Chapter 651: City of Chaos (17)

I ate the barbecue in a bit of a panic, and hurriedly explained to Tia and Monica about recruiting those half-breeds, and asked them to find the Five Rangers to learn how to cook Chinese food, find a suitable shop, and go out.

After a few steps, I turned back and took the scroll I had borrowed yesterday.

The gatekeeper was replaced by a dwarf and a human, and they were just as polite when they saw me, and told me by the way that I could go to the mage tower at any time.

I complained to Leo with some depression: "Next time I won't allow this!" ”

Leo pretended to be aggrieved and said, "I just want you to sleep peacefully so that you can pass the assessment successfully." ”

"Less of this!" I said, "You should know that with our current strength, joining the Mage Tower is easy!" ”

"Just in case." Leo still has a bit of a hippie smile.

"At least you should ask for my opinion first." I say.

"Okay, okay, I'll ask you next time." Leo said.

In a short time, the entrance to the Mage Tower arrived.

I walked in, and it was dark again.

Taling greeted me: "Welcome, Bijon Bloodhammer!" ”

"Hello, friend!" I said, "I'm done reading the book, please give it back to Johnny." ”

The blue-and-white torches lit up, and I put the scroll on the table, and Taling said, "It'll be right away." And the scroll flew away.

I said, "Is the assessment ready to start?" ”

"Yes, but before I do that, I need to make some clarifications," said Taling, "and that's what Johnny was supposed to do." ”

I laughed a little: "He should be upset with me." ”

"That's true," said Taling, "though, he's a little worried about the difference in strength between himself and you, actually. ”

"Isn't there an egalitarian story here? You can tell him not to worry, I don't care. I said.

"Equality is only within the rules," Taling said, "and if it is not principled, it is dangerous for the whole of Santas." ”

"I understand, please get started," I said, "to what extent I'm going to go." ”

"Actually, with your strength, it's easy," Taling said, "Our intelligence shows that your strength has surpassed that of the young patriarch of the Minotaur, which means that you have surpassed most of the patriarchs and priests of the orc temple, and even stronger than the new Antaught, the problem is, your attitude." ”

I said, "I understand and agree with your philosophy, isn't that enough?" Or, you say that you are not worried that I am a spy, are you just talking? ”

"That's not what it means," said Taling, "actually, all we're worried about is that you can't accept our philosophy. ”

"It's useless to just talk," I said, "I think it's better to be practical, to do something, to prove my attitude." ”

"Don't you want to hear a little about your hometown?" ”

My heart tightened, and I hurriedly asked, "Your information?" What did you find? ”

Taling said, "You shouldn't be surprised that the orcs have launched a wanted arrest for you, saying that you have embezzled the remains of Beamon and considered a traitor, right?" ”

I said, "I wouldn't be surprised if that's all there is to it, you should have more in-depth news, right?" ”

Taling said: "Of course, our intelligence network coverage is still relatively wide, and the current news received is that Thunder City, the capital of the Minotaur Terran, has also listed you as a traitor. ”

This news is not surprising, and it does not make my heart fluctuate too much, but I think of the Minotaur traitor Carl I met in the Three Rivers Mountains, and my feelings are inevitably a little complicated - he was a traitor at the beginning, I am the most orthodox Minotaur guardian warrior, and now, we are both wanted criminals......

At the same time, I was more worried about the situation in my hometown, so I waited for Taling to say something.

Taling is a spirit body, and it should have something in common with beings like ghosts, and it is supposed to retain a personality or "life" temper, but unfortunately this Taling Alphacomm does not seem to have it.

It said unhurriedly: "As for your hometown, as far as we know, a large-scale operation is being carried out to track down the followers of the evil gods, and it is the young patriarch Pamla who actively advocates that you are wanted, and the person in charge of the execution is the adopted son of the Ron, Kavin, who does not seem to be very active in this, and the Ron, patriarch himself does not seem to be interested in these things, so we have not found your hometown. ”

I breathed a sigh of relief, but still said, "Please help me keep an eye on my hometown, and let me know as soon as there is a situation, is it okay?" ”

"There is no problem," Taling said. However, it seems a little inappropriate for your family to be there, and you just left......"

"Is that what you think?" I asked, following Leo's reminder.

"That's right." "As far as I know, all of us come here out of desperation, and leaving your family in your hometown like you is easy to arouse our suspicions, and it is easy to give your opponent the opportunity to frame your family, which is not a good thing in any case. ”

I said, "Actually, I did divination before I made my decision." ”

"By the way," said Taling, "the divination of orc shamans and sorcerers, the prophecy of humans, and the prayers of elves all have such an effect, but they can relieve your worries." ”

I said, "But divination has certain flaws, so I need your information to verify it." ”

"Rest assured, this kind of thing is also among the problems we are studying." Taling said.

I said, "So, when exactly will the assessment start?" ”

"Actually, the assessment started yesterday when you came in," said Taling......

"What?" I was a little surprised.

Leo said, "What do you think you were asked to act for yesterday?" Hmph, with me, a director who has read countless films, it's not a problem! You've got it! ”

"By all accounts, you're a good fit to enter the Mage's Tower and be a member of Santas," Taling said. ”

"So what are you waiting for!" I said, "Hurry, I don't have anything to deal with, I can move in now, by the way, which tower owner is going to teach me?" I know that I am strong, but I also know that there are many people who are stronger than me, and I will learn with an open mind! ”

"Please don't worry, that's what I'm going to explain......"

I deliberately pretended to be anxious and tried to calm down and said, "I'll listen." ”

Ta Ling said: "According to the normal process, in fact, you can become a member of the Mage Tower yesterday, and then, starting from the basic students, slowly learning, then rising to the manager, then to the senior manager, and finally to the steward, these three are the main members of the Mage Tower, and then up, there are the three masters." ”

I asked, "So, is the Orderlies outside also managers?" ”

"The Orderlies are a little lower than the cadets, they are mainly responsible for the part outside the tower, and inside the tower, they have no identity. ”

I said, "So what you said about equality is not so equal!" ”

Ta Ling said: "These levels are only based on the strength of the authority in the tower, not a strict relationship between superiors and subordinates, for example, if a student feels that a steward is unfair, he can directly put forward opinions or even refute, as long as he has enough evidence, the owner of the tower will uphold justice, will not favor anyone, and there is no need to worry about the other party's malicious retaliation." ”

I said, "I see, that is, except for the three masters of the tower, everyone else is equal, right?" And what about the three of them? ”

Taling said: "The strength and virtue of the three masters are admired by everyone, you don't need to question this, besides, as soon as you come, you ask to learn from one of them, if you don't trust them, it is better not to learn." ”

I shook my head: "I didn't mean that, it's just that I've seen some strong people myself, and they don't give me such a good impression......"

"That's why Santas broke away from the Human Mage Alliance and came here," said Taling. "The three owners of the tower just couldn't get used to too much inequality, so they built such a peaceful and equal place." ”

"The Human Mage Alliance?" I said, "Looks like you're ......."

"None of these things are important," said Taling, "and it's not my turn to talk about important things." ”

I was stunned for a moment and said, "Actually, you can just go on." ”

Taling said, "I'll let the Ann Trustee tell you the rest of the matter, I'm not qualified enough." ”

Before I could say anything more, I saw a figure appear in the darkness.

It was a troll with a hunched back.

He is the orc priest who defected from the temple of Animo City more than ten years ago, and the peace and trust here.

"Hello, young man." With a wooden staff in his hand, the trustee walked slowly into the range illuminated by the blue and white fire.

"Hello, Anto senior." I say.

"Senpai? How ironic! Hehe......" The trustee smiled in his mouth, but there was no expression on his face, "Two people who have been expelled from the clan land and are homeless, what do they call each other seniors and juniors?" ”

I said, "Even in the steppes of Kalmdo, you are my predecessor." Besides, haven't you already agreed with the concept here and don't plan to go back? ”

"Not going back doesn't mean I don't want to, it's just that I can't," said the trustee, "Forget it, don't talk about that, you're going to join the Mage Tower, I can tell you what I need to know, but before that, can you tell me a little bit about the current situation in Animo City?" ”

I wondered, "Aren't your intelligence always on the look?" ”

The trustee said: "It's different, from the mouth of you, a newcomer, at least it will have the taste of hometown......"

"Well," I said, "what do you want to hear from me?" I was only in Animo City for two or three months. ”

"Whatever," said the commissioner, "the change in the streets, the scenery outside the city...... As long as you've been there, talk about it, and don't be in a hurry anyway. "I want to talk about "Memoirs of the Bull Head" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "Youyue Literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
