Chapter 120: Rare Earth Resources
As an eighth-level magician, mastering the advanced magic of various types of magic is already a basic requirement.
Because of the study of magic machinery, Xu Yi's best magic now is wind magic, so what he is now showing to the great magician of Truchi is the high-level magic of wind magic and electric magic.
The essence of electric magic is speed.
It's not just the lightning fast magic itself, but also the fast casting of spells.
If you want to pass the assessment of the eighth-level magician, at least you must be able to do it without hindrance, and cast an eighth-level electric magic color star in a very smooth way.
And Xu Yi in front of everyone, not only successfully cast the three eighth-level electric magic spells of "Chain Lightning", "Thunder Boom" and "Grid Purgatory", but even the casting speed was extremely fast, and there was no stagnation in the middle.
Seeing him display these three spells, the surrounding magicians had both shocked and relieved faces.
The shock was naturally that Xu Yi really mastered the eighth-level electric magic so well, and the relief was that Xu Yi really had the strength of an eighth-level magician, which was the same as everyone guessed.
Only Bukalus looked at Xu Yi blankly, there was no relief on his face, only shock.
This young boy, who doesn't look like a magician, really has the strength of an eighth-level magician!
And he, Bukalus, is already fifty-two years old this year, but he is not confident enough to pass the assessment of the eighth level of magician.
Compared with Xu Yiyi, at his age, he is simply living to a dog!
Thinking of this, Bukalus sighed and quietly withdrew from the crowd. Prepare to take advantage of the fact that everyone is not noticing him. Leave on your own.
Xu Yi had already noticed him. Seeing his movements, he hurriedly shouted to stop.
As soon as Xu Yi shouted like this, the other magicians also discovered Bukalus's movements, and immediately understood Bukalus's thoughts.
Remembering what Bukalus had just said, the other magicians immediately began to laugh at Bukalus again without mercy.
Bukalus was disheartened at this time, but he was in no mood to refute them anymore, so he just glanced at Xu Yi and shook his head. I was ready to leave without hesitation.
Xu Yi grabbed him.
"Wizard Bukalus, it's rare to come here, if you go back like this, wouldn't it be a waste of opportunity?" Xu Yi said.
Bukalus looked at the sincere expression on Xu Yi's face, and wondered if this guy had become so good because he had been a businessman for a long time?
Doesn't he know that the reason why he is so hit today is because of him?
"It's a shame to stay here, and it's a waste of opportunity. Bukalus shook his head. shook his arm, trying to break away from Xu Yi.
Xu Yi firmly grasped his arm. Refusing to let go, he took a step closer and whispered in his ear: "It doesn't matter if you waste your chance, but do you want to waste the opportunity of the Duchy of MirandΓ³?"
Bukalus looked at Xu Yi in astonishment.
Xu Yi smiled slightly: "After participating in the assessment, I want to talk to you alone." I'm still interested in the Duchy of Mirando. If possible, perhaps our Chamber of Commerce and the Duchy of Mirando will change the lives of all the people of the Duchy of Mirando. β
Bukalus frowned and looked at Xu Yi for a while, but he couldn't see any fake look on his face, hesitated for a moment, and turned around.
Seeing that he had changed his mind, Xu Yi smiled and let go of his arm.
The voice of Xu Yi and Bukalus was very low, and Xu Yi could use wind magic to make sound insulation, and the magicians around him naturally didn't know what they said, but after seeing Xu Yi say a few words, Bukalus actually changed his mind and decided to continue to participate in the assessment, and couldn't help but be surprised.
Because Xu Yi came forward to keep Bukalus, it was not easy for the other magicians to sneer at Bukalus, so the next assessment went smoothly.
Half an hour later, everyone's assessment was over, and the three eighth-level magic spells that Bukalus used during the assessment were not particularly proficient, and he received a "very reluctant" comment from the great magician of Truchi, but in the end, he still let him pass the assessment, which immediately made Bukalus feel a lot better, so that when he and Xu Yi talked in private, a happy smile appeared on his face for the first time.
"President Xu, I communicated with some magicians just now, and I have some understanding of your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. I have to apologize to you for underestimating you and the New Flyer. Bukalus said sincerely.
Xu Yi was a little surprised, and hurriedly waved his hand: "This is not a big deal, don't take it to heart." β
Bucles nodded, and then asked, "However, President Xu, although judging from the introductions of others, your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce may really have the ability to change the lives of all the people of our Duchy of Mirando, but I have a question. Since you are a merchant, you must want to get some benefits from our Duchy of Milano, right? But our Duchy is small and there is nothing special, so what benefits can you get from us?"
Xu Yi shook his head gently: "Any person and place has its unique value, but it has not been discovered. The Duchy of MirandΓ³ may not be of any value in the eyes of many, but I know that there is a very unique and valuable resource in the Duchy of Mirando. β
"Really?" Bukalus looked at Xu Yi in confusion. "I've lived in the Duchy of Mirando for fifty years, how come I've never heard of anything like this?"
"That's because no one had discovered it before. Xu Yi said with a smile. "But I found this precious resource in the various samples brought back from the caravan I commissioned to the Duchy of Mirando, and that's why I wanted to cooperate with the Duchy of Mirando. It's just that there has never been a suitable opportunity before, and now that you, Wizard of Bukalus, have appeared, it is equivalent to God giving me this opportunity. β
"What do you mean?" said Bukalus with a frown. "I'm not the Grand Duke, and I can't decide anything in the Duchy of Mirando, so it's useless for you to look for me. If you want to cooperate with the Duchy, you should go directly to the Grand Duke, and I think the Grand Duke will be very welcoming to you and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. β
"That's right. But it's also important to have a suitable entry point. Wizard of Bukalus. You are the finest magician in the Duchy of Mirando. This is the best place to start. β
"I still don't understand what you're talking about, I don't know anything about business. Bukalus shook his head. "But if you want to figure out how I can contact the Grand Duke of our principality, then I'll be happy to help. β
"That's enough. Xu Yi paused, then pointed at Bukalus and said, "In addition to this scarce resource, in fact, Bukalus Magician, you are also a valuable scarce resource. β
Bukalus frowned, a little unhappy: "President Xu, I don't like such jokes. β
Xu Yi laughed: "That's good." No kidding. Wizard Bukalus, as the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, I sincerely invite you to join us in the Magic Research Institute of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce on behalf of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, are you willing to accept it?"
"Huh?" Bukalus looked at Xu Yi in amazement.
"Didn't you just say that you don't think the level of magic represented by the magic machinery produced by our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is very good?, then I think that with the strength of your eighth-level magician, there must be some other introductions, so I hope to invite you to our Chamber of Commerce to assist our Chamber of Commerce Magic Research Institute in conducting magical research related to magic machinery. β
Bukalus's old face flushed: "President Xu, are you still holding grudges?"
"No, no, no, I'm genuinely invited. Xu Yi hurriedly shook his head. "A powerful magician like you is the goal of our Chamber of Commerce. If you don't believe it. I can sign a contract with you right now. β
Bukalus glanced at Xu Yi suspiciously and thought for a moment. But he asked with some hesitation: "That...... I've heard that the magicians at your New Flying Chamber of Commerce's Magic Research Institute are well paid......"
Xu Yi smiled slightly, "If you choose to join our Chamber of Commerce, I think with your strength, you will soon become a senior researcher." Then the monthly salary will not be less than fifty gold coins. β
"Fifty gold coins!" Bukalus's eyes widened sharply, and after taking a deep breath, he pondered for a moment and nodded slowly. "Okay, I'll think about it. β
Looking at the back of Bukalus bowing his head and contemplating the departure, a smile appeared on Xu Yi's face.
Judging from Bukalus's reaction just now, he must have been impressed by the monthly salary of fifty gold coins.
If he really finally decided to join the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, Xu Yi would naturally be very happy.
Now among the researchers in the Magic Research Institute of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, in addition to the great magician-level magician Camilla, the strongest researcher is only a seventh-level magician, and the majority is a fourth- or fifth-level magician like Evita and Akali.
There is still a huge fault line between them and Grand Magician Camilla, which will make it difficult for many research tasks to be handled by the Magic Research Institute.
When it comes to the study of high-level magic arrays, it can only be completed by Grand Magician Camilla, and no matter how strong his magic strength is, his time and energy are limited after all, and he will definitely not be able to complete many research tasks at the same time.
And now the magic machinery researched by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is developing towards large-scale and heavy-duty, and it will often involve the research of high-level magic arrays, so the research strength of the Magic Research Institute will be a little thin now.
If Bukalus joins the Academy of Magic, he will undoubtedly fill this gap.
What's more, Bukalus can be used as a sign to attract other high-level magicians like him whose magic level is close to that of the Great Mage to join the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
Ringing out the invitation to join the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was rejected by several high-level magicians who had negotiated in the examination room just now, but Bukalus was obviously moved, and Xu couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
How poor is the Duchy of Mirando, even an eighth-level magician like Bukalus would be so tempted by the monthly salary of fifty gold coins a month......
If the Duchy of Mirandor had known the value of the scarce resource in their hands, they would not have fallen into such a poor situation.
Because this extremely precious resource, even on earth, is very rare, called rare earth. (To be continued......)
