Chapter 326: The Origin of High Elves (10,000-character chapter)(1/4)
"Junior brother, do you think this magic ball from the elves is really as magical as the legend says?"
Third senior brother Long Qingquan played with the magic ball in his hand very curiously, his eyes filled with joy.
This is a magic ball that Zhao Xun persuaded the Elf King Odyssey to give to him.
There are only four groups in the continent of Ellen Lore that can use magic, and two are representatives of good, namely humans and high elves.
Two are representatives of evil, namely the undead tribe and the demon tribe.
Not to mention the black magic of the undead and demons.
But it is said that the magic of humans and high elves is fundamentally different.
Human magic originated in ancient times.
A long time ago, when humans were still ignorant, someone discovered the murals in caves.
These murals are obviously not left by humans, because humans at that period were still in a barbaric and uncivilized period.
They had just learned to use fire, but they didn't use it very well.
With the help of lit torches, they carefully observed the murals in the dark cave.
These murals are very exquisitely painted and describe the life scenes of the ancient times when gods dominated the world.
It is these murals that civilized mankind and allowed them to look at themselves from a completely different perspective.
Sometimes the ignorance of a person or even a tribe stems from their narrow perspective.
They could only see clearly the three-thirds of an acre of land in front of them.
And they can't see places that are a little further away.
It’s not that I don’t want to see it, it’s that I really can’t see it.
For a long time, people have been in an absolute circle, and it is difficult to get out.
This makes their vision very narrow.
The best way to achieve a breakthrough is to broaden your horizons and look far away.
But achieving this is not as simple as imagined.
It took a long time for the human race on the continent of Ellen Lore.
Even though they have been looking at the murals left by gods in the cave for decades, they still have not fully understood them.
Until one day, one of the ancient humans had an epiphany.
He learned the secrets from the murals.
And he told his tribe this secret.
Once it was passed down to ten, it was passed down to hundreds, and soon ancient humans were able to understand the life of God.
They learn the hard way like a baby learning to walk.
This process is more about imitation, but it is not easy to imitate it very closely.
The continent of Ellen Lore is full of dangers, and there are all kinds of ferocious beasts everywhere.
In addition to exploring and moving towards civilization, humans in ancient times also had to do something very important, which was to ensure the survival of their own race.
Only in this way can civilization be meaningful.
Fortunately, they found a balance between civilization exploration and survival.
"About after humans invented writing, they recorded the murals of gods in writing. From that era human society also began to have a division of labor. Some people were responsible for farming, some were responsible for fighting, and some were responsible for hunting.
, and some people became scholars. One of the most important tasks of scholars is to study the so-called civilized murals left by the gods in ancient times, and to peel off some of them that are useful to humans and imitate them. Probably starting from that time,
A magician appears."
"Well, from what you said, little junior brother, the emergence of magic is not an accident?"
Third senior brother Long Qingquan was stunned for a moment.
"Of course it's not an accident. In fact, behind all accidental events there is necessity."
Zhao Xun dropped his book bag and then said in a deep voice: "Third senior brother, what do you think? Accidental events themselves are of course accidental, but a bunch of accidental events can no longer be said to be accidental, right? The ancient humans of that period were more
Most of them seek rules from imitation. When they find the rules, it is inevitable. The rules are guest phenomena and a kind of induction."
When it comes to theory, Zhao Xun is a well-deserved expert.
He spoke eloquently and his spittle flew everywhere.
I just didn't control the intensity very well, and it just sprayed onto the face of Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan.
"Uh, I'm sorry, Third Senior Brother. I was too involved and excited when I said it."
Zhao Xun quickly took out the handkerchief he carried with him, came close to Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan and wiped it for him: "Third Senior Brother, I know you won't blame me, right?"
Zhao Xun looked pitiful, and Long Qingquan couldn't laugh or cry.
The junior brother really understands him very well and knows his weaknesses very well.
Junior Brother has said this, what else can he do?
If he cared about it, he would be a coward.
"of course not."
Long Qingquan said helplessly: "Go on."
"Well, where did I just say it? I was suddenly interrupted and I forgot a little bit."
Zhao Xun was really helpless.
"When it comes to summarizing objective phenomena"
"Yes! People on the continent of Ellen Lore have summarized many objective laws, but they gradually found that some things are difficult to summarize and explain using the existing laws. So they gave this part of the world a name
New name, that's magic."
Most of what Zhao Xun said to his third senior brother Long Qingquan was what he heard from the Elf King Odyssey. Coupled with some of his own understanding and explanation, he had a complete set of things.
Third senior brother Long Qingquan was fascinated by what he heard.
I have to say that junior brother Zhao Xun is very good at telling stories.
No matter who is listening to the little junior brother telling stories, they will be fascinated.
"Well, if that's the case, I understand, but why are human and elven magic separated?"
Third senior brother Long Qingquan mentioned a very critical issue.
This question is very acute, and it would be difficult for ordinary people to explain it clearly.
But who told him to ask Zhao Xun?
Zhao Xun smiled lightly and said: "Actually, the magic of the elves was stolen from the humans."
"Stealing an army? But these are two completely different tribes. How could they steal an army?"
"That's a long story."
Zhao Xun picked up a cup of milk tea that had just been made not long ago, took a sip to moisten his throat, and then said in a deep voice: "Let's put it this way, in the beginning, only the human race had magicians, and only magicians mastered magic. So those who master magic
They are a very small group of people in the human race. These people are basically nobles and live a life without worries about food and clothing. Because they have mastered privileges, they are qualified to learn magic. Of course, not all of them have become magic.
Only those with excellent qualifications and very hard work became magicians, that is, the first batch of magicians. Or we can call them the ancestors of magicians."
"The title of the ancestor of magicians is somewhat meaningful."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan clicked his tongue and said in wonder: "Okay, let's just call them the ancestors of magicians for now. What happened to the ancestors of magicians?"
"The ancestors of magicians were just some scattered nobles at first, but later they felt that this was not enough and had to set up an organization. This is the Magic Association."
"Does the Magic Society manage magicians?"
Third senior brother Long Qingquan's intuition is very sharp and he captured the key information in an instant.
"good."
Zhao Xun said seriously: "The Magic Association is used to manage magicians. Not only do newcomers have to go through a whole set of procedures to join the association, but if a magician does something extraordinary, the president of the Magic Association will also punish him. Yes.
It is said that the Magic Society is an extremely peculiar organization in the human kingdom. They are parallel to the human secular kingship, and are intertwined with the divine power."
Zhao Xun paused and took another sip of milk tea, enjoying it very much.
Good guy, the milk tea made by Zhao Xun is really delicious. He should apply for a patent in the future.
Seeing that the third senior brother Long Qingquan was listening attentively, Zhao Xun cleared his throat and said: "Later, the Magic Association will organize a selection of outstanding magicians every year. The selected magicians will be commended throughout the kingdom. The originally harmonious atmosphere has changed.
Time has become tense. Third Brother, think about it, those who can become magicians are basically the nobles of the kingdom, and there are very few commoners. These nobles attach great importance to honor, because there are quotas for outstanding magicians.
There are restrictions, so they have to go through fierce competition to defeat their competitors before they can get this honor. So, it is conceivable that the involution has begun.”
Zhao Xun talked for a long time, but his mouth felt dry.
Good guy, telling the history of humans and elves is really an extremely long process.
It is not an easy task to popularize these two long historical facts to the third senior brother Long Qingquan in a short period of time.
