In front of the mountain path of Kamar-Taj.
The mage Hamil sat at a table with a stern face, with two other mages behind him wearing bright red robes and white belts around their waists.
Mordo and Casillas hid far behind the crowd.
Casillas awkwardly tugged at his red cheongsam and couldn't help but complain to Mordo, "I told you to come earlier, but you had to stay up so late. It's really my bad luck to live with you."
Mordo, realizing he was in the wrong, scratched his head and said, "But if we don't make the most of our training time, when will we ever become seasoned mages?"
Casillas crossed his arms, staring fiercely at Mordo as if he wanted to stew Mordo with red dates and ginseng and eat him.
"What should we do now!"
Mordo immediately fell silent, but under Casillas's gritted teeth, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Actually, wearing this outfit isn't a big deal."
Casillas' eyes widened instantly, and he screamed, "It's nothing serious! Are you sure!"
Casillas tugged at his cheongsam and said, "Is this dress proper?!"
I trusted you, that's why I asked you to help me collect it. What kind of garbage is this?!
I'm not one of those gigolos!
"I don't know either~ The fabric of this dress feels so smooth, I didn't look at it." After Mordo finished explaining, he couldn't help but look at Casillas.
The bright red cheongsam was made of silk and embroidered with floral patterns. Modu had never worn such fine clothes before; one could simply ignore that it was a woman's garment.
Casillas was furious when he saw Mordo's furtive glances.
The heart-shaped cutout on the chest of this dress would definitely look amazing on a woman, revealing a cleavage, but on a grown man like myself, it's an eyesore, especially with a big black guy next to me, making it even more unbearable to look at.
A tuft of chest hair sways in the wind; if you cover it up, wouldn't that make you look effeminate?
If you don't cover it up...
"Hehe." Modu chuckled awkwardly twice and said, "There aren't many people here now. If we don't register quickly, we might not meet anyone else."
Casillas could only stamp his feet and follow.
As dusk settled, the mage Hamil looked up and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Finally, no one's around."
I've completely lost face.
The two mages behind him exchanged a glance and nodded in deep agreement.
Master Hamil had already put down his brush and called out, "Get ready and go find a good spot."
I heard the dishes look pretty good today.
The two mages, who had been standing for a day, quickly coordinated their efforts: one was responsible for opening the portal, and the other for carrying the items inside.
Suddenly at this moment.
Two figures suddenly emerged from the bushes nearby.
In response, the mage Hamil raised his hand and unleashed a protective magic circle. He nimbly assumed a pose, and the constantly rotating magic circle, along with Hamil's posture, gave off a feeling of being ready to unleash his power.
He didn't look like a gentle, refined monk with a goatee at all.
Casillas quickly said, "Master Hamil, please hold on! It's us!"
Modu nodded repeatedly and said, "Master Hamil, it is I, Modu."
And Casillas.
The mage Hamil frowned as he looked at Mordo and Kaecilius, somewhat hesitant to recognize them, and asked, "Are you Mordo?"
Are you Casillas?
Why are you all dressed like this?
Casillas glared fiercely at Mordo, thinking to himself: I'm changing dorms tonight, I want a single room!
Casillas changed the subject, saying, "This is a gift. Sorry, we don't have much cash left since we came to learn the trade."
Master Hamil waved his hand and said, "It's alright, as long as the sentiment is there."
The monk Hamil, who was in charge of registering the gifts, looked down on these paltry sums. What money could these apprentices possibly have? Especially the monks of Kamar-Taj, who were usually supported by Kamar-Taj.
The majority still belong to those same forces, especially Asgard, which is the closest to the land.
I heard they sent a lot of treasure, and also some Asgardian specialties, crabs.
A hybrid of a crab and a shellfish.
It tastes delicious and is also a good source of calcium.
Even Odin, the lord of Asgard, cannot eat this stuff often.
This is quite a generous gift.
However, I heard that when the Venerable Master received this generous gift, his expression was quite unpleasant.
Chapter 142 The Amazing Granny Finally Appears
Three days have passed since the Ancient One's funeral.
Lin Bei was sitting in the main hall, drinking tea and looking at the list in his hand. He skipped over the gold, silver and gemstone items.
These things were no longer anything in Lin Bei's eyes; they were merely considered decent materials.
Whether for casting spells or for scientific research, it's a good choice, especially since gold seems to have decent physical properties.
There are also some magical artifacts, but they don't have many uses. In short, they have impressive-sounding names, but their actual effects are just fancy stuff.
People would keep truly good things to themselves or use them themselves; they wouldn't present them as gifts on the spot.
Take, for example, the Ring of Purgatory, an exquisite gilded bronze bracelet. Its function is to summon a little demon from Purgatory. Moreover, once summoned, the little demon is unruly and ordinary people simply cannot deal with it.
If it were given to apprentice monks, it might backfire and cause harm.
However, as the saying goes, even a piece of toilet paper has its uses. Although it may seem a bit fancy, it can demonstrate its true value as long as you find the right way to use it.
For example, you could treat it as a monster refresh bracelet.
This will give the apprentice mages some practical experience, and the slain infernal imps also contain a lot of usable materials.
Another example is a celebratory battle.
A short stick shaped like a magic wand can unleash random illusionary effects, such as fireworks, creating a spectacular scene. However, it's less useful for combat than a brick you pick up at random.
However, it's still very useful for hosting events to earn money.
Especially those large-scale events.
Neither of them requires any cost.
It's smokeless and non-toxic, just some lighting and special effects; it poses absolutely no harm to the environment.
It can greatly improve the living standards of the mages.
Just as I was watching, the monk Hamil walked over.
With a serious expression, he said, "The Kree Empire's fleet is making unusual movements. It seems they're heading our way."
Lin Bei raised an eyebrow and said, "Haven't they heard of the Supreme Mage's reputation?"
“Uh…” The mage Hamil shook his head silently and said, “They are a technological civilization and have never been very fond of so-called magic.”
Lin Bei flicked the list in his hand and said, "Didn't they give any gifts?"
Master Hamil thought for a moment and said, "I remember sending out an invitation, but they didn't respond."
Lin Bei nodded and said, "Then I don't need to be polite to them."
By the way, have you figured out their purpose?
Master Hamil frowned and said, "It should be for the Skrull refugees hiding here. The two empires have been at war for years, and now the Kree have the upper hand. They want to eliminate some threats."
However, they probably wouldn't dare to approach openly.
After all, we're not pushovers either.
Lin Bei nodded, and then felt someone calling his name.
"Alright, I'll keep a close eye on this."
Master Hamil nodded, then suddenly said, "By the way, as the Sorcerer Supreme, you also need to compile some spellbooks and include them in the library."
This is also to enhance the cultural heritage.
Of course, this matter is not urgent; you can simply complete its compilation during your term of office.
Lin Bei waved his hand and said, "I know that. I'll get on it when I have some free time in a few days."
The requirements of the Venerable Hamil also illustrate the duties of a Venerable Master.
This concerns the entire mage community. The world is not static, and no one can predict the thoughts of those dimensional demons. Apart from those common dimensions, such as the mirror dimension, there are still too few spells that can be used in Kamar-Taj without paying a price.
In particular, they only grant authorization; the final interpretation of everything rests with those dimensional demons.
Only the Triune Vishanti lend at relatively low interest rates and the cost of repayment is very low, at most charging some energy loss fees.
What can we do when they're one of our own?
Most neutral dimensional daemons, out of respect for Vishanti, didn't go too far.
However, the destructive power of those spells was really quite something.
The most effective magic is still the dark magic, such as that of Sithon, the big shot who secretly compiled the "Dark Book".
The purpose of compiling spellbooks is to examine whether the costs of borrowing have changed, whether there are any loopholes to exploit, and whether previously discovered loopholes have been plugged.
Lin Bei thought for a moment and suddenly came up with a good idea.
These mages are excellent tools, far more useful than Hydra's agents.
Hydra's agents were essentially just tools; they couldn't compare to these mages who had mastered 'magic'.
These mages will be indispensable for launching the Main God Space project in the future.
Rather than letting other dimensional demons make a killing, it's better to work for yourself; you're much more generous than those dimensional demons.
We can just 'borrow' some of the techniques from a certain character who could fight two female superheroes.
After sending Master Hamil away, Lin Bei disappeared from the spot and entered his own dimensional space.
