C3 Journey
Li Xiaofei did not quite understand what was so great about such a broken brand. What magic gathering, what Heavenly Jade Fish, they all looked like. Andre and Philip turned the board over and over again, and finally remembered and asked Li Xiaofei, "Where did you come from?"
Li Xiaofei scratched his head, "I bought it."
"I bought it!" Andrew's eyes were about to fall out of his head. Li Xiaofei hastily waved his hand, "It was bought by Earth, Earth. An old man sold it to me."
"Old geezer, it must be one of us. Could it be Martin?" Ander shook his head. "There is no name on the plate."
Andrew returned the plate to Li Xiaofei, who held it in his hand, "About that, may I ask what is the use of this plate? Why are all of you so surprised? "
Andre looked at Li Xiaofei and walked towards the table with his hands clasped behind his back. He then lightly pointed at the red continent, "This is the Beast God Empire. In the sea here, there is a type of fish …"
In this world, every empire needed to build ships. However, the sea conditions here were extremely complicated because there were countless ferocious sea beasts. In the nearby waters of the Red Continent, there grew a type of fish called Heavenly Jade Fish. It was shaped like the carving on Li Xiaofei's plate, somewhat similar to a pig or a rabbit. This kind of fish was very special. They ate gold, so there wasn't much gold in the sea. As a result, this fish was very rare. After the fish ate the gold, the excrement it produced was a ball the size of a watermelon. Breaking through the outer layer of the ball, one would be able to find something viscous and golden inside. This was basically the convenience of a Heavenly Jade Fish, but it was also known as Golden Gum.
The peculiarity of the gold glue was that it could adhere to all kinds of substances, be they metals or non-metals. Moreover, the gold glue was absolutely insoluble in water, and it could not be diluted or corroded by water. More importantly, if the completed ship was coated with a layer of gold glue, the seawater would not corrode the hull, making it last even longer.
As a result, the Heavenly Jade Fish was treated as a treasure in every continent. After spending a large amount of money to buy back the Heavenly Jade Fish from the Beast God Empire, they had to be kept in a secret place. In order to ensure a stable income, the Beast God Empire only sold male skyfish, which prevented any country from reproducing. The lifespan of Heavenly Jade Fish was around eighty years. In order to build ships, countries had to purchase Heavenly Jade Fish from the Beast God Empire every few years, so the Beast God Empire was the wealthiest empire on the continent.
With the death of the Heaven Jade Fish, its corpse would not be wasted, because the Heaven Jade Fish had the same quality of bones as the jade. Jewelry made from the Heaven Jade Fish's bones were the materials that the upper class aristocrats loved. The invitation card used for the Mage Gathering was the same as the one carved from Heavenly Jade Fish Bone.
To be able to obtain this tablet meant that the status of this mage was very high. There weren't many people who could attend the gathering, and those who had this tablet were the symbol of their status. A corner of the sign was missing. It was exactly the same as the corner of the person's hand when they were going to the gathering. It was a method to check the token.
"Most people won't write their names on their tags, so this tag can't confirm who the owner is." Ander sighed.
"Yeah, not everyone can be like you, afraid of using other people's things." Philip teased Andrew while Andrew looked at Philip furiously, "Do you know how dirty other people's hands are? Do you know how careful I have to take care of my own things? If you want me to use someone else's item, you might as well kill me. Those who don't write their names will not be able to find their own item. Look at that brand, it just ended up in the hands of a rookie! This is the result of bad habits! "
Li Xiaofei looked at Andrew, thinking that this old man was definitely a virgin!
"Luck always falls on the lazy." Selina pouted and looked at the sign enviously. Li Xiaofei's anger was aroused by her, and he said loudly, "I also want to learn magic. This is my fate here. Something strange is going on! "
Selina gave Li Xiaofei a big supercilious look, but Li Xiaofei's words were acknowledged by Philip and Andre. Both of them had just tested Li Xiaofei's physique and found out that he could learn dual element thunder and fire magic at the same time.
The two old men whispered together. Li Xiaofei looked at Selina and walked up to her, placing his hand on the door post. "Beautiful lady, may I ask what blood type you are?"
Selina looked curiously at Li Xiaofei and asked, "What's the blood type?"
"It's the type of blood system. For example, I'm a Type B." Li Xiaofei shook his hair with a smile, blinking to make himself look purer than Gatsby.
"Is the [B] class high?" Selina was curious and Li Xiaofei was speechless. "About that, it has nothing to do with the rank. It's just to determine the type of blood."
"What's the use of classification that has nothing to do with levels?" Selina expressed her confusion. Li Xiaofei was not interested, but he still tried his best to explain, "It's related to personality. People with blood type B are very talented, while people with blood type A are very weird, and people with blood type AB are very annoying."
"Boring." Selina let out a cold laugh.
They turned around and looked at Li Xiaofei, "Li Jun, we have decided to accept you as our apprentice. You will become an apprentice and will follow us in learning thunder and fire magic. Are you willing?"
"I'm willing!" Li Xiaofei answered as if this was a wedding.
"In that case, please follow us to the end of the apprenticeship ceremony." Andre took out a small golden box. There was a golden chain attached to the box. Andre handed the box to Li Xiaofei. Li Xiaofei looked at Andre, while Selina shook her head and stood aside.
"Li Jun, open the box." Their glow appeared again on Philip and Andre's bodies. Li Xiaofei opened the box. Inside the box was a needle. It looked like a watch, but it did not have a scale nor did it leave.
"Please swear with us, that I will become an apprentice of the Holy Church, that I will abide by the Sacred Magic Convention, that everything I learned was created by the Holy Power, that I will use my life, my dignity, and my honor to swear by the God of Light, that I will never abandon the guidance of the God of Light, that I will never touch the evil arts of the dark energy, that I will spend my life promoting the greatness and compassion of the God of Light, and that if I break my oath, I will be willing to accept the punishment of the Divine Flame of the Holy Light." Andre and Philip solemnly said one sentence, and Li Xiaofei did the same. When he finished, Andre and Philip simultaneously took action. Two different colored rays of light shot into Li Xiaofei's box.
Looking at the box, Li Xiaofei felt that the people in this world were too easily agitated. Anything could cause them to shout and shout. He turned around to look at Selina doubtfully. Selina was no longer looking at him with contempt, but filled with shock.
"You really are a genius. During the admission ceremony, the Magister will open the door for the apprentices to enter the world of magic. This box represents the speed at which your cultivation has progressed, and you will fly over quality as soon as you've entered." You really are a genius, and during the admission ceremony, the Magister will open the door for the apprentices to enter the world of magic. Philip was extremely excited, "We need to get to the Church of Light as soon as possible. Selina, from today onwards, he will be your classmate!"
"What?" Li Xiaofei was both happy and sad, while Selina found it hard to believe, "He is just a beginner!"
"His rate of improvement is extremely fast. If nothing unexpected happens, he will surpass you in a very short period of time." Andrew looked at his beloved daughter, gently stroking her hair, "Daughter, don't look at him with such narrow eyes. You have to teach him well, he will become the pride of all magicians!"
"Yes, I will teach him well!" Selina turned her head and stared at Li Xiaofei. Li Xiaofei thought of many things, such as the Shaolin Monk taking water and washing clothes every day, or Cinderella scolding her for scrubbing the floor every day, or the little girl selling matches being starved to death on the street …
Li Xiaofei looked at Selina's smiling face. The more he looked at her, the more he felt like a stepmother.
After travelling for a month, Li Xiaofei's understanding of the world deepened. The soldiers that followed in the Mage's camp were not mages. They were ordinary people who were born without magic, so they could only practice their swordsmanship to increase their combat ability. They also volunteered to join the army that was protecting the Light Empire, becoming soldiers.
Due to Li Xiaofei's special bloodline, these soldiers were filled with respect and curiosity towards Li Xiaofei. Li Xiaofei was also curious about their swordsmanship, walking and stopping along the way. Whenever he had time, Li Xiaofei would consult Li Xiaofei about swordsmanship. A guard captain named Francis gave his sword to Li Xiaofei, patiently teaching Li Xiaofei swordsmanship.
After a month of learning, before entering the Church of Light, Francis sincerely said, "Li, if you learn swordsmanship, you'll be a very famous swordsman."
"Old partner, I will be learning sword techniques from you in the future!" Li Xiaofei patted Francis on the shoulder, and Francis shook his head, "Li, I'm not the best swordsman, that's all I can teach you. Li, I'm not the best swordsman, that's all I can teach you, and as long as you practice diligently, you'll definitely be able to surpass me.
The soldiers had to return to the military camp outside the Church of Light. Outside the gate of the Church of Light, Li Xiaofei bid Francis farewell. He patted Francis on the back and said, "Brother, I'll come drink with you another day!"
"No problem, Lee. I hope you succeed." Francis was also reluctant.
