Chapter 291 Lady Philomena

Chapter 291 Lady Philomena
The Enchanting Guild is a semi-official organization. Although it is not directly under the leadership of the China Tower United Council, it is also under the jurisdiction of the Berta General Guild. Many things are interconnected, and there are many issues that need to be considered.

In response to the enchanters' questions, the Dongdu Enchanting Guild neither confirmed nor denied them.

With such an attitude, people who are familiar with the guild's style feel that the rumor is most likely true, and many people come to the guild hall every day to inquire about the news.

In Xunmuta, Ivan's daily life is not much different from the past.

Many people knew about the rumors about the Black Magic Wind and Fire Array, but very few knew that he was the creator, so no one came to nag him for the time being.

"Hey, you don't know, it's really lively over there, like some important gathering. Everyone is saying that a great enchanter invented the Black Magic Wind and Fire Array. Some people even started arguing about it, saying that it was that so-and-so—"

"If he knew the truth, things would probably get lively here, and you wouldn't be able to keep quiet."

In the past two years, Locke has grown a lot, his strength has improved to the middle of level two, and he has also learned to hide his identity.

When he transforms into a pure human form, he looks very similar to Ivan. Because the two of them are one and the same and have a special relationship, he is very good at disguising himself as Ivan.

Just now, he came back from a stroll in the guild hall and enthusiastically talked about his experiences.

"It's okay. You can entertain visitors in my place. It's a good opportunity to practice your disguise skills." Ivan said without raising his head.

"Huh? No one is as lazy as you." The smile on Locke's face froze.

"Do you have any objections?" Ivan turned his head and looked at him.

"How can that be? You are the real master, and I will listen to you." Locke denied it repeatedly, and sighed in his heart, "It's really a one-level crushing victory." He hurriedly changed the subject: "Do you think this iron root was dug out from the ground by the wizard of the Ancient Tree Spine?"

"Who knows? Ancient Tree Ridge has few connections with other academies." Ivan's gaze returned to the pool.

At this moment, the two were standing next to the pool containing the Pantiegen. Just as he had guessed before, the Pantiegen began to shed its skin, layer by layer, and all overflowed from the pool.

"Where are your two Pan Tie roots? Why aren't they undergoing any transformation?" Locke asked the Queen Silkworm and the Swamp Ant standing beside them.

"I don't know, maybe the potential is not that great." The Queen Silkworm floated in the air and shook her little head.

At the beginning, a total of three Pan Tie roots were obtained, one of high quality and two of average quality. There are indeed differences in potential.

"I don't know either." Ze Yi shook his head.

Previously, Ze Yi followed the arrangement and went back to Yueqian Peninsula, but he had returned to Dongdu long ago.

In addition to arranging ant guards to keep an eye on the Crimson Cloud Realm, it also brought back information from the Mona Ant Colony hut. Everything was fine there, and Jushiti and Pernie were staying well at the academy.

Dean Wakin is still recovering from his injuries.

Many wizards who met the requirements of the academy's new contract left the Mona Ant Lodge and began their own travels and adventure plans. Among them was Randall, but no one knew where he went.

Ze Yi also went to the Shadow Lake to check if there were any changes there. At the same time, he took away the space system fragments that had been stored in the past and gave them all to Ivan.

"It's free for you."

After listening to the two insects' words, Locke muttered.

The Queen Silkworm was about to say something, but she saw the energy particles in the pool surge, blowing the rock skin fragments everywhere. She knew that Pan Tiegen's transformation had reached a critical moment, and she couldn't help swallowing the words back into her throat.

After a while, the dust settled.

Ivan stretched out his hand, and a root that seemed to be made of yellow rock fell into his palm, only one and a half meters long.

It feels smooth to the touch, like stone but not stone.

As his thoughts changed, the iron root first continued to stretch, then quickly shortened, and finally shortened to about ten centimeters, lightly wrapping around his arm.

It has an extraordinary hardness, exceeding that of most mixed metals, and can be used as a high-level magic item.

However, the consumption is relatively high when used, making it somewhat useless.

The method of refining Pan Tiegen is very simple. It only needs to be watered with blood to reach a certain contract. He completed it a long time ago.

"Sure enough, the potential has increased." Ivan couldn't help but use the identification spell. From the perspective of the raw materials of the secret magic clone, the potential of the Pan Tiegen has increased a lot.

It has barely reached the level of being a secret magic clone.

Of course, Pan Tiegen doesn't have any spiritual intelligence at all, which does not meet the requirements of the secret clone.

"What kind of species is this? It's so strange." Ivan looked up a lot of information, including from the Enchanting Guild and the Vernon Millennium Archives, but couldn't find any relevant information.

This made him wonder whether Pantiegen was a new species.

"Boss, Wizard Ivan, will you continue to train him?" Seeing that he had not spoken for a long time, Locke asked in a low voice.

"Why not? If you want, you can go to the Rank Chamber of Commerce. I remember Wizard Tim said that their goods will be delivered to the Rank Chamber of Commerce." Ivan saw through his little thoughts at a glance.

"Really? Hehe, I'm afraid I don't have enough magic stones." Locke did not deny this. He did have a great interest in Pan Tiegen.

"Then learn a skill."

"Okay, I'll try my best." Locke was actually a little distressed about this question: "You know, my aura is essentially different from that of a wizard. If I can't control it well, it will have a different aura, and the efficiency of refining things used by wizards will be relatively low."

"Take your time, you can get the magic stone yourself."

After Locke left, Ivan continued to study Pantegum.

He found that after completing a transformation, Pan Tiegen had become picky about food and no longer absorbed the Huangyan water. It was obviously craving for energy of a higher level.

He thought about it, and found some medium-level earth element crystal to refine a new portion of yellow rock water, and tried to let the Pantie root absorb it.

"Tsk tsk, you've become more capable. You really got the pick." After a moment, Ivan looked at Pan Tiegen with some surprise.

Pan Tiegen even refused to accept the Huangyan Water refined from the medium-level earth element crystal, and the same went for other energies of similar levels. Instead, he focused on the more special space energy.

"Forget it. Being able to absorb spatial energy is also a skill. I want to see if you can undergo a second transformation." Ivan also discovered subtle changes.

Unlike his previous state of rotten wood, Pan Tiegen now has a little bit of instinct, which can be considered a subtle spiritual wisdom.

If it weren't for his keen perception, he probably wouldn't have noticed this.

Not long after, he happened to have a plan to study space energy, and didn't mind sharing a part of Pan Tiegen's profits.

……

Time passed day by day, and ten days had passed since Ivan completed the project verification.

Xunmuta, Vice President Angus arrived suddenly.

"Ivan, come with me to meet someone."

"no problem."

Ivan agreed immediately. The person who could get the vice president to take him to meet him must be no ordinary person.

The two of them came all the way from the 107th Block to the 1st Block, and arrived at the core area of ​​Dongdu, a nine-story wizard tower, which was equivalent to the city lord's mansion of Dongdu Dongren City.

Thinking of a possibility, Ivan's heart skipped a beat.

"Don't show any impoliteness when you meet Lady Philomena later." Angus whispered as he reached the door.

"I will definitely maintain the proper respect." Ivan nodded solemnly.

"Let's go up." Angus summoned a light breeze with his hand, and the breeze helped the two of them to move upwards.

The fifth floor of the Witch Tower is where the city lord’s office is located. Due to the city lord’s special status, this place is rarely open to the public.

Angus took Ivan and walked in carefully. What they saw was an empty palace-like hall, as if they were in the royal court of a kingdom.

"Lady Philomena, Angus and Ivan greet you."

On the high platform inside the palace stood a figure in a bright yellow palace dress. She did not show any special aura, but brought great oppression to Ivan, making him feel as if he had seen the goddess Mavis.

This was actually caused by the difference in life levels, because Philomena Jixing was a fourth-level wizard.

Although level 4 wizards and level 3 wizards seem to be only one level apart, their strength and status actually vary greatly. Looking at the entire wizard community, level 4 wizards and above are considered high-level.

The third-level wizards are just the middle class of the tribe.

The eastern region of China Continent is guarded by Philomena. Only with her around can foreign races not dare to come and cause trouble.

Ivan never imagined that the Black Magic Wind and Fire Array would alarm such a powerful man.

“Are you Ewen Marichatton?

"correct."

"The Black Magic Wind and Fire Formation you researched is pretty good."

"Thank you for the compliment, sir."

"You have made great contributions to the wizarding world, and meritorious service must be rewarded. This is the code of conduct for us wizards. On behalf of the China Tower United Council, I commend you for your achievements. I hope you can continue to work hard and make greater contributions to our wizards."

After a while, Ivan followed Angus out of the witch tower and landed on the ground.

"Wizard Ivan, congratulations."

"I didn't expect to be rewarded with this." Ivan was still a little dizzy. The government actually allocated a piece of land to him, and there was a large magic stone mine hidden in the land.

This reward is simple and crude, which is unexpected.

"I'm not talking about rewards, but you have entered the eyes of the top figures, which is crucial." Angus smiled and shook his head, then reminded:
"However, you must be more careful in the future. When you become famous on the continent, you will also be noticed by many alien races."

"Uh - is it possible that someone is here to assassinate me?" Ivan came to his senses instantly.

"It's very possible. Stifling the genius of a rival faction is exactly what the enemy should do. But you don't have to worry too much. They will at most send out assassins of the third level. Otherwise, it would be breaking the rules and would lead to more intense retaliation, especially for someone like you who has a name on it."

"I understand."

Hearing his words, Ivan felt a little relieved.

Wizards have many methods, and their combat effectiveness is often much higher than that of enemies at the same level. Even if it is an enemy at the third level, he may be able to defeat them.

At worst, he can escape.

"Have you figured out how to develop the 'Dodd Magic Stone Mine'?" Angus just reminded and changed the subject.

"No." Ivan shook his head.

"Then think about it carefully. There is no need to rush. No one can take away the reward given to you by the Tower Council. No one has the courage to do so." Angus continued.

When the two parted, Angus reminded him to be prepared to become famous.

Ivan was stunned for two or three seconds, then he realized that the Black Magic Wind and Fire Array must have been thoroughly verified and it was time to announce it to the public.
