    The candlelight in the grotto hall was dim. The fierce battle just now caused half of the lighting settings to be lost, making it look very eerie. Kay felt a chill creep up his spine and to the top of his head.  "Sir, you misunderstood, how could I plot against you." The boy's expression was just right, a little aggrieved in the panic, his eyebrows lowered and his mouth pouted.  "The first time I noticed you was not by chance. I changed three places, a theater, a dessert shop, and finally a restaurant. You appeared in my field of vision three times. Each time, you were not very conspicuous, but you would be seen. You are right  "I understand the terrain and psychology." "That's because you were dressed very luxuriously, so I followed you." "The second time I met you, I saw your "brave and fearless" quality. It doesn't mean that I understand human nature.  Too dark and selfish, but you acted too eagerly. Moreover, the two boys hiding behind you did not have enough mental quality, and their eyes were timid, but the performance of the girl named Mina was lifelike. Did you rehearse it?  , Kai spoke, no longer pretentious about his grievances.  "Yes, Mina is very talented in this area. We have made predictions for this situation, but it has nothing to do with her. The idea is all mine." "Now that we have started, the rest will be more enjoyable." Lesatos said  With a snap of his fingers, he summoned a ball of light green gelatinous liquid, whose shape kept changing. It had eyes and a mouth, and made a gurgling sound.  The mutated slime made its body concave, turning it into a comfortable sofa, and Lesatos buried himself in it.  Kai looked at the slime’s innocent little eyes, full of uncontrollable curiosity.  "You are like an ordinary nouveau riche in the city, but in the eyes of me and other thieves and information dealers in this city, you are as dazzling as a torch at night. You did not come in through the gate of Razor City, which is easy to verify.  I thought you were a second-generation ancestor who slipped out. This kind of person usually overestimates his abilities and becomes overflowing with sympathy at the slightest flattery. I wanted to lure you into the religion, and then find an opportunity for you to take me and Mina away and escape.  "It sounds like I'm not the first 'victim'." "I've tried it a few times before, but" Kai curled his lips.  " "Continue, how did the plan change? " "I accidentally saw you conjuring a bag of gold coins out of thin air. I realized that you and the God Envoy were the same kind of people. Maybe I could kill him.  Have a grudge?" Kai gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Yes! Mina's grandfather took us in. Although he was an alcoholic and bad old man, he always took it out on us when he was in a bad mood, but he saved my life that day.  After being caught by the city guard, the old man jumped on me to block the violent stamping. Afterwards, he said to me with blood flowing, "You will be under my control from now on. If you dare to steal anything, I will break your claws." "The old man has a bad temper."  He was very stubborn and very poor. After earning a few loaves of black bread, he still cursed at our feet and told us to eat fast. He said that he was very popular with his employer. In fact, we all know that there is no such thing as being popular.  He worked hard for 16 hours a day and ate half-sour vegetable leaves and bread crumbs. All his wages were exchanged for this bit of black bread.  "Even when we were the poorest, he didn't allow us to be thieves on the streets." Kaye's voice became lower and lower, tears escaping from his eyes.  "Laterthe messenger of the gods came." The boy's twisted expression reminded Lesatos of Drusilia.  "He said he wanted to raise funds to worship the Dragon God, so he recruited many low-level people like us. At first, he didn't even have the money to print flyers, so he asked us to stealThe old man stepped forward."  At this point, he couldn't bear it anymore and started sobbing, "Grandpa, why are you so stupid? He's just going back to his old business. What's the matter? As long as he doesn't be so stubborn, he won't let me remove his shriveled body from him.  Throw it off the cliff" The boy's sad cry echoed in the hall.  Lesatos was also in a low mood. He sighed and said: "It is true that he is stupid and does not know how to adapt. But in this world, it is because of such fools that the innocence of life can continue." "So," Kay adjusted his mood very well.  Quickly, take a deep breath and wipe away your tears, "I want him to die! I had an idea when I saw you. Okay, I've said everything I need to say. I'm using you to risk your life. You can do whatever you want with me."  , But it has nothing to do with Mina and the others." Lesatos patted the slime beneath him, and the jelly-like translucent mud monster changed its shape and made room. "Come, sit here." Kai sat down obediently.  Around Toss, the precocious child knew the pros and cons, and the childish emotion of anger stayed away from him early.  Kai sat down carefully and touched the slime with his hand. It felt cool and soft, more comfortable than the noble velvet mattress he had stolen before.  "Your talent is good, but it's just good. You need to learn arcane magic."The road' Kai looked up in surprise: "Are you willing to accept me?" Lesatos shook his head, the boy was disappointed.  "I am a tolerant person, but that doesn't mean I like to be used, so you can't become my student directly. You have to take responsibility for making mistakes, do you understand?" "Yes, sir." Kay lowered his head, full of emotions.  Secretly, he could hear that there was a lot of room for maneuver in Lesatos' tone.  "My profession is a mage. I am a pathfinder who explores the truth of the multiverse. I am not a messenger of a certain god. It is forbidden to believe in other gods without my permission. Faith and knowledge are not contradictory, but knowledge will be contaminated by immature beliefs."  "Does that mean I can't pray to anyone?" Lesatos hesitated, then turned over his hand and took out a silver divine emblem with golden stars and deep nebulae depicted on it.  "This is the emblem of the good god Bahamut. You can respect him as the 'Lord of the North Wind'. If you feel confused and painful, just pray to him." Kai recited the name of the god twice silently and solemnly accepted the god.  emblem.  "The four elements to become a mage are talent, inheritance, diligence, and wealth. You have the first one, and you have to rely on yourself for the second two. Now I will give you the most important one - inheritance." Lesatos handed Kaye a copy  The book was an ordinary book in size and thickness, but the cover was inlaid with dragon-style decorations, that is, gems, which made the boy's breath a little stagnant.  The book cover is some kind of unknown carapace, smooth and hard.  The spine of the book was sewn with gold thread, and on the cover, colorful gems formed a pattern. No matter how Kai looked at it, he thought it was a dragon claw that opened upward, with blue flames burning in the center of the claw.  He glanced at Lesatos and didn't dare to ask any more questions.  Opening the cover, there is a silver plate title page. It is smooth and bright, with a patterned border, but not a single word.  At the back is the table of contents, which has 10 pages, but except for the seven or eight names on the first page, the others are all blank book titles.  Turning back further, the main text is completely blank.  Kai looked at Lesatos in confusion, while the golden dragon shrugged irresponsibly.  The boy had no choice but to figure it out on his own, flipping back to the catalog and struggling to decipher the first line of text, "Analysis of the Structure of the Multiverse."  At this moment, he suddenly discovered that the blank book was filled with dense writing and a large number of illustrations.  He understood immediately and looked at the second line of the catalog, "Principles of Thought Derivation and Meditation," and the text suddenly changed.  Kai was so excited that he switched the contents of the magic book back and forth.  "After learning these eight books, can I use magic?" "No." Lesatos said simply.  Kai's face drooped. He felt that this teacher liked to play tricks on others and see others disappointed.  "Mage is a very complicated profession that requires a lot of basic knowledge. These are just for entry. This book is called 'Scroll of the Origin Sea', a self-study tool I made. Some apprentices are suitable for well-behaved academies, and some are suitable for formal academic schools.  Apprentices are suitable for the free-range self-taught school, and I prefer the latter. Every once in a while, the tasks assigned by me will be displayed on the title page, and if you complete one, you will get an additional book in the catalog. In addition, you can also get ' after completing the tasks.  "Fate points?" "Points can be exchanged for spell-casting materials, research settings, and most importantly - spells from the following catalogs. Each spell must be exchanged for fate points.  This setting is to satisfy human beings' sense of fulfillment. Seeing the rewards of hard work become visible to the naked eye can make you more motivated. " "It's very good. It's like the mythical wishing well. You can put coins in and get treasures," Kay said happily.  explain.  "If you are too greedy and don't make the right decisions, you will fall into the wishing pool and drown." Lesatos smiled again, making the boy uneasy.  "If the mission fails, you will lose double points. If the points drop below 0, I will take back all the knowledge and derived wealth. Don't think it is difficult to dig out things from your brain. By then, you will still be a wandering thief with nothing." Kaye is nervous.  Nodding: "I understand, incompetent people are not worthy of knowledge." "Yes, stupidity is the original sin of the mage, remember it." "Thencan I overdraw my destiny points first, now?" Lesatos has a black line on his head.  : "Greed is alsoforget it, what do you want." Kay pointed at the slime that acted as a sofa: "It, I like it." Lesatos was a little surprised, this silly slime was a golden dragon magic experiment  The product of the monster, he wanted to fuse the shapeshifter with the slime to create a biological camouflage technique that resisted spell detection.  As a result, there were quite a few flaws, and the slime became a pet. When I was in a bad mood, I used it as a child's plasticine. I took it out and flattened it into a round shape, which was quite a relief.  "If you are discerning, I will pay you 50 points on credit as soon as possible." "Thank you, teacher." "Call me sir, you are not qualified to call me teacher." LesaToth corrected.  "It's yours. This guy can't speak and has limited intelligence, but he has many functions. I'll teach you." Lesatos stood up and gave the order to dehydrate the slime. The light green jelly sounded like a kitten.  The purring sound releases the water in the body and turns it into a puddle of liquid.  Lesatos fished out a completely transparent layer of glue from the liquid, with tiny eyes and mouth still visible.  Lesatos threw the slime onto Kai, where it hung from the boy's body and penetrated through his collar.  Kai felt slightly cold, as if he was wearing a tight-fitting silk. He opened his collar and saw that the slime was spread out and attached to his skin, turning into invisible clothes. Only its eyes and mouth were on the chest.  He looked at the boy.  "It can provide protection, and its main function is to transform. You can explore it yourself. Don't let me down when we meet next time." After finishing speaking, Lesatos teleported away.  In the hall, the candles were about to burn out. Kay curiously poked at the new clothes, feeling that the slime's innocent eyes were particularly cute.  At this time, the "Scroll of the Origin Sea" in his hand was slightly warm. He opened the book and found a line of words on the title page of the silver plate: Mission - Collect 500 gold coins or equivalent wealth within 3 hours, 10 destiny points, double deduction for failure.  Kay looked at it for a while, and excitedly discovered that these 10 points were given away for free. The divine envoy was dead, but the money he collected was still there. Three hours was enough for him to loot it all.  He happily went to the bedroom.  Lesatos withdrew his gaze. He never gave out meaningless tasks.  There must be negative energy traps in the warlock's bedroom and gold cabinet. If the child can't even get through this level, it's of no use.  “Forget it, it’s just a whim, just to see what kind of development it will have in the future.  Lesatos flapped his wings and flew back to Tia Forest.  ———————————————————————————— Beiming: Thank you everyone for your votes and rewards, and for being at the top of the list  Comparing the results of the three, I feel so disappointed. Sure enough, the name is at a disadvantage.
