GOR Chapter 172: Easy Capture
For Chairman Doug of Yago, he was now faced with a difficult problem.
With no way out, Du Wei used a bottle of potion and successfully simulated a high level space-time magic! The old guys were all big-name magicians with keen eyes, but they couldn't see any flaws at all.
Doug of Yago suddenly felt that he had miscalculated. He had lifted a stone and smashed it in his own foot! He was originally 100% sure that this little guy would never be able to pass this "additional question". Even Master Alley who has been immersed in this field for his entire life couldn't do it. Alley's strength is widely recognized, and even Doug of Yago has to admit defeat in the field of potion making.
But even though it was obviously impossible, Du Wei did it without any effort. Moreover, he did it impeccably.
So what's next?
Do I really have to give the title of "The Continent's Number One Potion Maker" to this little Du Wei?
This wasn't an ordinary title!
Although the profession of Potion Maker is of little value in the magic circle. But ….. after all, if you have the title of "The Continent's Number One", then the meaning is completely different!
With this title, wouldn't it be equivalent to the Magician's Guild officially recognizing Du Wei as the continent's number one in a certain field of magic?
This kind of situation is something that Doug of Yago absolutely does not want to see.
Not to mention being the continent's number one potion maker.
Taking ten thousand steps back. Even if you are an artisan, a blacksmith, a tailor, or even a blacksmith, if you have the title of "The Continent's Number One". That is no small matter!
If you can get such a title in any field, then you can be considered a master!!
Du Wei's qualifications as a potion maker are unquestionable. No one would be stupid enough to think that this young Duke only has the strength of an ordinary potion maker. If you give him the title of "The Continent's Number One Potion Maker". Then wouldn't it be equivalent to the Magician's Guild fully affirming his strength?
Continent's Number One!
This is the "Continent's Number One"!!
But the words had already been spoken. As the chairman of the Magician's Guild, he couldn't go back on his words.
Helpless, Doug Jago could only brace himself and look at Du Wei, forcing a smile, "Sir Mage Du Wei … The knowledge you displayed in pharmaceutics was indeed an eye-opener. The magic simulated by potions is indeed extraordinary. If that's the case … "
The chairman turned around and walked back to his room. After a while, he took out a piece of pale yellow parchment.
This was an official document from the Magician's Guild, which recognized Du Wei's qualifications as a magician.
On this official document was Du Wei's name and his title as a Magician: Magic Apothecary.
After that, Doug Yago passed the document to the few old fellows beside him. "Mages, as the host of this assessment, please sign here."
To Du Wei's surprise, the first one to reach out and take the document wasn't Alley.
Instead, it was the old man named Ilneis. With a smile, the old man took the parchment and took out a bald quill from his chest. Licking the quill in his mouth, he signed his name on the paper.
The second one to sign was Alley. Looking deeply at Du Wei for a while, Alley sighed and patted Du Wei's shoulder: "Very good! Boy, what I couldn't do, you actually did it. I'm very pleased and envious of you. If possible, I would like to know the formula of your potion. I can only smell six potions, but I don't understand how these six potions can produce such a miraculous effect when mixed together … Oh, you don't have to worry, I won't force you to hand over the formula. If possible, I'm willing to give you anything in exchange for the formula! "
With that, Alley also signed his name on the paper.
Looking at this old madman, Du Wei couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Exchange the formula?
Crazy 'Ole gave Du Wei a lot of benefits. The multicolored stone was given to him by Crazy 'Ole, the method to make the flying broom, and the formula to replace the mithril … All of these things were given to him by Du Wei. That day in Crazy 'Ole's laboratory, Du Wei really learned a lot. In the end, Alley also gave Du Wei a lot of magic materials. Among them, there were many precious magic plants and other rare things.
To put it bluntly, if Du Wei really had such a formula, then even if it was to repay the old man, he would give it to him for free! Not in exchange.
Unfortunately, Du Wei himself knew that this wasn't a potion that was made by someone else. It was completely dependent on the "fountain of youth". It's just that it's not convenient to tell Alley the truth.
The third one to sign was Leonid. Although this guy didn't like Du Wei, the truth was in front of him. Although he was bitter and mean, he was still a real person. He didn't do anything else and simply signed his name.
Finally, Doug Jago took back the parchment and personally wrote his name. Finally, he stretched out his finger and drew a few lines on the parchment. A faint magic mark was gently imprinted on the document.
"This document, I'll have someone keep it in the Magician's Guild. Sir Du Wei, from now on, you have a legal status in the Magician's Guild." The president paused for a moment, then suddenly had a difficult look on his face: "But, your badge …"
It's reasonable to say that after signing the document, the next step is to give out the badge. All the decent magician badges, even the lowest level magician, have a magic mark on it. On one hand, it's to show the magician's identity, and on the other hand, it's to prevent others from forging the badge and impersonating it.
However, a potioneer's badge is much more ordinary.
The most embarrassing thing is that Doug Jago didn't have a potioneer badge in his hand.
This is a very natural thing. As the president of the Magician's Guild, even if he was preparing to preside over a certain magician's assessment, he would certainly be a senior magician. He absolutely wouldn't run over to preside over a potioneer's assessment, and even more wouldn't give a badge to a potioneer that everyone looks down on.
Therefore, in the president's office, there's no such thing prepared.
Moreover … … As the "continent's number one potioneer", how can Du Wei's badge be the same as before?
Chairman Doug Jago was hesitating, not knowing what badge to give Du Wei.
At this moment, Du Wei's heart suddenly moved and he changed his mind.
Indeed, the title of "continent's number one" is very tempting. Even if it's a potioneer that people look down on, if he becomes the continent's number one, it's enough to make people admire him.
But after Du Wei calmed down, he suddenly felt that this title of "continent's number one" might not be a good thing for him.
Not for anything else … … Just because the title of "continent's number one" is too eye-catching!
No matter what, he's only fourteen years old. A fourteen year old youth, no matter how talented he is, if he's crowned as the continent's number one, it's too much. Going too far is as bad as falling short, Du Wei is very clear about this path. He's afraid that this title won't bring him any practical benefits, but will instead bring him a lot of trouble.
First, it will put the Magician's Guild in an awkward position. Doug Jago definitely wasn't happy to give him this title. He'll just vent his anger, but if he really offended the Magician's Guild, his future path won't be easy.
As for number two … … Hmph, number one in the continent, who knows how many people will be jealous of this title! For a fourteen year old youth to wear such a big title, it's inappropriate! Extremely inappropriate! If he inexplicably provoked someone's enmity because of a gimmick, it wouldn't be good. Du Wei himself is very clear that although his Magic Potioneering ability isn't bad, it's still far from the reputation of being the continent's number one. In terms of talent in Magic Potioneering, he's afraid that he can't even compare to Thorskei.
The world is so big, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers, who knows if there are any nameless powerhouses. If he attracted the jealousy of others because of this title … … Not to mention anything else, after joining, if there are people coming to challenge him every two or three days because of this title, wouldn't he be annoyed to death?
A false title, it's better to get some practical benefits!
Thinking of this, Du Wei immediately put on a smiling face, looked at Chairman Doug Jago, and said in a sincere tone: "Mr. Chairman, before awarding the badge, I have something to say."
"?" Doug Jago glanced at Du Wei, thinking: What do you have to say? Could it be that you want to use words to ridicule me?
"Chairman, there are also a few mages." Du Wei pondered for a bit, and then smiled: "Although Mr. Chairman is very kind and the Magician's Guild is willing to give me the title of the continent's number one Magic Potioneering Master. But after thinking about it, I still feel that this matter is inappropriate. After all, I'm only 14 years old, and … … To be honest, in terms of Potioneering, I only got some pointers from Teacher Gandorf when he was alive, and only then was I able to concoct this potion. But in terms of Potioneering, I'm still very far from the reputation of being the continent's number one. If this title has to be added, I'm afraid that I won't be able to sleep at night … … I'm very ashamed, so I ask Mr. Chairman to take back this title of the continent's number one! "
Eh?
This kid is so good at doing things?
Daug Daug and Leonid looked at each other.
Du Wei was very clear in his heart that he should stop while he was ahead. As a person, one shouldn't be too greedy. Today, his main purpose had been achieved, so there was no need to offend the Magician's Guild's leading figure too much. In the end, on this matter, he could still leave some leeway for them to deal with each other in the future.
Doug Jago was obviously relieved. If he really gave the title of the continent's number one to a child, then the news would spread outside and he, as the chairman of the Magician's Guild, would be too ridiculous.
But on the surface, he still had to insist. Du Wei pretended to decline several times. Finally, Jago Doug Jago looked at Du Wei with a meaningful smile: "Mr. Du Wei, since you insist on giving up this title, then we won't force you. But since you passed the additional assessment, then as the Magician's Guild, we also value a genius mage like you very much. Therefore, we are very willing to do something for the future star of magic of the Roland Continent. How about this … You are now an official Magician, as well as a Magic Scholar. I think, in the future, you can have your own magic laboratory in this tower. What do you think? "
Live in the most sacred tower of the Magician's Guild? To have a laboratory of his own here?
This treatment is already very good! Those who are qualified to live in the tower are the top figures of the Magician's Guild. Moreover, when Du Wei chatted with Clark, he knew that as long as a mage lived in the tower, no matter what magic research materials they needed, the Magician's Guild would provide all of them for free!
It's a good job for free, and it's very glorious.
But Du Wei thought for a moment and shook his head to refuse: "Mr. Chairman, you should know that I still have the title of Duke. In the next few months, I will leave the Imperial City and return to my territory in the Northwest. I'm afraid I won't have much time to stay in the Imperial City's Magician's Guild to study magic … So, I am very grateful for your kindness, but … "
"That's fine." Doug Jago smiled: "Since Mr. Du Wei can't stay in the Imperial City, then your laboratory can be set up in your territory in the Northwest. I will explain to the deacons of the Guild that you will receive all the same treatment as a resident of the tower. We will help you set up your magic laboratory in the Northwest. At the same time, if you need any materials for your magic experiments in the future … "
The chairman originally wanted to say "free of charge", but then he thought, this kid is not easy to deal with. If he really said this sentence, he doesn't know how many precious magic materials he will plunder from the Magician's Guild! He paused for a moment and changed his words: "If you need any materials, you can discuss it with the deacons. As long as the Magician's Guild has it, we can provide it to you at the lowest price."
Du Wei smiled and then squinted his eyes at the old man: "Mr. Chairman, I also have a small request."
"Please speak." Doug Jago knew that Du Wei had given up on making things difficult for him because of the title of the number one magician in the continent, so he had to pay a little price. This was a tacit exchange.
"I am now a magician, but unfortunately I don't have any assistants by my side. I know that in the Magician's Guild, most magicians have a lot of apprentices, but I don't have a single assistant by my side. Although I am a duke, my family doesn't lack manpower. But as a magician, if I only have a few common people by my side … … it would lose the prestige of magicians. "
"This is simple." Doug Jago waved his hand: "I will allow you to choose five apprentices from the Magician's Guild. As long as you like them, you can take them away."
"Only apprentices won't do." Du Wei smiled slyly: "I need some real assistants for my experiments."
Could it be that this kid wants to take away a few magicians from me?
Doug Jago's face immediately changed!
Magicians were precious talents and strength! Those rich and powerful nobles spent a lot of money to recruit an intermediate magician, it was already a great honor! This kid, could it be that he wants to take away a few magicians from the Magician's Guild and go to the Northwest?
Don't even think about it!
Du Wei guessed the president's thoughts and immediately smiled: "Of course, I don't dare to have any ideas about those noble magicians. I am so young, I don't have the qualifications to have those old and famous magicians be my assistants, but … … I think that one or two low level magicians shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"No! Magicians are the precious wealth of the Magician's Guild. I can't casually send the magicians of the Guild to the border. In the Magician's Guild, there are still a lot of important work that needs to be done. "
"Then … … what about magic pharmacists?" Du Wei finally revealed his true intentions: "Since magicians are not enough, I need a few magic pharmacists."
This was the bottom line.
Fortunately, Doug Jago and Leonid's prejudice against magic pharmacists still hadn't changed. This kind of useless profession didn't have much value in their eyes, so after bargaining, Jago Doug Jago agreed that when Du Wei left the capital for the Northwest, he could take away three magic apprentices from the Magician's Guild, plus three magic pharmacists.
Among them, Du Wei specially proposed a candidate that made the old fellows stare blankly.
"In the hall of the Guild, in the shop that specializes in making magic wands, there is a young man called Seth. The last time I came here, I talked with him. I think that his views on magic potions are very much to my liking, so I hope that I can take him with me."
Someone selling magic wands in a shop outside?
"No problem, when you go back today, you can even take that Seth with you." Chairman Doug Jago didn't even think about it and agreed. In his opinion, a guy who was sent to sell magic wands must have long been recognized by the Guild as someone with no future.
However, many years later, the Magician's Guild discovered that they had made a huge loss!
Using the title of "Continent's Number One" in exchange for a few magic apprentices and useless magic pharmacists. Even Doug Jago felt that he had let down Du Wei with this kind of deal. The old fellow also knew that he seemed to have taken a big advantage in this kind of deal, and Du Wei would definitely have other requests. Therefore, Doug Jago didn't wait for Du Wei to speak and simply asked: "Sir Du Wei, what other requests do you have, say them all together."
"Oh, then the next thing is about the magic academy that is about to be established!"
When the matter of the magic academy was mentioned, the expressions of the old fellows in the room turned cold!
The establishment of this magic academy, to the Magician's Guild, and also to the thousand years of magic tradition of the continent, everyone was very clear in their hearts!
Doug Jago frowned. This guy Du Wei's appetite is too big, could it be that he wants a share of the profits of the magic academy?
Du Wei slowly opened his mouth: "I am a Magic Scholar, and I am about to be appointed as one of the thirteen committee members of the magic academy. This kind of glory makes me feel terrified. However, I don't want to just be a committee member, I want to let myself truly be involved in this great and epoch-making event — — the establishment of the magic academy. I don't want to just be a title and be looked up to by others, I want to enter the academy and personally experience the atmosphere of magic research and study. "
Hm?
Doug Jago was surprised: "Sir Du Wei, could it be that you want to enter the magic academy? Could it be that you also want to become a student of the magic academy? "
This was difficult to handle.
This request wasn't difficult, but the difficult part was … … What was Du Wei's identity? The disciple of the continent's number one magus! The title of a court magus!
If this kind of person entered the magic academy as a student, who would dare to teach him? Who would have the qualifications to teach him?
"No, you misunderstand." Du Wei firmly shook his head: "I don't want to be a student."
"Oh? Then you mean … … "
"I want to be a teacher." Du Wei righteously said: "I hope to be able to pass on the magical knowledge that Master Gandorf taught me, so that more people can bathe in the glory of magic!"
T … … Teacher?
This kid wants to be a teacher of the magic academy?!
However … … If we don't talk about his age, with his qualifications and glorious identity, he is indeed very qualified to be a teacher of the magic academy … … He is simply too qualified!
Master Gandorf's disciple, a court magus, and almost became the continent's number one magus apothecary!
This kind of person, to teach the students of the magic academy, is really very suitable.
However … … he is only fourteen years old after all!
Moreover, to be honest, Chairman Doug of Yago was still very doubtful of Du Wei's true strength.
"But … … Sir Du Wei, may I ask what you intend to teach the students?"
Du Wei's answer was still as shocking as before:
"Magic Potioneering!"
Sure enough … …
Chairman Doug of Yago was sweating profusely.
•
After walking out of the Magician's Guild, Krak Mage, who had accompanied Du Wei all the way out, saw the proud smile on Du Wei's face. The look of success on his face couldn't be concealed no matter how hard he tried.
He didn't know what kind of benefits this kid got from the chairman!
However, facing this young genius who was currently in the limelight, Krak Mage's attitude showed enough respect. He didn't dare to disturb Du Wei's "contemplation" and only led Du Wei out with a serious expression.
However, before coming out, according to the chairman's instructions, he led Du Wei to the magic wand shop in the Magician's Guild hall and said to the big-headed Seth, "Seth, the chairman has ordered that from today onwards, you don't have to work here anymore. From now on, your duty is to follow Sir Du Wei. You will become his assistant and assist Sir Du Wei in his great magic research. "
The big-headed Seth looked at Du Wei and thought for a while before he recognized the young magus that he had chatted with for a long time.
Looking at Seth's blank face, Du-Wei's heart was ecstatic!
Talent! This was a real talent! Although they had only chatted for a short while that day, Du Wei was almost certain that this big-headed, wooden-faced guy's creative talent in magic potions was absolutely not inferior to Thorskei's!
Magician's Guild, you'll regret it!
And … … the magic academy's teachers!
Hahahaha … … Thinking of this, Du Wei really wanted to find a place where there was no one and laugh to the sky!
Humph, although this young master doesn't have the ability to insert people into the student quota, I can insert myself in!
When the time comes, as a teacher, I'll do my best to rope in a few young students, wouldn't that be an easy matter!
