Chapter 112: Buying Bones with a Million Gold Attracts a Thousand Miles of Horses (23)



Recruiting building front yard.

There were some conflicts between the old wizard Kao and the recruiters.

Rosen listened for a moment and understood the reason.

It turned out that the master of magic wanted to meet him directly, and although the recruiting officer did not refuse, he was confused and hinted that if he was given some money, he would report quickly.

The old wizard had a very hot temper. He became furious when he heard this. Without saying anything, he turned around and left.

This scared the recruiting officer, and he tried to persuade him to stay, but the man was extremely stubborn and insisted on leaving no matter what he said.

So the two sides got entangled in the yard.

There was a constant stream of noise coming from the yard.

The main targets of the quarrel were the old wizard himself and the recruiting officer.

"Let me go!"

"Master, let's talk it over." The recruiting officer was about to cry.

"Why, you won't let people go?"

"No, no, no, Master, I was wrong. I was wrong. Isn't it okay for me to apologize to you?"

The recruiting officer was almost on his knees.

Although he didn't know the magical powers of these three khal wizards, he could tell from their expressions and temperament that they were famous wizards. If they left the island because of them, his job as a recruiting officer would be over.

But the old wizard was determined to leave with a gloomy face, and even his two sons around him tried to persuade him, but it was of no use.

The old wizard's voice echoed throughout the compound.

"There is no humanity in the world of magic, only strict rules!"

"If we bring the bad habits of the world into the magic center, then this magic center won't have much of a future!"

"You are a recruiting officer. What's your ability to ask me for money? If you have the ability, go and ask the Creator for money."

"I thought the barons were different, but it turns out they are all the same as the khal's lords!"

"Let go! Or I will be rude to you!"

Rosen was amazed when he heard this: "This master is so old, but he still has such a hot temper. He is still strong and must be a man of real ability!"

People who have no real ability may still be able to shout a few times with youthful passion when they are young, but when they get older and lose their confidence, they immediately become listless.

As for what the old wizard said, Rosen also felt that it made a lot of sense.

Magic must be rigorous, and so should the mages who study it.

Rosen secretly decided that he must make a big fuss about this matter and take advantage of the situation to launch a nationwide discussion on the entire island to sort out the atmosphere and correct people's thoughts, especially the thoughts of the mages.

Not to mention other places, at least we must keep the magic center away from the bad habit of picking pockets.

Although it is said that there will be no fish in clear water, but if the water is not clear, a real dragon cannot survive!

Seeing that the magic master was about to leave, he hurried downstairs, strode forward and shouted, "Salute to you, Master!"

Seeing the lord arrive, the recruiting officers present hurriedly saluted, and the recruiting officer who did the bad thing turned pale.

The master of magic who was being held back snorted coldly and shook off his torn sleeves. Although he didn't respond, he didn't turn around and leave either.

Fortunately, his two sons were in good spirits and immediately returned the gift to Rosen.

Rosen walked up to the magic master and asked with a smile: "Master, I am Rosen, the lord of the island. May I know your name?"

"Goss." The magic master responded coldly.

Rosen searched the database for relevant data and was immediately surprised. He asked, "Master Goss, you are the magic consultant of Marquis Henry. How come you have time to visit my little island?"

Goss, a fourth-ring, 32-star flame mage, was born into a commoner family. He showed his talent at a young age and displayed amazing achievements in flame magic. He was known as the 'Ashe Maker'.

He was also one of Marquis Henry's most trusted magical advisers, but now he had run to his own territory. Did he fall out with the Marquis?

Master Goss glared at Rosen with his gleaming brown leopard eyes: "I originally wanted to visit the lord, but now I don't want to, so this matter has nothing to do with the baron."

After saying that, he waved to his two sons beside him and said, "Let's go!"

The sensitivity of the Ten Rings Mage told Rosen that the master was really going to leave and was not just pretending to raise his status.

Come to think of it, with his status and position, he would be treated well if he went to any earl in Weilan, or even to the Duke of Dawn. There was no need for him to come to his own small island.

Although he didn't know why he chose to come to his island, since he was here, he must try his best to fight for it.

In the blink of an eye, the other party had walked more than ten meters away and was about to board the carriage parked at the door.

What should I do? Rosen looked at the backs of the three mages, and his mind raced, and he immediately came up with a solution.

He walked up quickly and climbed onto the coachman's seat, saying with a smile, "Since the master has decided to leave, I can't force him to stay."

"But no matter what, I have disappointed you and wasted your precious time. How about I drive you to the port myself to express my apology?"

Master Goss was stunned for a moment. He had never seen a lord driving a carriage for commoners in his life.

Although the other party is only a baron, he is still the husband of Princess Chenxi, which he cannot afford.

Reject immediately.

"You don't have to do this. As the lord of the island, you must have a lot of things to do. I have decided to leave, and Baron, please don't waste your time on me."

The anger on his face, which looked stubborn at first glance, lessened a little, and his tone became softer than before.

Seeing that the strategy was effective, Lawson continued to work hard.

As long as I can retain talents, what does it matter if I get off the carriage? He insisted: "It's not a waste of time. I have to go to the port anyway. Besides, I'm an intermediate wizard, and it's an honor to drive for the master of magic."

"Please, Master?"

He opened the carriage door.

Goss knew what Rosen meant, but still refused: "Lord, there is no need to do this. The reason I left was not because of the recruitment officer's little matter."

"I just wanted to come and take a look at the situation. Now that I have basically seen the situation, I don't think about it anymore."

"Lord, there is really no need to waste your time on me."

He didn't want to get in the carriage anymore, and waved to his two sons, "It's not far to the port anyway, let's walk there."

He turned and left.

The two sons were very obedient to their father. After bowing to Rosen and apologizing, they followed closely.

He was really envious of these three talents.

Now that people have arrived on his island, he will never give up until the last step.

Even if the other party really left this time, he still had to do his best to entertain him as a good host and show his eagerness to recruit talented people.

So he drove slowly beside the three people, while Alia and other guards followed far behind, watching eagerly.

"Master, I wonder what brought you all the way north to the White Sturgeon Island?"

Goss's anger had subsided and he no longer had any opinion about Lord Rosen. After all, it was rare to find such a humble lord.

He told the truth: "I have heard about Luwakado and heard that he was treated well by you."

"I thought, if he was treated well with his little ability, I would be able to do the same. Now I have seen the lord's humility, I guess the rumors are true."

Rosen nodded repeatedly: "Then why did the master insist on leaving again?"

He was secretly delighted: "I spent a fortune to buy the bones, and now it has really attracted a thousand-mile horse!"

I feel like the money spent was well worth it.

Goss strode forward without looking back.

"Because from what I've observed along the way, I feel that you can't help me achieve what I want to achieve."

"And the goal I want to achieve will not help your career in the short term, but will greatly cost you money."

"In this case, I don't think there's any need to waste each other's time."

The more Rosen listened, the more curious he became: "Master, what kind of goal is it that you value so much and must achieve?"

Seeing that Goss said nothing, he did not urge him, but drove the carriage and followed the other party silently.

Goss just walked along in silence, with no intention of saying anything.

Fortunately, he has two sons, and they both seem to have good tempers.

When Rosen waited for a while but still didn't see any sign, he asked his son, "What are your names, gentlemen?"

"Cavendi," said the eldest son.

"Alshut," said the youngest son.

Rosen asked, "Oh, two mages, may I have the honor to know your goal?"

The two young wizards looked at each other.

Finally, the youngest son, Alshut, whispered, "Father, what did I say?"

"Just say what you want to say, why are you asking me?" Goss's voice was cold, but he did not refuse.

Obviously, it's not that he didn't want to say it, but he had said it so fully that he couldn't take it back.

This kind of hard and stubborn temper is almost a common problem among scholar-mages who have studied magic for many years.

Because they have become completely accustomed to dealing with the cold rules of the Creator.

Al Shute said to Rosen: "Baron, my elder brother Cavendish has discovered a transformation array that can transform the power of flames into pure force."

The sentence was simple, but to the ears of Rosen, a ten-ring wizard, it was like a thunderbolt in the silent midnight, almost knocking him off the carriage.

He quickly asked: "When did you discover it? How effective is it? Have you shared your results with other mages?"

Mage Cavendish answered, "About four months ago. As for the effect, it's very average, with a conversion efficiency of less than 0.01%. If you don't observe carefully, you won't even notice it."

Alshut then replied: "We have discussed the relevant results with some mages, and it has also caused some response in the local area."

"But in the end, due to the low conversion efficiency and the high cost of replicating the experiment, it did not attract enough attention."

“But my father.”

Alshut looked at the old wizard with some awe: "He insisted that this transformation array has very important magical significance, and he said that he must persist in studying it."

"He had a complete falling out with the Marquis because the Marquis was unwilling to pay for the experiment."

Rosen immediately asked, "Master Cavendish, may I have the honor of seeing your transformation array?"

Cavendish is his own father.

The old wizard sensed it and said, "See, this is no secret in Kaa anyway."

Cavendish took out a huge blueprint from his bag and handed it to Rosen.

While controlling the carriage, Rosen used the Wizard's Hand to open the blueprint and look at it carefully.

At first glance, the magic circle seems very complex and exquisite.

It doesn't seem to be the result of luck, but rather the result of gradual exploration, accumulation and optimization.

If you try your luck with the Creator, you might be able to pick up a gold nugget in the wild, but you won’t be able to pick up a CPU.

In other words, this Cavendish may have mastered a relatively mature conversion theory.

This discovery made Rosen's heart beat slightly faster.

He continued to look closely and asked Lai Fu to assist in the analysis.

Soon, Lai Fu came to the conclusion: "This array is very likely to be true, and may involve the discussion of the basic laws of the world."

This conclusion made Rosen's heart beat faster.

After entering the contents of the magic circle into Lai Fu's database, he handed the blueprint back respectfully: "Master Cavendish, this is truly one of the most exquisite magic circles I have ever seen."

"If we can improve the conversion efficiency, even if it's just 1%, it will be enough to change the world!"

Why? Because force, or pure force in full, is a precious energy.

Why is it expensive?

The value lies in the word "pure".

Because, like gravity, it exerts a completely uniform force on all matter with mass.

This is something that has never been achieved by Earth's technology and has only appeared in science fiction.

If this thing could produce any practical results, any one of them would be amazing!
