Du Wei didn't wait for him to finish speaking, patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm just asking casually. Oh, if I had known he would go back, I happened to have something I wanted him to bring back.
I forgot to tell the people in the castle when I set out. In this case, let's forget it."
Alpha frowned and didn't stop him. He just glanced at the cavalry lightly, and then personally led Du Wei into the carriage. Then someone led the horse over. Alpha didn't wear any armor, just a warrior uniform, and even
Without even carrying a sword, he rode his horse and walked at the front of the queue.
The Magic Guild of Roland Continent is located in the west of the imperial capital. There is a huge circular square here, and the Magic Guild is in the center of the square. Different from what Du Wei had thought before, the Magic Guild is famous for its legend and mystery.
The magician's base camp doesn't look "mysterious" at all.
A circle of tall white pillars was erected around the square, forming a diamond-shaped pillar as a whole, forming a magic circle that provides lighting all year round. Even in the dark, the Magic Guild is brightly lit. It is said that this
The light of the magic circle has never been extinguished even a day from its establishment nine hundred and sixty years ago to today. The flame of magic is eternal and represents the endless prosperity of magic civilization in this world!
At the same time, due to the transcendent status of the Magic Union, even during the war on the continent and during the two turmoils the empire experienced, no force dared to provoke the Magic Union.
The carriage slowly drove around the square and slowed down. There were six passages in different directions above the square, leading to a tall six-pointed star building in the center of the square.
If you take a bird's eye view from the air, you will find the circular square on the periphery. Coupled with the solemn Magic Guild-themed building in the square, it just forms a very standard hexagram pattern.
Du Wei and his party entered from the lower left corner of the "Six Pointed Star". In the square, Du Wei got off the carriage, and then surrounded by the guards of the Luo Lin family, Du Wei entered the pure white main building of the six pointed star.
.
The main building of the entire Magic Guild only has three floors, but it is in the shape of a patio. In the center of the six-pointed star is a slightly smaller square. In the center of the square is a tall tower, only 30 meters taller than the imperial capital in the palace.
The tall white tower is a little lower. According to some records that Du Wei has read, the height of the Magic Guild's tower is exactly eighty-eight meters.
After getting off the carriage, next to the main building, there was a row of very simple rest rooms. Alpha glanced at Du Wei and smiled: "Master, it should be very safe here. Just go in and I will
Wait here."
Duwei glanced at Alpha: "You won't go in with me?"
Alpha smiled slightly, but there was a hint of pride in his eyes: "Master, you have forgotten. I am a warrior!"
On the continent of Roland, although martial arts and magic have a long history, due to the prosperity of magic civilization, martial arts have been suppressed by magic for thousands of years.
Under normal circumstances, magicians of the same level are more effective than warriors of the same level in actual combat. For example, when Du Wei encountered an assassination on the road, a Clark mage could summon an undead warrior.
He easily killed several powerful assassin samurai.
Magicians can use magical power to drive various miraculous powers of magical and powerful magic elements, which is something that samurai who simply rely on their own cultivation power cannot compete with.
Although, according to the usual theory, magicians are good at long-range attacks, while warriors are good at close attacks. However, it seems that from the perspective of the times, long-range attacks are very powerful and represent the trend.
Although magicians' close attacks are considered to be their biggest weakness, magic civilization can always find some ways to make up for it. For example, Master Clark's summons of "Necromancer", a terrible death creature, can provide close combat with magicians.
For personal protection, others can also use some defensive barriers and other magical means to make up for their own weaknesses.
All these factors add up to give magicians a huge advantage over samurai in comparisons of the same level.
If it weren't for the fact that training a magician is too difficult, and the training of the warrior class is much easier than that of a magician... I'm afraid the status of the warrior class would be even more embarrassing.
After all, even if an ordinary person is less talented, he can still practice martial arts as long as he works hard. Even if he cannot reach a high level, it is not impossible to become a low-level warrior.
But magic is different. If you don't have magic talent, you will never become a magician in your life, and you won't even be able to pass the lowest level of first-level magician!
Therefore, although the power of magicians is huge, the difficulty of training has caused a bottleneck in this profession. The number of magicians is rare, which makes the samurai system always inferior. Fortunately, the number is huge, and it can vaguely compete with magic.
Fight it a little bit.
However, the status is different after all.
For example, the Magic Guild can be compared with the Temple and is considered one of the most powerful forces on the continent.
In comparison, the so-called "Knights Association" is far inferior in terms of momentum. The loose management and being suppressed by the magic union have made the Knights Association's status even in the imperial capital far inferior to that of
Magic Guild.
However, the samurai still have their own pride after all. As a senior samurai, Alpha strictly abides by the dignity and ethics of his senior samurai...
On the continent of Roland, the high-ranking warriors have a life creed that is almost like a motto, and they don’t know when it was passed down.
"Samurai, don't join the Magic Guild!"
Of course, with the decline of the status of the samurai system, there are now gradually fewer people who abide by these ethics. Only some advanced samurai who have practiced profoundly will continue to abide by these creeds. And some ordinary samurai, due to the pressure of survival,
I have long forgotten these prides...
For example, in order to make up for their own close combat abilities, some magicians even recruit some warriors as close bodyguards. In fact, during battle, having warriors around to protect them can also greatly make up for their shortcomings in close combat.
And those warriors recruited as followers by magicians are often looked down upon by high-ranking warriors like Alpha.
Of course Du Wei knew these allusions, so Alpha refused to enter. Du Wei understood what he meant and didn't say much.
Afterwards, Du Wei tidied his clothes a little and walked into the main six-pointed star building.
Du Wei was slightly surprised that the door to the Magic Guild... actually had no door!
The "doorway" seemed empty, but there was no door panel. As I walked past, I could faintly feel a wave of magic power scanning around me. The bachelor of magic badge worn on Du Wei's chest immediately triggered the reaction, and then that
Only then did the scan of a trace of magic wave fade away.
Du Wei knew that this was probably the magic circle of the Magic Guild. Although there was no "door", not just anyone could enter the Magic Guild!
Only formal magicians, wearing the magician badge they carry, can enter the gate of the magic union!
Of course, there are very few magicians on the mainland. There are only a few hundred genuine magicians in the whole continent. In such a huge magic union, there must be someone to do ordinary work. Most of those noble magicians are addicted to research.
, daily work needs people to do it. This has led to the emergence of a new group of people in Roland Continent who are on the edge of the profession of magicians.
Magic Apprentice.
Such people often have a little more magical talent than ordinary people, but they are unable to become a magician. Even a first-level magician is very difficult. Such people are often recruited by magicians to become assistants and apprentices, which are actually similar to servants.
Such work.
In addition to magic apprentices recruited privately by magicians, there are also many magic apprentices officially recruited by magic unions in branches of magic unions across the mainland. These people undertake many internal daily chores in magic unions, such as
The preservation of files, the repair of magic materials, etc.
Du Wei walked into the main building of the Magic Guild and immediately felt something different.
Here, no building materials can be seen on the ceiling above the head. The ceiling is a void, with some floating clouds faintly floating on it. Among the floating clouds, the sun, moon, and stars are all shining with their own light, forming a
A magnificent and strange scene. Of course, this is also a scene created by magic.
Everyone who could be seen walking around was wearing magician-style robes.
Of course, the colors are different.
Low-level and mid-level magicians wear gray robes, and high-level magicians wear white robes. Most of the ones wearing silver robes are magic apprentices.
In the hall that Du Wei walked into, most of the people around him were magic apprentices wearing silver robes. Occasionally, one or two magicians in gray robes could be seen. As for the white robes, they were all senior personnel in the magic union.
, naturally not walking around in the hall.
Du Wei was wearing a black robe, which immediately attracted many surprised looks.
