Chapter 200: The Whereabouts of the Heart of the Earth
......
The temporary badge in hand is a dark blue metal badge. The metal plaque outlines the shape of the waves and the mage tower with simple lines, and the style is simple, but with a different flavor.
Wu Hui noticed that there was a faint taste of law in the simple lines, although it was light, it was already rare.
He subconsciously glanced at a certain mage tower that was faintly visible outside the window, and thought for a moment.
It seems that the fact that the Patrick Islands have an ancient heritage should be true.
"Just put the ID card on your body or in the storage ring, and the magic array on the island can detect it. President Wood showed the crowd how to use it, "Now you're free to move." Let's go shopping~ The association has recently produced a lot of new magical achievements, which is quite interesting. ”
So saying, he prepared to say goodbye to the people.
As the president of the Magic Society on the Patrick Islands, he is still quite busy. If Jimmy hadn't been his friend for decades, he wouldn't have come forward to receive him personally.
"Hey~ wait!"
Unexpectedly, before he could take two steps, Jimmy grabbed him: "I have something to do with you." ”
As he spoke, Jimmy pulled him into a nearby corner and asked in a low voice, "I'm actually here to ask you to buy an alchemy material." ”
"Alchemy materials?" President Wood was stunned for a moment, and then laughed violently, "Hahaha~ You old thing, you actually have a time to ask for me?"
Jimmy wanted to talk to him properly, but when he saw his reaction, he suddenly became angry, and his tone became hard: "Less nonsense." You just say whether to give it or not~"
"Hehe~" President Wood's eyebrows flew, "It's not impossible for me to give you things, as long as you say 'Brother Wood, I was wrong, I shouldn't have fought with you for Sister Adeline', I will go and find out the things for you immediately, and I don't want you for the money." ”
"You're dreaming!"
As soon as he heard this, Jimmy was so angry that he almost exploded on the spot, pointed at Wood's nose and scolded directly: "Didn't I just make you have a few troubles when I chased my little sister back then, and you still hold grudges until now? How many years has the little junior sister been married to Darwin's stinky boy, and even the prince and grandson have grown up, and you are still holding grudges?"
"What's wrong with me holding a grudge?"
Wood was also angered by him, and without saying a word, he rolled up his sleeves and quarreled with him again.
How can this be noisy?
Wu Hui watched this scene with some melancholy, before coming, Jimmy Gaunt, the old guy, patted his chest and promised that he would definitely be able to get the Heart of the Earth from the Magic Association.
But now it seems that Wu Hui faintly feels a little bad.
I'm afraid this won't go so well, right?
"Strange, how do the names Darwin and Adeline become more and more familiar?"
Just when Wu Hui couldn't help but want to interrupt the quarrel between the two, Blake suddenly appeared from beside him. Out of nowhere, he got a pack of Patrick Islands' specialty snacks, and he ate "Ka Ba Ka Ba" just right.
Listening to the content of Jimmy and Wood's quarrel, Blake looked puzzled, as if he vaguely remembered something......
"Ahh......h Tsk"
Daniel gave him a blank look.
Blake realized he had said the wrong thing and immediately shut up.
Who doesn't know that not long after Daniel's accident, the little princess of the kingdom cleanly dissolved the marriage contract with Daniel, and did not give Daniel any face at all, and gave the Principality of Lytton any face?
Wu Hui didn't expect that this affair from many years ago could still be related to Daniel, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at him.
The young man in front of him had a calm expression, but his eyes were not as gentle as usual, but rather dark.
Sure enough, no matter how calm he behaved, Daniel actually minded the matter.
After this period of getting along, Wu Hui has completely regarded this young man as his own, and looking at his expression at this time, his heart is also a little touched. If he had the chance in the future, he wouldn't mind teaching Daniel a lesson to those who had fallen into the trap.
"Stop, stop!"
On the other side, Jimmy Gaunt finally came to his senses from his hot blood and quickly interrupted Wood: "I'm not here to quarrel with you today." Don't open your mouth yet, listen to me. I'm here for a piece of material called 'Rock Soul', which you used to help me identify......"
He described in detail the properties of the original material, explaining: "This matter is very important, and my lord has issued an oracle for this purpose. You must help me. ”
When he said this, Jimmy's expression was indescribably serious, as if it were two people.
Wu Hui nodded secretly at this point, although Jimmy Gunter is usually giggling, but he is a very persistent person in his bones, and he now has a very high degree of belief in Wu Hui, the god of light, since he wants to find the heart of the earth for his light master.
"I vaguely remember this material, but it's just ......"
It's just that when he thinks of where this "rock soul" is now, he can't help but look embarrassed.
"What's wrong?" asked Jimmy, feeling wrong.
"It's really not that I deliberately embarrassed you this time, it's just that this "rock soul" is no longer in my hands. President Wood frowned, "Back then, I rushed to the Holy Rank, and in order to gather resources, I exchanged it into the public treasury of the association, and later many magicians exchanged it, but they all returned it to the public treasury because they couldn't refine it. ”
"So what are you waiting for? I'm going to redeem it. Jimmy was overjoyed, and dragged him to the Guild Treasury.
"Don't worry, I'm not done yet. Wood reluctantly grabbed him and sighed, "If you come a few days earlier, it will still be in the public treasury." But unfortunately, it was selected as one of the championship prizes of this truth conference, and it was only waiting for the real council to be awarded to the champion after the end. ”
"Can't you change the prize?" Jimmy's brow furrowed even tighter, "The championship prize doesn't have to be a rock soul, right?"
"If only a few days earlier, I could have changed the prize. Wood's expression was helpless, "But tomorrow is the day when the Truth Conference is officially held, and the prizes for the champions, runners-up and third runners-up have already been announced." At this time, what is the credibility of the Wizards Association?"
The reason why the Wizards' Association has been able to stand for so many years is because of its credibility.
When it comes to this issue, President Wood will never budge.
Jimmy suddenly stopped talking.
Wu Hui on the side also had a headache when he heard this.
What kind of hell luck did the Wizards Guild choose as the champion prize, but the "Heart of the Earth"?
He couldn't help but think, he really can't do it, just grab the heart of the earth......
No, no, no, no.
Wu Hui shook his head.
He has no grievances with the Magicians Association, and it is not his style to rob things for no reason. What's more, this magician association is very strong, and it also has the most advanced magic theory and alchemy technology in the light plane, and it will not do him the slightest benefit to rashly engage in evil.
He has enough enemies.
It seems that we can only start in other directions.
"Actually, if you want to get the "Rock Soul", it is difficult to say, and easy to say. Seeing Jimmy's frown, Wood suddenly spoke.
"How?"
"Aren't there a few juniors around you?" Wood gestured to Wu Hui and the others with his chin, "If any of them can win the championship, won't the Heart of the Earth be yours?"
Jimmy rolled his eyes, "What do you want?
Isn't it clear what the strength of these people around him is? Daniel is a swordsman, Blake is a bard, and the profession is not right, Wu Hui ...... He doesn't know if the profession is right, but with his level 1 strength, what can he do when he goes up?
The only glimmer of hope is his newly recruited assistant Cody.
Wu Hui was reminded by the two of them, but he reacted.
It's really difficult for others to win the championship, but it may not be possible to replace him. If he couldn't even compare to a group of human children, he would just buy a piece of tofu and hit his head to death.
He hadn't thought about going to the field before. But it's actually nothing to end up in person, it's just to experience life.
As long as he wins the championship at the Truth Conference, the Heart of the Earth will naturally be his.
Tomorrow will be the day of the Truth Conference, and it will not be delayed for long.
After figuring it out, he took the initiative to walk up to Jimmy and said, "Don't be so pessimistic. Anyway, it's already like this now, so I have to try it out first. If it really doesn't work, we'll just find a way to buy it from the champion. ”
"That's right. Jimmy nodded helplessly, "That's all there is to it." ”
"Now that you've decided to participate, let's sign up. Wood reminded a few people, "The deadline for registration for the Truth Conference is noon today, and if you delay it, you won't be able to participate." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Wood, for reminding me to sign up now. Wu Hui saluted him, turned around and prepared to sign up.
"Wait, wait!" Blake grabbed him with a bewildered expression, and he hadn't recovered from this abrupt turn of events, "Brother Wu, you, do you really want to participate in the Truth Conference......?"
"What does it matter if it's not a magician? The Magicians Guild doesn't stipulate that only magicians can participate in the Truth Conference. Wu Hui said with a righteous face, "Although the possibility of winning the championship is very small, but for my host, I am duty-bound, how can I not do it because I don't have much hope? Even if there is only a slight possibility, I have to give it a try." ”
"Yes, yes, ......"
Blake's mind was a little messy, he felt that Wu Hui was reasonable, but he always felt that something was wrong......
Not to mention Blake, even Daniel, Liliana, Old Butler Jem and others were a little stunned, with an expression of shock on their faces.
"It's true that the Wizards' Guild doesn't stipulate that you have to be a magician to participate in the Truth Conference. Wood was quite a bit of a posture of not thinking about the excitement, not only did not persuade him, but pushed it with a smile, "Although there is no precedent for Xiaoyou's move, in principle, it does not violate the regulations." The worst-case scenario is that they will be eliminated in the first round of auditions. ”
"That's what Mr. Wood said. ”
Wu Hui agreed with him, and regardless of the bewildered expressions of others, he directly put on a generous and righteous expression and walked to the counter of the office, and said to the clerk behind the counter: "Friend, I want to sign up for the Truth Conference." ”
He had noticed just now that this counter was not only a place for outsiders to register, but also a registration point for the Truth Conference.
The clerk does not know how many applicants to receive a day, and they are already familiar with the registration process. Hearing that Wu Hui was going to sign up, he didn't raise his head, and came out with a palm-sized sheepskin scroll, asking for key information while preparing to register him.
"Name, rank, occupation. ”
"Wu Hui, Level 1, professional bard. Wu Hui looked calm, as if he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the information he reported.
“......”
The clerk raised his head silently and stared at Wu Hui, as if he was doubting his ears.
Wu Hui nodded affirmatively.
That's right, that's what you heard.
Clerk: "......"
He had a skeptical expression on his face, but he still had a very professional ethics and didn't say anything, and silently helped him register the information.
The moment the information recording was completed, a streamer flashed on the palm-sized scroll, and at the same time, the identity card on Wu Hui's body also flashed a streamer.
"The admission ticket is bound to the identity card, and you can bring the identity card directly to the conference tomorrow. ”
"Thank you. ”
Wu Hui finished a task, and a smile appeared on his face. Next, it's time for the game.
"Friend, I'm going to sign up for the Truth Conference as well. At this moment, Blake suddenly rushed to Wu Hui's side, "Big brother, I think you have a point, for the sake of my lord, even if there is little hope, you should give it a try! Big brother, don't worry, I will accompany you!"
He seemed to have figured out something, his eyes were bright, his cheeks flushed with excitement, and his whole person seemed to radiate a holy light.
Wu Hui: "......"
Wu Hui is full of black lines. He participated because he was confident, what kind of fun did these two goods come to join in? The reason he just talked nonsense, this thing won't believe it, right?
"Name, rank, occupation. ”
The clerk didn't care what your reason was, when he heard that Blake was going to sign up, he took out a palm-sized parchment scroll and prepared to register.
As if he was completing some sacred mission, Blake said with a serious face: "My name is Blake Lytton, level 2, and my profession is a bard. ”
The clerk paused, then silently raised his head again, staring at Blake.
"What's wrong?" Blake looked dazed, completely unsignaled by the clerk.
The clerk bowed his head silently, silently registered the information, and informed the rules according to the procedure. However, how to look at that expression, how to be in a trance.
"Since my cousins are all participating, I'll join in the fun. ”
Daniel also walked over with a smile.
"Since everyone participated, count me in~" Winnie also walked behind Black with an embarrassed face, "I'll accompany the young master." ”
"Count me in. ”
The little princess of the kraken in the cloak glanced at Winnie with an uncertain expression, and suddenly walked behind Wu Hui and opened her mouth firmly.
Jimmy's assistant Cody looked left and right and walked over silently.
For a while, except for Liliana, all the younger generation of people without exception signed up.
By the time the information registration of a group of people was finished, the expressions of the clerks had changed from trance to numbness, and the eyes of Wu Hui and the others seemed to be looking at a group of neurotics. Who is a normal person who knows that his profession is not right, but still has to participate in the truth conference and look for abuse?
"Sister Nana, why don't you join in the fun?" Wu Hui glanced curiously at Liliana, the only one who hadn't signed up.
Liliana glanced at him and twisted her head back expressionlessly.
Wu Hui was about to ask again, but Daniel next to him hurriedly pulled him and whispered: "The Truth Conference is only limited to young people with a bone age of no more than thirty. ”
"What's wrong with only young people participating......" Wu Hui muttered subconsciously, and then reacted suddenly. Liliana's profile shows that she is 35 years old, which is already overage.
"Ahem~Ahem~ The weather is nice today~"
He awkwardly pulled away from the subject, pretending he hadn't asked anything.
Liliana snorted, too lazy to bother with him.
The Truth Conference will only start tomorrow, and there is nothing to prepare for a few people to sign up, so seeing that it is still early, they simply strolled around the magic bazaar together.
The magic bazaar is very lively, and there are many novelties, and a few people eat and stroll, and before you know it, it is evening.
