Chapter 1,643 Helper
Latest website: Although they are said to be apprentices, in fact, Halumi and Kaya, two girls in their thirties, still hang two silver threads shamelessly, maintaining the rank of second-level magic apprentices. Marquis Balan had already changed into a golden thread and became an official magician.
The two eldest girls who were raised by him and are still unable to marry are probably to avoid the requirements of the Magician Association, which requires every magician to bring at least two official magicians in his life.
Although this stipulation is clearly stipulated in the convention of the Magician Association, there is no mandatory punishment method to force the magicians to do it. The association only uses the method of subsidizing magicians to reduce or even eliminate those who do not obey.
Simply put, if you can't threaten, you can only induce. For some magicians who are living in poverty, the association's subsidy is the key to their ability to successfully carry out magic research.
As we all know, studying magic is expensive. They have reached the high position of a magician. As long as they have hands and feet, it is impossible for them to starve to death. But it's not certain whether there are extra funds to support magic research.
Of course, some capable people can ignore the association's 'little' subsidy. Lin, who had been on the blacklist of the Magicians Association for a long time, naturally ignored the association's innocuous rules and allowed the two big girls to do what they wanted to do.
As for whether they had other reasons to stay, Lin didn't think too much about it. Some things are just good to get used to, and you don’t have to get to the bottom of everything.
Although Marquis Balan is in her own home. But when she was going to meet a man who was not a family member, she still covered herself up tightly. Wearing a black robe and a veil, Lin was thinking that if it weren't for the cooling magic circle inside the clothes, this girl wouldn't be sweating.
These three people would appear, so naturally Lin sent someone to call them.
Even though Marquis Balan was not her apprentice, the little guy didn't mean to force someone to say that since he was not her teacher, he had no right to order her. After all, his closest friend is this old guy's apprentice, and this is his home.
The three apprentices came here, and of course they couldn't be as inappropriately dressed as Fen. But they also wear daily clothes at home and take care of themselves neatly and cleanly.
As soon as he saw Lin Hefen present, he immediately knelt down and saluted. In terms of etiquette, the three of them were meticulous, and no one could find fault with them.
The fact that the three older girls behaved so strictly was to some extent influenced by the aristocrat Marquise Balan. Although the latter doesn't like to be close to people, the aristocratic etiquette seems to be in his bones, and he disguises himself all the time.
And they have long since passed that impetuous age like children. Although they no longer have the youthful agility of girls, entering the age of tiger and wolf also means that they have clearer expectations for their future. In terms of external performance, he is much calmer.
The Year of the Tiger and the Wolf is actually not a derogatory term. But men and women at this age have clearer goals in doing things than those who have just grown up, and their behavior is still a little frivolous and impulsive. At least they know what they are doing and go through their brains before doing it.
Although he lacks the innocence of a child, it is a beautiful thing to watch the people around him grow in a good direction. No wonder nurturing games are so popular...
Not to mention the random thoughts in someone's mind, as the most outgoing person, Halumi naturally becomes the external window among the three. She asked: "Teacher, do you have any orders when you summoned us?"
Although the apprentice learned about someone's misbehavior these days... from other people's reports, he was still very concerned about it. At least, they will want to know when something will involve them, so that they know when to run away.
It’s very tiring to have a teacher who cheats his apprentices.
Before anyone came in, Lin had already put away the two strange objects on the small coffee table. It doesn't matter if the seeds of the World Tree are seen by outsiders, at most it will only reveal the wealth. But the stumps of the unspeakable thing were seen, and there were several lunatics in the family.
Now the three apprentices only saw the complex lines composed of light and shadow written on the whiteboard in front of their two teachers. This could be anything from a spell model, a molecular biology framework, or a blueprint for a device.
What kind of thing it was, they couldn't tell with just a few glances without some explanation, so they simply asked directly. Anyway, when it’s time to explain, your teachers will naturally explain it clearly, or at least to the extent that they think they should know.
However, Lin did not explain anything to the three older girls about what was in front of him. Instead, he gave another instruction: "Go get ready and put on all the combat equipment. I will take you to the magic tower later. I need your help with something."
Before the three older girls could ask questions, Fen questioned: "Are you sure you want to take them there?"
Lin shrugged and said: "Sooner or later they will move there. There is nothing wrong with going there first to know the way. Besides, we are going to activate the energy pools of two magic towers at the same time this time, so we still need helpers. Even if they are not able to help with the main job , and can also handle some chores.
"Otherwise, when we have to temporarily withdraw our hands, they can support us for a while. It's better than finding an unfamiliar person who has to explain for a long time to ask for help."
Fin accepted the argument. But she noticed another important point and asked: "We have to temporarily withdraw our hands? What do you mean? Will someone come to cause trouble?"
At the same time, the three older girls also followed Fen's words and cast questioning glances at someone.
Lin nodded and said, "I do worry about that."
"Who? Don't tell me that you are calling here now. Those guys in the sky don't care about helping to protect the magic tower. If so, your face is too worthless." Fen mocked.
As a former demon king who helped someone conquer the four elemental planes at close range, Fen was very aware of the big hole someone dug for the robot.
Although he did not sign the useless magic contract, all earth element elves were required to swear an oath before transformation. The weight of this oath will affect the robot on a deeper level.
It may be that the path to growth is cut off, or that when one chooses to rebel, the robot will eat its own way. Anyway, the price of breaking the oath will definitely make life difficult for these elemental elves whose lives are almost eternal.
"I saw Azad in the abyss," Lin said.
With a simple answer, Fen wrinkled her beautiful eyebrows again. She has always been confident and can keep her emotions calm. The frown is more of an expression and does not represent her emotions. But this time I was really worried.
The Demon Prince Azad is a representative figure of chaotic evil. Although Fen is not afraid of this guy, he will also find him troublesome in every sense of the word.
"What is he doing over there?" Fin asked.
Lin shook his head and said bluntly: "I don't know either. But seeing him appear, there is a good chance that nothing good will happen. That's why I have to prepare in advance."
Azad is busy fighting for the status of Prince of the Abyss. This news has not been made public and widely spread, so no one knows it. Otherwise he would definitely use this time more boldly instead of being as cautious as he is now.
Fen asked again: "If the matter is related to Azad, they can't be used, right? Even if they wear all the belongings on their bodies, they can't deal with Azad."
The three older girls looked slightly disappointed. But they also had to admit that they really weren't good enough to die when they met the Demon Prince.
"Of course we can't count on them." Lin said frankly: "I just hope that when we have to come forward, someone can temporarily help us maintain the process of bringing the energy pool online. And asking them to be fully armed will only make them vulnerable when encountering the enemy. Sometimes, you can hold on for a longer time until we come to rescue. Of course, nothing happens, and the best thing is to activate the energy pool smoothly."
Fen also agreed with someone's statement and said to the three older girls: "Well, you go and prepare. By the way, help me inform Stone that he will make the same preparations. I will take him with me then."
The former commander of the Guards of the Dark Legion, the stitched corpse made by Fen himself, is now endowed with a perfect body designed by original genes.
If someone dares to go beyond the former devil and order a little girl like the Marquise Balan to do something, it is because he can gain some face from the Marquise Balan by relying on his friendship with the old Mr. Kawei.
But Lin had no intention of communicating with the undead head who refused to listen to anyone. That one wouldn't move at all without Fen's nod. So it was up to Fen to decide whether to take him with him or not, and what to do with him. Someone is not going to do it for you.
As the former Demon King who was more authoritative than someone else in the family spoke, the three older girls naturally went down to prepare.
Marquis Balan also experienced the baptism of war in this war against the abyss invasion.
Besides, to become an official magician, it is impossible to not see blood on your hands. Although there were people sent by the Kawei family to protect him at that time, he was not a young bird that could not survive or see blood.
Therefore, the Marquise would not resist her teacher's request, and even vaguely expected it.
It can only be said that there is a violent factor hidden in people's hearts, but when it is released, the strong can hurt outsiders, and the weak can only turn back on themselves. So people will look for weaker people to release their violence, such as children...
However, the two people who are currently discussing the construction of an energy pool have long passed the stage of being full of vulgar taste. Fin asked about serious matters and said: "Since the two towers are going to be activated at the same time, which side do you plan to put me in charge of?"
Lin did not hesitate to conjure the seeds of the World Tree, took them in his hand, and handed them forward. Said: "The magic tower on the side of the lost land is left to you. Because the activation of the twin towers of the gate actually requires two towers to be activated at the same time.
"This reminds me that maybe during the activation process, I will encounter unknown mysterious forces again. Only you have enough knowledge reserves to solve such problems. If I come, I may be too close to the scientific side. Thinking will lead to bad things.”
"You mean, you plan to violently crack the magic tower on the other side of the abyss?" Fen asked.
"No. What I mean is that on the abyss side, since I plan to deal with those things, it is more appropriate for me to handle it from the beginning. Besides, if Azad dares to bring a bunch of demons to cause trouble, I will directly ask the Khans to solve the problem."
