[Chapter 90 Sharon’s Dream of Being a Mage]

Leonard and the others made armor? Of course it was impossible! Even if they were all protagonists (situation comedy) and top scientists, it didn’t mean that they could just casually create a set of high-tech armor.

Even for Tony Stark, who lived in the Marvel Universe full of black technology and had the aura of a protagonist, there were basic prerequisites for making armor by hand – the people who kidnapped Tony provided him with a lot of advanced materials. Otherwise, even if Tony had the ability to make armor with his bare hands, it would take him a long time to build a set of armor that could be used for combat from scratch.

Winter Village didn’t have so many advanced materials and lacked sufficient technical accumulation. Even if the crystal mine solved the energy problem, the troubles of various materials and mechanical structures could not be solved overnight.

“It should be possible to make it in the future!”

“Tsk!”

Sharon pouted. She thought David, the village chief, was doing some secret research! This disappointed Sharon, who had nothing to do in the village all day and could only exercise her abilities and learn new knowledge.

“By the way, everyone has been learning about the mysterious side of knowledge during this period. Don’t you have any special power you want to master?” David knew that everyone had read those notes, but he didn’t know who learned what in the end.

He only knew that Mark, Leonard, Sheldon and others seemed to have given up after trying the wizard’s notes, and were currently trying other professions.

Steve has become a Paladin and a part-time Shaman, and is currently focusing on learning various skills of the Paladin – apart from anything else, the Avenger’s Shield is simply tailor-made for Steve.

David saw two days ago that Steve, who had just started practicing this move, could easily hit five or six targets with a shield containing holy light. After the flying shield, which was originally unscientific, was blessed by the holy light, it trampled the word “science” under its feet more thoroughly and repeatedly crushed it.

Will and Elizabeth seemed to have tried the wizard’s knowledge as well, and they also failed.

Eva was still choosing. She didn’t know which one she should choose, and she even asked David for advice. David said that when he came back from this trip, if Eva hadn’t decided yet, he would help her choose a power that suited her.

As for which power Peggy and Sharon chose, David had no idea.

“I’m actually very interested in the knowledge of mages, and I can clearly sense the existence of arcane energy, but I can’t mobilize this energy, let alone absorb it.” Sharon frowned tightly when talking about this. She was actually a very strong-willed girl, so she never mentioned the difficulties she encountered to anyone, but just kept struggling with the arcane energy: “I always feel that the arcane energy is bound by something.”

“Is that so?” It was not the first time that David heard someone say that the reaction of the arcane energy was not right. The last person who said so was Steve. For

a person who can be recognized by the Holy Light and the elemental power at the same time, why is the arcane energy not moving? Judging from Steve’s initial description, the arcane energy should have opened its arms to the American captain.

Previously, he thought that after Steve accepted the Holy Light, the arcane energy “automatically chose to retreat”, but from Sharon’s description, things were different from what he guessed.

“Could it be that… the arcane energy in this world is imprisoned?”

“Imprisoned? Can arcane energy be imprisoned?” Sharon looked at David in surprise. She didn’t know much about this mysterious thing. All her knowledge came from the notes brought back by Fording. Those notes didn’t mention this situation.

“It’s possible…” Thanks to the various miscellaneous books he had read and the large number of games he had played, David made a reasonable guess based on Sharon and Steve’s description: “In some worlds, although arcane energy also exists, and the concentration of arcane energy is even very high, it is restrained and controlled by some powerful forces, so that all arcane users can only use this energy according to the rules he has set.”

David briefly introduced the setting of the magic network. In the world where the magic network system exists, mages can only obtain “casting permission” in a specific way. Unless the caster is stronger than the powerful being who made the magic network rules, there is no way to break this system, and can only use spells according to the rules within this framework.

Sharon listened to David’s description and soon found the difference between the setting David mentioned and the situation she felt: “You are talking about casting spells, and it seems that there is no restriction on arcane energy.” The

magic network system restricts magic, not magic power, which seems to be completely different from what Sharon encountered.

“What I mean is that maybe there is a more powerful existence in this world, and a more stringent system similar to the magic network has been formulated, and even arcane energy is restricted. You must use specific methods to mobilize arcane energy.” David spread his hands: “I am just guessing based on the situation you and Steve mentioned, combined with some knowledge I know, not to say that my guess is necessarily correct.”

“I understand.” Sharon nodded. David was just guessing, and at present, this guess is quite reliable: “Does that mean that I can’t become a mage?”

“Although I don’t know why you all like mages so much, it’s not impossible to become a mage.” David found that this group of people in the village, one by one, when there are several career choices, all swarmed to the mage. The charm of the mage is really great: “Find the mage in this world and ask about the situation and you will know.”

Sharon can sense arcane energy, proving that she has a good talent for mages, but the knowledge of mages in Azeroth is limited in this world. As long as she finds the right method, Sharon can become a mage.

“It doesn’t sound that easy.” Sharon sighed. It seems that she has to give up the idea of becoming a powerful mage. Maybe she should learn from Peggy, not to worry about the knowledge of mages, or even the profession, but to see what she can learn from those things?

Sharon fell into silence, and David did not continue to speak. The two of them and their horses galloped at high speed on the snowfield, and soon they saw the Snowfield Castle that had not yet been built.

This northern fortress decided to be built by Iron Tree Castle was just a small town surrounded by walls built of wood, a small part of stone and a large amount of mud. It did not look like the most important fortress in the northern plains.

Using a telescope to observe from a distance for a while, David and Sharon only saw a few people moving on the wall. Most people should be hiding in the house to avoid the cold and wait for the arrival of spring.

“These people seem to have suffered a lot.” David looked at it with gloating for a while, and then put away the telescope.

“Shouldn’t we go in and take a look?” Sharon also put away the telescope and watched David turn his horse’s head, obviously not intending to go to Snowfield Castle.

“No, there’s no benefit in contacting these people before arriving at Iron Tree Castle.” David felt that once he entered Snowfield Castle, who knows if there would be any assassination, frame-up, beating or other bad things.

Even if nothing happened in Snowfield Castle, there was no guarantee of what would happen on the road. In order to avoid these possible things, he decided to bypass Snowfield Castle and head straight to the North Outpost – I wonder if this outpost was renamed after the Forrest family built a new border town?

“Then let’s keep going!” Sharon felt that David’s decision made some sense, so she put the thick hood back on her head and tightened her cloak to wrap herself more tightly.

As soon as he turned his horse’s head, he saw David waving at him gently. A golden light fell on him, making him feel warm all over: “Can the Holy Light be used like this?”

“Yes!” This is what Laura told David. When Laura was exploring Siberia, she found that the warmth-keeping effect of the Holy Light was very outstanding, which made Laura not worry about the harsh weather in Siberia at all: “Is it very convenient? Otherwise, you should also learn the Holy Light.”

“I’ll consider it.”

The two of them galloped south on two horses and soon arrived at the North Post.

The soldiers in the post had been replaced by a group of people. They didn’t know David. In addition, there were villages and towns of the Kingdom of Tilan on the northern plains, so the people coming from the north were not curious. They just looked at Sharon a few more times.

David didn’t communicate too much with these soldiers. After knowing that the North Post had been renamed the North Plain Post, David didn’t ask more questions. After

a night’s rest, he and Sharon set out for Iron Tree Castle the next morning and soon arrived at their destination.

The top warhorses from Azeroth have strong endurance and can run at high speed for a long time. After David stroked the warhorse under his crotch with emotion for a while, he and Sharon moved into the town while looking at the dirty, messy and smelly Iron Tree Castle in front of them.

“Is this Iron Tree Castle?” Sharon frowned and almost fell off the horse because of the smell that rushed into her lungs. She shook on the horse for a few times and finally stabilized her body. She frowned and pinched her nose with her hand: “Although I have made mental preparations, this is…”

David wanted to laugh at Sharon, but he had lived in a clean place for several years and couldn’t stand the environment here. He could only endure the discomfort and quickly enter the inner city.

“Let’s go find Marloni Mansfield. The environment in the inner city is much better.” David was going to contact the only familiar Marloni, and through this local noble of Iron Tree Castle, he would inquire more information and determine whether he could achieve his goal in Iron Tree Castle in the shortest time.

As a result, things developed faster than David expected. He didn’t even meet Maroney Mansfield. After he revealed his identity and asked to visit, David only received a note sent by Maroney at the door: Sorry, I can’t do anything!

Looking at this concise note, David called Sharon and left Iron Tree Castle decisively.

“Let’s go to the capital!”
