Throne of Magical Arcana

"Weekend? So soon?" Hearing Florence's lazy voice after the electromagnetic communication, Lucien was very surprised. With His Excellency Morris' stinginess, would he make the ring so quickly? Only two days until the weekend!

Allinge is not like Alto, the City of Psalms. Weekends generally refer to Sundays.

Florence seemed to be covering her mouth and smiling coquettishly: "This time you were almost 'abducted' away in the will of the elements. The teacher felt ashamed, so he accelerated the progress of making the ring."

After a pause, she stopped laughing and became a little serious: "At least, after you wear three Holm crown rings and the 'Immortal Throne' robe, you have a certain possibility of saving your life in the face of high-ranking magicians. "

"Really?" Lucien was even more surprised. The high-level members of the elemental will definitely didn't know that they had already realized the initial materialization of the world and were able to use high-level items three times in a row. How could they have the confidence to face high-level items? Can a super magician save his life?

Florence giggled and said: "Constant magic is very good. The teacher is not stingy with materials. The magic combination of the two rings is very good, so he regretted it after making it. Hehe, he even wanted to cancel the award banquet. Save this paltry amount of money.”

This is really the style of Lord Morris. Lucien asked with some expectation: "Ms. Florence, which two magic rings are constant?"

"Well, keep it secret, it will be clear when you get it." Florence teased Lucien with a smile, "Keeping curiosity and a sense of anticipation are the secrets of permanent youth."

Zizizi, the electromagnetic communication technique was interrupted, leaving Lucien helplessly flipping through books such as "Book of Astrology and Elements" and "Encyclopedia of Advanced Magic" to guess what his two rings and one magic robe would each hold. magic effect.

The shrunken Afris lay on the sofa, repeatedly looking at his salary for this month with relish.

…………

Radiant Cathedral, a retreat room.

The Speaker of the House of Nobles, Duke Rex, the "Griffin of Kings", is meeting with Cardinal Philibert, Baha'u'llah, the giant of the tribunal, and others.

"Rex, I understand what you mean, and I agree with this idea, and will report to the Holy City." There was no anger on Philibel's face, only a little tiredness.

In the Kingdom of Holm and the other three countries, the strength of the church is at a complete disadvantage. After all, the branches of the Magic Council are concentrated in a few cities, most of the legendary magicians are in Allinge, and the church is scattered. To recruit them, you have to worry about other forces.

Stone, the head of the Holy Grail Knights, who has always shown that he wants to fight, is quite calm at this time: "We can rest assured that we can know the attitude of the nobles. I hope that when the opportunity arises, you can cooperate well. This matter We'll try to calm it down."

It is best not to go to war when the Magic Council is not ready. Stone is not a fool. He has to choose the most difficult path, and wait for the opportunity to win over the nobles. It is not a retreat, and it does not violate his knightly creed.

Although Bahá'u'llah and Valenhir were not very satisfied, it was more worthwhile to use this incident in exchange for a change in the attitude of the nobles of Holm, Calais, Briana and other countries.

"But according to what I know, nobles such as James and Russell are more inclined to the Magic Council. I don't know what you can do with Rex?" Philibel raised the issue of the division within the nobles.

Rex nodded stiffly and solemnly: "The so-called enlightened nobles who are biased towards the Magic Council are actually very few, accounting for only about 10% of the number of nobles in the kingdom, and less than half of the nobles who are close to the church. Neutral, but definitely do not exclude the church, as long as it is in their interests and creates a situation that cannot be swayed by them, they will completely fall to us."

"Rex, you forgot, most of the nobles are consistent with the lords, and you are not the king of Holm, nor the heir to the throne." Stone is a holy knight, and he understands the mentality of the nobles. Reaching the point where the nobles lose their minds, they are sure to "rally around the lord". No matter how stupid the nobles were, they knew that once their loyalty to the lord was trampled on the ground, they could only fall apart in the future, relying on the help of the church to maintain the system and lose their independent status.

Rex was silent for a while, and his voice became low: "I am sure to convince His Majesty the King."

"His Majesty Feltis is old, and his knight level is not high. You may be called by the Lord in a few years. Are you sure you will find the opportunity in a few years?" Philibel shook his head slightly, as a long-term helper for Feltis. The healing clergy knew Feltis' physical condition very well, and he knew that he was old and would not live for a few years, which was an irreversible trend of divine arts.

Rex's face was gloomy, and he didn't deny it.

Philibel looked at the others, and continued in a flat tone without any waves: "And Prince Patrick is too biased towards the Magic Council."

"Well, Prince Patrick is too partial to the Magic Council." Rex repeated in a low voice.

At 8 o'clock on Sunday night, the Allinge Branch of the Will of the Elements was brightly lit and the wine was mixed.

"Lucien, President Morris will be in a bad mood for a long time this time. There is nothing particularly important, so it's best not to look for him." Gaston held a wine glass and teased "forcing a smile" to entertain the other seniors. Morris of the Super Sorcerer.

Several members of the Arcane Review Committee naturally gathered together, surrounded by their own students and friends, such as magicians such as Larry, Urisser, K, and Lazar from the Lucian Institute of Atomic Research.

Lucien shook his head and said with a smile: "After the door of the microcosm is opened, there may be many major contributions worthy of being recorded in the annals of the elemental field. Your Excellency Morris has to adapt to this situation in advance."

"Really?" Morris' voice appeared from behind the crowd like a ghost, with a strong "gritting teeth" in his tone.

When he and Florence and other high-level executives who were good at communication came back after greeting a circle of guests, they just heard Lucien's words, and immediately felt as if they were shot in the heart by a sharp arrow.

"Of course, this is a brand new field, which involves the deep mysteries of matter." Lucien seemed to be unaware of Morris's "hate", and said frankly to the members, "So I suggest that Hall The Mu Crown Award will be awarded annually."

"What, it is awarded once a year? This is absolutely not possible!" Morris' voice was slightly higher, with a "serious" expression.

Florence grinned and looked at Lucien, not understanding why he wanted to provoke her teacher, and other high-ranking members of Elemental Will also looked over in amused and strange manner.

Lucien smiled indifferently: "If there is no achievement worthy of the Holm Crown Award in a year, then it will be vacant directly. If there are several, only one award will be awarded a year, so as to avoid awarding several awards at once. The pain of a ring, and it is best to issue it at a fixed time, so that the magicians of the council are full of expectations."

"It's a good idea!" Morris "very much agrees."

"The problem is, this only postpones the number of years for the ring to be issued, and it cannot fundamentally reduce the loss of the warehouse." Seeing her teacher smiling, Florence couldn't help but hit him, and at the same time looked at Lucien with a smile, What exactly is he trying to do?

She didn't believe that a guy like Lucien would make suggestions aimlessly.

Lucien shook his glass, smiled and said, "Whether it's materials or money, it won't grow if you put it in the warehouse, but what if you use it to invest in profitable projects? A Holm crown ring will be issued one year later, What is the annuity return that can be received? Anyway, it will be someone else’s sooner or later, why not use it to earn some annuity income? A pool of stagnant water can only decay slowly, and a flowing spring will be clear for a long time.”

"What do you want to do?" Morris and the others were not fools. When it came to this point, how could they not understand Lucien's thoughts.

Lucien said with a smile: "I talked to Mr. Arthur Doyle of the Holm Mining Union Bank. He is very interested in using the electricity converted from water flow, such as reducing the material and requirements of magic crystal lamps, and promoting them to nobles. Among them, such as transforming the magic that retains sound into alchemy items, such as extensively building magic towers or using other methods to greatly reduce the level of electromagnetic communication, I think it must be a very suitable alchemy item for popularization at that time."

Morris and the others were quite familiar with the matter of Lucien making a fortune through Jinkela, and they all nodded slightly at this time, which sounded very good.

Lucien continued to smile and said: "The most important thing is that once nobles, citizens, and farmers get used to the life of popular magic, their belief in the church will be shaken and lowered. We magicians really don't need the help and trust of ordinary people. , but since the church is widely preaching, it means that they must have a certain degree of demand for this aspect, and what the enemy wants is what we must destroy!"

"When the foundation of the church's existence is shaken, they will not be far from decline."

"This is the general trend brought about by the development of magic. In front of it, any attempt to stop it will be completely crushed!"

"Let's discuss this matter in a few days." Morris was quite "moved", and turned to the high-level proposals of other elemental wills.

Seeing that no one objected, Lucien really laughed in his heart. This way of promoting alchemy items will definitely receive a crazy counterattack from the church in the mid-term. If he eats alone, other magicians will definitely laugh at him. Why not take the opportunity to bring the will of the elements into battle? car.

Greed is fine, but reason cannot be blinded.

Morris, in a better mood, boarded the front half-height platform and said to all the guests:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the development of arcane art and magic is rumbling forward like a steam train, bringing changes like never before, and we are presenting the Holm Crown Award today to two outstanding arcanists in recognition of For their remarkable contributions to the fields of elemental and alchemical magic."

"First, let's invite Mr. 'Elemental Order' Lucien Evans to come up."

When Lucien stood next to him, Morris began to give the award speech: "He discovered new particles, opened the door to the microcosm, and made groundbreaking and breakthrough contributions to the development of elemental magic. His research in the field of elements It is of great importance and may bring us a new era of microcosm!"

He took out a ring with a unique shape, like two silver rings intertwined, with a pure blue gemstone inlaid in the center, shining brightly and very beautifully.

"The Will of the Elements and the Royal Magic Court of Holm thank Mr. Evans for his great promotion of the development of elemental magic with this ring. It is the thirtieth Crown of Holm, and its name is 'Electronics'."

"Origin" is the twenty-eighth, and "Ionization" is the twenty-ninth, so the award is given to Lucien first, and "Origin" is a reissue, which is placed after "Electronics".

Amid the applause, Lucien took the ring, and the inner layer of the ring undoubtedly read: "819 Crown of Holm, thanks to Mr. Lucien Evans".

The initial substantive perception of the world allowed Lucien to quickly imprint his spiritual power and obtain the information of the ring.

"Holm's Crown Ring 'Electronics', a seventh-level perfect magic item (a seal), requires mental strength to reach the level of a high-level magician to unlock the seal and exert its full power."

"This one-of-a-kind ring is powerful with its constant seven-ring magic 'anti-magic ray'!"

Ask for a few monthly tickets, which are only a few tickets away from the previous ones! Although there is a double at the end of the month, but now it can maintain its position at the top of the overall list, and the effect is even better~
