EP078. Standard is also indispensable
If it was just to send Shi Xiaolei and Beyonetta back to New York, just open a portal, and Gu Yi himself didn't have to come here together.
In fact, the reason why he personally brought the two back to the sanctuary in New York was that Gu Yi had another purpose.
One is to let Beyonetta recognize the door.
Speaking of which, the day I met Shi Xiaolei, Gu Yi told him the address of the New York Sanctuary.
Because Shi Xiaolei is not a mage, and he doesn't seem to be very interested in magic, Gu Yi was not very expecting that he would often visit the Sanctuary in New York. But after so many days, he hasn't come once, which is a bit...
Well, in fact, Gu Yi was too busy and forgot that Shi Xiaolei had been traveling for more than ten days, so he couldn't even come to visit the New York Sanctuary.
Unaware of this, he was worried that Beyonetta would never come here like Shi Xiaolei, so Gu Yi simply brought the two of them over here and recognized the door first - whether it wasn't remembered or didn't have time, or he thought it was important to come to the door for the first time and didn't dare to take action easily? It didn't matter. After experiencing the "first time", he would naturally be much easier and casual.
The second is to give Beyonetta a hanging ring.
What is the cause, I won’t repeat it here. In short, with Gu Yi and Beyonita reaching a cooperation agreement, both parties have already stood in the same camp.
Since she wants to cooperate with Beyonita and ask her to help deal with invaders from different dimensions, she must be given a hanging ring to improve her mobility.
After all, the time and location of the invaders are not fixed, and the number and strength are very different.
If Gu Yi was entangled by the enemy boss and could not get rid of himself, the elite minions below would be too powerful, and ordinary mages would not only not be able to deal with it, but even self-protection would be a problem...
My life is almost impossible to save, so how can I open the door and ask for help?
And at such an emergency, Gu Yi, who was hoping to be unable to make a move, opened the door for Beyonita?
Obviously not very reliable.
Therefore, giving Beyonetta a hanging ring to give her the ability to open the door and teleport herself is the most convenient and safest arrangement.
As for why I came to New York instead of giving her one directly at Kama Taj... The reason is very simple. The thing about Hanging Ring seems to be a big deal, and it seems that every mage has one, but in fact, it is only because the number of Hanging Rings in stock is more than the number of mages.
Hundreds of mages and thousands of hanging rings, and the supply is oversupply, so people misunderstand that this thing is not a valuable road product.
But in fact? There are only a thousand pieces, is there really too many hanging rings that can be wasted at will?
The answer is obviously no.
In order to manage these precious resources well, Ancient One formulated some rules.
The wizards affiliated with the New York Sanctuary need to receive their own hanging rings from the New York Sanctuary. Similarly, the hanging rings they use must be registered in the local sanctuary. As the base camp, Kama Taj is responsible for keeping the hanging rings that have not yet found the owner.
For example, if Daniel Drum dies and a mage from the London Sanctuary where he was originally stationed is appointed to New York to replace Drum. Then the mage must hand over the ring he received in the London Sanctuary and replace it with the one left by Drum.
If you have to keep the one you have been using, it is not impossible. However, you need to re-modify the registration information of the hanging ring, and the one left by Drum must be handed over to the Kama Taj headquarters.
It sounds rather verbose, but it’s not that troublesome to do, but no matter how simple the procedures are, there is a charter.
Unless there are exceptions like Strange... let me put it this way, if he had not been chosen by Gu Yi as his heir, without the name of "Cama Taj's top leader", he would not have received his own ring in Kama Taj. According to the rules, he had to return to New York to be assigned to his own one from the sanctuary.
In Beyonita's words, he was neither the heir chosen by Gu Yi nor the possibility of becoming the next Supreme Mage.
Based on the fact that she will be with Shi Xiaolei in the future and live with him for a long time in New York, giving her a hanging ring from the name of the New York Sanctuary is the most suitable and convenient arrangement.
It's a bit far from going on, so the book is back to the topic.
Perhaps because the nature of his magic power is different from that of the mages, after obtaining the ring, Beyonetta did not immediately learn how to use it.
I tried back and forth more than a dozen times, and stopped from time to time to listen to Gu Yi's guidance and explanation... Unconsciously, more than two hours passed, and the sky outside the window was already dark and the moon was rising.
As spectators, they are always more likely to get distracted and become bored.
I found it was a bit late and I was idle and had nothing to do. While Sister Bei stopped to rest, Shi Xiaolei stepped forward and made a fuss.
"It's getting late, Sister Bei, it's almost time for us to go back." He pointed out the window and persuaded Shi Xiaolei softly: "I just returned to New York today. I didn't meet Conna and Sylvia when I went home before. Why don't I practice here today and wait for the day tomorrow... Anyway, you don't have to go to work and you can come here anytime."
"Uh~." After being reminded by Shi Xiaolei, he noticed the passage of time.
Looking out the window and then at Gu Yi with a gentle smile in front of him, Sister Bei made a choice: "Okay, then I'll come back tomorrow?"
"Welcome at any time." Gu nodded: "If I'm not here, you can ask Master Drum. The portal is just an entry-level spell, and with his ability, it is enough to guide you to learn this spell."
In conjunction with Gu Yi's words, Drum stepped forward quietly and nodded to Beyonetta: "Welcome at any time. It just so happened that I had nothing to do during this period. I felt so uncomfortable staying in the sanctuary every day."
"Haha, that's not right." Seeing that things were moving in the direction they wanted, Shi Xiaolei was in a good mood: "Daniel, haven't you said that you have been thinking about the food I made for this period of time? I'll drive her over tomorrow and bring you a meal?"
“Free?”
"Of course." He pointed to Beyonita, and Shi Xiaolei shrugged: "I still expect you to spend more time teaching her, just eat some food, just treat it as a tuition fee for you. What do you think?"
"Trade." He reached out and shook Shi Xiaolei. Drum unconsciously licked the corner of his mouth: "If possible, I want a fried noodles. Emmm, cover the noodles with an extra egg cake, the kind that tastes a little spicy."
"No problem, it's wrapped around me. Haha, this is the first time I've delivered takeout myself..." When he said that the takeout, a thought suddenly flashed through Shi Xiaolei's mind and he laughed unconsciously: "Or you can open a portal and go directly to my house and eat a bite of it that has just been cooked. Haha, from this point of view, the portal is quite useful."
