Chapter Sixty-Nine: In the Waves

"Joe?"

After the knock on the door, it was Master Leddy's slightly hesitant words.

Obviously, even if he has a lot of confidence in Ye Qi, but after the real start, Master Eddy is still not very sure in his heart, if he doesn't see that there is still a light in Ye Qi's room, he will definitely come back to talk to Ye Qi the next morning.

"Please come in!"

Ye Qi opened the door and stretched out his hand.

"You're now?"

Master Leddy, who was standing outside the door, carefully examined Ye Qi's expression, and then, after walking into the room, he couldn't wait to ask.

"Very good, your potion is even more powerful than you thought - the detection of the superior wizard, I have no problem at all!" Ye Qi smiled and nodded, then paused, and continued: "Even if I go further, I am sure!" ”

"One step further, you mean?"

Master Rydy was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly stood up, looking at Ye Qi with incredulous eyes.

"Well, I'm more than seventy percent sure now!"

Ye Qi said very modestly about his state at this moment, and in fact, as long as it meets the original test, Ye Qi is ten percent sure of becoming a wizard master.

"More than seventy percent ...... More than 70 percent ......"

And Master Leddy muttered in a low voice - although the contact time is not very long, but for Ye Qi, a young man, Master Leddy has a considerable understanding, therefore, Master Leddy is very sure, Ye Qi said that he is seventy percent sure, so on this basis, it is okay to have two more percent.

To put it simply. It's ninety percent sure.

And this is ninety percent certain. For a Wizard level check. It has undoubtedly reached a considerable height, even if it is the detection of the wizard master.

"I think we need to make a trip to the Imperial Capital!"

Master Leddy raised his head after a moment and said slowly.

"Everything is as you arranged!"

Ye Qi did not object.

Ye Qi knew very well what Master Leddy was doing, in this era when wizards were prevalent and spells were regarded as standing capital, there was nothing safer than obtaining the title of a wizard master, even if it was a true sin. It's just that they'll be sent to the expeditionary force.

Although there is still a danger to your life there, it is better than dying right now, right?

……

The middle-aged wizard with a gloomy face sat in his office, his eyes slightly skimmed, looking down at the black dots like ants under the floating city - these black dots were basically wizards, in fact, in the imperial capital of the wizarding dynasty, the proportion of ordinary civilians was almost unparalleled.

To put it simply, in the imperial capital. Except for ordinary people with special talents, the rest of them are wizards.

Of course. Among these wizards, there are also three, six, nine, and so on.

The wizard apprentice can only act as a similar assistant behind his teacher, ensuring that he is not eliminated from the imperial capital.

Ordinary wizards, on the other hand, act as assistants to higher-ranking wizards, or enter the army, and are also working hard.

As for the upper wizards?

They have received funding from the Empire to find a laboratory within a limited range of circumstances, work on their own projects, or take their own strength to the next level and become a figure that the Empire and even the Wizarding Dynasty will respect: the Master Wizard.

However, it is undoubtedly a very difficult process.

Even, there are some wizards with average talent who are difficult to achieve in their lifetime.

And this also shows the preciousness of the master wizard; In fact, in the Floating City of the Imperial Capital, these masters were in important positions in certain departments.

For example: Archon.

However, the Archon is a Master Wizard, but the Master Wizard is not necessarily a Archon; Thus, in some ways it also illustrates the rarity of the consuls.

If there is no special talent, or considerable contribution and connections, the archon is also out of reach for the master wizard.

Therefore, once the opportunity arises, those wizards who aim for the position of consul will not be polite.

It's like, this middle-aged wizard with a gloomy face.

In fact, in the last consul election, he was already nine out of ten, if it wasn't for the guy from the Vonder family, he would have become the new consul, and in the past four years, he would have brought countless benefits to the entire wizarding dynasty.

Instead of staying there like that guy, he only knew that he was making profits for himself.

Hum!

As soon as he thought of what the consul of the Feng De family had done, this middle-aged wizard with a gloomy face couldn't help but snort coldly, especially when he thought that the previous plan that was nine out of ten would fail, and this middle-aged wizard, who was already in a terrible mood, was in a worse mood.

However, no matter how bad it was, he knew what he should do—

"What is that guy from the Vonder family doing?"

The grim-faced middle-aged wizard asked.

"He's got what happened in the town of Dati...... It was a letter of statement from Master Rydy and Grand Duke Cormos accusing him of inaction; And ......" Speaking of this, the assistant quietly glanced at his teacher, and found that his teacher did not take the initiative to show any special expression, and then continued: "Moreover, the attention of the other archons has also been ......"

Bang!

The assistant had only said half of his words when the wizard with a gloomy face had already slammed the table and stood up, shouting even more, "Damn it! Damn it! ”

Suddenly, the assistant's cold sweat began to break out from his forehead, and then quickly overflowed all over his body.

As the other party's assistant, he knows very well how ruthless and unsympathetic the other party is; Don't say that he is just the other party's apprentice, even if he is the other party's closest relative, once such a thing goes against the other party's mood, it is just a dead end.

Of course, this is not speculation. It's a fact.

One of the other party's nephews. That's how they died. This is what he saw with his own eyes.

As for his status as a wizard?

Outside the imperial capital, there may be some role, but here, facing a wizard master...... The result is naturally self-evident.

"Go, create some events for me, and distract those archons!"

The middle-aged wizard with a gloomy face said.

"Yes, Teacher!"

The assistant was very embarrassed in his heart. But on the surface, he didn't dare to show any of it, on the contrary, he immediately agreed.

After all, he knew very well that if he didn't want to die, then he had better agree.

As for after?

Naturally, it was done with all your might – whether it succeeded or failed.

The wizard who follows the tradition attaches great importance to the inheritance between master and apprentice, that is, even if he wants to break away now, it will be too late. He will still be regarded as a disciple of this wizard master, and he will be branded with the traces of the other party for the rest of his life; Unless he's willing to give up everything he has now. Change places and start over incognito!

But......

It's just too hard!

Thinking about what he has done now, there is no way for this assistant to choose to give up like this.

It takes courage to fight, and it takes more courage to give up.

Even, at some moments, a true warrior is not indomitable, but knows when to choose to give up.

The assistant bowed away, and the middle-aged wizard with a gloomy face circled around the desk twice, and then, too, left the office and walked towards the inner part of the floating city.

He thinks he's in need of some help at times like these.

Of course, this kind of help naturally comes at a cost, if it is in normal times, of course he is unwilling, but at this time, he naturally has to make a trade-off.

However, when he approached the hall and saw the opponent standing there: the archon of the Vonder family, the middle-aged wizard with a gloomy face couldn't help but narrow his eyes—a very bad feeling came to his mind.

"Good day, Reed!"

The Archon of the Vonder family smiled as if he had seen a friend, and greeted the middle-aged wizard with a gloomy face.

"Good day!"

The middle-aged wizard with a gloomy face responded to the other party, but in his heart he was thinking about why the other party came here - it was obvious that according to his usual habits, the other party would not have come here at all; After all, as an archon, he has an independent wizard tower, and even if he enters the floating city, he will come by riding the wizard tower, not on foot.

And this abnormal behavior, especially at this juncture, clearly represents an extraordinary meaning.

Could it be......

Almost in the next moment, the middle-aged wizard with a gloomy face thought of something, and suddenly, his already gloomy face became even more gloomy.

"Reed, I remember originally, we were friends, right?"

The consul of the Vonde family said suddenly.

"It depends on what your definition of a friend is. If it's an entourage, I think we're friends! ”

The middle-aged wizard with a gloomy face sneered.

"I didn't think so, you know, Reed?"

The consuls of the Vonder family had a hint of grief on their faces.

"Feng De put away your tricks, you know, doing this will only make me want to kill you even more!"

The middle-aged wizard with a gloomy face did not hide his killing intent in the slightest, and the coldness in his eyes almost made the temperature between the two of them drop by a point.

"Well, since you said so...... So, let's talk about it openly and honestly! ”

The consul of the House of Vonder pointed to the side hallway, where sunlight shone in obliquely, through the semicircular dome and the support of the white columns, pulling out a long oblique shadow.

And the two master wizards stood in the place where the lights intertwined, talking in a low voice.

The wizards who passed by here, when they saw this scene, bowed from a distance and stepped aside—in their opinion, this was a negotiation between the two masters, and they could not participate in it at all.

In the eyes of some well-intentioned people, it is the beginning of a good show.

About half an hour later, the two master wizards chose to leave at the same time.

The Archon of the Vonder family returned directly to his wizard tower, and the wizard with a gloomy face entered the halls of the Floating City.

Soon, though. This sorcerer with a gloomy face. chose to leave angrily.

And this time. The last glimmer of the sunset was also converging in the clouds, representing the darkness of the night that began to envelop the heavens and the earth, but in the floating city, it was shrouded in the pale blue light of the magic crystal, but in the hall outside the passage representing the bridge on the other side, everything was illuminated by white.

And with the flickering of the bridge passage on the other side again, two figures appeared in this hall again-

"Master Leddy!"

The wizard in charge of the management said hello straight away. Obviously, he knew the master wizard in front of him.

"Ben, good evening!"

Master Reddy waved his hand and introduced Ye Qi beside him at the same time: "Ben, this is Joe; Joe, this is Ben, the person on duty in the teleportation hall of the bridge across the imperial capital! ”

"Hello, Ben!"

"Hello, Joe!"

Ye Qi greeted the wizard in front of him very friendly, and the other party also reciprocated with a rather kind attitude - of course, for the sake of Master Rydy's face.

The same. The relationship between the other party and Master Leddy is far more than that.

After a brief greeting. The one who had invited Master Reddy to the side room alone did not come out until a full five minutes later.

Ye Qi was not surprised by this.

As a wizard master, no matter how indifferent he is to fame and fortune, he will definitely have some power network, whether he wants to or not.

However, it can be seen that this wizard named Ben has a very unusual relationship with Master Leddy.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have informed Master Rydy in detail about everything that had happened to him in the imperial capital at this time—Ye Qi didn't want to eavesdrop, but the powerful [Perception] allowed him to listen to every move around him in great detail.

"The Archon of the Vonder family and the Master Reed have torn their faces - the guy who sent the assassins!" Master Leddy said as he walked, "Reed doesn't have a very good reputation, and is always used to using some insidious means to his advantage...... However, I didn't expect this guy's courage to be so big! ”

"If there are interests, there will naturally be those who take risks!"

Ye Qi said naturally - compared to the struggle in the era of the wizarding dynasty, the struggle in the era of freedom is not inferior to this, or even more tragic.

In the supreme government, there is no 'truth in the world of the world', and that kind of play with power will definitely make people die without a place to bury if they are not careful.

"Alas...... They never understand what reality is! Master Leddy sighed like this, and then, pointing to the end of the street, continued: "The floating city of the imperial capital, is it the first time you have seen it?" ”

"Well, it's more spectacular than I imagined!"

Standing behind the lookout, Ye Qi raised his head, looked at the behemoth under the night sky, and let out a sincere admiration - for the floating city, he had only seen it in books, and a more intuitive impression was the illustrations in books.

Of course, these illustrations are just imaginary drawings by some artists based on written records.

Therefore, some discrepancies are inevitable, and when the island-like floating cities appear in the sun, people are amazed and at the same time, they inevitably think that the painters are exaggerating the facts.

At that time, Ye Qi also had such thoughts.

However, when he really saw the Floating City, he realized that he was shallow-

Not only did the painters not exaggerate the facts, on the contrary, they did not understand the true meaning of the floating city at all.

It wasn't like islands, it was really like a city, a city with hundreds of thousands of people.

The mystical passages provided by the mana power emitted formed the power that floated out of thin air, exuding an inexplicable brilliance under the moonlight.

And this kind of brilliance, sprinkled on the ground, makes people unconsciously immersed in it.

Immersion in greatness, splendour.

Not only wizards, but even witchers from another era are the same, and even more inexplicable feelings.

Because, Ye Qi knows that in the near future, all this will disappear.

Everything will be consumed by the flames of war -

Floating cities, wizard towers, with thick black smoke falling from mid-air, countless wizards dying on the battlefield, and more than more, the death of a culture.

Everything that records the 'wealth' of many wizards will be gone.

In exchange, it was the beginning of a troubled era, which lasted for almost five hundred years before a stable beginning appeared again.

It's just that such a stable beginning contains all kinds of conspiracies.

Among them, there are human ones, and there are also ...... Divine!

Ye Qi's gaze passed through the huge floating city, ignoring the faint silver glow, and in the shadows of the sky, the golden light that only his gaze could find was faintly flickering.

Ye Qi squinted his eyes slightly, he wanted to see everything inside clearly, but without the blessing of the power of faith, he couldn't see everything under the golden light at all, but the fluctuations inside were 'obvious' - the eyes of the gods had obviously begun to look at this.

And some changes also began at this time.

Ye Qi lowered his head slightly and withdrew his gaze - as a participant, he needed to think about how to position himself in this war.

After all, as a wizard, he couldn't avoid such a war.

"Joe, what's wrong with you?"

Master Lyman looked at Ye Qi, who had a strange face, and asked.

"Nothing! I was just shocked by the Floating City! ”

Ye Qi smiled and waved his hand.
