Chapter 457: With Liele

The Great Prophet Riel was a line taller than Siegel when he straightened up, and his gray-white eyes seemed to be suffering from some kind of disease, but they were actually out of phase caused by long-term observation of the river of time and fate. There was no joy or sorrow in his eyes, only that he was smiling from his expression.

"Finally, Archmage Mr. Siegel. Liel spoke first. His voice was low and magnetic, a combination of a strict teacher and a loving father, and like a kind old man telling stories to children. "I'm Liele, the Prophet of the Academy, and I'm glad to meet you before the Dwarven King's meeting. Your saga is widely circulated in the Mage Guild and the Academy, and I'm drafting a book dedicated to your upbringing. To be honest, after meeting you, I knew that you were much better than your previous Mage Lord. ”

"Listen to you, it seems that you have met the last mage lord?" Siegel asked curiously.

"Oh, with my naked eye? Of course not. However, when we wander in the river of history and pay attention to those important people and things in time, we will inevitably devote ourselves to it. I have always believed that the human spirit can become friends with the words in the book, and can communicate with each other even if they are separated by thousands of years. ”

Siegel agreed: "Looking back at the past to see the essence of the present and the light and shadow of the future, is this the secret of how to become a master of prophecy?"

"You are a very perceptive young man, and there is no denying that you are the most promising mage of our time. But you're only half right, predicting the future isn't that simple, and the luck it takes is actually more important than knowledge. Liele had a smile on his face, like a naughty child sharing secrets with his friends: "Oh, actually, a lot of the time I'm guessing. I'm lucky, though. Guessed right many times. So he became a master of prophecy. Don't tell them about it!"

"You're joking, Master Liel. Siegel scratched his head, then said, "I have a lot of questions about magic and prophecy that I want to ask you. ”

"You're Falanes's apprentice! the same temper as him! But you're not the soothsayer. From your eyes, I know that you like certain results and solid facts, but did you know that the world is not built on certainty and solidity? Come, young archmage, take me to the warm place inside. It's been a long time since you've been here. Do you know where you can sit down, stretch your legs, and banish the moisture from the sea?"

"This way, Master Liel, please. Siegel led the way and left the deck with the old mage.

There is no fireplace inside the boat, which is said to be to ensure that the air here is not too turbid. The dwarves are experts in the use of the earth element, but they are not very proficient in the air element, so the ventilation system here has been criticized. The two archmages found a remote room, presumably for some of the attendees who hadn't arrived yet. The rune lock on the door couldn't stop the two of them, and they strode inside.

"My nose always tells me the future: there's plenty of warm fur and comfortable seats. Liel looked around. Then he took Siegel by the arm and said, "Look, that flag depicts the heads of nine eagles." This room must be for the Wings. But although they have wings and fly fast, they are always late. I remember in the books that their ancestors, the giant eagles, always arrived at the end of the war, slower than the wingless dwarves, humans, and even halflings. So let's use the Wingman's room, they won't know. ”

Siegel smiled, "Maybe they'll thank us when they find out." The inside of the stone boat is so humid that the feathers and wings will be uncomfortable. With a snap of his fingers, he gathered the water elementals in the room, using the power of elemental convergence to transform them and begin to burn in midair. After burning, they turn back into water and drip into an iron basin.

"Interesting way to cast spells, so your attainment in elemental magic is as advanced as the legend suggests. Riele walked into the room, put the Archmage's Staff aside, and sat down on a comfortable "Bird's Nest" sofa. He twisted his body and let out a comfortable moan: "I can finally rest, a handful of old bones, after so long in the sea." Sit down Siegel, I think you have a lot to say. ”

But where to start? Siegel was still thinking about it as he sat down.

Riele looked at him with a smile, cleared his throat, and was the first to say, "Okay, Siegel, you just performed a wonderful elemental transformation ability, and I have to applaud you." And as a master prophet, people always think that I have the power of a prophet of the unknown, and although this is a misconception, I would like you to show you that. He closed his eyes, and a strange humming sound came out of his mouth and nose. But what he was reciting was definitely not a mantra, and the elements around him did not fluctuate in the slightest. What is this doing? Siegel couldn't see it at all.

After a full minute or so, Liel opened his eyes and said to Siegel, "Oh, I see the future and know what you want. The Federation and the Mage Guild, Heim Collar and the Academy. You want to exchange knowledge and mantras, to exchange understanding and peace. Archmage Siegel, I wonder if what I'm saying is correct?"

Siegel nodded: "That's what it means." ”

"I'm a member of the Academy and a member of the Mage Guild, so you're coming to me?Siegel, tell me what you want, what is it that keeps bothering you?"

A parchment scroll was taken out of Siegel's space bag, containing a list of spells and books that Siegel needed, and a list of books that were missing from the Federation's library. Master Riele took the scroll, looked at it carefully, and then took the "inexhaustible fountain pen" from his pocket and wrote and drew on it. The sound of the tip of the pen rubbing against the surface of the scroll was clearly audible in the silent room. Beyond the sound, only the breathing and heartbeat of two people remained.

The list was handed back, and Siegel began to read. As his gaze continued to descend, the hand holding the scroll tightened tighter and tighter. Most of the books and materials needed by those federations were marked with checkmarks, and all the high-level magic scrolls they needed were crossed out. Only two or three inconsequential spells, such as SMS Hint, Arctic Ice Ray, and Smash Palm, were marked with checkmarks.

Siegel put down the scroll. Look directly at Riehl: "Master." What does this mean when it's crossed out, and is there a need for the Mage Guild to provide it or do you need some other quid pro quo?"

"Oh. That is true. The Great Prophet squinted his eyes and said with a smile on his face: "As we all know, the Federation has just been reorganized, and the constitution and rules of procedure have been redefined. Did you know that although it is still called a federation, it can actually be treated differently from the previous federation? I know you want to start a new era and lead the survivors of the original Federation to rebuild on the ruins. But as far as the Mage Guild is concerned, you are a new organization, a new mage group that has not established a stable relationship with the Mage Guild. Before it was determined whether you would be able to contribute to the advancement of magic and the common well-being of the mages. You are in a sense unrecognized. ”

"Thank you for not saying we are an illegal organization. Siegel snorted.

"Where would there be illegal claims. Riele smiled, "The Mage Guild has never enacted any laws for mages. ”

"What about the agreements that were previously concluded between the Mage Guild and the Federation, and is the Guild ready to reneg on it?"

"Oh, I wouldn't use such a serious word to renounce, that would be too emotional. Riele waved his hand: "Please give the Mage Guild a process to judge the connection and inheritance between the new federation and the old federation." The Federation as we know it is a group of mages managed by the Archmage Triumvirate and headquartered in the Tri-Peaks Tower of Waterdeep. And you, obviously, formed on your own without any of the Big Three, so ......" he paused, and then said, "You can't call yourself a mage association, he's really a mage association, right?"

This is clearly an attempt to procrastinate. Suppress the development of the federation by controlling the way of the higher key spells. As more and more mages want to deepen their magical studies. When they needed more spells, they found that only the Mage Guild could provide them. In this case, wouldn't the Federation be more and more biased towards the Mage Guild?

"How long will it take for the Mage Guild to complete this judgment and re-honor the agreement with the Federation?"

"It depends...... Riele said with a smile, "Many archmages are busy, and your federation is so far away, how can you pay attention ......to it?"

"Unless what?" Siegel already frowned.

"Unless there is a Master who can go out of his way to study and live together in the Federation, then we will be able to deepen our understanding. Of course, you can also send mages to the guild. All mages are welcome to visit and learn!"

In the current state, if the members of the Mage Guild come to the Federation, it will definitely cause chaos within the Federation. The title of "Seeing Death and Not Saving the Mage Association" has not been forgotten, and the resentment has not been diluted, and the people of the association are not suitable for the appearance of this at all.

Moreover, the people of the Federation are busy with the construction of several magical works. Due to a lack of manpower, these projects are kept secret from the outside world, but no strict isolation measures are applied internally. If someone from the Mage Guild comes, they can easily see the blueprints of the Myrcan Core or the Chain Teleportation Array. Siegel manipulated the drawings of the Myr-Nucle in order to control the number and progress of the Myr-Nucle construction. But he wondered if it was worth it if it could be opened to the Mage Guild now.

Siegel put the scroll down, stood up, and walked to the cupboard in the room. He took out the wine and the glass, and filled it to Master Riele and himself. The aromatic taste is refreshing, but the bright red wine is like blood.

"This cup of wine wishes all mages good health and increased mana. Siegel smiled, easing the mood. He clinked glasses with Liele and took a sip before asking, "If I go to the Mage's Guild, can I look up some information according to the treatment of the Archmage?" Regardless of what you think of the new Federation, I am also a full member of the Federation, a disciple of the Doctor Faranis. ”

Riele shook his head, "I'm sorry Siegel, I understand your difficulties. But did you know that, as you said, the old Federation became history with the fall of the Three Peaks, and the new Federation will be rebuilt on top of the ruins, radiating even more brilliant and dazzling light? We admire and admire your courage and perseverance, and all we need is a little time to sort out the past before we can face the future. ”

So, to your question, the answer is clear. "You need to be sure of your mage status, either leave the new federation, belong to the old federation or become a member of the mage guild," Riele said. After that, the library will be open to you. (To be continued.) )
