The adult trial of grey robe was once regarded by cheese as a test of whether the apprentice can reasonably apply the knowledge he has learned. But after many years, he saw other gray robes which had been tested one after another, and he gradually had a new view on this trial. The frost guards stationed on Longji mountain have a cruel tradition that has been abolished. When children grow to 16 years old, only one spear is allowed to be sent into the dense forest in the mountains. He or she must return to the tribe with a prey no smaller than an adult boar to be recognized.
This extreme clan rule has been abolished for many years. Interestingly, the reason why it was abolished at that time was not that some people thought it was too cruel, only because the valley began to trade with Longji, and the Legion had enough resources to support more people. In an environment where there is no way to survive, there has never been any warmth. Similar rituals or traditions can also be found in other cultures. Children must prove that they have the ability to survive independently when they are old enough. Limited group resources cannot support those who are useless. This kind of tradition is often called the rite of passage.
The adult trial of grey robes is also a kind of rite of passage. It''s just that it''s relatively gentle, because by the means of the grey robed apprentices, if they don''t want to die, there''s really not much that can kill them in the world. But in addition to testing survivability, the trial also has more complex implications. The grey tower is not a settlement in a hostile environment, and the grey robes do not need to undertake hunting or farming tasks in this group. They will even leave the tower as adults. This is also the biggest difference between trial and common adult ceremony. Adult ceremony is to prove that individuals can work for the group
It is to let the apprentices leave the grey tower naturally. This abnormal feeling is finally clear at this time, cheese at this moment to understand what is wrong with the adult trial. The grey robes, which have passed the adult trial, are hardly left in the grey tower, even those like the sleeper. This is not so much a test given to them by their teachers, but rather it is the Lord of the grey tower who pushes his apprentices out of the tower in such a way as to deliberately throw them into the varied world and let them go deep into it and never come back. The Lord of the grey tower did not want his apprentices to serve him after the trial. On the contrary.
He wants them to live for themselves. It was as if he had planned that he would disappear one day, so he began to let the chicks learn to be independent. But he still did not think that those chicks who had left the nest at first sight had been looking at his back in the shade of the trees. When his back really disappeared, their panic began to appear. Teacher, did you expect this step? If you don''t, you will have miscalculation. If you have, then you are really cruel. Compared with the nominal trial, this is the real bar mitzvah. You want us to kill ourselves as apprentices.
The thought, because draws the conclusion and stops. Of course, it could be that the arms had touched his ankles. Since cheese has destroyed Dionysian''s body first, it seems that the other side has no reason to stay. The arm flying from all directions fell on the body, and the mage would be torn into pieces in the shape of an adult. When you are in the opponent''s territory, you are surrounded by an unavoidable attack. Your arms are weak and unable to cast. It''s a hopeless situation, isn''t it? Such a hopeless situation should not appear too many times for a grey robe who is used to scheming and then moving. Last time it appeared, it seemed that it was a big fire.
"I don''t need to tell anyone who doesn''t want to look into my eyes this time." Cheese said to himself, the magic light in his eyes gradually turned into another color that was hard to describe. So the world, in his observation, tends to be still, and the hands that cling to his clothes and flesh seem to float in the air. The chain like tattoo reappeared, which made the mage feel the pain of soaking in boiling water.
This kind of pain was not found in the destruction of Dionysian''s human body. Why? Is it because of the high emotion that makes the body forget the pain? No, it shouldn''t be. It''s hard to forget the pain. So why didn''t these chains work before, when the force that erupted was stronger than it is now. Unless, at that time, what I used was not the power it needed to limit. Really? It seems that before I know all kinds of external things, I really lack of understanding of myself. But also, who can really structure themselves to the details.
In the pain, the mage thought and walked to the door. In such a state, no matter magic, arms or wooden doors could really hinder him. And when he was about to walk out of the room, there was a faint voice in the tree root behind him, like from deep water, "are you going to escape? How many more times can you escape like this
The cheese head did not return and continued to walk. He replied in a calm tone, "I am here because I want to meet a man who is called Dionysian by my classmates and I. He''s grey, too. Now, there is no such person here, only a mysterious ghost thing that does not even have one''s own body. The last thing I want to tell you is that although I can''t use the original magic, I know that in the shaman world, there is no concept of self. Their metamorphosis, travel and trance are not for themselves, but for the unconscious. You are different. You attach so much importance to yourself that you devour and enslave other creatures. This is not the original magic at all. It''s just like a sewing monster, you keep sewing what you find on yourself. Just follow the worm and exist in such an ugly way until you destroy yourselfWhen cheese came out of the tree hole, he realized that he had lost one of his classmates in the world. Without the body, Dionysian''s lack of consciousness will not disappear. He will use his magic to flow between different forms, but it takes time and energy to adapt and assimilate those forms. Therefore, he can drive bats and earth bears, but he can only attach himself to trees to command the broken arms. Maybe one day, the things in that tree hole will become a terrible monster for the disaster side, but it will be a long time later. Now cheese, I don''t want to take care of it. In that cave, he witnessed the fall of a gray robe and destroyed it as a gray robe.
The shadow of the knot, drawn in the afterglow of the sunset, cast a shadow like a gallows in front of the mage. Cheese took a deep breath and walked over. His robe rubbed against the grass leaves on the ground. The dry grass leaves were ignited in an instant and turned into sparks, which floated in the wind and fell on the knots. The knots around the log became torches. Interestingly, only they were burning. The fire didn''t seem interested in anything else.
"Chirp!" The goshawk howled in the air, and the grey robe looked up. He was sure he had let the Falcon return to its owner, unless the latter sent it out again.
"They still have spare time to pay attention to me. Does this mean that the recovery of nuisa is going well?" Sad color, appeared on the face of cheese, and the contact with Dionysian let his heart taste mixed, but also let him determine one thing. It''s not the former grey robe that spreads worm power among the wolf Lord tribe. Dionysian only cares about himself. That means, Lothar, they may meet some unexpected opponents.
"Better go back soon."
