Chapter 384: The Clock Tower
The clock tower is one of the three strongest forces in the Magicians Association, and its headquarters is located inside the British Museum in London, and magicians from Western Europe will choose to join the clock tower on the ninth floor and above.
The Clock Tower is arguably the highest institution of learning in the world of magic. Although there are school rules, there are no laws of human society to bind it, and admission is subject to a magic test, and those who are invited by the association to enter the school can be exempted from the exam, and have the preferential treatment of bringing a relation. Those who are not affiliated with the association can also be admitted if they are recommended. Classes at the clock tower are conducted in such a way that you can keep up with them. Magic is almost always determined by family and talent. Therefore, there is no need to take the lecture seriously. It's a common practice for Clock Tower instructors to spread some information that could be used as bait, and then pick out some promising guys and take them as their assistants.
"Thou shalt be hidden" is one of the three principles of the association. This led to the rule that magicians (regardless of whether they belong to the guild or not) would be punished by the guild if they leaked their secrets to the general public.
The director of the clock tower is quite mysterious, it is said that he has lived for 2,000 years, and it is rare to see him show his face, as for the twelve monarchs of the clock tower, they are all nobles who have controlled the clock tower for nearly a thousand years, and have been providing funds and land for the clock tower since the beginning.
The clock tower divides the magicians into seven levels, which are, from highest to lowest:
Crown;
Brand;
Pride;
Sacrificial Seat (Fes);
Cause;
Count;
Frame.
The highest position of the magician is the Crown, and the lowest position is the Frame. However, it is common to think of the brand as the de facto highest bit. Most of the Lords have stopped there. The magicians who received the Grand evaluation are usually barely visible in the clock tower, and the group of people who have reached the deepest part do not interact with other magicians very much.
In Lin Jiang's memory, the lemon head is the color magician, second only to the existence of the crown, and the crown is probably the magic of the gem Weng Cangqi Tangerine and the like.
As for why it is a magician and not a magician, it is because ancient magic has been downgraded to magic in modern times, and what magic and technology cannot achieve is magic, because of the development of science and technology, human beings can do more things on their own, and magic has been downgraded, and now there are only 5 major laws left.
In the god generation where magic was active, all magic could be called magic, and it was not uncommon to call them "magicians" at the time.
Lin Jiang stared at the enthusiastic gaze of the pedestrians as he walked, thinking about how to enter the clock tower in a friendly manner and obtain the right to become a master.
"I almost forgot!"
Looking at the crowd gathering more and more around him, Lin Jiang immediately released a dispersal magic, and the people around him suddenly looked confused, scratched their heads and cheeks like monkeys, and left Lin Jiang's side aimlessly.
"Just go in like this, maybe Webb has an image of me......"
Lin Jiang suddenly stopped, there was a magical probe passing over him just now, which could be said to be fleeting, but for her, no matter how the other party hid, it was impossible to hide it from her.
The faint magic came from the cars whizzing by, and Lin Jiang had already seen the other party clearly through his white eyes.
Necromancer, Lion Raider, and Master of the Holy Grail War, commissioned by Rocco Belferbon, Minister of Science of the Clock Tower.
Just looking at his burly appearance, it is impossible to believe that he is a magician, let alone a necromancer, who is more of a gangster than a magician, and his face with three scars looks like a medal left by the gangsters when they were in a bloody battle.
"Who is she? What a horrible magic......"
The Lion Tribulation Realm looked at Lin Jiang who was far away from sight, and his heart was beating for a while, the magic full of ominous was undisguised, and followed him closely like an appendage, no matter how far he left, this magic power was already thick and not dispersed.
"Sir, here we are, the clock tower is here, thirty pounds in all."
The driver said to the big man with some fear.
"Oh, sorry, something got distracted."
The lion robber smiled reluctantly, paid the money and immediately walked into the clock tower, there is a huge magic barrier around the clock tower, reducing his sense of the huge magic power, I think the magician inside is not really aware of the horror of the witch outside at the moment.
The inside of the clock tower is very large, and the lion robber has managed to find the main owner, Rocco Belfebon, and the two are having a secret conversation in the office at this moment.
"In the Third Holy Grail War, a certain lord took the Great Holy Grail with the help of the German army, but now the Great Holy Grail, which had disappeared, suddenly appeared again, and it was still in Romania, in the hands of the Yug Domirenia family."
The Lion Raider only knew that the white-haired Minister Rocco had been in office for more than fifty years, but he had no idea how old he was.
"At the same time as announcing the possession of the Great Holy Grail, they also issued a declaration to break away from the Clock Tower and re-establish a new organization, and this Holy Grail War was started by that Darnik, just like announcing the establishment of their organization to magicians all over the world, in fact, it is to give our Clock Tower a disadvantage."
"So...... Do you want to entrust me to fight for you? As a Master? ”
Minister Rocco shook his head when he heard this, "It should be said that you are fighting as the master of the clock tower and the master of Danic's side. ”
"Huh? How does it sound a little wrong. ”
"It's really different from the ordinary Holy Grail War, in terms of numbers, there are seven people on our side, and there are also seven people in the place, and there will be a total of 14 masters and 14 servants to participate."
Minister Rocco pushed his glasses, "This is the hidden mechanism of the Holy Grail, when the seven Servants are unified into one, the Holy Grail will once again have seven Servants who are hostile to it from a distance. In order to ensure the normal progress of the Holy Grail War. ”
"Then there will be a total of fourteen servants, if there is a fight, ......"
Lion Tribulation frowned, so many servants to start a big battle is afraid that it will cause a lot of casualties, although he is a necromancer, but he is not the kind of monster that is similar to the skin and bones and dried corpses, and hates the living.
"You can rest assured that the Holy Grail War has always been fought in secret, not to mention the poor countryside of Romania, there will definitely be no shortage of liquefied gas."
Minister Rocco saw his concern and immediately offered comfort.
"Oh, by the way, this will be your reward, Hydra cub, and you don't have to worry about the holy relics as for them, we're all ready."
