Chapter 137: The Sage's Sudden Enlightenment
"Anything else? Anything else?" Budno asked excitedly.
Angel wrote down his thoughts as he read: "When you go to the human world, don't stare at girls all the time. You'll be mistaken for a pervert."
Danlov: ...
Shu Li glanced at him sympathetically.
The Dharma Saint who was once highly respected by people was actually a rookie and made many mistakes.
Danlov finished his tea, put down the cup, and continued to talk about his dark history when he first entered the human world.
I've talked about this and that, so I might as well finish it.
After fleeing the village, he wandered aimlessly.
More than six hundred years have passed, and things and people have changed. He can no longer remember where the village where he was born is.
The past cannot be retrieved, but the future can still be looked forward to.
He decided to try his luck in the atrium and see if he could find a job in the magic tower to lay the foundation for helping the Elf King in the future.
He lived in a small village as a typical country boy when he was young. After he turned six, he grew up in the Elf Kingdom. He was ignorant of the ways of the world. On the way, he took a carriage and ate a piece of bread given by a fellow passenger. He fell into a coma. When he woke up, he found himself in a mine and was about to be sold as a mining slave.
He immediately cast a spell and caused a big disturbance in the mine, scaring the slave owners so much that they knelt down and begged for mercy. At his request, the slave owners had to release thousands of deceived and abducted slaves and restore their freedom.
After leaving the mine, he told himself that he could no longer trust anyone easily.
The elves were right, most humans are not good people.
He lets down his guard because he is a human being and has illusions about humans.
Every failure is a learning experience.
After that, he became much more cautious and finally was not cheated by others again.
"Humans are so evil!" Dizio was incredulous. He was knocked unconscious just for eating a piece of bread, and then sent to the mines as a slave?
Budno rubbed his arms and warned himself: "I don't like bread, I don't like bread, I don't like bread..."
Woo woo woo~~The bread is so delicious, he can’t resist it at all!
If humans tempt themselves with food, they will be completely unable to refuse!
Angel solemnly noted: "Don't eat food from strangers, or you will be sold into slavery!"
Danlov looked at the silver-haired young goblin, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Shu Li could quite understand Danlov's "simplicity".
He had been in the Elven Kingdom since he was five or six years old, and had lived in a beautiful environment for a long time, so it was understandable that he was kind-hearted. Even if the elves talked about some things in the outside world, without experiencing them personally, he would never know the bottom line of human nature.
For example, he has lived in the fairy forest for fifteen years, but he doesn’t feel that he has grown much. Instead, he is influenced by other fairies and occasionally does some childish things.
The environment has a subtle influence on people. Children who grow up in love and care tend to mature relatively late.
Danlov's story was too long, so he jumped around and told some interesting stories, trying to avoid the dark history.
He followed the elves' advice and tried to keep a low profile when he was out.
So when he first entered the human world, he wore tattered clothes, had a beard on his face, and looked sloppy. No wonder he was mistaken for a pervert by the villagers.
Because he looked so down and out, he became a target for human traffickers.
Arriving at a big city, he was stopped outside the city gate by the guards because he had no proof of nationality, no magic badge, and no swordsman honor card. He was considered a refugee and could not enter the city.
He survived for a while by relying on the food he brought from the Elf Kingdom. After encountering setbacks everywhere, he finally understood that being low-key does not mean being mediocre, and that one must be high-key when it is time to be high-key.
He changed into a gorgeous magic robe, regaining his original handsome and youthful appearance. Holding a high-level magic wand in his hand, he teleported directly into the city and went to the Magic Association to take the magic badge exam.
The magicians from the Magic Association were almost blinded by the advanced equipment on him. They welcomed him in respectfully and tested him. Wow, the crystal ball exploded directly and the magic penetrated the test wall instantly when he cast the magic.
Dharma Saint!
Only a mage can penetrate the test wall.
All the magicians of the Magic Association were excited and wrote letters of recommendation to the Atrium Magic Tower, inviting Danlov to the Magic Tower to enhance the strength of the Atrium.
In that era, magicians were weak and there were only a few cities with magic associations. The emergence of the Mage Saint was crucial to the Atrium.
Danlov took the letter of recommendation and walked to the front courtyard, embarking on the road to the peak of his life.
The little elves listened with great interest, their eyes sparkling with admiration, and they exclaimed "Wow" from time to time.
Shu Li listened and took notes, marveling at what he heard.
After Danlov went to the atrium, the story started with the hero as the protagonist.
In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are paper tigers.
The atrium has long been occupied by some corrupt old guys, who harbor filth and form cliques. Some families also take advantage of the situation and the relationships are so complicated that ordinary people cannot get involved at all.
When Danlov arrived, he stirred up the muddy waters, and then he cut the Gordian knot and cut off all the trivial matters. In just three years, he cleared out the bad elements in the magic tower.
Not convinced?
Don't hold it in if you don't agree.
Who made him the only human mage at that time?
Where did this human Dharma Saint come from?
Danlov did not hide anything at all. He was a human blessed by the Elf King. He grew up in the Elf Kingdom. Now he returned to the human world to help human magicians return to the top of the world.
What inspiring words!
The magicians who had been oppressed for a long time were in ecstasy and madly praised Danlov. Their voices were so powerful that they suppressed all the voices of opposition. In this way, Danlov became the master of the atrium.
“Pah pah pah——”
The four young goblins clapped excitedly.
Although Danlov only picked out a few excerpts and briefly mentioned the others, the little elves were excited and their hearts were pounding when they heard them.
Shu Li looked at Danlov with eyes full of respect.
What is a brave man?
This is a brave man!
With his own strength, he changed the situation, held up his backbone, and made the world re-evaluate the status of magicians.
So awesome!
Danlov could hardly suppress the waves in his heart at this moment.
It had been a long time since he had recalled the past so carefully. The once forgotten zeal, passion, fighting spirit, ideals, resilience and courage were all revived at this moment. His blood was boiling, his soul was trembling, and the depression in his chest disappeared.
He suddenly had a sense of awakening and exclaimed, "So that's how it is." Then, he sat down cross-legged and instantly entered a state of meditation.
The four little goblins were stunned by his sudden action.
What's going on?
They looked at each other, confused.
"Danlov?" Angel called softly.
"Shh..." Ilio appeared in the library at some point and raised his finger to silence the goblin.
"He's entered a state of meditation." The Elf King stood beside a bookshelf, holding a half-read book in his hand, and looked at the four young goblins with a gentle gaze. "You have given him an epiphany."
Shu Li was surprised.
So the king has always been there?
He and his friends were completely unaware of it.
All I can say is that Danlov’s story was so exciting that it attracted all their attention.
"Epiphany? We didn't do anything!" Budno said puzzledly.
Shu Li didn't understand either.
They really didn't do anything but ask Danlov to tell his story.
The Elf King put the book back on the shelf, walked gracefully to the desk, and reached out to touch Shu Li's hair. "You helped him find himself again."
Angel held up his notebook. "Can telling stories help me find myself?"
Elio blinked. "It depends on one's understanding."
Disio said with admiration, "Danlov is an extremely powerful human mage. His comprehension must be very high!"
Elio patted his head and smiled, "Yes, so let's not disturb his meditation. It's time to go to lunch."
As soon as he heard about lunch, Budno immediately covered his hungry stomach.
“Gurgle—”
My stomach growled.
"I'm so hungry~~" he said pitifully.
Elio reached out and pinched his soft cheek. "You missed lunch, so of course you're hungry."
Danlov was a good speaker and told stories in an exciting and vivid way. Not only were the little elves fascinated by the story, but he himself was also listening with great interest standing by.
The goblins immediately put away their notebooks and quills, tiptoed out of the library, and headed straight for the restaurant.
The elf in charge of lunch left them a rich meal, which they ate voraciously.
In the afternoon, Danlov was still meditating, and the goblins didn't have to go to class and played happily.
In the evening, Shu Li was thinking about the desert adventure team and Fruit No. 3, so he found an excuse and returned to his room early.
[Oenomisis, has the adventuring team made any progress?]
'They've gone to another oasis now, and there's been no progress.'
Shu Li rubbed his hands, his eyes determined.
[I want to eavesdrop again.]
After listening to Danlov's story today, he felt that he had not done enough. He must find the elemental spirits as soon as possible to improve his strength.
"Why not wait until they've made some progress?" the mother tree advised.
[When there is progress, it will be too late.]
Shu Li insisted on going, so the mother tree had to agree and repeatedly reminded him not to leave her roots.
Don't worry, I'll be careful.
Shu Li turned into a short man, put on advanced equipment, put on a hood, sneaked out of the window, flew stealthily along the grass, approached the mother tree, and when there was no one around, quickly got into the trunk.
After a while, Angel stood at the door of Shu Li's room and knocked on it. "Sperian, I have something to talk to you about."
There was no response from inside, and Angel's amber eyes showed a look of confusion.
It's the elves' entertainment time, but Sperien went to bed?
Can't it?
Didn’t he say he was going back to his room to study?
Angel tried to push the door, but it was not closed tightly and was pushed open. It was pitch black inside.
