Section 25 To Tugenhaben (Middle)
On a sunny day, Wang Qinian set off, and he only took Old John and the other two with him, because they needed to take turns driving the carriage, and there was a set of shadow animation machines in the back of the carriage.
Snow White and Alexander and the film of the Forty Thieves are also on his body, this time he went to Tugen Haben, Wang Qinian has two things, one is of course to go to the Magicians' Guild to participate in the magician assessment, this thing should be equivalent to a job title, not to evaluate does not mean that Wang Qinian does not have the strength of a magician, but if you want to communicate with other magicians, it is undoubtedly more convenient to have an identity authentication, and through guò certification, you can also get a chance to enlighten the wisdom stone.
Another thing, Wang Qinian plans to see if there is a chance to meet visionary businessmen in Tugenhaben and cooperate with the other party to promote the Shadow Animation.
Although the Shadow anime is lucrative every time it is shown in Liberty City, if it can be promoted to other cities, the profits will continue to increase.
Solomon's current two major revenues are Shadow Animation, and the other is the interception of trade profits from the city lord's Futong Guò company, which is equivalent to agency fees.
The latter's profits are not under the shadow animation, and even in the future will continue to increase with the further expansion of the trade volume with the orcs, but that is Franklin's gift in the end, unlike the shadow animation is Wang Qinian's own way of making money.
The carriage was driven by John Sr. and another former slave catcher in turn, while Wang Qinian meditated and rested in the carriage. Now that he was one of the three interior officials of Liberty City, he seemed to be appreciated by the lord of the city, Franklin, and John Sr. was now his subordinate, and he had an official status in Liberty City.
Old John is now Wang Qinian's official subordinates, and for those slave catchers, the relationship with Wang Qinian at the beginning was only a temporary obedience, not so much to follow, but rather a last resort "cooperation", because if they dispersed at that time, they would either return to employment, or become robbers, or return to the countryside and become farmers, which can be seen from the "occupation" they were secretly discussing in the free city what they were going to do.
As a result, they may die one day in the future, or their lives may be even more difficult.
And with Wang Qinian, not only is he making money now, but more importantly, he has begun to embark on the road of whitewashing his identity, which can give them a new life to start over.
And for Wang Qinian, he also needs a few younger brothers who run errands and do chores.
He didn't expect Old John and the others to do anything big for him, but the resources he could use were really limited, so he could only go step by step.
Whether in the Free City or in the fledgling Salomon Company, although he is the largest shareholder on the surface, he relies on the role of Shadow Animation, but in fact, in the Narcissus Theater, in the management of the Grand Theater itself, or in the sequence of the interior officials of the Free City, he is just a newcomer.
At this point, Wang Qinian is very sober.
-----
Six days later, the trio appeared in Tugenhaben, Modo.
This is a city with a much longer history than the City of Freedom, once one of the cities of the ancient Elven Empire, of course, the original site has long been destroyed in the war, and the current outline of the city was built hundreds of years ago in the ruins of the original, and then expanded many times.
This is the capital of the kingdom of Mordo, but the most conspicuous building in the capital is not the royal palace of Modo, but the spire-shaped building to the west, where the Wizards' Guild is located.
Wang Qinian entrusted the carriage to the post station, and the storage fee of one Moduo silver coin per day, and the feed of the post horse was calculated separately.
Then he rented two rooms in an inn in the city, and chose the most exclusive room, two Modo silver coins a day.
Prices are rising rapidly, and the rent for a room in a high-end hotel in Modo a few years ago was only a silver coin, but now it has risen to two.
However, of course, Wang Qinian did not care about this money, and he arranged for another person to guard the Shadow animation machine that was brought down from the carriage in the inn, and also instructed Old John to take charge of walking around the city, inquiring about the situation, and seeing if there was any person who could cooperate, preferably a businessman with a theater like Mr. Obier.
He straightened his outfits, traveled lightly, and walked towards the tower.
Before coming to the tower, he was stopped by the doorman, who was the private soldier of the Wizards' Guild, which was a relatively large force in the countries of the Terrans, originally established by several legendary mages, in order to unite all the mages and help the countries fight against the orcs.
In the war between the Terrans and the Orcs, the Orcs have a clear advantage in the mid-range combat power, and in the high-end combat power, the Terrans continue to emerge legendary powerhouses with the war, which is one of the reasons why the Terrans can finally gain the upper hand.
The original ideal was pure, but then it is often easy to deviate from the ideal, and when the Wizards' Guild becomes such a behemoth as it is now, it is interesting to still maintain a little bit of the original ideal.
Wang Qinian made his intention clear, and the guards allowed Wang Qinian to enter the tower.
According to the first floor of the tower, where all visitors were registered, Wang Qinian was registered after paying five Modo silver coins to the magic apprentice in charge of registration.
"Sir, you can conduct an evaluation, please let me introduce to you, there are two ways to evaluate the qualification of a magician, the first way requires you to pass two levels in a row, and the second way is to pass the actual battle, both of which can be recognized by the guild. ”
"Oh, tell me about the specifics?" asked Wang Qinian, who already knew about it from Chris and Bernhard, but still asked.
The introduction of the magic apprentice is basically the same as what Kristh said, the first one has two levels, the first level is the magic test, the magician who comes to the test can choose one or two kinds of magic, and then attack the designated test magic array, the test magic array can roughly test the level of magic power, you can see a magician's mastery of magic, involving the magic that the magician is good at, the level of instantaneous output of magic power, and the magic consumption of using a magic.; The second level evaluates the mage's level of magical mathematics, and if you can clear both levels, you will get a general mage's evaluation.
The second way is the actual combat test, which is a real battle with Warcraft, Alchemy Puppets or Constructed Creatures, in which a mage's comprehensive ability and the upper limit of mana power will be expressed, and will be evaluated by the battle mage.
Wang Qinian chose the first test method, and a magic apprentice who was in charge of guiding him led him to a room on the second floor.
There was a six-pointed star array in the room, and there were quite a few magical dark patterns in the empty space of the inner circle.
Wang Qinian had already recorded a number of spell models from Chris's library, and they had been successfully constructed.
The magic level below the third level is called the magic apprentice, and can only build zero-level spells, and most of the first-level spells need to be assisted by magic mediums to cast; formal magicians start from the third-level magic level, that is, third-level mages, and third-level mages can really be called mages, and begin to build all first-level spells and a small number of second-level spells, but most of the second-level spells need to use magic mediums, and those second-level spells that can be constructed and cast without the help of magic mediums are usually related to the mage's talent in some aspect, for example, a magician with a strong sense of a certain element is relatively easy to succeed in constructing third-level spells, or you can use magical math to improve the spell model or build a successful superior spell.
By analogy, every two levels of mana level is the approximate condition for building a successful higher-level spell model, and to break through the limitations of this condition, either you are extremely talented in some way, or you can use magical mathematics to simplify the spell model while still keeping the spell power from decreasing.
Another exception may be that, like Wang Qinian, he has mastered the magic of the ancient elven language, although it will almost empty his magic power, but it can allow him to cast spells beyond the ranks, because it is a different magic system from the human race.
In this test, Wang Qinian just wanted to get the official title of magician, so that he could communicate with other magicians in the future, and he didn't plan to leak out the magic he had mastered, and he didn't know how strong the alchemy puppets or demonic beasts used in the test were, so he didn't plan to participate in the actual combat test.
He has reached the level of a fourth-level mage, after he studied the mathematics of magic, he has built all the zero-level and first-level spells in the library, and some second-level spells have also been constructed, but unfortunately he has been too distracted by the Demon Shadow animation recently, and the auxiliary effect of the elven magic chess has weakened with the growth of his mage level, otherwise if he can reach the level of a fifth-level mage, he has now been able to build all the second-level spells and start to try the third-level spells.
After thinking about it, he chose the most powerful burning hand among the first-level spells.
A large flame hand struck the test magic array out of thin air, and the flames suddenly lit up in the magic array, and then were suppressed and extinguished by the power of the magic array.
"Mr. Owen, the test has been completed, and the results of your test will soon be passed from the magic circle to the magician on duty, and he will make a judgment on your test this time, and you can take the second test first. The magic apprentice said respectfully.
Wang Qinian nodded with satisfaction, he was not worried at all about passing the first level of the test, the level of magic power was not only his own estimate, but also the opponent in the elf magic chess, Chriss and Bernhard could also roughly estimate his magic level.
The second level of the test is to test the knowledge of magical mathematics, which is not as effective as the spell model, but magical mathematics is the foundation of the Terran magic system.
The magic model is based on the mathematics of magic, and alchemy can also use the mathematics of magic.
Terrans have little talent for casting and enchanting like the High Elves, and they rely on magical mathematics to parse and construct magical research.
