Thirty-one find a wizard to be a mentor
As the two of them entered the territory of Loga City, the surrounding scenery gradually became prosperous.
The endless farmland, well-connected irrigation ditches, and the manors and small castles dotted on it all show the richness of this land.
The farmers driving the ox cart and the merchants rushing to the road passed by Su Ming from time to time.
These people were at least wearing thick linen clothes and shoes, with a strong body and no trace of dish on their faces.
Especially those farmers, their eyes were quiet and gentle, and when they looked at their fields, they looked very focused and poured all their enthusiasm into them.
Only people living in a stable environment can have such a mental outlook, which is in sharp contrast to the anxiety, irritability and despair of Wildfire City.
"In fact, Wildfire City also had this view twenty years ago." The elf sitting on the horse suddenly said.
"How did it turn out like this later?" Su Ming was not surprised after hearing this. The ruins of the manor in the Dimont wilderness illustrate the grand scene of Wildfire City in the past.
Tiya's face showed a look of memories, and she sighed: "Because of a large-scale orc invasion, the Baron of Wildfire City at that time had thirty powerful knights and more than two thousand soldiers. But after one battle, the entire army was almost wiped out. The Baron's eldest and second son were killed by the orcs, leaving only the youngest son, the current Baron."
To this day, Tiya still clearly remembers the war: the civilians who cried loudly, fled in despair; the knights who roared to death, and were eventually submerged in the orc tide, until the last desolate and quiet ruins, which made her heart tremble, who was hiding in the dark and watching all this.
Human beings are mostly despicable, but in times of crisis, they can always show their radiant noble qualities.
In the endless forest, the quiet and elegant elf will never have such tragic and passionate blood that makes people tremble.
Su Ming listened carefully, but at the end, he couldn't help asking: "Tia, can you tell me how old you are?"
This scary sentence awakened the elf who was trapped in memory. She gave Su Ming a blank look before saying, "It has been about two hundred years since I realized that I existed to this day. The specific time has been too long and I can't remember it."
Su Ming was so shocked that he almost bit his tongue.
He always thought that this elf was only ten years old, but he didn't expect that he had lived for more than two centuries, and his two lives combined for less than half of hers.
This is what the humans on the mainland whose average life span is less than 60 years old are feeling!
After saying this, some of his ambiguous thoughts that he had left for this elf disappeared immediately.
"You are so long-lived." Su Ming sighed.
When talking about life span, Tiya used a proud tone for the first time: "Of course, as long as the mother tree of life does not wither, the life span of the elves will be endless, unless they choose to die. Unlike humans, when they first came to this world, they opened their eyes and looked at it, they had to leave regretfully."
Su Ming didn't care and shrugged, "For individuals, it may be pretty good. But for civilizations, longevity is not a lucky thing. On the contrary, only rapid blood replacement can make a civilization full of vitality and not be eliminated by the long river of time."
In the past life, with human technical level, they could achieve immortality, but even so, few people could live beyond 500 years old and eventually chose to die naturally.
Some old perverts have been living for a thousand years. In the end, although they are still young, their spirits are no longer fluctuating. Nothing in the world can attract their interest, and there is no difference between them and death.
Life and time without pursuit join forces to become a dose of unsolvable chronic poison, gnawing on the survival of long-lived human beings**.
After eating, the man died.
Hearing Su Ming's words, the elf was shocked and looked at Su Ming in front of him deeply, feeling a little confused for a moment.
"Tia, you said you know human spells, can you teach me?" Su Ming turned his head and looked at the elf with hope in his eyes.
He is not a philosopher, and he is more interested in spells than discussing the issues of profound nothingness.
"Humans have profound magic. If you want to continue learning along the way, you need not only talent, but also a lot of money to support you, and even more power. Although you have talent, it is very difficult to keep going."
To be honest, Tiya has seen many geniuses in the human world for a century, but most of them are buried in the countryside, or have limited achievements, and have not received the opportunity to support their development.
The construction of the mage tower, the acquisition of intermediate or above spell structures, the elemental balance robe of the high-level mage, etc. are all priceless treasures that can be stunning. Each level can hold a talented mage there for the rest of his life and be unable to move!
From this perspective, higher-level mages or above are actually privileges monopolized by great nobles.
The 100 99 of the top teachers who appeared in human history came from the upper class aristocrats, with few exceptions from those geniuses who appeared once in a thousand years!
Such geniuses are already unlimited by external factors such as power, money, etc. They came to the world to stand at the top.
Ironically, as these geniuses reach the top, it represents the rise of a new great noble, which further consolidates this monopoly.
"You can teach me simple things first, such as the configuration of the low-resistance potion in the fire element." He wanted to learn spells, but it was impossible for him to shrink back when he heard the difficulties.
There are many difficult things in the world, but people still do it.
When Tiya heard Su Ming's words, she couldn't help laughing: "Su, you don't even know the basic element theory, just want to enter the difficult alchemy field, haha."
Tiya smiled happily, but it affected the injuries on her body and began to cough violently.
Su Ming could smell the bloody smell of her coughing from her breath as he was far away. He quickly stepped forward and stroked her back and helped her to keep her breath. He asked worriedly, "I think you seem to have hurt your lungs, is it really okay?"
Tiya waved her hand, glanced at Su Ming sideways, and said angrily: "If you, a little villain, had used the 'Praise of Life' in the robe, I would have been cured now. Don't worry, it doesn't matter if my injury is not important, it will be healed in five days."
As she talked about her age, Tiya spoke casually to Su Ming, and she was not very concerned about the use of words, which made Su Ming a little embarrassed.
She was silent for a while and said solemnly: "Su, I can teach you spells, but you must promise me that when you achieve success in your studies, you will help me do something."
"What's up?"
"I will tell you the specific things when you are strong enough. Okay, you can swear to the Lord of the Holy Light now. Don't worry, it's not about the human world, otherwise the Lord of the Holy Light's testimony will be invalid."
If you want to gain strength, you have to pay a price, and not everyone has this opportunity to choose.
When the opportunity came, he seized it. Su Ming did not hesitate and immediately swore: "The Lord of the Holy Light testified, I, Su, if one day the magical knowledge is successful, the Elf Tiya will be realized. Xingye has a wish."
The Lord of the Holy Light is a real god. Under his witness, Su Ming did not dare to test the law with his own eyes and violated his oath, which would lead to God's punishment.
On the mainland, in the history of tens of thousands of years, no one can withstand the punishment of God. They are all the consequences of being crushed to pieces, their souls being imprisoned, and forever torture.
I just don’t know what kind of difficulties this elf will give him in the future. Since it is not about the human world, it is definitely about the elf.
All the elves' affairs are under the jurisdiction of the Goddess of Life. I don't know if swearing to the Lord of the Holy Light is considered to be crossing the line.
