When the three mages heard Donald mention this topic, Dinah, who was more anxious, was about to leave with his sleeves up, and Donald hurriedly said, "It's not too late for the three of you to leave after listening to me!"

Mage Murray, who was more stable among the three and had always acted as the leader, heard the words and grabbed Dina and another mage, Russell. In any case, with Donald's identity and strength, several of them should also be given a certain amount of respect.

Donald smiled at Murray, and then said, "I can provide the three of them with the potions and materials they need to cultivate every month, as well as two pieces of spell equipment, one alchemy prop, and a few xìng props that each person has. As for the books needed for cultivation, my sī library is more abundant than the books in the clubhouse, and there are dozens of advanced texts copied by the Kingdom Mage Association. ”

Donald promised these generous treatments, which Murray and the others could not get under the mage's guild and other nobles. But although these three are tempted, they are still not ashamed of this betrayal of themselves.

Seeing that the empty words were difficult to convince the three mages, Donald took them to the library of the manor villa and let them see his collection with their own eyes.

After coming to the field, the three mages were shocked that Donald, who had only been a mage for half a year, could collect so many spell books. And looking at the names of the catalogs above, in addition to most of them being owned in the mage club, there are dozens of ancient spell books that are very advanced to them.

Seeing that the three mages were all stunned by their library, Donald motioned for them to take a look at it as they pleased. The contents of those precious books were relatively difficult, and even a silver mage like his teacher needed to read them carefully to grasp them, and the three of them did not get any practical gains in a short period of time. What's more, Donald has applied protective spells one by one on these books, and the materials used are also of the best quality, which are not easy to damage, and there will be no loss after a few glances.

After a while, Donald continued: "Don't think that the three of you are betraying the dignity of the mage, those mages who are forced to join the nobility for their lives are just wanting to live a better life, this is a personal choice, and outsiders cannot interfere. But in addition to being a nobleman, I am also a mage, and if there is a mage who is stronger than you now wants to recruit you to become a mage's assistant, will you agree?"

Murray, the leader of the three, was opening a precious book called "The Evolution of Ancient Arcane to Spells", and when he heard Donald say this, he couldn't help but answer: "What Donald Mage said is very reasonable, but our own choice, outsiders should not be able to interfere!"

Donald saw that they were already a little loose, so he struck while the iron was hot and said: "Of course I won't force the three, so if this last condition can't make the three of them tempted, then this matter is over today, and I won't bother the three of them with this question again!"

The three mages all put down their books and stood up, waiting to see what Donald would say.

"I've asked other mages, including my teacher, about the situation of the three of them, so I know better, I think you took the wrong path at the early stage, which is why you stayed at the peak of Black Iron for so long and couldn't advance. My condition is that you become a bronze mage. ”

Speaking of this, Murray and the other three mages couldn't help but move.

"Is what Master Donald said true?"

"In the name of the mage, what I said is naturally true. ”

......

A few minutes later, the three mages decided to accept Donald's offer to become the Sīren mages of the Merlinna family, teaching apprentices. The reason why he was able to successfully accept it also has a lot to do with Donald's breakthrough to bronze. The three mages who have stayed in the Black Iron Rank for many years are not young, and the eldest Russell is forty-five years old, but he has never given up, which shows that he is determined on the path of mage.

The three of them had nothing to ask for but spells, so under the condition that Donald could lead them to the path to advancement and help them in the future, in addition to the basic treatment, the three mages decided to stay with hope and fighting spirit.

Then Donald said to the three of them: "To be honest, I have at least three ways for you to rely on external forces to directly promote to bronze, the first two rely on props and medicines, and there is also a way to correct your path, fill in the previous shortcomings, and have a chance to let you advance on your own." The first two methods are easy to implement and are guaranteed to be successful, but I don't recommend you to choose these two methods. After all, relying on external forces is not as good as the benefits of allowing you to advance on your own, so it is possible to go further in the future. The last method, though difficult and requiring your own efforts, will be hugely beneficial if it succeeds!"

At this moment, the three mages felt even more fortunate for this decision, and having such a master who thought about them dispelled the depression that they had to devote themselves to in their hearts.

With the three Black Iron Mages taking turns lecturing, Donald himself would take the time to teach the apprentices, and the four mage apprentices soon entered the corner. Especially the eighteen-year-old adult apprentice, he also knew that he was short on time, so compared to the other three children who were not very sensible, the harder he studied, the faster he naturally improved.

In just half a month, that adult apprentice had already released the first zero-level trick light technique and became an official mage apprentice.

At that time, it was Donald's turn to give a lecture on how to sense magic and arrange it, and the one chosen as an example was the simplest and most commonly used zero-level spell, Luminance.

After half a month of study, these apprentices have basically mastered how to control their emotions and conduct shallow meditation steps, and the next step should be to master the correct steps of casting spells.

Who knew that after the adult apprentice had finished explaining the basic steps of how to cast the light spell and his own feelings, a faint but holy light bloomed in the hands of the adult apprentice at the end of the temporary spell classroom in the Lord's Palace.

Donald, who witnessed this scene, was immediately pleasantly surprised. I didn't expect that there would be a genius mage apprentice in my territory!

"Your name is Stone, isn't it?"

In the face of Donald's questioning, the adult apprentice, who was a year older than Donald, replied in an excited and somewhat uneasy trembling voice: "Yes, Lord Lord!"

"Congratulations, you've succeeded in becoming a mage apprentice!"

The adult apprentice was stunned when he heard this, and then ......

"I'm an apprentice mage? haha! I'm an apprentice mage......"

Watching this jī sing and dance, Donald couldn't help but think of the day he became an official apprentice. I was so excited.

"Okay, you're just a mage's apprentice, and you may become an even more powerful mage in the future. ”

Seeing that this person's mood calmed down a little, Donald opened his mouth and said, "The name stone is really not suitable for a mage, who else is in your family?"

"Lord Hui, I am the only one in my family, my father and mother died early, and I was raised by the uncles and aunts in the village. ”

Donald's heart is better for orphans, there is nothing to worry about, it is easy to cultivate, and you can also have a sense of belonging to yourself.

"In that case, I will officially take you as an apprentice today, and take the first two syllables of my family as your name, and from this day onwards you will be called Merlin!

When Merlin's apprentice heard this, he was almost stunned by the happiness that followed.

"Lordship...... People!"

Donald turned his face and said, "What else is your lordship?"

Merlin immediately reacted and shouted respectfully, "Teacher!"

Then there was a not-so-orthodox mage ceremony.

Donald saw that this guy's reaction was quite fast, and he was not a fool, so he nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's the end of today's lesson, you go back and study hard, and strive to be as successful as Merlin." Now Merlin, come with me!"

In the envious eyes of the other three children, the new mage apprentice, renamed Merlin by Donald's evil taste, left with the lord, and did not even pay attention to the arrival of the oncoming mage Murray.

Donald was very happy to accept his first apprentice, first taught him a bunch of standard principles for mages, and then gave him a mage robe as a promotion gift.

The next day, he took Merlin to meet his teacher. Messer was very pleased with Merlin, who was simple and flexible. At this point, Merlin is considered to be the heir of their faction, but this guy himself doesn't know. Of course, the formal inheritance will not be taught by Donald as a teacher until Merlin has established a solid foundation and become the peak mage of Black Iron. By that time, Donald himself was probably no less than Silver Strength, and it was naturally very easy to guide a disciple at the peak of Black Iron.

While Donald was concentrating on teaching his disciples, Ferdinand came to Dalaran again to make a deal with Donald.

This time, in addition to those potions, Donald also provided a number of items that had already appeared in the auction. Including the kind of moonshine elf wine that has now caused a sensation throughout the kingdom.

"I really don't know what your head is made of, you can even make this kind of thing! You must know that even when it was the Ancient Magic Empire, such a potion that could improve human talent could only be made by an archmage or above, and the materials were also very precious and rare, at least the materials of the level of dragon blood could exert such an effect!"

Of course, Donald wouldn't tell the other party how he accidentally discovered the configuration of this moonlight elf wine, and even if he was a friend, he wouldn't spit out all his secrets to each other.

What's more, this moonlight elf wine is still the most important money-making tool for himself, and the funds needed for the development of the territory after a period of time will all depend on it.

After the deal was completed, he also asked Ferdinand about the identity of the silver-haired old man behind the Kinsol auction house.

Ferdinand heard Donald ask about the identity of the man, and said in some surprise, "Have you dealt with that old fox?" @.
