Chapter 812 (1/2)
Wizard consultant?
Get me a wizard consultant?
Stunned for a while, the black haired wizard returned slightly and frowned slightly: ”I guess this is just a cover for fooling the heavenly palace and the Holy Cross Church?”
”Of course not. The wizard tower is indeed recommending you a competent wizard consultant according to the specifications of the Duke and even the royal family.”
Charlotte looked up and seemed very angry at the rather disapproval attitude of the black haired Wizard: ”this is also in line with the imperial law; to be exact, when each Duke takes office, the wizard tower will send out invitations to recommend suitable candidates to each family.”
”Some of the welts, like El Mans, have a tradition of selecting wizards specializing in history and astrology as tutors and even the right arm of the Duke in almost all dynasties; some, such as the Fred family of lottel, prefer candidates recommended by the church.”
”In Byrne, because the Earls are relatively rich, they also have their own preferences; however, only the royal family and the Duke can be directly recommended by the wizard tower.” the steward of red blood Castle said, ”so if there is no Centaur war, this should be your first decision after taking office.”
So it is
Loren took a deep breath and turned his eyes to the countess: ”so eboden plans to take this opportunity to establish a communication channel between the two sides through the new wizard consultant?”
”More than that, the wizard tower wants to expand their influence in Byrne.” Charlotte shook her head gently and her eyes twinkled. ”So they prepared a huge plan.”
”In addition to the wizard himself, there are 13500 books of all kinds, which basically cover all the departments of the wizard. In a short time, a library and a small wizard college can be established first.”
”With the help of the trade channel of the United Chamber of Commerce, they will also provide various necessary tools, samples, drawings and raw materials for the college in batches - these are expensive, only a quarter higher than the cost price.”
”Finally, the wizard tower will help us establish a small wizard college and a complete library within three years, set up at least six alchemy associations in Bain and preside over 15 new technology research and development.” Charlotte said one after another, saying that Loren was stunned:
”According to the agreement between the two sides, this is only the first phase; we'll see the completion and expenditure in three years; if conditions permit, I'm going to establish several large-scale alchemy workshops in red blood castle; especially now we have silver helmet mountain dwarves, whose secret silver technology is a good trading capital...”
”Wait --!!!”
The shocked black haired wizard quickly reached out to stop her.
Charlotte, who was interrupted, flashed a trace of anger from the corners of her eyes and turned her head impatiently: ”what's the matter?”
”Nothing!” Lauren stared and shook his head. ”What you just said is what the wizard tower promised?!”
”I signed it half a month ago. I need to review the agreement for you?”
”No! I just want to know what to pay for this Bain?”
”I just said that the price higher than one quarter of the cost... It could have been one fifth, but because a Duke annoyed the church, now we can't ask them.”
With a slight pout, the countess seemed unable to hide her dissatisfaction: ”in addition, it is to provide protection and preferential treatment to wizards in Byrne... Also, because a Duke himself is a wizard, this can not be used as a bargaining chip.”
”They promised?!”
Loren still looked unbelievable.
”Of course, didn't I just say it once?” Charlotte snorted coldly again: ”since they want to use Byrne's power to expand the influence of the wizard tower, how can they do without paying some price?”
Nevertheless, the countess's expression showed a little complacency.
Charlotte was even more proud when she saw a Duke who was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth.
Loren tried to get rid of the shocking news, took half a minute to calm down and turned his attention to another thing: ”so who is the wizard consultant recommended by the wizard tower... Isaac?”
”How possible.”
”... also.” the black haired wizard pulled the corners of his mouth. If it was Isaac, it wouldn't be so troublesome at all.
”But he is also one of the entourage, and the desalion side branch named Lina desalion... I don't know how she slipped out of the imperial capital.” the countess raised her nose and looked very disapproving:
”In order to let Isaac leave the imperial capital, we negotiated with the imperial wizard College for half a month until the wizard tower opened its mouth... It is said that many of the people who obstructed it were the power of crown prince Connor.”
The dark haired wizard nodded slightly, indicating that it was not surprising.
Anyone who really understands the value of Isaac can't let him go easily; The void sword and the Holy Blood potion for the evil empire can only be regarded as the ”by-products” of his research, and the future is unlimited.
Fortunately, because eboden's confidentiality work is quite in place, few people know this at present; Even insiders can't imagine what Isaac got from the Dragon King tower in Nidhogg.
But Lina de sallion... When she thought of a girl who wore glasses, gambled and had the same brain as Isaac, Loren felt a big head.
How did she leave the imperial capital? It shouldn't be... Why did she come to Byrne together?
”So it's not Isaac, so who is it?”
In the face of the black haired wizard's question, Charlotte and Charles did not answer directly, but looked at each other, as if they were making eye contact.
”Why... This question is difficult to answer?” Lauren frowned slightly, and looked at their obviously strange faces. ”Or is there something difficult to say?”
The red blood Castle housekeeper coughed and turned around.
”Please be prepared before we tell you,” Charles whispered. ”I was going to tell you when you came back, but... The wizard tower and the count agreed to surprise you.”
”Surprise, what surprise?”
”The surprise is... Your Excellency, the wizard consultant, is the person you used to know.” they looked at Charlotte again, and they smiled knowingly, as if they were looking at their own gift to be opened:
”In order to keep you excited, I can only remind you... Your Excellency the wizard has visited the Principality of lottel and stayed for a long time.”
”Lottel... Vimpal college?” Loren laughed in amazement and blinked: ”why, is master freswalker coming, not so!”
The countess and the housekeeper did not speak, but turned their eyes behind him.
Suddenly, a familiar cold touch came to my heart, making the black haired wizard breathe.
This familiar and strange feeling
”Sorry.”
A cold to indifferent voice came, and a simple word seemed to be a waste.
The black haired wizard with numb scalp trembled and turned his head behind him bit by bit.
