Chapter 129 Experimental Accident

The explosion of "Boom!" was the most obvious sound that broke the morning silence of the Earl's Mansion.

A curl of green smoke came from the tower where Thain was.

Faced with the sudden explosion and thick flames and smoke, the Earl's Mansion was in chaos.

Groups of maids and attendants carried water and shuttled outside the tower.

Although there was some confusion, everyone seemed to be working together in a coordinated manner.

After all, it wasn't the first time this happened.

This is the third explosion this month.

Although magicians explore the mysteries of truth in the laboratory and use this to promote themselves.

But this process is not without danger.

It's not as simple as outsiders think.

In addition to the exploration of the mysteries of truth, it is inherently accompanied by various difficulties and accidents.

Sometimes going astray will be accompanied by certain risks and crises.

Especially for a fledgling senior apprentice like Thain, there is no formal magician with a profound background to teach him. He can only explore the mysteries of magic by himself, even if there are many magic books left by Moses to provide guidance.

But sometimes the content described in books is still very different from the actual operation.

Buckets of clean water were sent to Thain's laboratory.

The flames generated by the fire element magic matrix have been extinguished, including the flames in the room.

The maids and attendants who went in and out of the laboratory and put out the fire carefully did not disturb Thain in front of the experimental table at all.

Looking at the dark experimental bench in front of him, Thain was still standing there with his head bowed in thought like a wooden man.

Thain was thinking about which step went wrong during the experiment just now.

His latest research is on advanced magic - the spell construction of the Eye of the Sun.

Among the many magic books left to Thain by his mentor Moses, there are many advanced magics involved.

Among them, Eye of the Sun is undoubtedly one of the top three powerful spells among these advanced magics.

If you want to learn and master a spell, the first thing you need to do is understand the principle of the spell and the core secrets used.

In this way, only after thoroughly understanding the spell, can you build a relevant spell model in your own spiritual consciousness.

The research difficulty of the Eye of the Sun is more than twice that of the Advanced Magic Flame Knife.

Likewise, its power is almost three times that of the Flame Knife.

This is a top-notch advanced magic. As long as you master it, until Thane is promoted to an official magician, the Eye of the Sun will be enough.

One of the most powerful spells at his disposal.

However, according to his current learning situation and research progress, he may not be able to master this advanced magic in another half a year.

Think about how long it took Thane to learn to master the flame knife?

It’s only a month before and after!

"There is a huge gap between having a mentor to teach you and exploring magic elements on your own.

"Of course, the reason why I was able to master the advanced magic of Flame Knife so quickly was because I mastered its pre-magic Fire Chain Knife in advance during the intermediate apprenticeship stage."

"Should I put the research progress on the Eye of the Sun aside for a while? I can work on alchemy first."

"No, if I give up so easily, how can I possibly explore the end of my path to the elements?"

"This problem must be overcome, even if it takes much longer time and energy than expected!"

After thinking over and over again to find out where the problem might go, Thain walked to the test bed again.

One by one, medium and low-level fire element crystals were embedded in various spell nodes on the experimental platform in front of him.

The maids who noticed Thain's movements hurriedly cheered and ran out of Thain's laboratory, as if there was some savage beast here.

Including those knights and attendants with thicker lines, their faces darkened at this time.

Unable to understand the mysteries of magic elements, they had no idea what the explosion just now was about.

However, the noise and destructive power caused by the explosion still made these knight boys, who were generally young, a little scared.

The surrounding laboratory returned to silence again, and Thain continued his experiments.

Magicians are generally solitary seekers of truth.

In this deserted laboratory, Thain continued his research on fire element magic.

…

At the end of the second month after Thain came to the Earl's Castle, Earl Grant forcibly called Thain out, who had been bored in the laboratory for several days.

Why do you say "forcibly"?

Because the count called him several times at first, but received no response.

Especially after learning from the maid serving Thain that Thain had not come out of the laboratory for three days and had not eaten any food, the Earl broke into the room directly.

As a result of Earl Grant's break-in, that day, the Earl's Castle exploded for the fourth time this month!

It was a huge explosion with shocking movement. More than 40% of the tower where Thain lived was wiped out.

Thanks to the fact that there were more than three floors of the tower at that time, except for Thane in the laboratory and those who had just climbed up

There were no other maid servants except Earl Grant who went there.

Otherwise, we don’t know how many non-combat casualties this explosion will cause.

Thain was protected by an earth elemental shield. Apart from being knocked unconscious by the explosion, he did not suffer any injuries.

Earl Grant was unlucky enough to see blood.

Even with his tyrannical physique as a quasi-knight, facing an experimental accident of this magnitude, his arm was inevitably injured.

Of course, from here we can also see the tyranny of the advanced magic that Thain is studying - the Eye of the Sun.

The tower was bombed, and Thain may have to find another place to live in the near future.

The place chosen for him by the Earl of Grant was behind the Earl's castle.

There was originally a huge park garden, and the count planned to demolish part of it and then build a new tower for Sein.

The beautiful environment is only one aspect. More importantly, it is relatively quiet there and there are fewer maids and servants coming and going. Even if another experimental accident occurs, there is no need to worry about accidentally injuring other people in the Earl's Mansion.

During the dinner, Earl Grant took the main seat, and Thain took the second seat to his right.

Sauron sat on the second seat to the Earl's left, and Lady Tia sat on the other side of Sauron.

Dinner at the Earl's Palace does not always have to be a grand banquet.

Some nobles do like to do this, but Earl Grant is not such a person.

Except for some special festivals and extremely happy situations, there will be feasts.

During a normal lunch or dinner, sometimes the count and his family would sit together and simply eat more than 20 dishes, or open a few bottles of wine.

What was slightly different today was that the count's right hand was covered with a white bandage, which made the atmosphere of the dinner a little strange.

Before dinner, the second young master Zoro first glanced at his father quietly, and then at his eldest brother sitting opposite him.

Almost two months have passed, and Sauron's sense of Thane has also undergone some subtle changes.

If we say that two months ago, there was naked jealousy and complaint about Thain's appearance.

Two months later today, Sauron actually felt a sense of awe and fear towards Thane that he was unwilling to admit.

Sauron has seen the explosions that have occurred frequently in the Earl's Castle this month.

It was also the first time for him to see that his invincible father could actually be injured?

And all of this was caused by Thane in front of him. No wonder Sauron felt a little in awe of him.
