In the world of swords and sorcery, the social structure is extremely constricted and pyramidal. The bottom layer is extremely large and weak, and the upper layer is very few in number but very powerful. The middle class is extremely embarrassed, not many in number, and the power is average.

Roma's family did business in the cities of the Northlands, and the business was doing well enough to support the family's children to learn the arcane. He didn't stay after he became an official wizard in Coldwind City, but went to the Banshee Citadel to start a 'business'.

"The Northland is about to go to war, and our family is betting on the Fils family of Banshee Castle." Rom led Zhou Qingfeng's master and servant into the room, and opened his mouth frankly, "I want to get an official position in the Banshee Castle, but it's not easy. ”

"What does this have to do with you teaching a bunch of rookies?" Zhou Qingfeng visited Roma's house, a two-story building with a front and back yard, and many servants. The one who brought him here before was Roma's butler, "You're doing well now." ”

Rom smiled bitterly at this, "The last time the Black Forest destroyed the Bane Church, a few apprentices and I took advantage of the situation to get the status of official wizards, and we can finally leave the mean and black-hearted teacher Fabro. I also need to thank you for that.

The last time I did business with you, I took a lot of demon ashes and spirit materials to the south, and I went back and forth for more than two months, making a lot of money. As for teaching those rookies, I want to train a few apprentices from ....... ”

Alchemists emphasize practicality, and many things need to be coordinated. There will always be a few apprentices in the official wizard, and the quality of the apprentice has a great influence. Rom told him about his situation, and then asked Zhou Qingfeng, "What are you doing in the Banshee Castle?" ”

"Just like you. The Northland is about to go to war, and I want to see who is stronger in each faction before I can decide what to do after the war begins. Zhou Qingfeng said with a smile.

As soon as Rohm heard this, he pulled Zhou Qingfeng to his study, and said, "Don't think about it, the Fils family will definitely win." Don't look at the number of other families in the Northland, but the strength accumulated by the Fils family in the past ten years far exceeds them.

After this battle, I bet that the Fils family will form a principality in the Northlands and officially claim the throne. The other cities either bowed their heads or were expelled from the Northlands and fled. ”

This is so conclusive that Zhou Qingfeng naturally wants to ask 'why'. Rohm hurriedly said: "The Fils family is rich, and they have been controlling the trade of the Northland for more than ten years, and other cities have to supply it.

The City Lord's Guard is being transformed into a family knights, and there are more than one hundred and fifty knights with territories, and the total number of vassal knights and squires is more than five hundred. There was also a wizarding group in the city, and there were more than thirty official wizards, so I thought about joining it.

Don't look at the other Northland cities now want to defeat the Fils family, if they really want to fight, there will definitely be people who defect. The ambitious ones are scattered internally, and no one will work hard to consume and let others take advantage. ”

The last sentence of judgment went to Zhou Qingfeng's heart. If you are not afraid of the enemy like a god, you are afraid of your teammates like pigs. The Fils family is willing to do their best, but their opponents are not necessarily united. If this is the case, you don't need to fight to know the outcome.

The situation is really developing like this, and Zhou Qingfeng's men and horses are about to be trapped in the Black Forest and can't get out. Maybe 'the puppet is not guilty, but he is guilty', and the Fils family will come to clean up him, the king of grass, after cleaning up the Northlands.

At that time, Zhou Qingfeng will make a lot of money in the elven ruins, but he will only make wedding clothes for others, "It seems that it is most convenient to go directly to the Fils family." ”

"Of course." Rohm whispered again, "Your Excellency Hugo, do you want me to introduce you to the nobles of the Banshee Castle?" You've helped me, and I'll be happy to reciprocate. ”

Zhou Qingfeng shook his head, "Don't worry, I'm not here in an official capacity, so it's inconvenient to meet the local nobles." I also hope you can help me keep it secret. ”

Rom invited Zhou Qingfeng to visit the alchemy laboratory he had set up at home, "If I can join the wizarding group of Banshee Castle, I will receive a monthly allowance of at least one hundred and fifty gold coins from the Fils family." The official knight can get eighty gold coins.

That's money you can get for nothing if you don't work. The strength of the Fils family can be imagined. The Longleg Family of Coldwind City can't compare at all. If I am willing to serve the family and have an extra income, it is much better than being an apprentice. ”

Rohm's laboratory is built underground, and there are many bottles and cans. Zhou Qingfeng frowned slightly when he came in, it was too chaotic here, and the equipment was far inferior to the virtual alchemy laboratory in the 'Gate of True Knowledge'.

"I spent all the money I earned from doing business in this laboratory." Rohm was quite proud, waving his hand, which had the meaning of letting Zhou Qingfeng praise a few words.

But Uncle Zhou sighed in his heart, the alchemy technology has been reinvented again, and the level of this laboratory in front of him is not as good as the elves of a thousand years ago. He grabbed a tool from the bench and asked, "Didn't you use activated tweezers?" ”

"What activated tweezers?" Röhm asked curiously.

Zhou Qingfeng didn't answer, and continued to ask: "Who are the wizards of the Fils family, and what level is it?" What status would your teacher Fabro compare to that? ”

"The level of the Wizarding Order?" Röhm scratched his head, "Not bad, I guess." If my teacher comes, he shouldn't be in the top five. ”

"If I help you join the wizarding group of the Fils family, can you do me a favor and provide some inside information or something." Zhou Qingfeng asked again.

Rohm smiled, overjoyed. He shook his head and said, "Your Excellency Hugo, I admit that you are amazing, but to join the wizarding group you need to obtain the approval of the wizard.

This is not something that can be done by spending money or by brute force. I've been working on this for two months now, and I haven't figured out the way yet. It is not easy to get the approval of the Fils family. ”

Zhou Qingfeng pointed to a pharmaceutical ratio table on the experimental table and said: "This ratio table is wrongly written, the so-called 'acid-base balance' theory was proven to be absurd nonsense a thousand years ago. Where did you copy this from? ”

In his own field of expertise, Rohm could not tolerate any slander from Zhou Qingfeng. He said angrily: "Your Excellency Hugo, what are you talking nonsense? This is the ratio chart left in the notes of the Grand Arcanist Kemal. ”

"What Kemal?" Zhou Qingfeng recalled the many celebrities he knew in the elf history books, "I have never heard of such a person. What is the full name? ”

"Mustafa. Kemal. Ataturk, a remarkable arcane pioneer. It took me a lot of money to get the remnants of his notes. Rohm was indignant, as if he had been greatly insulted.

Sophia searched for the name in a large number of books from the 'Gate of True Knowledge', but to no avail. In the end, it was Ciric who gave the answer, "The head of a small arcane school, known for his inability to recognize himself and his arrogance.

His descendants are schizophrenic and often like to find their ancestors indiscriminately, and at most they find sixteen in one go. Others see them as a joke. Elves don't look down on this kind of person at all, and it's normal for you not to know. ”

Cirek said so, and Zhou Qingfeng didn't care. He relegated the 'Kemal' to the level of an unobscure wizard, and instead said to Rohm: "This ratio is really wrong, and it will be better if you change it." ”

Rohm was very unhappy and said, "Your Excellency Hugo, I have great respect for you. But I'm an alchemist. ”

"What if I could do better than you?"

"I'll just swallow it on the ingredient list."

"Okay, that's a deal. Hope you have a good appetite. Zhou Qingfeng summoned the succubus with a smile, the plane passage opened, and the aura of the abyss poured out, "Medais, the alchemy equipment I deposited with you is still there, right?" Teleport me over. ”

The glamorous succubus waved his hand, and a complete and high-end alchemy laboratory table slowly appeared. Röm was still angry and annoyed, but when he saw that Medès, who only had green silk covering her body, she was immediately charmed and only knew how to drool.

Oh my God, Victor. Hugo is really hidden!
