Chapter 21
The receptionist blinked and looked at the cat in Hughes' arms in surprise. The gray cat raised its head with extraordinary momentum, looking arrogant and inexplicably old-fashioned.
The receptionist couldn't help but smile and said, "You have such a cute cat with you."
Xius nodded, and also thought that his child was cute. He briefly introduced himself.
The receptionist was surprised at his identity. It was very rare to see people coming back from the abyss, and Zeus was of a relatively low level. Logically, it should be difficult for him to survive from the abyss monsters.
When the front desk looked at the information, they discovered that it was Priest Xilin who was the guarantor.
Priest Xilin is very famous in the Imperial City, and many people know him, including the front desk. Since he is the one guaranteed by Priest Xilin, there will definitely be no problem.
The front desk completed the registration quickly and gave Zeus a gift pack for the novice magician, which included a staff, a "Beginner's Guide to Magicians", a "Theory of Advanced Magic Research", two magic stones and a set of robes exclusive to the magicians of the Oss Empire.
Because of his lower level, his robe is the most basic gray.
This set of things together is almost equivalent to 5,000 to 6,000 yuan worth of materials on Earth. This is the investment of the Os Empire in magicians. For the sake of talent, no effort is spared.
After receiving the supplies, there will be special people to provide guidance and help you understand the magic world of the Os Empire.
Zeus took a magic number card and sat in the hall waiting. When his number was called, someone would be responsible for giving him one-on-one guidance and instruction.
The gray cat looked around and felt that these people's level was not as high as his. It was all his fault that he had reported a low level before, otherwise he could have shown more to his father.
There were many people walking around in the hall, because next door was the mission receiving area. Missions would be assigned here every day, whether from the empire or the people. Then magicians would look at the mission content and rewards and choose to accept or not.
The mission levels range from S to F, from big ones like solving a disaster that would destroy a country to small ones like just helping someone find their kitten.
The scroll of the task was hung too high and too far away, so Zeus couldn't see the specific content clearly, but he could clearly see that low-level tasks were in short supply, while high-level tasks were almost ignored.
It's not that they don't want to, but that they don't have the ability. Except for lunatics and perverts, no one likes to risk their lives to challenge difficult tasks.
There was some noise in the hall, and the magicians seemed to be talking about the fall of the Kingdom of Light yesterday.
But the gray cat looked around and thought to himself, you guys are smart and don't have the guts to say our names casually. Why don't we let our father hear our names in the streets and alleys? Even if my father is a Buddhist, he will find something wrong.
While they were waiting, there seemed to be a dispute and the noble magician almost fought with the civilian magician. Fortunately, this was the Magicians' Association, where there were many experts, so no real fight broke out and the two were forced to stop.
The one who came to mediate was a young man with blond hair and black eyes. He had a slender figure, noble temperament, handsome appearance, long pointed ears, and exquisite gold ornaments on his earlobes, with dazzling pendants hanging from them.
It was obvious at first glance that He was not a human but an angel. However, He was not an angel from the Kingdom of Light. Instead, He came from the Kingdom of Darkness, because the emblem of the Kingdom of Darkness was on the back of the robe He wore.
It's not that angels are not allowed to enter human countries. After all, not all kingdoms of God are hostile or threatening to humans. For example, the Dark Kingdom is neutral to humans. Although their pursuit of eternal night is bound to endanger most living things on the continent, it hasn't been realized yet.
It seems that he came because the Kingdom of Light was targeting the Os Empire. The enemy of the mortal enemy is a friend, and they have very sufficient reasons to help the Os Empire, although it is of little use because there is only one person who comes and looks like an ordinary angel.
The magicians present were afraid of the foreign angel guest, so they naturally gave him face. Secondly, even though the angels of the Kingdom of Light were killed like cabbages yesterday, angels are born above level 50, and have innate talent points above 50, which ordinary humans cannot compare to.
However, this angel was quite worldly and did not put on an arrogant and cold poker face, and was actually able to be friendly and cordial with lower-status humans.
When others see His smile, they feel as if they are basking in a spring breeze, and their favorability toward Him increases visibly.
"Everyone stay calm and don't quarrel, haha."
He smiles left and right. His beautiful face makes people let down their guard. His gentle tone makes people happy. His voice has a pleasant magnetism. When some young magicians see him, they can't help but feel amorous. They stare at him and think that this is what an angel should look like.
Having said that, angels have no gender, or rather, most of the races here have no gender, and their reproduction methods are also strange. The civilization of two sexes is even considered to be an animalistic civilization and an inferior civilization. It is a division of labor that a powerless and incompetent civilization has to evolve.
If angels have gender, it is divinity. Divinity is not only an essential quality, but also a gender, and it also means extremely powerful strength.
Zeus blinked, but didn't have any thoughts. He didn't have much opinion about angels, but he felt that if this was a disguise, it would be a bit scary. He was not afraid of the enemy being arrogant, confident and conceited, but he was afraid of the enemy lowering himself to understand him.
When he was thinking this, perhaps by chance, the angel suddenly looked at him and smiled brilliantly.
Xius was dumbfounded and had almost no reaction, but the cat on his body reacted greatly, glaring at him fiercely with its cat eyes.
The angel's smile froze immediately, as if he was frightened.
At this moment, Hughes was confused.
"Hello, nice to see you again."
A female voice sounded beside me.
Xius turned around and was stunned.
The other party was the magician Xili, whom she had met before at the Brave Memorial Hall.
Xili was still wearing a magician's robe and professional makeup. She smiled and said, "What a magical coincidence. I didn't expect you to come here. It seemed like you just learned about magic when we met the day before yesterday."
Hughes nodded: "Yes."
Most magicians are trained from a young age. It is rare for them to learn magic after they are in their twenties or thirties. Even if there are some, their attainments will not be very high.
Of course, a love of learning is a good thing at any age.
Xi Li said: "Come on, I'll show you around."
"good."
Xius stood up and followed Xili.
He didn't notice that the gray cat in his arms had been staring at the angel. Its dark green eyes even glowed with a magical light, which made the disguised Hades a little doubtful of his life.
But Hades was even more curious.
Who exactly is that person? Why does he have the aura of his old enemy?
-
On the other side, in a dark alley, there was a confrontation.
Beelzebub stood in the shadows, his arrival not alerting any monitoring systems.
"Elliot, it's rare for you to get together."
Eliorg on the other side seemed to hear something very disgusting, and immediately retorted: "What are you thinking, how can I get together with them?"
Beelzebub stared at Him, "I can see that."
Eliorg: "You can't tell."
Beelzebub's eyes dimmed, "Tell me, what are you planning?"
Eliog was silent, his surging magic power revealing his mood.
Beelzebub said coldly, "You have been infected by the desire to rule over humans. Are you gathering together and planning to rule over humans and dominate the continent with the Os Empire as your base?"
Eliog was silent for a moment, then said, "So what?"
Beelzebub's face darkened, "Have you forgotten what you are?"
Eliorg retorted: "You have forgotten who you are, have you eaten an entire race? Looking at the good things you have done, have you ever thought about your father? What would he think if he knew?"
Beelzebub's calm expression suddenly changed, his magic power almost exploded, and he said in a very cold tone: "What do you know? I can't communicate with you at all."
After saying this, black fog rolled up and He disappeared.
Eliog thought to himself, Beelzebub is worthy of being a conspiracy theorist, he always thinks of everything in the most complicated and darkest way.
The goal is to make Him go away. It would be best if He goes away, and the farther He goes, the better.
-
The other party.
In the corridor of the Magic Association, the two chatted as they walked.
Xili said, "The textbooks you read all say that the essence of magic is imagination."
Hughes nodded, "Yes."
Xili smiled and said, "That's not wrong, but it's not complete."
Xiu immediately perked up, "Isn't it?"
Xili stated her hypothesis and said slowly: "I think that before imagination, there is worldview. Worldview is the cornerstone of imagination. All imagination is based on personal worldview, at least that's what I think. Whether a magician's worldview is broad and rich affects whether his imagination is broad and rich, and ultimately affects his magical attainments."
This was a statement that Hughes had never heard of.
Xili continued, "The angels' magic is powerful because they have divine knowledge and know the world more clearly. We humans are limited to the earth and our inherent cognitive boundaries. Our worldview is relatively narrow, which is why we lag behind the species created by God."
Xius seemed to understand, "It seems so."
Xili continued, "This is just a hypothesis of mine, and also my magic research topic. It has not been verified yet. You just listen to it. You still have to learn according to what the textbook says."
Xius nodded, but kept it in mind and some ideas came to his mind.
Then Xili pushed open a door.
Dozens of people have already come in, and they are all young noble magicians. Just by looking at their clothes and their demeanor, you can tell that half of them are children under ten years old.
When the commoner Xiusi walked into it, he seemed somewhat out of place. Thousands of years had passed, and even the heaven and earth had changed countless times, but some things could still exist unchanged since ancient times, such as class.
This session was to test magical attributes. They gathered together, and most of them had already been tested, but they stayed here to socialize, as everyone wanted to curry favor with the genius with high talent and strong attributes.
The gray cat glanced at these people and was so bored that he was about to yawn.
"Don't mind them. I was once a civilian too."
Xi Li motioned him to a testing window.
On the table by the window there is a large crystal ball with a radius of more than ten centimeters.
“Just keep your hands on the ball.”
Xili gestured and placed her hands on the crystal ball. Then three colors of magic appeared in the ball at the same time. One was fire, one was water, and one was wood. And they were very pure colors, indicating that her magical talent was also extremely high. She was definitely at the level of a top genius, and in fact, she was.
The other magicians all looked at her with admiration. As expected of Ms. Xili, she is so strong!
"good."
Zeus walked to the table and his eyes fell on the crystal ball. He didn't notice anything, but the gray cat came closer, looking at the round cat face reflected in the crystal ball with his big eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
Others looked at Zeus and thought that he must be a commoner with no talent. How could he learn magic when he awakened his magical talent so late? Wait, why did he bring a cat with him?
And Hughes put the cat aside and placed his hands on the crystal ball.
At first, the crystal ball didn't move.
Everyone shook their heads.
But then, the crystal ball vibrated, and suddenly released an extremely dazzling light, and along with the strong light, there was also an extremely terrifying magic power.
Everyone present was frightened and turned pale. What was going on?
At the same time, the black angel in the association hall was shocked, turned his head in disbelief, and looked surprised.
What exactly is this magic power? !
At the same time, Beelzebub on the city wall turned around and immediately fixed his eyes on the building of the Magic Association.
He didn't know what he understood, and suddenly cursed: "Elliog, you really concealed it!"
Eliorg turned around and cursed: "Impos, what are you doing!"
At this moment, the crystal ball cracked.
