The Lord of Ashes

"They are all from the Western Islands, why can't I come and see you?" Master Diers, who came to Moses' laboratory, said to Moses without any surprise.

"I can come, I can come." Moses smiled awkwardly.

In terms of appearance, Master Diers is obviously much younger and more beautiful, showing two extremes from the gloomy and stereotyped appearance of other black magicians in the Black Magic Academy.

Moreover, Master Diers' popularity is also well-known throughout the Black Magic Academy.

Moshedo doesn't have to give face to Dean Dadalon, but if Diers in front of him acts as a lobbyist, Moshedo really seems to have to let Katherson go.

"How about three first-level energy crystals, 500 grams of aylanthus powder, two Regan's Roots, and a branch of a five-hundred-year-old magic tree?"

"I've told you the bottom line of the price Katherson can offer. Can these things allow you to let him go?"

Master Diers asked, sitting in front of Moshedo with his two slender legs crossed together.

"Hey! This guy has a lot of good stuff in his hands."

"There are even monster fruits like Regan's Fruit that have become extinct in most parts of the wizarding world, and that five-hundred-year-old magic branch... hum." Moses sneered.

"As a plant magician, it is not unusual for him to cultivate Regan with some ancient seeds and enough World of Warcraft flesh and blood."

"In addition, there is also a five-hundred-year-old magic branch as the raw material for the ultimate magic wand. What about it? Will you agree to let him go?" Master Diers asked.

"Humph, even you are acting as his lobbyist, what benefits has he given you?" Mosheduo was obviously moved, but he still asked unhappily.

"Haha, it's nothing, it's just that this old guy does have some skills in botany."

"Many of my magic potions require him to provide raw materials." Master Diers said casually.

"Okay, I agree to let him go, but he'd better not appear in front of me again." Mosheduo said.

"And what I'm more curious about is, why did he pay such a high price to stay at the Black Magic Academy?"

"This amount of wealth is not a small sum for official black magicians." Moses shook his head and said.

Upon hearing this, Master Diers chuckled lightly and replied: "Haha, it's not because the news of the time and space rift has spread throughout the academy."

"All the black magicians are gearing up to go to the other side of the space-time rift.

Make a fortune. "

"If the other side is really a resource demi-plane, or if we are lucky enough to encounter a plane with complete rules, he can just go there and plunder it, and the income will far exceed the compensation to you." Si said with a smile.

Plane wars and alien plunder are the fastest ways to accumulate capital.

Ordinary living beings can never imagine how huge the wealth accumulated in an entire world is.

In the past, the conquest and plunder of alien planes had always been monopolized by the holy towers and knight halls in the wizarding world.

Black magicians like them, let alone take a sip of soup, can't even smell it.

Now that a time and space rift has been discovered in the Dark Territory, these black magicians are not willing to leave easily.

After hearing Diers' answer, Moses chuckled.

He should be considered the one who knows more about that space-time rift.

Even Diers in front of him and Andis, the strongest among the first-level black magicians, probably don't know as much as Moses.

Moshe's chuckle made Diers feel something unusual.

Just when the female magician tried to ask for more details, Moses stood up and said goodbye: "Okay, you go back and tell Katherson that I agree to let him go."

"But the compensation he promised must be delivered to me within three days!"

…

Thain was unaware that his mentor had reconciled with Keyserson.

On this day, after finishing his daily experiments, his senior brother Zorro stopped him.

"Thanks to your low-level recovery potion last time, I have almost recovered these days."

"I noticed that you don't have your own crystal ball yet, so I made one for you last night." Brother Zorro said, and at the same time, a crystal ball suddenly appeared in Zorro's hand.

The senior brother Zorro in front of him obviously has space equipment like Thain's mentor.

Thain didn't pay attention to the specific space equipment of Brother Zorro. His current focus was mainly on the crystal ball.

"Thank you, Senior Brother. If I want to test my mental strength next time, I don't have to bother the instructor or make a special trip to the college's public library." Thain said with a smile.

Zoro nodded and said: "Actually, the instructor was supposed to make a crystal ball for you, but he was too busy during this period and some accidents happened, so he probably forgot about it."

"Work hard, the director and I will

Everyone can see that you have some talent in alchemy. "Zorro patted Thain on the shoulder and encouraged.

"Yes." Thain replied respectfully.

In fact, the low-level recovery potion that Thane gave to his senior brother Zorro that day had no effect at all.

But the atmosphere of this lineage of teachers is just like this.

A mentor treats several apprentices well, and the apprentices are also more humane to each other.

The relationship between senior brother Zorro and Thain was not as close as senior sister Faile and Thain before this.

But it was because of Thain's understanding and the low-level recovery potion that Zorro recognized and accepted Thain again.

The gift of a crystal ball was just a small thing, but its greater significance and impact was that Thain could learn more from his senior brother in alchemy in the future.

Having studied under Instructor Moses for several months, Thain also has a general understanding of the situation of his two senior brothers and sisters.

Senior Brother Zorro has always been taciturn and very low-key. He inherited most of the alchemy inheritance of his mentor Moses.

Senior sister Fei'er has a rather out-of-touch personality and is not very interested in alchemy. She mainly inherits the knowledge passed down by her mentor Moses in the field of fire element magic.

After exchanging a few words with his senior brother, Thain parted ways with him.

Senior Brother Zorro does not live in the apprentice dormitory. He always lives in the tutor's place. This is also convenient for assisting the tutor in some alchemy experiments.

In the next few exchanges with his senior brother, Thain obtained information that he was very interested in and of relatively high value. He finally learned the specific magic level of his senior brother.

Quasi-magician is the level of the senior brother at this time.

This is a level between a senior apprentice and a formal black magician.

Magic apprentices at this level already possess some of the methods and abilities of formal black magicians, so they are called quasi-magicians.

They are the largest reserves of official black magicians, and they also have half a foot in the upper echelons of the academy.

Brother Zorro is definitely not the only quasi-magician that the Black Magic Academy has now.

Also in the exchange with Senior Brother Zorro, Thane learned a slightly embarrassing secret about the other party, that is, his Senior Brother did not seem to be good at fighting?

If the magic equipment is not activated in advance, senior brother Zorro is not necessarily better than the average senior apprentice.

The reason for this situation is that the senior brother spends too much energy on alchemy, but neglects his own cultivation and the honing of his combat ability.
