192 "Ancient Sword"!(1/2)
The man applauding was wearing a golden robe, brown leather boots, and a monocle hanging on his left eye, giving people an elegant and easy-going yet domineering look.
The little stuffed dumpling squatting on Zhang Guangmu's shoulder seemed to feel the pressure from the outside world, and turned on the grinning mode, trying to support Zhang Guangmu's scene.
Mooncake stared at the strange man fiercely, trying to warn him not to get too close: "Meow!"
Li Xiaoxiao frowned, came to Zhang Guangmu's side, and introduced in a low voice: "He is the Lord of Umbrella City, Jon, is George's biological brother."
Hearing this, Zhang Guangmu took out a finger and scratched Yue Cake's chin to comfort him. At the same time, he nodded slightly and said, "Yeah."
The man wearing a high-profile golden robe is not arrogant in character, but rather gentle, making people feel like they are taking a breath of spring breeze.
"Hello, Mr. Zhang Guangmu and Mr. Li Xiaoxiao, two generations of city lords from Moucheng."
Jon looked at the two of them with a smile, bowed slightly, and said in a slightly apologetic tone: "I'm very sorry that my stupid brother has caused you trouble."
"I already understand all the causes and consequences of the matter."
"I will compensate for the losses that George has caused you two and ensure that you are satisfied."
At this point, Jon's eyes turned slightly, and with a calm look, all the words that came to George's mouth were shattered, and he could no longer say them out.:.
At this time, Jon kept his smile and demeanor, and said calmly: "Actually, I have been here a long time ago, but I was worried that you two would misunderstand, so I didn't act rashly."
In fact, not only did Jon not act randomly, he even used "this was just an ordinary mage exchange" as an excuse to suppress the guards and servants in the chief advisor's mansion to keep these people calm. What should be done?
do what.
On the one hand, he did this because he had full confidence in his ability to handle things and felt that he could definitely calm the situation. On the other hand, he also felt that he could use this opportunity to temper his stupid brother and let George know how to do things.
importance.
After all, they have never been the children of destiny. After reaching their respective limits, they have reached the end of the road of magic. Their potential has been exhausted, and it is almost impossible to go further.
so……
From Jon's point of view, facing various things, it is the most stupid decision to respond simply and roughly like George did just because he is an official magician.
Zhang Guangmu looked Qiaoen up and down, and immediately felt the powerful magical power in this man.
The corners of his lips raised slightly and he smiled: "Compensation... I have already received it."
"Speaking of which, I have to thank George. Without him, it would still take a long time for me to break through to the realm of a formal magician."
Having said this, Zhang Guangmu flicked his fingers.
Bang!
The air in the room exploded, and a bright cube filled with golden-red flames swirled between him.
"Magic Core!"
After Jon blurted out these four words, he reorganized his expression, suppressed the piercing cold light in his eyes, and smiled bitterly: "Although I have seen it once just now, but..."
"This kind of thing, no matter how many times you see it, makes you jealous..."
Having said this, Jon sighed and warned in an experienced tone: "City Lord Zhang Guangmu, you have just stepped into the ranks of official magicians, and you have this thing. In the future, you want to surpass the official magicians and be promoted to magicians."
At the level of a warrior, the difficulty will be much lower than that of others, and you will hardly encounter any major difficulties along the way."
"But……"
"This can easily arouse the jealousy of other people who have exhausted their potential."
Jon shook his head and said: "Everything in the world has two sides. There are good and bad. In my family, because an outstanding heir like me was born, something like my brother George also happened at the same time.
You idiot who can't even do it."
"Your talent is so powerful that it makes people fearful, and it may also cause you a lot of trouble."
"My personal suggestion is that before you grow into a mid-level magician, try not to cast magic in front of other people, as that will easily provoke some enemies for no apparent reason."
The smelly brother George had a displeased face.
He didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, it was just that he was unlucky enough to meet a pervert like Zhang Guangmu.
If it were any other ordinary young city lord, this matter would not happen today.
After all, doesn’t George want to do something to prove himself in front of his brother?
It's a pity that Jon didn't even bother to look at him.
What I just said seems to be an exchange of experiences and suggestions, but in essence it is an attempt to turn hostility into friendship with Zhang Guangmu.
Zhang Guangmu also felt his kindness.
After folding his "Pride" magic into a three-dimensional structure, he has the ability to cover the five major categories of attack, defense, movement, healing, and status magic with one against five. At the same time, he has reached the level of a formal magician.
According to Jon, the current structure of "Pride" magic can be called the "Magic Core", which will be of great help to him in the future to be promoted to a magician.
At this moment, Zhang Guangmu also heard Qiao Qiao's other intention. The official magician is not the end, but just the beginning.
Strictly speaking, I am now a [lower-level magician]. After advancing, I will become a middle-level magician, and then I will become a high-level magician, and the higher level will be a mage and magister.
As the Lord of Umbrella City, Jon is also working hard to release goodwill.
"I appreciate your kindness."
Zhang Guangmu smiled slightly, feeling that Jon was a smart man, so he didn't play any fancy words with the other party, and went straight to the point: "You are now a mid-level magician, right?"
"I think Umbrella City is strong enough to be qualified to form an alliance with our Mushroom City and become a mutually beneficial partner."
The corners of Jon's lips raised, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he showed his strong intelligence gathering ability as soon as he opened his mouth: "I also think so in Mushroom City. Although there is only one official mage in Mushroom City, in my opinion, [Sword of Honor]
Scholar] Li Xiaoxiao also has abilities that are not inferior to those of lower-level magicians."
By saying this, on the one hand, he was showing off his own skills, and on the other hand, he was telling Zhang Guangmu that "in terms of overall strength, Mushroom City may not be stronger than Umbrella City."
After all, Umbrella City has two official magicians, and there is also a mid-level magician among them.
Just looking at the level of job agencies, Umbrella City should occupy a dominant position in this alliance.
Of course, this argument is not feasible for Zhang Guangmu.
He took the mooncake off his shoulder, held it in his arms, and sat on the main seat with a golden sword. While petting the cat, he said: "I understand what you mean."
"An alliance must be an alliance. The only difference lies in the 'primary and secondary relationship'."
"I can tell you the bottom line right now. Mucheng must dominate!"
After hearing this, the smile on Jon's face gradually faded, and his eyebrows frowned slightly.
"This is definitely not going to work."
He said in a melancholy tone: "After all, in addition to supporting the people of this city, I also want to compete for the position of the main city of Baishuang County in the future."
"Even magicians like me and George who have exhausted their potential want to gain more resources and force themselves to a higher level."
Yes, the same resources, used on Jon, may be able to train him to become a high-level magician. If used on other potential magicians, five or even ten high-level magicians can be trained!
But……
So what?
It belongs to others to become stronger. No matter how much resources you waste, you will be the one who benefits!
Every level of improvement for a magician is a leap in the essence of life. Not to mention other benefits, just the increase in lifespan can make countless people crazy!
Not all formal magicians are as gifted as George. With the help of his elder brother, he can barely climb the threshold, but he is a weakling.
Other formal magicians, after reaching this level and being recognized by the Magic Guild, will immediately learn "Encryption Magic" to cover up and blur the composition of the magic energy displayed in the process of releasing magic, so as to avoid being
People easily steal and learn from the past.
The above requirements originate from Regulation 38 of the "Laws of the Sacred Inviolability of Magical Knowledge".
Jon affirmed Zhang Guangmu's talent, but did not think that Zhang Guangmu would be his opponent now, so he dared to raise conditions.
But……
Zhang Guangmu did not follow what he said at all, but changed the topic and jumped to another aspect: "The chief consultant of Umbrella City next to me, Mr. George... The letter he wrote made me think about the [Undead Man]
Iron Ore] generated considerable interest."
"So I sent my confidants to conduct on-the-spot investigation."
"The so-called trouble with the undead is just a cover."
"The [Undead Iron Mine] is essentially a rich [mana particle crystallization deposit]."
"I think you should also know the news."
Zhang Guangmu said in a calm tone: "I can give you half a profit."
Hearing this, Jon's eyes flickered and he was a little shaken.
But after all, he still frowned and shook his head and said: "It's a little bit worse. If Moocheng wants to dominate the alliance, it must give up at least 30% of its interests."
Hearing this, Zhang Guangmu shook his head with a smile, scratched Yue Cake's furry little face, and said in a soft tone: "It's half done. If we can't reach an agreement, we'll just go to war."
"When the time comes, it will definitely be your side who will die."
Zhang Guangmu even spared a hand in his busy schedule and knocked on the table.
Bang! Bang!
