375 The Medal (2/2)
”Ice and Snow Realm, also called Ice Halo, a seventh-circle spell, can last three minutes when the full range is activated; When casting in a smaller range, it can last up to fifteen minutes. The wearer can use it three times a day.
”The unearthly coldness from the Hell of Silence can freeze one's soul, and so can the seventh-circle spell, Silence Coffin, which derives from the coldness. The freezing ray that is able to damage one's soul can be cast by the wearer three times a day. But remember, since the temperature of the ray is not extremely low, the damage it can do to one's body is limited, and when a radiant knight is prepared, the ray will not be able to penetrate the radiant knight's body and freeze his or her soul. At the same time, due to its special properties, the effect of most defensive spells will be ignored.
”To approach the absolute zero is the lifetime pursuit for every sorcerer who specializes in Ice and Snow magic. Although several legendary spells have already shown us the great power when the temperature approaches the absolute zero, we are not able to figure out the theories behind them, and this is preventing us from moving forward.
”Many thanks to Mr. Lucien Evans for his discovery of Helium and the new Ice and Snow magic that he invented. We are now able to reach the range where we are only one degree Celsius from the absolute zero, which is a great breakthrough in Ice and Snow magic. Mr. Lucien Evans has brought us into a new era in the history of Ice and Snow magic!
”Year 819, Month of Gold, to acknowledge Mr. Lucien Evans' great contribution to the school of Thermodynamics in the field of Ice and Snow magic.
”The greatest dream among all the ice and snow mages–the absolute zero.
”From Hellen Paris.”
”It is much better than the Holm Crown ring…” Lucien swallowed hard out of great excitement. Although the medal only had one enchanted magic effect, the enchanted seventh-circle was already alluring enough.
Without any doubt, the value of the medal was above the ring's, not to mention the Immortal Throne magic robe. Only the Sun's Corona that Lucien was wearing, whose the third layer of the seal was going to be released, could match the value of the medal.
At this time, Lucien heard the swallowing again. At first, Lucien thought that it was from himself, but when he turned around, he saw Alferris' big eyes staring at him, twinkling.
”Alferris, you know what you need to do now,” Lucien grinned.
Alferris, carrying Lucien's magic robe and the many magic items, instantly took a few steps back from Lucien and shook its head in grief. After a great inner struggle, Alferris finally gave them back to Lucien.
When Lucien was wearing the magic items, a good idea suddenly stroke him. Lucien turned around with a big smile and asked, ”Would you like to have a ring, Alferris?”
As he was saying, Lucien took out a ring, the Ice Revenger.
”Yes, yes!” Alferris nodded hard. Although it knew that the ring was not very valuable, the beautiful shape and the shining precious stone was still very tempting.
Lucien felt that he was lying to a little kid, grinning like a wolf grandmother, ”Give me two tubes of your blood. And I will give the ring to you.”
Alferris was good at casting illusion spells. So if Lucien could have its blood as casting reagent, the effect was going to be great.
”Blood?” Alferris was a bit surprised and it looked around and then said, ”My blood is expensive!”
”Alright, then,” Lucien was about to put back the ring.
”Wait, wait, deal!” Aferris hurriedly stopped Lucien before he made any further movement. It quickly took out two magic tubes and drew its blood into them. Losing this small amount of blood would not affect a dragon at all.
...
In the early morning after a week, Lucien had mastered Advanced Fly.
After checking carefully, Lucien cast Disguise on himself and left for the magic train station.
In the air of Allyn, Angwoods was watching Lucien's every single movement with a creepy smile. As a senior-rank specter, it could see through most of the disguises, and also invisibility.
As the creature summoned by Felipe, from the materials Felipe got for the rite for Lucien, Angwoods knew that Lucien was rushing into becoming a senior-rank. Angwoods had expected that Lucien was going to leave Allyn. So when Felipe completely devoted himself to his experiment, Angwoods would come here to watch Lucien.
However, afraid of being detected by Sun's Corona, Angwoods could only follow Lucien a long distance away from him.
Lucien spent half a day on the magic steam train and arrived at the big city in the south of the Kingdom of Holm. Then, he flew to the remote mountains and found a hidden cave in there. Lucien entered the cave.
Landing outside of the cave, Angwoods was a bit hesitant. If it was going to follow Lucien in the cave, very likely he was going to lose the target, as it could not approach Lucien.
Angwoods thought for a moment and decided to follow Lucien into the cave. It would stay out of the detection range of Sun's Corona and use prophecy magic to locate him.
