Chapter 0006 Dascar City Mage Guild

At dawn, the weather is clear, and the bright and transparent sky is like a flawless blue crystal. The rapid sound of horse hooves breaks through the tranquility of the morning and awakens Li Xun from his meditation.

Looking at the getting closer and closer Dascar City, Li Xun smiled bitterly. This will be the first step he took, a very important step. Dascar City is the closest city he can find with the base of the Mage Guild. The limited money he has on his body is not allowed to pick. Whether he can become a mage successfully indicates whether he can have an identity as a public event, which is particularly important!

Li Xun calmed down. He hired this shabby carriage from Yongwang Town and ran for 2 days and 2 nights before coming to the nearest city. After entering the city, he probably only had 2 silver coins and 5 copper coins. It seems that he needs to find a way to get some money as soon as possible!

After paying the tax on entering the city, Li Xun ordered the carriage to come straight to the wizard guild.

Located in the southwest corner of Dascar City, the Mage Guild is an independent 5-story tower. The whole is made of huge blue stones. Each floor has narrow and long windows, and the spire is a platform.

The carriage drove directly to the main entrance of the tower of the Master Guild. It was deserted and there was no pedestrian. Li Xun walked off the carriage with empty hands, without any luggage. He paid half of the remaining fare to the coachman and finished the two. The cheerful coachman turned his head, Li Xun took a deep breath and walked into the tower calmly.

The tower covers a wide area, and opposite the entrance is a wide hall. There is a large wooden counter in a corner of the hall. A young man in a short robe is looking up at him in shock.

Li Xun calmly walked to the counter and asked, "I need a mage level appraisal, can I apply for it here?"

The young man was even more surprised when he heard this. Looking at Li Xun, who was younger than him and wearing a simple traveler robe, asked in surprise: "Sir, do you think you want to conduct a mage level appraisal?"

After receiving a positive answer, the young man quickly put away his expressions he shouldn't have and bowed respectfully and said: "Dear sir, I am Annell, the apprentice of the wizard. Currently, the mages that are permanently resident in the wizard tower include the 13th-level flame wizard, the 9th-level intermediate wizard, and the 8th-level intermediate wizard, the wizard Link. Since the wizard is busy with magic research, the usual mage appraisal is led by the wizard and the wizard Link. They are all here today. Who are you planning to invite as your appraiser?"

Li Xun smiled indifferently and said, "Hello, Annell, you are familiar with everything here. Please help me choose an appraiser!"

The apprentice of the mage Annell raised his eyes and answered without hesitation: "Dear sir, Master Colon is kind, Master Link is strict, it would be better for you to choose Master Colon."

Li Xun nodded and said, "Then please inform Master Colon!"

The apprentice of the wizard Annell nodded and turned around and picked up a communication crystal: "Dear Master Colon, there is a gentleman in the hall that needs to be used as a mage appraisal. Please take the time to come down."

Before the arrival of Master Colon, Annell briefly introduced the basic situation of the Mage Tower to Li Xun and asked Li Xun to fill out a simple form about his personal information.

Not long after, two middle-aged mages walked into the front hall together. They were both wearing orthodox black mage robes, one with a dark face, low and chunky face, and the one with a round robe; the other with a white and tall, slender eyes, and a look of always thinking.

The short and fat mage introduced himself: "I am Master Colon, this is Master Link. No one has conducted mage appraisals here for more than a year. Today, we will be the appraiser together!"

After seeing the ceremony, Li Xun and the two mages followed the two mages through the hall and walked into an independent room along the corridor. The room was not big, with exquisite magic patterns depicting the walls around them. The middle area of ​​the room was a circle made of stone, and various magic patterns were also painted on it.

Master Colron looked at the form and waved his hand and said, "Mr. Li Xun, please stand in the middle of the ring."

Li Xun quietly walked into the ring and turned around to show that he was ready.

Master Link, who had not spoken, raised his hand and the magic power fluctuations came out. The magic patterns on the ring began to light up one after another. When they were connected into one, the magic barrier centered on the ring quietly formed.

Mage Colron ordered: "Don't be nervous. This is a magic barrier barrier barrier to prevent your spell from harming this room. Now, Mr. Li Xun, you need to cast 2 highest-level spells you master. We will identify your level based on your casting situation. Mr. Li Xun, if you are ready, you can start casting spells!"

Li Xun looked at the magic barrier, calmed down, stretched out his hand, sensed the runes in his soul, and shouted: "Magic Arrow!" With a point, the hissing sound broke, and a fist-sized depression appeared in the magic barrier that rose in the ring, and turned into ripples and spread. A few seconds later, the barrier returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

Mage Colon nodded with a smile, looked at Mage Link, and commented: "It's very good. It should be a variant of the "magic missile"? Its attack power is far higher than that of ordinary level 1 magic. Mr. Li Xun, you can use this magic so skillfully. Congratulations, you are already a qualified mage!"

Master Link calmly reminded: "Mr. Li Xun, you can cast the second spell!"

Li Xun nodded and saluted Master Link, then raised his hand and pointed at the ground 5 meters away, pretending to behave and chanted a vague spell, and finally shouted softly: "Ranshilizu."

With a low cry, a cross-shaped jungle of ground thorn on the ground at the point of finger suddenly burst out nearly 1 meter. Each thorn is as thick as a bowl, and gradually becomes thinner upwards. The entire spell lasts about 5 seconds, and then turns into free earth elements in the air and disintegrate and slowly disappears.

Mage Colron frowned, hesitated and looked at Mage Link, and said slowly: "What you just cast should be the enhanced mutant spell of "Earth Spear" which is much smaller than the second-level "Earth Spear Spur" and its power is no weak in first-level group spells. Mr. Li Xun, I officially announced here that you did not use any external objects when casting spells. You relied entirely on your own magic to release a single first-level spell. A group of nearly second-level spells, and cast quickly, meeting the standards of a level 4 mage. I, Colron, I have confirmed that you are a level 4 mage. Do you have any objections?"

Li Xun bowed and bowed: "Thanks to Masters Colon and Master Link, I have no objection to the identification results."

Mage Colon nodded, took out the parchment paper filled in the hall, and stroked it lightly with his fingers below, leaving his own mage mark, and then handed it to Mage Link, leaving the mage mark.

After the certificate was completed, Colon and Mage Link became enthusiastic immediately.

Colon smiled and signaled to Link. Master Link took out two pieces of parchment from his pocket and introduced to Li Xun: "Master Li Xun, congratulations on becoming a member of the mage group. Since you have been identified as a mage in the Dascar City Mage Guild, I have 2 contracts here, and you can make a choice if you consider it.

One is a contract of the Magister Guild Association. If you are willing to become a direct magister of the Magister Guild, you can read spell books of the same level as you at all magister Guild resident locations for free and enjoy the treatment of a direct magister. After completing 3 designated tasks in the Magister Guild guild every year, you can use the Magister Guild Laboratory in quantitative terms.

Another contract is the Novis Principality Contract. If you are willing to become a wizard of the Principality Contract, you will receive generous treatment and read all books and materials in public libraries in the Principality for free. You are not usually bound by the Principality, but when the Principality is facing a crisis, you need to provide spell support without threatening your life.

Of course, if you are unwilling to choose between two, you can only become a wandering mage!”

Li Xun thought for a moment and chose to become a contract wizard of the Principality. After carefully reading the contract clauses, he signed his own name and learned from the two wizards that left his personal imprint.

Mage Colon waved his fingers, used a short-range messaging technique, and said a few words softly. After a while, Mage Apprentice Annell walked in quickly.

Mage Colon handed the parchment to Annell and ordered him to go to the warehouse to get the treatment of a level 4 mage of the Principality of Novis, and put the certificate into the warehouse archive.

Annell peeked at Li Xun a few times, his face was shocked, and he didn't dare to say anything. He replied nonchalantly, took the parchment certificate, and then walked away in a hurry.

Master Kron smiled and said, "Master Li Xun, you are very surprised! Most of the people who have been appraised by mages here in the past are mage apprentices. It would be great to be able to successfully become a formal mage of level 1. It is rare to become a level 4 mage like you. You are still so young, if you work hard, you will quickly enter the ranks of intermediate mages."

Master Link also quipped: "It's a pity that you don't want to become a direct magistrate of the guild! It seems that you don't want to be too restricted, but in comparison, the direct magistrates of the guild are far more favorable than those of the priest contract mages, and magic books are not comparable to those of a small priest library. If you are willing to sacrifice some freedom, you will find that you get much more than you lose."

Li Xun smiled bitterly and said, "Thank you for your kindness. I feel that the Principal Contract Master is more suitable for me."

Mage Colon shrugged and stopped persuading: "How to choose is your power. Since you have completed the appraisal here, there are still appropriate preferential treatments. If you have taken a fancy to the magic books or expect some help in the mage guild, you can exchange them for it by paying a fee. Of course, the price is also quite expensive! Without a big family, the cost of learning spells will make any mage cry."

During the conversation, Annell had retrieved all the items, and Mage Colon handed them to Li Xun one by one. A mage badge, a gray mage robe, a small dimensional bag, and a purse with 300 gold coins.

Mage Colon explained: "The Mage Badge is a standard badge issued by the Mage Guild, representing the glory of the Mage. The four gold lines above represent your level. With it, you can enjoy basic noble privileges in all human kingdoms in Kline. The Mage Robe, a small dimension bag and 300 gold coins are the basic treatment of the contracted mage of the Principal of Novis. As for the details, you need to go to the Dascar City Council Hall to discuss with Sir Edward. In addition, as a Mage, you have the right to use most of the facilities of this Mage Guild, but you are not a direct magistrate of the guild, and the usage fee still needs to be paid. You can go to the hall to ask for the fee. In short, everything you don't know can be asked at the reception desk of the hall."

After explaining some matters in routine, the two mages returned to their laboratory directly. Li Xun packed up his things and returned to the reception counter in the lobby.

The apprentice of the wizard Annell respectfully bowed: "Congratulations, Master Li Xun, please give me instructions if you have any needs. Annell is willing to serve you."

Li Xun asked directly: "Hello, Annell, I just arrived here today. I don't know what the situation is here. Can you briefly introduce it?"

"I am happy to serve you." Annell, a wizard apprentice, replied: "There are currently two intermediate mages responsible for daily affairs in the Mage Tower, and five low-level mages. Among them are three direct guild mages, one Novis Principal Contract Mage, and a wandering mage. They spend most of their time in libraries or laboratories and rarely go out. If you want to communicate with them, you can only make an appointment in advance and I will convey it as soon as possible. If you have not arranged accommodation, you can live in the Mage Tower, which costs 2 gold coins per day, and daily purchases can also be assigned to the mage apprentice on duty. Your contract has been sent to the City Council Hall. You will take the time to visit Sir Edward of the City Council Hall in the near future and will officially become the contract mage mage in the Principality."
