Chapter 698 You May Not Believe It, but He Did It First
In Purandar, even a magic apprentice will be respected by people in many places, because mastering the power of magic means mastering the channels to the top of society.
This situation became even more exaggerated after Jean formed the Silver City and gathered the magicians in the human kingdom.
Because the number of magicians wandering outside the Silver City has become extremely rare, although many nobles want to win over some magicians to become their own power, they have no way of doing so.
Wild mages became the only choice.
Although these wild mages master few spells and even receive various magical inheritances, they are not orthodox magicians at all, but they are talented.
Unfortunately, it is also difficult to find traces of the wild mage.
The alchemy family like Hohenheim, which has been passed down for thousands of years, mastered magic even before the emergence of the Silver City, so of course they cannot be regarded as a wild mage family. They are a quite orthodox magic family with a complete inheritance.
Even in this kind of magical family that has been passed down for thousands of years, family members are generally only silver-level or even gold-level. If any family member can be promoted to the grand master level, he will already have the qualifications to enter the Council of Elders and become an upper-class person in the family, and obtain more. Many resources.
In the Hohenheim family, which has been passed down for thousands of years, only the ancestor who founded this family has reached the legendary level. Today, the most powerful fighting force of the Hohenheim family is just an extraordinary elder.
That's why Garfield was so shocked: he didn't expect that just one of Angus's apprentices would have supreme strength!
That is the supreme level that is only one step away from the legend!
A supreme magician, no matter which country or race he is in, can achieve an enviable and lofty status. With such unlimited potential and brilliant future, he is actually willing to become Angus' apprentice?
If he had such a talent, Garfield thought, even if Angus was a legendary mage, he would not necessarily be willing to abandon those status and resources to become his apprentice.
who is he?
At this moment, Garfield even forgot about Alphonse, who was severely burned by the rebounded fireball, and stared at Tang En, looking up and down.
Never seen or heard of it.
If such a powerful magician appeared in the human country, he would definitely have heard about it. Unfortunately, this person's face was ordinary and without any features.
"Your child seems to be a little irritable."
Angus glanced at Alphonse sadly, and with a wave of his hand, the flames on Alphonse's body were extinguished.
"Take him for treatment as soon as possible, as time may leave scars."
"It was Alphonse who was rude."
Garfield came back to his senses, shook his head repeatedly, and asked the expressionless attendants next to him to carry Alphonse back. The doctors from the Hohenheim family would help him with preliminary treatment, and then drink a bottle of healing potion. Basically, he would be cured tomorrow. It'll be fine.
Garfield looked at Tang En: "What is your name?"
"You can call me Norberti."
Tang En spread his hands and said, "Sir Garfield, he was the one who made the first move."
Tang En was right, Garfield was not blind, he saw that Alphonse made the first move.
But in other words, even if Tang En made the first move, Garfield didn't dare to have any temper - he was a supreme magician, and one person could easily wipe out most of the Hohenheim family.
If he's patient, he can even destroy the entire Hohenheim family by himself.
In front of such a strong man, all reasons, arguments, and grievances are invalid and can only be kept in the heart.
Of course, the Hohenheim family, which has been inherited for thousands of years, is not a persimmon that can be manipulated by others. They still have some trump cards, but they will not use those trump cards until a critical moment. If possible, try not to get into a fight with the other party.
"Excuse me for my blindness, but I have never heard of a time when a supreme magician named Noboti appeared in the human kingdom."
Tang En shrugged: "Then you have seen it now."
Garfield was speechless.
Angus said casually: "Your Excellency Norbert is a good friend of Jean. It is almost certain that he will be promoted to legend with his talent."
Angus' casual words startled Garfield.
Will definitely be promoted to legend! ?
Even Jean, the Lord of Stars and Moon, thinks so highly of him! ?
When did such an incredible talent appear in the human kingdom! ?
"Oh, right."
Angus pointed at Ilia and said, "This is Ilia, Noboti's sister. If nothing else happens, she will be promoted to legend before she turns eighteen."
"Before the age of eighteen!? Promoted to a legend!? How is this possible!? Even if you are a genius - no! Wait! Is it difficult - is it -"
Garfield suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Illya in disbelief: "Magic affinity body!?"
As a magical family with a thousand-year heritage, Garfield certainly knows the powerful effects of magic affinity bodies. Every magic affinity body in history has been promoted to the legendary realm without exception.
It’s been a long time since there was a magical affinity body in the human kingdom. I didn’t expect to see one today!
Garfield's eyes immediately became fiery, and the stiff expression on his face became much more enthusiastic. If it were her, she might be able to meet the request!
"Master Angus, please come over here. Let's sit down and have a cup of tea first, and then we can chat slowly."
Tang En and Angus were both a little confused. What was going on with this guy?
You were unwilling to let them in just now, and now you invite them in again?
Garfield took Tang En and the others to the living room, and the maids immediately served high-quality black tea and pastries. Although these items were not as good as those from Ellington, they were still quite expensive.
Garfield's obvious change in attitude made Angus smile subtly, and he looked at Tang En, and both of them seemed to understand something.
After Tang En and the others took a sip of hot tea, Garfield broke the silence first: "We, the Hohenheim family, have long admired Master Angus's strength and reputation in alchemy, and we have always wanted it. I want to share my knowledge about alchemy with you, but unfortunately the master has been missing since the end of the war, and I can’t find him at all. I didn’t expect that I would have the opportunity to sit down and talk with the master today, and I’m really pleased.”
"Your Excellency, you are exaggerating. Alchemy is a very profound skill. On this path, even I dare not say how much I have mastered it. I want to communicate with each other and verify each other's ideas, so that we can make progress together."
"The master is right, and this is what I think too. I think the more people walk on this road, the more areas we can explore and discover, and the more things we can master."
"Indeed, I also admire the accumulation of alchemy of the Hohenheim family that has been passed down for thousands of years. I also need to ask you for advice on many things."
Garfield and Angus complimented each other a lot, and after going around in circles, the topic finally seemed to get back to the topic.
"I wonder what Master Angus has to do with his visit to the Hohenheim family this time?"
Angus smiled slightly and said meaningfully: "This matter has something to do with your ancestors..."
Tang En took out Illrus' royal cane: "Your Excellency, you should know what this is, right?"
"The royal staff of Illrus?"
Garfield took a look and said, "Why is it in your hands? It should be in the treasury of the Illrus Empire now."
"Norboti is a good friend of Prince Regent Tang En of Illrus. For some reasons that are inconvenient to explain, he handed over the royal cane to His Excellency Norboti."
Angus smiled and said: "And our purpose this time is exactly related to the royal cane."
"You want to fix it?"
As the contemporary patriarch of the Hohenheim family, Garfield certainly knew some secret information. After all, when the royal cane broke, it was impossible for the king not to ask them to try to repair it.
"Yes, His Majesty Prince Regent Tang En tried to repair this weapon. I think the Hohenheim family must have retained the precious information they left behind. That's why they troubled Sir Edward to bring us to you."
Angus tapped the table lightly: "You should also understand that if the royal cane is repaired with your help, it will be of great help to the reputation of the Hohenheim family..."
Garfield frowned. Illrus' royal staff was designed by his ancestors and successfully manufactured under the impetus of Emperor Gilad. It is the most powerful legion weapon in human history. To see the royal staff appear in front of him , it was impossible for him not to be moved. After all, it was likely to contain alchemy crystals that they didn't know about.
But it is impossible for them to repair this thing.
Now no one in the Hohenheim family dares to say that their alchemy level has reached the level of their ancestors.
"Although I want to help you, to be honest, my level of alchemy is far inferior to that of Sir Angus..."
"No, no, no, you misunderstood."
Angus shook his head and said: "We are not asking you to repair it, but we just need to refer to the information left by Master Hohenheim."
material?
Garfield's expression became even more troubled.
In order to protect precious information, one of the Hohenheim family rules is that no one is allowed to enter the library except core members of the family.
The reason why Edward could see those materials was because Alphonse did not exclude him and the family did not pay attention to him. Therefore, his identity as Garfield's son gave him the qualification to enter the library.
But now even Edward is not qualified to enter there.
However, Angus proposed to enter the library to read the information...
This put Garfield in a difficult position.
Angus is the number one alchemist in the world. His reputation must be sold, and if possible, he must be friends with Angus. This is very important to the Hohenheim family.
But the Presbyterian Church...
Garfield frowned.
