The fief of the Marquis of Palazzo, the marquis's mansion.

4th Floor, Library Room.

"The words on which the magician constructs the magic array, in addition to ancient Raymond German, the other language is actually the dragon language?"

Based on his memory, Hodge looked through a book called "General Knowledge of Minority Languages", and after gradually comparing it, he found that another language above the magician's circle came from the dragon clan.

"In other words, the mage path is likely to correspond to the dragon path?"

"Hmm...... Wait, when Russell summoned the Ice Crystal Claw, he read the following sentences...... A mysterious being from the Void and the Underworld, a high-ranking deity greater than the starry sky, a magical dragon who controls the Elemental Storm......"

Hodge naturally muttered softly in the language of Salom, which was not linked to mystical powers, and he did not dare to recite such magical phrases involving the names of gods and spirits.

He didn't want to lose his life because he said a honorific name.

"The classic three-stage honorific name, I don't know that it corresponds to the god above the starry sky?"

"In the statement, there is a mention of a magical dragon who controls the elemental storm, this can't be some true god of the dragon clan, right?"

"No, no, no, it can't be, maybe the high-ranking gods are just a pronoun, referring to some kind of existence above the starry sky, if it is like a true god praying, asking for granting, even if there is only a little response, the summoned should be a complete ice crystal demon dragon."

Hodge shook his head and immediately dismissed the speculation.

The power of the true god, no matter what era it is, is the absolute overlord, and whoever becomes the true god can ascend to the throne, which is a truth that has been handed down through several ages.

"Forget it, let's not think about it for now, compared to this, I care more about the special symbol on the quaint gate in the mysterious space, what does it represent?"

"The side effects of the blood cup, making myself unconscious, nosebleeds, according to my father's explanation, I am too tired and mentally consumed, which may be one of the costs of using the blood cup."

"The mysterious space hides the secrets I traversed, the symbols on the quaint gates, which should be related to the items obtained, eh...... The symbol on the door corresponding to the blood cup reads......"

Hodge frowned, carefully recalling the images in the mysterious space, recalling the special symbol on that door.

"Blooddrop-like symbols, intertwined and covered with half-moon markers, the text on it is a bit like Latin distorted together in the previous life, and the introduction of this kind of text is probably only found in the secret door room of the library room, or on the bookshelf of my father's study."

Hodge remembered the symbols on the quaint door, stood up silently, and walked towards the deepest room in the library.

Hodge remembers that his father said that in the secret compartment of the library, there are books related to the occult, most of which are related to the mysterious world, and before you officially enter this circle, do not enter the room behind the secret door to prevent accidents.

"I can start preparing to take potions tomorrow, and now I can be regarded as entering this circle, so it must not matter."

With that in mind, Hodge walked over to the bookshelf in the deepest part of the library and gently twisted the bronze wolf-shaped statue on the fourth floor.

With a "click", the bookshelf was pulled open under the twist of the mechanism, revealing a dark passageway.

Without hesitation, Hodge picked up the magic lamp on the shelf and walked inside.

……

At the same time, on the first floor, in the small living room, Marquis Bach, who was sitting on the main seat, suddenly frowned.

"Will, go to the library room, the young master opened the secret door, some of the books in it are not suitable for his level to read, if he has an abnormality, stop his behavior and bring him over." Marquis Bach commanded softly.

"Yes, master."

In the shadows, a figure bowed its head slightly, and then disappeared without a trace.

After the figure disappeared, Marquis Bach raised his head, looked at a man and a woman in front of him, and said slowly: "I already understand the specific situation, and I did not detect O'Neill's change in advance, resulting in such a big mistake, you are derelict in your duties." ”

"Yes, Lord Marquis, we are ashamed, please punish you." The knight Besimor bowed his head in shame and whispered.

Russell also bowed his head and said ashamedly: "Lord Marquis, I am ashamed to have failed your trust, and I am willing to accept all punishments." ”

"This year's year-end bonus deduction, the weekly salary is reduced by 2 pounds, do you accept this punishment?" Marquis Bach looked at the two calmly, his tone tepid.

"Thank you for your kindness." The two respectfully responded in unison.

There was such a major mistake, and it almost killed the only heir, Hodge, such a felony, just to reduce the weekly salary and deduct the year-end bonus?

This kind of punishment is really too light.

This gave Russell and Bessemo a sense of being in a dream.

"Hodge said to me, you are desperate to protect him, there is merit, and you will be rewarded, but I think that the merit of your desperate protection of Hodge is only to make up for the previous mistake, and should not be rewarded."

"If Hodge had any damage, you wouldn't have been able to stand in front of me intact."

The Marquis of Bach still looked at the two of them, and his tone was unwavering, as if he was stating an objective fact.

Hearing Marquis Bach's words, the two of them trembled, and couldn't help but lower their heads, not daring to look directly into Marquis Bach's gaze.

This marquis, from an unknown civilian soldier, has been rewarded all the way with dozens of large and small military exploits, becoming the youngest marquis of the empire and the most dazzling new star of the empire.

However, after the award, the marquis actually turned around and married the daughter of a wealthy merchant?

This made countless noble ladies in the imperial capital secretly sad and disappointed.

The knight Besimo didn't know what level this marquis's strength was?

But through some information obtained from the Knight's Palace, he knew very well that in those battles, the Marquis was almost the dominant and the core figure who changed the situation of the war, and even some of the battles also changed the pattern of the entire Southern Continent, making the empire the first empire of the entire Southern Continent.

"Thank you for your kindness, thank you for the kindness of the young master."

The two spoke almost at the same time, sighing in a low voice.

"Since Hodge told me, I'll reward you."

Marquis Bach looked at the woman in the linen robe and said, "Russell." ”

"The subordinates are here." Russell hurriedly responded.

"You have merit in protecting the young master, and your reward is the main material of the magician path sequence 6 - magic master." Marquis Bach said lightly.

Hearing this, Russell trembled, and the whole person directly knelt down, and said excitedly: "Thank you for your generosity!" Thank you for your generosity!! ”

The main material of Sequence 6 potions, called the pituitary gland of the adult elemental demon dragon, is an extremely rare and extraordinary material, even if you go to the Magicians' Guild and buy it through the membership of the association, it will cost 2000 pounds, which is still no premium, if there is a premium, it is normal to float to 2500 gold pounds.

According to Russell's current salary of 35 pounds a week, if he wants to buy such an extraordinary material, he needs to work for at least more than a year without eating or drinking before he can afford it.

But this is only an ideal state, it is impossible not to eat or drink, refining potions, cultivating magic, repairing wands, and making all kinds of charms...... These need to burn money, and the magician is the business of burning money.

Taking Russell's own expenses as a calculation, it will take at least three years to make up 2,000 pounds.

And as soon as the Marquis of Bach opened his mouth, he rewarded him with 2,000 pounds of extraordinary materials?

What is the reduction of the weekly salary compared to this reward? What deducts the year-end bonus?

What's that?

Is it okay to not feel pain at all?

Russell was deeply impressed by the generosity of the Marquis of Bach!

Bessimo on the side was also excited, and gave Russell a reward of more than 2,000 pounds, so he, the second person in charge?

Wouldn't it be more?

As if sensing Besima's thoughts, Marquis Bach glanced at him and said slowly: "As for you......"
