Chapter 10: 011 Wizards Association (2)
Chapter 10 011 Magician Association (2)
Registration in the Magic Association is of course free, and after registration, there is a monthly allowance according to the level, but you must pay for equipment and magic books in the association. These were all things Green had heard from Dr. Wilkins, and although they were common sense, they were useful to Green.
However, Green's savings are not much, and the salary of the apprentice housekeeper is very meager, so he came to Vincent to borrow twenty gold pounds, ready to register and buy a staff that can increase the speed of casting spells.
The office of the Society of Magicians is right next to the City Hall. It is a round tower building made of white marble with more than 20 floors.
It was already afternoon when Green came to the Magicians Association by carriage. The hall on the first floor was deserted. The two young girls in charge of reception were chatting. Seeing Green came in, he was a little surprised. Originally, the number of magicians was small. After finishing the work, few people came over in the afternoon, and the two did not dare to neglect, they immediately greeted them, bowed and asked.
Green directly stated his intention and took out a recommendation letter written by Dr. Wilkins.
Dr. Wilkins is a veteran of the Langton City Magicians Association. He has a wide network of contacts and has a lot of face. With this letter of recommendation, Green can save a lot of trouble.
Sure enough, when the two receptionists saw the signature of the recommendation letter, they immediately became a little more respectful. They invited Green inside, filled out a lot of forms, sent it upstairs, and stamped a seal. After an hour, it was finally replaced by A small blue notebook was handed over to Green.
Then Green spent thirteen gold pounds to buy a magic wand in the association.
This staff is made of laurel wood, more than half a meter long and weighs two pounds and seven taels. The whole body is depicted with complex runes, which can slightly increase the speed of casting spells, and can store a defensive magic below the third ring.
For Green, the performance of this magic circle is not satisfactory. He can't even use any defensive magic, so the function of storing defensive magic is useless. The reason why he bought this staff is because it is cheap. The second is to accelerate spellcasting, and the first point is still the main one. The price of thirteen gold pounds is almost the cheapest magic wand in the entire Magic Association.
Finally, it is also the combat effectiveness test that Green has long been looking forward to.
After becoming a registered magician, you can conduct a combat test on a voluntary basis.
After Green passed through, he became a junior necromancer apprentice and learned two spells in total, one [Spirituality] and one [Bone Spurs]. If you can learn and skillfully use the four one-ring magics according to the routine, you can be promoted to the intermediate magic apprentice. Of course Green couldn't be promoted to an intermediate apprentice, but because of the cemetery, he was unusual. Visually, the skeleton soldiers generated in the cemetery are obviously much more elite than the skeleton soldiers summoned by ordinary [Spirituality], but I don't know how much combat effectiveness they actually have, so Green is also looking forward to the combat effectiveness test.
The fifth floor of the Magician Association, the entire fifth floor is a test site, which uses magic to simulate various battle scenes that are triggered immediately.
Green followed the receptionist, listened to her detailed introduction, understood it clearly, and signed a liability waiver agreement, and finally stepped into the entrance of the testing venue.
"Combat Strength Test, Act 1, Scene 3, Wild Forest Terrain; Combat Level, Junior Apprentice..."
As Green stepped into the entrance of the test site, a voice with no fluctuation in tone came from his ear, and then the light and shadow in front of him shook, the surrounding light was dim, there was a whirring wind, and he felt a chill in the face. Taking another two steps forward, as the trees appeared, Green was already in a dense forest on a winter night.
"The super-large magic circle can actually simulate such a huge and real holographic scene. Magic really has infinite possibilities. Even if the earth's technology is developed before crossing, it will not be able to create a similar effect in the 21st century." Green admired in his heart, and at the same time Be vigilant, clenched the staff in his hand, and without hesitation came a spiritism first, summoning a skeleton soldier from the cemetery to block in front.
For professions like Necromancer, no matter what the situation is, it is a normal operation to call the younger brother to the front first.
With a tall skeleton soldier standing in front of him, Green felt a little at ease. Looking further afield, it was pitch-dark, with vaguely undulating mountains and gloomy wind blowing in his ears. Even if he knew that it was simulated by the test site, I couldn't help but feel a gloomy feeling from the bottom of my heart.
The forest in the scene is very dense, because it is night, and the field of vision is very small. When you look up, it is completely dark, and only the entrance behind you is lit with an indicator light.
Green raised his staff, and immediately emitted a white beam of light from the gems embedded at the top of the staff, like a flashlight, illuminating the area in front of him, forming a fan-shaped visible area.
The magic wand has additional light spell, which is the standard configuration of every magic circle.
Green raised his wand and walked forward, and the skeleton soldiers in front were on guard with swords and shields.
Walking forward for more than ten meters, the surrounding trees were a little sparse, and Green could faintly hear the sound of "rustling" in the front left, as if something was walking and scratching the turf.
He immediately stood and looked in that direction, and at the same time raised his staff in front of him, ready to cast a spell and shoot stone thorns.
However, after a few seconds, there was no expected attack except for the whirring of the wind.
Green's only combat experience was playing games like 'Jedi Survival' and 'Honor of Kings' before crossing. Even though he was prepared, when he really faced it at this time, it still made his heart skip a beat, he was nervous, and he held his breath. . But after all, this state can't last long. After about half a minute, he couldn't hold his breath, and when he was a little relieved, a black shadow suddenly rushed over from the other side.
"It's not good, it's the east and the west!"
Green let out a secret cry, disregarding the magician's dignity, and a lazy donkey rolled on the spot to avoid the black shadow's attack, and flicked his staff to release bone spurs. At the next moment, a series of more than one meter long The spikes of rock quickly pierced out of the ground where he was just now.
The black shadow was hit by the spikes and let out a dull low roar. Immediately, the speed slowed down, revealing its true form. It was actually a monster with green skin and fangs and claws.
Green had never seen this kind of monster before. It only looked like a troll in World of Warcraft, but Green knew that it was definitely not a troll, but a simulation made by the Magic Association with enough puppets.
At the same time, there was a sound of gold and iron in the front left, but it was Green's skeleton soldiers and another green-skinned monster broke out in hand-to-hand combat. The skeleton soldiers are very agile and have strong fighting instincts. When they find an enemy rushing towards them, they block them with a round shield first, and cut them off with a sword. They even cut off the arm that the green-skin monster grabbed at the root. Immediately following up, with a bang, he kicked the enemy away, chasing after and aiming another sword at Greenskin's neck.
"So strong!"
Green was taken aback by the strength of the skeleton soldier. The combat effectiveness of this skeleton soldier far exceeded his expectations, almost equivalent to the level of a junior apprentice knight.
Green's heart was settled. Originally, he was worried that the skeleton soldiers in the cemetery were silver-like pewter heads. Now it seems that he is worrying for nothing. The skeleton soldiers should not be too strong. Seeing this form, he did not rush to summon the second skeleton soldier, it was just a test.
Green stepped aside and ordered the skeleton soldiers to attack another green-skinned monster.
The skeleton soldier raised his shield and charged forward, galloping into the green monster like a galloping horse, making a muffled 'bang' sound again, the dagger stabbed out under the round shield like a poisonous tongue, and immediately pierced the green monster from the lower abdomen. . Immediately with a bang, a cloud of white smoke exploded, and the killed green-skinned monster turned directly into a beast-shaped puppet composed of wood and iron.
The battle was over, less than a minute before and after.
Green is quite satisfied with the result, the skeleton soldiers produced by the cemetery are very powerful.
The Mage Association's combat effectiveness test is not a game. Generally, junior trainees or junior apprentices can reach the standard for five minutes under the siege of two puppets. If they can persist for ten minutes, they are excellent. Like Green, they can directly fight back. , which has only appeared twice in the past decade or so.
After the battle, the surrounding scene disappeared, revealing a circular field with a diameter of more than 20 meters.
The receptionist who accompanied Green stood dumbfounded at the entrance where Green came in, and found that Green was looking at her, and then she came back to her senses, and walked over quickly, with a more respectful attitude.
