The three of them left their bags and griffons in the quarters that the Governor had arranged for them, and then went out for a brief walk around the city, found a tavern that seemed relatively clean, and got some food and drink on the second floor.

The local quality food included beef ribs, cheese and brown bread, and Panny, who had not been interested in cheese since he was a child, made some fried eggplant and onion soup, and was eating and drinking in silence, when Penny suddenly remembered the mage he had seen in the Doge's Palace:

"Hughes, what is your impression of the mage we saw in the corridors of the Doge's Palace. ”

Penny had a strange feeling about the handsome mage.

Although, the omen has a faint sinisterity, but overall, there is no direct malice, and if you think about it seriously, that feeling is blurred, this situation makes Penny a little baffled, but all in all, it is worth noting to be able to leave such an impression on him.

Hughes knew much more about the Mage Guild than he did, and would have been able to give him an answer, but unfortunately, his answer disappointed Penny:

"Oh, Sean, I haven't seen this mage. ”

Penny was faintly disappointed, and then his mood returned to calm, which was also normal, and Hughes could not be expected to know everything.

"He said his name was Luxendier. The girl spoke suddenly.

"Luxendier!" Hughes almost exclaimed at the sight of the name, and Penny remembered somewhere he seemed to have heard the name...... "That Searle's most famous liar?"

As a red-robed mage, Luxendil was not known for his prowess, but he was made famous by a fraud he carried out in Sambia in the West, the details of which are unknown to outsiders, but the result was that the country's polity nearly collapsed, and the famous Silver Raven Regiment and a large number of harpist scouts were involved in his elaborate deception, and both sides were killed and wounded in a battle over dominance.

Many members of the Selkok family, who controlled Sambia at the time, who opposed the import trade of Serkia's goods, died at the hands of this enchanter. Including the famous Lord of the Silver Ravens, Miklos Selkirk.

In the following days, the trading concessions of the Serles appeared on the shores of Sambia.

This deed made Lusendir famous, but at the same time, his name also appeared on the harpist's blacklist, and the hatred he had carried in the past fraud case had also led him to countless assassinations in the rest of his life, and until now, he did not dare to leave Serre easily - he knew very well how much the magical enchantment that spread over Serre had blocked him from prying eyes and tracking.

With such a character, it is difficult not to keep the majority of red-robed mages in mind.

Of course, in addition, many of the affairs of this mage also made many people talk about it, and many people were talking about how many noble beauties he had conquered in the West, thinking of this, Penny glanced at Hiccol, whose face was not very good, and remembered the situation at that time, he hugged the girl's waist and gently touched her head with his forehead.

Hiccol's heart warmed, and his expression was slightly better, Penny looked up and thought about it, and suddenly frowned: "This Luxendier...... I'm already over forty years old. ”

"Hmm...... It is said that he is a person who pays attention to his image. I guess I used some kind of spell to reside. Hughes spread his hands.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Hickel was surprised again, the mage who seemed to be in his early twenties was actually in his forties?

She shudled into Penny's arms with a chill.

"Alas...... Sean, you two have a really good relationship. Hughes complimented.

He sighed a little in his heart, and he didn't know what his fate would be.

He remembered the nun who held him in his arms and flipped through the big dictionary to teach him to read in the Hantu Library, and his eyes became dazed.

At this time, there was a commotion outside, and the three of them poked their heads out of the window and saw a large group of manned griffons flying in the sky, and gradually, more and more red-robed mages and apprentices appeared in the station.

"Oh, it seems that there are quite a few mages who want to join Darren Moore Academy. ”

"At least you have to have the title of a senior ring mentor to have a chance to take that position, huh~! Hughes sighed, spread his hands, and suddenly his eyes rolled and he remembered something: "Oh! Probably Lusendier is also here for this position, he has been obtaining that title for a while, but he has been idle, I guess he is not willing to be lonely." ”

"By the way, I don't know yet, which family interests does he represent?" Penny frowned, and then remembered that there was still the most important thing he didn't know about that mage.

"Oh, he's from House Ream. But ......," Hughes mused, as if to recall some information, "it is said that the current Ream ruler has a bad relationship with him, because since his father disappeared, they have usurped the trading concession he had established in Sambia. ”

"His father?"

"Lessosmost. Three seats of the Enchanted School, who disappeared the year before last. Hughes spread his hands: "Prophecy can't find traces of him in the main material realm, and Luxendier himself doesn't know anything, and now the reason for his disappearance is still on the task list of the relevant departments." ”

Penny nodded, knowing that it would be hard to know any more.

After a moment of relaxation, he recalled his conversation with the governor, and suddenly noticed a detail, with a piece of onion in his mouth, and raised his head: "By the way, Hughes, I remember, Sazahar seems to have a big man who may be able to help us." ”

"Big shot?" Hughes listened to Penny's words and was stunned for a moment: "This requires that person to have enough power in his hands, Penny, Sazahari has such a person?"

"Yes. Penny nodded: "Who is the commander of the Southeast Legion?" ”

"Dimarlon Townsen. Penny, this man probably won't be able to help us, he's Odyssilon's man. The expression on Hughes's face became a little weird.

"Odyssillon?" Penny's expression froze, and his heart sank, not only because Odyssillon and Bouvare were allies now, but also because his key step in entering the Mage Guild was to trap the family with a piece of evidence.

In his heart, he had a deep fear of this surname. Strengthening oneself with power and strength is not a sense of crisis caused by that incident.

"It seems that we are destined to have no political support here, so we can only go back to Eltaber and find a way?" Penny sighed, this was one of the last choices he wanted to make, and it would be difficult for someone who did not show enough value to get additional support from his family.

"Actually, Sean, this is not much of an unacceptable thing, you have been able to cast the spell of the fourth ring, and in any family, it is the object that should be paid attention to...... With that alone, you have plenty of reasons to get help. Hughes frowned, mused.

"I hope so. Penny was still worried, as Frass might have sent him elsewhere as a result...... After all, in the eyes of many people, the mountainous area of Hillen is not enough to make profits and is very dangerous, and the power of the family should not be involved.

In his opinion, he had to operate here on a certain scale and show enough strength before he could really gain the attention of the family, otherwise, his efforts during this period of time would quickly disappear.

This feeling of half-reaching is not pleasant.

He doesn't like to be seen as a pawn that can be moved around at will, especially after he has a certain amount of power.

Perhaps, there is still some stubbornness in the depths of his consciousness.

Especially after listening to Muirstantus's words, and knowing that his position was probably due to a prank idea of some big man, he wanted to stick to it, at least he should know who had thrown him here.

"Well, as for the material support, I think I can think of a way through the Holy Coin Church. Penny thought for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be difficult to get some supplies from there, but it's a little more difficult for people." ”

At this, he sighed.

Without political support, it is difficult to develop strength.

"Oh...... It sounds like you're in trouble. Suddenly, an elegant voice came from behind the screen, and several people were startled, because no one of them was aware that there was anyone else on this floor besides them.

Even Penny is the same.

He was stunned that his perception didn't even work.

Seeing a man and a woman coming out from behind the screen, Penny was even more stunned.

The red-robed mage who appeared in front of several people made the girl next to Penny seem to be frightened, and her face turned slightly pale.

Even this opening sentence sounds pretty much the same.

"You're Lord Most. Hughes and Penny stood up.

With the magical power of a High Ring Master, it would not be difficult to blind Penny's perception.

"Oh, don't be too nervous, I've heard some of your conversations. The red-robed mage, who was in his forties and still looked like a young man in his early twenties, waved his hands.

However, this sentence made the two young red robes even more worried.

It wasn't until they remembered that there was nothing in their original conversation that would have angered the mage that they were a little relieved.

It's just that I don't know if the red-robed father will be disrespectful when it comes to discussion, thinking of this, Penny hurriedly bowed: "I was rude just now, please don't blame it." ”

In fact, according to some secular morality, voyeurism is the greatest faux pas. Luxendier's eyes blinked.

At this moment, Penny felt that this mage was a little too special.

But he didn't dare to ignore it in his heart, he knew very well that this merry mage had tried to seduce his girlfriend not long ago, and more importantly, how could a well-known fraudster let him relax?

"You're laughing. Talking behind people's backs is immoral after all. Penny said respectfully.

"Well, that's not a good sound, you know, if human beings are regulated according to this morality, 99% of the people in the whole world will go to prison. Lu Sendier smiled lightly: "What's more, as a red-robed mage, it makes no sense to lead the topic to morality, young man, how about we talk about interests?"

"Interests?" Penny frowned.

"Actually, in Sazahar Province, there is another very important figure who can help you solve your dilemma, he can dispatch at least fifty red-robed mages with ranks, dozens of high-level apprentices who are currently studying and have the potential to become full-fledged red-robes, and hundreds of ordinary apprentices. Well, this position also has the autonomy of a tenth of a province, with a large population and formed legions. Luxendier sat on the stool on the side, not close to Sheckel, but it still made the girl unconsciously shrink in, the red-robed mage didn't mind, or maybe he didn't pay attention, he just looked at Penny, and smiled slightly: "But the premise is that someone can sit in that position." ”

Penny's brow furrowed, and the thought in his heart raced.

"What exactly do you want to say, Lord Most?" Hughes asked without holding back.
