Chapter 277 Membership Test
Chapter 277 Membership Test
An hour later, Ivan followed Mendane out of the laboratory and came to the testing workshop, which was also on the second floor.
When the two arrived, there were already several enchanters inside. These people were all elders of the Enchanting Guild, not just from the Space School.
As the assessment approached, Mendane did not introduce anyone else to him.
"Is he the one Nelson introduced?" A few minutes later, a male wizard in his forties or fifties arrived. He was obviously a third-level wizard and vice-president.
"Yes, he is Ivan Marichatton." Mendane had already reported the situation and did not repeat Ivan's personal message.
"Nelson kept his promise. When he left, he said he would recommend a talented person to my space school. After so many years, you are finally here, Wizard Ivan." Angus said with a smile.
After hearing the vice president's words, the elders of other schools were dumbfounded. Isn't this blatantly trying to recruit people to their own school? Vice President Angus is too uncivilized.
A higher-ranking official can crush a person, not to mention that the other party is also stronger than them. They looked at each other and chose to remain silent.
"It would be my honor to join the Space School." Ivan was paying attention to all the movements in the workshop. Seeing this scene, what else could he say? He could only agree to join the Space School.
"That's thoughtful." Angus nodded with satisfaction, and then announced: "We'll talk later. There is only one test for you. You only need to refine a high-level magic item in front of us - 12 beams of Thousand-Change Star Cones."
"I'm OK."
Ivan thought to himself, as expected.
Mendane was so confident that it must be something he was familiar with.
Although the Thousand Star Cone has only twelve rune bundles, it involves all aspects of power and can be said to be all-encompassing. It is an extreme test of the enchanter's control level. Many problems can also be found during the refining process.
Whether he has reached the level to join the Enchanting Guild, the enchanters present will make their own judgment through his refining process.
Afterwards, Angus placed all the materials he brought on the workbench in the middle. There were just enough materials to refine a Thousand Changes Star Cone, neither more nor less.
"Then I'll start."
Ivan gestured to his left and right and began his own refining.
The raw materials floated in front of him one by one, and through his extraction, calcination, shaping, cooling and other methods, they gradually turned into another appearance.
No matter what kind of raw materials were involved, he moved without any hesitation or pause.
The steps of mixing and molding the raw materials are the same. His operation fully demonstrates what is meant by "flowing like water" and "pleasing to the eyes".
Many elders around nodded slightly.
Mendane didn't have a stern face, and a smile appeared in the corners of his eyes at some point.
What these people didn't know was that when Ivan first refined the Thousand Star Cone, he was only a first-level wizard, not even a first-level senior wizard.
Later, he did not relax his research on the Thousand Changing Star Symbol Array. He focused on it when searching for the Ant-Man's secret vault, conducted in-depth research when exploring the Ant King's Nirvana Cocoon Array, and also conducted a lot of research when he was at the Lake of Shadows.
To this day, he has already mastered the Thousand Changes Star Talisman Array and the Thousand Changes Star Cone to perfection.
Let him refine it according to the instructions, wouldn't it be an easy task?
In the workshop, when Ivan was immersed in refining the Thousand Star Cone, time passed quickly without him noticing.
"Clap clap clap."
Half a day later, Angus calmed the elemental turmoil in the room with a wave of his sleeves, and then took the lead in applauding to express his appreciation.
Mendane was the first to respond, and the others followed suit by clapping.
The level of enchantment attainment can be seen from the fluency of the enchanter's refining techniques and the final degree of completion. Ivan has undoubtedly been recognized by the enchanters present, who believe that he is qualified for the position of elder of the Enchanting Guild.
"Wizard Ivan, welcome to join the Space School and serve as an elder." Angus said as if it was the final word.
"Vice President Angus, I'm glad to have accomplished your mission." Ivan wiped the sweat off his face. The two agreed and let the matter come to a conclusion. It was our will, and the other elders couldn't say anything. Besides, the Space School had the fewest people, so it didn't matter if one person was allowed to take over.
Other elders came forward to congratulate and introduce themselves, and that’s how everyone got to know each other.
After the testimony, the other elders left quickly.
"According to convention, this Thousand Star Cone is your gift for joining the society." Angus waved his hand, and the Thousand Star Cone on the table fell into Ivan's hands again.
"Thank you." Ivan was not polite. He asked hesitantly, "Don't we still need to verify your identity?"
"Don't underestimate the strength of the guild. Your identity is no longer in doubt." Angus said with a smile.
Ivan nodded silently. No matter what means the guild used, it was indeed commendable that they could confirm the identity of a person from a distant peninsula within half a day.
It is also a good thing for him. He can become a member of the Enchanting Guild directly without waiting too long.
"First, you can go around with Mendane and get familiar with the guild. Then you can choose a research room so that you can have a place to stay. The rest can be discussed after you have settled down."
Angus gave the two of them a few instructions and then parted ways.
Just as he said, Ivan came from afar, so nothing could be done until he was settled.
Mendane took him on a tour of the union with great interest, and collected all the necessary items. Under his persuasion, Ivan changed into the wizard robe unique to the Enchanting Guild.
From then on, Ivan became the direct elder of the Dongdu Enchanting Guild.
"Come on, I'll take you to the independent base of our space school. There's plenty of space there, and you can choose a well-protected laboratory." Mendane led him to the exit leading to the first floor.
"independent?"
"Unlike other schools, each of our elders can have an independent tower as a personal research room, and the protection is also second to none."
"What's the reason?" Ivan suddenly had a bad feeling.
"We are few in number."
"It's more than that. Please explain."
"Wizard Ivan, you should know the uncertainty of space. Compared with the research of other schools, our research is indeed more dangerous. It is precisely because there are so many unknowns that it is more worthy for us to immerse ourselves in it, isn't it?"
Mendane smiled awkwardly but did not hide anything.
Among all the schools of exploration, the space school contains the most dangers. There have been many times in the past when people suddenly disappeared while exploring.
An hour or two later, it was confirmed that the person was dead, but no one knew where he died.
There are also cases where entire towers have disappeared.
With so many examples like this, it becomes necessary to allocate a separate tower with strong protection to each elder of the space school.
Ivan was a little speechless, but after all, he was the one who had seen space cracks up close, so he didn't find it strange.
Outside the Three Towers, Rogier witnessed Ivan entering the guild, and he kept making assumptions while waiting for him to come out.
But after waiting for a long time, he still didn't see any sign of the other party, so he had to leave first and walked outside the Three Sons Tower.
"That's--Evan!"
Roger happened to see two figures coming out from the other side. One of the familiar figures made his eyes widen. From the other person's clothes, it was not difficult to tell that the other person seemed to have become a direct elder of the Enchanting Guild.
Is the test that quick?
Roger's expression kept changing, but he was sure of one thing: Ivan had indeed become a guild elder, making him even more worthy of making friends.
