Chapter 154: Master McKen

"Lian, this is Mage Yelena, a powerful magician who has been following Archmage McKen for three years."

Jovan finished speaking, and then felt a little awkward, because apart from this, he had no more common language with the two of them.

Ryan nodded, and Etria beside him took out a purse and handed it to Jovan.

After taking the purse, Jovan said goodbye to the two with a smile and quickly disappeared into the crowd in the distance, as if he didn't want to see Ryan again.

Perhaps, there is a huge gap in his heart at this moment.

Ryan looked at Yelena, and then they came to the tavern across the road. Although it was called a tavern, Ryan felt that it was more like a combination of a tavern and a restaurant.

There is a flag with a lion at the door, indicating that this is royal property.

Yelena was obviously not in the mood to communicate with Ryan. She swallowed the pastries on the silver plate without caring about her image, and said incoherently:

"You want to see my teacher?"

"It's not easy."

"It's not easy, so there is still a chance, right?"

Ryan looked at Yelena, who looked like she hadn't eaten for three days, and pushed the food in front of him over.

After eating the food, Yelena seemed to finally come back to life. She suddenly looked up at Ryan's handsome face. His black hair and red eyes made Yelena blush uncontrollably and then she screamed.

"what!!!"

Many pairs of eyes were attracted, and then Yelena quickly ran into the tavern. A moment later, Yelena, who looked delicate, came out again.

She looked at the mess on the table with a blushing face.

"I'm sorry, I really haven't eaten for too long, and I've been relying on potions."

"It's okay. It looks like the Mage Tower of Grand Mage McKen is very busy?"

Ryan looked at Yelena. The magicians gathered in the Mage Tower were either conducting magic research and trying out spells, or working.

Yes, work. Those magic potions did not fall from the sky. The nobles needed magic potions, and so did the extraordinary people in various systems. Moreover, this was also the main source of income for magicians.

With money, they can meditate and practice better.

Especially since Jovan said that Grand Master McKen had no disciples, this meant that these people would have to pay for everything themselves.

That's horrible……

In fact, Yelena's talent should be among the best, otherwise she would not have become a magician at such a young age, and even entered the Mage Tower and relied on a great wizard.

Therefore, if the wizard tower of Archmage McKen is very busy, it means that the archmage may not be short of money.

There is no shortage of money, which will make Ryan very embarrassed.

"No, no, it's just that something went wrong in my own magic laboratory and I need to fix it myself."

Yelena blushed and said that she was very short of money now.

"I can help you see the Archmage. How much money can you give me?"

Quite directly.

"Two hundred gold coins, how about that?"

"two hundred?"

Yelena's eyes lit up, and the way she looked at Ryan changed.

"That's it."

Yelena agreed easily, then looked at Ryan hesitantly.

"I am also a life magician. I am good at stimulating the activity of plants. The magic system I learned is similar to that of Master McKen. If you need anything, maybe I can help you."

Yelena said with a blush, and she looked around with flickering eyes, as if she was scared of intercepting the archmage's list.

"Oh? So your magic and research involve war horses?"

Yelena is not an ordinary mage apprentice. She has her own magic laboratory and technology. Ryan is not surprised.

"what?"

Yelena's eyes widened, then she shook her head.

"I am good at activating plants, not flesh and blood."

"Plants..." Ryan pondered, then looked at Yelena with bright eyes.

"Yelena, are you a noble?"

"No."

Yelena didn't know why Ryan asked that.

"Then are you willing to become a magician in my territory?"

Yelena stared at Ryan with wide eyes and asked:
"You want me to pledge my loyalty to you?"

"It would be fine if your wizard is good at fighting, but if you're not, perhaps we can do it in a cooperative way."

Life magic, with a tendency towards plant magic, this Yelena has gone astray on the path to becoming a magician.

But the difference between a wood magician and a life magician is not that big... right?

Of course, the key thing for Ryan was that he thought of the help that Yelena might be able to give him, which was food.

It is difficult to define whether the growth of food requires wood magic or life magic, but Yelena in front of him seems to be very suitable.

She would not allow food to grow wildly like a wood mage, but she possessed life magic that could increase food growth.

Of course, these are all Ryan’s own guesses. Whether they are true or not still needs to be put into practice.

Yelena stood up, she didn't seem to have this idea.

"I'll take you to see the Archmage."

Ryan had a strange expression on his face. After hearing what Jovan said before, he thought that this great wizard was hard to come by, but now it seemed that he could be seen at any time.

With a wizard leading the way, the soldiers of the magic academy would naturally not stop Ryan.

After more than ten minutes, Ryan met Master McKen.

A refined old man with a snow-white beard and wearing a mage robe like that of an aristocrat.

When Ryan saw him, Master McKen was sitting by the window, enjoying the sunbath and intoxicated by the wine. The cyan liquid in the transparent glass in his hand was shaking slightly.

This……

"Teacher, I brought you a nobleman."

"Oh, Yelena, how much did you make from this?"

Yelena widened her eyes and said:
"Two... one hundred and fifty."

"Yeah, that's good. Half of it belongs to me."

Master McKen said casually, without even turning his head, and asked three questions directly.

"Where are you from, what level, and what kind of noble are you?"

The other party's three simple questions made Ryan seem to realize something, but the next moment he laughed.

"Lian, the Baron of the Frozen Lands of the Northern Province. As for what he does... I guess he sells minerals."

Hearing Ryan's words, Master McKen turned his head immediately, looked at Ryan with burning eyes, and suddenly laughed.

"baron?"

"Yes."
