Chapter 16: The Magic Test
Early the next morning, Gu Ayayue took Yi Mo to the Mercenary Guild in the Imperial Capital to prepare for a magic test.
The Imperial Capital Wolong City Mercenary Guild is the general meeting of the Tenglong Empire Mercenary Guild, located on the West Street of Wolong City. Normally, anyone can apply for a registration task in the Mercenary Guild, so that those who are magical fighting professionals can claim it and complete the task, and of course, the corresponding rewards are essential.
The Mercenary Guild also has another role, which is to test magic and combat power. Anyone on the continent who wants to become a magician, samurai, or other profession must first come to the Mercenary Guild to test their magic power, and then decide whether to continue with the combat power test according to the situation, because if they can choose between a mage and other professions, most people choose a mage first. Therefore, whether it is an elemental body or not directly leads to whether the test is passed or not, if it is not an elemental body, then it cannot be employed as a combat profession, and can only engage in business or do something else.
For the people of the Creation God Continent, it is an honor to be employed as a combat professional, because less than 40% of all people can become a combat professional. Among the combat professionals, it is another kind of luck to be able to become a magician, because of the remaining less than 40% of the people, only about 5% can become a magician.
Although the magic elements on the continent are not very rare, but there are not as many as imagined, only people who can sense the fluctuations of magic elements, and people with enough magic power can become magicians, even if you can sense the fluctuations of magic elements, but you don't have enough magic power, then you can't become a magician, you can only become other professionals.
This stark difference leads to the fact that the magician is the most respected profession of all, and of course, the other professions of the high cultivator are equally respected. Because this is a world of the jungle, without enough strength, it can only be washed out of the torrent of history, will not leave a trace, only those who are really strong, can become people's heroes, people worship the object, and it is precisely because of this that human beings believe in the gods, need to get power from the gods happen.
It didn't take long for Yi Mo and Gu Ayayue to come to the Mercenary Guild, because there was a very conspicuous sign above the guild, a symbol that everyone on the mainland knew - a magic wand and a one-handed sword cross.
"Hello, we're here to test our magic. Yi Mo said to the old man who had been dozing off at the counter all morning.
The old man didn't seem to hear Yi Mo's voice at all, and was still lying on the table, did he still hear the man's snoring.
Yi Mo politely called out again, but the other party still snored like thunder.
"Hello, we're here to test our magic. This time, Yi Mo used a little bit of true qi and spread his voice out, targeting the man's ears.
How could the "sleepy bug" stand Yi Mo's hand, and immediately bounced up from the stool, where did he still feel the slightest sleepiness at this time!
"What rabbit cub is roaring and screaming here, my ears are almost deaf! How can this be true, how can this be reasonable!" The old man's squinting eyes suddenly widened, and he looked around to find the culprit, and after shaking his head, his gaze finally fell on a man and a woman standing not far from him.
"You're the one who disturbed my old man's rest, right?" the old man asked.
"I'm really sorry, we called you several times, I guess your old ears may not be very good, so, I'll ......" Yi Mo said very "politely", but when it came to the second half of the sentence, he showed a rather helpless expression and spread his hands.
The old man didn't seem to intend to continue talking about this matter, and said a little impatiently: "Okay, okay, my old man has a lot of them, forget it! ”
"He's going to test his magic. Gu Ayayue said.
Seeing Yi Mo nodded, the old man said, "In this case, you can follow me into the inner room." With that, he walked inside.
The two followed the old man all the way, and after turning a few corners, they came to a room, and the old man said, "This is the inside, little girl, you can stay outside." ”
"Why can't I go in?" asked Gu Ayatsuki curiously.
"You're already a magician, so you don't have to test your magic anymore, do you? The old man said.
"Ayatsuki, you just wait outside first, I'll be out soon. Yi Mo gave her a reassuring smile and said.
"Okay, come on!" Gu Ayayue tilted her head, clenched her little fist and pursed her lips with a smile.
"I will. ”
Yi Mo said goodbye to Gu Ayuki for the time being, and as the old man entered the room, he found that it was empty and there was nothing.
"Old ...... Old man, why is there nothing in the house?" Yi Mo wanted to be called "old man", but he thought that the later test was still in the hands of others, so he said to him in a very polite tone.
"This is the place to test the magic power, why do you need so many other things?" he said, waving his hand, and a translucent crystal ball the size of a basketball appeared in his hand.
Yi Mo looked at this scene and deliberately exaggerated and said, "Wow, old man, you should have reached the realm of the Great Magus, right?
The old man seemed to be very useful, and then laughed, thinking to himself, today I actually met a fool, and I actually thought that he was the Great Magus. I think back then, when I first became a magician, I was also striving for this goal, but now 50 years have passed, and I am still just a great magician, and it is really embarrassing to say it!
The old man returned to a serious appearance, waved his hand, and said with a solemn face: "Low-key, low-key, although I am a great magician, but I like this job of testing the magic of others, don't call me my true identity in front of people when I go out, in private, you can call me that, low-key know, low-key!"
The old man's heart was happy for a while, and he felt more and more that the young man in front of him had a bright future, and said: "Don't call me old man in the future, it will look like a raw thing, you can call me the Great Magister Jimson, of course, this is in private, you can call me that......"
Yi Mo almost didn't laugh out loud, holding back his emotions, and pretending to be flattered and starry-eyed, he said, "Oh my God, I actually guessed right, oh my God, I actually met the legendary Great Magus!"
"Alright, alright, let's start testing now, just put your hands on this magic tester. The old man Jimson said with satisfaction.
Yi Moyiyan put his hands on the tester, but the tester did not react in the slightest.
"Grand Magister Jimson, why isn't the tester responding?" Yi Mo asked curiously.
The old man Jimson also wondered, he has been working for more than 20 years to test magic, and he has never encountered this situation, if the tester has magic, then the tester will show the color of the tester's elemental body, if the tester does not have the slightest magic, then the tester will also show the color of chaos and chaos, why did this kid not react in the slightest after putting his hand on it?
The old man Jimson approached Yi Mo and looked at the tester for a while, but he still couldn't see anything unusual.
"Grand Magister Jimson, is the tester broken?" Yi Mo asked suspiciously.
"Impossible, impossible, how could this tester break down so quickly!" Old man Jimson's head was already sweating, he actually had this idea in his heart, but he didn't dare to face it, you must know that this tester was a second-hand thing that he bought by deducting nearly 1/3 of the money from the guild to buy the instrument, if it really broke down so quickly, wouldn't his own affairs be exposed? Then the hard-won job is estimated to be unable to be saved......
No way, I'll try it myself, the old man thought to himself. Just as the old man was about to put his hands on the tester, his movements suddenly froze, and he pretended to cough, and the old man pretended to be calm and said, "Let, let the little girl outside come in and see if the instrument is broken." ”
He didn't dare to test it himself, if he tested it himself, and found that the magic power was impure and the magic power was very small, then didn't he poke it out for himself just now that he was a great demon master? The old man felt that he was a little dizzy, why was there so much trouble today!
Not long after, Yi Mo called Gu Ayayue, and Jimson asked Gu Ayayue to put her hand on the instrument, but he felt that his heart was about to jump to his throat.
At the moment when Gu Ayayue put her hand up, the originally spacious room was suddenly shrouded in a burst of red light! Jimson looked at everything in front of him in surprise, this little girl's magic power is so strong, and her future is infinitely bright! Jimson thought. But then he smiled, laughing so happily, even if she could test, didn't that mean that there was no problem with his tester?
After settling down, the old man Jimson shouted to Yi Mo as if questioning: "Boy! It must be your problem! I don't see that other little girls can test it! I'm angry with my old man!"
"I have a problem, what's the problem?" asked Yi Mo strangely.
"That's it...... That's it, it's just that there is a problem, my old man has never encountered a problem like yours for so many years, how do I know what the problem is!" said the old man's angry beard.
"That's it, Ayatsuki, you can teach me a fire-based primary magic now, and I'll see if I can send it out, okay?" Yi Mo came up with one last solution.
"Learn now, sell now, but...... But cultivating magic is not something that can be practiced overnight, especially if you have never studied magic until you release your first magic. Ayatsuki asked worriedly.
"It's okay, I'll do my best. Yi Mo was not worried at all, he was very confident in himself.
"Alright then, I'll start chanting the incantation. Gu Ayayue said, "O great god of fire, please listen to the call of your servant and give me the great power of the god of fire to destroy everything!" Thinking of this, a fireball the size of a basketball appeared in Gu Ayayue's palm.
"At the beginning, you have to recite spells, and then after you really become a junior magician, you don't need spells to use fireball magic, Xiao Mo, you concentrate and guide the magic elements into your own hands to try. Gu Ayatsuki added.
