Chapter XXVII: Leo's Badge
The moment he entered the magic spire, Leo felt as if he had crossed a long space, and he had a slight confusion of perception.
"Could it be that this place has been detached from the main material plane, and the interior is built in the half-plane, and the minaret on the outside is just a decoration?"
Leo pondered to himself, and before he could come to any conclusion, a middle-aged man in a yellow mage robe suddenly appeared in front of him.
The man's appearance is ordinary, but the color of the mage robe shows his status as an intermediate mage, and the shape of the mage robe is also more ordinary, and it looks a little similar to Robert's, which should be specially designed for battle mages.
His gaze fell on the chubby body in the form of the Nightblade Leopard, and he muttered: "Hmm, an ogre druid, a very magical race class match, I thought that only good races would appear druids." Hehe, no wonder there was a lucky bird singing by my window this morning, and sure enough, I got subversive knowledge. ”
This is the first time that someone has directly seen Chubby's true identity, Leo couldn't help but be a little surprised, but still echoed: "It's really magical, many people say so." ”
"Haha, it seems that my opinion is not of the non-mainstream category. The man smiled, suddenly remembered something, nodded slightly, and said: "I'm sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet, but I'm going to be on duty today, Gabnis Warburn, on behalf of all the battle mages, welcome the two of you to the 'Magic Blade'!"
He then glanced back and forth between Leo and Vicky, who were not much older than each other. They were all wearing junior mage robes, but they didn't wear badges, which made him a little confused about the target for a while.
"You guys. Who is Vicky Bolton?"
Vicky said, "It's me, excuse me......"
"Okay, I'll arrange for you to go to the designated place in a moment. Gabnes Warburn interrupted, not letting Vicky ask questions. He looked around again, "No, Safinis clearly said that there was a person who was going to participate in the Battle Mage Trial, where did he go? See anyone else?"
Leo laughed, "Mr. Warburn, actually, someone who wants to participate in the Battle Mage Trial. That's me. ”
Gabnes Warburn thought that Leo was probably a friend of Wiki, and he accompanied him to the "Magic Blade" to open his eyes, but he didn't expect it to be like this. Looking at Leo's young face, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Oh, how old are you? ”
"Not really. Leo replied truthfully.
"You know. Battlemages can only reach level 2......" Garbnis Warburn assumed as a forerunner. I was getting ready to educate this young man, but in the middle of the conversation, I stopped.
Because he had already seen that Leo was taking out a badge with two magical stars, it was the standard badge that he was thinking of his level 2 status.
"Okay, then you come with me too, there is a trial tomorrow, if your physical condition is up to par. You can participate. Gabnes Warburn nodded, then shook his head. Whispering to himself, he began to babble: "Is it really the world of young people now? Am I so old? Or do I no longer understand the world now?"
............
As he walked with Gabnes Warburn, Leo looked around.
The internal structure of the "Magic Blade" magic tower is somewhat similar to that of the Magikai Society, with a hall at the front and a corridor at the end that leads to the upper floor. It can be seen that the overall structure of each floor is much smaller, but it seems to make up for it in the number of floors, as can be seen from the fact that Gabnis Warburn did not lead them down the corridor, but to a four-row elevator.
While waiting for the elevator, Gabnes Warburn said to Leo: "The trial registration is on the 11th floor, and I will take you there and register." Then someone will introduce you to the trial and settle your buddy. ”
"Guy, Chubby likes this!" said Nightblade Leopard, raising his head, causing Gabness Warburn to laugh heartily.
The question was interrupted just now, which made the wiki a little uncomfortable, and hurriedly asked, "What about me?"
Gabnes Warburn didn't hide anything and replied, "When we send him over, you follow me to the 31st floor." His Excellency Conramo is already waiting for you. ”
"Oh, okay. Hearing the name, the wiki was finally relieved.
"Conramo?" Leo always felt as if he had heard the name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it, but he also understood that the person who could be called your Excellency by an intermediate mage was definitely not low, and he might even be a legendary powerhouse. Thinking of this, he warned himself not to go into random exploration, but asked curiously: "Mr. Warburn, when I was outside just now, a voice came directly into my head, may I ask ......?"
"You're talking about Safinis, well, how am I going to explain it to you. Gabnes Warburn could see that Leo was very resistant to what had just happened, and in fact there were not a few people who felt this way, and no one liked to be directly invaded into their consciousness.
After thinking about it and sorting out his words again, he said: "It is an alchemical wisdom that connects our entire 'magic blade' information base, and also complicates external monitoring and other matters, but you can rest assured that it enters your mind, only transmits information, and will not do anything else." ”
At this time, the elevator finally arrived, and the metal door opened, but no one came out.
The wiki looked at it for a moment, and there were no more than ten people on the entire floor. When the three of them approached the elevator, he asked, "Why is this place so deserted?
"It wasn't like that before. In the past, the 'Magic Blade' was very lively, and a large number of mages often gathered here to exchange information, issue quests, and discuss the essence of battle with each other. Gabnes Warburn looked wistful, quickly sighed, and continued: "As for now, it's not just deserted, it's almost deserted. The city outside is better, at least there is a circulation of goods, but not inside the magic tower, and there are a lot fewer people who have participated in trials and received tasks recently. ”
"Why is that?" Leo wondered, he really couldn't understand how a once-powerful magical organization could fall all at once.
Gabnes Warburn puffed out his cheeks and said with a little annoyance: "It's not that Lordaeron's academic title system is causing trouble, many people are running to research projects, and the door is not out of the door, so this place is deserted." I don't understand, what's so good about a broken title, isn't it just that he can get Lordaeron's attention? Lordaeron is amazing!"
"Of course...... remarkable," Leo and Vicky said in their hearts at the same time.
"We're battle mages! Is it something we do to study electricity, magnetism, light, waves, force fields, matter reactions, or whatever? It's naked discrimination!" said Gabney Warburn, getting angrier and angrier, almost roaring, and the elevator seemed to tremble.
Vicky didn't agree with the other party's point of view, but it was difficult to refute it directly, his eyes rolled, and he smiled: "Hey, Leo, I haven't seen the badge of the academic title." ”
Leo immediately understood what he was going to do, shook his head and said, "How is it possible, I have heard that your teacher is a very powerful mage. ”
"The teacher thinks his badge is more important than his life, how can he show it to me?" Vicky leaned over, hooked Leo's shoulder very naturally, and said in his ear: "Don't be stingy, take it out and I'll see." ”
Leo was uncomfortable by this kind of behavior, and hurriedly dodged away, looking at the burning eyes of the wiki, and smiled bitterly in his heart, it seems that if he doesn't take out the badge today, he won't give up.
"You...... You...... Academic titles?" Gabnis-Warburn reacted, his face full of disbelief, and his eyes almost burst out when he saw what Leo was holding.
It was a black badge with a scroll engraved on it. (To be continued......)
