The red-clothed man's wizard tower.
Recently, the red-clothed man had not been in a good mood. The main reason was that his opinions in the Sage Council were increasingly ignored.
The other four sages seemed to be possessed as they supported the development of the Weave in Noland, but they seemed to have forgotten who its creator was.
Even the yellow-clothed man, who was on the red-clothed man's side, had turned against him. This was a huge blow to him.
This anger affected the red-clothed man's assessment of the apprentices today.
The red-clothed man's 16 apprentices placed the inscription stones they had made in front of him. The red-clothed man walked up to the first apprentice and picked up the red inscription stone to examine.
"The mana content is too low. Throwing this thing out will only tickle others! Unqualified! "
The red-clothed man threw the inscription stone back into the hands of the first apprentice, giving him an evaluation that was enough to make him feel despair.
The inscription stones of the flame inscription system had a large market all over the world. They were used to store spells. Once there was a crisis, they could be used as an emergency measure and be smashed. The inscription magic within would be released in an instant.
Thus, this type of inscription stone was very popular among merchants and explorers. However, it was extremely difficult to make an inscription stone with great destructive power and quality.
"It's too unstable. If you shake this thing a little, you probably won't be able to see your arm again."
The red-clothed man directly crushed the inscription stone made by the second apprentice. The moment the inscription stone was crushed, it exploded with scorching mana. However, the red-clothed man held it in his hand and instantly calmed it down.
After the red-clothed man finished examining the apprentice and gave him another unqualified evaluation, a red-robed spellcaster quickly ran into the red-clothed man's wizard tower.
"Gru, you're late!" The red-clothed man glared at the apprentice whose face was flushed red. He looked like he had run all the way here, and he couldn't even breathe as he spoke.
"There was an accident during the production of the inscription stone, mentor." He immediately placed the inscription stone used for the assessment on the table and said, "But it can be considered a success."
The man in red suppressed his anger and picked up the inscription stone on the table.
The acolyte in front of him was one of the weakest among his 16 acolytes. The red-clothed man had already decided to give him a failing evaluation.
"Green flame core?"
The man in red scrutinized the inscription stone. The fire spell sealed in the inscription stone was the most common spell, Fiery Eruption, but the fire element burning inside was dark green.
"The magic power content is up to standard. Stability … Gru! When you made this inscription stone, what medium did you use to write the inscription? "
The red-clothed man instantly sensed the abnormality of the inscription stone and stared at the apprentice in front of him.
"This …" He hesitated for a moment before saying softly, "It's the scale of a sinful demon."
When he mentioned the word 'sin fiend', he could vaguely hear the other apprentices talking among themselves.
Ever since Beauty and the Devil was released in Noland, the Noland Spellcasters had a deeper understanding of the Sinful Devil.
However, no matter how elegant Zenas acted as the Demon Prince, the power of the sinful demons was undeniable.
"You asked the mercenary group in Noland to get the scale? They hunted the sinful demons there? "The red-clothed man immediately asked.
Most of the alchemy materials used by alchemists came from the alchemy market in Noland.
However, the materials that could be bought in the alchemy market were the most common ones. Skilled alchemists would specially hire mercenary groups to go deep into dangerous places that no one had ever set foot in. They would hunt some dangerous monsters and obtain the alchemy materials from them.
The combat power of the sinful demons was second only to that of the giant dragons, not to mention that there were no wild sinful demons around Noland!
"I didn't ask a mercenary group, mentor … I bought it on the Mana Net," he answered truthfully.
"Mana Net?!"
The red-clothed man once again heard this annoying term.
"Writing credit on the Mana Net, holding meetings of the Sage Conference, and now even alchemy materials can be collected on the Mana Net?!"
The apprentices looked at the red-clothed man's indignant expression and didn't know what to say. The apprentice called Gru carefully took out a sinful demon's scale.
"Mentor, this is a sinful demon's scale I bought on the Mana Net," he said.
The red-clothed man took the scale and studied it for a long time. The scale was only the length of an index finger.
Judging from the time, it should have been separated from its owner for a long time, but there was still a green flame lingering in the scale.
The sinful fire … was a flame that could directly burn the soul of any living creature. It was far more terrifying than ordinary flames.
"It's even more stable than the bark of the Wicked Fire Tree?" The red-clothed man looked at the scale in disbelief.
"Mentor, if you need it, I can buy some more for you."
The apprentice knew that the red-clothed man hated things related to the Mana Net. Since the red-clothed man wasn't willing to use the Mana Net, he could give the scales he bought on the Mana Net to the red-clothed man.
This was a perfect suggestion to outsiders, but the red-clothed man didn't appreciate it.
Did buying with the help of an apprentice mean that he didn't need the Mana Net?
Of course, the red-clothed man knew that he was lying to himself!
He held the sinful demon's scale and made a choice between his love for alchemy and his reputation in the Sage Conference.
"You're all using the Mana Net?"
The red-clothed man's gaze swept across the 16 apprentices in front of him.
"Tell me the truth!"
All of the apprentices nodded in unison and prepared to accept their punishment.
However, the red-clothed man's expected punishment didn't come. Instead, the sage sighed helplessly.
"Is this the 'trend' that the yellow-clothed man was talking about?" The red-clothed man compromised after a short moment of silence, "Gru, is the shop on the Mana Net in the spellcaster forum?"
"No, Mentor … That's a separate interface called Magic Net Shopping … There's a shop called 'Demon Realm Alchemy Workshop'. Not only do they sell the scales of sinful demons, but they also sell sinful fire crystals …" Seeing that his mentor was asking about this, the apprentice continued, "But Mentor, you have to go to the Norland Nation's Reserve Bank first to open an account with the Magic Net Reserve Bank, and then deposit money into that account before you can buy anything there."
"How troublesome."
The red-clothed man grumbled impatiently and went to the next apprentice.
"Continue the test! Let me see the inscription stone you've made! "
The test lasted for less than half an hour. Nearly half of the apprentices were eliminated, and the one called Gru was lucky enough to pass.
