1275 Joining
Lord Bohr’s face instantly changed into a smile, “Thank you for your hard work, Lord Fang Heng.”
“You’re welcome.”
Fang Heng called out, frowning slightly.
He had stolen more than 50 magic cores from the royal treasury. The numbers were right.
It would be barely enough to build a mage tower in the next three to four days. It would be a little troublesome to continue building it on a large scale.
Fang Heng looked at Ed again and said, “Mr. Ed, please continue.”
“Well, we wanted to try to make our own magic cores so we found His Highness Tang Mo to ask about the situation.”
“According to His Highness Tang Mo, there is only a small amount of magic cores left in the royal family. He can find a way to refine them himself. The formula has always been in the hands of the royal family and he has never touched it. However, the manufacturing of the magic cores required the cooperation of the Empire’s Mage Association. The president of the Mage Association should have the formula.”
“We will continue to investigate this clue. After the Empire split last night, the royal mage group was incorporated by Tang Wu and the Empire’s Mage Association is still unclear. His Highness Tang Mo went to find his uncle not long ago to contact the president of the Mage Association. However, based on the past attitude of the Mage Association, our hope of obtaining the formula from them is very slim.”
The team was in trouble again.
Li Xue realized the difficulty of collecting the magic cores was too great, and she was afraid that it would delay Fang Heng’s big plan, so she hurriedly told Ed to discuss it with Fang Heng.
Fang Heng nodded, but he felt a little strange.
Randolf, the vice president of the Mage Association, was a good person. They had worked closely together before. He wasn’t as difficult to get close to as Ed had said.
“Is the Mage Association really that hard to get in touch with? It can’t be, right?”
Surely not?
Ed thought to himself, “No way!”
People from the Mage Association were known to be difficult to get in touch with.
Ed sighed silently in his heart.
After all, Lord Fang Heng had been training in necromancy in seclusion and was not aware of the situation in the Empire.
Fang Heng looked at Chadwick, Lord Bohr, and the rest with some doubt.
“It’s indeed not easy to get in touch with.”
The other feudal lords also nodded in agreement.
“Lord Fang Heng doesn’t know. Ordinary mages are fine but the association’s higher-ups have always been arrogant. It’s difficult for us lords to say a few words to them. Only His Highness Tang Mo has a blood relationship with the vice president of the Mage Association. Otherwise, they wouldn’t even want to see us.”
As they were talking, a royal guard rushed forward to report,” Your Highness Mingyue, His Highness Tang Mo has returned. He is accompanied by the president of the Mage Association, Price, and the vice president of the association!”
What?!
Except for Tang Mingyue, everyone stood up from their chairs and looked out of the hall.
The President of the Mage Association, Price?
That mysterious big shot also came personally?
Did Her Highness Mingyue really have such a great reputation?
Shocked, everyone turned to look at Fang Heng and Tang Mingyue.
In the hall, only the two of them had indifferent expressions, as if this situation was normal.
Tang Mingyue was a little confused.
Did these people have to be so surprised?
She had read some information about the Mage Association, but the records on paper were not as personal as seeing it with her own eyes. She only knew that the Mage Association was a little arrogant.
Tang Mingyue nodded and said, “Invite them in.”
Soon, the guards brought Tang Mo and the group from the Mage Association into the hall.
The president of the Mage Association, Price, walked at the front.
Behind him, Randolph had a gentle expression on his face as he nodded at Fang Heng from afar. He said, “Lord Fang Heng, I know that you are very busy right now, so I took the liberty to disturb you.”
Price and the mage behind him did not pay much attention to Tang Mingyue and the feudal lords. They all focused their gazes on Fang Heng, revealing a probing gaze.
Was it him?
A great legendary mage who built a Tier 2 mage tower in the Empire in just two days?
So young?
Before the mage tower, the members of the Mages Association had already heard of Fang Heng’s name.
It was Fang Heng who discovered the teleportation magic array in the underground world and established a good relationship with the cave-dwelling beasts.
Apart from that, Fang Heng had also used long-lasting large-scale field magic to summon the sacred tree to defeat the entire barbarian army in the Land of Plague!
There were a few mages among the entourage. They all wanted to see Fang Heng with their own eyes.
After all, in the outside world, the sacred tree in the Land of Plague was rumored to be divine.
Rumor had it that Fang Heng was not only proficient in the study of necromancy, but also dabbled in the study of nature, elementalism, and even the sacred study.
“I won’t disturb you.”
Fang Heng also stood up to welcome him.
President Price sized Fang Heng up, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes. He asked, “Lord Fang Heng, we heard some rumors that you will be building a large number of ghost towers on the Empire Continent. Is this true?”
“Of course, you came at the right time. We were just discussing this matter.”
Hearing this, the mage behind Price couldn’t help but whisper.
Price nodded and said, “Thank you very much for your support of the Mage Association. I came here to personally thank you, and also to invite you to join the Mage Association as the vice president.”
The vice president of the Mage Association!
All the feudal lords looked at Fang Heng, their eyes full of envy.
Over the years, every vice president of the Mage Association was either a highly respected senior scholar with outstanding academic research or a talented legendary mage.
No matter what, every single one of them was a target that the royal family was trying their best to rope in!
Thinking about it carefully, Lord Fang Heng really did have the ability!
[Hint: President Price invites you to join the Mage Association and become the vice president of the association.]
[Hint: Rejecting the invitation will reduce the favorability of the Mage Association by a small amount. Accepting the invitation will increase your Empire reputation.]
“Of course, thank you. I’d love to.”
Fang Heng thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Could the Mage Association have some ulterior motive for offering such a huge benefit?
But it didn’t matter!
Joining the Mage Association would be of great help to his plan to eliminate the abyssal demon in the future!
At this stage, he had to unite all the forces that could be united!
“Welcome to the Mage Association. I know Lord Fang Heng is very busy right now. We’ll simplify the appointment ceremony and just sign your magic imprint.”
An advanced mage beside Price handed over a scroll that he had prepared.
The contents of the scroll were very simple. There were only a few lines of small words. The gist of it was that he had volunteered to join the Mage Association and become the vice president of the Mage Association.
There were no rights or obligations.
Fang Heng glanced at it and left a spiritual imprint on the scroll.
[Hint: Player has joined the Mage Association and will be the vice president of the Mage Association.]
[Hint: The player’s Mage Association reputation has increased greatly, and the player’s Empire reputation has increased greatly.]
[Hint: Tang Mingyue’s heir to the Empire reputation has increased slightly.]
