Chapter 170 A musical instrument that transcends time

The next day, early morning.

Yeats was reading a book while having breakfast in the garden when a snowy owl flapped its wings and flew over, saying, "Coo!"

Master, the senior from the Mage Guild is here to visit you!

"Old senior?" Ye Zhi was stunned. "How old is he exactly?"

Snowy Owl described the specific appearance of the foreign visitor.

Ye Zhi's expression became serious, and he warned Snowy Owl, "Don't ever mention the word old in front of her."

"Huh?" The Snowy Owl tilted its head.

Ye Zhi: "I'm afraid that Megan will get angry. After all, she has always been averse to topics related to age..."

Ye Zhi pondered…No matter how old Megan is, just call her sister!

A graceful woman in a black robe, with an elegant and calm smile on her beautiful face and a cluster of white hair among her soft black hair that was particularly eye-catching, walked slowly into the garden.

“Sister Megan, why are you here?”

Ye Zhi's acting skills burst out and he asked in surprise.

The black-haired witch smiled even more brightly, making the red roses beside her pale in comparison. She said in a graceful and amiable manner:

"Yeats, I heard from Kendra that you were attacked by a werewolf. I happened to be traveling near here, so I came to see you."

"Thank you for your concern, Sister Megan." Ye Zhi asked curiously, "What about Teacher Kendra? What is he busy with?"

"He is at Taimu River University, preparing for the Magic Goddess Trial, and cannot be free for the time being."

Megan smiled slightly and said, "He asked me to tell you part of the trial, which is also one of the purposes of my trip."

Ye Zhi was stunned and said, "This... Can you tell me this?"

"Of course." The black-haired witch smiled, "It's just a hint. Other teachers will also indirectly hint their students. It's just that your teacher happens to be Kendra."

Yeats sighed…This shows the importance of background!

Megan smiled and said, "Listen carefully, the first trial is [rowing]."

Ye Zhi was slightly surprised.

"What does the trial of the Magic Goddess have to do with rowing?" Ye Zhi asked in surprise.

Megan said with a smile: "This will test cooperation, wisdom, resilience and many other factors. Besides, the two universities have a long tradition of dragon boat racing."

The dragon boat here refers to the dragon head warship of the Northern Pirates. It is light and narrow, with oar holes on both sides. Sailors can turn quickly by paddling, which is extremely flexible.

Ye Zhi imagined the scene of the owl standing on the boat and looking around awkwardly, then he coughed dryly and said, "Owl...how do you row a boat?"

Megan smiled and gave a suggestion, saying, "According to the rules, the members of the two ships can cast spells on each other, and the Snowy Owl can use spells to constantly interfere with the other side."

The spells that the Snowy Owl masters, such as acceleration and wind wall, can all work wonders in rowing competitions.

Ye Zhi regained some confidence that Snow Owl had passed the test, and asked, "What about the second test?"

"I'll give you another hint before the second trial."

Megan waved her hand gently, and the pocket on her waist floated and opened. A sealed scroll flew out and landed in her palm.

"I have a second purpose for coming to see you this time." Megan smiled, "which is to bring you the reward that Xiao Fina gave you."

"Little...Fina?" Ye Zhi noticed Megan's address and felt subtle.

Even among the long-lived elves, Principal Fina is already very old. So what is Megan's real age...

Megan's smile seemed to disappear in an instant, and she glanced at Yeats calmly.

At this moment, there seemed to be a strong sense of oppression looming.

Ye Zhi calmly added, "Is Sister Megan Principal Fina's student?"

Megan smiled and said, "How is that possible? Haha, I just have some personal connections with her... Here, this is the scroll of the Moonlight Sword, which has the matching Moonlight Breathing Technique. It is very valuable."

The scroll is placed in a tube made of jade, which looks warm and emits a faint silver light like moonlight.

"Moonlight Sword? Is it a calculation technique or a combat skill?" Ye Zhi was curious.

"To be precise, it belongs to the category of combat skills, but a lot of knowledge related to moonlight magic will be applied during the study process."

Megan took Ye Zhi's hand and placed the scroll in his palm, like a kind elder, and patted his shoulder: "This is Xiao... This is Principal Fina's important gain in the Luna Ruins."

"Combined with the Moonlight Breathing Technique, the Moonlight Sword combat skill is not inferior even to the famous skills of the High Ring Knight."

"I will stay at Jianhe University for a while." Megan smiled warmly. "If you want to learn this combat skill and encounter knowledge of moonlight spells that you don't understand, you can ask me for advice."

The Moonlight Sword combat skill has a very high upper limit. Even if Ye Zhi changes his job to become a three-ring sword dancing poet, he can still use it as a signature combat skill.

The key point is that Ye Zhi remembered that the special effects of this fighting skill in the game were extremely gorgeous. When performing swordsmanship, one could bathe oneself in a silver-white fighting spirit called "moonlight".

Strength is only temporary, handsomeness is lifelong! Moonlight Douqi undoubtedly satisfies Ye Zhi's need for fashion value.

Yeats nodded with satisfaction.

What kind of family breathing method is this? I'm not familiar with it.

I will now change to practicing the Moonlight Breathing Method, and strive to develop the Moonlight Fighting Qi as soon as possible!

"I can also be considered as half of your teacher——"

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

Megan took out a ring that shone with a bright silver light and was exquisite and elegant. She smiled and said, "This is a moonstone ring. It will be of great help to your study of the Moonlight Sword. I'll give it to you as a gift."

Including this "Moonstone Ring", Yeats currently has a total of three rings on her body. The other two are the Bad Words Ring and the "Underwater Breathing Ring" made from the "Water Fairy Tear Gem".

In reality, there is no such thing as an equipment bar.

As long as it could increase attributes, Ye Zhi would like to wear rings on all ten fingers.

There was no reason to refuse Megan's gift.

Ye Zhi thanked him and took the moonstone ring.

The moonstone inlaid in the ring flashed a bright silver light for a moment, and then returned to calm.

Ye Zhi was startled and looked at Megan: "What's going on?"

Megan's eyes were also filled with surprise, and she explained, "This ring can, to a certain extent, determine whether you have the talent for moonlight magic..."

"Kandela said that your magical talent is comparable to his."

Megan thought of the dazzling moonlight just now, her eyes sparkled, and she said, "I watched Kendela grow up. In my opinion, he underestimated your magical talent and overestimated himself!"

Ye Zhi: “…”

Megan's words seemed to have accidentally revealed something...

In the two days after the exploration of the Luna ruins, Principal Fina did not arrange any classes for Ye Zhi out of consideration for his recuperation.

Ye Zhi has been learning the [Moonlight Sword] from Megan in the past two days, with remarkable results.

The knight's professional level has been steadily improving, his Moonlight Breathing Technique has made initial progress, and his skilled swordsmanship is steadily moving towards the proficient level.

The werewolf incident has officially come to an end.

Yeats's story of solving the real murderer was only circulated in a small circle, but it still caused a heated response.

Mara, the teacher of the Transfiguration course, even came to visit in person and gave a Transfiguration Amulet as a thank you gift, which can provide attribute gains such as the grace of a cat and the toughness of a bear when a druid or wizard transforms into a specific animal.

Ye Zhi himself did not know how to transform, so he put the amulet away and prepared to leave it for Regirev in the territory to use.

The time came when the Duke of Vic held a dinner party at his home.

Dean Richard came to the palace, invited Yeats to go with him, and revealed the rumors he had heard.

"Duke Wick invited Lothar, the son of the Elector Duke of Saxony, to the dinner."

Richard stroked his beard and said, "I heard that Lothair's accompanying poet also brought a new musical instrument from the imperial capital of Tofanna. It is said to be a product of a new era, and no one in the entire Golden Lion has ever seen it."

"What instrument?"

"It seems to be called... Harpsichord?"
