"Diesel-sama, is this where my father lives?"

Orson looked yearning at the mage tower on the heights, but his hand tugged at Penny's sleeve.

The wizard nodded, but saw a group of strangers standing in front of the mage tower at some point, and Penny saw a middle-aged man in a robe in the middle of the crowd for the first time, and a smile appeared on his face.

He had collected information on some of the high-ranking members of the Wizards of the Coast, and was not ignorant of some of the characteristics of the guild president.

What's more, the badge on the robe is so conspicuous.

Although wizards may not like to carry some burdens on their bodies to identify themselves when they travel, the guild leader came with this badge to clearly express his identity directly to Penny, and did not want to go around in circles.

Penny was not surprised by his visit, and it was strange that the magnate who held the actual power of the Coastal Society was as silent as he had been the other day.

This straightforward style is very much to Penny's taste, but in his opinion, the protective spells outside the body of this elder seem to be a little too much, even to the point that they are far more than the average wizard needs, maybe too cautious, but this allows Penny to roughly judge the level of this president.

Was it a mistake that the aura of spell triggers surrounded his body, revealing his level of power so clearly?

Penny shook his head, each mage had a different personal style, or maybe this guild was such a guy who liked to show his strength.

Perhaps, this elder has hidden some of his strength and has not revealed it, and it may not be as superficial as outsiders think.

This alarmed Penny, and all in all, the guild's arcane skills were above his.

"Hello, Mistress Diesel, I'm Tyran Banks, president of the Dragoncoast Wizards Guild. He took the initiative to greet Penny, and his smile was very kind, not like a guy who likes to put on a show, and Penny did not have a bad impression of this person at first sight.

"It turned out to be Master Banks. ”

"To make a long story short, the contemptible people have already heard about the affairs of Ximen City. The president didn't mean to go around in circles, but went straight to the point: "We have decided to remove the Bucklao councillor from his post for his misconduct, and the apprentice Duncan, we have also decided to arrest and put him to death, I don't know if Mr. Diesel is satisfied." ”

Penny's eyebrows jumped, although he knew that the Wizards of the Coast Association would probably compromise under his overtures and statements, but he didn't expect these guys to really take Bucklaw's knife, let alone how fierce this knife was.

But if you think about it, it's average, after all, as long as Old Bucklaw is still an elder of the Wizards of the Coast, losing one or two titles won't hurt your bones.

And whether it is Bucklau or the apprentice Duncan, they are all flea-like little people in Penny's eyes, no matter how he jumps up and down, he can't pose any threat to him, and he doesn't even bother to deal with it, but the attitude of the Coastal Association undoubtedly makes Penny feel comfortable.

"I'm really tired of President Banks, but I just hope that Lord Zoth's legacy can be properly dealt with as soon as possible. Penny smiled back, "It's great that things can be sorted out properly, and I have to ask you to come for yourself." ”

"I am also very sorry that Lord Zos has passed away. Banks shook his head and sighed twice, looking down at the little boy who was pulling Penny's robe: "He's the son of Zoth, I didn't expect it to be so big." ”

"Warlock bloodline is rare, so someone has to be there to guide you. Penny smiled and touched Orson's head.

The atmosphere of the conversation was so relaxed that it seemed completely unrecognizable, and just a day before the two sides had been testing each other with ill intentions.

"What a lucky one. Banks' eyes flashed with a strange color.

Although most wizards have a little aversion to warlocks who have earned them for unearned skills since they have learned them for many years, they have experienced the hardships of learning arcane arts, and they are naturally very envious of warlocks with natural bloodlines.

No matter how shallow a warlock's bloodline is, even if it is the lowest, it is worth several years of hard study for a wizard, which of course makes people jealous and envious.

What's more, the bloodline of a warlock who can be awakened naturally must have a pretty good level in itself, and with a little pondering, it will definitely be able to become a weapon.

Therefore, many wizards like to recruit children with warlock blood as apprentices, and it is much cheaper to train such a guy as an assistant than to train a mage apprentice.

"By the way, I wonder if Lord Diesel is interested in joining our society?" After a few glances at the little boy Orson, the topic returned to the wizard, and Penny was not surprised by this invitation, the president came in person, firstly, to show his attitude, and secondly, of course, to receive some desired returns, so he happily accepted the invitation.

In his opinion, it is of course very advantageous to be able to hide in such an organization, not to mention that this association holds most of the arcane resources of the Dragon Coast, and joining it, of course, can get a lot of light, as for the risks that may be encountered, they are not worth mentioning compared to the benefits that may be obtained, and it requires him to pay...... Penny thinks there's not much the Coast Association can get out of itself.

The negotiations ended in a peaceful and good atmosphere, and before leaving, President Banks kindly offered to provide a group of assistants to help Penny recover Zoth's Mage Tower, which was not an easy task.

You must know that before a wizard leaves home, most of them will fully open the insurance measures of the mage tower, and such a mage tower is much more difficult to deal with than a simple five-ring mage.

Even for a spellcaster one or two grades higher, it would take months to recover such a mage tower, and there was no guarantee that the mage tower would be intact - it was impossible for these wizards not to collide with the mage tower's protection in the process of recovery.

Even with the guidance of Zoth's close apprentice, no shrewd wizard would be able to reveal the full secrets of the Mage Tower to his apprentices.

However, Penny politely refused, and after President Banks left, he looked at the little boy who was eager to try the mage tower, and smiled and beckoned to the apprentice Rand to start retrieving the mage tower.

"My lord, you just went in like this?" Rand was stunned when he heard the call.

"Can't you?"

"You need some helpers, sir. Rand bowed his head.

Recovering the Mage Tower was risky, and he was even mentally prepared to sacrifice some of his apprentices.

"There's no need. Penny shook his head, "It just so happens that I need to find a chance to experiment with some of my new technologies. ”

The tone of the latter words was not high, and Rand didn't hear it clearly, so he couldn't persuade him, so he could only follow the adult surnamed Ren.

Anyway, if the momentum is not good, you can withdraw at any time.

"Sir, I'm going in too. Orson screamed, and was grabbed by a calm-faced Sanna.

What kind of work is it to recover the mage tower, the female ranger is very clear, she has not visited the mage tower, and she knows the power of a high-level wizard's base.

"Next to the house, you can choose a house to live in. Penny nodded at Sanna.

"No, I'll make a place there. Sanna pointed to a small grove of trees on the other side and smiled at Penny, "I hope we can get along well in the future." ”

"Yes. The mage continued to nod.

Orson reluctantly followed his mother away, most warlocks are naturally extremely curious about things related to arcane, and of course he would like to be able to visit Zoth's mage tower, but it seems that he does not have the opportunity to do so now.

Walking through the wizard's manor, he suddenly saw a little girl about his size being carried by an older woman towards the mage tower, he glanced at the little girl with some surprise, and the two pairs of eyes looked at each other, each of them was a little confused.

Obviously, it's a little strange how a child like the other party can appear in such a place.

Sanna was also aware of the older and younger women, but she cared more about the older girl, the warrior's instincts made her know that the girl was very dangerous, but when she saw her beautiful face and languid gait, she remembered what she had seen in Edmont House.

It seems that this adult's ** is really not ordinarily powerful.

She glanced at the wizard beneath the mage's tower from afar with a somewhat strange gaze.

"My lord, I will accompany you in. Nephies jumped out of Lanny's arms and strode to the mage, with a pitiful expression of begging.

"You're dangerous inside. The wizard raised an eyebrow: "I may not be able to take care of you. ”

"I'm much more useful than you think, my lord. Nephis grabbed Penny's trouser legs, "I know the structure of the Mage Tower, and I've been doing this for two years in that adult's base. ”

Penny raised an eyebrow.

That's probably a good reason.

"This little girl wants to find death, why don't you fulfill her?" Penny heard the female black warrior's somewhat irritable voice: "I was just sleeping, and she woke me up, it really annoyed me." ”

Penny frowned, noticed the thin nightdress on Lanny, covered her mouth and coughed lightly, feeling a little embarrassed: "You just came out like this." ”

"Can't find the right one, well, damn it. Lanny scratched her head, her expression a little confused: "Anyway, this is your territory, isn't it?" Okay, play with her, I'll go back to take a nap." ”

She turned and walked away without looking back, and seemed to notice the gaffe, and her steps were so fast that Penny suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Especially when the apprentice next to him stared at him.

"It's time for us to go in. Penny coughed.

"Yes, my lord......" Rand suddenly realized that no matter how bold the adult woman's behavior is, it is not that he should have an idea.

As an apprentice, he has always been very measured.

"Then come along. Penny looked down at Nephis, who was grabbing her robe, and her tone was a little helpless.

The little girl immediately smiled.

...... Tyran Banks' team hasn't gone far yet.

Although he himself can use teleportation, but not all of the subordinates he brought with him can be taken away by teleportation, as the president of the guild and a senior mage, he is a strange and somewhat insecure person, so it is difficult to leave the guard, let alone use spells easily.

With this thing done, another boulder was placed in his heart, but his deputy seemed incomprehensible.

"My lord, is it necessary for us to be so kind to this foreign wizard?"

It was a young man of twenty-three or four-year-olds, with clear eyebrows and eyes, and dressed in the robes of a formal wizard.

Hugh Marek was indeed a gifted wizard, but was criticized by a considerable number of members of the Guild - as many suspected that this handsome man had killed his mentor during his apprenticeship and had gained the strength of a full-fledged wizard with stolen and looted materials.

However, wizards' real surnames are selfish, so once the matter is over, there is no conclusive evidence, and no one will pursue it, in any case, Xiu Marek was able to obtain the official identity of a wizard by his own efforts or possible actions, which cannot be erased.

Such a guy was certainly not popular with the general public, but he was surprisingly reused by President Banks, and he was indeed a man of some ability, so he was reused.

"Treat little Lord Bucklau like this, and I think Elder Bucklau will have an opinion on the south. ”

"Oh, is that so?" Banksy glanced at his deputy disapprehantly, perhaps he was very capable, but it was clear that the young man was not very broad-minded, but President Banks was not prepared to cultivate this trait in him, because if a deputy had too much ability, he would often have a mentality that did not fit his status.

Of course, the subordinates were confused, and the leader still needed to give an explanation: "Actually, this is what Elder Baklau himself requested." ”

"What?" Marek was surprised, "My lord, this seems a bit ......"

"It is not surprising at all that Elder Bucklaw, who is a man of reasonable surnames, certainly will not allow the mistake to continue. Banksy said lightly.

"However, that person is an outsider after all, and if this matter spreads, some members may think that you are ...... adults."

"Is there one over the other?" Banksy smiled.

Marek nodded cautiously.

"We've lost nothing, Marek. Banks shook his head: "Zos's death was an accident, and we didn't suffer a loss by exchanging his wealth for a high-level spellcaster who also had great value." ”

"But this person may not think about the guild like Lord Zos. ”

"He will, because he's going to hide here. Banksy said lightly: "If there is another purpose, he needs the help of an organization like ours, so that we may not be able to take advantage of each other." ”

"Uh......" Marek was stunned, "My lord, is that rumor true?"

"I don't know. Banks shook his head, and Marek was stunned.

"But such a wizard who appeared out of thin air, incognito, must be hiding someone, and accumulating power here is not small. Banksy continued.

When Marek heard this, he thought about it for a while, but he still couldn't let go: "But my lord, if the pursuit of him is a powerful and terrifying organization, such as the red-robed mage society......"

"When have you ever heard that a mage's feud can involve an association?" Banksy laughed suddenly.

Marek was silent.

I have to say that what Banks said makes sense, most wizarding guilds are loose organizations composed of some wizards out of exchange materials, even if they have a high degree of cohesion because of the long-term traditional operation, but in the bones, the loose structure of the wizarding guild will not change.

Therefore, the enmity involved in a single wizard rarely involves the entire association, especially such an society, although it may not seem large in scale, but it is deeply ingrained in the Dragon Coast, and it is actually not easy to mess with.

"Well, more importantly, what if we don't give it to him?" Banks sighed again when he saw that Marek was silent: "This man has a close relationship with the daughter of the Edmont family, and he is very powerful, if we bully the weak, we will only provoke a difficult enemy, you know how much we will lose every year if a nobleman of Simon is against the guild." ”

Marek's eyes lit up and he nodded abruptly.

Perhaps that's the crux of the matter.

In this way, if you win over this wizard and be able to get along with the nobles of Simon, it is indeed more valuable than a mage tower.

He thought to himself, beginning to admire the wisdom of the elder, and at the same time secretly warn that he still has a long way to go.

Suddenly, there was a slight disturbance from the direction behind him, and in Marek's sense, it was just a breeze that was not very obvious, and it didn't even attract his attention, but Banks could easily detect the violent source force turmoil coming from that direction.

This surprised him very much.

"Quick, go back and see. ”

This is what he commanded his men.
