The Wizard's Secret Journey

Chapter 42 Revealed
Pushing open the carved iron gate, you will see a cobblestone path.

The path winds forward, with neatly trimmed lawns on both sides and a lush apple tree on the left.

As for the end of the path, there is a two-story building covering an area of ​​about 100 square meters. The exterior walls are made entirely of finely polished stones, inlaid with several pointed arch windows carved with exquisite patterns.

Lynn opened the door and watched the sunlight shine through the stained glass window, casting colorful shadows on the off-white carpet in the room.

Looking at the comfortable big house now, Lin En felt very happy.

He took two steps back, looked up at the densely packed gray tiles on the roof, and thought, this house will never leak again.

"Be gentle, don't damage the floor..."

Mrs. Carter's powerful voice could be faintly heard from the second floor. She was directing the workers to decorate the bedrooms.

Lynn walked up the spiral staircase and took a look. Seeing that everything was going on in an orderly manner, she was very satisfied with her decision to ask Mrs. Carter to be the head maid.

Mrs. Carter's previous owner also lived in the Stone House District. Although his status was far inferior to hers now, the old lady had lived in the Stone House District for many years and knew a lot of things. She was a great help in this move.

If it weren't for this old lady, just buying furniture would have been enough of a headache for him.

Of course, Lynn felt that the most important thing was that Mrs. Carter was a trustworthy person, and he could safely entrust tasks such as catering to her.

I looked for a while and saw that there was nothing I had done.

Lin En turned around and went back to the meditation room that he had asked them to clean up first.

He has not forgotten how he won all this.

The meditation room is located in the corner of the underground floor. It is the most valuable place in this house. Only here can one find the concentration of superb magic energy of level 0.

According to Lin En's test, in the meditation room, the recovery speed of magic power is directly shortened to 10 minutes, which is nearly ten times faster than the Mangrove Hotel.

Of course, another reason why the time is so short is that he does not have much magic power now.

'Remember that even in the academy's dormitory area, the average magic concentration is at least 0-level upper, and the meditation room dedicated to cultivation can reach 1-level...

'In such a high concentration of magic power, I don't need to worry about the consumption of magic power when strengthening the spirit. Just relying on the speed of passive recovery can cover the needs of strengthening the spirit during meditation.'

Lin En was envious, shook his head and began to meditate.

Time passed quietly like this.

With Carter and Gigos around, Lin En completely freed up his time. Apart from meditating every day, he studied the small wind shield technique.

Unfortunately, two days later, Lynn had to stop temporarily again.

The Golden Shadow Society had prepared an induction ceremony and welcome party for him and it was time.

An association is different from a school. Its members are trained from a young age. Most of the members here joined later. In addition to the binding of interests, such rituals are also needed to strengthen cohesion.

……

……

The initiation ceremony was held in a small hall at the Golden Shadow Society’s headquarters.

When Lynn arrived, Blue was already waiting for him.

"Your Excellency, there is no need to be nervous. A wizard's time is precious. The initiation ceremony is actually very brief and has only two main purposes.

"One is to inform all members of the association that we have a new wizard joining us, and the other is to determine your future responsibilities in the association."

Lynn nodded and waited patiently.

Soon, a guest arrived, and it happened to be someone Lin En knew.

"It's really you, sir." Garland lowered his hood and looked at Lin En in front of him with some shock in his eyes.
"When I learned from Lord Blue that the new member was named Lynn Kent, I wondered if it was Lord Blue. I didn't expect..."

Lin En also smiled: "Long time no see, Mr. Garland."

Looking at this buyer who once took care of his business, Lin En felt a little emotional.

When he was still selling French films, when he saw this wizard apprentice, he could only stand up respectfully immediately.

But now, the two are on an equal footing. Garland was very moved, and he handed over the gift in his hand:

"Congratulations on joining the association. I hope we can have the opportunity to discuss knowledge together in the future."

"Thank you, there will be a chance." Lynn took the gift and responded with a smile.

Communication like this is the most important purpose of the initiation ceremony.

Lin En has never been a sociable person, but he doesn't reject these things.

Time passed minute by minute, and members arrived one after another. Most of them were third-class apprentices, and the remaining small number were some extraordinary people.

As for wizards who are second-class apprentices and above... He is a third-class apprentice who has just joined the society and does not have that much face.

Lin En greeted and socialized with each member.

In just half an hour, he met more people than he had in the past two months.

In other words, because his mental strength has been strengthened recently and his memory has improved, Lin En can barely remember these people.

Most of the members who came were very friendly to him.

Except for a middle-aged wizard apprentice who arrived just before the ceremony began.

He had a mustache and small eyes. He came over empty-handed and said in a sarcastic tone:
"I'm sorry, I was in such a hurry to go out that I forgot to prepare a gift for you..."

He deliberately spoke loudly, attracting the attention of other members in the hall.

Blue next to him had no intention of getting involved, he just watched with his eyes and nose.

Lin En was unsure of his background, so he said calmly:
"It doesn't matter. Gifts are just a token of goodwill. If you come with good intentions, it doesn't matter if you don't have a gift..."

He didn't finish his words, but the meaning was clear.

The man half-squinted his eyes, as if he didn't expect that the young boy in front of him could say such a flawless statement.

But he seemed determined to go against Lin En, snorted coldly, and continued:

"I don't mean well. I'm just a little curious about what the wizard apprentice who stole the house at No. 74 Lanqiao Street that I had my eyes on looks like."

"Franky, come on. You still need a lot of contribution points to redeem the right to rent that apartment. When will it become the one you like?"

A wizard seemed to be unable to bear it and spoke out.

But his words were exactly what Frankie wanted.

He sneered and said loudly: "Yes, that's right, I am indeed still short of a lot of contribution points.

"But I didn't expect that some of the third-class wizard apprentices would be eligible to rent a 0-level high-grade magic energy concentration residence as soon as they came in!"

Franky's words immediately resonated with many of the third-class apprentices present, and they looked at Lin En with a strange look in their eyes.

Garland sat in the corner, always feeling that what Franky said was wrong, but he didn't know how to refute it. He just felt a little indignant on behalf of Lin En.

Lynn finally understood what was going on.

His expression was normal, and he spoke calmly and slowly:
"Mr. Franky, are you questioning the rules of the association?"

Franky's face froze, and he quickly denied it: "I didn't..."

"So you don't dare to question the association, so you vent your anger on me?"

As soon as Lin En finished speaking, Garland's eyes lit up in the hall, and he cleared his throat and muttered in a neither loud nor soft voice:

"I've often heard that the incompetent dare not confront the strong, and will only vent their anger on the weaker ones. Now it seems to be true."

Perhaps because these words were so harsh, a burst of laughter suddenly broke out in the hall.

Franky's face suddenly turned red, but he quickly regained his composure, shamelessly pretending nothing had happened, and walked back into the hall.

Lin En half-closed his eyes and looked at his back, frowning inwardly.
