Chapter 66: Invitations and Rejections
"This master, the play has been watched, can you come out and talk?"
Maintaining the form of a giant bear with the strongest resistance ability, Luo Sheng watched the open space in front of him vigilantly, his whole body tensed, ready to deal with any changes. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Before finally chasing Rem, Rasheng smelled the smell of others in the air. Contacting the news from Old Kidd before, Luo Sheng probably guessed the identity of the other party. However, Luo Sheng didn't dare to be too careless, and he didn't dare to completely relax his vigilance before he really confirmed the identity of the other party.
"I'm curious, Luo Sheng, how did you find out about me, is there any flaw in my invisibility technique?" Under Luo Sheng's gaze, a black-robed figure slowly appeared from the void and came to Luo Sheng.
"Of course, there is no flaw in the master's invisibility technique, but the smell of condensation incense on his body is a little heavier. Seeing the other party's appearance, a trace of surprise flashed in Luo Sheng's eyes, but he still lifted his preparation posture, regained his human form, and responded with a smile.
"Oh, I was negligent. After glancing at Luo Sheng's nose, the person who came smiled and said, "Let me introduce myself, my name is Lunnon, one of the editors of "Exploration", and I came to Luo Sheng to discuss the matter of discussing the essay reward. β
"The junior Luo Sheng has seen the master. Luo Sheng bowed slightly and said very respectfully.
Although in his previous life, Luo Sheng had dealt with this Master Lunnon, who was basically not out of the Island of Truth, and the two sides had a relationship of equal generation, but now that the other party was already a gold-level mage, and he had just stepped into the bronze level, his posture was naturally more humble.
"Hehe, others call me a master, and I recognize it. But Luo Sheng, you call me that, I don't dare to take it seriously! With the level of your paper, I'm afraid it's not much worse than a master like me. The paper said with a smile.
"The master has won the prize. Luo Sheng responded indifferently. Although he is very confident in his thesis, Luo Sheng is not enough to take other people's politeness as the truth.
"I'm not just polite, but my teacher's comments on your paper. Seeing Luo Sheng's expression, Lunnon said with a slight seriousness.
"Is it Your Excellency the 'Dominator'?" Luo Sheng was slightly stunned, an indifferent face flashed in his mind, and when he looked at Lunnon again, a trace of understanding flashed in his eyes.
Lennon's teacher, Maximilan, one of the eight legendary mages of the Nine Rings White Tower, is a powerful existence close to the immortal level in the future. Even when Luo Sheng was in his heyday, he didn't dare to say that he could beat him.
In addition to being extremely proficient in various spiritual magics, this ruler also has an important research direction, which is the production of physical golems. And this research can be used in many places to use surgical techniques and concepts, so it is not surprising that he values his thesis.
As a disciple of Maximi, even if Lennon no longer likes to go out and activities, the teacher has orders, and he can only come all the way to find him.
"It seems that Luo Sheng, you do know quite well about the situation on the Island of Truth!" Lennon said with a smile, "The main task of my visit this time is to summon the teacher, and he hopes to invite you to participate in his research. β
"I'm afraid I'll have to ask you, Master, to help me say sorry for His Excellency the Dominator. Luo Sheng frowned slightly, but he still said politely.
"Hmm, Luo Sheng, you have to think clearly, this is an invitation from a legendary mage!" Lunnon was slightly stunned, and then said in disbelief. The opportunity to be invited by a Legendary-level mage to participate in experimental research is an extremely rare learning opportunity even for gold-level mages on the Isle of Truth, let alone for ordinary spellcasters. But this is enough to make countless people covet the opportunity, but Luo Sheng lightly refused.
"I understand. Thank you, Your Excellency, for your attention to me, and thank you, Master, for all the way to summon me. Luo Sheng said with a solemn expression: "But I think my rank is too low to join the research team of His Excellency the Dominator." β
Looking at Luo Sheng's solemn expression, Lennon couldn't help frowning.
To be honest, although Lennon didn't dare to oppose his teacher's decision, he was still a little unconvinced about inviting a little druid of the Black Iron Order to join the research program. So after rushing to Cook Town, Lennon did not immediately ask Luo Sheng to meet, but conducted an investigation first, wanting to see if Luo Sheng's real situation was really worthy of his teacher's evaluation.
After some investigation, Lennon basically recognized Luo Sheng's qualifications and abilities, and also found Rem who was peeping out. In order to further determine Rasen's true strength and also want to take the opportunity to settle a favor with Rasen, Lennon gave Rem a chance to assassinate through Old Kidd and directed the previous battle.
After watching a scene, although Lennon regretted that he didn't have the opportunity to save Luo Sheng, he also fully recognized Luo Sheng's ability. When he sent an invitation to Luo Sheng again, he was no longer dissatisfied, but full of sincerity.
But what Lennon didn't expect was that the task that he thought was about to be completed actually had unexpected twists and turns in the end, and Luo Sheng, a little druid who had just advanced to the bronze rank, actually refused the invitation of the legendary mage. How to deal with it next is a bit of a headache.
"Master Lennon, this is my prepared paper. All the methods, concepts, conjectures, and ideas of surgical treatment have been recorded in these papers, and I ask the master to help me review them, and then submit them to Exploration, hoping to get comments from His Excellency the Dominator. Seeing Lunnon's frowning brows, Luo Sheng took out the paper that had been prepared and handed it over with both hands.
Although the White Tower of the Nine Rings is known as the land of order, it does not mean that these mages with extraordinary powers are really people who strictly abide by the rules. Maximi, in particular, studied spiritual magic and physical golems, both of which are not very mundane projects. It would be naΓ―ve to expect such people to follow the rules. In order to achieve their ends, these people do not mind using some coercive means.
In order not to be directly plundered by the other party, and in order not to stiffen the relationship between the two parties, after rejecting Lunnon's invitation, Luo Sheng immediately offered what the other party needed with both hands. The reason why Maximilian is interested in himself is that he needs these knowledge and ideas in his head. Only after these are offered, can the other party let go of themselves.
Slightly surprised, he took the paper handed by Luo Sheng, and Lunnon was not polite, and after a light operation, he began to read the paper provided by Luo Sheng. This is not only related to the task assigned by Maximi, but also the habit of the mage. After all, for a true mage, it is definitely a great pleasure to be able to learn new and curious knowledge that is useful to him.
The first two papers Lennon flipped through relatively quickly, after all, many of them were also studied by Maximi, but they were not from the same perspective as Rosen's. With an otherwise strong foundation, it's still easy to digest these things.
But when Lennon began to read the following theories and conjectures related to endocrine, hormones and other subtle substances in the body and the principle of action of healing spells, his speed slowed down unconsciously. Later, I even had to think about it for a long time before I sighed and flipped through the next one.
"Luo Sheng, you have to think clearly, with these papers of yours, after going to the Island of Truth, the teacher is likely to directly take you under the disciple and become a disciple. Are you really ready to give up such an opportunity?" After spending more than an hour and reading a few papers roughly, Lennon said to Luo Sheng in a serious tone.
If it was said that Maximi had commented that Luo Sheng had the theoretical level of a gold-level mage, Lennon thought that the teacher valued Luo Sheng's potential, but after reading Luo Sheng's papers, Lennon had confirmed that Luo Sheng had indeed reached the master level in terms of human body research, and was even much stronger than himself.
Although he didn't know why Luo Sheng had such amazing achievements at such a young age, Lennon was sure that Luo Sheng definitely had two sons to become the teacher's research assistants, so he sincerely sent out an invitation again.
"Thank you for your attention. Still, I stand by my opinion. Other than these papers, I have been of no other aid to His Excellency the Dominator's research. And I have a plan for my future path, and when I have been on my own for a while, I have accumulated more and need to really advanced learning, I will take the initiative to go to the Island of Truth to study. Luo Sheng responded very sincerely.
"You're so stubborn!;" Looking at Luo Sheng's determined expression, Lunnon said helplessly.
To tell the truth, when Luo Sheng refused, Lunnon had plans to forcibly kidnap Luo Sheng. After all, compared to the opinion of a bronze boy, the will of the legendary mage of Maximan is more important. In order to fulfill the teacher's instructions, it is also possible to use some extraordinary means. After all, this is also for the good of Luo Sheng.
However, after reading the paper provided by Rasen, Lennon's mind changed subtly. Luo Sheng, who can directly come up with a paper of this level, as long as he does not die in the future, will almost inevitably step into the golden level, and there is a great possibility of impacting the legendary realm. For this kind of young Tianjiao, who is destined to stand side by side with him, if he uses violent means again, it may be nothing now, but it may be a big trouble in the future.
And Luo Sheng has already taken out all the things that he and the teacher really need, even if he doesn't bring Luo Sheng back, these papers are enough to hand over to the teacher. So unconsciously, Lunnon had already extinguished the idea of forcibly taking Luo Sheng away and chose to compromise.
"Thank you, Master, for making it happen. Seeing Lunnon's expression, Luo Sheng's heart was relieved and he said sincerely. Although Luo Sheng believed that his response should be able to make the other party give up the idea of taking him away directly, he was not completely sure in his heart. It wasn't until Lunnon made a statement that Luo Sheng really put his mind at ease.
"Alright, the transaction will be done according to your previous request. I will take care of your father and your sister. The rewards for these papers will also be credited to you, what resources you want in exchange, you notify Old Kidd when the time comes, and I will arrange for someone to send it to you as soon as possible. Do you have any other requests? Since he decided to befriend Luo Sheng, Lun En naturally would not argue with Luo Sheng on other matters, and directly offered the best conditions.
"I don't have any other requirements, but I'd like to introduce someone to the Master. After Luo Sheng finished speaking, he turned his head and shouted down the mountain: "Lord Baron, please come over for a moment." β
