Chapter 367: Arcane Scroll
Chapter 367: Arcane Scroll
He went to the Vernon Millennium Archives early in the morning, and returned to the Swiftwood Tower with his harvest near dusk.
The secret art of prophecy only has two chances to be used, so he certainly won't use it lightly. He will use it to find key items or clues, or to recruit reliable subordinates.
As a four-leaf president, he, like Naniel, also has the opportunity to recruit three-leaf official members.
Just like he did in the beginning, before joining the Five Leaf Spear one must go through layers of assessments. If one fails, the newcomer will only become a peripheral member of the Second Leaf.
If he had used the secret art of prophecy beforehand, it would have been a waste of an opportunity.
Therefore, this matter must be handled with great caution, and people without outstanding talents must not be recruited.
"Spiritual problem?"
Inside the meditation room of Xunmu Tower, Ivan first thought about what he had said and learned today, and then browsed the relevant information left in Ye Luo's Book.
This was left by Speaker Hotes, so he dared not be disrespectful and had to confirm it as soon as possible.
The first question that caught his eye was about spirits. In fact, this was a report he had personally entered into the archives after he had experienced the spirit chaos in the Dodd Magic Stone Mine.
Since his secret clone is related to the cocoon of life and death, and other people do not have such conditions, Hots deliberately chose him as the first sequence for this problem.
“It’s a really tough question.”
Ivan was a little troubled by this problem. After all, it involved lord-level spiritual creatures and an unknown alien world, and the waters were quite complicated.
When he looked at the second question, he had an even bigger headache, because it was about investigating the hidden story behind the bloodline transformation.
He had heard Naniel talk about this issue before. It involved a level six betrayer and an unknown world, and the water involved was deeper than the previous problem.
"What a great way to put the safety of the wizarding world first. It seems that the Five-Leafed Spear has really put this matter at the core."
As Ivan read on, he found that none of the questions were easy. They either involved another world, or the surrounding alien forces, or the underground world, which made people's scalps tingle.
Fortunately, there are no mandatory requirements for these issues, nor are there any time or progress limits.
"It turns out to be free exploration. You can apply for resources and manpower support from the organization based on the progress and difficulty of the exploration." Only after reading to the end did he realize that this was actually a way to obtain resources.
Even if you do nothing, the Five-Leaf Spear does not impose any hard punishment, it will just make your boss unhappy.
He certainly wouldn't choose to do nothing.
However, these issues are of great importance and any negligence could lead to life-threatening situations. After weighing the pros and cons again and again, he felt that he should put them aside. Just as Speaker Hotes said, he had to think carefully about it.
……
Time is like the wind, moving forward slowly.
Twenty days later, Ivan finally waited for Hatti Xia Luoxi. In a seven-story wizard tower, he met this wise president.
"Lord Xia Luoxi, Ivan Marichatton greets you."
"Wizard Ivan, this title is too formal. You should call me 'President Hater'."
"President Hatti, it's an honor to meet you."
The first time he saw President Hatti, Ivan felt that he was an old man full of wisdom, as if he was a great sage who walked out of a legendary story, with an aura that was impressive.
"Not bad, not bad. You can tell at first glance that he is someone who can concentrate on studying things, and he has a good foundation in strength." Hati was quite satisfied with him and did not hesitate to praise him.
"President, you are too kind." Ivan did not dare to be presumptuous. "Don't be modest in front of me. Let me ask you, do you want to stay in Dongdu in the future, or do you want to work in other places in China Continent, or just go to Berta Blood Plain?" Hati waved his hand and asked directly.
"If possible, I hope to stay in China Continent, and it would be even better if I could stay in Dongdu." Ivan answered carefully.
"The guild will not force any great enchanter, so do you want to serve as the 'vice president' in Dongdu? Perform the duties like Angus did." Hati asked again.
"Uh--"
"Speak directly."
"I hope to have a less busy job so that I can have more time to delve into new enchanting knowledge." After hearing this, Ivan spoke his mind truthfully.
"I understand what you mean. Then, I will appoint you to the position and I hope you will be satisfied." Hardy nodded slightly, obviously expecting this and being prepared.
He announced Ivan's appointment directly - the Inspector of the Four Directions.
This Four-Directions Inspector is a nominal position of the General Guild. He does not need to report to the headquarters of Berta Blood Source, but only needs to be stationed on the China Continent, and the stationing location can be any of the four capital cities.
There is no specific work, but I can go in and out of various branches to check for gaps and fill them.
To Ivan, this was undoubtedly a very noble position, which did not require him to be bothered by trivial matters. It was simply tailor-made for him.
Little did he know that the Quartet Inspectors were actually prepared for young great enchanters with great potential.
Someone at the top of the guild values him and will naturally give him proper arrangements, arranging such a powerful but leisurely position so that he can do whatever he wants without being bound by rules and regulations.
Of course, he is not the first person to receive this honor.
"how?"
"I couldn't be more satisfied."
"That's fine. Remember to work hard. If I keep seeing your achievements, I won't let you off easily next time we meet. I might even take away your position as inspector."
Seeing the joy on his face, President Hati did not forget to give him a warning.
Without waiting for him to say anything, President Hati immediately announced the arrangements made by the city lord Philomena, another position - scholar at Dongdu University.
Only then did Yiwen realize that "great scholar" was also a job title.
The prefix of the name of a great scholar is "Dongdu", which requires the consent and appointment of the city lord. In fact, not only Dongdu but also other important places can be appointed, but the number of places in each place is extremely limited.
This position is similar to that of a consultant, and he can ask questions and give opinions on everything related to Dongdu.
In addition to the position, after negotiation between the two sides, he was given a five-story wizard tower as his future residence. This time it was undoubtedly a real wizard tower with complete functions.
"This is an arcane scroll. Philomena and I each have one. After activation, it can resist a level 4 attack. I hope you can use it at the most critical moment."
President Hatti's next plain words sounded like a thunderclap in Ivan's ears.
He stared blankly at the small crystal ball in the other person's hand, a crystal ball with a golden halo, and inside it was a scroll with gold background and blood patterns.
The president and the city lord each gave out one such precious life-saving scroll. This shows how much they value it.
For a moment, Ivan felt the pressure on his body was as heavy as a mountain.
