On the fifth floor of the central tower, the president of the Sijia branch, Orange Eaton, received two guests from the Tower of the Great Sage in his private reception room.
For Magic Towers with more than three floors, an additional energy pool would be built for each additional floor. One had to have a corresponding status to be recognized and stationed in a Magic Tower with several floors. Ordinary Mages had three floors, Great Mages had four floors, and Great Mages had to be at the level of Sorcerer Saint to be stationed in a five-floor tower.
However, in reality, Mages who had reached the level of Sorcerer Saint would mostly want to build a tower that suited their own ideas instead of inheriting others'. In addition, the tower could not be destroyed, but Mages would age and die. Therefore, after a long period of accumulation, the number of Mages with five floors exceeded the number of Sorcerer Saints.
In order to not let such high-level strategic resources be left unused, the Society of Sorcerers had some compromises. For example, the branch allowed Great Mages who were registered under it to be stationed in the five-floor tower in the name of managing it. However, this kind of person usually had a high seniority, strong backing, and strong strength, so they could suppress others. Or they could directly make the five-floor tower the headquarters of the branch, just like how Great Mage Orange Eaton was stationed on the fifth floor of the central tower of the Five United Towers in the name of the branch president.
Although he had a swift and decisive personality, Orange Eaton, who had lived to a white-haired age, would still exchange a few words of greeting, especially with the two girls who were only in their early teens.
As the teacher of the girls, in order to not get himself into trouble, Lin paid attention to the etiquette of his students. The two girls were also precocious, so even if they were rude to their teacher, they were still quite polite to outsiders and knew not to get into trouble because of their rudeness.
Therefore, in response to the greeting of the kind old man, after a few polite words, the girls handed over one of the purposes of coming to the headquarters with both hands: the Magic Stones of the Mall System and the instruction manual.
Looking at the sealed wooden box that his student took from the girls' hands. Orange Eaton bent his index finger and tapped the wooden box twice, the magic seal was silently unlocked. Inside, there were three Red Glow magic stones neatly placed and a long instruction manual.
The first two magic stones were for the domain name server and the web server at the dotcom level. According to the instructions, if the association had not successfully launched the two servers, they could use new Magic Stones to install them. The relevant settings had already been completed. The third one was the system of the online shopping mall. As long as it was placed on the control panel of the Magic Tower's energy pool, the system would automatically install it.
The description of the shopping mall system focused on backstage management and order management. Lin's explanation document was as detailed as possible. However, because it was written in such detail, it was not something that could be understood in a short period of time.
Orange Eaton flipped through a few pages and asked the two girls, "Do you know how to design these systems?"
The extroverted and eloquent Hallumi was the main responder. In response to his question, she answered truthfully, "Mr. President. We only know how to use it, not how to design it. Teacher has told us that our current task is to learn the knowledge of the apprentice stage. It won't be too late to learn this kind of knowledge after you become an official Magus. "
Orange Eaton nodded, indicating that he understood, but his eyes were still buried in the book. In response to this standard answer, he couldn't ask for a more stunning performance from two apprentices who hadn't even passed the first ring.
At this time, in addition to his students and Inspector Grimwin who led them here, there were also several Great Magi present. These people were the backers of the affiliated chambers of commerce, and also the ones who benefited from it.
This new system was related to their interests, so they couldn't let the president alone have the final say. Therefore, before going online, they had to make sure that they wouldn't harm their interests. In other words, they could make some concessions, but there had to be enough future benefits.
Therefore, when they received news of the arrival of the emissary of the Tower of the Great Sage, they gathered at the president's reception room on the fifth floor of the central tower as quickly as possible. Among them was Hydra Quinnipiac, the teacher of the previous few annoying brats. When he entered the fifth floor, he observed the two girls and remembered the crooked thoughts of his stupid apprentice.
— —
As one of the outstanding Great Magi of the current generation of magic families, even though Hydra Quinnipiac didn't become the tower master of any tower in Wulian City, but he still had a lot of influence in the Sijia District branch. This could be seen from the number of Magi and apprentices who followed him.
However, this Great Magi wasn't someone who would allow his subordinates to intimidate others and do evil in his name. On the contrary, he still had certain requirements for the behavior of these people. The most hateful thing was to deceive those above and below. Therefore, the few apprentices who had just been frightened didn't dare to conceal anything from the Master Wizard Grimwin.
Hearing the long-awaited news, Hydra Quinnipiac didn't delve into why the few apprentices learned about it from an inspector. He was ready to go to the central tower.
However, this apprentice with a small influence from his family relied on the good relations between the two families. At the same time, as the financier of the Quinnipiac Research Laboratory, he would occasionally perform out of line. Just like now, he said to his mentor: "Teacher, when you go there, you should see two apprentices from the Tower of the Great Sage. I don't know if you can help me ask these two apprentices to be my maids for the sake of your family. They aren't geniuses with high hopes. They're just at the bottom of the list, and their talent is better than that of ordinary people. Moreover, their teacher is just a newcomer who just became a Magus a few years ago. Presumably, with your status, the other party wouldn't dare refuse. Not to mention the president, he's definitely on the same side as you. Therefore, this shouldn't be a big problem for you. "
As the son of a powerful aristocrat in a small kingdom, the character cultivated from childhood wasn't so easy to correct. Just like the request now, Hydra Quinnipiac couldn't hide the disappointment on her face. However, this expression didn't seem to be noticed by this noble apprentice. He had a victorious expression on his face, as if he had forgotten that the people in front of him weren't those small nobles who used to line up to curry favor with him.
If not for the deep friendship between the two families, and the fact that he had received a lot of help from the other family in the past, Hydra Quinnipiac wouldn't have accepted an apprentice of this character. He only replied: "Idiot." Then he left without looking back.
As far as he was concerned, whether or not he offended the Great Sage Tower or snatched away those two Apprentices was as easy as lifting a finger. He was confident that no one would dare to raise an objection to his decision. But what made him unhappy was, what did this apprentice think of him as? A servant of his family? He only rewarded him with a roll of his eyes and a few words of abuse, which was already considered as remembering the kindness of his family.
The noble apprentice who had been scolded into a daze instantly became angry. But these days of learning magic made him understand that the person who left wasn't someone he could casually curse. This fire was naturally directed at the other followers of Quinnipiac. Regardless of seniority, most of these people were people he had to treat with respect. Not to mention, a few of them had already become official Magicians.
On the contrary, it was the one who had followed Hydra Quinnipiac the longest, as the chief of the apprentices, who stepped forward. Usually, he also took the place of the teacher to manage the students and guide the apprentices. He said to the furious noble apprentice: "Since you know that the other party is from the Tower of the Great Sage, then do you know his background?"
"Of course I know. He's just a lowly person with no background, who relied on a little bit of magic talent and endured for many years to become a Magician. A Magician of this level, I could easily kill a few of them when I was in the family. "
"Then, do you know his name?"
"Hmph, that person is nothing. He's not qualified for me to remember his name."
"Then, do you use the forum?"
"Isn't this nonsense, of course I do, chief." The last two words were especially emphasized, with an indescribable tone of ridicule.
"Then, do you know the full name of the forum magic?"
"Isn't it just the forum?"
At this time, the apprentice who was originally mocked by the noble apprentice, as if to retaliate against someone's ignorance, said loudly: "The official name is Cuipwood Forum Browser. If you want to learn something, you have to at least know its origin. Otherwise, you won't even know what to say when you want to talk to others. "
As the chief Magician, he didn't continue to pursue this point, but asked another question: "Then, do you know how to find the name of the master of the Tower of the Great Sage?"
"Of course." It was as if he wanted to take revenge. The noble apprentice quickly cast the Water Mirror spell and opened the forum interface. There was a gossip discussion area inside, and you had to pay the founder of the discussion area to become a member of the group. There were all kinds of unofficial information inside, and it wasn't guaranteed to be completely correct, but it was already a rare source of information in this era.
Of course, there were also the names and general information of the masters of the various magic towers in the Sijia area. He quickly found the project of the Tower of the Great Sage, and read aloud: "The Tower of the Great Sage, Year DCCXXIII (723) of the Aryan calendar, there was a new master of the tower, the name of the master of the tower is Guebrach Cuipwood …" Reading this, he also felt something was wrong. He couldn't help but ask: "Which Cuipwood is it?"
The chief nodded vigorously and said: "It's that Cuipwood." Seeing that some people were surprised, some people didn't understand why some people were surprised, after all, this news wasn't some secret information that was blocked. Or were these people only interested in learning magic, and didn't even bother to know the background of magic?
The chief didn't care about the others, and continued: "Now you understand why the teacher doesn't want to offend this new Magician. It's not that we can't afford to offend him, it's just that there's no need to offend him. "But what he thought was: There's no need to offend him for people like you. But this kind of words would undoubtedly be hated, he thought about it, and still felt that there was no need to say it.
