lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Magician Ryan!

Seeing that the burly mercenary took out another dagger exactly the same as the one that Ryan had taken out, everyone onlookers immediately talked about it, and the scene suddenly became noisy. A sharp voice in the crowd said: "Pike, was it the scar that killed your companion a year ago?"

The burly mercenary called Parker did not answer. He looked at Flanner, then at Ryan, and asked loudly and slightly suspiciously: "Who killed the Scar? This bastard?"

Flanner pointed at Ryan and said, "It's him."

"He?"　Pike made a skeptical voice and said: "Impossible, he is so young, so possible?"

At this time, some of the mercenaries surrounding him spoke: "Maybe they are a large mercenary group, what's impossible?"

Flanna elegantly gave a noble ritual of taking off his hat to the onlookers, saying: "Sirs, beautiful ladies. My next man is a businessman from the Dolock Chamber of Commerce, called Flanner."

The sharp voice just sounded again: "Pike, your wish has finally been fulfilled. With a chamber of commerce like Locke, how difficult is it to deal with a small scar?"

"No, it's not like that." Flanner quickly explained, "I pledge my merchant's credibility. The one who removes Scar of the Rogue and his five companions is the Mr. Lane by my side."

Hearing Flanner's words, the scene suddenly became chaotic. Almost no one would believe that the young boy in front of him had removed the "scar" that had been wanted for several years in the city of Elfa.

Seeing the faces of the people, Flanner was naturally aware of their thoughts, and he continued: "I am very honored to be adventurous with Mr. Lane. This time on the journey to the beautiful Alfa , We encountered the evil scar and his five accomplices. At the time I thought I was dead, I even prayed in front of the God of Light, asking for help from God. However, our Mr. Lane stood bravely In front of six fierce thieves, he used his power to get rid of the thieves that had caused trouble for Elfa for many years."

"Maybe you don’t believe it. To be honest, I didn’t believe it at the time, thinking that what I saw was an illusion, but I used my businessman’s credibility to assure everyone that my words were absolutely true!"

"Just rely on him?" Parker asked Flanner: "Scar, this bastard, once killed two of my companions, and I also took him a knife in the back, if it was not my companion who used the body Blocking that **** guy, I won’t be standing here today! Just like that, I also lay at home for three full days."

Speaking of this, Parker took out his soldier badge and pointed it to Flanner: "See if there are three daggers on this badge. This is the mark of the third-level warrior. I and my 2 The companions are all three-level fighters, and they are still defeated by that bastard."

Speaking of which, Pike pointed to Ryan with his hand and said to Flanner: "You said this little guy who didn't even grow his hair killed the scar with at least level five thief strength? You are yours. Are they all fools?"

Although his words were questioned by others, Flanner did not change his face and calmly said: "My friend, when you haven't listened to me telling the whole story, please be like a gentleman. Your calm and silence, okay?"

Ryan felt a little uncomfortable seeing this event getting worse, he pulled Flanner a bit, and whispered in his ear: "Okay, Flanner."

Flanner turned his head, smiled and whispered in Ryan's ear: "Ryan, you stand and don't speak, look at me. Don't worry."

Seeing Flanner giving himself a mysterious look, and then looking at the dozens of mercenaries around him, Ryan felt that he couldn’t really say anything on this occasion, so just listen to Flanner. Although the time between himself and him is broken, he still trusts Flanner's character and character, and believes that he will not harm himself.

Flanner said loudly: "Dear sirs, beautiful ladies. I’m going to uncover the mystery of the matter. This gentleman said just now," he said with his hand, and continued: "Scars at least It's a level 5 thief, and he has 5 accomplices. Even if his accomplice is a little worse than him, there is also level 4. How did our Mr. Lane defeat a group of evil **** alone?"

Speaking of this, Flanner paused intentionally, scanned the surrounding mercenaries with his gaze, and found that dozens of mercenaries were attracted by what he said, and he suddenly felt satisfied. The feeling, continue to say: "In fact, the answer is very simple, our Mr. Lane is a respected magician!"

"Wow~" When Flanner's words were heard, everyone was in a tumult.

Magic?

Young magician?

Can a powerful magician be one-to-six?

In countless legends of the continent of Eslar, there will be a magician. If it is not the protagonist, then he is also the protagonist’s most loyal friend, or the evil villain full of endless power in the story. In short, the magician is A group of omnipotent people with great powers. Since the young man in front of him is a mysterious magician, of course he can remove the scars that have harmed Alfa for many years. What's weird about this?

"Wait!" Parker stopped the discussion loudly. He pointed to Ryan and said to Flanner: "You said he is a magician, so why doesn't he have a magician badge on his chest?"

The mercenaries onlookers heard Parker’s words and thought it made sense: "Yes. Every magician will have a badge symbolizing his identity on his chest, just like the warrior badge taken out by a burly mercenary just now. . This boy doesn’t have it on his chest."

Flanner smiled and said: "This gentleman's observation is indeed very careful, and he deserves to be an excellent and experienced mercenary. But our Mr. Lane is an apprentice to a master. He came to Alfa this time. It is to complete the trial given to him by the teacher. Obviously, before our Mr. Lane completed the trial, he was a magic apprentice. And the magic apprentice does not need to wear the magician badge."

Flanner paused and said, "Of course, Mr. Lane’s teacher is a very kind master. He doesn’t care much about whether his disciples follow these etiquettes. If it is beneficial to Mr. Lane’s completion of the trial, I think Mr. Lane will not mind that going to the Magic Guild is based on his ability."

Through Flanner's explanation, the mercenaries onlookers accepted the fact that Ryan had removed the scar, and gradually dispersed.

Lucy recorded the approximate place where Ryan buried the Scar, and was going to send it to verify. If it can be confirmed, then the 50 gold coins for Scar's reward belonged to Ryan.

Ryan pulled Flannery aside and asked, "What did you do just now? Propagating this matter."

Flanner said with a smile: "Didn’t you say that you are looking for a group of partners to participate in the Royal Tournament? I give you momentum like this, and your reputation will pass through these mercenaries, so whether you find others or It will be very convenient for others to find you."

Ryan scratched his head and said, "It doesn't need such a big fanfare, right?"

Flanner stretched out a finger and said, "Ryan, you have never been a merchant, and you don’t know this kind of merchant’s common skills. The nuclei are transported to Jegnas City to be sold. If you just sell the magic cores, the competition will be fierce, and the natural profits will not be high enough. But we can promote this batch of wind magic cores in others by building momentum. Positioning in the heart. We can first hire an alchemist to make exquisite necklaces for these wind-type magic cores; then conduct a large-scale publicity to let others know that we have purchased a batch of precious goods from far away places, and vaguely Tell me a little about how precious these necklaces are. They have the characteristics of keeping women comfortable, slowing down aging, and arousing the curiosity of others. Then a grand auction will be held and the necklaces will be auctioned publicly. In the public bidding, The price of the necklace will be raised higher and higher, and our final income will be dozens of times the original income. Moreover, as long as we conduct a few such high-grade auctions, our reputation will be opened. Our name will be Become synonymous with high-quality goods, every piece of jewelry we sell will be sought after by others. This is the role of momentum."

Ryan was stunned. He had never heard of such business practices. In Dense Fog Town or Takri Town, the smartest businessmen just shouted a high price first, and then bargained with customers. Slowly reduce the price until the price drops to the price that he originally intended to sell, which is as deep as Flanner said. Ryan scratched his head again and said, "Can this necklace made of wind magic core really delay aging?"

Franner smiled slightly and said: "It's very simple. When we were making the necklace, we specially carved a magic circle on the necklace so that the person wearing it could keep the head awake. And every one took a high price to photograph The ladies of the necklace will enjoy a kind of pleasure called vanity in the envy of others. A happy mood and a clear mind, isn't this the best and easiest recipe for slowing down aging and prolonging life?"

Ryan felt that his head couldn't turn around a bit, so he scratched his head again, not knowing what to say. After holding back for a long time, a sentence came out: "Flanner, I don't know if you are a qualified businessman. But I think it's a shame that you don't become a bard with your eloquence."

A mist appeared in Flanner's eyes. He sighed and said in a low voice, "If I were not born in this family, maybe I would really become a bard who wandered the world."

Ryan didn't hear what Flanner said clearly, so he asked: "What did you say?"

Flanner smiled at Ryan, and changed the subject and said: "Let's go, Ryan. Don't you plan to go to the Magic Guild to see it?"

Ryan nodded, agreed with Flanner, and said, "Okay, let's go see it together."

Just walking out of the door of the mercenary guild, a doorman wearing the pride of a red and blue lion ran towards Flanner and saw Flanner hurriedly said loudly: "Master Flanner, the Chamber of Commerce monitors When it's there, he invites you to see him immediately."

Flanner was shocked when he heard the news, turned his head and said to Ryan, "Ryan, it seems that I can't accompany you to the Magic Guild."

Ryan didn't want Flanner to delay Flanner himself too much time for his own affairs. He comforted Flanner and said: "Go ahead, I'll go alone."

Flanner patted Ryan on the shoulder and walked into the carriage. The coachman waved his whip and slammed it on the horse's ass. The horse screamed and ran.

Lane watched Flanner's carriage drive out of the long street before turning around and walking towards the Wizarding Guild. The Magic Guild in Elfa City is right next to the Mercenary Guild, and Ryan saw it when he arrived.

The Magic Guild is a seven-story tower-shaped building, which seems to be a common building shape for all magicians on the Islar continent. In fact, the magic guild in every city is a magician tower. Ryan heard Dranai talk about this kind of building. He knew that the magician tower was very troublesome when it was built. He would use a large number of magicians to bless the magic in the raw materials, and would carve all kinds of magic in the tower. Array to prevent uninvited guests. Every magician who is allowed to enter the magician tower will have a laboratory of his own, in which various magical experiments are carried out.

Ryan approached the Magician Tower, gently opened the door, and walked into the Magic Guild.

Different from the spacious mercenary hall, the space inside the Mage Tower is very small. On either side of the door stood a huge iron golem. Although the iron golem has a rough appearance and ridiculous body proportions, like two chubby dolls, Ryan has heard Dranai say that this is the first line of defense for the Magician Tower. Under the spell of the master, the iron golem that usually stands still will pounce on malicious uninvited guests, tearing the enemy into pieces!

Seeing someone come in, an old man with gray hair and beard and wearing a magician robe stretched out and said in a slow voice, "What are you here for?"

Ryan didn't dare to neglect. No one knew whether the ordinary old man in front of him was a magician with powerful strength. Even if magic was aside, the old man in front of him was old enough to be Ryan's grandfather. Ryan said: "Hello, my name is Ryan, I'm here to do magical power evaluation."

The old man looked at Ryan, with a happy expression on his face, and said, "These years, there are fewer and fewer magicians. Last month, I didn't even have one evaluation here. It was really boring. "He stood up and said, "Come with me." After speaking, he led Ryan up the long stairs surrounding the Mage Tower.

Ryan followed the old man to the second floor of the Magician Tower. As soon as I walked up, I heard a grumpy voice: "Damn, I failed again."

The old man shouted at the floor: "You fellow, don't mess with your boring experiment, come here. Someone has come to test the magic power." Before the voice fell, a group of people made up of dense fog. The object floated over. The old man said to the pedestrian object: "Okay, let's get back to the original shape, don't frighten the children."

"Got it." The humanoid object murmured, and then an obscure spell sounded. After the spell was cast, the foggy humanoid object began to solidify gradually. One with messy hair, wearing a shabby one, many The old man in the magician's robe that hadn't been washed in the sky appeared.

The old man who brought Ryan up said: "Young man, my name is Fladimy, the president of the Magic Guild of Elfa;" Then he pointed to the old man who had just condensed the entity and said, "This guy is called Gillien. , Is the vice president of the Magic Guild of Alpha City."

Gill Lean looked at Ryan, and couldn't help shaking his head, and said, "He is too young. I think it would be good if he can pass the magic apprenticeship test."

Fladimy said: "Stop talking nonsense, we will start testing now." Then he said to Ryan: "Young man, according to the Wizard’s Test Code of the Wizarding Guild, I will first ask you which level Test."

Ryan thought for a while and said, "I have never done this kind of test. I don't know what levels are available?"

Fladimy explained: "The classification of our magic guild is very simple. Those who learn from the magician belong to the magic apprentice, but generally speaking, as long as a magic apprentice can skillfully cast three consecutive times, the simplest level Magic, such as magic missiles, is considered qualified."

Ryan said in his heart: "This magic apprentice seems to have no problem with me. With this magic missile, I can cast more than a dozen in one go."

Fladimy saw Ryan distracted, and said unhappily: "Young man, don't be distracted when I am talking."

Ryan felt very embarrassed and quickly apologized.

Fladimy reluctantly accepted Ryan’s apology, and continued: "After a magic apprentice is appointed, he will generally be promoted to a trainee magician, followed by a junior magician, an intermediate magician, and a senior magician..."

Gillion rushed to say: "But our Elfa City Magic Guild can only evaluate the highest level of the middle magician..."

Without finishing the words, Fladimy reprimanded loudly: "Shut up, you guy, I know these things."

Gill Lean was reprimanded by Flagimi, and he was very unconvinced. He confronted Flagimi and said: "You were only born a day earlier than me. Why do you always keep a straight face and teach me?"

Flagimi slapped Gillien on the head vigorously with his hand, and said, "I was born a day earlier than you, and I will always be your brother!" Then a large slang phrase came out of his mouth, and Ryan also said something. I don't understand, it's probably a dialect somewhere.

The younger brother Gillien almost couldn't lift his head when he was taught by his brother Fladimi. He aggrieved with his finger while standing next to Ryan, motioning to his brother that there is still an audience.

The older brother Fladimi looked down his brother’s fingers and found Ryan. Only then did he remember the purpose of himself and his brother here, and quickly stopped the hometown slang that was comparable to a long magic spell, and smiled embarrassingly at Ryan. , Said: "Well, where did we just say?"

The younger brother Gillien couldn't help but interject: "You just said the evaluation of the advanced magician."

My brother Fladimy opened his mouth and wanted to scold his talkative brother once again, but forcibly held it back, his face flushed. He said to Ryan, "Well, that's basically it. Which level of testing do you plan to perform?"
