'Grunt ~ Squeak. Gollum~~Squeak~'

With the slightly interfering sound of wheels, the carriage swayed towards the mage's guild in the middle of the city.

The low-grade carriage has no shock absorption, and it depends on the toughness of the wood itself, and the stability is very poor, and it is very uncomfortable to sit in the car and swing around.

I've heard that high-end carriages will be suspended with cowhide bands, or more upscale, and even use levitation spells to completely filter out bumps from the road surface.

Of course, the price will also be very high-end.

After a while, Thrandis began to test his apprenticeship.

"Rosen, according to the principle of gravity you proposed, how would you design a constant levitation spell in the carriage?"

Naturally, this is not difficult for Rosen.

"Mentor, I will design a six-way gravity well, with a maximum width and length of 20 centimeters, to ensure the shaking amplitude. The wall of the well is first slow and then urgent, so as to evenly balance the shaking force of the carriage. ”

Occam's razor principle, don't add entities unless necessary.

Therefore, if you can solve a problem with one spell, you should never use two more and never add more entities to assist.

It does not increase the complexity of the system and greatly increase the failure rate and maintenance difficulty.

Thrandis clapped his hands lightly and gave a heartfelt compliment.

"Brilliant design! Its spell structure is at least two stars simpler than traditional levitation, and it doesn't require any additional fixtures, but it can achieve exactly the same or even better stability performance. ”

After a pause, he said, "For our carriage, the power of low-level and inferior spells is enough to stabilize it. So, why don't my apprentices try to make the instructor more comfortable. ”

"Yes, Mentor."

Lawson opened the spell virtual machine, quickly designed a simplest low-level spell according to the previous idea, briefly tested it in the virtual machine, and after confirming that there was no problem, he moved his mind and cast it on the carriage.

The carriage was fixed by the spell, shook slightly, and suspended slightly, and the bumps suddenly changed from sharp to bone-chilling.

Thrandis was satisfied: "Very good. When I got to the guild, I submitted the spell by the way. ”

She deliberately honed Lawson's spell-casting ability, and while he maintained the spell, she asked again, "Did you remember the etiquette I taught you yesterday?" ”

"Hmm."

Rosen nodded slightly, a little reluctant to deal with it, because this stabilization spell was three-star and took up a lot of his energy.

Thrandis firmly grasped the limit of his apprentice's spell-casting ability, and immediately asked, "In the Mage's Guild, how to distinguish the status of a full-fledged mage?" ”

"Distinguish according to the special divine grace, spell-casting ability, and mana realm, among which the special divine grace has the highest weight and the mana realm is the lowest."

"What are the special charismas?"

"There are three main types, from high to low, they are the gods, the grace of the gods, and the seal of the gods."

"So, a mid-level 10-star divine grace mage, or a high-level 12-star ordinary mage, who has a high status?"

"According to the conversion formula of status weight, the former should be a little higher, and the latter should perform the lower mage salute to the former."

"Good."

Thrandis was satisfied, but the test didn't stop.

"What etiquette must an apprentice observe in front of a strange formal mage?"

"The three silent salutes are silent vision, silent speech, and silent action."

"The apprentice must not look directly into the eyes of the official mage, but must look down as a sign of humility. Apprentices are not allowed to speak unless questioned by a formal mage. Apprentices are not allowed to act on their own initiative unless invited by a formal mage. ”

"Anything else?"

"Apprentices are not allowed to block the path of the official mage, and when they meet on narrow roads, they must give way 5 meters in advance. Regardless of the occasion, the next apprenticeship must be performed first. ”

Thrandis was satisfied: "I have taught you this, not out of harshness, but out of self-preservation of the weak. ”

"When there are no outsiders, we can get along with each other at will, but when outsiders are present, we must observe etiquette so that others can't find a single mistake."

"If there is no mistake or omission in etiquette, others will naturally have no excuse to attack you for no reason, and there will be a lot of unnecessary trouble."

Rosen nodded earnestly: "I remember, mentor." ”

Although the relationship is so close that there is physical joy, the mentor is the mentor, the guide in the field of magic, and the respect that Lawson has for her has not changed in any way.

And a female mage who has received a higher intellectual education is a progressive woman in another world, and independence is her spiritual core.

Earthly notions of chastity have no real binding power on them, and the pleasures of the flesh are only a pastime of time.

If you are happy, you will be together, and if you are unhappy, you will be divided.

If you feel that you get carried away when you have a relationship, or even inch in, it is a brain kicked by a donkey, and there will never be a good end.

Many men in this world can't accept this, thinking that female mages are very lewd and lewd, and often insult them as witches.

But in fact, male mages tend to be several times more lascivious than female mages when it comes to behavior, regardless of gender, and the reason why dirty water is splashed on the latter is simply because women are relatively weak in social relations.

Straight to the point.

Silvermoon Fort was not big, and in less than half an hour, the carriage stopped smoothly at the gate of the Mage's Guild.

Thrandis flipped the lace hem of his top hat to hide his dizzying face, and waited for Rosen to get out of the carriage before he stepped out of the carriage with his support.

After standing still, she patted the folds of her dress and reminded her lover softly.

"Bring all the experimental tools, follow me, and observe the etiquette of an apprentice."

"Yes, Mentor."

The so-called experimental materials are some tools for verifying the conclusions of the paper, some small smooth balls, wooden tracks, paints, curtains and other gadgets that block the view.

There are always a lot of zeros, and without the help of a mage, it really can't be done with both hands alone.

Once Lawson had put everything on, Thrandis headed for the guild hall.

The hall was as crowded as ever, mostly young people, and there was no shortage of gray-haired old men.

But whoever saw the 12-star badge of Mithril on Thrandis's chest immediately retreated, lowered their gaze, and bowed from a distance, as if she had an invisible repulsive force field on her.

Lawson looked at it and sighed secretly: "Hmm~ This is the glory of a powerful mage." ”

After walking for a while, I met an old acquaintance, who was a low-level four-star official mage, Filama.

He hurried up to meet him, bowed down to the mage first, and then spoke: "Lady Thrandis, greetings to you, is there anything I can do for you?" ”

Probably due to the change in clothing, his attitude this time was obviously much more respectful than the last time.

Thrandis also fully displayed the reserve of a high-ranking mage, and only nodded in return.

"I'm going to the dissertation review department on the second floor, I'm familiar with the place, you can go and get busy, Master Filama."

Firama bowed slightly again and stepped aside.

Thrandis carried the corners of her skirt and ascended the moon-white marble spiral staircase to the second floor, and Lawson followed her three meters apart according to etiquette.

There were no outsiders on the stairs, and she continued to teach her apprentice in a soft tone.

"Mentor, I hate noisy occasions very much, especially I hate chatting with boring strangers, plus pestering with Alice, so I am not very popular in Silvermoon Castle."

"But in the Mage's Guild, there are still some mages who focus on spells and are outstandingly intelligent. And in order to fulfill the obligations of a formal mage, I have also turned in some magic papers, so I have a few colleagues in the thesis review department who can talk to me. ”

"Don't be jealous, they're all gray-haired old men."

Rosen looked at the mentor in front of him, who was as delicate as a rose in the snow, and sighed in his heart.

"It is estimated that only an old man who knows the destiny of heaven can resist your charm, so let's communicate with you with a normal heart."

It was precisely because of Thrandis's withdrawn personality and twists and turns that he was able to get close to Fangze.

Under normal circumstances, with the appearance and talent of a mentor, he would have easily attained a noble status, and I am afraid that he would not be able to look at him with a straight eye.

So, he really went lucky.

The two of them walked into the second floor, and walked a dozen steps along the wide corridor until they arrived at the door of a large hall, and next to the high gate hung a whole door plate made of Mithril, which read: "Silver Moon Castle Official Spell Thesis Review".

Compared with the busyness of the hall on the first floor, the hall on the second floor can only be described as a door, or more precisely, there are only two outsiders, Thrandis and Lawson.

Thrandis came to the door, knocked lightly, and chuckled, "Greetings, Master Fuller. ”

There are not many staff in the hall, only a dozen or so, most of them are male mages, and they are all above the intermediate level.

To be more precise, it is a group of middle-aged and elderly gentlemen with status, achievements and wealth.

Hearing the voice of a young woman by the door, all the mages turned their heads in unison, and when they saw Thrandis, their eyes showed an unconcealed intoxication.

Rosen bowed his head and saluted three times, but out of the corner of his eye, he already saw everything.

"Tsk, there are so many gentlemen, and the psychological pressure is getting bigger."

At this moment, an old mage, who was sitting behind a large wooden table in a ring, raised his head, and laughed loudly when he saw Thrandis.

"Ahaha~~ It turned out to be Miss Thrandis who had arrived, no wonder the Angelo outside the window was chirping."

Rosen saw that the Fuller mage had a dark purple badge pinned to his chest, with 14 sapphires on the outer ring and a dark golden wing on the outer ring.

"Divine Favor 14-star high-level mage, Starfall Stellar Gold plus the badge created by Immortal Aojin. This seems to be a bit higher than President Faeron's. ”

If he remembered correctly, President Faeron was just an ordinary mage, maybe he had a higher position, but when he met this old mage, he would probably have to perform the next mage ceremony.

On the other side, Fuller looked at Thrandis with a daughter-like gaze.

"So, Silvermoon Castle's Lonely Rose, what surprise can it bring me this time?"

Thrandis smiled slightly: "This surprise is a bit big, you have to be mentally prepared." ”
