Chapter 77 Silver Ring, Beautiful Sir
On the map given by Jerome, there is a huge shadow in the northwest of Hoddam wizarding land. The shadow is marked with the pattern of a huge ring on top of a silver tower. ——The silver ring represents the land that Ronan is seeing right now.
The distance between the two places on the map looks very short, but in fact Ronan traveled over mountains and rivers for more than two months before he actually arrived here.
Although we can already see the huge building complex that resembles a huge silver mountain peak, if we continue walking at this speed, it will probably take another three to five days.
Ronan thought for a while, took out a light green cat's eye stone ring from his arms, turned it gently, and his spiritual power surged out.
In an instant, a large number of free energy particles from all around gathered towards Ronan, Forming a unique arrangement, an invisible force emerged from under Ronan's body, lifted him up, and then flew forward quickly.
Flying Ring.
A serious first-level auxiliary magic tool. For a first-level official wizard, this thing is even more important than a storage bag. It is a symbol of a certain status and strength.
This flying ring was obtained from Laura. It is a classic female style. He cannot wear it, so he only uses it when needed.
Lola's flying ring is probably considered good even among first-level wizards. There are three first-level [acceleration] runes enchanted on it. If they are all activated, the flying speed can almost catch up with Ronan running at full speed on the ground. Half the time.
Although it is a little slower, continuous activation only consumes a small amount of mental energy. After turning on [The Realm of Sky and Brightness], it is equivalent to no consumption. Moreover, flying can ignore the terrain and will not be stained with dust or mud. As long as you pay attention when flying Just control the direction and don't collide with some birds without eyes.
Ronan flew through the last section of the wilderness and found that there was a huge empty valley in front of him.
Countless lights belonging to the rune array filled it, looming like a rainbow.
Behind the empty valley is a virgin forest so vast that the edge cannot be seen. If you look from top to bottom, to be precise, this should be a huge canyon.
Ronan saw large flocks of birds flying out of the virgin forest on the opposite side of the canyon. After entering the canyon, they hit the light of the rune circle and immediately fell into the valley like raindrops.
In the distance, there was a faint roar of a beast, echoing faintly in the canyon... It was the roar of a monster.
Ronan's body kept climbing upwards. As he looked at the canyon and forest below, the whole picture of the silver ring wizard's land above his head gradually appeared in front of his eyes——
Under the outline of the huge mountain peak, there are seven silver-white towers standing in a semi-ring shape.
It gradually gets lower from the middle to both sides, and it looks like a huge high-backed chair, a metal throne suspended between the sky and the earth.
The tower body of each tower that makes up the back of the "Throne" chair shimmers with a cold and noble silver luster, as if made of pure silver-white metal. Against the backdrop of countless flowing runes, it exudes an awe-inspiring atmosphere. The mysterious atmosphere.
Above the seven towers, a huge ring composed of countless metal blocks is suspended, scattered and assembled, slowly rotating, emitting strange bright or dark light, as if it contains endless mysteries and power.
Some floating island-like buildings dotted around seven silver-white towers and huge rings. Countless fluffy clouds flowed between the three. In Ronan's eyes, they combined to form an extremely shocking picture. , extremely majestic, and a fantasy and beautiful picture that aroused his endless reverie.
"Silver... Dharma Ring"
Ronan stared blankly at the scene in front of him, his body never stopping the upward trend under the influence of the flying ring. Finally, Ronan slowly fell on the silver ring like a particle of dust.
——A huge ring, a metal throne, in front of one of the seven silver-white towers.
The silver-white tower blocks the outline of the sun, and a large number of buildings are attached to the guard below. The huge translucent rune array light curtain completely covers these, and now Ronan is standing in a large arch similar to a gate within the light curtain. shaped metal building underneath.
He looked carefully at a round badge made of silver-like material in his hand, with the iconic pattern of the Dharma Ring printed on it. He could feel the faint fluctuations of energy particles coming from it when he held it in his hand.
There are runes inscribed inside, and a small piece of low-level magic stone is embedded in it to support its operation, but its function is only to allow free passage of light curtains and arches.
This is a key to enter and exit the Dharma Circle, or in other words, a temporary residence permit.
It was effective for one month, but it cost Ronan an entire intermediate magic stone.
“After a month is up, you have to continue spending money.”
Ronan let out a breath and looked up at the scene in front of him.
At this time, he was standing at the entrance of a "herringbone"-shaped street, surrounded by some beautiful buildings with a cold metal style. The floor tiles he stepped on seemed to be the product of some kind of alchemy, and the light of the rune array could be seen everywhere.
From time to time, magic airships flew overhead. Their shapes were very exquisite, far exceeding those that Ronan had seen in Hoddam.
He even saw a huge rune ship sailing slowly in the sky, blocking the sun and casting large shadows. He could vaguely see two people standing on the ship, and the mental power fluctuations emanating from them were not noticeable even if Ronan stood underneath. Can be clearly perceived.
Like two miniature suns, the light radiates everywhere it passes.
"Second level wizard?"
Ronan's eyes flickered. He didn't know clearly, but he was definitely a wizard who was at least ten times more powerful than him, and also stronger than Laura. It was a bit like the feeling he had when he first met Angele.
Don't forget, he was just an apprentice at that time, but now he is an official wizard who has stepped into the fog.
The rune ship moved away towards the silver tower, but Ronan's heart never calmed down for a long time.
His eyes fell back to the ground. There were many people walking around, only a few of them wore formal wizard robes, and most of them were dressed like ordinary mortals, but basically everyone was a wizard, and most of them were apprentices. Occasionally, one or two official first-level wizards can be seen.
While Ronan was looking around, a young man wearing a silver-gray short coat and black tight breeches came running straight towards him.
"Dear Sir, is this your first time in the Ring of Magic?
He greeted Ronan cautiously, exuding the mental fluctuations of a seventh-level apprentice.
Ronan nodded slightly, "Yes."
As if he felt that Ronan could be contacted, the young man breathed a sigh of relief, became a little more courageous, and said: "If you need a guide, I will be happy to help you.
With only five low-level magic stones, I can take you around the entire Seven Rings City. "
"Is Seven Ring City the name of this place?"
"To be precise, it's the entire place. Every inch of land covered by the brilliance of the Lord of the Seventh Dharma Ring also corresponds to the seventh silver-white tower of the Dharma Ring..."
The young man said quickly.
Ronan understood and then asked: "What's your name?"
"Jacob. Sir, my name is Jacob Vigils"
Ronan was dazed for no reason when he heard this name. He subconsciously thought of a fat blond guy he had met in the Hoddam Tree House area who liked to inquire about other people's gossip.
Ronan was immersed in his short memories and said nothing. Young Jacob stood aside and didn't know if he had said something wrong, looking slightly nervous.
But soon, he heard Ronan speak.
"Then please help me find a place to stay, Jacob."
The young Jacob met a pair of calm lake blue eyes, his expression suddenly relaxed, and a bright smile appeared on his face.
"It will be my pleasure to serve you, my lord."
A garden villa with a red roof, lawns, statues, and golden fountains. There are also two beautiful maids with fair skin who are busy with who knows what.
Ronan stood on the street, squinting and looking at a floating tower in the sky above his head. The scene on the island.
"grown ups."
A voice came from behind.
Ronan withdrew his gaze, and the villa garden and the maid quickly moved away from him. He turned around and saw Jacob standing at the door of a small hotel.
Blueberry Inn.
The signboard is inlaid with some luminous crystals for decoration. Unfortunately, several of the crystals have cracked and are dimly mixed in, destroying the overall beauty.
This is where Jacob brought him.
"grown ups."
Jacob called again, and then walked up quickly.
Xu saw that Ronan had been looking at the floating islands in the sky, and he took the initiative to explain in a low voice: "Those floating islands are not sold to the outside world at all. Only formal members of the second-level wizards of the Ring of Law and above are eligible to be approved for leasing. But I know that there are several floating islands that are functional public areas that you can go up and visit, if adults are interested."
"Let's talk about it later."
Ronan stopped Jacob and asked, "How is it?"
Jacob looked serious and replied: "The normal daily rent here is twenty low-level magic stones per day, and the monthly rent is five intermediate magic stones. I told them that the adults wanted to rent for a long time, so I cut the price to three RMB per month, and the rent only needs to be paid monthly.”
Twenty low-level magic stones a day, three intermediate magic stones a month
Listening to Jacob's story, Ronan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Compared with the original Hoddam, the rent of the house here is really sky-high. The price is sky-high.
But Hoddam is just a low-level wizard in a remote place. He was still in a town at the beginning, but now he is in the magic circle or within the protection of the rune magic circle. The ticket to enter requires an intermediate magic stone.
Ronan thought for a while and replied to Jacob: "Two pieces, two intermediate magic stones per month so we don't have to go to the next place."
"I'll go ask."
Jacob quickly turned around and ran into the store, and walked out quickly after half a minute.
"They agreed."
He said to Ronan, "But he said that we can only provide breakfast and afternoon tea at most. Lunch and dinner need to be dealt with by yourself."
Still taking care of the food?
Ronan was a little surprised. Two intermediate magic stones were almost at his psychological price.
After making the decision, he and Jacob walked towards the hotel.
The entrance was small, with old but clean carpets on the floor and a crystal chandelier overhead. A fat middle-aged man and a girl stood behind a long wooden counter and looked at them.
After they entered the door, the girl with beautiful blue woolen curly hair immediately came out from behind the counter and ran towards the two of them.
"Welcome to your stay, dear wizard."
The girl said welcome to Ronan, but she was very close to Jacob. There was a mischievous smile in the corner of her eyes, and her attention was almost entirely on Jacob.
Luonan nodded to the fat middle-aged man who was the store owner. After paying one month's rent, the man led him upstairs to move in.
Before leaving, I heard the blue-haired girl whispering to Jacob.
"My God Jacob, this gentleman is so beautiful!"
"Shut up Alida. It's very rude to talk about other people's looks behind their backs!"
"I'm telling the truth... He's much prettier than you..."
"."
Ronan looked around the room he was about to stay in.
It was bigger than he expected.
There are a total of three rooms inside and outside. In addition to the living room and sleeping area, there is also a small separate training room.
The overall environment was also good. Ronan checked the lighting in the room again and felt very satisfied.
"Give these to Jacob for me and thank him for his guidance."
Ronan counted out ten low-level magic stones from his storage bag and handed them to the fat shopkeeper, but he didn't plan to go any further.
The shopkeeper took the magic stone from Ronan and muttered, "What that boy did is not worth such a big tip." Then he respectfully said goodbye to Ronan, turned around and left, closing the door behind him.
"You can be considered settled."
Ronan sighed softly, sat down on the sofa in the living room, and relaxed.
After more than two months of long journey, and after experiencing a life-and-death battle, Ronan's body was fine, but mentally he was extremely tired.
He really wanted to have a good sleep now, but there were some things he hadn't finished yet.
After sitting for a while, Ronan stood up and walked into the bathroom.
After taking off his robe, he briefly washed his hands and face.
There was a silver half-length mirror in the bathroom. Ronan looked at himself in the mirror——
Very fair and delicate facial skin, with almost no wrinkles or blemishes visible.
The facial features are the same as before, but much more refined. The lines on the face have become softer and more perfect, and the blue in the eyes is deeper, just like the lake that brings infinite tranquility in autumn.
Ronan always felt that his whole body seemed to have a beautifying filter effect. He originally thought it was because the mirror was not clean enough, but later he realized that it was his skin that was "glowing" slightly.
The surface of his body exudes a very small and weak "force field", and almost no dust can fall on it.
"Is it the effect of [Pure Body]?"
Ronan touched his cheek and murmured to himself.
He simply took off his shirt, stripped off all his clothes, and then walked into the bathtub to rinse.
The warm water flows down the skin quickly, like mercury, leaving no trace.
Including his hair.
After more than two months, the long chestnut hair slowly turned back from the roots, and the roots were crystal clear. When wet with water and held in the hand, it looked like fine silk.
Ronan's appearance hasn't changed much from the first time, but he looks much better.
No wonder the blue-haired girl underneath would use the word "beautiful" to describe him.
"If the wizarding world can also eat soft food, do I have strong capital?"
Ronan feels that he is too "delicate" now and is considering whether to cut his long hair short.
After taking a shower, Ronan casually put on a clean robe and walked out of the bathroom. Ronan called up his character panel.
[Name: Ronan Damien]
【Age: 17】
[Talent: No Attribute Affinity, Immaculate Body (Active)]
[Strength: Level 1 official wizard (2%)]
[Skill: Basic Meditation - Realm of Empty Ming (Master 40/1600)
Energy Missile-Particle Torrent (Master 117/1600)
Charged Weapon-Spellbreaking Power (Master 132/1600)
Ascetic training (Master 1/1600)
Basic Swordsmanship (Master 204/1600)
】
In the first half of the skill bar on the panel, it is very comfortable to glance at the masters and masters at a glance.
Ronan had not wasted the past two months. Except for traveling, he was mostly meditating and practicing spells.
The growth in all aspects is obvious, except for strength and [Ascetic Exercise].
Putting aside the aspect of strength, Ronan had already expected this, mainly because he had entered the master-level [Ascetic Exercise]. After two months, his proficiency was still at the level when he first broke through, without even increasing by 1 point.
"This is obviously...because of the lack of follow-up cultivation techniques."
Ronan stared at his panel and frowned.
If a skill has a complete inheritance, no matter how difficult it is to improve the subsequent proficiency, you will at least gain some new experience and insights every time you practice it.
But [Ascetic Exercise] is not.
After reaching the master level, Ronan went back to practice the thirteen postures and movements. He practiced over and over again, practicing in different ways, but in the end he didn't get any gains at all.
This is also the main basis for Ronan's confirmation that the skill is incomplete.
