Chapter 16: Celebrate with me

"Is it so powerful?" Lao Xie was shocked when he heard this. Lao Xie knew the skills of the old mage. If he could only reach the ninth level, it would be a problem whether Lao Xie could reach the fifth level now!

"Of course it's true!" Lilith immediately smiled.

"So?" Lao Xie decided not to discuss this issue anymore and said instead: "Then tell me about the situation around him!"

"Okay, young master!" Lilith then began to explain to Lao Xie.

It turns out that the magic tower where Lao Xie is now located is located on the top of a mountain. The magic tower is surrounded by a circular noble castle. This castle named after the Stephen family covers an area of ​​several miles and is built with a tall and majestic, magnificent, combining practicality and ornamentality. It circles the entire mountain top and strictly protects the magic tower.

But what surprised Lao Xie was that there were not many people in this castle that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. To be precise, only the old mage and Lao Xie existed. The entire castle was empty, and only some puppets were responsible for cleaning. As for why this was the case, Lilith's answer was that the old mage liked purity during experiments, so he did not like others to live in. In fact, this has almost become a tradition of the Stephen family. Unless there were special circumstances, this castle had almost never lived in hundreds of years.

As for the outside of the castle, it is the highest institution of the Griffon Kingdom and the location of the Noble College. The entire Noble College occupies half of the mountain, and the front of the mountain is all the places of the Noble College, about a radius of dozens of miles.

The Noble Academy is divided into three branches, and the top floor is the Magic Academy, where almost all magic apprentices in the country are there, but that's the case, and the number of people is still pitifully small, and there are only a few thousand teachers.

The middle class is the aristocratic etiquette college. The thousands of people studying here are all scum among the children of the aristocratic. They have neither the talent of magic nor the talent of warriors, so they can only learn painting, etiquette, arithmetic and other subjects here, and fortunately they have a way out when they become adults.

As for the lowest level, the Fighter Academy, with a population of nearly 10,000, specializing in teaching various combat skills. Whether it is a nobleman of all sizes or some common people, as long as you have the talent to become a warrior, you can get further studies here.

Due to the constant wars on the mainland, every country attaches great importance to the development of high-end combat power. This is why this academy was found. Magicians and fighters who know how to fight are undoubtedly at the highest level. Although their number is small, the combat power that bursts out is definitely not something that ordinary people can use the tactics of the sea of ​​people to level up.

Therefore, the Griffin Kingdom stipulates that no matter who is a child, even if he is a slave, as long as he has magical talent, he can directly remove the whole family from his slave status and send him to the Magic Academy for further study for free. Once he becomes the lowest level magician, he can be named a noble.

People with warrior talent are more pitiful. They can change their identities, but they cannot benefit their families. But no matter what, the implementation of this measure has led to a large number of outstanding talents entering these two academies for further study every year, and the Empire has indeed given these talents the best treatment. Not to mention, just half of the five Dharma Saints and four sword Saints in the Empire are from civilians. It is precisely because of this unconventional measure to promote talents that the Griffon Kingdom stands out from many competitors and eventually becomes one of the overlords of the human world.

In addition, Lao Xie also learned that this academy is in the suburbs, but it is not far from the capital Griffin City, and is only about ten miles away. Many noble children can go home on holidays. The Stephen family obviously also has a huge mansion in the capital.

After listening to these introductions, Lao Xie pondered for a moment and said to Lilith: "Okay, that's all for today. Please help me get some wine and meat down there. I'm afraid that if I don't show up again, there will be a riot there!"

"Rust?" Lilith immediately said in confusion: "I'm sorry, Master, I don't quite understand what you mean." Obviously she didn't know what was happening below.

Lao Xie was naturally too lazy to explain to her, and said vaguely: "You just need to send a large amount of wine and meat. Oh, by the way, there should be enough wine and meat here, right?" He was worried that there were few people here and people would not prepare.

However, Lilith immediately said: "No problem. There is a large amount of food here for a long time, which is enough for thousands of people to use for a long time. I will prepare it for you immediately!"

"Okay!" Lao Xie nodded, then stood up and said, "I'll go down first, you can prepare too!" After that, he left.

"Yes, young master!" Lilith agreed hurriedly.

Back in the basement where he had lived for more than ten years, Lao Xie saw the little brothers who were still queuing up at first sight. He smiled slightly and waved his hand, "Okay, just sit down, and lie down when you should, don't be so restrained!"

When they heard this, the group of little brothers gradually dispersed, but they did not go far away. Instead, they looked at Lao Xie with anticipation.

The eccentric leader Kaz came over and asked respectfully to Lao Xie: "Master, have you gained anything this time?"

Lao Xie naturally knew what they were worried about, and smiled slightly and said, "Of course there is something to gain. I have already defeated the old guy, and he promised to give me freedom!"

"Roar~" After hearing this, the group of little brothers all roared excitedly. The excitement from the heart was as if they were free, which really touched Lao Xie.

Lao Xie waved his hand to stop their howls, and then smiled faintly: "Don't worry, my freedom is equal to your freedom. Now I have discussed with the old guy. I will find you a world that belongs entirely to your own! Let your free life, and you will no longer have to worry about being persecuted!"

"Roar~" Now, the little brothers screamed even more, and the monsters burst into tears even more excitedly. Lao Xie knew their mood, so he didn't stop them and let them vent.

After a long time, these guys gradually became quiet. At this time, Lilith sent some servant puppets to bring a large amount of wine and meat. So Lao Xie called everyone to eat and drink. Whether it was a man bull, a two-legged flying dragon, or even a magic spider, they were very interested in the cooked meat made by humans. What surprised Lao Xie the most was that they all fell in love with the sweet drink and red wine.

Seeing the red wine that was drunk by them, Lao Xie felt amused and crying. However, Lao Xie did not stop them. Wasn’t it just some wine? Although Lao Xie knew that the wine must be valuable, Lao Xie was always very generous to his younger brother. So he not only did not stop him, but also asked Lilith to get more and make sure to let them drink it happily. In this case, the large group of younger brothers ended up almost all drunk. Only Lao Xie and a dozen monsters who didn’t like wine were still awake, and even the magic explosion spider crawled on the ground and slept soundly.

The next day, the old mage woke up and got the list from Lilith. He jumped out of bed with anger. He called Lao Xie to the front without changing his pajamas and cursed: "You prodigal son, you actually feed my wine to the monster? Damn, I drank thirty barrels of good wine in one night. Do you know how much it is worth~"

"A stingy guy, isn't it just a few buckets of cat pee? Just because of your stingy look, I know that you will definitely be poor for the rest of your life!" Lao Xie said with disdain.

"You bastard!" The old mage was almost crazy by Lao Xie's anger. If it weren't for his request, he would have called him with lightning. Finally, he suppressed the fire, and the old mage roared: "From now on, your pocket money will be gone. When will you compensate me for my wine? When will you say it!"

"Tsk!" Lao Xie sneered directly and said, "I have never seen the dime you gave me so much!"
