hidden reason

Staring at Pete's eyes at close range, Andrew suddenly remembered the kind of eye magic (eye of heart fire) that Hobart and Barbara had used on him. I don't know if there is magic that can see through the heart of the other party and ask the secret directly in the water magic of my own in the future?

It can be heard that the riots in the town are approaching this side. Soon there will probably be other magic apprentices searching for this bring.

Andrew was calm, not in a hurry.

Because some things have to be figured out!

The grading standards of magic apprentices in this world flashed in my mind——

Junior magic apprentices have no magic power and no magic, but have some magical knowledge that ordinary people don't know.

Intermediate magic apprentice, with magic power, but there is no complete magic for the time being. Andrew himself is now at this level. Strictly speaking, Water Spirit Art, Water Spirit Seed, and Water Spirit Sensing are not really water magic, but can only be said to be the derivative skills of the two basic abilities of "Water Spirit Art" and "Water Spirit Physique". .

Advanced magic apprentices are characters with at least one standard magic skill. Going a step further, mastering at least three magics and passing the assessment of the magic union will be able to break away from the status of "apprentice" and become a full-fledged magician. And only after becoming a magician can you have your own laboratory, draw energy from the "earth fire", and make your cultivation progress by leaps and bounds.

"—In short, according to this set of standards, Pete has undoubtedly stood before the threshold of a full-fledged magician!"

Andrew is very sure, "In terms of overall offensive and defensive strength, he should be stronger than Raymond! Of course, the premise is to maintain the best casting distance of ten meters - that is, on the basis of ensuring a safe distance, and ensuring sufficient skill accuracy. And magic power, not too close, not too far."

So it's really incomprehensible: why do you have to hide your strength even at the expense of your speed of practice? This is totally useless!

"Can you change your life?" Pete asked in a low voice. What I actually thought in my heart was: Can we delay for a while and wait for reinforcements?

Andrew nodded and said, "Yes."

At the same time, he gave full play to the advantages of his physique and made false promises with his acting skills at the peak of the top actor level.

While starting to tighten the palm of the other's neck. After all, I don't have time to procrastinate here!

Fear and anger flashed in Pete's eyes, but he had to say, "Don't, don't kill me! I said, I said!"

In his sense, Andrew's strength was like a big python. I didn't feel anything at first, but as the power tightened, how could Pete dare to think of "deliberately delaying a little more time"?

He said in a hoarse voice: "It is rumored... that the owner of the eight strange fires will not end well! Or die tragically, or disappear mysteriously. I... I really want to become stronger, but at the same time I am afraid. That's why I deliberately hide my strength. , I want to be as low-key as possible while practicing..."

Andrew couldn't help frowning. The owner of the eight strange fires still has this attribute of calamity?

I don't know if it's true or not for a while, so I silently write this down first.

Andrew is still very concerned about things related to Baqihuo.

Although the opponent's fireball technique was crushed by himself, to a large extent, it was because the magic of "fireball technique" did not quite match the characteristics of "shadow eclipse fire".

Pete's Strange Fire is more suitable for stealth assassination magic.

Andrew didn't forget: his own "water telepathy", but at the very beginning he missed the presence of the other party!

Then asked: "Then you said earlier: Even if Hobart can save me, he won't waste time saving me because he's 'overwhelmed'. What does that mean?"

Andrew did not forget this sentence.

Compared to "Why Pete hides his strength", this is what Andrew is really concerned about now.

"Can change a life-"

"Say!"

"..."

Pete gritted his teeth, took a hard breath under Andrew's palm, and said, "Teacher, he's actually... old and dying! He was originally strong and had a place in the 'Scholar's Fortress'. If not, I would How could he worship at his door back then?

But later, teacher, he had a problem while practicing!

He originally wanted to incorporate the 'Earth Fire' attribute into his own magical flame, breaking through to a higher realm in one fell swoop. There was a problem when breaking through, and was severely 'ground fire backlash'. This is why I came to this Wildfire Town to study the method of healing and prolonging life! "

Speaking of this, Pitt paused and whispered: "Teacher, he... is still very strong, but he is no longer at the level of a 'great magician'."

Hearing this, Andrew couldn't bear it any longer, clenched his fists, and shouted ok in his heart!

This is the information I need most right now!

The commotion got closer. The water spirit has even noticed that the magic apprentice closest to here has reached a range of 100 meters and is breaking into a house!

Andrew remained calm, and asked in a deep voice, "What is the level of the so-called 'great magician'—?"

In fact, I should have known this kind of knowledge, but who made the memory left by the original owner of this body to be incomplete? There are many things that you need to know for yourself.

Pete is a little strange in his heart. He said that you are too embarrassed to ask such basic questions? But he was being strangled by Andrew's instinctively aggravated palms under the excitement of Andrew's heart, how could he care so much!

"You...you take it easy! I can't breathe! Cough, cough, cough!"

It was hard to breathe again, and Pete really felt that it would be better to die than to suffer from this.

But his will to survive is also strong, mainly because he also heard the riots from the town, getting closer and closer!

So I gave Andrew a more detailed answer:

"After passing the assessment, magic apprentices become official magicians. Magicians are also divided into three, six, and nine grades.

The so-called 'great magician' is the existence of standing at the upper level of the magician group, having its own independent laboratory and being able to recruit its own magic apprentices. Ordinary magicians do not have laboratories and are not qualified to recruit apprentices. This is the biggest difference between the two.

The great magician, going one step further, integrates the 'earth fire' attribute into his own magical flame, and is expected to become a 'magician' level existence. If he can really become a magician, that is the level of the elders of the magic union, which can be ranked in the entire history of the union. "

Andrew listened carefully, thought for a moment, and then asked, "What is the property of earth fire? Does it have anything to do with the 'lava earth fire' in the Baqi fire?"

Even in desperation, Pete couldn't help but be speechless: You don't know what the "earth fire attribute" is, but you know the "eight strange fires"? Do you know "Lava Fire"?

Of course, he didn't show any signs on the surface, and answered honestly: "The great magician, integrating the earth fire attribute into his own magical flame, is the 'lava earth fire'! The lava earth fire is the first and only one of the eight strange fires. A magical flame that can be acquired through cultivation!"

Andrew was taken aback and asked sternly: "So all those who have successfully broken through from the 'Great Mage' to become the 'Magician', that is, the members of the elders of the Magic Union, are—"

"Yes." Pete's voice couldn't help showing a hint of yearning and admiration, "They are all... the owners of one of the eight strange fires, the Lava Earth Fire!"
