Chapter 22 Meeting
Author: Forbidden Water Drops
Alban was obviously the one with the highest status among the three third-class apprentices. He pushed up his glasses and said, "In any case, Mr. Gary is welcome to join our ranks."
"As long as we abide by the rules between us, we are all friends."
"Besides, it's not easy for us to gather here today. We can avoid bickering or anything like that."
In this circle, Abel is a loner, and all other wizard apprentices are ostracizing him.
Li Wei silently complained in his heart: No wonder Abel's manor is isolated from the public, and he thinks that he is some kind of outsider who is isolated by others.
"It's rare to see so many people here. Why don't we select the people who will monitor the cruise ship today?"
Abel interrupted Alban's speech, he said impatiently.
Sean, a blond man with a burly figure, said disdainfully: "Last time, there was a big fuss, which made the meeting unable to proceed, and the person was not selected in the end?"
"Today is different from the past."
Abel didn't care.
Li Wei secretly smiled in his heart. Abel's original ally was the third-class apprentice of the Owen family. Because they had an accomplice who was from the Owen family, a local gangster, they had the confidence to fight two against three.
But after the Owen family evacuated, he was left alone.
His appearance made Abel see the possibility of opening up the situation, so he tried his best to win over himself.
"The work of monitoring the city lord's cruise ship and recording the route is very important. I hope everyone will not slack off."
Fanny's eyes were sharp as she scanned the surrounding first- and second-class apprentices. She naturally couldn't bother them, the third-class apprentices, to do things like monitoring the cruise ship themselves.
First-class apprentices and second-class apprentices will inevitably slack off, often fishing for three days and drying nets for two days.
"It turns out there is such a cause and effect."
Li Wei secretly thought in his heart.
If there was a wizard apprentice secretly monitoring the cruise ship, he would naturally not choose to sneak in, and he would not come to Bering City and join the ranks of this group of wizard apprentices.
The coincidences are intriguing.
Without Abel's interference, the meeting went smoothly.
After arranging their respective tasks, the wizard apprentices began to conduct some transactions with each other, and there was some prototype of a market.
Li Wei purchased several urgently needed materials from several wizard apprentices, but gained nothing more.
"How does it feel?"
Standing at the side of the hall, Alban, who did not participate in the transaction, remained standing there.
"There's nothing gained."
Levi said bluntly.
Levi's words did not seem to surprise Alban: "First- and second-class apprentices who put their promotion hopes in illusory treasures, there is no need to expect them to accumulate much."
"Even if they have good things, they will keep them to themselves and will not trade them."
Li Wei raised his eyebrows. The implication was that you have something good and you are willing to trade it?
On the fifth day, according to the order arranged by the third-class wizard apprentices outside Bering City, it was Li Wei's turn to sit inside Bering City and be responsible for supervision.
There is also a group of first- and second-class wizard apprentices who are responsible for monitoring the cruise ship at sea and keeping in contact with Levi at all times.
Levi was hiding alone on the clock tower of the castle of the Lord's family, having a bird's eye view of the entire Bering City. The sight of the Lord's castle was no worse than that of the Johnson family's castle.
Today, Alban asked him to meet here alone.
Levi said: "I am looking forward to your price, Mr. Alban."
The agreement between Levi and Abel was only a verbal agreement and was not mandatory in any way.
If Alban offers a price that appeals to him, Levi doesn't mind switching sides directly.
"I'm not like that stingy Abel who only talks verbally."
Alban's voice came from outside the bell tower.
"I have an advanced meditation method in my hand. I can give the first half to Mr. Gary first. After I successfully seize the Huangxing Jade, I can give the remaining half to him."
Alban offered his price, but he didn't expect that he still had a complete copy of Advanced Meditation in his hands!
Li Wei sighed:
"It's both the fruit of life and the advanced meditation method. Mr. Alban is indeed a blessing."
The spread of advanced meditation methods has always been strictly controlled by wizard colleges. When it is taught to third-class apprentices, they will first be required to sign a strict non-disclosure agreement. Under the witness of the scale of truth above the starry sky, no contract can be violated.
This is true for Levi, Alban, and Abel, the two third-class apprentices from the academy. The advanced meditation methods they obtained after signing the agreement cannot be passed on to others.
The Tian'en meditation method in Alban's hands was accidentally discovered when he was exploring a certain wizard's ruins. It does not have such restrictions, and it became his most important weight to win over the wandering apprentices.
"An advanced meditation method won't make me switch sides, I need something else." Levi showed a lack of interest. For a third-class apprentice from a wizard academy, advanced meditation method is not out of reach.
Li Wei's plan to deduce the advanced meditation method has been put on hold for a long time. After completing the Everlasting Frost Meditation Method and the Karma Fire Meditation Method, there has been no new progress. It is still too whimsical to try to deduce the wisdom of the ancient wizards based on just a few fragments.
The temptation thrown by Alban made him a little tempted. If he could get a complete advanced meditation method as a reference, it would undoubtedly bring a huge breakthrough to his research on advanced meditation methods.
Alban had already predicted it: "It seems that Mr. Gary doesn't know Abel well enough."
"Appreciate further details."
Li Wei raised his brows slightly. Listening to Alban's cryptic tone, he realized that there were many inside stories in Bering City that he didn't know about.
"Abel's strength is extraordinary, so we have no choice but to unite."
Alban told a story that was completely opposite to the version Levi heard from Abel.
Levi shook his head: "Your past grudges have nothing to do with me. If it is just a half-meditation method, I can only maintain neutrality while ensuring my own interests."
Alban thought for a moment and then replied: "I hope Mr. Gary keeps his promise!"
Half of the advanced meditation method was obtained so easily, which made Li Wei a little unbelievable.
"Is it the treasure of the Johnson family..."
Levi muttered to himself.
According to the information he has received now, various signs indicate that the probability of this treasure being real is not small.
As for why it has not been discovered, Abel and Alban gave surprisingly consistent answers, because the entire treasure has been in a state of movement and the exact location cannot be obtained.
…
In the manor where Levi lives, two days have passed since the transaction with Alban.
The chip has sorted out the content of this half of Tian'en Meditation Method and presented it.
There are many traces of blurring and deletion, so it is not easy to pick up cheaply.
Levi was not surprised at all by this.
