Chapter 197: Expanding Influence
After listening to Lin Feng's words, Carrido thought about it, it was also the same truth, and although Lin Feng didn't say anything, Carido also knew that Lin Feng's status was also different from the past.
He is now a field viscount, in addition to the ancestral hereditary territory of Nanlin Island, he also occupies half of the territory of Jinyue County and a black rock territory of the Orc Empire, in terms of the area of this territory, it is almost the same as an old hereditary marquis.
The real power aristocracy plus the fifteenth-level archmage, Lin Feng, who has both identities, his influence is not as simple as one plus one. As Lin Feng said, as long as the super professionals at the top of the continent don't intervene, how many of the opponents of the same level can mobilize more resources than Lin Feng?
Austin Ben, the head of the Mage Guild's branch in Golden Moon City, is also a level 16 magician, after receiving the news from a mage in the Sunset Peak Mage Tower, he immediately came to Nanlin Island and visited the new Callido magician.
Although everyone was a sixteenth-level magician, Austin Ben could still tell the difference between him and Carrido, "I'm not his opponent! Sure enough, he's still the same Carrido who was hailed as a super genius more than thirty years ago, well, with such a long time of accumulation, it seems that he may be promoted to another level at any time and become a seventeenth-level magician." ”
"Fortunately, the union headquarters also sent back the news in time, for Carrido is still mainly to woo, indeed, if he is just a new magician, then he is not worthy of the special care of the union headquarters, but, in addition to this identity, he is also a 'grandmaster-level' pharmacist! How many grandmaster-level pharmacists are there in the whole continent? Moreover, that day is getting closer and closer, and now is the time when talents like him are needed!"
At about the same time, the president of the branch of the Pharmacists' Guild in Golden Moon City also came to Nanlin Island, and like Austin, he also received an order from the Pharmacists' Guild headquarters to win over Carrido, not only that, but the union headquarters also specially told him, "In addition to Callido's magician, his student, Viscount Golden Rose, is also on that list." ”
......
In the banquet hall of Sunset Castle, the promotion banquet of Callido Magus that had been delayed for a week was finally about to start, low-key luxury was the mainstream of this banquet, in order to show the strength of the Golden Rose, Lin Feng had spent a lot of effort to organize this banquet, and even, he secretly got Garvis here and asked him to plan this banquet, in this regard, Garvis said, "Piece of cake!"
As the guest of honor, the president of the Mage Guild Branch and the President of the Pharmacist Guild Branch, they had visited each other in advance to communicate the news, and when they had the same goal, they were also very cooperative with Lin Feng and Kalido's arrangement, and in the eyes of outsiders, their behavior also dispelled the careful thinking of some people with ulterior motives.
The banquet that was most likely to be attacked in public passed so calmly, and in this regard, Lin Feng and Carrido also felt a lot more settled in their hearts, since the mage union and the pharmacist union were so obviously courted, then they would be more sure about the next division of interests, of course, Lin Feng and Carrido were also ready to return the favor and transfer part of the benefits to the mage union and the pharmacist union.
However, Kalido was not interested in participating in the subsequent negotiations on the division of interests, he just made a name for himself as his student, and after Viscount Golden Rose would represent him with full powers, he hid in the Sunset Peak Mage Tower, well, "If you have that time, why don't you teach these junior disciples in the Mage Tower?" he said to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng did not live up to his expectations, and successfully helped Carido "earn" back a mage tower, when he was building the Sunset Peak Mage Tower, Carido threw in some of the rare materials he had accumulated before, and he was still worried about how to build his own mage tower, but now it's okay, the mage union and the pharmacist union are considered to have a heavy hemorrhage, and directly "sent" him a magister-level mage tower.
Of course, Lin Feng also sought a small benefit for himself, that is, his Golden Rose Viscount had the power to form a legion of no more than one thousand mages, which was a power that only hereditary field dukes had.
Moreover, since this kind of review power for the formation of the "Mage Legion" is in the hands of the Mage Guild, even the hereditary dukes want to apply for the formation of the Mage Legion, but if you don't have any great merit for the Mage Guild, the Mage Guild will not risk offending the imperial family to give you this kind of power.
As far as the Auror Empire is concerned, in addition to the Imperial Academy of Magic, there is a mage corps directly under the empire, that is, the "Imperial Iron Wall" Prince Cameron has a mage legion, of course, the mage corps is generally not allowed to participate in the imperial civil war, and their existence is more like a strategic deterrent.
When Lin Feng applied for the formation of the mage legion, he also stated that he would not use them in the civil war, but, "It's a big deal that I will send them all to the Black Rock Territory, or transfer them to Rose Newtown to fight against the bear monsters, this against foreign races, it should not violate the ban on the use of the mage legion!"
After obtaining these two benefits, Lin Feng handed over the dominance of the distribution of "wisdom elixirs" to the Mage Guild and the Pharmacist Guild, the former was responsible for the quota distribution of finished elixirs, and the latter held the right to review patents.
This is also Lin Feng's cunning, with this convenient condition, he and Kalido's mage tower will definitely not lack reserve talents, and the competitiveness will be greatly increased.
No, as soon as he sent off the branch presidents of the two trade unions, Lin Feng encouraged his teacher Carrido to go to Rose New Town to help him take care of the Blackstone Mage Tower, and before he came back with Tailanya, Lin Feng moved the Blackstone Mage Tower to the hill outside the port area of Xinzhen, not to mention, from a distance, it was another super luxurious "lighthouse".
Junior Mage Old Yuri, it was the first time he had seen the Blackstone Mage Tower, Carrido just told him that it was the spoils that Lin Feng had obtained in the Secret Realm Ruins, but he didn't say much to him, but even so, Old Yuri was also very moved, "This is treating me as his own, well, maybe, I can also mix the title of Lord under Lin Feng!"
Old Yuri also knew that with his magical talent, this life would be like this, but for the sake of his children and grandchildren, he planned to fight again! After all, he had a good relationship with Lin Feng, as long as he could make some reasonable contributions, presumably, Lin Feng would not be stingy with a lord's title.
