"One succeeded and one failed, huh?"
Josiah walked out of the purple robe's wizard tower. Before he left, he turned around and gave the wizard tower a standard Noland wizard bow.
On the second floor of the wizard tower, a figure hiding behind a window nodded slightly at Josiah in response.
In Josh's hand was a contract written by the purple-robed sage. This contract indicated that this sage was also one of the invited guests of Nolan's Voice.
"Why do I feel like that old woman is only interested in you?"
Hiri turned around and looked at the wizard tower that reached into the clouds behind her. The sage with the highest level of spiritual and illusion inscription was a woman, and a very young one at that.
However, those who became sages had to be over a hundred years old. Noland had only experienced three changes of sages since its establishment.
Hiri did not believe that the young appearance of the purple robe was real. She must have used some kind of unspeakable illusion.
"Ahem, anyway, we still managed to get the support of a sage."
Josiah recalled the scene when he came into contact with the purple robe. With the body of a chaos demon, illusions and spiritual magic could not affect Josiah at all.
Therefore, Josiah could be sure that the young appearance of the purple robe was not an illusion. She might have used some special method to maintain her appearance.
When the young sage came into contact with Josiah, compared to Josiah's invitation, she showed more interest in Josiah himself.
Fortunately, Hiri was brave enough to block all kinds of provocative questions from the purple robe for Josiah. Only then did Josiah reluctantly agree to the contract.
"Including the gray robe, it's two against two."
Josiah handed the contract in his hand to Hiri for safekeeping. The content of the contract was not only that she was willing to be a mentor for Philosopher's Lecture, but also that she would take back the 'Abolish Television' rule.
"It's going well with the purple robe, but the red robe …" Josiah's gaze fell on Hiri's left hand. "How's your injury?"
"This … was just burned by ordinary flames."
Hiri waved her hand to indicate that there was no problem, but the spellcaster lady who had been very energetic when she was mentioned suddenly seemed a little disappointed.
Because she had completely messed up the negotiation between Josiah and the red-robed man.
The way the red-clothed man received Josiah was not as gentle as the purple-clothed man. Not only did the purple-clothed man prepare a table, but he had also prepared tea and desserts. In Hiri's eyes, he looked like a spider that had weaved its web and was waiting for its prey to come knocking on its door.
On the other hand, the man in red, who controlled the Inscription of Flame, was much more violent and simple. The moment Josiah entered his Mage Tower, he was greeted by a large number of offensive fire magic spells.
The Spell Caster lady beside Josiah stood in front of Josiah. Although this Spell Caster lady had amazing talent in actual combat, the back of her left hand was still hit by a fireball in the face of the trap set by the sage.
"I'm used to this kind of small injury." Hiri hid her left hand behind her back.
"…"
Seeing the spellcaster lady turn her head, Josiah did not continue to make things difficult for her, and directly sat in the carriage that was parked in front of the Mage Tower.
After sitting in the carriage, Hiri was also very quiet, which was rare. She opened the curtains and looked at the Philosopher's Tower in the distance where the red-clothed man was in the distance. Her eyes also unconsciously looked at the back of her left hand.
The light burn on the back of her hand had already healed under the effect of healing magic. In Hiri's eyes, this was only an injury at the level of 'graze'.
However, Josiah's performance was beyond Hiri's expectations … Because of this small injury, Josiah's conversation with the red-clothed man was over before it even started.
The gray magic that overflowed from Josiah's hand directly destroyed all the offensive magic traps in the Mage Tower. Because of this, the red-clothed man finally appeared in front of Josiah and Hiri.
Before Josiah and Hiri's visit, the grey-clothed man had already informed his colleagues that someone would be visiting their Mage Tower.
The traps in the Mage Tower were not to guard against someone, but purely to test or to tease Josiah and Hiri.
Josiah did not care about these kinds of traps that could 'not hurt' Josiah at all. However, the red-clothed man's joke was a little too much.
"Isn't the Chaos Demon's defense a little too weak?"
Hiri remembered that after the red-clothed man said this, the trace of a smile that was left on Josiah's face completely disappeared.
In its place was a confrontation between the two sides, a confrontation that did not benefit either side. In the end, the result was naturally parting on bad terms.
"Don't think too much." Josiah's voice interrupted Hiri's thoughts.
"I'm just thinking about what I'm going to eat for dinner." Hiri said.
… … …
Noland's Law Enforcement Department.
In order to confirm the whereabouts of the yellow-clothed man today, Josiah specially sent Dark Elves to follow this Sage.
The Dark Elf Qianmian once again proved to Josiah her powerful abilities as an assassin.
Even the Sage who stood at the peak of Noland's power could not detect her traces.
Josiah also smoothly arrived outside Noland's Law Enforcement Department according to the information provided by Qianmian.
"The … Law Enforcement Department."
When she alighted from the carriage, Hiri only found out that the meeting place with the yellow-clothed man was Noland's Law Enforcement Department.
"The yellow-clothed man used to be the manager of Noland's Law Enforcement Department. If we were a little later, would we be stopping the Enforcers from dismantling the 'television'?" Hiri had always thought that the Sage Assembly's proposal would take a long time to be approved and implemented.
However, the yellow-clothed man's execution efficiency was astonishing. The proposal that was raised at the Sage Assembly yesterday was directly issued to the Law Enforcement Department today.
"I hope that the Enforcers can act first." Josiah paused, then said, "This way, it won't be me stopping these Sages, but the people of Noland."
"Can the people of Noland stop the Sages' decision?"
Hiri came to Noland with her parents when she was very young. In this city, the Sage Assembly's decision was absolute.
There were almost no Spellcasters protesting or rioting. This also gave the people of Noland the impression that the Assembly's power was above everything else.
"The power of the people is the greatest at all times. Hmm … But I digressed a little."
Josiah tidied up his clothes. When he confronted the red-clothed man just now, the high temperature in the Wizard Tower still brought Josiah a lot of trouble.
However, pure magical power could not hurt Josiah at all. Through this confrontation, Josiah also understood something.
"In short, Hiri, remember this. We're not begging those Sages to let them step onto the stage of Voice of Noland. We're inviting them … If anyone wants to refuse, there's no need to hold them back." At this point, Josiah finally smiled again.
"We have to respect the thoughts of those old people. If they want to stubbornly stick to their past ideals, I can't change that. Of course, they have to bear the price in the process."
"What you want to say is, 'Our' Philosopher's Lecture Room 'doesn't lack people'?"
Hiri once again very considerately translated Josiah's long speech.
"That's right."
