Wulian City, which has not been seen for two years, is becoming more and more prosperous. Among other things, there are several more houses on the outermost perimeter. The hastily pitched tents and rough houses with thatched roofs look simple, but
The people living there are full of energy.
They believe that if they work hard here for a few years, they can live a good life. So no one complains, they can only seize every opportunity and put their best efforts into it.
Both Halumi and Kaya felt that this place was a bit strange. However, they were also infected by the people coming and going, and smiles could not help but appear on their lips.
This time there is no mall system, this kind of magical knowledge that allows the association's senior executives to see through the truth. So the two girls did not have the opportunity to meet the president, which made them relieved. To see such a big shot, no matter how amiable he pretends to be, is innate.
There will be a sense of oppression.
The Chamber of Commerce's horse and carriage team took the two girls directly to the house that Lin bought in Wulian City. It is a single-family house with two floors and a small courtyard. It is far away from the commercial area and has its own peace. Public security is not a big problem.
The people living nearby are all well-known magicians or great magicians in Wulian City. Members of the Thieves Guild are not bold enough to cause trouble nearby.
Houses in such a community are unaffordable without a certain status and funds. When Lin originally entrusted the Chamber of Commerce with management, he also borrowed the name of his backer, President Cheng Guo Eaton, to be able to buy a house in this district.
As for money, it was not a problem from the beginning.
Today, the price of this real estate has increased several times compared to two years ago. Many magicians who have moved here have revealed that they want to buy it. However, the owner of the house is not short of money...
Although no one usually lives in it, the property was bought in the name of the president, so no one dares to occupy the house. Someone comes to clean it every three days. It is the steward of the chamber of commerce who is responsible for negotiating with Lin. His wife and
Daughter. To a certain extent, the good news is not left to outsiders. Lin has no objection to this. Anyway, the house is cleaned and it doesn't need to be dilapidated.
After the two girls decided to take the Second Ring Apprentice Test, Lin also said hello to the steward who was still on the journey. He contacted his wife, prepared some ingredients, and put them in the ice cellar in the basement of the house.
Today, this room finally welcomed two apprentices from its owner...
After moving their luggage and getting out of the car, the girls once again discovered the reason why they didn't want to take the carriage back and forth. Their buttocks split in half and the bones in their bodies were about to fall apart.
"Are they the two ladies who came back from the Tower of the Great Sage?" the old woman standing at the door asked with a friendly smile.
"Yes. Who is my sister?"
"Hey, I'm an old woman. I'm embarrassed to be called sister. You should call me mother-in-law." The old woman greeted the two girls, helped them pick up the extra luggage, and walked into the house while saying
: "Old lady, I have helped you take care of the house for several years, and you are here today. Come in quickly, I need to tell you about the layout of the house and where things are placed."
"Sure."
The girls had no time to spare with their hands. They grabbed a lot of things on one side and followed the old woman inside. As for the registration for the apprenticeship examination and the handing in of their teacher's magic knowledge, there is still time to wait until tomorrow. Let's do it today.
Have a night's rest, but it's a pity that there is no outdoor hot spring pool here, otherwise it would be first-class to relieve fatigue.
The next day, Halumi and Kaya energetically put on the small shawls that represented their status, tied up a ring of apprentice's silver thread, and went to the West Tower to report. At the same time, they learned that this month's assessment had just ended a while ago, and they had to
After two weeks, another inspector will be free to conduct assessments for the apprentices. This period happens to be the awkward middle period.
The girls were noncommittal. This period of time was regarded as the final sprint before the exam. They would bring so much luggage, just to prepare for such a situation, so Lin prepared a lot of magic materials for them to practice and consumables for meditation.
The reason why the itinerary cannot be arranged just right is that the trustworthy chariot and horse team escorts cannot match the right time. The current Wulian City is still in a state of insufficient transportation capacity and escorts.
Lin thought, anyway, there is a place to stay in Wulian City, so there is no need to deliberately arrange the itinerary, or even let the girls go on the road alone. And compared to traveling alone, living alone in a big house is more reassuring.
After completing the apprenticeship assessment application, the girls headed to the South Tower together, which is a magic tower that specializes in managing and collecting various magic knowledge. Of course, in order to hand over the magic knowledge entrusted by the teacher.
The sealed wooden box was handed over to the administrator, and the secretary on the side was transcribing the newly added records. Since it was handed over on behalf of the administrator, the magician who served as the administrator did not ask the two young apprentices more about the knowledge content.
In fact, asking was in vain. So the girls left quickly.
The magic knowledge turned in will be put into storage after review. There will also be a series of procedures to be done before it will be officially disclosed to the public. But this is a normal situation...
In the eyes of a certain teacher and two apprentices, they still regarded themselves as nobodies. At most, they were nobodies with a lot of money and a lot of greed. But in the eyes of caring people, it was not the same thing.
Not to mention magical knowledge such as browsers, no one dares to publicly say that they have figured out the programmatic editing method behind it. The transformation of the Tower of the Great Sage has killed many enemies with malicious intentions. These are also worthy of attention.
The main points.
Now that they have turned over their magic knowledge, these people who were snooping in the dark have purchased relevant knowledge from the association as soon as possible. Fortunately, many paper data can now be digitized, and then it is just a matter of copying and pasting. What if
It was copied by hand a few years ago, and the office in the south tower was not demolished by these magician thugs.
However, the girls were unaware of these things. They just used the magic mail system that had been established to send a letter to their teacher. The content was nothing more than that they had arrived in Wulian City safely, and the magic knowledge had been handed over to the association.
.
The mail server that has been established has of course been continuously tested and adjusted. It has been perfected before the girls set off, and Lao Lin has made it public a long time ago, including the URL of the web mailbox and detailed instructions for use.
Unfortunately, with the current forum traffic, the title of the discussion thread posted by Lin was clearly written, but no one could understand it. The poster was not one of the few active and popular people in the public discussion area. So soon, the discussion
The string sank to the bottom. Maybe a few thoughtful people noticed it. In line with the principle of making a fortune by keeping silent, they looked at it themselves but did not say anything about it.
The two apprentices who arrived at the Tower of the Great Sage secretly - in the eyes of others, this is what Harumi and Kaya did - handed over their teacher's magic knowledge to the south tower, attracting the attention of interested people. Magic
The mail system has just entered people's eyes.
In today's forums, the discussion threads in the public forums update too quickly and sink quickly. Therefore, as long as the topic is clear, people's usage habit is to search for keywords and then click to browse. The magic email system is undoubtedly a hot topic recently.
When everyone scrolled down the list of search results, they suddenly discovered that a certain tower owner had already announced it on his own. Moreover, unlike the server-side content submitted to the association, what was released was the user-side web interface.
This forum is going crazy.
Everyone has the need for long-distance communication. But not all content can be put in a place where everyone can watch it. Although there are many ways to work around it, you have to make an agreement with the other party first. Someone with a strange name
Discussion boards, or discussion threads as they are strangely called, are places where you and I secretly communicate...
If the two of them met and made an agreement, then that would be fine. But some idiot said this rudely on the forum, and then the discussion area that was originally used for secret communication has almost caught up with the public discussion area for chatting and spanking in popularity.
.In particular, there is a problem with the other party's permission setting, which does not restrict non-related people from entering and speaking... Then, this becomes a joke.
There are many jokes and more weird communication methods, which only show one thing. People have a high demand for one-to-one contact. So what if a certain tower owner released such a function?
It is not popular. More importantly, it does not cost extra. As long as you have a browser magic stone and can open a web page, you can open the web mailbox interface and use it.
Immediately, the forum was filled with praises. Of course, there were some who had opposite opinions, but they were quickly drowned out by the masses.
But there are also those who are clever and realize that in addition to forums, shopping malls and the latest email usage methods, web pages can also add other functions. These people put forward many strange and bizarre requests, strongly requesting a certain tower owner to create them.
Otherwise, it will be like this...
Unfortunately, no matter whether it was praise or criticism, praise or threats, no one could hear or see him. Because he was playing hard with the two dogs and having a great time.
This is also the possible reason why the magic mail system is now in full swing, diluting the presence of the two apprentices from the Great Sage's Tower in the Five United Cities.
The materials specially used for practice are all available, and the food can be entrusted to the old woman who helps with housekeeping and cleaning. The two girls stay at home and concentrate on practicing magic and meditation until the day of the assessment.
No matter how prosperous Wulian City is now, the bad memories of the past are still deeply embedded in my mind. In addition, under the influence of his teacher, staying at home is much better than going out and meeting people you don't want to see. So.
The girls' choice was pretty obvious.
In this low-key atmosphere, without many people paying attention, Halumi and Kaya successfully passed the second apprenticeship assessment and were qualified to tie the second silver thread.
The inspector in charge of the assessment praised the two girls for their cleansing test and proficient magic skills. But that was it. He did not pay the same level of attention as the previous round of assessment. After all, there was no chance this time.
Even though I received long-term care, no great magician came forward to express concern. Of course, I didn’t give him any money beforehand. If my performance wasn’t strong enough, I might have gone home crying.
