Chapter 20: Admission is not easy

Gold's concealment skills were not very good, even if he didn't say it, Chen Qiguang could guess some of it with his expression.

In the final analysis, Chen Qi himself didn't miss it.

While joking that Gold wanted to cheer him up, Chen Qi was actually complaining about himself.

The reason why I chose to get involved in this matter is just to exchange a letter of recommendation for admission to the Magic Association.

The clock tower is the center of the Magic Association, and it can also be said that the Magic Association itself.

Located on the outskirts of London, it is a place where countless magicians want to enter the academy.

It encompasses countless knowledge, from the simple to the beginning, from the beginning to the achievement of a magic trick, and even the art of many disciplines, integrating and opening up a new way to become a master.

With the passing of the ages, the ocean of knowledge built by the magicians who continue to come to the world is to the extent that many magicians spend three lifetimes not learning it all, where both rookies and seniors can get enough progress in the magic path.

It can be said that every magician can find their place here and start working on it as a starting line.

However, the mystery of decline is limited, and it is not a book that can be studied at will, or a resource that can be taken at will, and the magician who cherishes himself is never willing to open his door to all magicians.

To enroll in the Magic Association, you need to pass an exam and pay tuition.

Those who are invited by the association can be exempted from the examination, and have the preferential treatment of free admission with one attendant, and those who are not from the association can also be admitted if recommended.

It seems very simple, but in fact, it is stuck in the magician whose family line is less than five generations.

The first way is to pass an exam to enter the Magic Association.

This is impossible for Chen Qi to complete, the reason is very simple, mystery is a secret thing, in other words, except for some corresponding private organizations, or schools such as the clock tower, there is no place for people to learn.

In the field of magic, it is very risky to join a private organization to study, which includes becoming an experimental assistant, sharing expenses, participating in dangerous projects far beyond one's ability, and even being directly sacrificed to death.

An apprentice with no background is a guinea pig, and he still has to have a certain background, or a large amount of money to get the qualification to be played, and the spiritual root qualification in the magic circuit cannot be too bad, if it is poor and has no background, go to the front of individual magicians, and it may be scattered into parts in the next second.

Who is not a poor magician, the manpower and material resources required to pursue the root are astronomical even for the top magicians, not to mention the low-level magicians below, and it is natural to exploit apprentices.

If there is a family inheritance, then of course such an exam is easy to say, but it is obvious that for a person like Chen Qi, it is impossible to read through most of the basic theories of magic and complete the entrance exam.

In an institution like the Magic Association, at least the foundation of the first generation must be paved before the second generation can be enterprising, and it will not take shape until the accumulation of several generations, and the amount of knowledge to pass the examination will be obtained.

In other words, the Magic Association has not considered the question of how to enroll in a grassroots who accidentally possess a spiritual root qualification such as a magic circuit, but are not born with infinite luck and carry an artifact.

Society is very cruel, and the same is true of the magic society, engaging in compulsory education is just a dilution of the already limited magic resources, and the benefits are almost non-existent.

Therefore, if Chen Qi wants to enroll, he can only try the second and third paths.

But the second path is not something that Chen Qi can take, for no other reason, Chen Qi thinks that he does not have a background that is enough to be invited by the clock tower to join, or the corresponding supreme talent, which is the channel used by the magic family with a certain accumulation and the appearance of atavistic geniuses.

Even if there is an occasional wild genius, because there is no corresponding background protection, at the moment of revealing his supreme talent, there is a high probability that he will encounter a 'seal designation' in the short term, and he will be directly permanently sealed as a specimen by magic, and at worst, he will be dismantled and soaked in formalin.

This is not Chen Qi's alarmism, but a tragic story that he observed from an object that happened in the past.

In this way, for poor students, the first and second roads are dead ends.

Many accidental awakened people who want to enroll in school are either forced to accumulate primitive capital to pave the way for the possibility of future generations enrolling in school, or they give up this magic road that is different from ordinary people and often does not end well, and pursue the happiness of ordinary people.

Only a very small number of people will try the third path that Chen Qi intends to take now.

That is, as a non-member of the association, after obtaining the recommendation of a magician with a certain strength background, he entered the clock tower as a civilian.

There is no free lunch in the world, everything is rewarded only if you pay for it.

Taking the initiative to be involved in the incident and taking the Garand rifle from John, Chen Qi planned to exchange his own ability for a recommended place to enroll, who would have thought that he had only found out an address and was about to explore more information, so he encountered the obstacle of Julius.

However, in about six hours, the dangers that Chen Qi encountered were enough to catch up with his usual amount in a year.

Before, Chen Qi didn't know that Gold would be in trouble, so he wanted to get the Garand rifle back, if he had known this, he would have just returned the rifle directly at this time, and he could easily catch Gold's line.

Not to mention getting a recommendation letter for admission directly, but with a relationship of knowing each other, you only need a certain exchange to help do something, and admission should be a sure thing.

But not now, it is obvious that after losing the Garand rifle, Chen Qi does not have the conditions to open the route on Gold's side at the moment, if he wants a letter of recommendation, he must at least get the rifle back to have room for communication.

In the final analysis, the skills are still inferior.

Without enough capital, Chen Qi would not take the initiative to collide with Julius head-on, which is why he laughed at himself.

Although Chen Qi didn't know the name of Julius, he knew very well that the other party was a master who had refined his will and physique, and his combat intuition was extremely amazing.

In dealing with such people, apart from frontal negotiations and battles, any luck mentality that tries to take advantage of it will only turn into the bitter fruit of failure.

The agent is not a good man and a woman, although killing people is not like eating and drinking, but it is not much.

"Speaking of which, you also offended a woman, that guy won't be as easy to talk as I am, so be careful." Gold, who was quite embarrassed himself, saw Chen Qi's embarrassed face, but sighed very sympathetically, and gave a friendly reminder, after all, Yoko's spirit in that restaurant before was not a joke.

Magicians should never be expected to obey the laws of the world, because rules are meant to be twisted or broken in the eyes of magicians.

"Huh?"

Chen Qi was stunned, he didn't remember that he had offended a woman, and the one who could make Gold speak would naturally not be an ordinary person.

Did he offend a female magician without even knowing it?

"Yoko Fernandez, the heir of a magic family in the East, she is the sister of the deceased Deacon in that case, but as long as you explain it well, she shouldn't be overly entangled......"

Speaking of the end, Gold, who is not very sure, his tone is slightly branched, he is not good at dealing with strong women, and when he encounters this kind of thing, it is usually his own maid who comes forward, and it is obvious that Yoko is not the type he can eat.

But he still likes this kind of strong and heroic woman.

If he could, Gold actually wanted to get some information from Chen Qi, save some impression points, and pursue it with the advantages of the family, so that with the power of the two families, it would not be a problem to block the next storm.

It's just that the clue on Chen Qi's side is broken, and there is nothing Gold can do.

Next, he estimated that he would soon have to take care of himself, and he said to Chen Qi that these were just talking about personnel, and he didn't have the idea of pressing the treasure.
