After leaving Master Gan, it was already lunch time, and I was about to call the Solo brothers to join them. Unexpectedly, the two of them were already waiting outside the cafeteria, and the guy Moses was with them. When he saw Cody from a distance, he jumped and waved his hands. Cody looked helpless and could only act like a giant war beast and clear the way for a few people in front.
After eating, they left the cafeteria. Cody introduced a few people to each other and learned that Moses was actually from the imperial capital of Bor City. He had arrived at the academy three years earlier than Cody and the others. If nothing else goes wrong, he would have only two years left to graduate. . Moreover, he said that the conditions at home were very superior, which made the Solo brothers envious for a while. But on the contrary to this guy Cody, Moses, who wanted to enter the War College, was forced to go to Barton College by his family. Cody couldn't help but feel contempt in his heart, feeling that the person in front of him was also mentally ill.
While muttering, Cody took out the paper that Master Gan rewarded and handed it to Moses, wanting to see if he knew what the paper was. When Moses saw the paper, he grabbed it and opened it carefully. Seeing that it was full of mysterious patterns and tadpole-like words, he exclaimed that he wanted to buy it, as long as Cody told the price.
Cody snatched the paper back from Moses' hand, carefully rolled it up and put it away, and said angrily: "I just let you take a look, and I didn't say I wanted to sell it. How can I be so excited? Besides, this is what Master Gan gave me. Mine can't be sold." From Moses' actions, although he didn't know what it was, it was definitely very precious, "By the way, you haven't told me what it is yet?"
"You don't know what this is?" Moses looked at the paper that was put away reluctantly, and said with a curl of his lips: "I almost forgot that you have just entered school and haven't learned the magic scroll yet, so the senior will give you an understanding in advance. To make a magic scroll, you need at least a magician to make it successfully. There is a magic sealed in the scroll. Generally speaking, it only requires mental power to trigger it before it can be cast. As for how strong the magic is, you will not know until it is released. However, the stronger the magician who makes it, the more powerful the magic scroll will be. However, the materials for making magic scrolls are very precious and very difficult. It is difficult for ordinary magicians to make them successfully, so the power of magic scrolls is average. It won't be weak unless there is a flaw in the scroll.
"The value of a magic scroll is also difficult to estimate, especially for a great mage like Master Gan. If you take out any scroll, countless people will fight for it. I really don't know what kind of shit luck your kid has stepped on. To have one.”
Great Magister?
In the past few days, Cody has been learning about magicians in addition to meditating. Naturally, he also knows the divisions of magicians. A person like himself is just a magic apprentice. Only those who can successfully cast three basic magics can be rated. Low-level magicians, those who can cast three intermediate magics are high-level magicians, and those who can use one high-level magic are high-level magicians. As for the wizards and magisters behind, Cody didn't know how to differentiate them. But starting from the magicians, for some magic, there is no need to coordinate the spell, and it can only be cast with a thought.
But this was the first time Cody had heard of the title of Grand Magister, and he looked at Moses in confusion.
Moses also knew Cody's doubts, shrugged his shoulders, and said with a wry smile: "Don't look at me, I don't know what a great mage is. I just heard others say that Master Gan is a great mage. Although I don't know about Gan No matter how strong the master is, he is definitely much stronger than the tutors in the academy. I saw that the only few magisters in the academy had special respect for Master Gan when they met him, with admiration in their eyes."
Seeing that Moses didn't seem to be lying to him, Cody gave up the idea of continuing to ask and said, "You just said you wanted to buy my magic scroll. Tell me what price you can pay."
Moses was a little embarrassed and said with a wry smile: "If it's just an ordinary magic scroll, I can pay 10,000 gold coins, which is also the common price of a basic scroll. But for a scroll made by Master Gan, I really can't estimate it. Anyway, I'm sure I can’t afford it.”
The three of them were so surprised that they couldn't shut up. The Solo brothers didn't expect that such a strange piece of paper could be worth so much money. After all, they had never thought about this number. Cody, on the other hand, was shocked by Moses' wealth. He didn't expect this seemingly unreliable senior to be so rich. Ten thousand gold coins, I don't dare to think about it. Not to mention myself, I'm afraid even my father doesn't dare to imagine it. Although the family is not short of money, it does not run various businesses like other nobles, so it is not particularly wealthy. Moreover, Oliya is very strict about the family's finances, so the amount of rand is almost the same as that of Cody.
Moses, who accidentally exposed his wealth, realized that he had told the truth when he saw the expressions of the three people. However, the three people looked surprised and thought it didn't matter, "Don't think too much. Seniors must be rich, but it's not as you imagine." There are so many. If you really want to come up with 10,000 gold coins, you will definitely not be able to get it for a while, and it will take a long time to collect the money."
Several people were unconvinced about Moses' words. Ten thousand gold coins was not a small amount, and it was indeed impossible to take it out immediately. But I still feel incredible about Moses' wealth. They are all about the same age, and there is really a lot of difference in their pockets.
They said goodbye quickly. Although they were all students, they lived in different buildings. After making an appointment to meet at dinner time, Moses waved and walked towards another dormitory under Cody's face.
There is a lunch break at noon every day, and there is no need to go to class until the afternoon. The three returned to the room. Cody carefully placed the magic scroll and fell on the bed to sleep. Because of the gap between themselves and Cody, the Solo brothers were unwilling to let go of any time they could meditate, so they sat down on the bed and began to meditate. After all, it's been so long and I still can't show off my magic.
In fact, they don't know that their talents are still very good. Although they are not as good as Cody in terms of elemental affinity, they are still better than many people, but their mental strength is weak. This has something to do with their childhood life and their own self-confidence. The two of them had low self-esteem and lacked confidence. Faced with Cody's talent every day, they even lacked confidence. No matter how hard they tried, they would always fall short of something crucial.
In the afternoon, the three of them arrived in the classroom early to wait for the afternoon class. They were half lying on the table. The sleepy Cody was woken up by the two brothers and half dragged here. Cody really didn't know that they had to come so early. What are you doing? It's almost half an hour before class starts. Really unable to bear the drowsiness, I lay down on the table and slept for half an hour.
Lily always arrives in class on time and never comes a minute early. She doesn't seem to have much energy in the afternoon. She half-closes her eyes like Cody, and just repeats what she said in the morning, and then lets the students ask their own questions. Zoro wanted to raise his hand several times, but gave up after hesitating. As for Cody, he just started sleeping with his eyes open. I don’t know why, but he was extra sleepy today, maybe because he was carrying a treasure worth tens of thousands of gold coins. There is no need to pursue anything in life anymore.
The first day of life at Barton College passed like this. I felt like I had learned a lot, but at the same time I felt like I had learned nothing except a basic magic spell.
The next day, the three experienced people stopped snoozing and went to the cafeteria early to have breakfast. When they left after eating, they felt comfortable watching the students who came in as late as yesterday and could only chew steamed buns. Among them, And Moses looked at the three of them with a look of resentment.
In the classroom, there were a few fewer people today than yesterday. Cody and the three of them could just sit at the front. Although it was useless, it could at least show that they were studying hard.
Lily had just started explaining today's knowledge when suddenly there was a knock on the door and she said with a cold face, "Come in." I saw Moses sticking his head through the crack of the door with a look of embarrassment and fear. Before Lily could speak, he quickly said: "Teacher Lily, Master Gan is looking for Cody."
Master Gan is looking for Cody again? Didn’t you just look for it yesterday? Lily looked at Cody thoughtfully.
Cody was also very confused as to why Master Gan was looking for him again. Could it be that he had regretted it and wanted to take the magic scroll back? But it seems that Master Gan is not that kind of person, and although he doesn’t know what the situation is, it seems that he won something from the old man yesterday, didn’t he?
Lily had nothing to say to Master Gan and could only tell Cody to go quickly.
Cody left the classroom and followed Moses, smelling: "Why is Master Gan looking for me again this time?"
Moses was helpless: "If you ask me, who should I ask? Master Gan and I have only met a few times and have never spoken. However, Master Gan gave you a magic scroll yesterday, and maybe he will give you something else today." . You know the place. Go there by yourself. I still have to go to class. I don’t know what my bad luck is. I’m caught and summoned every day, which makes me late several times. By the way, remember to wait for me at the door of the cafeteria when you’re eating. I woke up late in the morning and only had half a steamed bun left, and now I’m starving to death.”
Cody followed yesterday's route to the place and knocked on the door first. After a while, the old butler Ji Fu opened the door, saw Cody outside the door, and said with a smile: "The young man is here, come in quickly, Master Gan is already waiting for you upstairs."
As he said that, he led Cody into the attic. When he arrived at the second floor, it was still the same room as yesterday. Jifu motioned Cody to go in at the door, "Master Gan has told me, you can just go in by yourself."
"Thank you, Steward Jifu." Cody thanked him. After Jifu left, he opened the door and went in. He saw Master Gan holding a book and was fascinated by it. He whispered twice but there was no response. Cody could only He stood there and looked at the entire room. Fortunately, it didn't take long for Master Gan to put down the book in his hand. Only then did he find Cody and said slightly apologetically: "Sit down."
Cody walked to the chair in front of Master Gan and sat down carefully, fearing that Master Gan would be unhappy and have him take back the magic scroll. "I wonder what Master Gan wants to see me for?"
Master Gan did not answer Cody, but asked: "How do you feel after two days in the academy."
Cody didn't know what Master Gan meant, and replied: "It feels very good, very different from what I originally imagined. And the class is free, and Teacher Lily teaches very well."
"Lily? Your current mentor is this child. Speaking of which, I haven't seen her for a long time. This child has good talent, but his temper is unstable and he is too playful. Otherwise, he should have reached the level of a wizard."
child? Cody didn't expect Master Gan to call Lily, who looked thirty years old, this way, but looking at Master Gan's energetic but old appearance, Lily was indeed a child to him.
"Cody, tell me what you think of magicians." Master Gan continued.
After pondering for a while and thinking about it, Cody bit the bullet and started to answer: "Mysterious, noble, I don't know the rest. By the way, there is also wealth."
Master Gan was stunned by Cody's answer, and then said with a smile: "That's right. After all, your contact time is too short and you don't have a real understanding yet. Then I will tell you, in addition to what you said, there are Powerful. Magicians communicate and use the power between heaven and earth, and the power and destructive power they can cause is unmatched by anyone, because we are like the controllers of heaven and earth. But not all magicians can possess this power , only the more powerful magicians can access and possess it."
"Like the Grand Magister?" Cody murmured.
Master Gan looked at Cody and narrowed his eyes and said: "Yes, for example, the Great Mage. Once a magician reaches the level of a magician, his strength will rise qualitatively, especially in terms of destruction. A powerful magic A magician can even be stronger than an army. The nobility of magicians is not because of their scarcity, but because of our power. Whether it is an individual, a certain force or even an empire, they are all longing for and fearing our power, so Barton College can In the back mountains of the imperial capital, the safest place is to survive, because the academy will cultivate countless sharp swords for the empire."
Cody didn't quite understand why the location of Barton Academy was the safest, but when he learned about the magician's power for the first time, he still couldn't imagine that a person fighting against an army was still a human being?
While Cody was still in a daze, Master Gan stood up, stretched his right hand downward toward Cody, and said in a deep voice: "Now, Cody, are you willing to become a disciple of me, the great mage 'Gan Ross'?"
