Chapter 228
In the town of Arcane Snake Head, Black Snake Manor, the high priest Mulander Black Snake summoned several arcane mages and high knights from the family.
"Mu Lali sent a letter." Mulander announced to everyone with an excited look on his face, "Duke has been promoted to the second level of Arcane Mage." "
Second level, Duke has been promoted to the second level?" Mu Han Si exclaimed.
"The letter from your daughter is definitely not fake." Mulander looked at Hans with a smile.
He was very proud of his plan to arrange for Muhans's daughter to be Duke's assistant, and it worked.
With Mulali as a mediator, the Black Snake Family has successfully tied up Duke.
Duke has now been promoted to the second level, which is naturally huge good news for the Black Snake family, especially Duke has also broken two Seven Towers Federation records, and is destined to be a high-ranking figure in the future. The Black Snake Family can gain a firm foothold in Snake Head Town by borrowing Duke's influence.
Muhans said happily: "This is really a big surprise. Who would have thought that Duke would be promoted to the second level in such a short period of time!" "
Yeah, it's really surprising." Muked Black Snake praised, he He is Muland's cousin and one of the five arcane mages in the family.
But he is only a level 1 arcane mage.
At this time, Muland suddenly looked at another tribesman who had his head hanging down: "Mudis, how about you, how do you feel when you hear this news?"
The tribesman with his head hanging down is another level 1 arcane mage in the family. Moodys Black Snake, the father of Duke's second assistant, Murasan.
Mudis raised his head and smiled bitterly: "It's really powerful."
"Alas!" Muland sighed heavily, "Isn't it just that the attack on the second level failed? The thunder potion has been refined. You can adjust your condition and turn around. Drink it!"
"I..."
"Whatever you give me, the family will do its best to help you advance to the second level, but after promotion, you can go all out to earn resources for the family." Muland shook his head, "It's time Looking forward, we are raising a younger generation for the family. With Duke's help, the family has a chance to breathe, and I can breathe a sigh of relief."
Mudis smiled uglyly: "Yes, high priest."
Mulan De ignored him and looked at Mu Hans: "Duke was promoted to the second level Arcane Mage. I won't go there to celebrate in person. You and Mu Ke De will go to Shenjiao City to congratulate him. In addition, you will go to Shenjiao City to congratulate him." Prepare a generous gift for Mulali."
"For Mulali?" Muhans was a little confused.
"Is there anything you don't understand? Duke is already Lord Suktara's student. He lacks nothing. No matter how good a gift we give you, it's just the icing on the cake." Muland said cheerfully, "But the gift is for Mura. Li, it's different. Duke will miss our friendship."
Mu Hansi already understood and said, "I know, but second uncle, would you like to prepare another one for Murasan?"
Mulande squinted. Narrowing his eyes: "You decide for yourself."
Muhans muttered: "You still have to prepare one for Mu Lashan. Mu Lali and Mu Lashan are both Duke's assistants. You can't favor one over the other, which will offend their little sisters. "
If you think so, I can rest assured that I can leave this home in your hands." Muland smiled happily.
But Muhans shook his head and smiled: "Second uncle, let Mudis take charge of the family after Mudis reaches the second level. Duke has a good saying, the world is so big, I want to see it."
" It's ridiculous. How old are you and you still have to run around?" Mulander glared, "I have devoted my whole life to the family. Why is it that when you and Moody take over, one of you wants to run away and the other becomes decadent?" He
said He said seriously: "I don't allow it, the Black Snake Family will be left to you to take charge of."
After Mu Hans accepted.
Muland came to him alone and said, "Your relationship with Duke is far beyond what Moodys can compare with. Even if Murasan can get more Duke's favor, I don't think Moodys can replace you. He is a little too gloomy."
"I will try my best to have a good relationship with Duke."
"It's not as much as possible, but a must." Muland said solemnly, "After Cuihai City was established, our Sheshou Town was the closest market town. , and it is located on a traffic thoroughfare, with broad prospects for future development, but it must be supported by strong people, and Duke is the Black Snake family’s biggest supporter.” Speaking of
this, Muland looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.
"In just the past few years, Duke has become a big tree that can protect the Black Snake family from wind and rain. Such changes are too fast."
Muhans said: "This is spirituality, everything is possible."
... …
the next day.
Shenjiao City.
The newsstand owner shouted in the street, attracting many passers-by.
"The youngest arcane mage in the Seven Towers Federation is a gentleman from our Shenjiao City. Buy the newspaper and see who it is!" "Buy the newspaper. He will be promoted to the
second level arcane mage as soon as possible. He is the most spiritually favored in the entire federation. This person is actually in our Shenjiao City!"
The lines the boss yelled were not shocking enough, and some of the content was wrong.
But it didn't stop him from attracting passers-by to the newsstand and buying newspapers one after another. In fact, there was no need to shout, and many people would flock to the newsstand to buy newspapers.
Yesterday's bell-ringing ceremony had already warmed up the common people and prepared to buy newspapers to find out which arcane mage was born.
"Spiritual guidance, Duke broke two training records in one fell swoop; with arcane magic on top, the Seven Towers Federation focused its attention on Shenjiao City." "
Daily Shenjiao City" reported in detail Duke's record of being promoted to a second-level arcane mage, and there was no It's too much to boast, just listing Duke's information since his training, but this is already a staggering resume.
At the age of fifteen, taking drugs opened up the spiritual sea.
At the age of sixteen, he was promoted to Level 1 Arcane Mage and completed the bell-ringing ceremony.
At the age of seventeen, he published a paper and invented a portable lamp, winning the Outstanding Erudite Invention Award.
At the age of eighteen, he invented the bright light technology and was awarded the title of Erudite.
At the age of nineteen, he was promoted to Level 2 Arcane Mage, broke two Seven Towers Federation records, and unveiled epoch-making film and television technology.
In just five years of training, Duke has achieved a level of achievement that most arcane mages would struggle to achieve in their lifetimes.
"The legend has just begun. The Black Flood River is destined to produce a great figure who will lead the times. Let's wait and see." This was the only report on the front page of the newspaper, accompanied by a picture taken during a separate interview with Duke.
Sitting on the sofa, Duke's young appearance doesn't look like an arcane mage, but like a photo star in a slideshow.
"It turns out to be Master Duke!"
"I'm just telling you, who else can be so powerful!" "It
is written a lot in the article that 10% of the spirituality in the Black Dragon River is probably 90% gathered in Master Duke! "
I'm a Level 2 Arcane Mage. My son has been a spiritual apprentice for six years and is still wandering around Samsung." "
What is this film and television technology? Does it look so powerful?"
"I read in other newspapers that this film and television technology is an epoch-making invention. Mr. Duke is very likely to get the title of learned sage with this invention!" "Sage!" "Tsk, tsk, tsk, that's a
sage
. We don’t seem to have a single sage in Shenjiao City, right?”
“It’s so great!”
Passers-by who bought the newspapers marveled, and many passers-by came over to rub the newspapers and then exclaimed.
The name Duke has become the word that appears most frequently in the streets and alleys, and it appears non-stop from morning to night.
If the most familiar arcane mage to the public in the past was definitely the legendary 5-ring arcane mage, Christian Raging Waves, then now, I am afraid that he will be replaced by Duke. In just a few years, Duke's name has become the focus of discussion again and again.
In the Seven Towers Federation, the entertainment industry has not yet developed, and singers and photo idols are still niche. The arcane mage is the undoubted star.
After dinner, everyone likes to talk about all kinds of news about Arcane Mage.
Putting aside the tidbits about arcane mages, Duke's news is probably the most memorable, after all, the various "bests" are quite eye-catching.
From the youngest arcane mage in Shenjiao City, to the youngest scholar in the wind breath field, to now the youngest 2nd level arcane mage in the Seven Towers Federation.
And the next possible youngest erudite sage in the Seven Towers Federation.
Along the way, there are records everywhere, the best.
"My son works at Faling Tower. Let me tell you, if Faling Tower rings the bell once, everyone will get an extra month's salary!" "Are the benefits so
high?"
"Isn't that nonsense? Employees of the Fifth Tower, who It's not about high benefits and high salary."
"That's correct. My son-in-law works in the Erudite Tower. Last year, Duke won the title of Erudite, and everyone got three times the salary that month!" "Oh
my god, where is the three times the salary?" "
This That's not all. Didn't the newspaper say that Mr. Duke might get the title of Erudite Sage? My son-in-law said that if he really gets it, all the next employees of the Erudite Tower will have their annual salary doubled!" The uncle who spoke was very proud.
I am quite proud that I have a son-in-law who can work in the Erudite Tower.
"Double the whole year? Isn't this twelve months' salary?" Such benefits directly envy many passers-by.
News about Duke is flying all over Shenjiao City.
"Mr. Duke." The gatekeeper of the waste card station said slowly while smoking a dry cigarette. "Back then, I used to look for cards here. He was so conspicuous back then. Everyone else was just like you. They were dozens of years old. He is the only one who looks like a child."
Recalling the past time, the gatekeeper couldn't help but feel proud: "At that time, in order to stay at the waste card station longer, Master Duke even gave me tobacco leaves!" "Wow
. , is it true or not, Master Duke can still give you something?"
"Why is it not true? Otherwise, if he can be Master Arcana, you can just pick up garbage here!" the gatekeeper yelled. , "Mr. Duke always gave me tobacco leaves when he was young, but you couldn't even bear to part with them!"
He just finished speaking.
The janitor's cigarette pole was snatched from behind.
"You old guy, if you have a missing front tooth, you're leaking air, right?" A middle-aged man who looked somewhat similar to the uncle knocked on the table with his cigarette pole, "How many times have I told you, don't talk nonsense here? You don't understand, right? You can arrange the affairs of Master Arcana?" He
saw that it was his son.
The gatekeeper was too embarrassed to answer, and the Taoka customers who gathered around to hear him brag about his friendship with Duke also left in a hurry.
The uncle's son was still lecturing his father: "You don't even think about it, who are you and who am I, your son? Do we have the qualifications to arrange the arcane mage master?" "I didn't say anything."
"
You What I said is not enough. I have been sued. If Mr. Arcana starts talking, our whole family will have to die with you!" The son became more and more angry as he spoke, and he stuck out his cigarette pole, "You old fool. I'm so tired, I don't want to die yet!"
When his son left angrily.
The old janitor picked up the cigarette pole that was broken into two pieces and cursed angrily: "You unfilial beast, if I had known I would have shot you into the wall!"
Seeing that the cigarette pole could not be repaired, the janitor muttered again. He scolded: "Mr. Duke was polite to me back then and bought me tobacco leaves. Who are you? You dare to blow my beard and stare at me and poke my cigarette rod!" At this time
.
A group of young people of seventeen or eighteen years old came outside, holding newspapers and gesticulating at the waste card station.
One of them, a young man, walked up to the gatekeeper, held up a newspaper and asked, "Sir, did Mr. Duke hunt for scrap cards here?" The gatekeeper was about to
answer.
Suddenly thinking of his son's glaring look, he swallowed and quickly shook his head: "I don't know, I just came here."
Although he didn't ask for the result.
But this group of young people quickly determined that this card waste station was the place where Duke came here to buy cards. After paying the money to buy cards, they all entered the station and started shopping.
...
People from the outside world paid homage to the place where Duke made his fortune, and many people even chose to take a black beetle car to visit Sheshou Town.
As for Duke himself, he still stays safely in the Suktala Master Tower.
Stay in the laboratory and perform alchemical experiments.
But I saw him standing in front of the test bench, his hands handling a material. At the same time, there was a crystal-like arm on the test bench, which was rapidly operating the experimental equipment.
The fingers of this crystal arm sometimes extend and sometimes shorten.
With incredible dexterity, it can easily operate experimental equipment that requires the joint efforts of several people.
It can be said that Duke is alone at this moment, without a clone, and can still carry out complex experiments in an orderly manner.
"Mr. Duke." Terrence knocked on the door of the laboratory.
"Please come in."
Duke waited until Terrence walked up to him before he saw the person clearly: "It's you, Terrence. You said you don't need to call me Sir." "In the
spiritual arcane field, those who have mastered it come first. You are already a senior in both academics and cultivation. I call you Sir from the bottom of my heart." Terrence explained seriously. Even though he was more than ten years older than Duke, when he looked at Duke, he felt that Look up to the giants.
In his entire life, he never dared to hope for the title of scholar.
Duke, however, will immediately receive the title of Sage. The gap between them can no longer be described in terms of level, but a natural chasm.
"Oh, it's up to you." Duke was too lazy to be polite anymore.
"I took over a project from outside the tower to design a three-piece set of spiritual weapon templates for film and television. I would like your signature for review." Terrence respectfully took out a document.
Duke didn't even look at it: "I said, film and television technology is released for free, so you don't need to ask me to sign the three-piece film and television project you accept. And you are no longer a student, you just stay in the tower to work, you have independence The right to take over the project.”
"I..." Terrence hesitated, "I used to ask Lord Sorel to sign." "
I'm not Sorel, so the previous rules don't need to be enforced." Duke patted Terrence. on his shoulder, "Teacher handed me over to take care of the mage tower. Then, let's work out a set of rules together some other time, and strive to provide a good research environment for every arcane mage." Terrence nodded heavily: "Yes, sir
. ."
Then he said goodbye and left.
Duke continued the experiment in his own hands without arranging any assistants. He completely supported a more complicated experiment by himself.
Wait until the experiment is over.
Duke crossed his arms across his chest and looked at the crystal arms floating quietly in front of him, with a satisfied expression on his face.
"Xiaoyi, what do you think of this arcane weapon?"
"Master, this is a 1st-level arcane weapon with very practical value. It has achieved all the functions expected by you, master. I will give it ninety-nine points. The remaining The next point will be used to encourage yourself and design better arcane works for the master." "
I will give you ninety-nine points for your score, leaving one point for encouraging you." Duke chuckled.
When it comes to arcane weapons, he has two.
At the level of 1st level, the 1st level sand eagle is unquestionably the top level existence, and Duke will not replace any of the arcane weapons.
However, although Austrian players are not top-notch, their supporting abilities are exactly what Duke wants.
He has a top-level artificial intelligence like Xiaoyi, which is equivalent to having the top-level software system. However, his body is a bit weak after all, which is equivalent to a slightly inferior hardware system. After successfully casting the Olympic Hand, the hardware system was greatly improved.
When it comes to precise operations, the AoShou effect is excellent.
"And..."
With a thought, Duke suddenly raised his hand, and at the same time, a silver and black Sand Eagle pistol appeared in the palm of his hand.
Duke himself made no moves.
The Austrian Hand is holding the sand eagle and wandering around the body. According to the propagation distance of spiritual energy, the Austrian Hand can be within a maximum range of one meter away from him.
The distance is not very far, but it is unexpected.
After holding the sand eagle and playing tricks, the sand eagle dissipated, and Duke used the arcane hand to perform the most skillful arcane spell - the mage's hand.
"So, the Austrian hand is my third most flexible hand."
Duke smiled slightly.
The next second, the arcane hand suddenly plunged into a pile of materials, and then scattered into countless tentacles, exploring deeply into the materials.
Through psychic perception, all this pile of materials has been clearly sensed by Duke.
Even the tiniest impurities can be distinguished.
"Not just a third hand, but a third eye and a weapon!" Duke thought, and his Austrian hand suddenly grabbed a piece of hard material.
This kind of material is almost indestructible without psychic decomposition.
However, as Ao's hands continued to tighten their grip, the hard material couldn't stop making a clicking sound, and after a few seconds, it completely shattered into a pile of dregs.
There is no other reason.
The Austrian Hand can also circulate Dou Qi, strengthening it in all directions, making its strength and hardness infinite.
Almost indestructible.
"Huh."
"Perfect!"
Duke snapped his fingers, and the Austrian hand quickly disappeared. He looked at the empty laboratory and strode out.
Along the way, I met the staff in the tower and received countless looks of respect and admiration.
"Sir!"
Mulali walked over to greet you with small steps: "My father and fifth grandfather are here to congratulate you and congratulate you on your promotion." "Really, where are they now?" "On the
2nd
. The tower is waiting for you."
"Well, let's go." Duke returned to Tower 2 with his assistant.
I saw Muhans Black Snake and Muked Black Snake in the living room. They were not strangers, but Duke clearly felt that they were awkward.
The last time we met, it was Duke who went to Cuihai Valley to fly Xiaohong's wedding. At that time, he was only a level 1 arcane mage and scholar.
Now half a year later, Duke is already a second-level arcane mage, and is about to obtain the title of Erudite Sage.
The speed of promotion is so fast that even those familiar with him cannot react.
"Sir!" Muked stood up first and bowed to Duke.
Muhans followed closely behind and bowed: "Sir."
"You are too polite, Mr. Mukede, and Uncle Muhans." Duke smiled and greeted the two of them to sit down.
Hearing Duke still call him uncle, Muhans felt much less awkward and said with a smile: "Second uncle was very happy to learn that you were promoted to the second ring. He immediately asked me and fifth uncle to come over to congratulate you."
Mukede He also smiled and said: "Your promotion this time is the glory of the entire Sheshou Town. When we came, the whole town was already on holiday to celebrate your promotion to the second level arcane mage. This is the first time since the establishment of Sheshou Town. The whole people celebrate."
"It's too grand." Duke said, "Although I have been promoted to the second level, I am still an ordinary arcane mage. There is no need to mobilize troops and crowds like this." "
The people are happy from the bottom of their hearts when they know the news. We The holiday is just to follow the people's will," Muhans explained.
Duke shook his head. It was hard for him to say anything about this kind of flattery.
He just said: "You guys will have dinner here at noon. I have been promoted to the second ring. I have already agreed with the teacher that there will be no celebration. Only family and friends will have a meal together." There is no need to celebrate
.
Because after a while, he will probably get the title of Erudite Sage and become the highest decision-making level in the Black Dragon River. It will be more appropriate to celebrate at that time.
noon.
It's really a family dinner together.
In addition to Muhans and Muked, guidance counselor Vikas also came to congratulate him. Counting Mulali, Mulashan, and Vivian, they all happened to be close to Duke. These close people also knew very well that they would not have any status.
There is no pursuit, just appear natural, and have a pleasant lunch.
Duke chatted with him for a while after dinner, and then went out to greet new guests. Now he was very popular and there was an endless stream of visitors.
Counselor Vikas called his granddaughter aside.
Seeing her granddaughter put on light makeup, she felt quite relieved: "Although you are the captain of Duke's guard knights, you can leave the training of the team to other knights. The most important thing for you now is to stay with Duke." , do you know?"
"I know." Vivian nodded.
"Learn more from other women, see what methods they have, and then understand with your heart. If you can give birth to an heir for Duke, your status will not be shaken at all." Vikas warned.
Vivian suddenly raised her head and looked at her grandfather: "Even if you give birth to a child, this child is still an illegitimate child."
Vikas rolled his eyes: "What's wrong with an illegitimate child? What's wrong with an illegitimate child."
He was an old man, so he naturally understood what Vivian was thinking, and said calmly: "You must be complaining that I treat your father badly because of your father's illegitimate status."
Vivian was silent, she did think so.
Vikas said: "Actually, that's not the case. Although your father is my illegitimate son, I was not bad to him when he was a child. He was just like any other son. It wasn't until your father failed to open the Three Seas that I ran out of patience. ."
Under Vivian's slightly astonished gaze, Vikas said calmly: "This is the way this world is. Only Sanhai monks are qualified to enjoy resources and the love of their parents." His tone was a little calmer and he pointed
. Referring to Vivian herself: "For example, you, although I am disappointed with your father, but you have the talent of blood sea, have I treated you badly? I will also find the best instructor for you, train you since you were a child, and find it for you Black-spotted serval cat contract, you deserve all this."
Finally.
He said in a solemn tone: "Talent is everything, both in our family and in the Nutao family. The aristocratic system is collapsing, and the distinction between concubines and concubines has been weakened. Between illegitimate children and legitimate children, whoever has talent can enjoy the resources." Wei
Wei Wei An was silent for a long time and nodded slowly: "I understand, Grandpa." "You can teach me
, your father is the general manager of Giant of Light, and you are the captain of the guard knight for Duke. You already have the advantage, don't feel inferior."
"Yes."
"Okay, I know you don't like grandpa, so grandpa has left." Vikas said, putting his hands behind his back and preparing to leave.
Vivian stepped forward and chased after him: "Grandpa, I'll see you off."
Vikas couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, thinking that Vial was a waste, but he gave birth to a good daughter.
Maybe his talent is not top-notch, and he will probably be a level 1 knight in this life.
But with the blessing of spirituality, everything is possible. If you become Duke's friend, you may not be unable to inherit Duke's outstanding talent if you give birth to children in the future.
At that time, as my maternal great-grandfather, I felt so honored!
