125. Incentives of the Institute

My eyes widened, and I asked the Yerkes Scholar, "Do you know what Lord Bruce is looking for me?"

Yerkes Scholar and Master Bruce in the Academy have been close friends for many years, and it is precisely because of Lord Bruce's recommendation that Yerkes Scholar was able to leave the Eltown War Magic Academy and come to DìDū alone, and after DìDū was silent for three years, he announced the three primary magic pattern constructs to the DìDū wizarding world, which caused a sensation in DìDū.

He took a sip of black tea, then raised his head and said to me, "Well, it's probably about the announcement of the new rune board drawings to the public. ”

I asked, somewhat puzzled, "This ...... Didn't we already announce it?"

"Mistress Bruce probably wants to compensate you in the name of the Academy of Magic. The Yerkes scholar replied.

It was snowing outside, and it was falling from the gray sky, and the snowflakes like goose feathers were constantly swirling in the sky, and they hit the glass windows with a whirl, and they piled up on the panes, and it looked a little cold outside, and a layer of frost hung on the glass windows.

I leaned forward and lowered my voice to the Yerkes scholar, "Didn't you tell him that even if we publicly released the new rune board blueprints, it wouldn't actually harm our interests?"

The release of the new rune blueprints may seem like sacrificing the interests of me and the Yerkis scholars, but in fact, we are the biggest beneficiaries.

Even if the inscriptionists of the Grimm Empire have obtained some benefits in vain, everyone knows the production process of the metal magic pattern rune plate, but even if they know the production method, we have a huge advantage in the production cost, and by promoting the metal magic pattern rune plate, we can also sell the magic pattern drawings of the metal plate, and we can also provide a large amount of red copper solution to the magic market in the future.

In this matter, the interests of the Babington family have probably been greatly affected, and these new magic rune plates will impact the market of the Babington family's primary blank rune plates to a certain extent.

The Yerkes scholar spread out his hands, indicating that he had spoken.

He said to me, "I did, but he felt that this was a big event that could move the history of magic in the Grimm Empire forward, and for whatever reason, the Dì Dū Academy of Magic should also give some solace." ”

Hearing this from the Yerkes scholar, I felt a warm feeling in my heart, and hurriedly ate the honey-glazed steak from my plate, wiped the grease from the corner of my mouth, and said, "Uh! Well, to be honest, I've been asking Master Bruce for help lately." ”

I said to Ying Li, "You can wait for me here at the institute for a while, if you are bored, you can go to the trading hall below, or you can go to the magic potions department to see the trial of the new potions, and then we will go back to the Royal Academy of Magic together." ”

Ying Li nodded obediently and said to me, "I'll wait for you in the trading hall on the first floor later, I just want to go to the Potions Shop to find out about the Potions market." ”

Although Ying Li majored in identifying magical herbs, she also knew the most basic methods of preparing magical herbs, and for a potions master, it was natural that she needed to know the situation of potions in the magic market at all times.

I was in a hurry to see Vice Dean Bruce, so I left the academy cafeteria with the Yerkes scholars first, and Ying Li and Helena and Becky were in no hurry, just here while enjoying the snow outside, while eating slowly, and they also added a dessert.

Two weeks later, the final test of the Royal Academy of Magic will be ushered in, and after the exam, there will be a two-month winter vacation, and I will also take this opportunity to go to the wild swamp of Strange Rock City to find the ancient altar, at the beginning, Vice Dean Bruce once told me that if you want to awaken the broken soul in the heart of Sister Guoguo's ice elemental body, you need three conditions: the soul horn that can awaken the sleeping soul, the soul gem that carries the broken soul, and the ancient altar needed to hold the awakening ceremony, only when these three conditions are ready, can you try to awaken Sister Guoguo's soul。

Justes has a soul horn in his hand, and I auctioned a soul gem from the auction house, as long as I find the Ancient Altar, the three conditions for awakening Sister Guoguo will be met, but how to hold this awakening ceremony, I still need the help of Lord Bruce, he promised me that if I can meet these three conditions, he will help me wake up Sister Guoguo.

So before I go to Strange Rock City, I still want to meet Vice Dean Bruce once and make an appointment with him in advance.

Unexpectedly, before I could go to him, he actually took the initiative to find me.

As the vice president of the Dì Dū Magic Academy, Lord Bruce manages most of the daily work of the Institute, and he is also the elder of the House of Representatives of the Dì Dū Magic Guild, and his work is also very busy.

Scholar Yerkes and I sat down on the benches in the lounge area, and the people waiting at the door of Master Bruce looked strangers, probably not magicians from the Institute.

Before the Yerkis scholars and I arrived, these people sat there talking in low voices.

Yerkis scholars usually wear gray magic robes on the research side, and at this time there is a hood on the top of their heads to cover their faces, and the magic assistant of Lord Bruce recognized us at a glance and motioned for us to wait here for a while, and he quietly turned and walked into the office.

At this time, the people waiting at the door of Master Bruce continued to talk in a low voice:

"I've heard that the Dì Dū Magic Research Institute has long had metal smelting technology, and this time I want to buy the recipe for the red copper solution from the research institute. A middle-aged nobleman sitting on the far left side of the bench opposite said in a low voice.

There was a magician sitting next to him, but obviously this magician did not have the badge of the Dì Dū Research Institute on his chest, so he should not be an insider of the Research Institute, so he asked, "What does the Alchemy Guild say?"

The middle-aged nobleman also sighed lightly before saying: "The Alchemy Guild has been concentrating on the research of 'metal transformation' in recent years, and my friend over there said that this metal solution formula does not belong to the Alchemy Guild, so I came to the research institute to try my luck." ”

All around them, they were listening to the conversation between the middle-aged nobleman and the magician, and the middle-aged nobleman obviously didn't feel that these words needed to be kept secret or anything.

The magician heard the middle-aged nobleman talk about metal transformation, and after sneering twice, he said: "The metal transformation of the Alchemy Guild? Hehe! Is it the undead water of eight hundred magic crystals? ”

After hearing the magician's complaint, the two magicians on the other side were obviously a little unhappy, and one of them immediately retorted: "No one forced your excellency to buy it, this kind of transaction is a voluntary act." ”

It goes without saying that these two magicians are from the Alchemy Guild, and when they heard someone mocking the Alchemy Guild, they immediately fought back.

The magician sitting opposite also said without showing weakness at this time: "It's a pity that the Magic Guild doesn't have the courage to let the Alchemy Guild publish the undead water recipe for free, haha." ”

The two magicians from the Alchemy Guild were so angry that smoke rose above their heads, and said, "You ...... It's so beautiful to think about!"

There are many noble lords in DìDū who will fund or recruit some magicians for their own use, this middle-aged nobleman and magician should probably have this relationship, and the two magicians on the opposite side should be from the Alchemy Guild, between three words, these two groups of people are like needles to each other, in fact, I still want to know about the transformation formula of 'undead water', to put it simply, it is to transform the essence of the undead into the essence of water through magic rituals.

The Water Essence is a high-level magic material, and only high-level water elemental creatures can give birth to the Water Element, such as the Water Contract partner of the Sean Scholar, but this water element is difficult to hunt.

As for the undead essence, it is the essence that is bred in the soul fire of the undead clan, but this kind of undead essence is very rare in ordinary skeletons and zombies, at least it must be a ghost or vampire to precipitate the undead essence crystal, although it is not easy to obtain, but the undead essence is far easier to obtain than the water element essence, especially now that the Pai Plateau is invaded by the army of the undead, the strong people of the orc tribe will inevitably obtain some undead essence.

Hearing them talk about 'undead water', I suddenly realized that there was actually a huge business opportunity in front of me, taking advantage of the war between the orc tribe and the army of the undead, I should ask Marven to send someone to buy a batch of undead essence from the orc tribe, no, at least understand the market of Dì Dū magic first......

As I was considering how to proceed with this, I heard Master Bruce's magical assistant come out of the room, walk up to me and the Jerkis Scholar, and say, "Jerkis Scholar, Giga Wizard, please come with me. ”

Hearing the magic assistant say this, the air at the door of the office seemed to freeze instantly, and everyone closed their mouths because they were suffocating.

“......”

When we were about to walk into Lord Bruce's office, the group resumed chatting, and the middle-aged nobleman just now sighed again and again: "It's actually a Yerkes scholar, hey! Why didn't I see it just now, in the morning, I also participated in the public press conference of the new rune plate drawings in front of the Inscription Divisions Guild Building, why didn't I see it just now!"

The magician sitting next to him persuaded him very rationally: "Forget it, everyone has walked in, what are you still sighing there, think about how to ......"

......

Vice Dean Bruce got up to see off a group of guests, and Scholar Yerkes and I waited at the square table of the magical assistant, and when Vice Dean Bruce turned to return, he smiled and said to me kindly, "I have seen the design of your new magic rune board, and it is very cleverly designed. ”

As he spoke, he took my shoulders and walked into the office, Vice Dean Bruce was a burly man, and he was very dignified in his wide magic robes, and I was about to talk about this matter and push it to the Yerkis scholars, but he interrupted me directly, " Don't tell me that it was designed by Yerkes, I know Yarkis better than you, I have been a close friend with him for more than 20 years, although he has countless wonderful ideas in the primary magic pattern, but he is a very traditional magician, he said that the magic laws that he adheres to will never try this new magic pattern, but the magic world of the Grimm Empire should have fresh blood full of new ideas and vitality like you. ”

I looked at the Yerkes Scholar, and the Yerkes scholar told me with his eyes that he hadn't said this to Lord Bruce.

Master Bruce led us into the meeting area, where we sat down around a round table and the assistant brought us bitter tea with the flavor of condensation.

Master Bruce waved his hand and said, "Since the magic giant crossbow bolts have shown great effect in the plane war, the magic union has sent a letter to the research institute, saying that I will come forward to persuade you to publish the design drawings of the new magic pattern, at first I ignored them, and then with the successive victories of the wars of Hiero, Lochi, and Angelaldo, the new magic pattern has also realized that the new magic pattern has shown great power on the battlefield, so it has been urging me." ”

I'm a little depressed, and no matter what I do, the Magic Guild side seems to want to intervene.

Master Bruce continued to say to me: "The Fishskin Hood incident before, the Magic Guild group did a bit too much, so I also pressed this matter again and again, and then I communicated with Yerkis in private, and he said to discuss it with you, but I didn't expect you to agree so easily." ”

The reason why I agreed, in fact, is to make the market of metal magic pattern rune board bigger, so that more people can accept this new style of rune board.

Lord Bruce said with emotion: "In the past two years, the new magic pattern has been attacking the city and grabbing the land in the magic market, and it is very savage to open up a world in Dì Dū, which shows that the new magic rune board is stronger than the traditional rune board, this time you can release the drawings of the new magic rune board publicly, this is also promoting the development of the magic rune board of the Green Empire, in view of the contributions you and Yerkes have made to the new magic rune board, the Dì Dū Magic Research Institute feels that it will give you some rewards." ”

He looked at the Yerkes scholar first, then at me, and said, "So I'm going to ask for your opinion to see what kind of rewards you need, epic magic staff, high-grade magic materials, a magic crystal, a forbidden magic book, a territory in a certain plane, or something else, you can bring it up, if you can meet it, the research institute will not be too stingy." ”

Hearing Lord Bruce say that the research institute would give us a certain reward, I glanced at the Yerkes scholar, and the Yerkes scholar was not polite, and took the lead in saying, "If there is a suitable one, I would like a magic book on the magic pattern circle." ”

"What about you, Giga?" asked Mistress Bruce with a smile on my face.
