Chapter 9: Certification of Magical Apprentices
At this time, Vince also put away his sad expression and put on a smiling face again. After all, although he actually made a little less than expected, this transaction in this off-season is enough to be regarded as a big business, so he is actually in a good mood.
Wens said generously: "The gold thing is fine. There are also many of them in the pΓΉ shop. As for the commission...... I think Xu you know, I'm a subordinate shop of the Magic Guild here, although I also accept commissions, but I only accept commissions related to magicians or magic items, if it's the kind of commission of mercenaries, you might as well go to Kate's tavern or wait for the road to go to the mercenary guild in the city to make a formal commission. β
Xu Yue smiled and said, "My commission can be regarded as a commission related to magic." I want you to help me find a teacher who is proficient in the Carthusian language and script, and by the way, teaches me the common language. To be honest, I can speak the lingua franca, but I can't write it. Before leaving Chatner, I had only been exposed to the language and writing of Chatner. β
"What are you learning this for? Oh, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked that, I was just curious. After all, few people learn Carthusian except for mages. Vince said a little strangely.
Carthusian is the lingua franca of the magicians, and the language itself is very close to the rules of magic, so there is a strange power in the language and writing.
Many of the spells used to cast spells and write magic scrolls come from the Carthusian language. There are even some magicians who believe that the Carthusian language was actually derived from the language used by the ancient nature gods.
Xu Yue didn't say anything else, directly revealing the back of his right hand to concentrate slightly, and suddenly a faint glowing magic inheritance mark symbol appeared from his arm.
"Oh my God! Magical Legacy Mark, Dear Xu, didn't you tell me that you were still a Venerable Mage!" said Vince with a look of surprise after seeing the Legacy Mark.
"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to hide it. But I'm actually technically a knocker now! my teacher died suddenly in danger shortly after taking me in, and I haven't learned anything about magic. So I'm not technically a magician right now, not even a magic apprentice. Xu Yue said with a hint of apology on his face.
"Hehe, it doesn't matter, does it. As long as you have this legal magic heritage mark, you can go to any magic guild branch to learn magic, although it costs a lot of money, but that is not a problem for you, is it? As long as the person with the legal magic inheritance mark is a magic apprentice, this is clearly stipulated by the magic guild. Vince said.
Xu Yue nodded and said, "Yes, this is also the third thing I came here to." I would like to be certified as a magic apprentice directly with you. As far as I know, the Magical Guild branch is a subordinate organization that can recognize the legal qualifications of a junior magic apprentice. β
Vins smiled and said, "Oh, of course, even though I'm only a shop under the Magic Guild Chapter, I can do authenticate it. After all, there are no hard standards for magic and spells for junior magic apprentices, as long as they have a legitimate magical inheritance mark. However, because it requires a special magic item, it costs ten gold coins!"
"That's not a problem. Isn't it?" said Xu Yue with a smile, pointing to the bearer gold coin access card that had been placed in Vins's hand.
Hearing this, Vins laughed and said, "Of course it's not a problem! You come over tomorrow morning, and I'll take you to meet the teacher who teaches language and writing, and it's easy to get a certificate." So are you going to certify now?"
"Of course, the sooner I became an apprentice in magic, the sooner I could have stepped into the temple of magic. To be honest, I've been looking forward to it for a long time!" Xu Yue nodded and said with a smile.
I have to say that the subordinate organizations of the Magic Guild are very efficient. After confirming Xu Yue's request, Wens ordered the matter to continue, and in less than two minutes, a full sixty kilograms of gold in exchange for eight hundred gold coins were placed in front of his eyes.
At the same time, a disc half a meter in diameter was also brought over. The disc looked small but heavy, and it took two men to lift it together. The surface of the disc is printed with a circle of patterns outlined by strange words and symbols, and the graphics of the whole disc give people a complex and mysterious feeling.
"Magic Array?" Xu Yue asked with a bit of speculation as he looked at the pattern on the disc.
"Hehe, yes, it's indeed a magic array. This is a magic circle created by the Magic Guild and distributed to all branches, specifically for testing the magic inheritance imprint, and of course it also has the role of communication. This magic circle can be directly connected to the alchemy life of the magic guild branch, and the alchemy life will rely on this magic array to identify your inheritance mark, as long as it is the inheritance mark of a magician who has been officially registered in the magic guild. Vince nodded.
Xu Yue looked at this magic array differently, he didn't expect that the magic technology in this world would be so advanced. This thing is almost the equivalent of a mobile phone and a remote recognizer.
Vince stood beside the disc and chanted a spell as a spiral aura appeared from his hand and connected to the center of the disc magic circle.
Suddenly, the patterns on the entire magic array lit up one after another. It's like a sophisticated machine is starting to work.
Wiping the sweat from his head, Vince said embarrassedly, "I haven't done this for too long, and it's really a bit laborious for a while." β
Xu Yue was taken aback by his actions on the side, only to see him staring at Vins differently and then said, "It was really rude before." I didn't expect you to be a magician. β
Vince waved his hand and said, "It's just an intermediate magic apprentice." For those of us who have joined the Magic Guild but have not been able to break through to the first-level magicians after the age of fifty, the Magic Guild will generally give us two choices. One is to receive a sum of money and leave the guild, and no longer enjoy the benefits of the guild. The other is to be assigned to various branches of the guild, so that not only can you continue to enjoy the benefits of the guild, but also get a commission according to your performance. And I chose the latter. β
Xu Yue understood what Vins said about the rules of the Magic Guild. After all, no organization can feed idlers for nothing. At the age of fifty, he still can't reach the level of a first-level magician, which proves that this person basically has no future on the path of magic.
The use of employment solves the problem of both sides, the magic apprentices can continue to get resources, and the guild can hire these experienced apprentices to take care of the guild's property, and the result seems to be very happy.
As soon as Vins's words fell, he saw that the disc magic array was already fully operational. Then a ray of light was seen cast into the air from the center of the disk. Suddenly, a person composed of light and shadow appeared in the air.
"Three-dimensional projection!" Xu Yue shouted in surprise in his heart after seeing the projection in the air. Fortunately, he was still more restrained and didn't shout out directly. It's just that anyone can see the look of surprise on their faces.
After all, this kind of advanced long-range 3D projection technology is not even available on the other side of the earth.
The disc is projected as a bust that looks like a humanoid imaginary with a hooded sorcerer running long-distance.
The entire hood completely obscured the man's face in the darkness, and the strange and gorgeous magical patterns on the hood and robes made people feel full of mystery.
"This is the Bostan Kingdom Branch of the Magic Guild, Vins Clarkman, the head of the branch of Komodo Town in the Calando Province of the Branch, please verify your identity!"
I saw that Vins revealed a ring on his hand, and the next moment I saw a light projected on the figure directly on the ring surface, and a blue light appeared on the ring at the same time.
"It also has a scanning function!?" Seeing this situation, Xu Yue was already speechless. If he hadn't been sure that there was no high-tech civilization in this world, he would probably have thought that he had crossed into a technological plane.
"Director Vince Clarkman, what are your circumstances that need to be brought to the head office for processing? After verifying his identity, the figure said.
The figure had been using that cold and formulaic language all the time, and it hadn't even moved half a point of its body.
Vance bowed slightly to the figure and said, "Lord Fleman, the Komodo Branch has received an application for the certification of a junior magic apprentice, please verify the magic inheritance mark of the magic apprentice Xu Yue." After speaking, he gestured to Xu Yue.
"Magic apprentice Xu Yue, please show your magic inheritance mark. The figure named Fleman said.
Xu Yue took a step forward after seeing Vince's gesture, revealing the back of his right hand and concentrating slightly on it, and suddenly the inheritance mark that Ovward had left behind appeared on his arm.
The same beam of light landed on the mark, and after three seconds the beam disappeared as Fleman's voice rang out: "Authentication Tong GuΓ²." Inheritor Oward Kane, registered in Red Leaf City, Zia Province, Kingdom of Coles, 6 Koles Kingdom, Talemia West, Level 3 Magician. Apprentice Xu Yue, registered in Komodo Town, Talumia University 6, Dongda 6, Kalando Province. Junior Magic Apprentice!
"Confirm!" Xu Yue nodded.
The entire certification process took less than three minutes to complete, and when the projection disappeared, the two sat back in their chairs.
Xu Yue asked with a bit of curiosity: "Director Wens, is that the alchemy life of the Magic Guild branch you said just now?"
Vins picked up the cup on the table, took a big sip of water, and then nodded, "Of course! Actually, alchemy life is no different from people. Alchemical life is a creature created by alchemy, combined with a specially refined construct. In addition to not needing to rest, they are just like normal people, not only can they think for themselves, but also have normal human feelings, so you must not offend them. β
"What happens if you offend?" Xu Yue asked curiously.
"There was once a fool who offended another chapter's alchemical life, and that alchemical life refused to do anything for him. In the end, that guy even had to travel a long distance to other clubs to apply for a real funding, and finally had to move to other clubs. Vince said with a shrug.
"Alchemy Life does this, doesn't the Magic Guild care?" Xu Yue asked curiously.
Vins shook his head and said, "Alchemy Life has complete self-awareness, and it can help the Magic Guild deal with many things. Its importance and status are even higher than that of low-level mages. Therefore, the attitude of the Magic Guild towards alchemy life is equal to that of magicians. You must know that an alchemical life like Lord Fleman, who is the exclusive alchemy of each branch of the union, not only usually receives remuneration, but also has the same status as the vice president of each branch of the union. β
Hearing this, Xu Yue also had to feel the openness of the Magic Guild in his heart. If these alchemy beings were put on the earth, they would never stop without being squeezed out of the last trace of profit like slaves. It is absolutely impossible to put the machine and human beings in the same position with the concept of that world.
The two chatted for a while, and after rejecting Wens's enthusiastic offer to keep him for dinner, Xu Yue left the adventurer gold coin. Before leaving, Xu Yue suddenly had an idea, thinking that Vins had purchased a lowest-level magic contract. The contents of the contract were written in Carthusian script in advance according to his description.
He then did not wander the streets of the town, but returned to the rented house and traveled directly back to the villa on Earth.
