Chapter 85: Do You Want to Be a Mage?
Afterwards, Arthur followed R2D2 in a daze, and took the elevator to the top floor of the secret realm, the large laboratory exclusive to Victor.
In the laboratory, as before, Victor's tall figure sat on that chair, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
As soon as Arthur saw his mentor,
"Mentor, I'm ......"
"Don't explain, I know it all!"
Victor stretched out an impatient hand to stop his explanation.
"Humph! It's just that you just got a little famous, and you caused trouble, are you very good at causing trouble? ”
Arthur was full of grievances, and he still couldn't figure out what was going on.
But Victor didn't mean to explain it to him.
"You don't have to worry, I know who the other party is, and I will go to the person hiding behind me to settle the score."
Victor lightly brushed the matter over with a few words, as if it were really insignificant.
But Arthur, who was sitting at the bottom, was MMP in his heart, telling him not to worry, how could it be possible, the target of the enemy's attack was himself, how could he really not worry.
But looking at Victor's expression, he didn't dare to talk back to Victor in front of him.
Victor waved his hand, as if he had put the matter behind him in an instant, and said to Arthur:
"Arthur, what I'm going to ask you now is, have you considered making an early cut?"
Early promotion?
Surprised Arthur raised his head, and instantly forgot about what he had just done, to be honest, he had thought about promotion, but was it really feasible for the alchemist to advance in advance? To be honest, until now, he was still confused about the way the alchemist was promoted.
"The promotion of our alchemists is different from the promotion of mages," Victor explained to Arthur, "The only criterion for the promotion of mages is the strength of their spiritual power and their understanding of the magic net, but the promotion of our alchemists depends more on your mastery of knowledge." ”
"Specifically, we implement an assessment system, the assessment mainly depends on your knowledge and mastery of spell models, when you master the drawing of spell models of first-level magic, and after the Alchemist Guild has accumulated enough arcane points by publishing articles and receiving alchemy tasks, you can advance."
Oh, isn't that very much like the way Earth was in a previous life? So peaceful?
Don't you need to put a whole bunch of monsters? Arthur couldn't help but complain.
And the common arcane point in the magic net is so important, it is related to the promotion of the alchemist, no wonder it is worth so many magic crystals, this once again proves to him that the level of the alchemist is always proportional to his wealth, Arthur can't help but wonder if he has lost money by spending it so quickly.
"In your case, I didn't intend to consider letting you advance, although you worked hard, but remember, in the line of casting spells to us, there is never a shortage of effort, what is lacking is will and faith."
As Victor talked, he suddenly emphasized it again, in a stern tone, and he didn't know what he remembered.
"But now that your spiritual power has been promoted, and you have the qualifications to be promoted to mage, I can't force you, plus your invention in the new magic guide also proves your innovation, which will give you a lot of points. After all, we alchemists are on the path of pursuing the mysteries and knowledge of magic, and we always encourage innovation. Every newcomer who has the courage to make bold innovations will be encouraged by the Alchemy Society.
There is that invention, as the inventor of a new type of magic guide, you can publish relevant papers in any journal, and you will definitely pass, you have no shortage of arcane points, so now, you only need to prove that you have mastered the drawing of the spell model of any level of magic, and you can apply for promotion. ”
It's that simple?
Arthur thought about it himself, and the kind of thing the mentor told him, sure that this was an exceptional promotion, in the final analysis, Mentor Victor did not think that he had completed the complete cultivation of the apprenticeship stage, this was a preferential treatment for him, and you should still look at the invention of the new magic guide device.
As for deciding whether to advance or not, yes, yes!
Arthur is not stupid, he has to spend so many years in the apprenticeship stage honestly, and the sooner he advances, the sooner he will master more and more powerful spell models.
It can also master a stronger ability to protect itself. It seems that when he encounters the same situation as just now, he doesn't need to talk nonsense, just throw a few powerful spells over and solve it, how simple is this? Considering the huge difference in class status between an alchemist and an alchemy apprentice after promotion, it is even more necessary to advance.
Those people would dare to attack an alchemist, but would they dare to attack a full-fledged alchemist casually?
As for the basic knowledge and professional skills that have been swept away because of the exceptional promotion, won't he go back and learn again after the promotion, and read more books, and there is no shame.
In short, promotion is beneficial to him, and he is stupid not to advance.
"Then, Mentor Victor, I've thought it through, I want to advance,"
Victor looked at him, a flash of red in his eyes, and nodded.
"Okay, then you go down and make arrangements, three days later, come here again, you need to draw a first-level magic spell model in the presence of no less than three official members of the Alchemy Association. Prepare well! ”
"Ahh
It turns out that there is really an assessment! Arthur's heart was pounding.
Then Arthur saw Mentor Victor's tall steel body stand up from his chair, and thought it was time for him to end the conversation, and was about to say goodbye, but the Mentor beckoned to him again, motioning him to lean over,
Arthur leaned over and saw that strange smile on Mentor Victor's steel mask again,
"Now let's discuss another matter."
Arthur looked up and listened,
"Now let me ask you, do you want to become a full-fledged mage?"
At this time, Victor's mentor's steel mask was already an unconcealable smile, and the twisting of the steel muscles was extraordinarily infiltrating, giving people a peculiar sense of comical, reminding Arthur of an old movie, V-word vendetta?
He always felt that there was something else behind Mentor Victor's actions.
As for becoming a full-fledged mage?
Nonsense, who wouldn't want to?
The mage casts spells directly, and there is no need to borrow magic guides at all, and although the mage's spell casting is also subject to various restrictions of the magic net, the mage's power is truly his own after all, not like an alchemist, any spell casting needs to be done with the help of magic tools.
It is not unreasonable that the profession of mage can dominate the mainland for so many years.
Compared to the alchemist, the mage is the one who really has the most direct power.
Arthur, of course, wanted to be a mage.
Don't
"Is this okay?"
Arthur looked at his mentor in disbelief.
"Of course, who made us alchemists an auxiliary profession after all? The alchemist profession can be practiced together with other professions, this does not hinder, but it is just a profession at the same time, which will inevitably take up more of your energy, this needs to be weighed by yourself, the greatest alchemists in history, many of them have common minor professions, this is not a secret.
And the mage profession is also one of the minor professions chosen by alchemists in most cases. We alchemists delve into spell models every day, doing the same thing as those mages. And mages are different from us alchemists, as long as you have enough mental power, as for connecting to the magic net, it's just a ritual! No one can stop you from becoming a mage. ”
Mentor Victor laughed.
"Don't forget, I'm a mage myself, and I'm a mage registered with the Taysemir Mage Guild."
Arthur listened to the teacher's explanation, it turned out to be the case, but he still always felt that there was something wrong, but it didn't matter, as long as he could be promoted to mage, he would earn it anyway.
No one will let go of this opportunity.
However, at this time, the teacher suddenly said:
"But I think you might have a better option than a mage."
"A better option?"
Arthur's face was full of surprise,
"What choice?" He asked.
Tutor Victor answers:
"That's the Warlock, or, you could call it, the former Bloodline Wizard!"
