"What's the custom of the wizard organization? Just tell me about it. I'm just killing time," Ren Xiaosu said to Mego.
Mego no longer rode in the carriage. Instead, he rode a horse beside Ren Xiaosu.
Since Qian Weining and the others had been attacked many times, there were a lot more horses available …
Now, only Li Chenggong and Liu Ting, who were diligently learning the wizard language, were sitting in the carriage.
Mego thought for a moment and said, "There's an interesting custom — middle names."
Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment. "I've read about middle names in the books I read in the Middle Earth. It's said that in some places outside the Middle Earth, people would put pet names or names with meanings in the middle. That's why people in those places have very long names."
"Some wizards have very long middle names too," Mego explained. "The reason I say this custom is interesting is that these middle names are related to the witchcraft they're good at."
Ren Xiaosu's eyes lit up. "Tell me more about it."
"For example, the middle name William is because William was the first wizard in the Tudor family to discover Blood Summoning. If a wizard is very good at Blood Summoning, he will add William to his middle name to show off his ability," Mego explained.
Ren Xiaosu smacked his lips. "Are you really that honest?"
Mego did not know whether to laugh or cry. "This is not honesty, this is glory! You have to understand that the way wizards think is indeed very different from the Middle Earth. For example, the people who immigrated to the Middle Earth in the past would not open gifts in front of others, but wizards have the habit of opening gifts in front of others. "
Ren Xiaosu said disdainfully, "I can understand opening gifts, but I can't accept directly using my middle name to expose my ability."
In a place like the Middle Earth, everyone wanted to hide their skills and abilities. After all, if their trump cards were known, it would be easy for them to be at a disadvantage in battle.
Ren Xiaosu felt that if the enemy knew he had the Shadow Door, the black saber, "Old Xu," the black sniper rifle, the Explosive Poker cards, City Crusher, the Potato Shooter, and the black Eye of Truth, "I wish you all happiness."
Hmm … it still seemed like it would not be easy to deal with him. After all, he had too many abilities.
However, if it was someone like Wang Congyang or Zhang Baogen, whose abilities were known by others, they would be easily targeted.
Therefore, from Ren Xiaosu's point of view, this was similar to the principle of not showing off one's wealth. There was no need to tell others what abilities he had. It was better to hide them!
Ren Xiaosu looked at Meigo. "Are there any other middle names? Tell me about their corresponding witchcraft."
"Yes," Mego said, "and Jefferson, he was the first wizard to discover the Ice Break spell. Chris was the first wizard to discover the Meteor Fall spell."
"I see." Ren Xiaosu nodded.
"Actually, most wizards don't have as long a name as you think. Just like I said before, most wizards only specialize in one or two witchcraft, so they only have one or two middle names at most," Meg said. "Of course, there are some wizards with really long names. Have you finished reading the Wizard Records? There's a man named Logan Benjamin Jefferson Alexander Owen Voss."
Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment. "Such a lame name?"
Meigo explained, "But actually, he didn't know that many spells. He was one of the biggest swindlers at the beginning of The Cataclysm. Many people saw that he had a bunch of middle names and thought that he was an expert in many witchcraft spells, so they were very respectful of him. But later on, they realized that he was best at deception. "
Ren Xiaosu suddenly recalled the doctor he met in stronghold 113. At that time, he wanted to copy the doctor's medical skills, but he ended up copying a skill that allowed him to brag. When he tried to copy it again, the palace reminded him that the doctor had no medical skills.
"Not bad." Ren Xiaosu said emotionally to Meigo, "So this name can be used to brag, and everyone will believe it the moment you brag!"
"Yes, so although this middle name can be used as a reference, you can't trust it completely." Meigo glanced at Ren Xiaosu. "The people in the Sorcerer Nation aren't as honest as you think. Some people will bluff, while others choose to hide their trump cards. Of course, most people won't cheat in this aspect, because most sorcerers really think that it's an honor. "
Ren Xiaosu had already experienced the falseness of the people in the Sorcerer Nation. Therefore, he would not judge what kind of witchcraft a person knew or did not know based on their middle name.
Would an honest man poison Russell? Would honest people suppress people who helped them after The Cataclysm? Of course not.
If the people in the Sorcerer Nation were really honest, then Ren Xiaosu might feel a little guilty for stirring up trouble. But in fact, if the people in the Sorcerer Nation knew their place, the Northwest would not have formed a blood feud with them for over a hundred years.
"I understand." Ren Xiaosu said, "Then what's your full name?"
Meigo hesitated for a moment before saying, "Meigo Smith."
"Wait, what's your middle name?" Ren Xiaosu asked with a chuckle.
Meigo gritted his teeth and explained, "I don't have any witchcraft spells that I'm good at. That's a middle name that can only be added after I become a great sorcerer …"
"That's such a pity," Ren Xiaosu said regretfully.
Pity my ass!
At this moment, Meigo's face was burning. He felt as if he was being publicly executed. Although they were already friends and had a good relationship, Ren Xiaosu's ability to hurt people's feelings was just too easy for him.
When it was almost noon, the caravan finally arrived at Winston City.
Compared to an important southern town like Vaduz, Winston City was a little shabby. It was the political center of the Winston family, but it was not even as good as a subsidiary city of the Berkley family.
So it was no wonder that the Winston family had to bow down to the Berkley family.
Ren Xiaosu said to Meigo, "Go back to the carriage. There might be people in this town who want your life. Don't be too conspicuous."
As he spoke, Chen Cheng ran to Ren Xiaosu's side from the back. He looked at Meigo and said, "We're about to enter the city. I have something to discuss with you. Shall we go to the side and talk?"
"There's no need." Ren Xiaosu said, "I'm Sir Meigo's personal attendant. If you have something to say, just say it. There's no need to hide it from Sir Meigo."
Chen Cheng hesitated for a moment before saying, "If you're interested, let's meet at the relay station's entrance at 10 o 'clock tonight. We'll bring you to meet a few people."
Ren Xiaosu asked curiously, "Who are they?"
Chen Cheng said mysteriously, "Don't ask for now. I believe you'll be interested. Remember, come alone."
"That won't do." Ren Xiaosu shook his head and said, "I have to bring Lil 'Mei along."
Chen Cheng was stunned. "Who's Lil 'Mei?"
Meigo replied with a livid expression, "It's me."
"Oh." Chen Cheng looked at Ren Xiaosu. "Why do you want to bring him along?"
"Someone wants to kill him. As his personal attendant, of course I have to protect him at all times," Ren Xiaosu explained with a smile.
Chen Cheng clenched his teeth and said in a low voice, "If you think he's trustworthy, then it's fine to bring him along. But let me remind you, he might be a member of the Norman family."
Ren Xiaosu shook his head and said, "He's not."
"That's good."
