Chapter 0100: Inner Ring
'Arcane? ’
When Su Lu heard this, he suddenly felt a thrill and felt the advent of the power of the contract.
'Polygraph? Word and Spirit Contract? ’
He thought for a moment, and his face did not move at all: "I am willing to join the inner ring of the Green Tree Castle, follow the principle of equivalent exchange, and safeguard our common interests." ”
"Very well, I'll nominate you!"
In fact, ordinary newcomers need to be introduced by two members of the inner ring, and if it is someone from the Green Tree Council who holds the seat, a letter of recommendation is sufficient.
Sladen Walter had a good impression of Sulu.
At this time, it is a pity.
The [Arcanist] profession has its own peculiarities, and part-time jobs will form a very serious conflict of laws, otherwise he doesn't mind accepting another apprentice.
"Thank you, sir!"
Sulu didn't know that he had missed out on this apprentice, and bowed down happily and took a piece of signed paper.
"Welcome to the Inner Ring, the inventor of the telegraph, as long as you work hard, everything before is nothing." When Sulu left, Sladen Walter suddenly added, "Happy graduation trip!" ”
Sulu's expression was grim, and there was some cold sweat on his back, and he quickly returned to his usual state of expressionless face and walked out of the building.
'Found out my details so quickly?' ’
The last sentence of the ninth seat definitely meant something.
Of course, knowing the destination of his graduation trip, and knowing that he is a transcendent member of the [Medium] department, it is easy to relate to some of the events that happened in Port Posey.
It's possible that it's just speculation, but for Fort Greentree, it's nothing. ’
Sulu thought about it, he hid his identity at that time, and he didn't directly conflict with the Federation, he was just an extraordinary person in the wild, and he wasn't a big fish.
With the 'value' it has shown so far, it is enough for the Greencastle Laboratory to keep itself.
This is the reality, even if it is a chess piece, it must be the most valuable one! ’
Because the more valuable you are, the less likely you are to be discarded. ’
Sulu took a deep breath and looked at the scenery outside.
From now on, his identity is different.
……
The Greentree Castle Laboratory is very large, and the institutes are located all over the city of Greentree Castle.
But the real heart of it is located in the suburbs.
A few days later.
William personally called an internal carriage and carried Sulu to the southern suburbs, driving on a remote and special road.
All around, there are green trees, and although it is not early morning, there is still a hint of white mist.
"This road is not marked on the map, and it is the only way to get to the inner ring."
William saw Sulu looking out the window and explained: "Checkpoints are set up along the way, and martial law is imposed by the standards of military installations, which is enough to block the prying eyes of ordinary people. ”
"So...... What about the transcendent? ”
Sulu noticed that Professor William seemed to have the intention of continuing to ask, so he followed the question.
"The transcendent ones rely on the 'lock'."
William pointed to the fog that was getting thicker and thicker around him: "The so-called 'Mystery Lock' is a large magic circle arranged by the [Arcanists] of the inner ring, which has the comprehensive effects of protection detection, spirit manifestation, spell invalidation, super magic strike, and so on. Oh, the Arcanist is an advanced level of the Apprentice, and one of the transcendent legacies of the Inner Ring, and with your points, you can gain relevant knowledge in the White Tower. ”
Sulu didn't speak, watching the carriage disappear into the white mist.
A slight sensation of electric shock swept through his body, letting him know that he had entered a certain formation.
After a few more minutes, the vision in front of me suddenly opened up, and an ancient academy emerged.
The academy is surrounded by high walls covered with green vines, and in the center stands a tall white tower.
On top of the stone buildings, various traces of time remain, bringing a deep sense of history.
"Get out of the car!"
William led Sulu through the main entrance of the academy, where two rows of gargoyles stood, into the inner ring.
……
"After the recommendation of Lord Sladen Walter, you have officially become a member of the inner ring of Greentree Castle, and your current rank is 'Futaba'!"
In the ceremonial hall, an old man in a white robe, his hair almost falling out, and his face wrinkled into furrows, handed Su Lu a robe.
On top of the robe, there is also a coat of arms formed by two green leaves.
These two pieces can be regarded as magical items, Sulu sensed it slightly, and found that the robe was average, only a constant cleaning effect, and it could be maintained for several years.
The green leaf badge has a marking function, and there is also an information display inside, with a number of 500.
'Only the outer ring needs point tokens, but in the inner ring, the points are directly digitized...... The degree of intelligence is very high...... No, it's not technology, it's the use of mysterious legal abilities! ’
Sulu understood at once.
Of course, tokens and data can also be converted, for example, the fifteen tokens in his hand can be turned into numbers in the badge, increasing it to 515, and binding to himself, which cannot be used by outsiders.
He put on a robe and wore a green leaf badge, feeling as if he was in ancient times, performing the inauguration ceremony of a magician.
"May the Arcane be with you!"
At the end, the white-robed old man held a branch and sprinkled water on him to express his blessing.
Walking out of the door, Sulu saw William waiting on the side with a smile: "How is it?" Feels classical, right? ”
"Yes."
"Actually, this ceremony has been simplified a lot, and then I'm going to take you to familiarize yourself with the various areas of the inner ring and handle the onboarding."
Professor William said: "The inner ring is strictly managed by hierarchy, and your current authority is 'two leaves', and you can only go to the public area and a limited number of ......."
According to William, the members of Greentree Castle, according to the leaf on the leafy coat of arms, marked status.
From the lowest leaf, to the highest seven-leaf speaker, and this status level depends largely on the accumulation of points.
For example, getting a total of 100 points is the minimum condition for becoming a leaf, and 300 points can be promoted to a second leaf.
Next, the three leaves are nine hundred, and the four leaves need two thousand seven hundred points, with three as the base system, it is said that this comes from a certain speaker of the first generation, who declared that three is the law of the world - 'everything is three'!
With so many points, of course, it is impossible to rely entirely on scientific research, but to see the 'contribution' to the inner ring of the Green Tree Castle!
For example, Sulu, if the patent of the telegraph is also transferred to the inner ring, the points obtained will definitely be multiplied several times or even ten times!
"The entire inner ring is shrouded in a maze and is very safe...... And the White Tower is the core of the entire inner ring. ”
William led Sulu to the majestic White Tower.
The building was snow-white, and when he got closer, Sulu could even feel the extremely powerful mystical aura above.
"The ground floor here is a public library.,You need identity authentication to go up.,With your level of the second leaf,,You can access the content of the third layer at most...... In the White Tower, there are also many inheritances of transcendent professions, such as [Arcanist]! ”
William was a little pity: "But...... There are still too few who are self-taught, and I think you need a mentor! ”
