In fact, the blonde man was not the only one who had doubts about the Magician. Lolo was the main character of this ambush. She only needed to think for a moment to come up with a list of suspicious points about a certain someone.
For example, how did he know that the two-headed wolf was not hostile, so he confidently instigated her to throw away the sword in her hand in exchange for the wolf king's goodwill. Another example would be why he was the only one who appeared to be very calm from the beginning to the end in that kind of situation. Besides, it was only now that the rookie Hero noticed that after a night of trekking, even Captain Hansen, who had the best physique among the group, had a hint of fatigue on his face. However, the young man now looked to be in high spirits and his face was glowing. It was as if he had just finished making a big treasure sword.
"That's strange. What's the theory behind this? Why are you getting more and more energetic as you walk?!"
"That … Doesn't everyone say that life is about movement?" Rob realized that his talent for bullsh * t had increased ever since he escaped from the Academy of Magic. Now, when faced with the rookie The Brave Rookie's questioning, the Magister could already talk without batting an eyelid.
Lolo rolled her eyes. "Speaking of which, I don't think I've asked about your background?"
The Magician shrugged. "As you can see, I was born here. Ryan is where I grew up. Our family of three made a living by running the only grocery store in town. Then, my mother passed away in an accident. When I was eight, I went on a study tour to get away from my father who was addicted to gambling. I only came back recently. You can ask any native of Ryan on the street. They will tell you everything."
"Study tour? Where? What do you want to study? "The rookie The Brave Rookie felt that he had grasped the key point.
"I'm studying the history of the continent at the Peter Royal Academy of Arts in the Lionheart Empire. My teacher is Mr. Tobias, if you want to know." The things that came out of Rob's mouth were basically the same as when he was talking to Kenneth, just a little more refined.
Most of the content was true. Only the most important part, the Royal College of Magic and Magic, had been secretly exchanged by him for studying at Peter's Royal College of Arts, which indirectly explained his rich knowledge.
That's right. After some consideration, the youth felt that it would not be good for him to keep a low profile if he wanted to stay in the party. After all, a good-for-nothing who only wanted to take advantage of others would be looked down upon no matter where he went. On the other hand, people would understand if a person with a particular skill was a little less popular.
This time, it was Lolo's turn to be stunned. "Scholar? Are you a scholar?! "
The status of scholars on the Dawn Continent might not be as high as that of mages, but they were still a highly respected profession. In terms of combat power, most of them were even weaker than ordinary people, but they were known for their profound knowledge and keen insight. Most of them regarded improving the miserable situation of the people at the bottom of society as their lifelong goal, and they enjoyed high prestige among the civilians.
At the same time, scholars were also very popular among the ruling class. The nobles hoped to use the rich knowledge and excellent minds of scholars to solve the problems in their territories, make their territories more prosperous, stable, and prosperous, and have more people and wealth.
The rise of every empire was not accidental. The strength of a country did not only rely on military strength, but also reflected in all aspects of economy, culture, and political system. The importance of scholars was self-evident.
To any power, scholars were an extremely valuable resource, and the Mr. Tobias that the young man mentioned was a master among masters. Furthermore, he was a great sage who had truly racked his brains for the rise of the human race. From the emperor and the duke to the common folk, everyone would respect his name from the bottom of their hearts. If anyone dared to speak ill of Mr. Tobias in a teahouse or a bathhouse, they would have to be prepared to be beaten up by the customers around them.
Tobias's "The Wealth of Nations" and "The Rise and Fall of Empires" were known as the must-read books for rulers. Every person in power had to read them. Even the elves and dwarves had found people to translate these two books.
Lolo did not expect the youth to be the student of this master. In that case, he could be called a famous teacher with a great student.
No wonder his skills were so poor. He did not even go through basic militia training. Scholars were a group of people who did not excel in martial arts. They were better at using their brains to solve all kinds of problems.
The rookie Hero couldn't help but blush when he thought about how he had been ordering a Scholar around like a follower along the way and how he had been suppressing him with his martial arts.
Rob, on the other hand, did not seem to mind. "Who asked me to owe you money? It's only right to repay a debt. As long as I can repay the debt, it's not a big deal to be your follower for a period of time."
However, the doubts in Lolo's heart were not completely eliminated. It was not that she doubted Mr. Tobias's greatness, but other than being a genius in the continent's history, philosophy, politics, economics, sociology, and ancient languages, did the old man also have research on the Two-headed Demon Wolf? But wasn't this cunning creature that was born with the ability to use magic the most interesting research subject for mages?
"Hmm, that's a good question … If I have the time to return to the Peter Royal Academy of Literature, I'll definitely ask my teacher for you." The youth's nonchalant reply made the girl feel as if she had punched cotton.
Luo Bu realized that Mr. Tobias was a very useful shield. The old man's reputation was strong, and he had many students. In the eyes of the people, he was almost a legend, a synonym for omniscient and omniscient. If there was anything that couldn't be explained with common sense, the old man could basically solve it.
As expected, after knowing that he was Mr. Tobias's disciple, the other members of the team looked at him in a completely different light. Although the Magician Your Honor was still trash in their eyes, no one treated him as trash anymore.
In fact, strictly speaking, the future Supreme Magician Your Honor was not completely lying. Tobias was indeed half his teacher.
Steins and Demain had locked him up in the Mage Tower for a few years. During that time, the Supreme Magician Your Honor was afraid that the youth would become stupid or have some problems with his worldview. Not only would he not become the hope of the human race in the future, but he would also run out and harm society.
Thus, the two of them specially went to the Peter Royal Academy of Literature to invite the highly respected Grand Scholar Tobias, hoping that he could give Rob psychological counseling and political lessons.
However, the old man was worthy of being called a master of his generation. After they met, he didn't say a single word of reason. Instead, he used the excuse of going to class to take the youth out to play wildly for two days. It wasn't until the last afternoon that the old man and the youth were fishing by the lake. The sun was about to set, but Luo Bu still hadn't had enough. Only then did Tobias unhurriedly enter the main topic.
