Chapter 113 Elements and Bloodline, Different Promotion Paths
When a wizard apprentice sees a wizard, he must address him as “sir.”
This is the unwritten rule of the wizarding world.
It doesn't matter your age or seniority, it's purely out of respect for the strong.
Fan He's words and deeds at this time undoubtedly confirmed Pei Ze's guess.
Pei Ze asked with great interest: "How did you know?"
Fan He said respectfully: "When you entered the magic laboratory, you rented it for three months at a time. This matter quickly spread in the college Many people are guessing that you are preparing to condense spiritual crystals." "
So as soon as you come out, everyone will know that you have been promoted to a wizard."
Pei Ze nodded without comment.
He knew that Fan He must not have told the whole story.
It is speculated that it is true that he was preparing to condense the spiritual crystals, but he did not come out for more than two months, which has exceeded the normal time required to condense the spiritual crystals. It is estimated that many people maliciously speculated whether he failed to break through and recuperated in there, or simply recuperated. Lost his life.
That's why those people were so surprised when they saw him appear.
Of course, Fan He would definitely not tell the truth in front of him.
Pei Ze didn't expose it, smiled at Fan He, nodded, and walked away.
Watching Pei Ze go away, Fan He sighed with a complicated expression.
Once you cross the threshold of a wizard, from now on, regardless of your status or power, you will be in the same place.
In the past, he could still call Pei Ze a junior, but now he can only look up to him.
No. 8 Medicine Garden.
When Pei Ze came to this familiar medicine garden again, his feelings were completely different.
Under the mental scan, he could clearly feel the spatial fluctuations filling the medicine garden, as well as a lot of magic fluctuations.
The latter mainly comes from various magical protections and spell traps.
Because he holds the pass, Pei Ze can vaguely feel the slightest trace of magic fluctuations.
If it were any other outsider who dared to wander around in the medicine garden, he would probably be killed by endless spell traps before going very far.
"The wizard's mental scan is really useful. If it is some low-level spell traps, you can completely identify them with the mental scan. It is equivalent to a weakened version of the detection trap." Not long after, Pei Ze came to the door of
Mo Weng's pharmacy room.
Just as he was about to knock on the door, Mo Weng's voice came from inside.
When Pei Ze pushed open the door and walked in, Mo Weng had just completed the final steps of refining a bottle of potion. He put the cork on the bottle and turned around to look at Pei Ze up and down, with a smile of relief gradually appearing on his face.
He took a step forward and suddenly appeared in front of Pei Ze, reaching out and patting him on the shoulder.
"Congratulations. From today on, you are also one of us."
"Thank you." Pei Ze could feel Mo Weng's sincerity. He was really happy for his promotion from the bottom of his heart.
"I heard that you stayed in the magic laboratory for more than two months?" Mo Weng motioned for Pei Ze to sit down.
Pei Ze found a chair and sat down at random, and then replied: "I spent some time testing the changes after promotion."
This was the reason he had already thought of.
After all, the fact that it took more than two months to complete the promotion is a bit shocking.
Mo Weng, without doubting that he was there, raised the topic and pondered: "According to the academy's regulations, once a student is promoted to a wizard, he will automatically graduate from the academy and leave the academy, unless he is willing to sign a contract and stay as a tutor in the academy." "But
I I think you won't choose this path."
Pei Ze nodded, looked straight, and said solemnly: "Teacher, I plan to go to the Turin plane."
After hearing this, Mo Weng was not surprised at all: "With you With your talent, the plane battlefield is indeed the most suitable place for you." "
Tall trees cannot be grown in a greenhouse. Only on the plane battlefield can you grow faster." "
But before that, you'd better first Take some time to consolidate your strength."
Pei Ze nodded. The plane battlefield is extremely dangerous, and he must be fully prepared before going there.
"But there are different ways to get to the plane battlefield."
Mo Weng raised his hand slightly, and two more badges suddenly appeared on the table between the two.
One was completely black and red, and the color looked like blood that had dried for a long time. It exuded a bloody aura that seemed to be substantial. On the front were two scarlet gloves held together.
One was pale silver, with an open book on the front and a flying dove flying between the pages.
Mo Weng pointed at the black and red badge and said: "You can join the Silver Light Legion Witch Hunting Force and enter the plane battlefield as a sergeant." "
Although you have to abide by military orders and lose some freedom, the advantage is that it is easy to obtain resources. , any resources that Wizard City obtains from the dimensional battlefield will be given priority to the Legion."
Then, Mo Weng pointed to another silver badge.
"Of course, you can also enter the dimensional battlefield as a free wizard and complete various tasks issued by the legion to get rewards. This way you have a higher degree of freedom, but the resources you get are relatively limited. After all, many rare materials are not open to free wizards. Or set up a very high exchange authority."
"Which one do you want to choose?"
Pei Ze frowned and thought for a few seconds, glanced at Mo Weng, and tentatively said: "Teacher, which one do you think is better for me to choose?"
Mo Weng seemed to be early He guessed that Pei Ze would ask this, so he just smiled and said, "I suggest you choose the second option." "
Why, teacher?"
Pei Ze was a little surprised.
He thought the teacher would suggest him to choose the first option.
After all, joining the army will provide him with more resources, which will help him quickly improve his strength.
Of course, as far as Pei Ze's own thoughts are concerned, he definitely prefers the second option.
After all, once he joins the army, he must always keep his mental strength at its peak in order to cope with the battle orders that may be issued at any time.
In this way, he would not be able to expend mental energy at any time to speed up the task, and his strength improvement would be greatly affected.
On the other hand, free wizards have relatively more free time.
It's up to him to decide when to accept a mission and when to use his mental energy to improve his strength.
When weighing the two phases, there is no doubt that the second one is better.
But Mo Weng didn't know this, so Pei Ze was very curious about the reason behind it.
Mo Weng narrowed his eyes and suddenly asked an unrelated question.
"Do you know the realm of wizards after crystallization?"
Pei Ze was stunned, then shook his head.
The wizard's manual that Mo Weng gave him only mentioned information about first-level wizards to third-level wizards.
As for the level classification further up, it is completely blank.
Mo Weng didn't care and slowly said:
"After the wizard completes the complete crystallization of the three spiritual crystals, he will face the choice of promotion path." "The
first is to transform into spiritual elements and take the elementalization route." "
The second is to integrate the bloodline of ancient creatures and take the bloodline route."
" Not to mention the specific advantages and disadvantages of these two routes, they are incompatible with each other. Once one of them is chosen, the other cannot be involved. Otherwise, it will be severely damaged and the strength will be reduced, or the way forward will be cut off. "
" Therefore, any wizard can only choose one of the two as a promotion path, and thus two major factions have evolved - the elemental faction and the bloodline faction." After hearing
this, Pei Ze's expression moved slightly, and he already knew that Mo Weng wanted to be with him. What is said. Seeing the change in Pei Ze's expression, Mo Weng smiled faintly and said, "It seems you have guessed it." "
Elemental factions and bloodline factions often clash because of their different philosophies. This problem occurs in many wizard cities. Passed."
"It's just that in some wizard cities, the elemental faction suppresses the bloodline faction, or the bloodline faction suppresses the elemental faction. One side always has the upper hand, so everything is fine." "
But those two major factions have a balanced strength, or one side has the upper hand. Wizard City has a slight upper hand but cannot overwhelm the other side, so the situation is a bit delicate."
Pei Ze nodded lightly subconsciously.
We are not afraid that the east wind will overwhelm the west wind, nor are we afraid that the west wind will overwhelm the east wind. We are afraid that the two will be dissatisfied with each other and at the same time be unable to do anything to the other.
Maybe the two sides can check and balance each other and live in peace in a short period of time, but in fact, a bomb has been buried, which may completely explode at some point.
By then, the losses will probably be even more severe.
According to Mo Weng, Chenxi City obviously falls into the second situation.
etc.
Pei Ze suddenly remembered something.
The five major wizarding families in Dawn City, the Pei family, the Meng family, and the Yan family are all blood families and undoubtedly belong to the blood faction.
The remaining Yin family and Gu family obviously belong to the elemental faction.
In this way, the bloodline faction still has a slight upper hand in Dawn City.
After thinking about this, Pei Ze suddenly felt like he had a sudden realization.
No wonder Mo Wenghui suddenly accepted him as his disciple.
Yin Xue is a disciple of Mo Weng, so Mo Weng is obviously from the same family as the Yin family.
And he was a bloodless person who was expelled from the Pei family. He also killed Pei Shaoqi. He and the Pei family had already been on opposite sides. He also showed outstanding talent and strength in the trial. The elemental faction was optimistic about him and wanted to take him under his wing. It is not surprising that he is under his command.
Come to think of it, even if he hadn't shown his outstanding talent in pharmacy, Mo Weng would definitely have accepted him as his disciple.
Seeing that Pei Ze was deep in thought, Mo Weng did not interrupt him and waited quietly.
But soon, Pei Ze came back to his senses, his eyes were calm and his expression was as usual.
Mo Weng saw this, with a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes, and suddenly said: "Although the bloodline route has made rapid progress in the early stage, it has flaws that cannot be ignored. No matter how high-spirited it is in the early stage, it will eventually taste the bitter consequences." These
words It seemed that there was something in his words. Pei Ze was about to ask again, but Mo Weng changed the topic and said: "This time in the Turin plane, the main force of the legion is mostly in the hands of the three major families of Pei, Meng and Yan. If you join the Silver Light Legion, I'm afraid that They will use any means necessary to target you."
He glanced at Pei Ze, with a sigh flashing in his eyes.
The seventeen-year-old official wizard cannot be ignored even by the proud blood family.
Pei Ze frowned.
What huge interests are involved in the war on the Turin plane, that even the main force of the legion is controlled by the bloodline faction?
Why does the situation of the elemental faction sound so bad?
But when Mo Weng mentioned this matter, the old god was there without any gloomy expression, which seemed very unreasonable.
Could it be that there was some inside story that he didn't know about?
"Forget it, it's useless to think too much. These are things that the higher-ups worry about. I'd better take care of myself first."
Pei Ze suppressed the doubts in his heart and said solemnly: "In this case, teacher, I will enter as a free wizard. Plane battlefield."
Mo Weng nodded and suddenly said: "Pei Yonggao is also in the Turin plane. He was about to break through to the first level of crystallization. However, during this period, a lot of mental power was extracted by the god-body demon. He can maintain It's pretty good not to fall down. Don't expect a breakthrough."
He glanced at Pei Ze and said calmly: "If you want to take action, remember to keep your hands and feet clean."
Pei Ze understood in his mind.
Then, Mo Weng suddenly threw something over.
Pei Ze reflexively reached out to catch it, and when he looked closely, he saw that it was a ring.
Judging from the faint space fluctuations it sensed, it seemed that it was still a space ring, and there were many things stored in it.
"This is a gift to congratulate you on your promotion to a wizard." Mo Weng said, "Also, if someone gives you something next, you are welcome to accept it all." Pei Ze was slightly startled and wanted to ask again, but saw
Mo Weng wave his hand. , so I had to say goodbye and leave.
"Elemental faction and bloodline faction?"
After walking out of the pharmacy room, Pei Ze looked back at the closed wooden door, his eyes flashing.
He didn't expect that there were factional struggles lurking beneath the surface of the seemingly peaceful Chenxi City, and that he was also involved.
But Pei Ze didn't take it too seriously.
After all, he and the Pei family were already at odds with each other. If he wanted to deal with the Pei family, joining the elemental faction was undoubtedly the best choice.
As for what to do next, the soldiers will come and cover up the water and earth.
Although he is already a wizard, he still has little influence when it comes to factional disputes.
From now on, I will continue to concentrate on improving my strength, and at most I will wait for an opportunity to deal with some enemies.
After walking out of No. 8 Medicine Garden, Pei Ze was about to go to the logistics department, but he saw two white-robed wizards standing on the roadside.
The apprentices passing by along the way bowed and said hello to the two of them, but the two of them didn't even look at them and just kept talking to themselves in low voices.
It wasn't until they saw Pei Ze walking out of the medicine garden that the two of them showed gentle smiles on their faces and walked over together.
"Congratulations on your promotion to wizard, Lord Pei Ze."
"Congratulations."
"Thank you." Pei Ze hesitated, "Who are you two?"
The older wizard on the right said quickly: "My name is Yang Hui."
He pointed to the side. The fat wizard said: "This is Yue Neng. The two of us belong to the Wizard Management Department under the parliament. Today we received an order to take Lord Pei Ze to the inner city." Wizard Management
Department!
Pei Ze's expression changed, and memories of the past suddenly came to mind.
The Wizarding Administration Department is one of the many agencies directly under the Parliament and is responsible for managing non-combat matters related to wizards in the inner city.
This includes leading new wizards into the inner city, helping them become familiar with the inner city and arrange accommodation.
Pei Ze had already expected the arrival of the wizard management department, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
As if seeing Pei Ze's surprise, Yang Hui smiled and flattered: "Master Pei Ze is the only genius in Dawn City in the past hundred years who was promoted to a wizard before the age of eighteen. For an elite like you, our Wizard Management Department naturally Be more attentive."
"That's right." Yue Neng nodded with deep understanding.
Perhaps because they were responsible for specific affairs, Yang Hui and Yue Neng were different from the indifferent or gloomy wizards Pei Ze had encountered in the past, and they had a somewhat pyrotechnic atmosphere.
——At least when facing him.
"Then it's all thanks to you two adults." Pei Ze said with a smile.
"You're welcome, Lord Pei Ze." Yang Hui smiled and waved his hand, "Shall we leave now?"
"Okay." Pei Ze nodded.
"Master Pei Ze, please come with us."
Yang Hui waved his hand, and a carriage parked on the roadside not far away immediately drove over.
"It is forbidden to use any long-distance movement spells around the Ring of Truth, and you have to take the trouble of Mr. Pei Ze in the carriage."
Pei Ze smiled and nodded, and boarded the carriage with the two of them.
Accompanied by the rumble of the rolling wheels, the carriage rushed out of the academy smoothly and quickly.
