Chapter 86 Choosing a New Mentor
After everyone signed a confidentiality agreement written in the language of the demons of purgatory, Loren left with the newly acquired ore.

He wasn't sure how this place would ultimately develop after this, or whether Johnny Whitesha would leave because of it.

Human hearts are unpredictable, and the world is full of uncertainties.

The world is changing at a rate far beyond what a little red dragon like him could imagine.

Even the gods in the heavens can suddenly lose contact, and a vast federation encompassing the entire world can be established. What else in this world is not going to happen?

The only thing he can do is to make the most of the resources he has and use them wisely in order to improve himself.

During his time in Greenleaf City, Loren has completed the learning of several level 5 and 6 spells and mastered many common spell configurations.

Although we are still far from reaching the 10,000 nodes required for level 7, at least we've made progress.

If you can see the road ahead, then the road ahead is already open to you. Even if the journey is long and difficult, at least there is a way to go.

"I should be able to cast a level 6 composite spell with more than 6,000 nodes now."

"However, we can only use the dragon magic spells from the Dragon Legacy."

"After all, these spells don't cost money; all you need to do is praise the ancestor for being awesome."

On the way back, Loren flew while carrying the Tier 1 Magic Crystal Armor, lost in thought.

Although the Federation has established a universal spell library, uploading and downloading spell models into it requires payment.

"Should I buy another online course from a dragon mage just to study?"

For once, Loren was conflicted about his studies.

His hesitation wasn't because he was reluctant to part with the money.

The main reason is that those dragon-type mages... are mostly reincarnations of mages.

Most of the bodies they were reborn into were not real dragons, but rather dragon beasts that were born without a true name because their dragon inheritance failed and they were sold off by the Dragon Mother.

In the past, these dragon beasts would be banished by the mother dragons and left to fend for themselves outside the dragon's nest.

But times have changed.

Dragons are still not considered intelligent beings at birth, but the mother dragons no longer abandon them.

They are now valuable assets of the mother dragon.

Two paths often await them.

One path is to continuously enlighten one's mind, to regenerate a wise consciousness within the body.

Although they lack lineage and cannot be born as noble and powerful as dragons, with unlimited potential, the bodies of dragons are always much stronger than those of normal creatures.

They are of very high quality cattle and horses, and after hundreds of years of training, their wisdom is no different from that of ordinary people.

Furthermore, they can receive federal disability benefits.

The money is transferred to the guardian, who is also the holder of the dragon beast.

Another option is to be sold to mages who need to reincarnate.

The mage will erase his initial consciousness and then place his body in a special nutrient solution to connect and cultivate it, continuously nurturing and growing it.

It was as if its consciousness had not yet been born, and it was still in the egg.

This nurturing process will continue until the mages transfer their consciousness into that body through special means.

How exactly it was done is a trade secret.

The only known fact is that true dragons, which already possess intelligence, cannot be used as reincarnation material under this system.

Not only is it not allowed, it is also illegal, extremely illegal.

Although these reincarnated mage dragons do not have any dragon heritage, they can learn dragon language magic just like normal true dragons.

The mages capable of such transfers are typically quite powerful and wealthy. Combined with their already high spell levels, this means that the online learning system for dragon language magic used by true dragons is almost entirely dominated by these mages.

"Why should I, a legitimate person, go to listen to these imposters giving lectures...?"

Loren thought to himself.

In the past, he always selectively bought from the Federation's general magic library.

Then, through the knowledge in the Dragon Legacy and the guidance of online teachers, one can quickly learn spells and then go back to learn the dragon language magic in memory, achieving the effect of learning by analogy.

This is a key reason why he made rapid progress with minimal expenditure.

But as his mage level increased, the price of spells from the universal library became increasingly expensive!

High-level spells are increasingly expensive, and there are time limits on learning them after purchase!

Who can afford this expense!
In situations like these, inheriting high-level spells from memories that cost no money seems to be the only viable option.

"Are you going to listen to lectures given by mages who are reincarnated dragons with the bodies of dragon beasts and the souls of mages?"

Loren was conflicted.

The real dragons are completely inferior to these imposters when it comes to giving lectures.

When it comes to casting spells, dragons mostly rely on their own natural talents and aptitudes.

Bottleneck? Stuck? Unstable spellcasting?

Why don't you go back to your room and take a nap? Or, if that doesn't work, eat something and try to improve your skills?

Or, just go with your instincts for a moment?

What if it happens.

This was the understanding that most dragons had of their own magic in the past.

Anyway, I was born with this ability, the power of my bloodline, do you understand, warlock?
We don't usually rely on intelligence to cast spells!

But these beings, who were first high-level mages and then dragons, were different.

They come with the magical systems of humans or other species to learn dragon magic in reverse.

Their understanding of the dragon language system is more systematic, precise, and insightful.

More, more standard.

Although they have also said that for the dragon language magic system, the almost instinctive casting method of true dragons is the core power of the dragon language magic system.

All abilities in the world have their own sources, and the strength of these sources determines the level of the system.

Dragon magic originates from the original dragon god.

In the most ancient and primitive times, before concepts like node magic and spell configurations were even born, dragons used magic as naturally as breathing.

Therefore, when mages use modern model standards to describe this ancient inherited magic, they can be precise and accurate, and can talk fluently about the flaws in the configuration...

However, in battles involving similar spells, they often lose to true dragons who cast spells entirely based on talent and intuition.

Of course, this is a pure clash of spells of the same type, excluding super magic skills and spell feats. If all these factors are taken into account, the outcome of the battle is hard to predict.

"I feel that I should still buy it, as it can avoid a lot of pitfalls and problems. However, I can't listen to everything I hear. When it comes to actually casting the spell, I still have to follow my instincts."

Loren thought to himself that this was exactly how it felt when he cast dragon-language spells.

He often relied on intuition to get through places that seemed out of place in the standard model.

However, the results of the spells were all quite good, with a significant increase in power.

With this in mind, Loren returned to the demiplane, opened the magic crystal terminal, and began selecting a new mentor.
