Five days flew by.

Rosen took classes at the Golden Magic Academy for five days, two classes a day, attended by more than 4,000 students, and each course cost 10 crowns.

There are a total of 10 advanced flow number lessons, which explain the outline of multi-dimensional flow numbers.

As a result, 400,000 kroner was credited, which was still tax-free.

It's like a dream.

Five days later, it was time for the opening ceremony of the Golden Lake University Conference.

At five o'clock in the morning, there was a strong mana fluctuation in the direction of the royal golden manor on the lakeside.

Even from the Royal Botanical Society more than a dozen kilometers away, Rosen could clearly feel the throbbing of his heart.

He knew that this should be the Middle Realm God Emperor using the artifact 'Destiny Compass' in order to summon the wisdom blessing of the Golden God for this Golden Lake University meeting.

This was a rare situation, and he immediately ran to the top roof of the Botanical Society.

After running a few steps, he ran back to the warehouse and came out with three pairs of binoculars from Sky One.

On the way, I found that Archmage Brun and Master Dora were also walking towards the rooftop, so the three of them walked side by side.

When I got to the rooftop, it wasn't high enough.

Bren waved his hand: "Use stealth to fly to the sky and see." ”

So the three of them used stealth and flying skills, flew all the way into the sky, and when they flew to an altitude of 300 meters, they were able to cross more than ten kilometers and see the royal golden manor by the lake.

But because of the distance, I still can't see clearly.

Rosen immediately distributed binoculars.

"Master, Madam, the effect of my telescope is comparable to the high-level spell 'Dragon's Eye', take it and try it."

"So powerful? That's got to work. ”

The two immediately used binoculars, and Rosen also saw the situation of the Golden Manor clearly through the telescope.

I saw that the Golden Manor covers an area of about 2,000 Laban, and the whole is built around a small bay in the Great Golden Lake, and the buildings around the lake are not high, but they are very, very large.

Inside, there is a large square square with a side length of 800 meters, revealing a magnificent royal style.

The main hall, called the Temple of Truth, is also very large, more than three times larger than the Hall of Wisdom of the Flower Society, and is built of white stones, showing excellent architectural skills.

There are many figures and sculptures, and the trees are ancient and tall, and every detail silently tells the heavy history.

The bay is also not empty.

A huge square wooden platform with a length of more than 100 meters and a width of more than 100 meters has been built on the water, surrounded by a large number of brightly colored flags, and the surrounding water is filled with various small wooden boats.

Archmage Bren began to give Rosen the details.

"Rosen, do you see the other side of the square?"

"See."

"That's called the Roman Grand Plaza, and those golden warriors are the Divine Sword Guards, there are 100 of them, at least all of them are level 7 great warriors, and they have been blessed with gold by the gods."

"They are extremely resistant to all kinds of spells, and their attacks are also extremely capable of breaking spells, and they have a certain ability to fly."

Rosen suddenly exclaimed: "Hmm~~ It's a bit powerful." ”

If that's the case, then it's basically impossible for a mortal archmage to be the opponent of these divine sword guards.

"Don't worry, the Divine Sword Guards are only responsible for guarding the Divine Emperor and the Imperial Palace, and will never take the initiative to attack earthly mages, let alone participate in earthly politics. At least not in the last hundred years. ”

"Look at the middle one, the mage with a golden plate in both hands, and all white hair."

"That is the current God Emperor Deuta 7, who is himself a level 8 archmage, but after taking the Compass of Destiny, his power will be raised to the ultimate level 9, and it is almost endless."

"And the Compass of Destiny is not only powerful, but also has great authority, in a word, it can ban the power of the Duke's artifact, and make the Duke lose his extraordinary power."

Rosen had heard of this, and this was the basis of the Divine Emperor's military force to rule the Four Realms.

Historically, there have been many incidents in which the Divine Emperor interfered in the politics of the Four Realms, especially the change of dukes, and the means of interference was to use the Compass of Fate to issue a ban.

As soon as the ban was made, the current duke would immediately step down and be replaced by a new family member to take over the duke's position.

Of course, in the past hundred years, the ban has basically not been moved, and the world has gradually forgotten the power of the compass of fate.

In the center of the square, the God Emperor suddenly raised the Compass of Destiny above his head, and after lasting for more than ten seconds, a faint golden pillar of light shot down from the sky, and the pillar of light expanded rapidly, enveloping the huge golden manor.

"That's the blessing of the wisdom of the Golden God."

"With this blessing, there will be no dark forces at the university meeting, and all the participants will not get sick or be mortally injured. Even if you drown in the lake, as long as it doesn't take more than 12 hours, you can be rescued. ”

Rosen was very happy: "Hmm~ It's really good. ”

With this blessing, he will be able to feel at ease in the university meeting.

He pointed to the wooden platform on the surface of the lake: "Master, what is that platform for?" ”

"Mages compete in martial arts, not only to resolve conflicts and disputes, but also to simply compete and show new spells."

Speaking of which, Dora interjected, "Rosen, if you were to duel with Master Seraf, it would happen on that high platform. ”

Bren was stunned: "Duel? And Seraf? ”

Rosen nodded: "I passed by the Grand Canal before, and there were some stories on the Storm Lord ship, and there were some conflicts with Seraf's son Olsson, so I sent an invitation to his father Seraf to a duel. ”

"But to this day, I haven't heard back from Seraf, and I don't know if he will take my duel."

Bren asked, "What are the conditions for a duel?" ”

"If I win, he apologizes to me and opens up business."

Bren thought for a moment and shook his head: "According to what I know about Seraf, he won't accept it, and he will refuse your invitation to a duel because of his unequal status." ”

"If you say anything excessive, he will also complain to the God Emperor, saying that you have tarnished the glory of the Marquis of God, and ask you to apologize to him in person and make compensation."

"And it's all in accordance with the rules."

Rosen frowned slightly: "I don't even dare to take the duel of my junior, isn't he afraid of losing face?" ”

Dora smiled lightly: "Others are afraid of losing face, but he is not afraid of the Horenir family, because they have no face at all, so there is no question of losing or not losing it." ”

Bren nodded: "Dora is right, then, do you have a solution?" ”

Rosen spread his hands: "The second prince said that he would solve it for me." ”

Upon hearing this, Bren laughed: "Since the second prince helps, then I don't have to worry." ”

Dora grinned too: "Seraf has fun now." ”

Seeing that the time was almost up, Rosen said, "Master, shall we set off to attend the opening ceremony now?" ”

Bren shook his head: "Go ahead, I'm too lazy to participate in these cumbersome etiquette." The winter wheat in the observation room is growing at a critical time. ”

After a pause, he added: "I've been to three college conferences, and I'm tired of it for a long time. The only thing I was looking forward to was the thesis presentation. ”

"But it's also too time-consuming, so I usually hire someone to copy it back for me, so I have time to read it slowly."

In that case, then Rosen and Dora went.

The trio returned to the rooftop.

"I'll leave this telescope old man."

Rosen chuckled: "This is a gift to the master."

Dora also smiled: "What about this?" ”

"I'll give it to you, too."

This time, he brought out more than 20 samples, which were originally given away as gifts.

Lawson plans to drive Sky One to the ceremony, but is stopped by Bren.

"Stop me here, I'll show you."

"Otherwise, when you arrive at the venue, there will be many people, and it is difficult to ensure that someone will be blinded by jealousy and take the opportunity to destroy you, and then you will not be able to show it."

Rosen was right to think about it, he had already submitted the results, and the presentation date was scheduled for the morning of the third day of the university conference.

"Then trouble the master."

"It's a trivial matter, you can go in my carriage."

After speaking, he added meaningfully: "Young people should also know moderation, don't let the old man and me lose face in front of my old friends." ”

It's not a big deal for a young man to cheat, he did it when he was young, but he can't make a big fuss and lose face.

Dora suddenly blushed and said, "Master, you won't sue my father, will you?" ”

"Of course I won't, but there are so many big mouths in this world."

Lawson was also a little embarrassed, and smiled awkwardly: "Eh~ I'll pay attention to it too."

Soon the two got into the Bren carriage and rushed to the royal golden manor on the shore of the Golden Lake.

On the way, Dora whispered, "Don't be afraid, let's be careful, it's okay." And even if my father knew, he wouldn't blame me as long as it didn't make a big fuss. ”

"In fact, he's been feeling guilty about me all these years."

Rosen shrugged: "No need to explain, ma'am, I know it all." ”

Dora secretly breathed a sigh of relief, got up and sat down next to Lawson, snuggled into his arms, and said quietly: "I know it's wrong for us to do this, but I just can't help it." You were the one who gave me a really good taste, and once I tasted it, I will never forget it. ”

Rosen patted her on the back, "I understand, but what Master Bren said is not wrong, it does require moderation. After all, you also said it, just embellishment, not the goal. ”

After a pause, he asked, "Do you like the storybook I wrote for you?" ”

As soon as she said this, Dora's eyes lit up: "It's beautiful, you write so well." It's just too little, and I look at it over and over again every day. ”

Rosen took out three small copies of a new storybook of about 100,000 words from his carry-on bag: "I took the time to copy some more for you." ”

"Aha~~ There's something to do now."

Dora took the storybook, even Lawson ignored it, looked at it with relish, and quickly sank into the wonderful story world.

About an hour later, the carriage arrived at the gate of the Golden Manor, and after Lawson handed over the invitation, the carriage drove all the way into the venue of the Golden Manor.

And as soon as I entered the manor and got out of the car, the first feeling was that it was lively, full of people, and mages everywhere.

The famous mage not only came by himself, but also brought companions, some apprentices, some children, some wives or lovers.

Roughly estimated, there must be more than 20,000 people, and any old man who meets him may be an archmage.

Dora followed her father to a college meeting and became a guide for Rosen.

"Look, that's the trading area.

"In this trading area, any mage can rent a shop for a small amount of money, or put things on the table to buy and buy, or wait for someone to negotiate the price of the items they want."

Rosen nodded, thinking it was good.

After walking out of the trading area, I came to a large glass conservatory.

"This is a resting area where mages gossip, discuss spells, or simply drink."

"Oh, by the way, the Judgment Chess Masters is taking place here. You see, there's the registration office over there. ”

Rosen suddenly remembered the invitation to the Masters given to him by Nailofa, so he found it, walked to the registration office and signed up.

The applicant looked at the invitation and said, "Master Lawson, although the invitation is genuine, it belongs to Master Nailorfa, not you. ”

"Accidentally, we want to arrange a one-hour preliminary rapid screening to prove your strength."

"Okay."

Anyway, there are more than 2 hours before the opening ceremony, so there is plenty of time.

The applicant pointed to the seat next to him: "This is the chess tester, as long as you defeat him, you will be eligible to enter the Masters." ”

Rosen glanced at the chess tester, who was about fifty years old, with black eyes and black hair, and a calm temperament, he should be a trial chess master.

He walked over and sat down across from him, and asked seriously, "Sir, what are the rules of rapid chess?" ”

"You must fall in five seconds, and you must not regret chess, and everything else is the same as normal chess."

Rosen was pleased: "This is good. ”

I don't know why, I always feel that the person in front of me is a little familiar, but after thinking about it carefully, I can't remember where I have seen it.

If you don't understand, you just don't want to, and just start playing chess.

Soon the chessboard was set.

Rosen said, "You go first." ”

The old man nodded: "Okay, I'll go first." ”

After he landed, Rosen opened the chess software and began to play back.

After that, the two fell in five seconds, about 40 minutes, and a total of 592 hands.

Rosen was a little surprised, and felt that the organizers might be deliberately making things difficult for him, because this chess tester was much stronger than Naelofa.

Fortunately, although it is strong, it still can't get the software.

After 594 hands, Rosen pushed out a step: "Judgment." ”

The black-haired old man was silent in front of the chessboard, and after a long time, he looked up at Rosen carefully, and his expression was meaningful.

"If you can play such a beautiful trial chess at a young age, you must have a great future!"

After speaking, he turned his head to look at the applicant: "He passed." ”

"Okay, then the trial chess tournament will officially start at 10 o'clock in the morning in ten days. Please attend on time, if you do not show up after the deadline, it will be regarded as a waiver. ”

"Remembered."

At this time, the opening ceremony was still an hour away.

One by one, the royal attendants began to inform the invited official mages one by one, leading the participating mages to the main meeting place of the university.

That is, the Temple of Truth.

Rosen and Dora rushed to the Temple of Truth.

As he walked, he saw an acquaintance, none other than Olsson.

Olsson was not alone, and there was an old man of about fifty years old beside him, with a second-level master badge pinned to his chest, made of immortal Aojin and rubies.

Rosen understood at a glance that the person who came should be the Marquis of Hollennier himself.

Seeing that the other party was looking at him unkindly, Rosen did not retreat, and said with a faint smile: "Huh~ Isn't this a famous thief in the East?" ”

Olsson's face turned blue and he was about to get angry, but he was stopped by Horenir.

He also smiled faintly: "Master Lawson, don't be happy. You have some skills, but you're not qualified to duel me. Wait, His Majesty the God Emperor will make you apologize to me!" ”

With that, he turned and left.

Dora pursed the corners of her mouth: "Look, Master Bren guessed correctly." ”

Rosen sighed lightly: "Everyone in this world is really different, there are noble and shameless. ”

Therefore, no matter how high a person's prestige and achievements are, it is impossible to please everyone.

Only the supreme power can truly have a deterrent effect on 'everyone'.

The stronger the power, the less villains like Seraf will encounter.
