Chapter 118: Failure of the Argument
When An Shounong heard that the king had agreed to this request, or just with some money and alchemist's potions, he immediately felt angry in his heart, and the outspoken king made it clear that this would only leave hidden dangers and no benefit.
Before the king could speak, the noble officials were chirping in their ears like a flock of sparrows!
"Plitt, give me a pinch. An Shounong rubbed his eyebrows and said. For intimidating others, Plitt is of course the best at it.
"Your Majesty, doesn't the King think that using so much money and not having an alchemist potion in our country just to exchange a qualification to teach at Nas Academy is a very unequal exchange?
The king nodded, as if it made some sense, but today Edam could not go to court because of his ill health, and could not seek his opinion, so he didn't know whether he should agree for a while.
"Nonsense, as soon as the king's order comes out, how can there be a reason to take it back, our country has always been strong and strong, and there is a thriving magic culture, how can they be compared to the Kajiabao Empire? This kind of strategy to make friends can be explored by everyone, only you, an uncivilized old horseman, have this kind of conspiracy thought!" said an official in a righteous manner, and the people around him responded.
An Shounong sneered: "Use such means to make friends? Don't you think that the Cagabao Empire has lowered its stature too low? Although their magic culture is not as prosperous as ours, they have a more abundant and mysterious alchemist culture than our country, and besides, the Cagabao Empire, as a power of the same level as our country, has an ulterior secret no matter how you look at it. โ
An Shounong's theory was not supported, and the hall burst into laughter: "Alchemist, this kind of evil demon, you An Shounong actually called it a kind of culture, are you telling a joke?" It's just some weird potions, although they have some good effects but they are embarrassing and useful, such as explosives, how do you say it can be compared to the fire magic fire spear, and it is so difficult to manufacture, and it is expensive, it is just for the warrior team in the guild to use, such a useless alchemist, how do you think it can compete with our magic culture?!"
"Calm down, everyone, don't make a lot of noise. The king wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and sounded as if it was reasonable, and he was in a dilemma.
An Shounong bowed deeply, and said seriously: "Your Majesty, we really can't agree to the people of the Kajiabao Empire coming here to teach this time, there must be something greasy in this teaching, please think twice!"
A representative was sent from a group of people on the other side: "The king doesn't have to listen to An Shounong's one-sided words, he is just an old man who occasionally worries about the sky, there will be a conspiracy in this kind of obvious thing, not to mention that the other party has already said that the purpose is to learn the magic and formation of our country, but Lord An Shounong has been speculating on the hearts of others with words of punishment, which has a great damage to the friendship between the two countries, please think twice!"
The king looked at the left and right, there were only a few people on An Shounong's side, and on the other side, most of the officials such as the House of Nobles, and thought to himself: Under normal circumstances, it should be more reasonable to say that there are many people.
The king spoke: "Although what Lord An Shounong said has some truth, it is too ridiculous to be believed, and this matter is over, no one should mention it again." โ
"The king!" An Shounong wanted to speak again, but it was meaningless, the king didn't want to hear him speak anymore, An Shounong looked at the smug expressions of everyone on the other side, secretly hated that his teeth and mouth could not withstand the crowd, and he said that he was physically and mentally exhausted and said that he was sick and came back and lay on the bed, and his heart was relieved when he heard Charles's arrival in the afternoon, and he only hoped that he could get a big help as soon as possible.
"What does it have to do with her? According to me, that magician is an earth magician, and it shouldn't have much to do with you, do you know her?" An Shounon asked in confusion after listening to Charles's coming.
Charles nodded: "I know her, when I went to Walton Country, one of the magicians sent by the Cagabao Empire in the war against monsters was her, but she shouldn't know me." โ
Charles told An Shounon in detail about what he had done in Walton Country, except that the books he got from the little boy became the tattered books he picked up.
"I was especially concerned about her surprised look when she heard my name, but I couldn't have met her, so I wanted to ask the teacher for guidance. Charles said.
"Didn't you tell you to call me An Shounon... Forget it, as for the reason why she knows you, it's probably related to that book of yours. โ
"The book?"
An Shounong nodded: "You don't know, the Kagabao Empire is a country with a strong alchemist culture, your method may have attracted their attention, although I don't know why they will know your name, but nine times out of ten, the purpose of the Kagabao Empire is that book, that book has a value that we don't understand, you have to be careful." โ
Charles smiled: "As long as I don't approach her, if she approaches me, I just need to say that I don't know, and this matter will be solved." โ
An Shounong nodded, yes, it seems to be that simple. With An Shounon's understanding of Charles, he was also very relieved to understand it, and understood the reason for the Cagabao Empire, An Shounong felt a lot more comfortable, and leaned back in his chair with a comfortable smile and asked: "Charles, do you want to help me investigate this monster during the summer vacation, although it has been a lot calmer recently, but the reason is still understood." โ
"I'm sorry An Shounon, I'm going out with Mr. Giles to travel through the Empire, and although I have decided to accept your mantle, please find them elsewhere in this matter. โ
An Shounong didn't mean to force it, just asked casually, but when he heard what Charles Xia was going to do, he sighed and smiled helplessly: "Do you still want to maintain this relationship between teachers and students, even if its cause is so false?"
"yes, after all, he's a teacher. Charles replied with a smile.
It was almost night after Charles had chatted with An Shounon, and only a beautiful lace was left in the red blush of the sky. Back in the dormitory, Valen was holding a wooden board and carving something.
Charles leaned over and looked at it for a long time and didn't understand what kind of formation it was, could it be a formation above level six, but it couldn't be carved on such a small wooden board, could it beยทยทยทยทยทยท Charles looked at Valen, who was concentrating on Valen, in surprise, but he didn't expect that Valen had already begun to practice the composite formation.
After the last stroke was finished, Valen breathed a sigh of relief and stretched his stiff waist and shoulders, and when he saw Charles standing beside him, he was startled and patted his chest and said: "Charles, don't you appear next to me like a ghost, okay, people are scary and scared to death." โ
"I didn't appear out of nowhere, I've been standing for half a minute and you haven't noticed me, it's the first time I've seen you so serious, is this a compound formation?"
Valen listened to Charles's words, his expression stiffened, and he shook his head with a bitter smile: "I think it's a mistake to leave you in suspense, yes, this is the compound formation, Mr. Clive said that before making a real compound formation, you can first try to make some compound formations that can only allow the smooth circulation of spiritual power, so that the formation is very helpful for deducing the formation." โ
"Then there is no other use for this compound formation?" Charles asked, taking the block from Valen's hand. Looking at the lines on it, it obviously feels no different from ordinary formations, but it is really incredible that it can exert such a terrifying effect on such a small area.
"This Clive teacher said not necessarily, but most of the experimental compound formations are in danger of exploding, and they must not be easily injected with spiritual power. โ
"Charles, do you want to learn? I can leave it to you. Valen said triumphantly.
"I?!, will Mr. Clive let me learn too?" Charles asked, his eyes wide.
"Of course, Mr. Clive said it himself, and I don't know why Principal Clive has a particularly good impression of you, Charles, have you done anything?"
Charles shook his head and looked dazed, not understanding why Principal Clive would let him learn.
"Charles, let me start by saying that it is very hard to use the spiritual power of a fifth-level magician to learn the compound formation, Principal Clive originally said that I would teach you when you are at the sixth level, but I want you to decide for yourself, Charles, what do you mean?"
"Of course it's now, it doesn't matter if such a magical formation is a little tired. Charles said excitedly, magic and magic are the few things that can excite Charles.
"That's good. Valen stood up, raised his head like a teacher, and asked, "Charles, when you look at the runes of the formation, do you think that each and every one of them looks like a little snake?"
Charles lowered his head and muttered for a while and said: "No, in fact, I think that although the formation seems to have undergone earth-shaking changes with each level of improvement, although the size, rune capacity, and drawing time have changed, but in fact, most of the runes in it are similar, according to my observation, at least the strengthening formation and the stagnant formation are only thirty percent of the runes are different, and the rest are almost repeated and duplicated." โ
Because Charles is not talented enough, he can only draw formations that are close to abuse, and Charles does not dare to say that he has learned this formation without drawing each formation thousands of times, and it is for this reason that Charles discovered some of the similarities.
