Chapter 264 Grand Welcome Dinner
The next day, in the evening, Locke went to the gathering place of the Hellfire Club after finishing several projects at hand and his own meditation.
The location of the party was not in the port city, but in a public parlor belonging to the college next to the public plantation.
This seems to be specially prepared for celebrations and banquets in the college, and the facilities are very complete.
The interior is extremely gorgeous, so just to rent it for one night, you need to pay five hundred magic stones.
In the center of the Hellfire Club banquet hall, Locke held a glass of [Xingshen Ice Brew] wizard wine and toasted with the outstanding students of Harlan Vera present.
A large number of different types of wizard wine and delicacies made by seasoners were provided at the banquet. There were even more than a hundred wizards who came to participate in the banquet in person.
There are more, powerful wizards who are no longer in the school, chose to use magic projection to participate in this banquet, and used the projection to toast themselves from a distance.
These wizards who use magic projection to attend the banquet are generally first-level wizards.
They just toasted a glass of wine with Locke in a symbolic manner to give the protagonist of the banquet face, and then focused on communicating with other people who were also official wizards.
After all, they are all formal wizards who have graduated a long time ago. Being able to come over and have a glass of wizard wine with Locke is already a sign of respect.
The biggest purpose of these first-level wizards participating in the master gathering is to continue to exchange information with other official wizards in Harlan Vera's network, and even do some transactions on rare magic resources on the spot.
This is also one of the functions of the relationship network of wizard mentors.
Harlan Vera, with a smile on his face, exchanged experiences with the outstanding wizards who had graduated, and shared their achievements that these students had recently told him.
Harlan Vera sat at the main seat of the banquet. The two people sitting on his left and right were both senior first-level wizards, while Locke sat in the third seat next to his right.
This position seems to be the one customarily reserved for the titular protagonist in this kind of banquet.
Harlan Vera drank a glass of demon blood champagne and looked at an official wizard, his eyes lit up. "Really? Adrianna, have you been promoted from lecture mage to official wizard mentor at the Essosend Fireweaver Academy in the Sun Shadow Peninsula?"
Harlan Vera said with a smile: "The Essosend Fireweaver Academy is the top wizard organization in the Sun Shadow Peninsula wizard land. Congratulations."
"You really have the potential in this area."
"The next step is to develop in the direction of the chief mentor."
Adrienne smiled, picked up a glass of wizard wine, and greeted Harun Vera in return. "I still have to thank the teacher. If it weren't for the teacher's letter of recommendation, I wouldn't have been able to join [Essosend Fireweaver Academy] in the first place."
"The teacher's letter of recommendation played a big role in the beginning. Unfortunately, Dean Barzel has been busy recently, so he was very busy, but he still asked me to say hello to the teacher, and hoped that the teacher would not be angry."
Harlan Vera smiled and said: " It doesn’t matter, Bazel is already a second-level wizard. Of course he is busy and will not attend my banquet. You were able to join the Fire Weaver Academy because he used his influence.” "He is my proudest student. I still remember that no matter what teaching plan I assigned him, he could complete it perfectly."
“Rather than saying that I am teaching him, it is better to say that he is testing the limits of my teaching ability.” Harlan Vera smiled and said: “Teaching students like this is really challenging, and it is also my favorite thing.”
The wizards present fell into silence for a moment.
Obviously, everyone has remembered the teaching method that Harun Villana constantly raised the requirements for them. Even they feel dizzy and scared when they think about it now.
They are now wizard mentors themselves, and they rarely ask their students in this way.
But it is hard for them to imagine that there would be someone who would make Harlan Vera's teaching method feel powerless.
What kind of super genius is that?
Harlan Vera looked at a formal wizard sitting across the round table and said with a smile: "Anthony, I remember that you went to the [Land of Six Towers] to develop your career as a wizard. I didn't know any formal wizards there. You are the first formal wizard among our sect to go to the Land of Six Towers."
"In the future, if I have any students who need your help, you must help me, such as writing letters of recommendation or something."
"I don't know what the land of six towers is like. I haven't been there much yet."< br/>
Wizard Anthony smiled. It was obvious that he had just become an official wizard not many years ago, so when he heard the stern and majestic teacher Harlan Vera speak to him in such a gentle and equal tone, he felt extremely satisfied.
Wizard Antony looked at Harlan Vera gratefully. "Of course, Teacher Harlan. Just as you have helped me, I will also help my juniors."
Wizard Anthony was a bit showy, so he talked endlessly about his experiences in the land of six towers.
"The Land of Six Towers is a place with six ultra-ancient wizard towers. The six ultra-ancient wizard towers form a barrier that covers the land of wizards. The most important magic resources in that place come from these six wizard towers."
"The Land of Six Towers has many wizard towers inside, and has very rich wizard tower construction technology. This is different from our southeast corner."
"Every wizard force has at least one wizard tower. The first time I saw the wizard tower, I was shocked."
“The wizard inheritance in the Land of Six Towers is dominated by the family, and the master-disciple relationship is relatively weak. This is mainly because most of the magic resources in the Land of Six Towers are controlled by a few fixed forces.”
Wizard Anthony kept talking, and the official fellow wizards at the banquet were also listening carefully. The banquet itself was a rare opportunity for them to exchange information.
"The wizards in the land of six towers are extremely conservative and refuse to change too much, so their magic technology except for the wizard tower has basically lagged behind our southeast corner region. It gives me the feeling that they don't seem to want to progress, they just want to maintain the status quo."
Wizard Anthony said: "If the Land of Six Towers hadn't been in need of a large number of potion masters for some unknown reason recently and offered a coveted salary, I wouldn't have gone there. But now, I just use the Land of Six Towers as my springboard, just a transit point for me to make money before going to the larger Wizarding Land."
Harlan Vera couldn't help but nod after hearing this. "I also think that with your talents, you should go to a better wizarding land. With your talents, staying in the land of six towers is not a bad choice, but it is not the best choice."
"It's good if you think so."
Locke has been listening silently. Although he is the nominal protagonist of this banquet, this banquet is essentially a rare opportunity for the masters of Harlan Vera to reunite.
The main body of communication is still with these first-level wizards.
However, you can get a lot of useful information just by listening, which is much better than forcing yourself to interrupt and not hearing anything.
From the exchanges between these seniors and sisters, Locke gradually learned that the southeast corner area is just an ordinary and remote wizarding place among many wizarding places.
But the southeast corner region is not the worst wizarding land.
For example, in the land of six towers, although the resources are richer than those in the southeast corner, and the magic tide is several gradients richer than that in the southeast corner, due to ideological reasons, the wizards there are stuck in their ways. Except for wizard tower technology, other technologies have seriously lagged behind the outside world.
Then, those family wizards were even more afraid to step out of the six-tower land. This made them fall into a vicious cycle, and something would happen one day.
Of course, Locke unexpectedly learned that there was no dark wizard alliance and no dark wizard in the land of the Six Towers.
It is a completely white wizard's land.
At the banquet, Harlan Vera suddenly changed the topic and pointed at Locke, saying: "Speaking of better wizarding places, your new junior brother's past wizard mentor, Witch Sophia, recently went to the Star Sea."
"The Star Sea, that is really a big place. It takes a lot of courage to go there."
