The sun shines on the white marble floor. The severe cold of winter has receded, and the Royal City of Kalia has become more vibrant. In the square in front of the Arcane Academy, a large number of Kalia's people gathered around. Some looked at the towering statue of the Arcane Goddess in the square and prayed silently, while others held cameras to record the major events that were about to happen today. A sixth member of Parliament will be knighted today. It has been five years since the last time Mea became a senator. At that time, Mea had just been promoted to a high-level rank and created an arcane shock of no grade that was recognized by more than 70% of the mages in the parliament. Each new member of parliament represents a supreme power for the parliament, and will receive half of the tax revenue of a designated city and the title of marquis of the kingdom. The parliament will also help build a wizard tower in the royal city. There are now six wizard towers in the royal city. In addition to the royal wizard tower in the center, there are five wizard towers in the other five directions. "I heard that this new councillor is from the Church of War?" "It seems he is also an extraordinary war knight. This councillor has been favored by two goddesses and can use the power of arcane and war at the same time!" There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, and Yaomei and others who were also in the crowd showed strange expressions when they heard this. "Miss, why does the person they are talking about sound so familiar?" the follower whispered.
Yaomei didn't reply and continued listening. “I also heard that this congressman even had a fight with Congressman Joseph when he first came to Parliament, and cut off one of Congressman Joseph’s arms on the spot!” "Is this true? Councillor Joseph is an extraordinary fire mage!" "My relatives in the Arcane Legion told me this! The new senator used a rapier!" the man answered confidently. These words also reached the ears of Yaomei and others. They were students of the academy and they had indeed heard that Congressman Joseph had a fight with the new congressman, but they did not know the specific circumstances. These days they have been investigating the Flame Legion and preparing to infiltrate the Flame Legion. They had just sneaked in yesterday and had intended to find Helen to report, but due to the ceremony for the new congressman, they did not see Helen. "Miss, the new congressman they are talking about could not be the special executive of the Church of War?" the enchanting follower spoke again. Yaomei blinked her eyes. She hadn't seen any news about the NPC Li'er Stuart on the forum for a while. Many players were even offering a reward for Li'er's location. "Let's wait and see. If it really is Lear, then maybe we can try to get closer to him!" Yaomei said after thinking for a while. She had watched the beta test video and knew everything about Li Er, especially his shop, which contained many spells. She suddenly thought of a spell in Lear's shop, the fire-extinguishing spell! The spell that affected the wind direction of the entire academy not long ago seemed to be called the Fire Extinguishing Spell? While Yaomei was thinking, the gate of the Arcane Academy was slowly opened, and the Ebony Legion led by Russell spread out from both sides, lined up in two rows and knelt on one knee. In the back, Larena came out with members of the parliament and a group of high-level wizards. Lear and Milia stood behind Lareina, immediately attracting the attention of everyone present. Except for Lear and the other two, almost all the other councilors and high-level wizards present were familiar to the audience. "Who are these two gentlemen?" a native of the Royal City of Kalia asked. "Oh my god, it's Lear?" Some players also exclaimed. Yaomei and others stood in the crowd, their eyes somewhat excited. Li Er is undoubtedly the highest-level NPC they can come into contact with. Not only that, there are many good things in Li Er's shop! Amid cheers, Lareina brought Lir and others to the platform in front of the square, with the statue of the goddess of arcane behind them.
After a brief cheer, Lareina waved her hand, signaling for silence. "Today is an important day..." She stood on the podium and said softly, "An outstanding person in the arcane field has come here and will soon become a member of the parliament." Lareina made way and let Lear stand in the center. "He is Lear Stuart." "He created extremely excellent spells. Two of his spells have been included in the Council and the Academy. I believe that many wizards have already learned them." "Arcane Cannon and Flame Extinguishing!" Lareina continued, "I don't need to say much about the excellence of these two spells, but I know that many people think that these two spells alone are not enough to gain the honor of being a councillor..." There was complete silence in the audience as everyone listened quietly to Lareina's narration. The information about the arcane cannon and the flame extinguishing spell had already been known to many mid-level and high-level spell casters. These two spells are indeed excellent, but they are not enough. When Lareina first announced that Lear would become a member of parliament, they also used this reason to oppose it, but now it seems that there is more to it than just that? Joseph, Ian and Bridget on the side also showed puzzled looks. They looked at Lear as if they wanted to see something. Lear just stood there quietly, without moving. Everyone looked at Lareina, waiting for her next speech, but Lareina smiled and said, "These are indeed not enough to gain the honor of being a councillor, but I will still give him the honor of being a councillor." "Please forgive me for not being able to tell you the secret yet, but one day in the future you will know that the honor that Senator Lear received today is definitely well-deserved!" As Lareina finished her words, the place fell into complete silence. It was as if she had said nothing at all. Li'er looked at Lareina. He thought Lareina was going to tell him the secret of arcane counter, but he didn't expect her to just brush it off like that. To those who are not in the know, doesn't it mean that I have high hopes for him, so I gave him the honor of being a member of parliament, and even suspected that Lear was a gigolo? Lareina also used the word "secret", which made people more imaginative. In an instant, Lear felt all kinds of strange gazes directed at him. "By the way, Senator Lear is also the special executive of the Church of War, a strong and outstanding extraordinary war knight. I believe that Senator Lear's arrival will definitely make the parliament's battle mage school even more powerful!" Lareina added, glancing at Lear while speaking, with an ambiguous tone. After hearing this, Lear regretted coming to Kalia to accept such a parliamentary title. After Lareina finished her last words, more glances came from the square, most of which came from male mages, and their eyes were full of hostility. It can be seen that Lalena has a great influence in Kalia. She is a widowed woman with two daughters, she is so beautiful, and she is also a queen. How could those old men who have been studying magic not be moved by such a person? "Senator Lear, do you have anything to say?" Lareina looked at Lear with a smile. Li Er sighed helplessly, "Mr. Speaker, your behavior will make people hate you." "Is that so?" Lareina replied in a puzzled tone. Li Er shook his head. He always felt that the Speaker of the Arcane Parliament in front of him had a strange attitude towards him from the very beginning. "I have nothing to say. If it's all right, let's just end it like this." Lear declined the invitation to speak. It would be futile to say anything when he could not prove that he deserved his status as a member of parliament. Just like Lalena said, one day in the future, when Arcane Counterattack officially takes the stage, he will be able to gain prestige in the parliament. And Lear feels that this day is not too far away.
He glanced at Joseph standing aside. Lear didn't want to speak, and Lareina couldn't force Lear to speak. After saying a few simple words, Lareina looked at the statue of the goddess of arcane in front of her. "Senator Li'er, I will pray to the Goddess for you." Lalena said seriously. The other councillors standing behind her were also staring at the statue closely. The status of a member of parliament is not something that can be obtained simply by getting the approval of Lareina or other members of parliament. It is only the most basic qualification. True members of the parliament also need to be recognized by the goddess of arcane. That's why Lareina jokingly said that it was because of a backdoor that Lear became a member of parliament. In fact, whether or not she can become a member of the parliament does not depend on her will. Lear also looked at the tall statue. He knew nothing about the affairs of the parliament members. As Lareina prayed, the statue began to shine, and a lavender light fell on Lear. The next second, Lear felt the scene in front of him change. "Are you the mortal chosen by Kroto?" A curious voice sounded in Lear's ears. Lear was stunned, and then he saw the scene in front of him. There were scattered books all around. The scene in front of him looked like a library, with spiral bookshelves that stretched as far as the eye could see, and a large number of books scattered on the ground. On a table not far away, a petite figure was looking at Lear curiously. This is a girl who is only about meters tall. She wears round-frame glasses and a loose robe. Her white calves are exposed from the robe, giving her a petite lolita feel. "Are you the goddess of arcane?" Lear reacted and walked forward. "It's me." The little girl nodded. She found a lot of books from the towering bookshelves around her. "You have a lot of legal aura about you. This is very strange." "Blood, that seems to be a very ancient law. I have only seen it in those remaining ancient books." "Chen Xing is the strongest person in the previous era." "Corrupt, dead gods." "Blasphemy too, you killed them all." "You accepted their power and didn't feel any rejection." The little girl kept talking while flipping through the books in the air. Li Er looked at this scene, not knowing what the other party wanted to do, "Arcane Goddess, you..." "My name is Mithra." The little girl interrupted Lear and floated in front of Lear without saying anything. "You also have my arcane law in you." "This shouldn't have happened. Different laws and powers cannot coexist, but you broke such a rule." The little girl reached out and touched Lear, and Lear wanted to dodge reflexively, but in an instant he found that he could not move his body. The arcane light roamed over his body, as if searching for something. After about ten seconds, the little Loli frowned. "How strange." The little girl floated away from Li Er. "There is nothing abnormal about you, but why can you accommodate other laws of power?"
"And your affinity with the arcane law has been raised to the intermediate level, but I didn't even sense when it was raised." Mithra continued. Li Er found that his body was able to move at this time, and he looked at the little Loli in front of him vigilantly. The other party was a god. Although he didn't seem to be hostile, Lear was indeed a little angry when he came up and searched his body without any explanation. "Are you angry?" Mithra glanced at Lear, then said unhappily, "I should be angry. You stole my power, but I knew nothing about it!" Like a bullied little girl, Mithra sat directly on the table nearby. Lear said nothing, for he had almost guessed what Mithra was saying. He can obtain law affinity from the carrier of law source, which seems to not require the help of law spirit. In the game cognition of "Law", affinity for law is granted by gods, as is completing tasks. Although gods may have just arbitrarily set tasks and rules for obtaining affinity for law, it obviously does not include Lear's way. It is not right to let the carrier of the source of law produce negative emotions. "It seems that you are not going to tell me the reason." Mithra looked at Lear and curled his lips, a little unhappy, but not angry. "Hmph, it's fine if you don't want to tell me, but I won't let you go easily!" Mithra snorted lightly, and then a dazzling stream of light sank into Lear's body. "Since you are the one that Kroto has chosen, you must be special. That guy Zhan has left traces on you, so of course I won't miss you!" [You have received the gift of the Arcane Goddess, and you have obtained 1% of the Arcane Law Essence] [You have obtained occupation information: Mage, you can awaken the Arcane Law affinity for others and switch to the Arcane Law occupation] [Your affinity for the arcane law has reached 90%, you gain intelligence +49, mysticism +21] [Since you have not completed the attribute limit breaking task, the mystery and intelligence attributes are limited to 99] [You have triggered the extraordinary mage professional advancement task] [Mission: Extraordinary Mage's Professional Trial] [Mission objective: Create any high-level spell] [Quest Reward: Mage professional rank upgrade, qualification to learn extraordinary spells] [The spell "Arcane Counter" is detected, and the mission has been completed] [You have completed the extraordinary magician's professional trial, the magician's professional level has been upgraded, and you have obtained the qualification to learn extraordinary spells] A series of system prompts popped up in front of Lear. Looking at the information in front of him, Lear's eyes widened. This was the second or third gift he had received. The Goddess of War had given him source material before, and so had Milia. As a result, his affinity with the Law of Morning Star had reached 90%, and now the Goddess of Arcane had also given him source material. Doesn't this Law Essence cost money? (End of this chapter)
