Chapter 221 Ask for advice

 It’s hard to refuse such hospitality.

If you say any more, it will seem unkind.

So Duke finally agreed to what his teacher Suktara did and transferred part of her property to Duke's name.

Of course, these industrial transfers can be handed over by the two financial personnel and will not hinder the normal teaching of Suktala and Duke.

Ding bell.

Suktara pulled the bell and called his assistant Subbotan: "Go and bring Terrence in."

"Yes, sir."

After a while, Terrence sat at the desk.

Suktara looked at Terrence, who was honest and courteous to him, and said gently: "How long have you been in the Mage Tower?"

"Thirty years, mentor."

"Yes, I still remember that when you were a child, you entered my mage tower and grew up step by step to where you are today."

"It's all because of your guidance, mentor, that I am where I am today."

Suktara shook his head: "It's your own efforts and the blessing of spirituality on you. The teacher just guided you."

After a pause, she continued: "I think you have guessed that what I meant by calling you here is that the mentor is old and it is time to find a new owner for this mage tower. I think Duke is the most suitable new owner.

What do you think?"

Even though Terrence was mentally prepared, after hearing Suktara's confirmation in person, some inexplicable and complicated emotions still intersected in his mind.

But he quickly eliminated his distracting thoughts, glanced at Duke, nodded and said, "I believe in your choice, mentor."

"What a good boy." Suktara smiled happily, "The tutor is no longer doing research. I will gradually guide Duke to take over the projects that Master Tower has taken over. So, Terrence, the tutor hopes that you can help Du

Gram."

Duke also cooperated and said: "I am new to the field of alchemy. I hope you can help me and conduct in-depth research in this field together."

After hearing this, Terrence thought for a moment and said, "I will follow your arrangement, mentor."

This is how things are settled.

In a flash, the day of the New Year arrived, and Duke stayed at Suktala Master Tower to celebrate the New Year with his teacher.

With the ringing of the bell, the storm year 4415 is ushered in.

This year, Duke turns nineteen.

"Sir, this is the Giant of Light's dividend this year." General Manager Vial came to visit the Mage Tower on the second day after the Chinese New Year.

Taking his wife with him.

Vivian did not go home to celebrate the New Year this year. Her identity has changed, so she stayed to spend the New Year with Duke.

The Vuillards missed her and came over as guests.

"The dividends will be handed over directly to my treasurer. I will ask Vivian to have a meal with you at noon. If you rest here at night, I will come back in the evening and have dinner with you." Duke said politely.
"No, no, no, you are busy with your business. We will go back after lunch." Vuillard said hurriedly, "Although the company has a holiday during the New Year, there are a lot of things to do. I have to go back to check the accounts in the evening."
Giant of Light has completed its third round of financing.

Today's valuation has reached five million, and new factories have been built throughout the entire wind industry to supply products directly from the place of origin.

The Giant of Light has never set foot in the other eleven areas.

Transportation is inconvenient, and you don’t have the ability to get involved. There are very few large companies across fields in the entire Seven Towers Federation.

Duke’s patent fees, but my hands trembled when I received the fees.

However, after collecting it, except for part of it that was kept as daily life and experimental funds, the rest was used to repay Suktala. Although Suktala had decided to hand everything over to Duke for inheritance, it was the same thing.

Keep things together.

You can't rely on your status as successor to refuse to pay back the money.

"Oh, by the way, General Manager Vial, the third round of financing has ended. You can make an announcement within the company that the company will no longer raise funds externally." Duke thought of something and directly ordered, "Imitate the Xibidi Spirit Mine Company.

system."

After returning from attending the natural history conference last year, Dinjige contacted many shareholders of Runwanjia, divested his capital from Runwanjia, and joined Giant of Light.

But Duke requires that these shareholders only have the right to pay dividends and have no decision-making power.

The company will not set up a board of directors, and all management will be handed over to professional managers, and he, the founder, has absolute control.

Many Runwanjia shareholders are opposed to this request.

Therefore, not many arcane mages came to raise funds in the end, but they also raised millions of funds to expand the production of Giant of Light.

"Yes, I will make an announcement after I return to the company."

"Then I won't accompany you. I have something to do and I have to go out." Duke asked Vivian to accompany his parents, and he took the shuttle to leave.

During the Chinese New Year, it is natural to visit relatives and friends.

It has been more than two years since Duke has been integrated into the arcane mage circle in Shenjiao City, and he has gotten to know a lot of people, so he needs to move around frequently.

I went to visit Penrose first, chatted with my former mentor for a while, and then got up to say goodbye. I went to Erwin's Wizard Tower again, but I didn't see Erwin, but I left the gift. Then I went there again.

Shanmao Town is not far from Shenjiao City.

Bobcat Town is the fiefdom of the Bobcat family. Bobcat Baron Jovis Bobcat is a third-level arcanist and one of the rulers of the Union Tower.

Duke has no connection with Jovis. He is here to visit Joanna Bobcat.

Joanna is his best friend at the moment - strictly speaking, the only two people who can be considered friends are Joanna and Shanfis.

As for Kilia Furious Waves, she is a confidante.

"Hi, Duke!" Joanna saw Duke and gave her a strong hug, "Happy New Year, may your spirit be with you forever!"

"Happy New Year, may your spirit be with you forever." Duke smiled.

"My dad has a guest. I'll take you around Bobcat Town first. Is this your first time in Bobcat Town?" Joanna said quickly, "Oh, by the way, I called my brother over. He's in the old guys."

In front of me, I must be feeling aggrieved."

However, Joanna failed to call out her brother Jodik Lynx. Instead, she came out and called Duke, and they entered the castle hall together.

"Dad, Lord Bernoulli, Duke is here." Joanna shouted honestly.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

At the top of the living room, two stern arcane mages sat, one with a middle-aged appearance and the other with gray hair.

"Duke, come here." Jovis waved, "Let me introduce you, this is Mr. Bernoulli."

"Hello, Lord Bernoulli." Duke saluted.

In my heart, I was very curious. Bernoulli actually came to Shenjiao City during the New Year period. It seemed to be related to the urban construction plan of Cuihai City.

After he informed Keyston of the outbreak in the Ocean of Insects, the Cuihai Valley development war evolved into the Cuihai City urban construction plan. The Bernoulli family's hope of quietly occupying this large spring went bankrupt, but Bernoulli did not give up.
Instead, they actively planned and gained the leadership of Cuihai City’s urban construction and development.

According to what Duke heard from other Arcane mages, Bernoulli seemed to have given up his family's fiefdom and planned to imitate the Raging Waves family and integrate with the future Cuihai City.

Of course.

Duke knew very little about the struggles between big shots, and it was difficult for him to participate.

His only thought was to wait for Christian Raging Waves to fulfill his promise and hand over the chicken's grandmother, the ancient trilobite spirit, to him.

Bernoulli nodded lightly: "You as well, Scholar Duke, for such a young scholar, you are truly blessed by spirituality."

Almost any arcane mage who meets Duke will be amazed at Duke's youth.

"Duke's talent is undoubted. He is not only outstanding in natural history, but also in the fields of card making and alchemy." Jovis said.

Bernoulli replied: "I have heard that Suktara seems to have chosen Duke as his successor?"

Before Duke could answer, Jovis laughed: "This old lady, when Duke was first promoted to Arcane Mage, she considered him as his successor. But having said that, the old lady did have a vicious vision, and she could see Duke at a glance.

talent."

Seeing that the conversation was going to go on forever, Joanna interrupted without hesitation: "Dad, Joe Dick and I will take Duke out for a walk."

"Go ahead and stay here for lunch." Jovis nodded.

Duke and the impatient Jodick Bobcat said goodbye to Bernoulli, and then followed Joanna out of the living room.

"Phew!" Jodik breathed out, "Duke, you saved me!"

Like Joanna Lynx, Jodik Lynx is also a level 1 arcane mage, but he is nearly twenty years older than Joanna.

Now he is almost fifty years old.

"I knew you couldn't stay any longer, so Duke came to play with me, so I roped you in." Joanna patted her brother on the shoulder.

Jodick laughed: "Of course I know, sister, you are the most generous!"

Although he has been running for five years, Jodik is still unmarried and is far more interested in eating, drinking and having fun than pursuing spiritual arcana.

"By the way, Duke, I haven't congratulated you on your successful graduation." Joanna said.

Duke smiled and said: "After graduation, I just change to a mage tower and continue to do research. It doesn't make any difference to me."

Jodik gritted his teeth and said, "Oh my God, you still chose to stay and work in the Mage Tower after graduation? Isn't this going to kill you? In my Mage Tower, I don't go in more than ten times a year. I saw the experiment

I have a headache in my room."

"This is a common problem in our family." Joanna sighed, "My dad doesn't like to study academics, and my brother and I don't like to study academics. Fortunately, there is still the path of arcanist, otherwise there would be no lynx in spiritual arcana.

A place in the family."

Jodick believed deeply: "Yes, this is a common problem in the family. I think there is something wrong with the short-tailed lynx bloodline refined by our ancestors... We should let my father replace the bloodline of the next generation of the family. Maybe there will be a chance to cultivate scholars."

."

The short-tailed lynx is a 5-ring spirit animal, commonly known as lynx.

The Lynx family is the fusion of the bloodline of the short-tailed lynx. When promoted to level 1, both the Grand Knight and the Arcane Mage can stimulate the Lynx bloodline and gain a light and agile body.

"This is impossible. Although the lynx bloodline may have a common problem of not liking to study, it also gives us stronger arcane talents. I think it is good."

Joanna thought very openly about this: "Let me or my children in the future study academics all day long like Duke, ah, that would be too terrible!"

Hearing this, Duke smiled calmly: "It sounds like my life is quite miserable now."

"It's very difficult for me to understand, Duke, you scholars, if you stay in the laboratory all day long, won't you feel dizzy, have chest tightness and shortness of breath?" Chodik asked seriously, maybe he really didn't understand,

This is why.

"Jordick, what do you like? I mean hobbies."

"Well, let me think about it, I like dancing, I like it very much. Dancing makes me feel excited from the bottom of my heart."

"Yes, dancing can make you excited from the bottom of your heart." Duke said, "This is the same as us delving into the spiritual arcana, exploring the spiritual arcana, getting to know the world, and understanding the laws behind things.

It also excites us."

Jodik's eyes widened.

After a while, he shook his head: "I don't understand!"

Joanna echoed: "I don't understand it either, nor do I want to understand it. Duke, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go to the mountains to walk in the snow."

After walking around with brother and sister Jodick and Joanna, they basically talked incessantly. He could just listen with his ears. But he felt very relaxed. Compared to ordinary arcane mages, people from the Bobcat family were more relaxed.

Easy to get close to.

At noon, stay in Shanmao Town for lunch.

Bernoulli had already left early. When Duke was visiting before, he saw the Cockroach airship from Bernoulli's Master Tower taking off and flying to the west, probably to the Cuihai Valley.

The urban construction plan of Cuihai Valley has been passed, but there is no movement for the time being. The existence of the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon has greatly restricted the development of Cuihai Valley.

Perhaps all parties are playing a game, and after the game is over, they will gather firepower to hunt down the Black Jade Horseshoe Crab Dragon.

After lunch, Duke said goodbye and left Bobcat Town, continuing to visit some familiar arcane mages until late in the evening, when he went to the Keyston Wizard Tower.

"Happy New Year, may your spirit be with you forever."

"Happy New Year, may your spirit be with you forever."

I didn’t see Christian Raging Tao. After all, the chief executive of Shenjiao City’s Union Tower had too many people coming to visit him.

Duke only came to see Kilia.

We had dinner with Kiliya's parents. After dinner, we took Platycodon and the chickens with us and took a walk in the castle that looked like a mountain castle.

"Did your dinner taste good?"

"Well, it's very delicious, especially the dessert after the meal, like the puffs, it's very delicious." Duke replied.

The street lights were bright, shining on Kiriya's slightly baby-fat face, making her smile even brighter: "It's the croissant mochi made by my mother. She likes to study desserts the most. I also like to eat this croissant mochi very much."

"If you like, Platycodon is missing a chick, so I'll bring some mochi over there."

"That's great. If the chicken is happy, so am I!"

"Would you be happy if I didn't bring mochi?"

"Why not? I like mochi, but I also like platycodon. I'll be happy if you bring any one."

"What if I don't bring both of them?"

"Who knows? We'll tell you when you don't have it with you."

"You are such a slippery man!"

Patrolling knights often pass by on the streets of the castle, but there are secretly phantom knights following Kiria and Duke, and no one comes to disturb them.

Not far away, a chicken is carrying platycodon on its back and circling around a street lamp.

"Chicken, is your master pursuing Kiriya?" the caterpillar-like Platycodon asked.

The little chicken's mouth tilted: "No way, it's Kylia who is pursuing Duke, and Duke is not my master, he is my little brother!"

"Do you think Kylia will agree to be together?"

"Absolutely. My little brother is so charming. I can't believe it!"

"Will they live happily together like the prince and princess in fairy tales?" Platycodon seems to be a little involved.

The little chicken said flatly: "That's not true. Duke will not stop for a flower or grass. He said that he would go to the Holy City of Offa and venture deep into the wild forest. When my grandma is rescued, I will do the same.

Go on an adventure with Duke. Without my protection, he will be easily trafficked."

Kikyo arched her head: "You are so annoying!"

"Why are you scolding me? It's inexplicable!" Xiaoji scolded back without any sign of weakness, "Be careful, I will throw you out of the air and kill you little white insect!"

"You big green head!"

"Little white bug!"

"Big green head!"

While the chicks and Platycodon were noisy, Duke also ended his walk with Kilia. It was getting late and it was time to go back.

Kilia's parents personally delivered it to the door.

He warned: "Come to my house as a guest when you have time. Kiliya doesn't have many friends. My uncle and aunt are very happy that you can come."

"Okay, I will come often. You can go back." Duke waved his hand and got into the shuttle.

The shuttle started and drove around the corner. In the rearview mirror, she could see Kiriya and her parents watching him leave at the door.

"Sir, Ms. Kilia's parents are very good people." Mulali, who followed Duke wherever he went like a little tail, said happily.

Kylia’s parents, one is a great knight and the other is a spiritual apprentice.

Originally, he did not receive much attention in the family. After all, there were too many descendants of Kirsten. However, because of the birth of Kiria, he was put in the family's spotlight. Now he has taken over many of the family's businesses, and his status has been greatly improved.<

/p>

Even a large noble like the Nutao family cannot guarantee that every generation of their descendants will be able to train arcane mages.

Especially an arcane mage with outstanding talent like Kiriya.

That's why when the eighteen-year-old Kylia was promoted to Arcane Mage, she was given the title of Heaven's Daughter with the support of her family.

No matter whether you choose to marry abroad or inherit the family business in the future, you can ensure that the family's honor and favor will last forever.

"In a big family, you can't judge good or bad from the surface." Hearing the assistant's praise, Duke said something meaningful.

Finished visiting elders or seniors.

Next, it's someone else's turn to visit Duke.

"Sir, I wish you eternal spiritual blessings and prosperity." James cupped his hands and smiled, and he brought his wife and children with him.

Duke smiled and chatted with the James family for a while, and then asked Mulali to continue entertaining James' wife and daughter, while he chatted with James alone.

"The Lingchi Farm will be relocated as soon as possible to the vicinity of Suktala Master Tower. You can choose the location yourself. I will have someone tell the farm manager later."

He no longer works at Master Penrose Tower, and the Lingchi Farm located near Master Penrose Tower is no longer convenient.

James hesitated and said: "Sir, moving the farm may affect this year's snow-blowing pillar cultivation."

"It doesn't matter. Just keep the seeds of Chuixuezhu over there and cultivate them again on the new farm. I have asked Broken Sword to search for Chuuxuezhu's seeds in a large area in the No. 3 mutant forest. You can try more hybridization later and slowly find suitable new ones.

Variety."

"Yes."

"Looking back, the team of Lingzhi will still need to expand. You can just recruit people without considering the cost."

"Understood."

Now that Duke has become Suktara's official successor, all the properties are gradually being handed over to Duke, including this mage tower.

Therefore, Duke is also preparing to integrate his industries into Suktala Master Tower one after another.

A mage tower and its surrounding castles are basically a self-sufficient small world. Unfortunately, Suktala Mage Tower does not have a small spiritual spring. It needs to bring spiritual spring water pipes from Shenjiao City to deliver spiritual energy to the mage tower.<

/p>

This is a high fee.

……

After the Chinese New Year, everything returned to its normal state. The cold winter did not change anything. Duke continued to do research with Suktala every day.

Research and teach at the same time.

The cultivation in the field of alchemy is getting deeper and deeper.

And during this period, Suktala took over two more jobs of designing and casting arcane weapons from other cities at low prices, and started working with Duke.

Making money is secondary, helping Duke improve is the purpose.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

The complete casting process of three arcane weapons in a row expanded Xiaoyi's database with too much content, and also made the progress of the research and development of the Arcane Weapon Hand rapid.

On a morning in early spring in March.

Xiaoyi brought good news: "Congratulations to the master, the research and development of the Arcane Hand spell model has been completed, and the master can start casting the Arcane Hand."

"Has the design of the Arcane Weapon Hand finally been completed?" Duke was overjoyed.

This arcane weapon designed by him and Xiao Yi has undergone many improvements. During this period, Xiao Yi summarized some difficulties, and then Duke asked Suktala to help Xiao Yi quickly solve the difficulties, and finally successfully developed it today.

.

Through the exchange of ideas, countless information flows in an instant.

Duke already knew the spell model of the Arcane Hand, and he had memorized the entire casting process provided by Xiaoyi.

If you don’t understand anything, Xiaoyi will explain it in detail.

In this way, Duke has gained a deep understanding of the Arcane Weapon Hand and can officially start refining materials and casting.

"Xiaoyi."

"Master, Xiaoyi is here."

"I have a hunch that this time the Arcane Hand is successfully cast, I am afraid that my study in the field of alchemy will be completely solid." Duke closed his eyes and lay on the sofa chair, "And, the most important thing is, this piece

The arcane weapon will bring me the last trace of spiritual arcana knowledge that is missing in spiritual core evolution."

In the spiritual sea.

Xiaoyi's work schedule clearly shows his current cultivation progress.

"Process 1, exclusive meditation method, idle consumption consumes 25% of power. Currently, the spiritual sea level is level 1, arcane scholar, and the training progress is estimated to be 95%. The time budget cannot be quantified. Important reminder: The evolution speed of spiritual core has tended to be slow recently, and you may fall into

A certain level requires an opportunity to crack."

Opportunity.

Duke has a feeling in his mind that the hand of the arcane weapon is an opportunity for a breakthrough in the evolution of the spiritual core. As for whether it is true, he needs to try it first.

However, before casting the arcane weapon.

Duke imprinted the spell model into the steady-state ring positioner, and after the teacher got off work from the Union Tower, he presented the spell model to Suktara.

"Teacher, I recently tried to design an arcane weapon, the 'Arcane Weapon Hand' designed for myself. Please help me check it out."

This is the moment when he shows his learning to Suktara.

Although Suktara was already accustomed to Duke's talent, when she saw the twists and turns, spirals, and strangely beautiful spell models in the steady-state annular instrument, she was still so surprised that she briefly lost consciousness and her heart beat rapidly.

.

"This... was designed by you yourself?"

"Yes, teacher."

"Huh." Suktara calmed down, "Child, don't worry, let the teacher take a closer look at your arcane hand."

Taking a deep breath, Suktara began to mobilize his spiritual energy and sense the entire spell model of the Arcane Hand.

As a third-level arcane mage and alchemist, she has designed and cast countless arcane weapons in her life. As for the spell models of arcane weapons, it can be said that there are not many arcane mages in the entire Shenjiao City who understand the spell models of arcane weapons better than she does.

.

As soon as she started to check, her brows were raised high, and she couldn't stop being surprised.

The magic model of this arcane weapon is very complete, and there is no redundant or redundant structure. It is simple, clear and coordinated, as if it is a work that an alchemist has polished for several years.

For a full quarter of an hour, Suktara didn't say a word and devoted himself wholeheartedly to exploring the spell model.

When I encounter some strange structures, I still ponder them in my mind.

When you figure out why, you will sigh in surprise, and then continue to check the next structure until it takes an hour to check all the structures.

"Teacher." Duke, who was bored at the side, put down his coffee cup and walked over, "Have you finished checking? Are there any deficiencies?"

"There are no shortcomings, no, no, there are no shortcomings. Even if the teacher designs it, it can't be better than your design!" Suktala had a treasured smile on her face, "Duke,

Good boy, the teacher is so lucky to have chosen you as his successor."

She held Duke's hand and her smile was so kind that it almost overflowed: "Your talent in the field of alchemy is fully demonstrated in this work!"

She turned to the steady-state ring position meter and praised: "There is nothing that needs to be modified. Go ahead and cast it. The teacher is waiting to see your finished product."
