Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Mage Society

Al thought for a moment, then asked Peter some more questions. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info It's just that although his status has risen sharply recently, he is still a child after all, not a big man who calls for wind and rain, and his knowledge is limited. It's like seeing flowers in the fog, only knowing a hazy impression, and as for the details, I don't know.

Although he regretted it, Al did not embarrass little Peter, but asked about the situation in Manny District, and he asked carefully to make sure that nothing was missed.

Little Peter said a lot more, but his voice trembled a little when he said the last one, and his tongue almost knotted.

"It is said that in the shadows on the far edge of Manny, there is a mage guild built in a place that is difficult for ordinary people to find, and those strange and mysterious mages live there. No one dared to approach it at all, and it was a forbidden area in Manny. ”

As he was walking, Al suddenly stopped, standing like a sculpture in the middle of the avenue. What a familiar word, how long has it been since I practiced magic? How long has it been since I had done a magic experiment? I think back to when I came to Shenghui City, all my thoughts were on the trading houses, and in the words of the nobles in Hawley, I fell into the eyes of money, and I was blinded by gold coins. I directly forgot that I came to Shenghui City for another purpose: to climb to the top of magic and find my own path to power.

Medea's disdainful voice seemed to ring in his ears again: "A fool is a fool, and strength is the cornerstone of everything." ”

Al and his party stood in the middle of the road, blocking the road. The crowd of people passing by was not all good people, and if it weren't for Freeman's sword-wielding deterrence, some people would have scolded him.

It didn't take long for Al to get back into action, "Little Peter, we're not going to the Golden Elephant Bank, we're going to the Mage Guild. ”

Hearing Al's words, little Peter's face was full of horror. I really can't blame him for being cowardly, what kid in Shenghui City didn't grow up listening to these strange mage stories? And who hasn't been frightened by these stories in the middle of the night? Basically, in the eyes of the civilians of Shenghui City, mages are synonymous with evil and horror, but Young Master El didn't dare not listen to his decision.

Little Peter didn't know exactly how to get there, so the group asked for directions while looking for them. After many rounds and turns, after many people's guidance, it took most of the day's work to finally find the location of the Mage Association. Little Peter rubbed his eyes, barely believing what he was seeing. There is no ghostly atmosphere and poisonous fog as I imagined, but a tall building rises from the ground and is magnificent. The pale white marble tablet is engraved with bright gilded letters: Mage Association. And beneath the stele lies a heavy black stone, on which a row of letters is almost imprinted into the stone: restraint is also the highest manifestation of wisdom, and the more you know, the more you reverberate.

Al stood in front of the monument, chewing on these words, and couldn't help but yearn for it: I don't know which sage carved such philosophical aphorisms. And a genius mage as powerful as Medea doesn't know how many there are in the association. At that moment, I straightened my clothes, tidied up my appearance, and stepped into the door of the Mage Guild with a pilgrimage mood.

Along the way, the grass is long, and the flowers and fruits are abundant. Patches of lawn leaning over under the breeze, as if gently touched by a pair of gentle hands, making a pleasant sound of "whoosh", walking on it is like stepping on the Northland cashmere blanket soft and comfortable, slightly longer blades of grass gently scratch people's ankles, like a lover's intimate play, a little itchy, a little sweet. The air is filled with a rich fruity aroma, and the abundant fruit will hold the branches down heavily, as if you can tiptoe to it, and let you pick it. There are also fountains and sculptures dotted in the meantime, making a sound of tinkling and pleasant flowing water, such a beautiful scene, how can there be no clear spring decoration. Al and his party wandered through it, and little Peter rubbed his eyes again, completely confused, "Is this the legendary paradise of milk and honey?"

On this lawn, there are young people lying or sitting in twos and threes, holding afternoon tea parties. They were richly dressed, dressed in gold and silver, and they looked like rich and noble children, and all kinds of laughter and conversation were heard, filled with the beauty of youth, and Al even saw more than one band playing the repertoire, which was a great gesture.

Al also felt that something was wrong, and that he envisioned the Mage Guild as a research institute like a university on Earth, with different styles and distinctions. It's avant-garde fashion, it's antique, or so on, but it should be a place with a strong academic atmosphere anyway. No matter how they get in, it's not surprising that the people here are still in their hands, or thinking about it, or even yelling at El. And now Al saw something, a group of young people chatting happily and relaxedly, drinking afternoon tea in a leisurely manner, which was honestly inferior to the third-rate universities of Al's homeland on Earth.

As they walked in, they could see a group of people gathered around in the distance, and faintly could hear the sound of "nonsense" arguing.

When approaching, I can hear several scolding voices, such as "stupid pig, stupid, mentally retarded, Lese" and the like, saying categorically, without hesitation, like war drums, loud and brilliant, like the truth of the world, irrefutable, saying that can scold the foul language out of this feeling, that scolding brother is also a genius. It's a pity that the voice is sharp and unpleasant, like a duck screaming, which weakens the momentum of the words.

When Al heard this, he always felt a little familiar, and when he squeezed in to take a look, he found that it was indeed the young owner of the Rodriguez firm: Quinn Rodriguez. Al was deeply impressed by this gentleman who smiled and spent a lot of money for the beauty, not to mention that his male duck voice is also unique in ten thousand, and the listener is unforgettable.

But I saw that one of the people in the crowd was flushed, and he was like thunder, and the fat on his body shook with the violent movements, "Quinn, you are also the young proprietor of a big commercial house, how can you be like a pranky man, open your mouth and swear and shut your mouth, are they all like you from the east?" ”

The young owner rolled his eyes, "Don't laugh, Bosingwa, do you think I don't know your details, your family started as an animal business." The ancestors must have come casually with all kinds of black swear words, but when it came to your generation, they forgot all about it and began to chew the words. It's really ridiculous, I'm a dog who has forgotten his ancestors. ”

The fat man named Bosingwa jumped up and wanted to pounce, but he was quickly stopped by several people, shouting words like "rules" in his mouth, and finally persuaded him.
