The 24th chapter "Vivian's elder sister"
This female magician called Vivian's bag had already been emptied. She looked pitifully at Du Wei, her two hands nervously rubbing the cloth bag in her hands. It was clearly already empty, there was nothing left inside.
"This, this, this is already all I have." Vivian stammered. She really couldn't take out anything else.
To the side, Thorskei was already itching to choke Du Wei's neck and force him to hurry up and agree!
A mid quality Water Orchid Diamond, a large bag of magic recovery potions, and a large amount of high quality magic beast cores … … In addition, there were also more than a dozen magic scrolls inscribed with mid level magic spells!
These things were enough to make any high level magician on the continent green with envy! Even if magicians were famous for their wealth, such a large amount of wealth was still extremely rare.
If he didn't agree now, what would he do if new problems arose? An eighth level magician wasn't someone to be trifled with!
Although this chick looked foolish and honest, if she was angered and they really fought, with the strength of an eighth level magician, it wouldn't be a problem to wipe out everyone on his side.
Yet this chick didn't seem to have the slightest awareness of being a powerhouse. If she was even the slightest bit unreasonable, a high level magic spell would be enough to get rid of these defeated soldiers on his side.
Even if this chick was a fool … … But bullying a great magician like this, perhaps there would still be trouble in the future.
Thank the heavens. Just as Thorskei was about to go crazy, Du Wei finally nodded. He actually had a calm expression: "Respected distinguished magician, I can feel your sincerity. I think that my subordinates will be very satisfied with the conditions you proposed. "
Saying this, Duwei gave a meaningful glance, and Thorskei, as if relieved of a heavy burden, let out a sigh of relief. He hurriedly went up to the female magician's hands and practically "snatched" those "compensations". Thorskei's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. He quickly stuffed these magic materials into a large bag he was carrying and held it tightly. His face revealed an expression similar to that of a miser … … In this kind of situation, if someone dared to have any ideas about the bag in his hands, the mage would definitely fight to the death with that person!
"Then, then, then, you, you, you can let go, let go, let go …" Vivian looked at Du Wei with pleading eyes. Her big innocent eyes, coupled with her angelic face, really made it difficult for people to make things difficult for such a girl.
"Oh, although these subordinates are very satisfied with your compensation terms … However, I have a small additional condition for myself." Du Wei said calmly.
"Keke, but I'm already n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n …"
"No, no, no, I'm not asking for material compensation," Du Wei finally revealed his sinister intentions, "You're an eighth-level magician, aren't you? In the Empire, Great Magicians are very rare, especially you … … I have never heard of a young lady like you who has the badge of a Great Magician. Oh, please don't misunderstand. What I want to say is … I'm very curious about magic, and I have an unusually strong interest in it. I've always yearned for the glorious magic culture, and I've spent a lot of time and energy researching magic. You see, I've even hired a magician to be my magic consultant. "
Du Wei raised his hand and pointed at Thorskei, who was tightly clutching his bag, looking like a miser.
Afterwards, Du Wei deliberately sighed and shook his head, "But it's a pity that you've also seen, this magic consultant of mine, although he taught me with all his heart, his level is really limited, so it's very difficult for me to obtain more knowledge from him. So, to be able to meet you here today, an eighth-level great magician, for me, is really an incomparable honor … … Oh, although I was frightened by your pet, but on account of such an outstanding magician like you, I naturally won't haggle over such a small matter. "
The pitiful and simple Vivian felt that her brain wasn't enough. In her opinion, just now, this young noble was really a little scary, he hatefully extorted all of her wealth … … But who told her to be in the wrong? It wasn't that Vivian didn't think of using magic to snatch Chirps back, but the education she'd received since childhood was that she had to abide by the fairness and kindness in her heart. She had to be kind to others, and in addition, she was such a simple little girl who almost never left the house, so it was really hard for her to have any evil thoughts.
Only then did she obediently hand over all of her wealth, but she didn't know that as long as she was willing to harden her heart, a single spell would solve the problem.
Just now, this little noble was really scary. But in the blink of an eye, he spoke of his abnormal yearning for magic, and his tireless spirit of learning … … Especially the way he spoke, it was so sincere, his eyes and tone were also so sincere.
And he even said "I won't haggle over the matter of him being frightened". Oh, god, this was such a benevolent guy … … The overly simple-minded female magician immediately forgot that she had just been extorted of all of her wealth by this guy. She stammered, "Thank … … Thank … … Thank you for your magnanimity."
"No, no, I haven't finished my words." Du Wei sighed, "Unfortunately, I've always been praying to meet a powerful magician, to give me, a little guidance on the path of magic … … Now, I've finally met you … … I don't know if the kind you, Sir Magician, would be willing to give a little guidance to a person who sincerely wishes to learn magic?"
"… … Eh?" The female magician felt that something was wrong, but looking at Du Wei's sincere eyes in front of her, she really couldn't figure out what was wrong.
Oh, what a kind and lovely person! And just now, teacher's pet had frightened him … … This was also her fault.
But … …
"You, you, you want to learn magic, Keke, but I, I, I want to take Chirps back … … to, I'm afraid … …" The female magician was a little embarrassed.
"No, no, you've misunderstood." Du Wei smiled, his expression even more sincere, his eyes also very enthusiastic, "Of course I know that a great magician's time is more precious than gold. Your precious time should be spent on researching the mysteries of magic, how could you waste it on a vulgar aristocrat like me? Therefore, I'm not asking for much, just a little bit of guidance is enough. You see, I already have a magician acting as my consultant, although his strength is limited, at least he can answer most of my questions. And what I need now is some more 'advanced' knowledge, such as … … "Du Wei's eyes turned, and he smiled faintly," Such as, a few advanced magic incantations. "
Thorskei was stupefied!
He didn't think that Du Wei's appetite would be so big!
If it was said that magic materials were a magician's personal wealth … … then, magic incantations were a magician's life!!
Every magician delved into magic incantations their entire lives, they absolutely wouldn't casually teach the results of their own research to anyone!
Any magic books in the empire only recorded some general knowledge of magic, absolutely not even half a sentence of incantations would be spread out!
Any magic incantation, even the lowest level incantations, could only be taught orally by a magician to his disciple!
A high level magician was stronger than a low level magician, apart from magic power and perception … … the most important thing was that they had a grasp of some advanced magic incantations!
The same magic incantation, when used by a low level magician and a high level magician, even the incantation itself would have some minute and crucial differences! A high level magician could use the results of his own research to shorten the incantation by a few bytes that could be deleted! Increasing the speed at which magic was used, thus obtaining an advantage in battle.
Also, there were some high level incantations that low level magicians didn't grasp.
For a low level magician like Thorskei, he only grasped a few of the lowest level incantations, nothing more. If he wanted to learn high level magic, he could only acknowledge a high level magician as his teacher.
He didn't think that Du Wei's appetite was actually so big, wanting to obtain magic incantations from this little girl's mouth!! These were secrets that magicians absolutely couldn't divulge.
Although this girl was excessively naive, she wasn't an idiot after all … … otherwise, how could an idiot cultivate to the level of an eighth level magician?
Hearing Du Wei's request, the naive Vivian's complexion became somewhat unsightly, she repeatedly shook her little head: "Ah, no, no, no, no … … absolutely, absolutely, absolutely not. My old teacher said that the incantations can't be divulged to others! "
"But, this terror illusion goblin is your teacher's pet, your teacher should have also said that you can't let it out, right?" Du Wei's expression at this moment was like an instigator seducing an underage child to commit a crime.
"… …" The female magician was speechless.
"What I said wasn't wrong, your teacher definitely told you to properly take care of this thing, but you also violated it. Your teacher must have told you not to let it escape, and you have also violated this rule. Right now, I'm only asking for this little bit … … and it's on the basis that I helped you catch this little thing … … You also saw, in order to catch this little thing, we suffered quite a bit. I myself also received quite a shock. Right now, in order to make up for your previous mistake, you should make some compensation to me, don't tell me that you shouldn't? "
Even if this Vivian was a genius, then perhaps her genius was only limited to her innate talent in learning magic. And in other aspects, it was very clear that this little girl was somewhat "lacking". Du Wei's logic and theories almost made her dizzy.
In her mind, she was debating whether to fulfill her teacher's order of taking care of the pet, or fulfill her teacher's order of not divulging the incantations to others … … After weighing these two options back and forth for a long time, she finally cried.
The naive girl once again shed tears, she wept and said: "Okay, okay, okay … … Keke, but I, I, I can only teach you one, one, one, one."
"Oh, you say one, one, one, one." As Du Wei spoke, he quickly put up a finger: "Oh, then let me count, a total of four, right?"
"No, no, that's not right!!" The female magician panicked, she loudly tried to explain: "No, no, no, it's not four, four, four, four, four, it's one, one, one, one, one … …"
The more she spoke, the more anxious she became, the more she couldn't finish the word "one". And when she kept saying "one", Du Wei quickly put up a finger. Every time the female magician's mouth popped out a "one", Du Wei would immediately put up a finger.
In the end, Vivian was so anxious that she almost bit her tongue. Seeing that all ten of Du Wei's fingers were raised, and if she continued to count, he would probably start to raise his toes. The female magician panicked and shouted: "Stop, stop, stop, stop!!"
Looking at the cute little girl's flushed face, Du Wei didn't dare to really push her too far. After a final round of bargaining, both sides set the number at "six" magic spells.
Regarding this kind of losing deal, the female magician also went through a fierce debate … … But she really wasn't as eloquent as Du Wei. Her eloquence wasn't good to begin with, her brain was a little simple, and more importantly, she stuttered when speaking. With such words, how could he win against Du-Wei in a verbal battle?
Helpless, the female magician could only secretly wipe away her tears.
Oh, respected teacher, please forgive poor Vivian for disobeying your order … … I also wanted to find your beloved pet. In order to fulfill your first order, I disobeyed your second order … … This, is this right or wrong?
"I'm a noble, you're a magician, we're both people of status. Since we've made a promise, we can't just go back on it, I suggest that we both make an oath. Until we fulfill our promise … … "
Finished speaking, without waiting for the female magician to open her mouth to object, Du Wei immediately loudly made a poison oath to the great God of Light.
The female magician was helpless and could only make an oath. What made Du Wei surprised was that when making the oath, the female magician even very honestly used a contract magic, representing that the agreement between the two must be fulfilled.
This little girl, although she stuttered, the speed at which she chanted the spell was shockingly fast!
A string of profound and difficult incantations was like frying beans in her mouth, fast and clear! She was obviously speaking very fast, but every word was incomparably clear!
It was hard to imagine that a girl who could chant incantations so fast would stutter.
What was worth mentioning was that even in the end, this poor Vivian didn't show the slightest intention of using violence to resist Du Wei.
I really don't know what kind of teacher would be able to teach such a simple and frightening girl!
•
The many guards of the Rollin family kept silent about the little master's extortion of such a pitiful little girl. They had all suffered a lot from the Illusory Goblin, so even if this little girl looked very innocent and pitiful, no one would say anything for her. The only one who disagreed in his heart was Robert Knight. After all, he believed in the Knight's spirit, so he still didn't quite agree with Du Wei's behavior of extorting a little girl. But as a retainer, he couldn't raise any objection to his master's practice.
Also … … Master treated an eighth level magician like this, wasn't he worried about causing trouble?
And Robert Knight's worry … … quickly became a reality!
The female magician who promised to teach Du Wei six magic incantations had no choice but to follow Du Wei back to Half Horn City.
After the female magician signed the unequal contract, she began to rack her brain to think about which six incantations to choose to teach Du Wei … … Of course, it would be best if it was some unimportant incantations.
Oh, you can't blame such a simple little girl for actually starting to have this kind of dishonest thought. Really … … After being extorted by a devil like Du Wei, perhaps even a pure angel would learn to be a little cunning!
Thinking like this all the way, the female magician couldn't make a final choice. She had no choice but to stay by Du Wei's side and continue to think.
Fortunately, Teacher will still be back for a few days, as long as this matter is completed within these few days … … Ai, just, don't let sister find me!
If this matter can be solved, I can return to Teacher's house. The outside world is really too scary, are the people outside as scary as this little noble?
Oh, merciful God, poor little Vivian didn't mean to hurt others behind their backs, may God forgive me … … But, that little noble is really scary.
After going back this time, I won't come out again!
Ai, sister … … Sister, she shouldn't be able to find me so soon, right?
The magical beast incident in Half Horn City was solved. The most relieved one was Span Knight. The magical beast incident was solved, and the young master of the Rollin family didn't suffer any injuries.
Although the process was a bit shameful, dozens of fully armed soldiers were almost wiped out in front of a little magical beast … … But, this thing was the pet of a great magician! This kind of thing wasn't shameful.
Span, who was in a relaxed mood, warmly invited Du Wei and the others to stay in the Half Horn City's garrison chief's residence. After all, the environment and conditions here were much better than the inn.
Du Wei didn't refuse, he also hoped to have a quiet environment to talk with the female magician about fulfilling the incantation.
In this way, they didn't enter the city, but went to the local garrison's village outside the city.
It was a permanent military stronghold. The garrison chief's residence was also here. That night, Span Knight, who wanted to curry favor with the young master of the Rollin family, warmly invited everyone to have a good meal. He even secretly decided to take out the garrison chief's treasured wine from the cellar. (Presumably, when the chief knows that this is to entertain the guests of the Rollin family, he won't blame me for using his treasured wine.)
The soldiers who were tired for the whole afternoon, as well as the guards of the Rollin family, could finally take a break. Here, everyone drank to their heart's content, venting out the depressed experience of this afternoon.
Du Wei responded to Span's politeness, and quickly found an excuse to go back and rest. Actually, he wanted to see the female magician.
Span knew that for someone of Du Wei's status, it was already a great honor for him to be willing to eat with him. Of course, he didn't dare to ask him to stay, and stood up to respectfully send him off … …
Suddenly, at this time, an earth-shattering roar came from outside the hall!!
Under the clear and cloudless night sky, a huge lightning bolt suddenly streaked across the sky! The deafening sound of thunder caused everyone to sober up from their drunken stupor!!
Then, in an instant, the outside of the hall was filled with light! A flame came down from the sky, accurately hitting the flagpole at the entrance of the barracks! With a bang, the flagpole turned into a ball of flame and burned to ashes!!
Everyone was stunned, and at the same time, they heard a cold voice coming from all directions!
This voice seemed to be coming from afar, but also seemed to be ringing in their ears! It was the voice of an extremely cold woman!
"Vivian! My dear sister, where are you running to?! Quickly hand over the fear illusion goblin! "
