Lazar nodded with a smile, "Of course, as long as it's a new spell that the congress doesn't have. Also, compared to the review of the paper, we just need to summon the alchemical life in the Magic Exchange Room to compare the new spell with the previous one and make sure that the new spell is ready to be released. The gentlemen from the Arcana Review Board will finish the review in less than twenty minutes. "
As soon as Lucien finished his words, Simeon, who was standing beside him, added, "But you have to remember, although you can get arcana credits and activate the badge, you still have to get one basic arcana credit when you want to get your arcana level in the future. The congress requires every sorcerer to have a solid foundation in arcana. You can't choose your own direction until you become an arcanist. "
"I'll find time to take the arcana test from the Sorcerer Administrative Department." Lucien answered in a casual tone, as if he was talking about what he was going to have for dinner. However, Simeon and Lazar both thought that Lucien was going to apply for the test as soon as he finished reading all the arcana and magic books.
Waving goodbye to Annick and the other apprentices, Lucien followed Lazar and headed to zone four.
"Mr. Simeon, you've just become a level two arcanist, and there's a great chance that you can become a middle-rank arcanist." On the way, Lazar said to Lucien, "I wonder when I'll have thirty arcana credits."
Lucien was a bit confused, "How many credits do you need to upgrade your arcana level?"
"At first, it was said that it was a multiple of ten, but later on, the number of arcana credits required was way too high. After all, there were only ten or twenty thousand arcanists in the world. Later, a legendary sorcerer who liked the philosophy of 'everything is three' added 'three' in the middle, and it became what it is now. Ten credits are needed to become a level one arcanist, thirty credits are needed to upgrade to level two, one hundred credits for level three, three hundred for level four, one thousand for level five, three thousand for level six, ten thousand for level seven, thirty thousand for level eight, and one hundred thousand for level nine. "Lazar liked the feeling of being questioned.
As they walked, there were lights shining on them from time to time. However, the arcana and magic badges on Lazar's body were shining faintly, which made the lights flinch away.
…
The Mage Administrative Department had an open hall with a light yellow sofa, a coffee table, a bar counter, a wine cabinet, and other things. It gave people a relaxed and open-minded feeling, like a salon or club that was better than the management department.
Next to the hallway that led to the back office, lounge, and reference room, there was a reception desk made of silver-gray metal. Standing there were two lively and cute girls. The mages who came and went, as long as they were not the gloomy kind, liked to tease them. There was no lack of young people who were pursuing them.
"Mr. Lazar, have you finished your reception?" One of the taller girls with flaxen hair smiled and bowed. She was wearing a yellow dress and had delicate features.
Lazar smiled again. "Of course, sweetheart Cindy. Don't you see Mr. Evans next to me? A twenty year old official magician. "
Then, he pointed at the two girls and said, "Evans, they're Cindy and Dona, the sweethearts of the Sorcerer Administrative Department. They're both senior-rank apprentices, and they're preparing to become real sorcerers while working."
Hearing Lazar's teasing, Cindy just rolled her eyes and looked at Lucien with a sweet smile, "Welcome, Mr. Evans. A twenty year old official magician is a genius wherever you go, especially since you're an ancient magician. If I haven't made the breakthrough yet when you become a middle-rank magician, can you take me as your apprentice? A real apprentice? "
"Mr. Evans, I want one too! Don't forget me!" Dona, who was short but curvaceous, waved her reddish-brown hair.
Lucien didn't expect that they would be so enthusiastic. He was a bit shy and didn't know how to answer.
Lazar burst into laughter, "Evans, it seems that you don't have much experience with girls. They just like to use this kind of joking way to welcome a new magician. "
"In fact, they're both talented in both arcana and spiritual power. They're seventeen years old, and they're already senior-rank apprentices. There's a good chance that they'll become official magicians before they turn twenty. And they've decided to focus on Force Field, Electromagnetism, and Light-darkness, which doesn't fit with your Astrology and Elements. Besides, Nicholas, a middle-rank magician, has already decided to take them as his students. "
"I thought I'd become so charming all of a sudden, and I'd be warmly welcomed by the girls," said Lucien humorously.
Cindy stared at Lucien with her beautiful eyes, "Mr. Evans, you're really charming. You're handsome, gentle, and calm. You're even more attractive to me than Mr. Lazar."
"That's so sad." Lazar pretended to be sad, and then he tried to be serious, "Are Mr. Eric and Dona in his office?"
Dona giggled and pointed at the corridor behind them, "They're all busy. Only Mr. Eric is waiting for you, Mr. Lazar."
Lazar complained that he was not as charming as before, and then led Lucien to the third office under the two girls' smiling eyes. On the door, the name of the office was "Eric, Deacon of the Sorcerer Administrative Department".
Knocking on the door, Lucien heard a majestic voice, "Please come in. The door's not locked."
Through the slowly opening door, Lucien saw rows of bookshelves. On the shelves, there were not books, but sheets of silver-gray paper without any wrinkles or curvature. They looked like thin metal sheets, shining with a strange light. Also, there were many bright silver lines extending from them, connecting them to the walls that were glowing with a pale blue light.
Other than the bookshelves, there was also a dark cabinet, an iron cage with bells hanging on it, and a metal shield in the room.
In front of the bookshelves, there was a desk, and behind the desk sat a bald man in a black suit and tie, with a half top hat on his right hand.
The ordinary-looking man, who was about forty years old, looked up and glanced at Lucien from head to toe. Then he lowered his head and started writing something.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Eric." Lazar stopped smiling when he was with Cindy and Dona. He bowed solemnly and solemnly.
Eric nodded, "Welcome, my new friend. Please register and get your badge. Lazar, your mission has been completed. Bring this note to the mission area to receive your reward. "The note that he had just written flew towards Lazar.
When Lazar got the note, he said to Lucien warmly, "It's been a pleasure getting along with you, Evans. You're such a nice gentleman. May I have the honor to invite you to dinner later? I think we can be friends. "
On the way here, Lucien's calm and steady attitude, as well as his talent in spiritual power, made Lazar feel that Lucien was a good friend.
"Thank you for your invitation, Lazar," said Lucien, "but I can't find a place to have dinner." It was the first time that Lucien came to the headquarter of the Congress of Magic, and the person he was most familiar with was Lazar. Of course, he did not mind having a warm and friendly friend.
Lazar waved the note in front of Lucien's face, "I'll come to you when I get my reward. By then, you'll have already put on your magic badge and activated arcana badge. "
After Lazar left, Lucien walked to Eric and sat down in front of him. Lucien saw that there were three silver stars and four black circles on Eric's chest.
"Level three arcanist, fourth circle sorcerer …" Lucien murmured to himself.
When Lucien was thinking, Eric took out a piece of paper with a silver luster and put it on the table, "Fill in your information and give it to me, so that I can activate your badge."
Lucien took the paper and looked at it carefully. There were only names, ages, schools, and levels to fill in.
The Congress of Magic didn't seem to care much about one's background and background.
Seeing that Lucien didn't start writing, Eric said calmly, "You can fill in the rest of your information on another piece of paper, so that the Congress can save a lot of time and effort to get your identity documents from the Kingdom of Holm or other countries. By the way, when you get married in the future, please register with the Sorcerer Administrative Department. We've already handled a lot of cases involving sorcerers' legacies. "
Lucien picked up the quill and wrote, "Lucien Evans, 20 years old, good at Astrology and Element, first circle sorcerer." Then he wrote some information on the paper.
Eric took a closer look at the silver-gray paper and smiled. "Lucien Evans … That's a very common name, isn't it? That's the name of that famous musician, and a few days ago, a low-rank elemental sorcerer who just became a level two arcanist also had the same name. I've heard of this name before. "
"I can't believe there are so many people with the same name." Lucien had to believe what Natasha said. He touched his chin and said, "Maybe this name is too common."
Eric didn't say anything more. He pointed at the metal shield with patterns on it and said, "Cast a first circle spell. I need to check your level."
Two silver magic bullets immediately formed and hit the metal shield, causing ripples on the surface of the shield.
Eric nodded, "It's not a magic item. It's from the inside of your soul. Evans, you're indeed a first circle sorcerer. "
After saying that, Eric turned around and took out two badges from the black cabinet. He put one of the badges and the paper into the iron cage with the bell hanging on it. Then he pulled the string of the bell.
The bell tinkled, and the iron cage lit up with silver light. One minute later, the light slowly died out.
When Lucien took the paper out, the same as the other metal papers on the shelf, a bright silver line extended from the paper and connected it to the light on the wall.
A dark black ring had appeared on the silver badge, as if it had always been embedded in the badge and was difficult to erase.
"This sorcerer badge will record your name, age, spiritual power imprint, magic level, and arcana points you have. You have to use it when you want to get arcana points. Except for you, no one else can use it. " Eric handed the two badges to Lucien and asked him to leave his spiritual mark on them, "I have a copy of this information, and the Highest Council also has a copy. So don't try to change your level and arcana points."
"With this badge, you can go to the 'Task Zone' and receive basic arcana and magic books and meditation methods. Also, as a first circle sorcerer, you can get one Quintal worth of materials or potions from the Congress every month. You can also borrow books from the Congress. "
Putting the activated sorcerer badge on his left chest, Lucien looked at the dark arcana badge in his hand and asked, "Mr. Eric, I want to activate my arcana badge. Is it here?"
"Yes. Write down the unique spells that you want to submit to me on parchment, and I'll send it to the Arcana Review Board. I'm sure the result will be out in half an hour. " Eric answered calmly. He did not find it strange at all. It was quite common for him to see people using unique magic to activate their arcana badges once in a while.
After saying that, he added, "Don't worry, I won't peek."
Lucien smiled, "I see, Mr. Eric. But what if it's an arcana paper? Other than submitting it to the Arcana Review Board, do I still need to submit it to a journal? "
"Paper?!" Eric raised his head, and for the first time, he looked at Lucien with his pale gray eyes. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
