Age of Adepts

The welcome banquet was held on the third floor of the Wu Tower as scheduled.

Those who were able to attend this banquet were almost all the first batch of founding members of the Crimson Family.

Although neither the Patriarch Greem nor Lady Mary arrived, the warm atmosphere in the arena remained undiminished.

Most of the wizards of the family have just returned from the alien plane, all of them are full of wallets and pockets, and their personal strength has also increased a lot. Not to mention anything else, the worm witch Billis, who has always been inconspicuous, has already jumped from the first-order intermediate to the first-order peak.

If all goes well, in another ten years or so, it may become the second wizard of the family to successfully advance to the second level after Lady Mary.

Level 2...

To put it bluntly, this class is already the end of most wizards' dream worlds.

As for Tier 3 and Tier 4, without extraordinary talent and amazing adventures, most wizards may never be able to reach such a high-level existence even if they spend their entire lives working hard and striving to improve.

Regarding the wizard's promotion system, the wizard's handbook summarizes it very comprehensively.

First of all, if you want to become a wizard, you must have a wizard talent, and then become a wizard apprentice.

And the so-called wizard talent actually refers to the elemental talent!

According to the statistics of the Wizarding Association, in the wizarding world, the probability of birthing a baby with elemental talent among mortals is only 1.31%. This also means that out of a thousand mortals, there are at most 13 apprentice wizards with elemental talents.

And among these 13 wizard apprentices, half will become mortals again because they cannot master the meditation technique smoothly. As for the rest, they need to be promoted step by step from junior apprentices to intermediate apprentices, advanced apprentices, and quasi-sorcerers before they are eligible to attack wizards.

According to statistics, the success rate of wizard apprentices to become wizards does not exceed 15%.

However, when it comes down to a single apprentice, this success rate can still be improved by relying on various means and resources. Therefore, some wizards joked that the birth of wizard apprentices depends on luck, while the birth of wizards depends on accumulation!

No matter how poor a wizard apprentice's talent is, as long as the family is willing to devote resources to training, the success rate of advanced wizards is still far higher than those helpless guys.

However, the wizarding world is also fair!

For those junior wizards soaked in honeypots, no matter how much resources they spend, it is impossible to increase the success rate to 100%, or even 80%. Therefore, relying on a big mountain can indeed increase the success rate a lot, but there is still a chance of failure of more than 20%.

And those apprentice wizards who have nothing, as long as they meet the quasi-sorcerer standard, there is a 15% chance of success in one fell swoop.

Therefore, no one dared to underestimate any quasi-witch. Who knows if the dazzling halo of the protagonist will fall on the head of some unlucky guy, making him the real master of the wizarding world in one fell swoop—a wizard!

And level 2 wizards can't be promoted by relying on qualifications and experience, and often require some special means or some kind of strange talent. Otherwise, it would not be Tier 1 wizards who accounted for more than 70% of the wizard population, but Tier 2 wizards.

Compared to an orthodox wizard like Meryl, the speed at which the Worm Witch Billis advances is terrifying.

From the time he advanced to Tier 1 to becoming the pinnacle of Tier 1, it took a total of seventy years. The most direct reason for this situation is that almost his entire life has been soaked in endless killings.

Whether it was the Goblin plane, the later Lance plane, or the recent Faen plane, he participated in the whole process and played an extremely important role. It was this years of bloody experience that allowed Billis to advance far faster than ordinary people.

Although Meryl, Desaiella, Gargamel and others were envious, they could only shake their heads and sigh. After all, they can't imitate this kind of blood-licking life. If you do it forcefully, I'm afraid that your life has not been improved, and your life has already been thrown into a certain alien plane.

In the banquet hall on the third floor of the Wu Tower, there are only a dozen wizards in all kinds of robes.

Meryl, who hurried back from the goblin plane, pulled Desai aside and asked in a low voice what happened to them in the plane of Faen. From time to time, Meryl's eyes would sweep across the entrance of the banquet hall, obviously waiting for the arrival of her mentor, Greem.

As the host of the banquet, Gargamel frequently greeted all the wizards in the venue. And beside him was always standing the beautiful forest demon with a beautiful face and a graceful figure, who used a calm and indifferent expression to push back every female apprentice who tried to get close to Gargamel.

Between the two, a beautiful girl in a long green dress was holding Lin Yao's hand tightly, scanning the arena with curious eyes.

And she, surprisingly, also has level 1 strength!

Except for these out-and-out human wizards, the rest are probably all alien wizards.

Medusa Dana and the manticore leader Karon are relatively close, and the two of them occupy a corner alone. They also imitate human wizards, sipping wine silently, and then whispering to each other.

The only group that could support the atmosphere of the banquet was the group of vampires brought back by Mary.

The two remaining blood knights, Soros and Wensol, are dressed in bright and dazzling blood-colored armor, coupled with the pair of blood-colored bat wings curled up behind them, the whole shape is mighty and imposing. In stark contrast to them, there are six blood elves covering the first and second ranks.

They were both male and female, but even those male blood elves had delicate and handsome faces, making it difficult to judge their gender just by their appearance.

These blood elves were obviously unwilling to be alone, and they took the lead in dancing in the banquet hall. With their charming faces and light and graceful dancing postures, they successfully attracted the attention of all wizards present.

And the atmosphere of the banquet instantly became lively!

In addition to the orthodox wizards, there are also seven or eight quasi-shamans who can participate in the banquet.

Although they cannot enjoy the treatment of wizards, they are not the protagonists of this banquet. As a reserve force cultivated by the family, they can still attend such a family banquet, and then experience the atmosphere and way of wizard communication in advance.

Of course, if they can use the banquet to win the favor of a certain wizard, they must have the resources to rely on in the future.

So these quasi-witches and witches all carefully prepared and dressed up. The men were handsome and tough, and the women were delicate and pleasant. They chatted cordially around the sidelines, and it became a beautiful scenery at the banquet!

As for the goblin businessman Kirby, he was an active member in the banquet hall.

Relying on its qualifications as the first to follow Greem, it leisurely wandered among different small circles and small groups. Talk to everyone enthusiastically with the enthusiasm unique to goblin merchants, talking and laughing happily, as if it is the posture and appearance of the protagonist of the banquet.

The whole banquet was served by a group of specially selected female apprentices, as well as a few particularly docile slaves from another world—the forest elves.

It has to be said that in any group there will be some who are particularly stubborn and conservative, and there will be some who know how to adapt.

It took less than half a day for this group of forest elves to be transported to the Throne of Flame, and some elves had already sadly accepted their new identities, put on slave collars, and seriously acted as elf maids.

This is actually their wisdom.

Almost all of the forest elves transported back by Greem from the plane of Faen have the status of fighters, and many of them are Tier 2 powerhouses. On the alien plane, they may be masters, nobles among nobles, but here, they are just delicate dolls held by wizards in their hands.

If you are gentler, you may be able to live longer. If they continue to persevere, the dissecting table or the proving ground will be their final destination!

Of course, it is also common to encounter some evil wizards with special hobbies and transform them into sex slaves or collect specimens.

Finally, in the middle of the banquet, Greem, who was dressed in a black wizard robe, walked into the banquet hall together with Wizard Mary who was dressed up.

And behind the two, followed by the dragon man Zacha and the goblin Tigule.

The arrival of the 2nd level of the four families immediately pushed the atmosphere of the banquet to a climax!

All the wizards of the family stopped talking and dancing, and Qi Qi stood up and applauded. And the young quasi-shamans around the sidelines slapped their hands loudly, their faces flushed red, excited to see this legendary figure in the family again.

It is said that this crimson patriarch is a powerful person who has climbed to the second level completely by his own strength.

He rose from the swamp tower and became famous in the dark crypt, especially good at manipulating elemental puppets. As a senior apprentice, he once defeated the quasi-witch, and as a quasi-witch, he once turned a volcanic world upside down.

However, what can best identify this legendary figure is the secret battle that no one knows about!

With life and death in their hands, the three young wizards who had just advanced turned the tide of battle and killed the evil wizard who wanted to sacrifice blood to the three of them.

And this has become his most famous battle!

Since then, he has been out of control, and he has rapidly grown from a lonely and unknown ordinary wizard to an extremely powerful elite wizard.

Fire Demon...Blaze Demon...

Similar titles appeared to him again and again, each time heralding the fall of a powerful enemy.

And he also walked along the way, successfully setting up his own wizard tower in this black forest.

As for the subsequent journey to the alien plane, the summoning of powerful dragons and beasts to slaughter the vampire family, and the successful return from the alien plane this time, each of them firmly marked the eye-catching footprints of a strong man rising.

To be honest, where did the wizards, quasi-witches and apprentices present come from?

The purpose is to be able to attach to the side of this strong wizard, so as to enjoy some war dividends that ordinary people can't match.

If the Crimson Clan rises strongly under the leadership of this legendary patriarch, then those guys who joined earlier will be able to gain more resources and benefits as the tide rises!

And this is the only reason why everyone flocks here!
