Chapter 35: Communication between Mages
This is the first time Sean has seen a real mage tower, and he observes carefully as he walks.
The Tower of Azula is a tall circular tower with a spiral staircase that revolves upwards and leads to the top, a wooden staircase made of very strong and comfortable wood, which has been finely polished and painted, and looks very quaint and sophisticated.
Around the revolving wooden ladder, there is a circle of corridors, and the outer part of the corridor is one room after another. There are 7 floors in total, and each floor has about a dozen rooms.
"The first floor is the reception room, the second floor is the servant's room, the third floor is the follower's room, the fourth floor is the room of the beginner mage, the fifth floor is the room of the intermediate mage, the sixth floor is the laboratory, and the seventh floor is the rooftop, on which it is said that the most precious treasures of the Tower of Azula are placed, but I have never been up to it, I don't know what it is."
Rick whispered as he walked. In the Tower of Azura, even he seems very reserved. On the contrary, Sean, but extremely relaxed. As a mid-level mage, Theocritus is indeed respected and awe-inspired. But Sean has seen higher-level mages, so he is very relaxed.
The servant who led Sean and Rick was very obedient to his duties, and did not say a word superfluously, and Sean could not hear any information from him.
But it doesn't matter, Sean is not here to find out about any secrets, he is just here to get acquainted with the mages of the Tower of Azula and make some deals with them. If you can, you can also get some rare benefits, such as using the Eye of Azula once.
The Eye of Azula is the treasure that Rick doesn't know about on the 7th floor.
The servant took Sean and Rick to a room and told Sean and Rick to wait inside for a while, because Theocritus was conducting an important experiment that could not be interrupted or it would be wasted.
Sean said that he understood, and by the way, he lost an eye of insight to the servant, and unexpectedly found that although the servant was not a professional, he was proficient in a variety of life skills such as tailoring and cooking, although the level of each skill was not high.
It is clear that Seokritus is a man who knows how to enjoy life.
After the servant left, Sean began to close his eyes and wait for Theocritus to arrive.
Not long after, an explosion shook the entire Tower of Azura, followed by a series of angry curses from the top of the tower, apparently someone had failed the experiment, and was annoyed.
Sean glanced at Rick, who nodded with a wry smile.
Obviously, they didn't come at the right time, and Theocritus is definitely not in a good mood today.
After a while, a mage in his fifties pushed the door and walked in, his face a little cold, and he didn't look very good.
As soon as he walked in, he saw Rick stand up and greet him, and said unceremoniously, "Rick, old friend!" I'm not telling you, don't bring anyone to me, I don't welcome any outsiders here, including you! You're not running away from the Wild West, what are you doing here? You ......"
Before Theocritus finished speaking, he suddenly saw Sean stunned slightly, then frowned, and asked half-inquiringly and half-affirmatively, "Beginner mage?" ”
All spellcasters can feel the wandering spell energy, and they can also judge the true strength of the opponent from the fluctuations of the opponent's mana. Of course, it is difficult for a low-level mage to judge the strength of a high-level mage, but for the mid-level mage Seocritus, he can tell Sean's level at a glance.
Of course, he wouldn't just say, "You're a beginner mage," which would be rude. Although far away from Stormwind City, as an old mage who had lived in the mage district of Stormwind City for decades, Theocritus was still very clear about the etiquette between mages.
Rick glanced at Sean, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
Although he had already judged, he was still a little shocked to know that Sean was a mage.
Because he had been on the Sardinia farm for so long, it was certain that no one in the entire Sardinia farm knew that Sean was a mage.
He felt surprise and admiration from the bottom of his heart for Sean's hidden abilities and all kinds of mysteries on his body.
Sean hurriedly got up, made a mage salute to Theocritus, and then said, "Freedom Mage Sean, I have seen the mid-level mage Master Seocretus. ”
He directly identified himself: a free mage.
Because Theocritus doesn't like the Stormwind regime, he naturally doesn't like court mages or battle mages who serve the regime. And for a free mage like himself, he may be closer.
After all, there weren't so many mages in the Tower of Azula at the beginning, and many of them came to Theocritus later to focus on arcane magic.
Sure enough, hearing Sean's self-report, Theocritus's face softened a lot, and he also gave a mage salute and asked, "I don't know what happened when Mage Sean came to the Tower of Azura?" ”
That's it!
Sean threw an eye of insight at Theocritus, and found that he couldn't see the specific level of Theocritus, obviously the level of this mid-level mage is not low, maybe he is close to a high-level mage. Hurriedly said: "That's the case, because I'm a freelance mage, and I've only been promoted for a short time, so I don't have a familiar mage yet, so I want to make friends with you and other mages, exchange the materials they need with each other, and make progress together." ”
Theocretus nodded.
This was expected by him. This is the case with ordinary mages. In pursuit of truth and knowledge, they don't care about money, but only about magic.
However, in Theocritus's opinion, Sean's identity may not be so simple, maybe he is a disciple of a middle-level mage, or a high-level mage. Because the badge on Sean's chest and the ring on the little finger of his right hand are not ordinary things, there are not weak mana fluctuations flowing on them, and it seems that they have also applied a clever enchantment.
There are not many such things, even by Celecritus himself.
After thinking about it, Celecritus didn't call the other mages, but invited Sean to sit down and asked directly, "I don't know what you plan to communicate with me?" Don't worry, I basically have everything that a beginner mage needs, but I don't know what you can come up with. ”
Theocritus is obviously not a cunning person like Argus and Grian, and although he has a violent personality, he is also very direct. Communicating with such a person, Sean feels a lot more relaxed, at least he doesn't have to worry about being fooled.
Just kidding, let's be fooled, if we are fooled by others every day, how embarrassing it is? We can't afford to lose this man!
After thinking about it, Sean picked up his package, put it on the table, and motioned for Theocritus to open it and take a look.
Theocritus glanced at Sean quizzically.
This package is very large, and no matter how you look at it, it must have dozens of catties. Although I don't know what it contains, I can tell from the not-so-weak magic fluctuations that it seems to contain some magic items, and it is not too bad.
Could it be that the young mage in front of him is going to exchange these things?
After thinking about it, Theocritus opened the package.
