A mage's journey begins with a battle mage.

Chapter 326 Goddess of the Magic Network

What's it like to sit next to a goddess from the Magic Network?

The answer is strange.

Dreams reflect a person's true self.

If Jiang Shuzhou wasn't mistaken, this dream was very likely a combination of Jiang Shuzhou's and Mystra's dreams.

A dream orchestrated by Jiang Shuzhou, with Mystra as a participant.

Jiang Shuzhou really didn't know what Mystra was after, or why she wanted to enter his dream.

However, that's not the main point. The main point is that women's intelligence is really not commensurate with their achievements.

What is the core tenet of alchemy?

"Mystra, you speak."

"Yes……"

Mystra looked bewildered.

"Mistra, you can't even do such a simple question?"

"Jiang Shuzhou, you answer."

Jiang Shuzhou had no choice but to answer.

It's an equivalent exchange.

"very good."

Jiang Shuzhou observed Mystra. Logically speaking, this goddess of magic should have shown her talent from a young age. It's fine if she doesn't know other knowledge, but this is alchemical knowledge, and it's the most basic kind.

How could Mystra not know? According to the setting, this guy must be a top student, or at least have above-average grades. How could this be?

Dreams are a reflection of reality.

Mystra can be bad, but she can never be stupid.

I just don't know why, but this Mystra is so stupid.

Jiang Shuzhou decided to observe further, assess the outrageous character, and see what this "magic goddess" was up to.

Is this guy pretending to be stupid?

Could it be that Mystra is also conscious and is simply acting?

Jiang Shuzhou always felt that something was not quite right. Mistra didn't seem to be acting, but her performance was just like that.

Jiang Shuzhou stared at Mistra, his mind racing, deep in thought.

He's not in a hurry to break the deadlock right now, since he's not going there in his real body, he has plenty of time.

And isn't Mystra himself right here?

"Don't look at me, I'll get shy."

Mystra said weakly.

"vomit……"

This sentence disgusted Jiang Shuzhou.

Although the woman in front of him was beautiful, Jiang Shuzhou felt nauseous just thinking about what she had done.

"What's wrong? Are you alright?"

Mystra said with concern.

"It's nothing, I just thought of a disgusting person."

Jiang Shuzhou spoke the truth.

"Who is it?"

Mystra asked curiously.

"You don't need to worry about that, it's just disgusting."

Jiang Shuzhou looked her up and down and found that Mistra seemed perfectly normal.

This guy probably hasn't woken up yet, otherwise he wouldn't be so calm. If it were the goddess of magic, Mystra, she would probably be jumping around and calling him a blasphemer by now.

Jiang Shuzhou began to observe Mystra carefully. She had blond hair and blue eyes, a typical European appearance, and a gentle face, far less domineering than she would later become.

However, one thing caught Jiang Shuzhou's attention.

Mystra's eyes were bright and piercing, but they held a hint of dissatisfaction and scrutiny.

Jiang Shuzhou could understand her dissatisfaction with his performance, but what was she scrutinizing?

Is this a test to see if Jiang Shuzhou is qualified to be her deskmate?

Moreover, this scrutiny was not one tinged with emotion; rather, it was a scrutiny of a usable object, as if examining whether Jiang Shuzhou possessed any value.

What is she planning to use?

Jiang Shuzhou decided to hold back and see what this guy had to say.

"Jiang Shuzhou, I haven't done my homework, so I don't know if you..."

Mystra's meaning was clear: he wanted to borrow Jiang Shuzhou's work and copy it.

"casual."

Upon hearing this, Mistra immediately started searching through Jiang Shuzhou's notebook, unfolding it and beginning to work on it.

Then, as if some strange switch had been flipped, Mystra began frantically seeking Jiang Shuzhou's help, like a dodder vine.

"Shuzhou, I..."

"casual."

"Shuzhou, my group assignment..."

"casual."

"Book Boat..."

"casual."

Looking at Mystra in front of him, Jiang Shuzhou had some guesses.

However, it still needs some verification.

Jiang Shuzhou, however, knew exactly how to verify it.

In a quiet corner of the library.

A rustling sound rang out; it was Jiang Shuzhou flipping through the index of his collection of books.

Jiang Shuzhou went to the library for a simple reason.

Just as the textbook was the one Jiang Shuzhou remembered, the library contained many books, all of which were naturally about magical knowledge.

The books in the library may be the knowledge that Mystra memorized.

Jiang Shuzhou discovered this by chance, since the library was the place he spent the most time in.

These days, the library is a must-visit place for Jiang Shuzhou.

For no other reason than for this knowledge.

"Found it."

After searching through several indexes, Jiang Shuzhou finally found the most important book.

"The Magic Web" by Matt Krofts.

Unexpectedly, it makes sense.

Mystra was likely not the creator of the magic network.

This guy is ignorant and incompetent; he doesn't seem like the kind of person who could invent the magic network at all.

Furthermore, the magic net itself was originally intended to assist mages in casting spells, and its original intention was good. However, Mystra was inhuman and used this thing to restrict mages.

This clearly contradicts the original intention behind the invention of the Magic Network. Jiang Shuzhou finds it hard to believe that a selfish person like Mystra could create something as altruistic as the Magic Network.

Furthermore, the magic network has not changed any basic structure for countless years, which is practically impossible for an alchemist.

But now it seems that this is normal.

This thing was invented by other mages, but it was eventually stolen by the goddess of magic, Mystra.

Based on Jiang Shuzhou's understanding of Mystra, this is quite possible.

Normally, this kind of thing is impossible to confirm. After all, it's all just Jiang Shuzhou's speculation, even if the book exists.

Mystra has absolutely solved all the problems; in the real world, no one can know the truth.

But this place is different. This is a world of dreams. If you participate in building this world, you must abide by the corresponding rules, which even Mystra cannot completely avoid.

Verification is simple; just use the truth to provoke a reaction.

This will also bring Mystra to her senses, and if the facts are correct, the dream will collapse.

Of course, now is not the time. Jiang Shuzhou plans to finish reading "The Magic Net" first. It is a masterpiece by a genius. It would be a pity to leave before finishing it.

Regardless, the Magic Net has trapped one genius after another. Although it has now been cracked, it is still undoubtedly a groundbreaking invention.
