Chapter 141: Temptation
[You don't need to be so serious, do you? Li Lin was a little unaccustomed to the atmosphere in the study. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Soon, however, a chubby middle-aged woman came up with three drinks. He gently closed the door.
Li Lin picked up the tea in front of him and said that it was new tea, but the way people here used tea is very similar to the way the ancients used tea before the Tang Dynasty on the earth. First, it is ground into flour, and then it is added to cook, what pepper and ginger are valuable, and what is valuable. Full of sincerity, but the taste is helpless~~ Li Lin wanted to cry and looked at the hot teacup without tears.
"First of all, I want to thank you for saving Sophia. There was an assassination at the banquet, and thanks to you, Sophia was not injured, and I owe you a debt for that. Adolf was the first to speak, his words full of sincerity.
"Ahem, it's nothing. Adolf Mentor. Li Lin nodded, but the tea in his mouth almost squirted out. As if he understood something, he looked at Senior Sister Sophia, who was pretending to be calm, with some anger.
You don't need to target me like that, do you? The grace of saving your life, it's just a matter of not mentioning it with your body, but you can't even ~~
He said, someone like Mentor Adolf, someone saved his precious daughter's life, so many days, why do you have to show a little, right? It turned out that someone had hidden the matter.
"Hmm." Adolf pondered for a moment, then spoke again, "That's how I learned that you turned out to be an official knight. Do you want to enter the Oak Academy because you can't continue on the path of knights, and you want to find a breakthrough......
Li Lin nodded without hesitation. "That's right, Mentor Adolf. Frankly speaking, I have a pursuit of my own strength that is difficult for ordinary people to understand. I am not willing to be just an ordinary knight, but the road of a great knight is so far away for me. I had seen the power of the Ring Mage, and one day, it occurred to me that the power of the Ring Mage might be a new path for me! ”
Li Lin already had a few guesses about Adolf in his heart. So just say what you plan to do. It's not a big secret anyway.
"You've met the Ring Mage~~ Hey, I'm older, and my brain is a little bad." Adolf was stunned. Because even in the city-state, except for those apprentices who play tricks, there are not many official ring mages, and even fewer can see the ring law still live so chicly. However, as soon as the words came out, he remembered that Li Lin himself was a knight-level powerhouse, and the ring mage, who might be very mysterious to ordinary people, might have met him more than once.
"You saved Sophia, and I'll tell you some things. The recommended places in the elite colleges may not be as good as you think. Seeing Li Lin's slightly excited look, Adolf waved his hand, "Actually, Oak Academy has its own enrollment channels, and you should know this in your heart." Compared to the Ilia Elite Academy, the so-called Oak Academy is more like a power organization that belongs exclusively to the Ring Mage. ”
"Regardless of the organization, loyalty comes first. Your age, as well as your official knighthood, are your disadvantages. ”
Li Lin actually wanted to say that Allah is very young, and the old face you see is just the result of the careful retouching of Dongying's makeup technique, which is one of the four major evil arts in Asia, but considering that it is more difficult to explain it~~ It is even very likely to be wanted as a spy or something, so he finally held back.
"Of course, you don't have to worry too much, if you just join the Oak Academy, even the Ring Mages will not refuse an official knight with an innocent background. There are quite a few official knights in the academy who came here in this way. But let's be honest, the few contracts made by the Oak Academy are really not very good for a knight like you who craves strength and freedom. ”
Listening to Adolf muttering a lot, Li Lin was no longer in a hurry. He can see that the old guy in front of him seems to have some kind of plan of his own.
"The path of a knight and ring mage is not easy to follow, coupled with a series of complicated external people or things, most people will be stunned to find that they have been working in vain when they look back after wasting a few years of precious time."
"I personally have sincere admiration for your efforts to pursue strength. Without excellent self-strength, all the glory and wealth are just castles in the air. Unfortunately, I realized this too late. As if remembering something, a trace of sadness flashed in Adolf's old eyes.
Sophia, who was on the side, hurried to her father's side and comforted him.
"It's not an easy road." After a long time, Adolf looked at Li Lin fixedly again, "You are very honest, but the Ring Mage is a path that requires more talent than a knight. Are you sure you have such a talent? ”
"How do you know if you have it without trying it?" Li Lin smiled, "If you don't even try, then it's impossible to have even a one-thousandth possibility." ”
In front of a beautiful woman, it is really a disgraceful thing to cheat on her elderly father. However, who made Li Lin thick-skinned. Besides, he's not lying, he's really interested in the Ring Mage.
Besides, strictly speaking, he is known as Loren City in the name of the Raven, and he is indeed not a real Ring Mage!
"Good." Adolf laughed. "You resemble me when I was younger. Persist and don't give up easily. Hopefully you're not out of luck like me. ”
"So, you're a Ringmage?" Li Lin's eyes lit up, and he asked urgently.
"Not what you think." Adolf shook his head. "I'm not the Ringmage you think I am. I'm just an ordinary person who aspires to be a mage, and after decades of wandering, I'm just a juggler who can play two-handed tricks. He sighed and said no more. Okay, I'm tired and want to rest for a while, Li Lin, come back next time.
Li Lin still wanted to say something, but at this time he had to get up and nod. "So, thank you for your hospitality, the student will go first."
"Sophia, send Li Lin." Adolf stood up, took a book from the shelf, and handed it to Li Lin. "This is what you want, you take it and find out first, come over tomorrow, I will teach you alone, if you can satisfy me, I will help you step into the path of the ring mage."
A hint of joy flashed in Li Lin's eyes. Respectfully took the book. "Thank you, Mentor Adolf."
"Hmm." Adolf waved his hand and said no more.
Li Lin followed Sophia out of the study. Downstairs out of the villa. Li Lin got into the carriage, Sophia stood outside the carriage and hesitated, but still explained: "I'm sorry, it was my fault for what happened before, I don't want my father to worry too much about my safety, so I ......"
