Chapter 128: Vigilance
Night has crept down.
In the heart of "Port Newinn", in a hotel box that looks very upscale and elegant.
"Dilis, haven't you completed your research assignment this quarter?"
Leaning back on the soft sofa, Anthony shook the wine glass in his hand, and the fuchsia wine swirled along the wall. Seeing the girl who was still studying a piece of parchment in the corner, she asked very casually.
"Ah, it's not close!"
Putting down the parchment paper in his hand full of pictures and symbols, Dilis scratched his hair with some distress and complained:
"Last time, because of Aven's reminder, I had already circled several mediums that would allow the 'Potent Voodoo Elixir' to be stored stably, and I thought it would produce results quickly.
However, the optimal ratio of stabilizer and agent and subsequent processing method are stuck again, and the effect between different ratios is simply different, and in the most serious case, even the glass bottle used to hold the agent will be melted in an instant!
Oh my God, I'm going crazy!"
Got up and picked up another glass of wine that Anthony was sitting next to him and drank it down, taking a sip of wine not very ladylikely: "Sometimes I am really jealous of a genius like Aven, with countless whimsical ideas, and a strong executive ability to turn ideas into reality. I felt so stupid and hopeless in comparison. ”
"Hehe, how can it be simple to be able to receive three heavyweight medals at the same time: the 'Hippoclark Second Class', the 'Iron Cross' blessed by the goddess, and the 'Pioneer Medal' issued by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
Not only is it your potions research, but he has also helped me a lot in the previous project of "The Evolution of New and Old Runes in the Continent". Several research assignments assigned to him by the association were all overfulfilled by him in the shortest possible time...
I have a hunch that sooner or later, this new friend of ours will overtake us and become a real official wizard first!"
Anthony heard Dilis's complaints, but said something else.
"Oh, aren't you jealous, Anthony, who is a newcomer, but is making progress at an unbelievable pace, and then leaving us old people far behind. ”
Dilis gave her companion a playful look and lifted her glass to make him pour himself a glass of wine.
Ignoring Dillith's teasing teasing, Anthony at this time was like a wise man who could see through the fog and explain his opinion to her.
"You and I are well aware that in the world of the Transcendental, family, resources, and worldly power can only help us at a basic level. And the higher the rank, the more transcendent beings have to rely on qualifications, spirituality, and even ethereal luck.
A mediocre person may end his life as a full-fledged wizard, and his luck will almost stop at a low-level apprentice for life. But those geniuses can attack the truth of the 'superior wizard', and even the legendary 'crowned wizard'.
Although I am only a small wizard apprentice, judging from my experience in the association and my family's investigative intelligence, among the members who have joined the association in the past ten years, our Mr. Evan has the potential to become the most shining star. ”
The aroma and color of the wine in his hand had reached its best, and Anthony took a sip and said in a distant tone: "So, my family and I are very happy to be friends with such a guy instead of... Enemy. ”
If Aven heard what the two of them said about him, he would definitely feel ashamed.
There are countless whimsical ideas because of the vision and knowledge that transcend the times from previous lives, the auxiliary scientific research ability that provides insight into the essence comes from the "data-based vision", the perverted level of execution comes from strict self-discipline, and the amazing learning speed is because of the learning habits and plug-in assistance developed in the past.
These really have little to do with the so-called genius, at least not as much as the two people imagined.
"Well, maybe there is a gap between mediocre people like us, who have been able to join the Society through our family's long-term relationship with the Violet Eye, and true geniuses.
But I'm not going to be satisfied with just stepping into this magical circle, I'm going to do my best to become a real wizard and control my own destiny no matter what!"
Dilis's eyes were fixed on the wine that was constantly shaking in his hand, and his tone was flat, but it revealed a firm will that most men could not match.
After all, as a female member of a large family, the wizarding path was already the only lifesaver for her to avoid the established fate of family marriages and godsons.
How can they not pay for the family's resources and privileges at critical moments? Those who have gained a huge advantage and selfishly want to chase freedom, individuality, and love regardless of the overall situation, are really terrible.
Striving for progress reflects a greater value than marriage, which is Dilisi's choice.
Although it was difficult, she never regretted it!
"By the way, how did that guy Alva go for so long and haven't come back. Not wanting to talk about the heavy topic of the future anymore, Anthony interrupted.
He took out a silver pocket watch studded with gems from his arms and looked at it, his brows furrowed and he said with some displeasure: "And it's time to serve the food, when have these guys been so unruly?"
The tone was stern, as if the waiter in the hotel was his own servant.
However, he was one of the few people who was qualified to say such a thing, because the hotel was the property of the Anthony family. Disrupting the normal dining process is not only detrimental to the host's face for the upper class, but also disrespectful to the guests!
Jingle Bell –
Anthony rang the rattle calling for the waiter.
"Huh?"
After a long time of no response, Anthony became more and more dissatisfied, and his face was so gloomy that he could almost drip water. He got up and was about to rush out of the room, wanting to see if these guys had eaten the heart of a bear or the guts of a leopard today, and dared to make so many low-level mistakes over and over again.
"Wait, Anthony, listen!"
At this time, Dilis reached out and pressed Anthony, put her index finger in front of her lips and gently "shhh
"It's... The sound of prom music? What is the prom today? How do I not know?"
As soon as the continuous doubts were spoken, Anthony instantly realized that something was wrong, although he had always been pampered and had not experienced any danger. But in the transcendent world, as a transcendent involved in mysteries, he still has vigilance.
Gently came to the wall, took off the decorative sword hanging on the wall, checked the several commonly used talismans on his body and a few unique rings on his hand, glanced at Dilis, and walked to the door first.
Hmmm-
Dilis ripped off the hem of the long skirt so that it did not affect her movements, and from the black scabbard tied to her thighs under the skirt, she pulled out two short swords, and danced a sword flower to keep up.
Coming to Anthony's side, the two sword hilts clashed, and a layer of sharp air flow that was almost invisible to the naked eye instantly swirled on the cold and shining blades, and these two short swords turned out to be a complete set of extraordinary weapons.
Wizards in this world want to improve their physical fitness, in fact, there are many ways, high-level potions, witchcraft rituals, magical props, etc., most wizards with orthodox inheritance or school affiliation, in the apprenticeship stage can have a physical fitness comparable to that of a formal knight.
The activated spiritual power is enough to easily resist the impact of physical violence, like the kind of "pure" spellcaster who has no power to restrain the chicken, but in this world it is a heresy.
As a member of the School of Prophecy, Milan would not have maintained the rank of a trainee knight if he hadn't always looked down on the knightly path and the particularity of the school.
Obviously, in addition to their duties as researchers, Anthony and Dilis also have the rank of official knight (junior).
