Herlin had been feeling down all day. A supernatural power? This was something that only existed in the imaginations of art in his previous life! Now, it had actually appeared before Herlin, and it was so close to him.
He was born into the Will family, one of the three major knight families!
Moreover, his father was the youngest Grand Knight in the Federation and the Lord of Weiyuan Territory. His brother and sister had also awakened the White Wolf Totem, but he had only awakened the Yellow Snake Totem.
Being able to only look at it but not eat it makes people feel more desperate than if it were out of reach.
'No, I am also a sorcerer, and this one seems to have extraordinary powers.' Herlin thought excitedly
"I remember when I was studying literature with Mr. Ham, there were many mythical poems and biographies that described them."
Although the parts about sorcerers are all clowns responsible for making people laugh, there is no doubt that sorcerers are a group of humanoids with extraordinary powers.
Their generation is random, not passed down from generation to generation in a family.
Their abilities are varied and unpredictable. Some are extremely powerful and have incredible effects, while others are very ordinary, with little power and little effect.
Their superpowers are called innate witchcraft.
"I used to think of them as myths or fairy tales, but now that I know this is a world with extraordinary powers, then the records in these literary works are proof that sorcerers possess extraordinary powers." Herlin thought silently.
"We need to find someone to confirm it."
Herlin looked at the coin-sized totem tattoo on the palm of his right hand and said to himself
"Scholars are the recorders of civilization and wisdom. They are knowledgeable and know everything."
There is a saying in this world: If you don’t know something, ask a scholar.
"Teacher Ham, I want to learn about wizards, is that okay?"
Teacher Ham is over sixty years old, with silver hair and a face full of wrinkles, but he loves to talk and laugh, and he likes to be a teacher. He likes young people who are eager to learn to ask him questions the most.
However, after hearing Herlin's question, Ham asked seriously:
"Why do you want to learn about sorcerers? You used to be dismissive of them."
"Because I used to think those supernatural powers were fake, so I didn't pay much attention to them, but..."
"But after seeing the knights go off to battle today, you believe in the existence of supernatural powers and want to possess them?"
"Um."
“Really…”
I added in my mind: 'What a curious child.'
"Remember the sorcerers in the poems and biographies you read?"
"Well, remember, they are mostly clowns responsible for making people laugh."
"Actually, there are two types of sorcerers. One is a sorcerer who actively uses witchcraft, and the other is a sorcerer who never uses witchcraft in their entire lives. The former are enslaved by supernatural powers and have a short lifespan. The latter, however, live a long life because they don't use witchcraft. Which one would you choose?"
The stubborn character that he had when he was researching consciousness chips in his previous life broke out again, but this time the target was not the consciousness chip, but witchcraft and supernatural powers.
After determining his scientific research goals in this life, he felt inexplicably excited. Even though Teacher Ham had told him many disadvantages, it still couldn't shake his will.
Herlin knew that he couldn't get any more information from Teacher Ham, so he stood up and left.
Ham was silent for a long time before he said to himself
"Another sorcerer obsessed with supernatural powers. What a pity for the seed of a great scholar." As he said this, he glanced at the palm of his right hand with a look of loneliness in his eyes.
'Apart from knights and scholars, perhaps only the senior wizards can give me guidance and tell me how to become a wizard!'
As far as Herlin knew, his medical teacher Tano was a sorcerer.
I'd heard him casually mention that his sorcerer totem was a rat emitting black mist. Its name was 'Plague.' It was a great being in charge of spreading and eradicating plague. He became a doctor because his sorcery was to see disease.
Through witchcraft, he could see the location of the diseased qi, its strength, and how it changed under the influence of different medicines. Relying on this witchcraft, he could accurately judge the efficacy of medicines, making him a highly skilled physician.
Tano said that this was not witchcraft, but divine magic, a blessing from God. At that time, Tano gave him the feeling of a devout believer.
There were quite a few sick people tonight, and he happened to run into it, so he was drafted by Tano. After finishing his work, in the small pavilion in the backyard of the hospital, He Lin took the opportunity to ask
"Teacher Tano, I want to learn about sorcerers, is that okay?"
Tano was a very gentleman. His every word and action was very polite. However, Herlin didn't like Tano very much, because he always felt that such politeness hid many secrets. In contrast, Mr. Ham, who was not polite and loved to talk and laugh, struck Herlin as sincere and reliable.
Interestingly, the gentleman theory was proposed by a scholar, but Professor Ham felt that the scholar was a disgrace to the academic community. This theory is simply destroying a free and fair federation.
He admired the proponents of the theoretical school among doctors, believing that they provided guidance for doctors and pointed the way for human health and longevity, and that they were truly great doctors.
On the contrary, Tano liked the gentleman's theory very much, but was full of hostility towards the theoretical advocates among doctors, and believed that he was the gravedigger of doctors.
"When I saw you coming to help, I thought it was strange. You're not a technical doctor."
In recent years, the dispute between theorists and technical factions in the Medical City has become increasingly fierce, and even many physicians and doctors outside the Medical City have been affected.
Tano often teased Hering, saying that he was a staunch technical representative, but he had taught a staunch theoretical representative.
Herlin chose to remain silent. He knew that Tano would tell him. Ever since Tano had advocated for witchcraft in front of him, he had probably been waiting for this day!
"Wizard, are you interested in sorcery now? Is it because the knight who passed by the castle made you desire supernatural powers?"
"You know what? Sorcerers are taboo in Nanzhao Country. If you find one, you will be captured. Do you know why?"
"Because of a sorcerer thirty years ago..."
Tano stopped talking and fell into silence.
"Your father didn't tell you how to practice witchcraft for your own good. Because once you start practicing witchcraft, you can't stop even if you want to."
Looking at Herin with a determined look, Tano sighed softly
“Ignorance is fearlessness.”
After a moment of silence, Tano's voice sounded again
"Contemplate the totem, and you will sense its presence."
When Herlin stood up and walked out, he heard Tano say in a pious tone:
"Remember, His name is Wa, and He is the great being who controls the earth and creation."
