Chapter 25(2/3)

This time, the two magicians became confused and puzzled. The two looked at Ribo, and could not find any trace of falsehood or deception in Ribo's expression.

The two magicians frowned and thought for a while, and suddenly they looked at each other, obviously thinking of the answer to the question at the same time.

"Three taboos." Masquer Masque said softly, looking at his expression as if this was a very terrible thing.

"What are the three taboos?" It was Ribo's turn to be puzzled. His curiosity has never been as strong as it is now.

Masque Masque looked at his disciples seriously, and he said with a serious expression: "Ribo, are you sure you have discovered something left by the great magician Kaimidit, able to summon meteorites to attack the target? Are you sure it was not a lie created to deceive Vach and Nile're?"

"Yes, I'm sure." Ruibo said firmly.

"I believe this kid." The Great Magician Andilly nodded and said.

"Well, Rebe, listen to me. The great magician Kaimidit was a mysterious figure who was not well known even in his time. Most of his knowledge came from others, including the notes of His Majesty Frons V and the memoirs of Lupis III. "

"Kemitte had countless research successes throughout his life. Although these research results were eventually completely lost with his disappearance, their descriptions were preserved. It is precisely because of this that we know that Kaimitte once created gaseous living organisms, flying ships, huge stone statues and other great achievements that future generations could not achieve."

"Although the records cannot be covered in everything, all discoveries and creations with great influence will be mentioned in the notes of the fifth generation and the memoirs of the pope, Andilly and I have never heard of Kemidit as having the power to control the stars."

"Of course we will never think you are lying, and from the reaction of Nellerere, there is indeed such a thing. Then there is only one explanation. What you are talking about is the three taboos that have puzzled everyone who has read the records for all time."

Speaking of this, Masque Masque frowned. He needed to sort out his thoughts, because the world's speculations about the three taboos are so numerous and messy that it is not easy to figure out a clue.

After thinking for a while, he slowly said: "The 'three taboos' were mentioned in the notes of the fifth generation and the pope's memoirs. Among the many great achievements of Kaimidit's life, three of them are not known to the world. He even forbidden those who are most closely related to him to reveal his discoveries. Of course, some people also speculate that even His Majesty the fifth generation and the pope have no idea of ​​the details."

"I'm afraid that Kemidit would also realize how terrifying this power would be to be used as a weapon, so he must try his best to keep this secret." Magician Andilly said in a heavy mood.

"It is really hard to do as a magician know such an amazing code without studying it. I think it is better not to do it before we consider how to prevent this power from causing destruction to the world." said Masque Masque.

Magician Andilly nodded slowly, obviously this was also his idea.

"But I can't help but want to see, Ribo, can you take us there?" asked Masque.

"That magic device is preserved in the castle in the suburbs, but it is now the bedroom of the king and his queen." Ruibo said.

"It just so happens that we also need to discuss with His Majesty the Queen's countermeasures to deal with Vach and Nileere. You and His Majesty the Queen have done a good job, very secretively, and have not aroused the warnings of Vach and Nileere." Magister Masque said with a smile.

"Teacher, haven't you ever thought that those two gentlemen will no longer harm us?" Ruibo asked directly.

The two elderly old magicians stared at Ribo for a while, and sighed at the same time.

"Ribo, you can see that you have grown a lot. Now you are completely different from the one you when you first met in the Bart Forest. In fact, Andyly and I already knew about your current situation before coming here. Everything that happened to you can be described as a miracle."

Speaking of this, Magister Masque sighed again.

"Ribo, I want to tell you a story, are you willing?" the old man asked softly.

Ruibo nodded, and sat upright in order to appear solemn.

Masque Masque thought for a moment, letting the long-sealed meeting slowly come to his eyes, and reopening these memories was not a pleasant thing for him.

"More than fifty years ago, a genius appeared in the Magic Society. Many people think that he might become another great magician after Kai Midit. At the age of twenty-five, he became a magician. Among all the magicians who have this qualification, one of them is my teacher, so I was able to know him."

"At that time, he gave me a feeling that he was enterprising and had an unimaginable desire for knowledge, and many of his ideas completely broke the rules. With continuous success, he was praised by the world as a genius and the greatest genius."

"I felt deeply that he had been lost in the fame given to him by others and the strength and status he possessed. He was still so obedient and humble to others, without any arrogance or arrogance, but his humility could not hide his stubbornness, and his obedience was often to make others obey his advice."

Looking at the disciple peacefully, the magician Masque patted Ribo's head and said softly: "At that time, he was like you. You both were so similar in terms of expression and eyes. To be honest, when I saw you, I was really shocked. You reminded me of that person, and I guess Andilly felt this way."

The master next to him nodded and said, "I'm afraid Vach and Nile'ere also have this impression. After all, the most memorable thing about that person is his eyes, the same eyes as Ribo."

"How did that person happen to him?" Ribo asked. Although he had guessed that this was not a story of a beautiful ending, he still couldn't help asking.

"I left with my teacher soon after, and by the time we heard his name again, he was already known as the Blood Magician."

The old wizard said in a heavy tone: "No one knows the reason, because he almost killed the people in that place, and even the magicians sent by the Magic Society to investigate this matter were killed."

"The only time in history His Majesty issued a killing order to a magician, but the man suddenly disappeared. Just when everyone thought he would never hear his message again, he suddenly appeared at several places like a ghost, and so far no one knows what happened."

"But one thing is true. He has become a completely murderous devil. Whenever he appears somewhere, it will immediately cause bloody storms. He seems to be in a state of excitement. The people he killed have no connection from nobles to beggars."

"The Kingdom of Frons dispatched almost all its power, and even sent a young prince as the governor. The Magic Society did everything to eliminate the biggest stain of history. But the encirclement eventually turned into a disaster. For Prince Phillips, it was the first time he escaped from death in his life, and the only one who survived the magicians involved in that battle was Nellerere."

"The nightmare of the Blood Magician lasted for a full ten years. During that decade, everyone felt that life safety was difficult to be guaranteed. There would be tragedy every month, as if it was proving the existence of the Blood Magician."

"The Magic Society is helpless against the Blood Magician. He is undoubtedly the most powerful magician of his era. But the most frightening thing is that his whereabouts are extremely erratic. He can appear in several places at the same time and create a series of tragedies. No one knows how to do this so far."

"An accident finally ended the nightmare that had plagued everyone for many years. After attacking a church, the Blood Magician was infected with a deadly plague. A few months later, his body was found in the city's central square, and the disease took his life."

Speaking of this, Masque Masque fell silent, his expression was solemn and regretful.

"However, some people claim that the Blood Magician has transformed into a more evil undead, and the undead is still wandering in the city where he died in the last time." said the Magician Andilly next to him.

Ruibo glanced at the two old men and asked carefully: "Are you worried that I will become the second blood magician?"

"No, I never thought that there must be some special reason why the Blood Magician became like that. Being such an extreme character must meet many conditions. You may not necessarily follow the same path, but I still want to use this to warn you that believing in your own power will lead to fatal mistakes. The Blood Magician is just one of many examples. Now Vach and Nileerre have obviously made the same mistakes. I don't want to see you embark on the same wrong path for the team Vach and Nileerre."

Masque Masque once again patted Ribo's head and said, "You have a good teacher and should learn more from him. As far as I know, Hyde also believes in power, and he also believes that power can solve the same problem. However, Hyde has always been very cautious about resorting to force. Only when other methods are obviously ineffective will he use this last method. Because of this, although he has the most powerful killer in his hands, the killer's job is not much."

Rebow frowned and thought for a while, and finally he nodded. As Teacher Maske said, Mr. Hyde rarely resorted to force. Even against the cruel and arrogant Earl Robert, Mr. Hyde did not use Keller, the killer king.

"Maybe you should think about it carefully. You are not in a hurry to make a decision. I think Vach and Nileere are now firmly controlled by you. Even if they want to take action, they will inevitably have many concerns. The worst thing is that they both have their own thoughts, which is the most advantageous restraint." Magician Andilly said slowly.

"As I thought, what I am most interested in now is that I hope to see with my own eyes what one of the legendary three taboos looks like as soon as possible." Masque Masque said with a smile.

"I will go and ask the servants to prepare the carriage." Ruibo stood up and said.

"No, no, we have a more convenient way. You forget that we are all magicians, Andilly is good at controlling the wind, and I am an alchemist. Do you think we will come here in a carriage?" Masquer asked with a smile, stroking his beard.

He waved to the sky at the window of the aisle.

I saw a huge ball flying towards here. At first, it was just a small black dot, but it soon turned into a giant.

Ribo looked at everything in front of him in surprise.

Before this, he originally thought that the largest means of transportation built by humans were sailing ships sailing on the ocean. The largest ships were nearly thirty meters long, and the main mast was even higher than the five-story floor. The huge sail shop started out like a square.

But compared with the huge round sphere in front of you, that big ship is not worth mentioning at all.

Ruibo estimated that the diameter of the ball was at least fifty meters, as if it was made of gold foil. The surface of the ball was covered with a thin metal mesh, which was covered with various magic patterns and talismans.

A huge magic array was hung at the bottom of the ball, with golden light shining as if it was made of gold. There was a circle of railings around the magic array, obviously because I was afraid that people would fall from it.

The magic circle was probably no smaller than the lawn in front of the mansion. In the center, there was a circle of seats woven with metal wire. Suddenly, a green light shot into the window. This feeling was so familiar. Rebau seemed to have returned to the forest in Bart County again, as if he had returned to the first time he met his teacher.

Hit by the green light, Rebow felt his body floating and unknowingly flew out the window. When he saw the ground was far below, Rebow felt his heart almost stop beating.

When he felt a little calm, he was already standing in the center of the magic circle.

Ruibo looked at his feet and seemed to be standing on a mirror. The magic array was polished very brightly. The golden mirror was covered with red magic pattern, which looked beautiful.

"It's amazing." Suddenly, Teacher Mashik's kind voice came from beside him.

"Is this your masterpiece?" Ribo asked.

"No, this is also the work of the great magician Kaimidit. This is the famous flying ship. During the Furanshi V period, at least twenty such flying ships were built. Unfortunately, this one can be preserved after thousands of years." Masque sighed and said.

"Why?" Ruibo couldn't help asking, his curiosity couldn't help but surged up again.

"Most of them were destroyed by war. You can imagine how useful these flying ships were in war. Others were because they flew too far away to return. This kind of flying ship must be replenished with pure magic energy. Only Andilly's Institute can configure that kind of magic energy, which was originally the research institute used by Kaimidit to develop flying ships." Masquer Masque explained.

"Does no one know how to build such a flying ship now?" Ruibo couldn't help asking.

"Kemidit left behind real objects and the usage method has been passed down, but no one has discovered his experimental notes. Although countless magicians have tried to copy spacecraft, they all ended in failure." said Masque Masque: "Of course, it is not without gains. The research on the flying ship has left many interesting by-products."

Just as the two were talking vigorously, the Magician Andilly interrupted their conversation: "If you are ready to go, please sit down quickly."

"It's a little uneasy when starting up." Masquerade pulled Ribo and sat down.

The flying boat shook for a while and began to rise slowly.

"Do you have to be a little higher?" asked Magister Andilly.

"I think it's better to be taller, and the air above is fresher." said Masquera.

Ruibo felt his body sinking suddenly, as if there were dozens of pounds pressing on his shoulders. Suddenly, it seemed as if someone pulled his collar hard and tied him to the backrest of the seat.

"Oh - relax, my child, it's really a bit nervous when I sit here for the first time, but I feel very comfortable when I sit a few more times. You can't feel a little bumpy when sitting on it, and you won't shake like a ship sailing on the sea." Masque Masque smiled and said, "And it's very fast and can deliver you to your destination before you're completely bored of traveling."

"Yes, I believe it is indeed very fast, because I've seen that castle." Ribo said.

"It seems we should be ready. Are you planning to land the flying boat on the ground or fly directly?" asked the magician Andilly.

"I can jump right away." Ruibo smiled and said.

"Then you have to be careful not to be blown away by the wind. You can't feel it in the magic circle. In fact, the wind outside is extremely strong, and you can even blow away the roof of the house easily. If you jump from here, you may even land on the lawn in front of your house." Masque Marsque said with a smile.

"Then I'd better fly down." Ruibo shrugged.

...

The members of the Paladin guarding the three people who suddenly fell from the sky with a green light were indeed quite nervous. Fortunately, someone soon noticed that one of them was the little heir of Serthburg.

Immediately someone ran to the castle to report to the palace guards on duty.

The palace guards dare not be negligent, and such matters must be decided by His Majesty the Queen himself.

Because of this, when Ruibo landed steadily on the ground, a loud military horn came from the castle. A team of palace guards walked out of the castle wearing silver hair curls, a sky blue tight uniform, and a slanted belt.

Walking in the middle of the team was the palace chief Marquis Miluowan.

"Master Masque, Master Andilly, welcome the two of you. I'm sorry that I couldn't have time to lay the red carpet for you in a hurry. His Majesty was waiting for you inside. He hoped to send his most sincere greetings to you in person."

The court chief said humbly, and while speaking, he bowed respectfully to the two magicians.
