In Vann, the concept of a deep-sea mage always walks between the mysterious that is difficult to understand and the reality that can be touched in person.

On the one hand, deep-sea mages are indeed extremely rare, and their status and status are extremely high, they always stay in their mage towers to conduct research day and night, or change their appearance and name to travel or investigate in Fan'en.

On the other hand, some of them are extremely worldly, and the deep-sea mage Yatwicz who has taken refuge in the Black Sun Society is a typical representative of them - becoming the direct spokesperson of a god's faith, or forming a large society and being active as the main person in charge of the society for a long time.

In this case, the average person in Vanenri often has the impression of the Deep-Sea mages from the latter, but in fact, it is the majority of the Deep-Sea mages who are interested in magic and academic research and are willing to dedicate their lives to it.

The large elevator rose very quickly, and it didn't take long for it to slow down, and after a violent tremor, the elevator finally stopped, and Xiuge saw a regular translucent door slowly appear on a magical curtain wall directly in front of him.

"Here we are, Mr. Ernst."

Professor Weka winked at Xiuge, "I've heard you're actually pretty good at etiquette...... I think it would be helpful to show a little more this time. ”

With that, he stepped forward and took off the mage emblem that symbolized his identity, and gently pressed it against the middle of the magic gate.

With Professor Veka's action, a melodious, elegant melody came from inside the closed magic door, and then the door slowly opened, and a very spacious room with extremely retro and elegant decoration appeared in front of Xiuge.

If the offices of Merlinler and the Dharma-Committee have always been unexpectedly efficient and concise, then the current room perfectly fits the "stereotype" of powerful mages and scholars in the imagination of ordinary people.

Huge bookshelves made of precious wood, each from the floor to the ceiling, they are obviously not as simple as simple bookshelves, Xiuge only glanced at them, and found a large number of extremely complex traces of magic in them, these delicate and rigorous circuits are hidden in those seemingly quaint wooden boards and stands, under the operation of these special magic, pale yellow mage hands hovering around.

A large number of materials and texts are stored in these shelves, and their number and scope are far beyond Xiuge's imagination - on these shelves, Xiuge even perceives a very versatile "extension ceremony", which indicates that the actual space inside these shelves is likely to be very exaggerated.

Slender and nimble magical golems stood silently, apparently serving as both attendants and guards, and on these golems, Shug could easily find some of the supplies that the attendants would carry with them, as well as the patterns that could induce powerful magic, as well as the crystalline guns and swords that were installed and hidden in their torsos and limbs.

Even more striking is the central location of the study.

The area was apparently deliberately shaped to resemble a reception room or lounge, with delicate soft chairs arranged around a round table, and above the round table, a large crystal ball carved into the shape of Mel's Eye was suspended, and some small influences could be faintly seen within the sphere.

At this time, there were several figures sitting under the crystal ball, and it was obvious that they were the "big shots" that Xiuge was going to see this time.

"Abyss-level mage, hmm......"

Shuge squinted slightly, he restrained the abyssal magic in his body, and covered them up as much as possible under his regular magical power, and the old Weika who walked beside Shug couldn't help but glance in his direction.

Just now, in the perception of this old mage, this young man who has always been sharp, and always has a bit of confidence and arrogance, suddenly seems to have undergone a great change, like a terrible crystallization gun has been stuffed into a holster, and now Xiuge no longer has that strange and slightly cold sense of oppression, but has become like those well-educated young nobles who frequently go out in social situations......

Gentle, humble, and harmless.

This unusual and somewhat exaggerated change surprised the well-informed old Wecca, of course, he had no way to perceive the change in the magic in Xiuge's body, but simply thought that Xiuge was indeed very good in this aspect, and he did listen to his own advice.

Thinking of this, his evaluation of Xiuge was two points higher.

Just as the two of them walked to the middle of the large study, a slightly hoarse male voice came from the front: "Fetch me two things, one is a letter from Master Merudka, and the other is the Wattle spy file sent by the Lady of Waterl...... All want to be original. ”

At his request, Shug saw several pale yellow mage hands in action, flying in different directions and disappearing between the bookshelves, apparently the "caretakers" of this magnificent study.

After giving the order, the mage turned his head and cast a curious glance at Old Veka and Shuge, "Alright, our guest has finally arrived, Master Weka, you can go about your business...... It's another mess on St. Steele's side, isn't it? ”

As he spoke, the hands of the mages who had left before had already gathered, and a letter and a document sealed in a magic file bag were sent directly to Old Veca, which surprised Shug slightly - these two very important documents were actually prepared for Professor Weca, and it was obvious that these deep-sea mages in front of them had also learned about the new situation in St. Steele.

"Don't rush people away, my dear."

A female mage dressed as a noble lady spoke, and although her outfit was far from the identity of a mage, the powerful magic that was constantly flowing was not fake—she was also one of the deep-sea mages.

The mage's voice and countenance had been magically manipulated, and without using her magical vision, Hug found that she couldn't see through her disguise.

The deep-sea female mage also seemed to notice Xiuge's cautious observation, so she let out a pleasant chuckle, and then put her palm on the shoulder of the middle-aged man from before: "We have a quiet small study here, and the secrets are all complete, so let our legal committee officials work in it, after all, this little friend of ours is also an envoy and representative, and there can be no accidents here." ”

Hearing this, Old Veka was visibly relieved, and in the face of these heavyweights with outstanding status and had been allowed to intervene in the affairs of the Law Committee, he could only choose to follow orders, so he winked at Xiuge, and then held the two important documents and followed a magic puppet to the other side.

"Relax, don't get too nervous, put their magic aside, they're just a bunch of old guys like us at best."

General Bernhardt's barely comforting voice floated out of Xiuge's spiritual world: "Child, you may not know, when I was about the same age as Ling, I was taken to the royal courtyard by the Augustinian royal family to chat, blowing cowhide for hours, and I learned that the bald man sitting opposite me was our national ......"

After all, he couldn't finish his broken words, and the rest of the Ernst family's will had already swarmed up, pulling the broken General Bernhardt into the deepest part of Xiuge's spiritual world.

However, the will of the family did not do this because they could not stand Bernhardt's nonsense, but because they felt an extremely obvious sense of prying in the mages in front of them.

"It's rude to be distracted at such times, young sir."

"Maybe you're too nervous? Or maybe he wants some kind of help? ”

It was at this moment that the other two deep-sea mages spoke.

They were two elves with the characteristic lines of the highland mountain elves on their faces.

However, the appearance of these two elven mages is really a bit unbearable to look at - as an elven clan that has always been quite prominent in terms of appearance, the appearance of these two in front of them is really a bit extreme.

Not to mention the fat and thin, the fat one is like a huge ball, and the elven lines on his face are completely deformed, while the thin one is like a street lamp pole, with sunken cheeks and black eyes, as if he will die suddenly on the spot in the next second.

What surprised Xiuge even more was that the two seemed to be twins.

Although the difference between the two is very exaggerated, their voices and eyebrows are somewhat similar, and more importantly, the frequency of the magic emanating from them is very close, which indicates that their spirit and heart are extremely close.

At this point, the four deep-sea mages mentioned by Professor Weka were all here, and in front of these legendary figures with amazing status, Xiuge naturally showed his most polite side.

In the face of the two elven mages, one fat and one thin, Shuge decisively adopted the standard etiquette of the mountain elves on the plateau, and in the face of the mysterious noble female mage, he offered the greetings that were common within the Plains Kingdom - he noticed that the female mage was wearing a delicate earring, which obviously belonged to the Desail family of the Deran Kingdom, that is, the family to which the two noble girls who had joined the Black Sun Society belonged before.

As for the middle-aged mage who was dressed in a simple robe and did not have many memory points in his appearance, Xiuge selectively gave general etiquette, and he really couldn't tell the nationality and nationality of this person.

The thoughtful etiquette brought matching benefits, and the four deep-sea mages did not embarrass the young man in front of them, and soon, Xiuge sat down on an empty soft chair and officially began to talk with these legends.

The noblewoman, or "Lady Delaly", gently waved her gloved palm, and the huge crystal ball of Mel's Eye that was hovering above everyone immediately landed, and it flickered twice, and then an extremely clear image appeared inside.

Through the cover of the speech in Wei Lin's hand, Xiuge learned that the topic of her speech should be the "Direction and Goal of the Dawn Society" co-written by Meyer and others.

In the original meeting, this was a very important topic for the Dawn Society, which was related to the real location of the Dawn Society's "roots", and also related to what forces and organizations it could receive support in the follow-up actions.

Lady Delaly glanced at Shug with interest and then "zoomed in" the frame, which made Viline's face and her voice clearer.

Soon, the content of the speech that was clearly organized and had a unique "Dawn Club temperament" attracted the attention of several bigwigs present.

After listening for a while, the most ordinary-looking mage "Edmund" suddenly looked in the direction of Xiuge, he looked at Xiuge silently, and then a hoarse voice came out of his mouth.

"Mr. Schug Ernst...... As the successor to the Ernst family, can you answer me a few questions? ”

Shuge had almost determined that this Edmund was what old Vecca called a "conservative", so he was also extremely cautious: "Please ask questions, Master Edmund, I will answer your questions as much as I can." ”

"yes, okay."

Edmund nodded, he thought for two seconds, and then said, "Before I get into any other topics, I'd like to ask a question that might be a bit 'narrow'...... What kind of role do you play within the Dawn Society? Or, what does it mean to you to the Dawn Society? ”

This first question is already a bit tricky.

Hearing this question, the other three mages also looked at it together.

On the surface, Xiuge has not changed much, but in his heart he is very disgusted by this kind of questioning - it is easy to remind Xiuge of those workplace interviews he has experienced in the past, and it is also the legendary "pressure surface".

After a brief moment of thought, Shuge replied, "If that's the question, then my answer is...... Within the Dawn Society, I'm just a member who happens to have some magic and power, and has a more complicated experience. ”

"I can be a window for the Dawn Society to talk to the outside world, but I'm not the only one, I can be replaced by someone else at some point in the future, and that's one of our current goals."
