Chapter 109 Are We Really That Extraordinary?

"I haven't explained to anyone for a long time the necessity of this rule. Other apprentices will only passively execute it and never ask why." At this point, Olivan sighed, "The mind is closed and destined to go far on the road of magic."

Then he said to Claya with a gratitude, "It's only you who have such a strong curiosity. Perhaps this is why you are so outstanding."

In the practice of magic, learning hard to learn the knowledge of books will definitely not work. Because no matter how good you learn the knowledge in books, you cannot surpass the person who wrote the book, so a certain degree of curiosity is essential.

Only with curiosity can you have the motivation to explore and pursue the truth, and go further and further on the road of magic. This is also a very important part of magical talent. After all, teachers can teach you knowledge, but they cannot stuff curiosity into your mind.

Of course, what we are talking about here is a certain curiosity, which has a limit. If it exceeds this limit, it becomes excess curiosity, and the result of excessive curiosity... Countless mages and sorcerers have used their lives and souls to explain to you what the outcome is.

"I want to listen to your teachings." Claya, who was praised, said with a smile.

"About five hundred years ago, the Supreme Master Gu Yidi established a memorial service and formulated this rule." Olifan began to explain the origin of this rule. "At that time, people in the secular world were still very ignorant. Even a wizard who was not good at learning could make trouble in the secular world. Using the ignorance of the secular people, he could almost get everything he wanted, all the strength, money, and a sense of accomplishment in the secular world. However, this was achieved based on the destruction of the secular world."

"So" Olifan's face showed an admiration. "The Supreme Master strictly prohibited the mage from communicating with the secular world too deeply. Facts prove that the Supreme Master is wise. The secular world has embarked on a path beyond magic and has developed well."

Whether the mage who came to the secular world used magic to rule terror, or selfless dedication to govern the country with kindness, it would seriously restrict the development of human civilization.

Because for humans on Earth, magic is not something that everyone can learn, and only a very small number of people have this talent. However, human civilization and human development cannot be supported by this small number of people.

When natural science continues to develop, they will eventually be pulled down from the altar, from being worshipped to being forgotten.

Will they be willing? Who can be willing? In order to prevent all this from happening, they will make all science a heresy, and they will use all means to suppress human thoughts.

In short, they will be more bloody and more successful than what the heresy in the church did, because they have real extraordinary power.

"It's true." Claya felt that what Olivan said made sense. He could imagine how much influence a wizard could have in the secular world five centuries ago. Because, in addition to reading comics, she also read a lot of time travel novels.

"But, I think this rule is outdated now." Although Claya agreed with Olivan's statement, it does not mean that he does not have his own ideas.

When Claya just said this, she was still a little nervous. After all, she was questioning the rules set by the Supreme Master, but she found that Olivan was not angry, but just said to herself with an encouraging smile, "It doesn't matter, speak your opinion."

So, Claya, who was encouraged, boldly expressed her thoughts, "Times have changed. As you said just now, people in the world have developed very well. They are no longer as ignorant as before. The scientific power they master is not weaker than magic. Moreover, it is not only us who master extraordinary power, but also those mutant people. Do we still need to continue to hide it?"

Claya's meaning is very clear, that is, people in the world are no longer the Middle Ages, when they were fooled by a charlatan, they could sacrifice their lives by just a few words. Now they are enlightened and want to be willing to go out to be a mage, maybe they just think you are a magician, or treat you as a mutant, and it would be good if you don't discriminate against you. You still want to call the wind and rain, and you want them to worship you, let alone the door and the windows. It's really meaningless for us to hide it here.

"I'm glad you found these." Olivan said happily. "We call the outside world the world and the outside people the outside world, but are they really much worse than us? No, no. They are not much worse than us, you can find these very good."

"But... some of us are still too arrogant." Olivan said with some concern. "They still think that the world is foolish and the truth is in their own hands. But magic is the truth, isn't science? Hum, he is the same, but unfortunately they can't understand this truth."

"So, keep keeping this rule now," Claya said, "just avoid these arrogant guys and cause trouble for the world?"

"What trouble can they cause?" Ollifan said disdainfully. "The powerful part of those people is more willing to abide by this rule, because they believe that extraordinary people should have the reserve of extraordinary people. Contact with ordinary people is simply a reduction in their own value, and those who are not strong enough..."

"They don't have the ability to cause trouble." Claya said first.

"That's right." Olivan admitted, "If they go out, they probably don't even have the qualifications to surprise the world. There are still several organizations in the secular world who are more powerful, such as SHIELD. Although they have never had contact with them, they still have a good deal of handling extraordinary events. Those mutants are still very good at it. If those guys make trouble, they will probably be in prison."

"I prefer slice research," Claya said. "This kind of thing is quite common in comics."

"..." Olivan was speechless about Claya's brain circuit.

"Since that's the case, why do we still have to abide by this rule?" Claya asked in confusion. This rule seemed to be meaningless.

"In the past, people in the world were too ignorant, so we must avoid him, and now they..." Olivan paused, as if preparing to speak "They seem to be too smart."

Now the two of them have arrived on the terrace of the temple, where they can see the entire New York. They watch pedestrians on the ground shuttle back and forth on the road, but none of them can see the temple hidden in a different space, and they really feel like looking down at all.

"Do you know why this temple can float in the air?" Ollifan asked.

"Because the magic array inside the temple has always maintained the floating magic of the temple." Claya replied.

"How can the magic circle be maintained?" Olivan continued to ask.

"New York is one of the largest magic nodes on the earth, and the magic circle gets energy from it to maintain its operation." Claya then replied and said, "I knew these things a long time ago. If you want to test me, you have to change to some difficult questions."
