Vincent kneaded the lump on his head that was still swollen. He sat quietly on the deck chair


    in front of Charlotte''s house and looked at his new left arm. It was the most exquisitely crafted


    magical object Vincent had ever seen. The arm was now perfectly attached to his shoulder,


    and every joint could move according to the Master''s wishes, although there was still a


    significant delay between the command given by his mind and the response of his arm. But


    as Vincent became more and more familiar with the properties of the arm, this delay was


    becoming less and less noticeable.


    It is indeed an almost perfect creation, and if you look across the continent, you will probably


    not find another object of this quality. This, of course, excludes all kinds of artifacts, which are


    already the creations of the gods and have reached a height beyond the reach of human


    beings. But this arm should not have been an artifact. More than 200 years ago, a former


    archmage of the Mage Society used an extremely powerful object locating spell to collect 36


    advanced artifacts from across the continent. These artifacts were documented and scattered


    in the secret towers of the Guild; And the lower-level artifacts were collected together, so it


    is safe to say that there should be no artifact in the world that the Mage Society has not seen,


    especially in such a place that is not protected from magic detection, it is impossible to hide


    higher-level magical objects of the artefact level.


    So who made this arm, and to whom was it given? Vincent struggled to think of an answer.


    This arm was obviously made for a humanoid who had lost his left hand, but no other famous


    person in history had ever had such an arm.


    "Whatever, it works," he said. Vincent tried to move his joints again. The only disadvantage of


    this arm is its terrible weight. Pure gold is extremely hard, and its density is higher than that


    of ordinary metal. An iron arm of that size would have made one feel extremely heavy, let


    alone pure gold, which is many times as heavy as iron.


    Vincent can only use the armrest of his chair to support this arm. He is not strong enough to


    bear such a heavy weight hanging from one side of his body all day.


    The sorcerer spread the SLATE flat on his lap and began to study the writing on it again. In


    the days after the arm was installed, Vincent devoted all his time to studying the tablet, except


    for the first few days when the pain was so intense that he could not concentrate. He used


    every way he knew how to interpret the text, trying to find patterns in the jumble of characters.


    He believed that by discovering the specific order in which the letters were arranged, he could


    unlock the secrets of the tablets. But over the course of several days, he tried hundreds of


    ideas, but he could not find a single clue.


    The left arm of the chair creaked and cracked. Vincent quickly lifted his hand and put it back


    on his knee, but he was too late. Under the weight of the prosthetic arm, the wooden armrest


    is completely broken -- this is the 16th chair that has been crushed.


    Charlotte''s level of magic had improved dramatically in recent days, as she continued to repair


    the broken pieces with spells every day.


    Vincent looked at his left arm and reminded himself that even if he could use it skillfully and


    flexibly, he would have to keep its weight in mind. Do not forget its hardness and weight --


    this arm, in a sense, is not much different from the ram used to attack the city gate.


    The left arm rests quietly on Vincent''s left leg, and the right half is pressed against a SLATE


    full of characters. Vincent looked down, but his mouth fell open in surprise. The red pattern


    carved on his arm is exactly the same spacing as the characters on the SLATE. If you move


    them a little to align them, you can see that the markings on the arms indicate and mark


    several letters on the SLATE.


    This discovery made Vincent very excited. He put his left hand on the left side of the SLATE


    and moved his arm around. Finally, he found that when his palm was up, the pattern on his


    arm corresponded to a meaningful word on the SLATE. He rolled his arm to the right side of


    the SLATE, and the patterns rotated accordingly, marking meaningful words one by one in


    different order. The words were linked together to mean "under the full moon''s light, break


    the stone with an acorn and get an O." Vincent turns the SLATE clockwise, starting from the


    other side, and uses the same method to get another sentence. Finally, these four sentences


    are connected, which is "under the full moon, break the SLATE with an acorn, and get the true


    meaning of the magic: Arcane principles, magical creation, higher creation, boundary


    mechanism and esoteric magic. This is the original origin, but also the final annihilation."


    So this is the secret of the SLATE? Vincent is about to jump with excitement. As the simulation


    said, this SLATE really hides the secret of magic! And it might even be ancient magic from a


    long time ago -- information about that kind of magic called primordial magic. This is a major


    discovery for the entire mage world.


    Only by finding this arm can we finally solve the mystery of the characters on the SLATE. What


    Vincent does not know is that the previous owner of this stone, the dwarf Great Arcane, did


    not understand the stone in his life, and died of sadness, and chose this stone as his


    tombstone when he died. The fine gold left limb, which is the size of a human arm, would not


    This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.be of much interest to any dwarf and would soon disappear into the ocean of history. But for


    nearly a thousand years it had lain quietly within half a mile of the Great Arcane.


    Vincent calculated that today is a full moon night, and it is also the day of the year when the


    moon is the fullest. Vincent found Charlotte and Mark and asked them for some oak-tree


    fruit. Then he hurried to the spider''s Cave, which the dwarfs called the Golden Hall. There


    were no layers of rock above their heads, but if they looked up, they could see a small piece


    of blue sky.


    Vincent found a corner and silently waited for the night to come.


    There were fewer and fewer people in the Golden Hall. When the moonlight dyed the whole


    hall a piece of silver, Vincent put the SLATE on the ground and let it lie quietly, bathed in the


    bright moonlight, while he took the oak fruit in his left hand and hit the SLATE.


    "Crack", with a sharp sound, the SLATE split open. The scale of the crack grew larger and


    larger, and the crack quickly covered the surface of the SLATE. The carved characters were


    broken one by one, and the broken characters slowly melted into the moonlight and


    disappeared into the air. When the last character on the SLATE disappeared, two metal scrolls


    appeared in front of Vincent.


    "Ofa''s Secret Scroll" "The Law of Creation"


    Vincent picked up the two pieces of gold leaf and first looked at the Ofa secret scroll. Only


    the basic letters were listed on the scroll, but when Vincent began to look at them, the letters


    began to swim across the foil, changing positions and leaving their shadows in certain places.


    When all the letters had stopped moving, a document appeared before the master.


    "The Enigma of Ofa, an explanation of the origin of magical power in the Universe. When the


    world was conceived, it had three elements: time, space and magic. This volume spells out in


    detail the laws of primordial magical energy. It is a technique and ability that has been kept


    secret by magical gods in the past, and it is a direct link to the source of magic. The gods of


    Magic use this method to limit the scope of mortal knowledge of magic, and use spells to


    immobilize the magic abilities of mortal spellcasters. The Enigma Books are designed to take


    you directly to the source of magic..."


    This brings us to the end of the page. But the letters on the gold leaf began to move


    automatically, and after a while a new page appeared before Vincent...


    Completely absorbed in the pleasure of reading, Vincent continued to read page after page,


    even in his sleep, using the special skills he had learned. His brain, unlike his body, does not


    have moments of rest, but is constantly at work. Vincent is like a sponge, quickly absorbing


    the mysteries of ancient magic.


    When Charlotte first learned this, she did not react for a moment. Unexpectedly, she made


    up a story to comfort Vincent, and it turned out to be a real event. The stone slab really holds


    the secret of magic. But Charlotte''s heart was filled with joy, too, watching Vincent study


    magic without eating or sleeping.


    Two months passed, and Vincent was delighted to discover a new magical system. The scroll


    was truly profound. In the beginning, it only explains the effects and origins of some magic,


    and in a half-speculative, half-recorded way, it describes in general the origin of magic that


    the magic gods have transformed into an eight-faction magic system that can be mastered


    by ordinary mortal mages, and is still the standard for mages to learn. However, in the later


    part, the author began to tell the real source power of magic. But for Vincent''s experience


    with higher-order magic, its principles would have been impossible for him to understand.


    It took Vincent two months to understand the true meaning of this scroll: he could have a


    mage use magic directly from the source, bypassing the control of the magic gods.


    Although the Magic God has long since disappeared, the network of magic systems he built


    before his disappearance is still in operation. Vincent is cursed and permanently out of touch


    with this network because he is unable to use magic.


    Time passed slowly, and two months later, Vincent woke up from his bed one ordinary


    morning. After a night''s rest, Vincent was now in good condition. Today, he thought he would


    try his hand at magic. With the knowledge of the Enigma books, he completely revised his


    understanding of the principles of magic. The old theory of "faction spells" had been rejected


    by him. He had replaced it with the theory of "faction spells." Shield is no longer a purely


    protective spell, it has been broken down into "force field component", "protective


    component", "moving component", "blocking component", "Time component" and


    "sustaining component". This approach greatly increased the difficulty of using magic, making


    a simple spell require several times more mental effort to remember. Vincent, who used to


    be able to use level 7 magic, has only just figured out the most basic tricks. This time, Linshen


    has become a true "sorcerer''s apprentice". However, he gives Vincent hope, the hope of using


    magic again.


    Slowly, Vincent held out his right hand and recited the spell. The tension made his heart beat


    violently, and large beads of sweat seeped from his forehead. He stared intently at his right


    hand: a pale blue light began to shine on the tips of his index fingers.


    Vincent looked at his finger and thought, for the second time in his life, that Illuminatry was


    the greatest magic in the world.
