whole person returned to the usual sobriety.

The staff of the Stars Tower also just rushed over: "Sage Duke, our Chief Director of the Stars Tower, Mr. Muse, invites you to the Stars Tower for discussion."

"Okay." Duke got on the reception shuttle.

Mu Lali, Vivian and the others took another shuttle and followed behind, leaving Pegasus Island City together and returning to the Holy City of Alfa.

Not long.

Duke met the chief director of the Tower of Stars, the instructor of the 7-ring Huiyue Arcana, the sage of astrology, the chief sage of the Tower of Alpha, and Muse.

The first feeling is like a kind old grandma.

But the aura unconsciously emanating from her body made Duke deeply feel the powerful power like facing an abyss.

Every instructor of the arcane method will exude this kind of aura called star abyss.

"I have seen Lord Muse." Duke bowed and saluted.

Muse stretched out her hand and signaled, "Please sit down, Duke."

Then he said: "You should already know that the meeting of the stars passed a decision, choosing you to start the next hundred years of the will of the stars."

"I see."

"Half of the arcane instructors agree to choose you, and half of the arcane instructors disagree to choose you. When they can't agree, I will exercise the authority of the chief director of the Stars Tower and choose you to open the will of the stars." Muse said, "The reason It's simple, you are the most spiritually favored."

"Um, what does this have to do with spiritual care?"

"The will of the stars is also a part of the true spiritual sea. Those who are most favored by spirituality can also deeply feel the revelation of the will of the stars. You are the youngest 2-ring arcane mage, the only light of the three-linked erudite tower, and the youngest erudite sage, Now that the Ring of Branding has been invented, there is nothing more spiritually favored than this."

Duke nodded in understanding.

It's like building a relationship.

Duke has the best relationship with spirituality, and the will of the stars is also a part of spirituality, so in theory Duke has the best relationship with the will of the stars.

"What do I need to do?" asked Duke, before adding, "Is there any danger?"

Although it feels like there is only one chance in a century to activate the will of the stars, it is a great honor to be selected, but Duke must first ensure safety.

He is not stupefied, and he will not be killed easily.

"The worst result is to become a fallen demon, but there are 35 recorded times when the will of the stars was activated, and there is no such extreme situation. When the early spiritual arcana was blank, the first-level arcanist also activated the will of the stars , all is well."

Muse continued to explain: "Besides, now, there are arcane instructors guarding you, and the will of the stars can't affect you."

"However." Muse's words turned around, "There is no one hundred percent absolute safety in everything. I cannot deny that you don't have that one in ten thousand chance. You can't bear the influence of the will of the stars, lose yourself, and degenerate into a fallen demon. .”

She looked at Duke and said gently: "So, are you willing to accept this opportunity to activate the will of the stars?"

"Uh, let me ask one more question, the influence of the will of the stars, what does it affect, does it affect my mind?"

"According to the existing records, the will of the stars will affect the spiritual sea, and it will be projected in your spiritual sea to perform a spiritual enlightenment. You may not be able to bear this kind of enlightenment, and you will be affected by the will of the stars and forget yourself. "

"Does it work in the spiritual sea..." Duke's eyes lit up.

Then he nodded without hesitation and said: "Since the stars have chosen me, Lord Muse, I am naturally willing to take on this sacred mission!"

His spiritual sea is not only protected by the mysteries of the three tree kings, but also has the existence of Jiuhuan Xiaoyi.

When it comes to the stalwart power of the Nine Rings, how can the will of the stars be able to influence it? With Xiaoyi protecting Linghai, there is nothing wrong with it.

What's more, there are also the guardians of the arcane teachers.

"I respect your choice." Muse nodded, "In this month, you will live in the Holy City of Arcane, waiting for the astrological results to determine the time to activate the will of the stars. Don't go far, once there is a suitable opportunity, The will of the stars will be activated anytime, anywhere."

"Okay, Lord Muse."

"Then you can go to the library of the Tower of Stars for a stroll. There are many experience talks left by the ancestors who opened the will of the stars."

"clear."

Duke took his leave from Muse's office, and immediately a young female Arcane Master led him the way: "Sir Duke, please go this way for the library."

On the way, the female arcanist chattered non-stop: "Master Duke, you are really amazing, you are only 22 years old this year, but you already have two titles of sages, and you have also been selected to activate the will of the stars. cannot!"

"So-so." Duke smiled.

This female Arcane Mage staff member has an ordinary appearance and cannot arouse his interest in chatting.

"You are not ordinary. You are destined to be a member of the stars in the future. Almost everyone firmly believes that." The female arcanist said, "And you are also a great writer. You wrote "Romeo and Juliet", novels, phantoms, etc. I have watched it countless times, and I cried so much!"

Soon to the library.

The female Arcane Master hurriedly said again: "Master Duke, what book are you looking for, let me help you find it, I am very familiar with the library."

"Um, actually...no need." Duke pointed to the door, "Go and do your work, I'll just take a look here."
