Chapter 19 The Power of Spells
"Three Principles of a Mage?" Hearing this unfamiliar term, Gothe's heart moved, and at the same time he secretly wrote down this principle in his heart.
"It was Elan who said it. He said Master Seda told him," Amy explained: "But he only said this one, and he didn't say the other two."
"Why did Elan say this to you?"
"Also, since "never let others know your spells" is one of the three rules of a mage, how could Master Seda let you know his spells? ”
Gaode frowned slightly and asked without leaving any trace.
Hearing Gothe's question, Amy understood Gothe's meaning and quickly explained: "Elan had said it before when he was showing off to us in the restaurant to show off his status as Master Seda's true apprentice." If Elan hadn't said it, how would we have known about it. "
"As for Master Seda's spell, do you still remember? When Master Seda asked Neo to test the medicine six months ago, Neo was scared and wanted to run away
He ran to the backyard, and I happened to be there at the time. I saw with my own eyes that Master Seda just stretched out his hand and touched Neo, and Neo collapsed to the ground."
“If that spell can take effect without physical contact, why would Master Seda do anything unnecessary?” Amynou pursed her lips and said with absolute certainty.
"Like this." Gao De thought thoughtfully.
What Amy said was reasonable and he believed it in his heart.
At the same time, I thought that on the first day I came to this world, I also experienced the magic of Master Seda.
That hand that could bring him great pain makes Gothe still feel frightened when he thinks about it.
"It seems that Master Seda has at least two spells that can only take effect through contact.
Therefore, if we really come to the last step and confront him, we must first try to avoid physical contact with him." Gothe secretly paid attention, and his thoughts began to spread.
"In addition to avoidance, is it possible to take advantage of this?"
"I know, go to bed early, we have to work when we get up tomorrow." While thinking about it, Gothe said softly.
Amy did not get the response she expected from Gothe. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say. In the end, she could only remain silent.
Not long after, the sound of Gothe's steady breathing after falling asleep was heard in the room.
The next day, afternoon.
After completing the preparation of the primary spider poison potion early, Gothe left the workshop and went to the business district of Hogan City for the third time.
He did not notice that in the shadow of the trees directly opposite the medicine garden gate, three pairs of eyes lit up at the same time.
The owners of the eyes are three thin but strong men.
Everyone is unkempt, with wine stains on their messy beards, greasy and tangled hair, and unwashable oil stains on their clothes
This is the physical appearance of people at the bottom.
The three of them all have cunning and aggressive eyes, so they are obviously not good people.
After the three of them watched Gaode go away, they began to discuss in a low voice.
"Boss, is it him?" the man with the darkest skin asked.
"That's him. I've asked around. The old mage from Seda Medicine Garden rarely goes out. Whether he's selling potions or buying raw materials, he lets his apprentices do it for him.
It's just that the person in charge of this was an older apprentice before, and he was recently replaced by this boy. "
The man known as the boss spoke. His voice was a bit sharp, which did not match the ferocious look in his eyes. Instead, it was a bit like a rooster.
Do you want to do it? "
"If we really have to be wary of the old mage, what's the point of worrying about such a little baby?"
"Mage apprentices at this age don't have much fighting power and can only master one or two tricks."
"And there is a high probability that it is a non-lethal trick like Mage's Hand. The three of us have worked in the mines for so many years. Who can't take down such a little brat without our own strength?"
Among the 0-level spells, Mage's Hand can be said to be the most well-known and representative trick. It is also basically a spell that every mage apprentice must learn and be the first to master.
So even if many people are not magicians, they all know this spell.
"Lao San, you are still too timid." Lao Er echoed Lao Da Dao.
"This boy didn't bring a package with him on this trip, so he wasn't going to sell potions, but to buy raw materials for the old mage." The man called the boss said again.
"I've also asked. The old mage seems to have been researching a high-level magic potion in recent years. The raw materials required are extremely precious and expensive, so this kid must have a lot of money with him."
h He drove to Hogan City to find another way to make a living in Bremen City. After doing this, he left immediately. No matter how great the old mage was, he would definitely not be able to find us to settle the score.”
“When will we do it?” Lao San asked again.
will be chaotic and difficult to trace; this can delay a little longer, long enough for us to leave Hogan City, and ensure that there will be no accidents.
To go to the Hogan City business district, the dark and dirty section of the slum area is still the only way to go.
But compared to the last two times, Gothe, who has newly mastered three 0-level spells, is undoubtedly more confident this time and no longer needs to lower his head and be cautious.
Besides, even if the slums are a mixed bag and there are many thieves and rogues, under normal circumstances, how could he, a plainly dressed civilian, encounter so many accidents in broad daylight?
But Gothe forgot one thing. The reason why accidents are called accidents is precisely because they are unexpected.
At this moment, I just walked to the intersection from an alley to the street. Because it was an alley, my vision was a little dim, and I couldn't see any shadows.
It was under this circumstance that he felt a slight chill on the back of his head and heard the sound of strong wind in his ears.
Sneak attack!
And it was aimed at his head.
Gothe reacted immediately, but it was already too late. In a hurry, he just instinctively bent his body to lower the point of attack and avoid his head, which was a vital part.
Gothe's body's instinctive reaction prevented him from having his head explode, but he was hit in the back. The strong force made Gothe let out a muffled groan and staggered.
Feeling the burning pain from his back, Gothe made the most correct response at the moment. Following the force, he rolled like a donkey and successfully avoided the second attack that followed.
He quickly stood up and saw clearly the black hand that attacked him.
Three rather strong men, each holding a wooden stick in their hands, were looking at themselves with fierce eyes - one vote is worth one vote, but the three of them were not prepared to kill anyone.
Although they are vicious, they are not extremely vicious.
Besides, he was just preparing to rob money, and he didn’t have any deep grudge against Gaode. How could he be tempted to kill people under normal circumstances?
Hit the person unconscious with a sap, then plundered all the money, and then ran away.
"Fortunately it's just a stick." Gaode secretly rejoiced.
If the attacker had a murder weapon, he would be in danger now.
"Who are you? Why did you attack me!" Gothe asked sharply.
“Young man, you react quickly. Hand over your money and we will let you go!” The leading man stared at Gothe and threatened.
"It turned out to be a robbery." Only then did Gothe understand. He felt that since he came to this world, he had almost no contact with the outside world, how could he offend others.
However, Gaode is not prepared to spend money to eliminate disasters.
Furthermore, he only has dozens of silver coins on him, and this small amount of money will definitely not satisfy the three villains in front of him.
Thinking like this, Gaode has already raised his hand.
A ray of cold blue light burst out from his fingertips.
This ray of light was as fast as lightning, flying straight towards the leading man, leaving a crystal clear trail.
The rays appeared very suddenly and very quickly.
In addition, Gothe's rolling as a donkey did not put him far away from the three of them. The attack in this situation made it impossible for people to react.
The reason why Gothe asked the three people about their identities was that he never expected them to answer the question.
The reason why he spoke out was just to distract the three people's attention a little and buy himself time to cast the spell.
The ray directly hit the leading man, and with a subtle ice cracking sound, a thin layer of ice instantly condensed on the leading man's skin.
He felt a chill that penetrated into his bones and severe pain, and his expression was distorted by the cold pain.
Freeze ray!
