The Flaming Hand Mage Tower, West District, Royal City of Kalia. Every member of parliament has his own wizard tower, which is built at the expense of the parliament after he is promoted to member of parliament. The Flaming Hand is the name of Joseph's Mage Tower. The Mage Tower has six floors, and the tower body is hooked with a pattern of a huge hand burning with flames. Freddy ran back to the Mage Tower with a gloomy look on his face. Many players around who saw this scene stopped in their tracks. No high-level NPC can escape the detection of the Fourth Scourge, and the same goes for Freddy, but these players did not approach him to get close to him. ——Someone had tried it before, and after saying a few words, he was burned to ashes by Freddy. Freddy is an extremely violent and arrogant noble wizard who discriminates against all civilians and is very dangerous. In the zoning strategy forum of the Royal City of Kalia, Freddy has been tagged. "What's wrong with this 'Violent Fire Master'? Why does he look so ugly?" a player said cheerfully.
"Don't worry about it. Don't forget the mission we received. Investigate the cases of outstanding mages in the Flame Legion losing control of their arcane magic over the years!" The leading female player with the ID Yaomei said unhappily. "Yes, yes, Miss, you are right!" The three accompanying players nodded quickly. The three of them walked into the Mage Tower. No one noticed the four demons. There were many players in the Mage Tower. The first and second floors were open to players, where they could learn apprentice-level and basic fire spells. The three of them came to the second floor through the floating magic circle and found a wizard on the second floor. "Excuse me, is this the place to sign up to join the Flame Legion?" the demon asked softly. She looked around the room and saw a hook-nosed wizard sitting on a chair with a cigar in his mouth. He looked very rude. The wizard in the room raised his head and saw the four demons. "Yes, this is the registration office for the Flame Legion. Do you want to join the Flame Legion?" "Yes!" Yaomei nodded calmly. The mage opposite raised his eyebrows. As an elite legion under the parliamentarians, the Flame Legion usually only recruits students from the Arcane Academy. Of course, it also has a recruitment department in the Flame Hand Mage Tower to recruit mages who do not belong to the Arcane Academy. Many talented mages do not have the money to enter the Arcane Academy, and will be rejected even if they have good talents. If they want to learn higher-level spells, they can only choose to join the Mage Tower in the royal city and sign a contract to swear allegiance. "Not just anyone can join our Flame Legion." The wizard in the room smiled meaningfully. His gaze fell on the female player, and a hint of surprise and lust flashed in his eyes. Such a beautiful mage is rare. Feeling the gaze from the opposite side, Yaomei frowned. She was confident in her beauty and knew what kind of gaze that was. In real life, there would be people who looked at her like that. She looked down on such people, but she didn't expect that the NPC in the game would behave like that. Is this game too real? Yaomei endured the unhappiness in her heart, as the mission was more important. After all, it was just an NPC data! "I think we should meet the requirements to join the Flame Legion." The demon said. "Really? Then I'll have to test you carefully." The mage looked away and nodded, "Come with me!"
After saying that, the wizard stood up, walked over to the demon, sniffed it rudely, and then walked out the door, "Follow me." Looking at the wizard's back, Yaomei clenched her fists. Such a vulgar and obscene wizard should go to jail! She thought angrily in her heart, but still followed him. She and the three people around her were all mages from the Arcane Academy, majoring in fire magic. Later, because a new spell, the fire extinguishing spell, appeared in the academy, they switched to arcane magic. They came under the command of Helen, the commander of the Arcane Legion, and became Helen's students. Not long ago, when Helen was sorting out the information of the three major legions of the parliament, she discovered that every year in the Flame Legion, many talented mages who graduated from the Arcane Academy died from losing control of their magic. If it was just one or two occasionally, it wouldn't be a big deal, but it happens every year. Sometimes, three or four wizards die from out-of-control magic in a year. This caught Helen's attention. Coincidentally, at this time, Yaomei and others arrived and learned about this matter, and spontaneously wanted to investigate for Helen. Helen refused at first, but Yaomei wanted to help Helen investigate because she and others were extraordinary people and would not die. So I got this task. Yaomei thought that if she wanted to investigate the Flame Legion, she must join the Flame Legion. Following the mage in front, everyone came to a room deep in the mage tower. Opening the door, there is a vast training ground. The magic towers of extraordinary magicians are all equipped with space-folding magic arrays. This is the basics, but it was the first time for Yaomei and others to see it, and they all showed surprised expressions. "This is the training place. I will test you here." The magician leading the demon walked into the training ground. "My name is Fok Bailey, the logistics captain of the Flame Legion and a mid-level mage." "If you want to join the Flame Legion, you should know the requirements, right? You must be at least a beginner wizard, and master at least three beginner fire spells!" said the wizard who called himself Fok lightly. "We know." Yaomei nodded. This condition is actually quite harsh. Generally, a newly promoted junior wizard can only have one junior spell. For the natives of the game, three junior spells are already considered an experienced junior wizard. After all, unlike players, the natives need to actually learn spell runes to learn spells, while players only need to click. "Are you sure you want to take the test? The test fee is one gold coin, and there is no refund if you fail the test." Fok reminded. In his opinion, Yaomei and others were too young. Unless they were geniuses from the Arcane Academy, only experienced wizards could meet the requirements. Moreover, obtaining three different basic spells requires a lot of money. After all, spells are not something that can be found everywhere. "Well, if you feel that you can't take the test, I have a rule here to reduce the difficulty of the test. As long as you sign a contract with the Flame Hand Mage Tower and pledge allegiance to Master Joseph for the next ten years, the difficulty of the test will be reduced to only requiring you to demonstrate a spell." Fok continued, "Also, as long as you choose to be loyal to Lord Joseph, you can immediately obtain two elementary spells for free. If you can be promoted to the intermediate or advanced level, you can also obtain a corresponding spell for free." After saying that, Fok took out two contracts, and Yaomei took them and looked at them. The contents of the two contracts are basically the same, both of which describe what benefits one can get after joining the Flame Legion. As long as one joins the Flame Hand Mage Tower, one can learn spells at a very favorable discount and receive a certain salary every month. The benefits and salary of the ordinary contract were not as great as those of the loyalty contract, and there was no free spell benefit. It seemed that choosing loyalty was more cost-effective, but Yao Mei gave up the contract with better benefits without a second thought. After ten years of loyalty, he still had to obey Councillor Joseph's orders unconditionally? Isn't this equivalent to selling himself? Moreover, the contract cannot be terminated, while an ordinary contract can be terminated at any time, but a penalty must be paid.
"We don't need this." Yaomei refused directly. Hearing this, Fok frowned, and his expression turned cold. "In that case, then you can start the assessment." "Cast spells at me, at least three basic fire spells!" Fok walked to the side. Yaomei and the others looked at each other, and without hesitation, they started the assessment. Three basic spells were nothing to them. After all, they were players and could learn as many spells as they wanted as long as they had money. And the fact that Yaomei and the others could join the Arcane Academy showed that they had no shortage of money. Under Fok's surprised gaze, all three of them successfully passed the test. "Where do your spells come from?" Fok couldn't help but ask. "This should have nothing to do with the assessment, right?" Yaomei did not answer. Fok didn't ask any more questions, as the plan drawn up by Joseph did not include an investigation into the background of mages who signed up to join the legion. He took out four ordinary contracts and handed them to the four Yaomeis. "After signing this contract, you will join the Legion. From now on, you will need to obey the Legion's orders. I will give you the standard equipment of the Legion's mages." "After joining the legion, you are not allowed to quit within six months, otherwise you will be wanted by the legion. Or you can pay the penalty and come to me to terminate the contract." Fok added. Yaomei and others took the contract and signed it. Seeing the four people signed the contract, Fok nodded and took out a badge. The badge was in the shape of a hand with burning flames. "This is the badge of our Flame Legion. Please be sure to wear it at all times. If you lose it, you will be severely punished. This badge is a relic of law made by Lord Joseph. It has the ability to enhance the power of spells. You should know what the relic of law represents." Fok said seriously. Upon hearing the words "Law Relics", Yaomei and the others were stunned. They were not novice players and knew what Law Relics were. This is an extremely precious and rare item, how could it be artificially created? Yaomei took the badge and cast a detection spell on it. Name: Flaming Hands Emblem Category: Legal Relic (Fake) Introduction: A special item created by Joseph, a member of the Arcane Council, that contains the power of a mysterious relic of law. Effect: Wearing the emblem increases the power of your fire spells by 5%. Note: This emblem contains special powers. Wearing it for a long time may cause unknown effects. The demon's gaze fell on the last annotation, and her eyes lit up slightly. She had a hunch that there might be something wrong with this emblem. "Okay, in that case, you guys go register for your accommodation and get your equipment first, and then come back for training tomorrow. Don't think about escaping with the emblem. The emblem made by Lord Joseph has a tracking function!" Fok reminded again. Yaomei and the others nodded, took the emblem and left the training ground. After Fok got the red wizard robe equipment, he ignored them. Seeing Fok leave nonchalantly, the four Yaomei felt very strange. How could they just give them this kind of equipment and emblem? Although the emblem has a tracking effect, if they take it and run away, can they find the Flame Hand Mage Tower? "Miss, what should we do now?" asked a follower. Yao Mei thought for a few seconds, looked at the emblem in her hand and said, "Let's go find Teacher Helen first!"
After hearing Yaomei's words, the followers had no objection, and the four of them left the Mage Tower directly. …… On the top floor of the Mage Tower, in a dim room, Joseph stood in front of a bright red crystal. Flames were burning wildly in the crystal, and through the crystal he could see a heart beating constantly. Joseph reached out and touched the crystal. Flames continued to spread out from the crystal and burned his body. The veins on Joseph's forehead bulged, as if he was enduring some inhuman pain. Gradually, his broken arm was put back on, and the cut end began to move continuously, and finally slowly returned to its original shape. When the wound on his broken arm was completely healed, Joseph breathed a sigh of relief. He knelt on the ground and stood up after a long silence. Feeling his intact arm, his expression became somewhat ferocious. “Damn Li’l Stuart!” He roared angrily, and the crystal in front of him had dimmed a lot. “The power I have accumulated for so many years has been consumed just like this!” Joseph looked at the crystal in front of him and the heart sealed in the crystal and was silent for a long time. "Father!" A sharp voice sounded from behind. Joseph came to his senses, turned around and walked out of the room. Outside was his study. After Joseph came out, the secret door behind him slowly closed. His son's voice came from outside the study again, "Father, are you there?" "Come in!" After making sure that the secret door of the study was hidden, Joseph shouted outside the house. The door of the study was pushed open, and Freddy walked in with a crying expression on his face, "Father, you must help me!" Joseph frowned at his son's appearance, "What happened?" "Father, didn't you say that once you were elected Speaker, you would ask Speaker Lareina to marry Mea to me? Why is Mea already engaged to that Lear?" Freddy said unwillingly. When Joseph heard the word Lear, his expression darkened, and his arm, which had already recovered, inexplicably felt a phantom pain again. "Father..." Seeing that his father didn't speak, Freddy wanted to say something. "Shut up!" Joseph interrupted Freddy harshly, looking at Freddy's face full of disappointment. It's already this late, and my son is still thinking about proposing marriage. How could it be so stupid? Lareina found Lear. She knew Lear's strength, and just watching Lear cut off her arm said it all. What he has done in parliament over the years has already touched the bottom line of the royal family. I'm afraid Lareina will suppress him more strictly in the future. And her own son is still thinking about proposing marriage? "Don't mention Lalena and Li'er anymore, and don't go out anymore, just stay in the Mage Tower!" Joseph decided to confine Freddy to avoid causing more trouble for himself. (End of this chapter)
