Arcane Lord

"Xia Duo, what should I do with my current store? Do I want to close it?" Edrich suddenly asked.

Although he has now rekindled his hope of learning magic, he is still a little reluctant to open the shop for two years. It would be a bit regretful to give up just now.

Seeing his tangled look, Xia Duo couldn't help but persuade him, "Opening a shop in a mage tower is actually taking money out of the lord's pocket. If you really want to continue on the path of magic, the shop will still be closed." Drop it!"

"ah?"

Edrich was in a daze. Then he remembered that his father had said similar words to him, but at that time he only thought that his father was discouraging his enthusiasm. Unexpectedly, Sha Duo also said the same!

The persuasion of his companions was more convincing than that of his elders. Although Edrich couldn't figure it out for the moment, he still decided to follow Sha Duo's advice.

"I understand, I will get rid of the store as soon as possible!"

Seeing that Edrich was so obedient, Sha Duo felt a little proud. In fact, a mere retail store was nothing at all. What he was doing now was poaching the corner of the Mage Tower!

…

After dinner, the study groups separated, and Xia Duo also returned to his den.

At the desk, Xia Duo opened his notes and began to summarize the teaching points and recommended books for the apprenticeship stage. Xia Duo was actually very dissatisfied with the theoretical books for the apprenticeship stage in the Mage Tower. Not only were there missing parts, but they were also not systematic.

The specific books are even more detailed and inappropriate, and are not suitable as basic textbooks at all.

There was even a moment when he actually wanted to compile a set of apprentice textbooks, but after thinking about it, he gave up on such a limelight thing.

For now, just keep communicating within a small circle.

When Xia Duo summarizes the key points, he is actually sorting out his own magic system silently. If he wants to go further, he must lay a stronger foundation.

The next day, in the hall on the first floor of the Mage Tower, the apprentices gathered together, waiting for the house mage to arrive to arrange work. Yesterday, many people were notified that they needed to adjust their work, but many people did not need to adjust.

Xia Duo mingled among the crowd, and what he heard most was that he wanted to move to the public level while adjusting his work. A few people also talked about the apprentices who died because of the orc wave, but most people didn't care about them.

After all, only after these people died did they have the opportunity to adjust their work.

At this time, Xia Duo felt extremely lucky. They had never encountered an orc outside the norm once. Although it was indeed dangerous a few times, they were all successfully resolved in the end.

"Shado, Shado."

Hearing someone whispering his name from behind, Xia Duo turned around and saw that it was Donald, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. Xia Duo had made a small profit from Donald and his group, which supported his early expenses.

"Donald, what do you want from me?"

"I saw you the day before yesterday."

"Did you see me? Awarding ceremony?"

"Yes, I saw you, and Dean." There was an inexplicable flavor in Donald's words. Sha Duo entered the mage tower with him in the same batch, and Dean was originally an ordinary apprentice. Unexpectedly, the two of them came from the Orc Tide. He survived and was rewarded by the lord.

However, he did not continue the topic, but asked:

"What job are you going to change?"

"If you don't plan to change, you should stay in the Arcane Garden." Xia Duo didn't hide it, after all, he would know it after just a little inquiry.

Donald's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this, "Xia Duo, can I go to the Arcane Garden?"

"If you want to go, just go. I can't decide anything."

At this time, Xia Duo had guessed what Donald wanted to do, and he did not refuse Donald who came forward. The study group was short of backup force.

"Great!" Donald almost beamed, "I used to work in the Materials Department. Although mages came by every day, all of them had a straight face. We didn't even dare to say hello, let alone ask questions. "

"It's the same in the Arcane Garden. The steward is only busy with his own business and never pays attention to us."

"Uh-" Donald was a little stunned. Did he have to admit in person that he was going to Xia Duo? Although he had this idea, the young man was too thin-skinned to say it directly.

The two chatted for a few more words, and then the internal affairs mage came over from the direction of the elevator.

There was a sudden silence in the hall, leaving only the voice of the internal mage, "Due to the loss of some apprentices, some work needs to be rearranged. Apprentices with relevant experience will be given priority."

Only then did Xia Duo remember that he had been in the Mage Tower for so long, but he had only learned how to make simple magic scrolls, and knew nothing about other things such as processing materials and making potions.

And he is even more unwilling to do chores such as cooking, laundry, and mopping the floor.

Now it seems that the Arcane Garden is indeed the most suitable for him!

Due to the shortage of some "high-quality jobs" personnel, no one in Arcane Garden competed with Shado. This time, Sami, Devine and Dean all successfully obtained jobs in Arcane Garden.

As for Edrich, perhaps because of the businessman image he has always shown, even the internal mage seemed to have forgotten about this person and did not arrange a job for him at all.

Just like a transparent person.

Most of the more than 30 ordinary apprentices in Arcane Garden stayed in Arcane Garden, and only a few chose to adjust their work. However, except for the newly joined Donald, no one else joined in.

There are currently only thirty people in Arcane Garden, including formal apprentices like Sha Duo.

Maybe this wave of orcs really killed many apprentices.

…

After adjusting their work, the house mage drifted away, and Xia Duo also went straight to the elevator and went to the Arcane Garden.

After arriving, I discovered that Edrich, a transparent man, had already arrived first and was squatting not far from the mage on duty, drawing something casually on the ground with his fingers.

Seeing Xia Duo, Edrich immediately stood up and greeted him, "Xia Duo! Sammy! You are finally here!"

The apprentices who came with Sha Duo were curious when they saw Edrich, "Why is he here?"

"Does Edrich also want to work in the Arcane Garden?"

"It's Xia Duo! He's with Xia Duo!"

…

Xia Duo ignored the whispers of the apprentices. After reporting to the mage on duty, he walked towards the orchard, and the members of the study group quickly followed.

As for the ordinary apprentices, they entered the building behind the mage on duty to change clothes, get tools, and prepare to work. After witnessing all this, Donald became more convinced that following Sha Duo would be beneficial.

Edrich is the most obvious example. Before today, who would have thought that the apprentice merchant occupying the transcription room would come to the Arcane Garden?

"Hey! You! Why are you so scared! Change your clothes quickly, get your tools, and go to work. There are fewer people now, but there may not be less work!"

"Yes, yes, yes, my name is Donald, and I am a group of people who entered the Mage Tower with Xia Duo. Can you tell me what to do in the Arcane Garden?"

I don't know whether it was because of Donald's almost humble attitude, or because he and Sha Duo entered the Mage Tower in the same batch, but the face of the ordinary apprentice who he asked about immediately changed, and he pulled Donald aside with a smile and chatted quietly.
