Volume 4 Falling into Hell Chapter 344 Apprentices (Part 1)
"But you said that this magic is still under development, and not even the lich Kel'Thuzad has mastered it."
"Yes, it is indeed the case." Liadrin admitted generously: "I didn't say I could give it to you right away. Give me some time and I will be able to make a perfect undead knight for you. To be precise,
They should be called the Dread Knights."
"That's good, that's good." Elos said happily: "Then what are we waiting for? Let's quickly select some apprentices and return to the main mage tower. You have to speed up the progress."
"I think so too, but..." Luo Xing stopped here. She hesitated for a moment, and finally all her words turned into a heavy sigh: "Oh! Things are a bit difficult.
ah."
"What on earth are you doing? Didn't you look confident just now?"
"As for technical problems, I have never regarded them as problems. There is never a difficulty that I cannot conquer in magic. As a genius, I still have such confidence." Liadrin
He frowned at this, "But the biggest problem now is that I have already run out of money, and there are not many magic materials stored in this castle. Therefore, due to the lack of raw materials, my magic and experiments have to stop.
Already."
"Oh..." Elos said meaningfully, and then said: "You came to me to ask for money, right?"

"Yes, yes." Liadrin nodded fiercely and said, "Why else would I be talking to you so much."
"But didn't we already sign the contract in time?" Eloise said, "I have never defaulted on the wages that I should pay you every month. Isn't it inappropriate for you to come to me to ask for money now?
.”
"Lord Iloth, you are wrong to say that." Liadrin seemed to be prepared, and she actively persuaded:
"Think about it, I don't do magic research for myself. After these terrifying knights are made, they are not for you to use. In any case, I can't pay for this research from my own pocket. Think about it, since I can do it
If you create one, you can naturally create the second and third... You can get such a powerful group of subordinates, but all you need to pay is research funds. And it is also your responsibility to ensure the normal operation of the magic zone.
Just do it.”
"Well, well, what you said makes sense." Eloise nodded and said, "Okay, I agree to this matter. You and Selina can discuss where money is needed. But we are really struggling here.
It's too remote, and no caravan has passed by for a long time. I'm afraid there are many things we can't buy even if we have money."
Liadrin's smile was as bright as a flower. She patted Iloth on the shoulder and said:
"Don't worry about this, Lord Elos. I have already thought about it. If there is no caravan coming, we can send the caravan out. By the way, even if I get everything done, I still need to be smart in the end.
The souls of knights. Lord Elos, I know that when you captured this castle, you harvested three high-quality knight souls, and I heard that you got another top-quality knight soul in the world.
Give it to me."
"Well, don't worry. If you can turn them into powerful helpers, I won't be stingy. As for what you said about sending the caravan out..."
Before Eloise could finish her words, Sherlock rushed in angrily and with a group of children.
Before he even entered the door, the demon shouted: "Sir, Lord Elos, Lord Chief Magician, I have brought the children for you. I have already selected them in advance when I brought them. These are all
What a good seedling."

"Well, let's talk about this later. It's not a big deal anyway." Eloise said to Liadrin, "Let's take a look at the children first."
Liadrin nodded, and then turned her attention to these children.
Shylock brought seven boys and three girls.
Most of them are human children, and a small number are children of races from other planes.
Among them are lizardmen, foxmen, orcs, and even hybrids of demons and other races, to name a few.
But now it seems that humans are more suitable for learning magic.
These children of different races all had the same expression. They all looked at Elos and others with horror on their faces, feeling uneasy about not knowing the fate that was about to come.
As Shylock grinned his ugly mouth and showed his fangs, he smiled flatteringly at Eloise, and then looked at the children, which made these children extremely frightened, and some of the timid ones even cried out of fear.
However, one of the little girls, it was obvious that she was the youngest among the group, she dared not to look at Sherlock and said to him: "You are the head of the devil, then will you eat children?"
"Hehe," Elos grinned, revealing his gleaming fangs and said, "I specialize in eating disobedient children. If you look at me again, I will eat all of you!"
These words were very effective. All the children closed their eyes quickly and hard, except for the youngest girl.
She was still looking at Eloise with her eyes wide open, so Eloise also stared at her.
After a while, mist started to form in the little girl's eyes, and then she just stood there and started crying loudly.
"Hahaha!" Elos smiled and rubbed the little girl's head and asked: "What is this child's name? How old is he? He is very courageous, and he dared to look at the devil for so long. His courage is commendable, not bad!"
"Well, her name is 'Daisy', and she is the daughter of a butcher in East City." Sherlock said, "She is only eight years old this year. Although she is a little younger, her magic talent is the highest among this group of children."
"How is it?" Iloth turned to Liadrin and asked, "That's it, I think it's good."
Liadrin rolled her eyes. Iloth is such an idiot. He can't be so fast. He can't pick cabbage so quickly.
What's the use of having courage?
So Liadrin waved her hand and said politely: "Lord Elos, you'd better just watch this. I can do this myself."
"Oh? Well, I'll just watch." Elos seemed a little aggrieved and said, "You actually dislike me like this. Didn't I just help you?"

"Ahem," Liadrin coughed twice, ignoring Elos's resentful words. She clapped her hands and said to the children: "Okay, you can all open your eyes.
.”
"Do you know what a magician is?" Liadrin asked kindly.
The children looked at Liadrin blankly. After a long silence, she suddenly felt like a fool. She glanced at Eloth, who was watching with excitement.
"Okay, I won't tell you too much today. Come here one by one, and I will give each of you a small crystal stone. After you take it, hold it in your hand and hold it tightly."
Liadrin demonstrated for the children: "Like me, hold it tight. Yes. That's fine. Now start to imagine. Close your eyes and imagine that you are getting into the palm of your hand. Imagine that you are entering the crystal.
Think about it again and again, repeat it again and again, you have to get in and don’t stop.”
About half an hour later, just when Eloise was about to fall asleep, the ceremony finally came to an end.
Liadrin received the ten small crystals happily, then nodded to Sherlock beside her and said:
"Originally, some of the qualifications are not that great, but I am really short of manpower now, so I want all these children, and I will leave the rest to you. Let the children go home first, and come down to my mage tower in three days.
, make it clear to them that from now on these children will study and live in my tower, and may only be able to return home once every one to two years."
"Do you want to teach ten at a time?" Sherlock asked with some surprise: "Although I know that it will not be a problem with your ability, but won't so many children trouble you?"
"Will it be very troublesome?" Liadrin raised her eyebrows and said, "I really didn't expect this, but fortunately, magic apprentice is not a safe profession, because five or six people can die during the experiment during the learning process.
It’s considered normal.”
Then she stopped looking at Sherlock's ugly face and started talking to the ten children:
"Okay, you have to listen carefully. I don't have time to waste time with you brats. My time is the most precious thing in the world. Now I will seize the time to teach you the first lesson. This is mine.
The first lesson my mentor taught me back then, I tell you now, if you are still alive in the future, you don’t have to worry about death. Anyway, you are your own apprentices, so you must teach them this lesson."
"Listen carefully, I will only say these words once."
Although she said this, Liadrin's words still carried the charm of charm. Both Eloth and Sherlock knew that these words would be deeply engraved in the minds of these children, and they would never be able to remember them for the rest of their lives.
