051 Oliver's Transformation
Master Flinda is not that easy to see.
In the end, Gene went to find his only friend Blanche.
He knew that among the hundreds or thousands of magic apprentices in this towering magic tower, the most knowledgeable human beings besides Flinda, probably were not those high-level magicians who were about to "graduate"! They were not genius apprentices like Erin! And it was probably this inconspicuous trainee magician girl.
Her origin determined that there was no collection of books that she could not get, and her efforts did not waste the former.
Because he didn't know how to hide the strange glory mark on his forehead, Gene covered his head all the way, stared at others' strange gazes, and climbed up the thirty-three levels of the stairs.
In Blanche's room.
"God, you're..." The gray-haired girl could see something deeper at a glance. She put down the book in surprise and looked at it carefully. "This is the mark of light! But it is obviously not the mark of light... at least not the mark of ordinary mark of archer..."
"Hey, don't scare me." Gene whispered nervously, "Is it a good thing or a bad thing?"
"Let's talk about your feelings first?" Blanche seemed a little unsure, "How did this mark appear and what happened to you?"
So Gene honestly told the whole story of his escaping from the mouth of a tree viper.
"You go find me a staff?" Unexpectedly, the point Blanche extracted from it seemed a bit... off topic.
The magic girl stared at Gene with gray eyes for a while, until the latter showed embarrassment, she curled a little curve and chuckled: "Actually it's very obvious that you awaken your mental power! Only the mental power of the archer has the kind of detection effect you described as 'seeing with your own eyes'."
"I have had mental power for a long time. Lord Eddie has always said that I have good mental power talent and can even penetrate the white cocoon..."
"No, it's not the same thing... Well, it can be understood as the relationship between iron-containing ore sand and real iron tools. Your past mental power was also mental power, but it was useless if you didn't really condense it, but now it's different... You awaken your true mental power, the kind that can be used to fight! And you also condensed the mark of light by yourself!"
"So it's a good thing?" Gene said in surprise.
"At least it means that your mental talent is high enough." Blanche shrugged, "Natural awakening itself is synonymous with good talent. Just like I awakened my magic power without the help of the magician branch hall... My magic talent rating is close to full level! So your mental talent is obviously also very good, almost the best one in the continent."
"But I have never seen this ball of light mark on your forehead, and I don't know what it means... I have not read many books about archers. I only know that people with excellent talents in the four major professions may have some special mark forms... Special marks often have unique abilities and their future potential is much greater than ordinary adventurers! This is more enviable than natural awakening, and even I don't have special marks..."
"As for where your special mark is special, when the Palace of Gelan comes down, he can solve your doubts. His Highness Gelan's attainment in archers is the pinnacle of the entire continent. He must know what mark this is, and he will definitely tell you how to best exert its power!"
"So, lucky Gene, you just need to wait..."
"A special mark?" Gene's eyes were extremely shining, and he waved his fist hard at the air.
Blanche rolled her eyes lightly.
—————
When Gene returned to his floor, he saw Erin at the other end of the circular corridor.
During this period, the relationship between Gene and Erin has not changed much. It just maintains a normal distance, greets you when meeting and occasionally chats, but that's all.
Erin was as enthusiastic to Gene as ever... This was not a special treatment. The talented girl's personality was as enthusiastic and cheerful as her flame-like wave red hair! Not only to Gene, but also to Oliver, and even to the apprentices living in the middle of the Mage Tower, they were all the same enthusiasm!
This also led to her very popular relationship.
But today, Erin saw the shiny mark on Gene's forehead from afar, and was immediately surprised and couldn't stop, and ran around the corridor like a gust of wind.
"Jen? This is on top of your head...this is..."
"No, special mark? Have you awakened the special mark of the archer?"
"Oh my God, I didn't expect your talent to be so great... You are such an amazing boy!"
"Let me take a closer look. I have never seen the legendary special mark..." She took Gene's hand and looked left and right, marveling. The series of praises made Gene's face turn red quickly.
But at this time, a person who should not have appeared appeared - Oliver walked up the stairs.
Of course, this is not the first time that a young man magician suddenly appeared while they were chatting. Gene sometimes even wondered if Oliver had cast some invisible magic on him. Why would he always appear quickly every time he talked to Erin alone?
The innocent admiring smile of the red-haired magician girl quickly caught Oliver's eyes, especially when she saw clearly that she was holding Gene's hand intimately and her head was almost about to reach the red-haired boy's forehead, Oliver was furious!
Dingdeng!
He jumped onto the last few steps halfway, walked quickly towards this side, ready to speak.
However, the red-haired magic girl seemed to be foresighted and did not give him a chance to speak. Instead, she pulled Gene and turned into her room. Before the door "bang" closed, Oliver vaguely heard Erin mentioning the "special mark" and invited Gene to discuss something in her room.
[Special mark?]
Oliver was stunned for a moment, and then he vaguely remembered that he seemed to have seen a shiny mark on Gene's forehead, and it seemed that it was not a normal archer mark?!
As the eldest son of the Parton family, Oliver has a family background. Coincidentally, his grandfather, the former kingdom general, is such an adventurer warrior who has awakened the special mark! Therefore, when it comes to special marks, Oliver actually knows more than Erin and Blanche combined.
He knows more clearly what this means!
The young mage's expression became shady and he quickly turned around and left.
About an hour later, Erin's door opened, and the red-haired girl wearing a magic robe with silver cuffs relaxed Gene very politely... and Erin was no longer as nervous as she was just pulled into the door. Instead, she seemed to be much familiar with Erin. She even joked before leaving!
It was not until Erin closed the door and Gene turned his head and suddenly saw Oliver with a serious expression.
The latter stared at him expressionlessly.
Gene became nervous instantly...
Oliver is a real intermediate magician. In theory, his strength is on the same level as Eddie and Orwell, and he is no match for Oliver at all! These days, Oliver has often used various methods to tease or tease him, which has made poor Gene feel like a conditioned fear of this young man.
As soon as he saw the other party's serious expression, Gene's heart would rise up. Not moving downstairs was just a stubbornness in his heart, but he should be afraid.
Unexpectedly, this time, Oliver did not teach Gene a lesson again.
He suddenly laughed... the angular face seemed not suitable for carrying this expression, and the smile squeezed out was ugly, but his tone of speaking was very sincere:
"Gen, I was bad before, but I think it's not too late to correct the error now...I, Oliver Parton, apologize to you for the rudeness before!"
"Yes, you can think of me as a snob. I saw your special mark and knew that you were destined to be a super strong man in the future. Your horizons will be extremely broad. Let's let those unpleasant little things disappear? Real big people won't care. Now, I am willing to help you as much as possible and provide you with the knowledge about the special mark you are eager to know, just make up for what I did before."
Chapter completed!
