Extraordinary pedigree

The next day, the time of light/8:00.

The Naga Ring ushered in a new day, and the light of [Hundred-layer World Sun·Sartos] was like a golden curtain, pouring down on the city of Arcadian.

The whole city was shrouded in the warm morning light, and the moist air was filled with a faint smell of poisonous fog.

The sun shone through the diffuse mist and reflected on the ancient buildings. The stone walls were coiled with snake-shaped carvings, as if these snake spirits were slowly waking up.

Snake Bone Avenue is the main road of the city. The buildings on both sides of the street are of different styles. The wizards walking on the street are wearing various magic robes and whispering about magic research and various gossips.

Most people looked a little sad, and their eyes were cast in a certain direction from time to time. The topic mostly revolved around magic research and the recent commotion in the city.

The alarms that sounded in the Snake Spirit Crystal Wall Council and the major observation towers yesterday still make many people uneasy.

Everyone knows that this kind of magic abnormality alarm means that some kind of danger is approaching.

At this moment, an extremely eye-catching team was slowly moving along the Snake Bone Avenue.

This team was undoubtedly the most eye-catching presence on the street - the combination of six people, a frog and a ghost attracted the attention of passers-by on the road.

Several outsiders walked in front, looking out of place with the surroundings, especially the wizard robes on them that were not from the Hundred Layers World, which could be identified as foreign wizards at a glance.

At this moment, the city of Arcadia was in a period of high alert, and the sudden appearance of outsiders naturally attracted the attention of many people.

The leader of this team was naturally Camille Sifani, the third-year dean of the Deer Academy, a girl with a single ponytail, a pretty face and intelligence. She looked around everything behind her intellectual glasses, as if recording every detail.

Ushas, ​​who was beside her, was carrying a huge axe on her back, and she looked around curiously at the people who were looking at her strangely; the frog Muji stood leisurely on Ushas's shoulder, making some insignificant comments from time to time, and her relaxed tone formed a sharp contrast with the tension around her.

The leader of the Emerald Guardians, Eldris Verorion, who was the only one in the team wearing a robe-colored wizard uniform, was whispering a few words with Jason Hendrix, a professor of Wilson's Wildlife Response Team, who looked like a social animal.

Following them was a floating ghost, Lifener, whose figure that appeared and disappeared at that time made passers-by look sideways, with surprise and vigilance written on their faces.

However, what really attracted everyone's attention was the red-robed woman walking in the middle of the team.

She wore a red robe of the Giant Snake Sect, with a heavy spell cloak hanging on her shoulders and a venomous snake-shaped magic wand on her waist.

Her wavy curly hair swayed gently in the wind, and her cold eyes swept across the street, revealing a hint of arrogance.

The woman had a faint smile on her face, but her whole body was full of arrogance that could not be concealed.

As an important figure in the Kaylasel family, Saphira Kaylasel was not only the mentor of the Fang Sect, but also one of the core members of the family, responsible for handling various dangerous tasks.

She was particularly good at using poison and curse to disintegrate the enemy's resistance.

"What a rare opportunity." The female Auror said casually, with a condescending tone in her tone.

Her eyes fell lightly on Camille and other students from the Deer Academy, with a hint of arrogance that was difficult to conceal at the corners of her mouth.

"Let me lead you... well, according to Terra, you are exchange students; I have to take you to familiarize yourself with the environment of Arcadian City, and you have to accept the family's "guidance."

She deliberately emphasized the word "guidance", revealing an unquestionable majesty.

"However, the magical atmosphere of Snake Bone Avenue is quite good. Although it is not as good as the main territory of my Kailasel family and Serpentis College, it has some advantages."

Although the female Auror's voice was soft, every word was full of pride and harshness.

Camille and his companions listened silently without interrupting, obviously unwilling to easily offend this member of the Auror family who seemed very difficult to get along with.

Sapphira's words continued. She seemed to enjoy this opportunity to educate others. She looked at these foreign wizards in the team, as if she wanted to read something from their faces.

"You should have felt that the time operation of the Naga Ring is different from that of Terra."

She said lightly, her voice was steady, and her tone still carried a sense of superiority that could not be ignored.

"The sunrise and sunset here are based on the 'Sun of the Hundred Worlds, Saltos'."

"The rising and setting cycle of Saltos is about 28 hours, so a day in the Naga Ring is slightly longer than your time in the mortal world - 'Light Time' and 'Shadow Time' each take 14 hours."

She glanced at Camille, obviously not expecting any reaction from them. She continued:

"Our moon system here is composed of three different moons, which govern our moon cycle.

A complete moon cycle is 36 days.

Wizards use these moon phases to perform various magical rituals, and you will have the opportunity to witness the power of these three moons here."

Camille nodded slightly, his eyes moving, obviously absorbing every word the Auror said.

In contrast, the other Deer Academy students in the team, although they all pretended to listen carefully, were obviously not as attentive as Camille.

However, Ushas did not hide her tiredness. She yawned and looked at the surrounding buildings casually, looking out of place with her surroundings.

Female Auror Saphira noticed Ursas' rude behavior and glanced at her coldly, with a trace of dissatisfaction and contempt in her eyes.

This emotion was not too obvious on her face, but the contempt inside her rose mercilessly.

"As expected, they are a heretic species from the barbarian land of Terra. Even if they are capable of magic, they are no different from Mudbloods and no better than Muggles."

She despised Ushas in her heart, but continued to explain without changing the expression on her face:

“The monthly cycle is divided into three phases, each moon dominates for 12 days, and wizards divide periods of different magical activity based on the dominance of the moon during this period.

The phase of Asil is the peak period of snake magic and poison magic. In the first 12 days, the power of snakes will reach its peak.

Next comes the Phase of Zelka, a 12-day period focused on prophecy and time magic. During this period, prophecy magic is especially active.

Finally, the aspect of Nartus, specializes in transfiguration and curse magic. "

Saphira paused for a moment, her eyes showing pride.

"Do you Terra have these things?"

He asked with obvious sarcasm, the expression on his face seemed to imply: Do you outsiders really understand the profoundness of the Naga Ring?

Ushas didn't seem to realize the core meaning of his words, and asked directly without hesitation:

"Aren't you from Terra?"

Her direct and simple question made Saphira's face freeze for a moment, obviously interrupted by this sudden question.

A short silence spread in the team. Camille quickly pushed Ushas with her elbow and signaled her with a sneer to stop talking nonsense. Then she forced a smile and said to Saphira:

"Uh...please continue."

The female Auror's eyes returned to coldness. There was no smile on her face. She sneered and continued her unfinished explanation:

"You must remember that the magical power of the Naga Ring is not static."

She accentuated her tone, as if to emphasize some kind of warning.

“The year here is divided into five seasons, and each season controls a different magical power.

The poisonous season symbolizes poison and growth, and snake magic reaches its peak.

Next is the Flaming Season, the active period of fire elements and power magic.

Then comes the Season of Precognition, the pinnacle of prophecy and summoning.

The Hidden Ice Season symbolizes darkness and cold, and defensive magic and dark spells are particularly powerful during this period.

Finally, there is the season of looping, when the forces of magic and nature gradually return to balance. "

Her voice was cold and steady, with a clear sense of oppression in every word, as if she was instilling the rules of the Naga Ring and the absolute authority of her Kailasel family into these students of Terra.

"The Ring of Naga has its own rules, and this is not Terra."

She looked coldly at Camille and her companions, suggesting that they would do well to take these words to heart.

"You'd better be familiar with the rules, otherwise 'ignorance' is no excuse here."

On the other side, Ursas, who was warned by Camille with her elbow, did not show much awe after listening to these fancy seasonal and climate-related knowledge. She just secretly muttered the question just now:

"Are you from Terra?"

Could it be that the son can deny his father just because he is separated by an artificial crystal wall system similar to a strait?

While thinking about this problem, Ushas couldn't help but pinch Muji on his shoulder.

"Guagua~ What are you doing?" Muji glanced at Ushas dissatisfied.

"It's nothing, I just want to pinch you suddenly."

Ushas blinked his third eye and said innocently.

Frog glanced at Ushas speechlessly, but when he saw the other person's thick hands and weighed his strength, he chose to croak a few times to express his dissatisfaction, so he didn't say much.

While one person and one frog were interacting, the female Auror had already brought her to one of the "study tour goals" she had arranged for this trip.

Everyone involuntarily looked up at a shop in front of them, which said "Elosak Cane Shop". Outside the shop was a house number with a motto carved on it:

"The wizard guides power, but the wand chooses fate; only when the souls are in harmony, can the wand ignite real magic——"

*

*

*

Inside the staff shop, the air was filled with the faint scent of wood and magic materials.

The hands of the old craftsman Satis Elosak were gently wiping a fifteen-inch silver wand. The movements in his hands were cautious, as if he was afraid of disturbing this mysterious creation.

Since getting the Deathly Hallows last night, Satis has not slept a wink and has been immersed in the study of this great creation all night long.

His eyes were full of deep obsession, but also mixed with unconcealable awe and fear.

At this moment, Satis was wearing a snakeskin glove on his right hand, which was to cover up the [∞] mark left by the Dark Lord on the back of his hand.

This mark is like an invisible lock, always reminding him of the contract between him and that dangerous existence.

He had repeatedly weighed in his mind countless times whether to reveal this matter to the rulers of the Naga Ring, the Kailasel family.

But whenever he recalled his contact with the Dark Lord last night, the devil-like temptation and irresistible power, the fear in his heart overwhelmed him like a tide.

He knew that he had embarked on a road of no return, a road of adultery.

And the scary thing is - this path was his own choice.

The Dark Lord didn't "force him".

"Everything you ask for will be done for, everything you gain will be lost, and everything you pay will be repaid..."

The Dark Lord's whispers were still echoing in his ears, and Satis clenched the silver wand in his hand.

Although he was struggling in his heart, he could not ignore the huge temptation contained in this wand. The power of the Deathly Hallows fascinated him, and the subtle contract also pushed him to continue on this path.

Ding bell~~~

Just as Satis was deep in thought, the bell at the door suddenly rang, bringing him back to reality from his thoughts.

He looked up slightly in surprise, with a hint of alertness in his eyes. The door was pushed open and he saw a group of unexpected customers entering the store.

The first thing that caught his eye was a familiar figure wearing a red robe—Saphira Kellasel, the female Auror of the Serpent Faction and a core member of the Kellasel family.

"This is Satis Elosak, the best staff maker in the entire city of Arcadien - not one of them."

The female Auror introduced Satis to her entourage with a hint of pride.

Hearing this, Satis felt a complex emotion in his heart.

There was a huge wave in his heart at this moment.

What a coincidence!

He was thinking about entering Serpentis College last night, and one way he thought about was to enter through an Auror family member he knew. But before he could take any specific action, the other party took the initiative to find him.

Everything was so coincidental, as if something was silently pushing it.

The old craftsman silently put away the Deathly Hallows and looked at the young people behind Saphira, the female Auror, who were obviously incompatible with the Ring of Nagas. He immediately realized that these people were not from the Hundred Layer World, but from Terra. guest.

This reminded him of the plan given to him by the Dark Lord last night - to infiltrate himself within the Kelasel family and serve his larger plan.

The scene in front of me is the beginning of the plan.

And now, the group of people in front of him walked into his staff shop by coincidence.

Destiny is advancing the Dark Lord's chess game step by step.

"Welcome to Elosak's Staff Shop."

Satis tried his best to keep his tone calm and calm, and nodded slightly to express his welcome to these guests.

However, when these words came out, his smile stiffened unconsciously for a moment - in the lining of his chest, the mirror left to him by the Dark Lord was emitting a burst of heat, as if it was about to leave a mark on his skin. .

Once the mirror begins to heat up, it means that the Dark Lord's will is interfering with his environment in some way.

At the same time, it also represents the appearance of the Dark Lord's prey.

He felt a sense of oppression, and sweat slid down his forehead. However, he could only try his best to remain calm and pretend that everything was normal.

His hand subconsciously touched the mirror, but the heat of the mirror startled him and he did not dare to act rashly.

Following that uneasy feeling, Satis' eyes began to quietly wander around the store, looking for possible abnormalities.

His eyes passed over the students of Luyuan one by one.

First, there was Camille standing in front, with a hint of prudence on her intellectual face, and her eyes looking at every corner of the store; then there was Ushas, ​​who was carrying a giant ax and full of power, and the sword on her shoulders. Frog Muji, Muji is looking around with a relaxed expression.

However, as the burning sensation emanating from the mirror became stronger and stronger, Satis' eyes gradually focused on one spot.

His eyes crossed Camille, past Ushas and Muji, and finally settled on the ghost floating in mid-air - Lifenr.

The ghostly figure appears and disappears like smoke, and may be blown away by the wind at any time.

Lifenr's timid expression and the translucent state of his body made him look even weaker.

However, the uneasiness in Satis's heart reached its peak at this moment.

He could feel that the Dark Lord's mirror seemed to be reacting to the ghost in some way.

Is this ghost one of the Dark Lord's targets?

The atmosphere in the store was slightly stagnant, Satis stood behind the counter, trying his best to hide the turmoil in his heart.

The female Auror Saphira Kellasel walked towards him calmly, nodded slightly and exchanged a few words, her attitude was unexpectedly calm.

"Master Satis," Saphira chuckled, waving casually to signal the following Deer Academy students to stand aside, "These are exchange students from Terra, outstanding students from Deer Academy."

When she spoke, her eyes glanced lightly at Camille and her companions. Although there was no direct contempt in her tone, there was a strong sense of arrogance in her words.

"It is a rare opportunity for them to see with their own eyes the true staff-making skills of our Naga Ring, especially the work of your Master Satis."

Saphira raised her head slightly and looked at Satis with a smile, but there was a hint of condescension in her tone.

"I think opening the eyes of these foreigners can be regarded as your kindness to them, right?"

Satis sighed inwardly, but still maintained the composure on his face.

He knew what the female Auror meant, and he also knew that she had never really taken these wizards from Terra seriously.

Although she didn't say it explicitly, every word she said was provocative.

"Of course, I would be happy to let these young students see the exquisite craftsmanship of our Naga Ring."
