Chapter 417 Qingqi Tribe
Chapter 417 Qingqi Tribe
It is said that a long time ago there existed a legendary fox species, which was known for its ever-changing appearance and difficult-to-identify movements, and was called the "Qingqi Beast".
The Qingqi tribe is the race that inherited this ancient bloodline.
Many years ago, when the Qingqi tribe encountered difficulties, the wizard extended a helping hand, and the Qingqi tribe came to seek refuge after being rescued.
The people of the Qingqi tribe have a characteristic: the women are beautiful and gentle like water, the men are handsome, and they like to rely on the strong and always remain loyal.
It is difficult for a powerful wizard to dislike such a person.
As time went by, the Qingqi tribe gradually became a group that could not be ignored in the wizarding world through dependent "marriages".
Among all the alien groups that came to join the group, the Qingqi tribe was definitely not ranked at the top in terms of time, but they were the fastest to integrate into the wizarding community. Now they are actively moving closer and trying to cultivate wizards of their own.
In the living room, after listening to the two people's stories, all kinds of information about the Qingqi tribe immediately emerged in his mind.
"The Qingqi tribe is very good at seizing opportunities." He said with a smile.
"That's right. Ever since your Black Magic Wind and Fire Array came into being, the difficulty of becoming a formal wizard has dropped a lot. The Qingqi tribe was the first to respond." Dorothy agreed with this and complimented him at the same time.
"Since you've called my name, I agree to help you." Regardless of the Qingqi tribe, Ivan had to give face to the two people in front of him. Besides, it would be profitable for him to help the aliens become official wizards.
"that would be great."
"What about people?"
"At Qingqi Lake, could you please go there, Scholar Ivan? We are willing to accompany you." Dorothy felt a little embarrassed when she said this, but she had to do it.
On one side, Angus had the same attitude.
"You have to repay a favor." Seeing his puzzled look, Angus explained.
"Okay then." Ivan nodded slightly and didn't ask any more questions. "But I can't leave for now. I need to wait a few more days."
"It's okay, it's okay. You can come whenever you are free. It's up to you. There's no rush over there." Angus and Dorothy had no objection to this.
After a while, Dorothy left first, and Angus chatted with Ivan for a while.
From his words, Ivan realized how frequent the Qingqi tribe's 'intermarriages' were. It could almost be described as 'pervasive'. Any up-and-coming wizard would have a member of the Qingqi tribe attached to him, regardless of whether they were male or female wizards.
I can’t say that this is the case for all of them, but it’s close to half.
Angus has a concubine from the Qingqi tribe in his backyard, and this concubine also serves as a link to maintain contact.
Moreover, the Qingqi tribe is good at making wizards owe favors in various ways. Favors can be big or small, and they don't offend people.
After hearing what he said, Ivan was really enlightened.
"Don't laugh at me. You'll understand when you go to Qingqi Lake." Angus shook his head slowly, as if to say, 'You can't get past this either.'
"Really? I'll see."
Ivan didn't care. He was the kind of man who remained unshakable in the face of a group of night elves.
……
Time passed slowly, and a few days later, the men sent by Hotes arrived at Xunmu Tower. They were the same wind and thunder elemental creature from last time, in human form, with four pairs of wind and thunder wings and a strange face.
The two were old acquaintances, and Ivan knew his name was 'Coram'.
"Colum, you came faster than last time."
"Last time I was delivering something, this time I was picking something up, how can they be the same?"
"Okay, then you can take these elven wines to Lord Hotes for me and tell him that it's a small gift from me."
"So it's fine wine. Then I should go back faster, or the master might be unhappy."
Ivan was a little speechless after hearing this. He didn't want to delay Coram's precious time, so he prepared to take out all the wine he had prepared. However, Coram said that it was not necessary to go through so much trouble, and he could just exchange the space rings directly, so as to avoid moving the wine around, causing the wine to vibrate and destroy the original flavor, and causing the master to scold him for nothing.
He seemed to have had experience in this area.
Ivan had no choice but to obey Colum.
However, he also realized that his boss, Hotes, was definitely a wine lover. He could tell from the attitudes of his subordinates. He had to pay more attention to wine in the future.
"Well, Wizard Ivan, goodbye."
"Goodbye."
After getting the things, Coram flew directly away from the Swift Wood Tower and disappeared in the air in the blink of an eye.
Ivan watched him leave, and his mental power penetrated into the space ring. He was suddenly stunned. Not only was the space inside the ring large, but there were also many things inside.
"Is this a return gift? Director Cherry said that the speaker's family is wealthy, which is probably true. This is really generous."
Ivan felt a little ashamed. He had never thought of exchanging the things in the ring with fine wine. There was a universal arcane scroll in it, exactly the same as the one he had used before.
There is another scroll, which records a secret method - Activation Construct.
There is also a colorful wizard robe, as well as a large number of high-quality magic stones and high-quality space crystals.
"No wonder Coram ran away without saying a word. He was probably afraid that I wouldn't want to accept it, and that Speaker Hotes would scold him when he returned." To be honest, if he had known about it in advance, he would definitely not have accepted it so easily.
It's not that he is pretentious, but he doesn't accept gifts without doing anything. He can't accept gifts again and again from others, even if it's his boss.
There is no way to feel at ease about this matter.
"Forget it. I guess in the Speaker's mind, those fine wines are worth the price." Ivan thought for a while and thought of a possible reason. He was speechless.
Love is priceless, and it is none of the Speaker’s business what he likes.
Among these things, the Universal Arcane Scroll is needless to say. Although it is a bit impractical, it is extremely powerful and was not used to resist the attack of the Lava Lord not long ago.
Activation Construct is a special spell that can be used to activate some items, such as armor, puppets, stone statues, etc.
This spell has no set levels. It depends on personal strength and comprehension. It can be seen as a kind of "enlightenment". The enlightened puppet has a certain thinking ability, which is usually higher than the alchemical puppet, and is the best resident guard.
Ivan subconsciously glanced at his wizard tower, and then he rejected the idea.
"This won't work. The wizard tower is too big. There are too many things involved and it cannot be activated." He had never heard of any wizard tower being activated, which meant that the technology in this area was not mature.
When he becomes stronger, perhaps he can study it in depth.
"The Wind and Thunder Robe is actually a primary magic weapon, focused on escape. Are they afraid that I will encounter a creature like the Lava Lord again?" He found that the colorful wizard robe was not simple either.
It looks so fancy and confusing, and consistent with Hotes' own wizard style, but it is a low-level magic weapon involving the power of the elemental realm, and its value is immeasurable.
"It's too conspicuous and doesn't suit this wizard's style."
Ivan put it on and tried it out. It was impervious to water and fire and had outstanding defensive capabilities, but his garish color could not be changed. After thinking about it, he decided to simply wear it as an inner lining.
There's no rule that says you can't wear two wizard robes at the same time.
As for the other things in the ring, the top-grade magic stones are secondary. On the contrary, the top-grade space crystals are hard to come by.
For someone like him who is proficient in space means, high-quality space crystals can be used in many ways and are of great help in further exploring space knowledge.
"How about learning how to make wine?"
Ivan thought he was not a person who liked to flatter his superiors, but Speaker Hotes gave him too much.
He shook his head slightly and threw the idea out of his mind. How could the Speaker like the newly brewed wine? It would be more practical to try his luck with those races with a long history.
