Chapter XVIII

Chongyang followed the flow of people into the Magic Association, and did not immediately go to Elder Richard, but sorted out the thoughts in his head one last time.

First of all, how do you resist the wrath of Prisland?

The first magic academy of the empire, which has a history of thousands of years, once it gets serious, the energy it exerts is definitely not under the royal family. The Empire's best elites, the most powerful mages, and the highest figures are all inextricably linked to Prisland.

A fifth-level fire mage confronts it, and that is looking for death.

However, there are a few flaws in between.

Acting Dean Salson @ Sood ...... Why was this guy who had just risen to the Holy Spirit level and was resented by the students since his mentor days been able to succeed him as the head of the academy after the respected legendary mage Cranred?

To say that Sarson's prestige is after Cranred's is utterly ridiculous. So, the conclusion is simple, this guy who claims to be "the youngest Holy Spirit mage in the academy" is nothing more than a puppet. Behind him, there are one or more people who control the academy.

Nominally the acting dean, but in fact, his life or death does not matter. The person who was put in this position for the first time after Cranred was not so much lucky as unlucky, because he could easily become a benchmark and bear the wrath of the upper echelons of the hospital who supported Lord Cranred.

Even if he didn't die under the scroll of Chongyang, sooner or later he would end up with a sad end.

This kind of cannon fodder-level figure can't represent Presland.

Secondly, within Prisland, now is the time of fierce contradictions, and the forces on Cranred's side will never be willing to sink like this, and it will be their turn to attack the authority of the current ruler. This part of the people is an ally that Chongyang can strive for.

......

Chongyang rubbed his temples, thinking about things at this level was really tiring.

He wasn't fit for this kind of thing, but he had to do it.

can't bear the anger, if he is alone, he can go to the end of the world incognito and go to other countries. However, there is still Burning Sun City behind him, as well as Burning Sun, Luo Yang, father, mother, and little sister Chenyang......

No one can touch my loved ones until they step on my corpse!

Chongyang made up his mind, his eyes were as sharp as knives, and he tightened his black robe to meet Elder Richard.

The Mage's Tower, the Elder's Chamber.

"You say...... What did you do?" said Elder Richard's eyes widened, and a pair of thick eyebrows were lined up in a look of incredulity.

He couldn't believe what Chongyang had just said. It seems that it was the calm and calm black-haired young man in front of him who used a spirit-level scroll to kill the head of the Presland Academy?

"It's true, it happened less than an hour ago. Chongyang said calmly, "Time is running out now, Elder Richard, I must ask you to do two things. โ€

"There's no way I'm ......going to poke out such a big basket," Elder Richard waved his hand a little weakly.

"I know, I didn't mean to bring the black cauldron to the Howason family. Chongyang said, "I asked the elders to do two things, the first is to try to help me contact the legendary magician Cranred @Alpha! The second is to help me release a message in the circle of the big people in the imperial capital, saying that whoever is willing to come forward to protect me before this Prisland's wrath will ask my master to give me a reciprocal reward!"

He clung to the hem of his robe. These are two things that will affect his future fate.

Elder Richard was stunned for a moment, and slowly frowned, his thick eyebrows squeezed into a ball between the center of his eyebrows.

"Lord Cranred...... I may not be able to get in touch. He said slowly, "Legendary magicians have a circle of legendary magicians, and although I am an elder of the Magic Association, I am only at the level of the Holy Spirit after all. โ€

Chongyang's heart sank.

If Crambleder can't be contacted, how can he get the support he has left in the academy?

"Please do your best, please, I will remember your kindness. โ€

"It's already in-laws, why are you talking too much about people? But this time, you do owe me a lot. Elder Richard smiled slightly.

He had already taken a risk just by sitting here and not immediately arresting Chongyang and handing it over to Prislan.

Elder Richard admired this young man, and even though Chongyang did such an impulsive thing, he still wanted to see how far Chongyang could go this time.

Previously, no one thought that Chongyang would be able to defeat Freya. Elder Richard himself even revealed the secrets of the new fire-type magic to Freya, but in the end, Chongyang still won.

Just look at this ability to create miracles, give it one more chance, why not?

Anyway, his contact with Chongyang is relatively secret, and if there is a real case, he can also try to push things clean.

"I understand. Chongyang nodded. Although most of Elder Chard's attitude was realistic, Chongyang was still grateful for his willing help, and he knew the bottom lineโ€”not to cause trouble for the Howason family.

Looking at Chongyang's eyes, Elder Richard seemed to remember some memories of his youth, and the expression in his eyes became more and more gentle.

Who has not been young, who has not been frivolous?

A new generation, a new genius, needs a new gorgeous stage.

"The second thing, the message you're going to release, is doable. It's just that you can give me a thorough understanding first, how far can you ask that Healing Grandmaster?" said Elder Richard.

"Healing Grandmaster?" Chongyang was slightly stunned. It was a little different from what he expected, but he was as resourceful as he was, and in an instant, he understood Elder Richard's hints, intentionally or unintentionally.

The magic defect was cured, and he also won the genius of the earth and wind double system, which was an event that caused a lot of concussion in high-level circles. Then the key to the incident, the real root, is not to "win the genius" but to "cure the magic defect"!

If it weren't for the healing of the magic defect and the ability to jump two levels in a row, it would be impossible to defeat a strong enemy.

Treat!

In the high-level circles, there are many powerhouses who are eager to receive high-grade treatment from the Grandmaster level!

"Whoever can protect me, including my family, from harm, then, no matter what illness that strong man is suffering from, I can ask the Healing Master to treat him with all his might!" Chongyang said resolutely.

The secret of the fire demon cannot be revealed.

But when it comes to "treatment", there are still many loopholes to exploit.

It works!

Elder Richard smiled in satisfaction.

Match the Healing Grandmaster with the big names in the Imperial Capital...... Is there a better intermediary job on the mainland than this kind of thing?

The Howason family, in the process of negotiating on behalf of Chongyang, can also win good interests.

Everyone was happy.

......

After Elder Richard agreed to get to work, Chongyang temporarily left the Magic Association, seeking a relatively safe place to wait for the results.

The best way to hide trees is in the forest.

So Chongyang chose to temporarily act as a lone mercenary, blending in with the all-encompassing crowd of the three sects and nine streams, and making one or two commissions.

When I came to the Adventure Guild, this time as a mercenary, I entered from the other side, and I immediately entered a completely different world than when I was a client.

The roar and shouting that filled my ears, the clashing of wine glasses, the pungent smell of sweat and the smell of wine, the five or three thick warrior men, and the sinister wandering mages with sinister eyes...... It's so noisy.

If it weren't for the quest delivery reception at the end of the hall, it would be no different from a giant tavern.

Chongyang walked over to the counter and inspected the rows of shelf bulletin boards.

The first floor of the Adventure Guild is where the lowest-level mercenaries are given the lowest level tasks. Only mercenaries or adventurers who have reached the realm level mage or above and have a certain reputation are eligible to go up to the second floor. As for large groups, it's a different route.

If Chongyang's strength fully explodes, it will not fall behind even against the upper realm-level mages. But on the surface, he was just a fifth-level mage rookie, and he could only choose some tasks on the first floor and mingle with lowly warrior men.

Magicians are the strongest profession, and no matter how much samurai they are, they are only foils, and their status in the continent is low. However, in actual combat, a strong enough samurai often plays a role that is not inferior to that of an ordinary basic-level mage.

The first floor is the realm of samurai, and although domain-level mages are dismissive of them, most basic-level mages are willing to team up with them to perform certain difficult tasks to increase their safety.

On the other hand, samurai generally have a lot of respect for magicians, and if the conditions are right, if they invite magicians to accompany them, their combat power will increase a lot.

Chongyang quickly inspected the tasks, and most of the ordinary tasks he couldn't look at, so he directly jumped over the bulletin board in front of him, went to the deepest depths, and saw the most difficult and highest-paying task profiles.

"Hey, you're a newbie, aren't you?"

A crisp female voice suddenly came from the side.

Chongyang turned his head and saw a girl with fiery red hair, black leather armor, a pair of daggers around her waist, and sharp eyes, holding her hands in front of her chest, looking at herself.

Although he looks young, he is extremely well developed, and his body is filled with a youthful and toned atmosphere that those mage girls in the academy do not have, with a slender waist and long legs......

"I've been paying attention to you since you came in, you're a fire mage, right?" The beautiful girl wrinkled her little nose and said in a cold voice, "You look like a complete newcomer, but you want to take on the highest paying task from the beginning, are you stupid?"
