Volume 6 Chapter 64 Bottom line of shamelessness
“How to defeat an Arch Magus?” Arch Magus Camilla looked at Xu Yi with a surprised look, “Kid, do you find me dissatisfying to look at? You’re actually asking me this question.”
“No, no, no, I wouldn’t dare.” Xu Yi waved his hand, “I was just thinking that this question is very important to me right now. Grandfather, you’ve been training with the guards many times now, do you think that the guards could pose a threat to you?”
“Didn’t I tell you last time?” Arch Magus Camilla looked at Xu Yi, “It’s a lie if I said that there was no threat at all, but that is only if I stand there and fight with them. If we fight properly, I’m certain that they aren’t any threat to me.”
“This means…..it still doesn’t work if the guards become more flexible?” Xu Yi asked in a thoughtful voice.
“In general, it is indeed an issue of flexibility.”
“Then what do you mean specifically?”
“Specifically, it is that the current military magic machines can’t interfere with space, so it is very hard for the attacks to land on Arch Magi that can manipulate space. Moreover, even if you can fight in normal space, a normal Arch Magus could dodge with various spells, so they could avoid even the most dangerous attacks.”
“In short, it’s very hard to really hit, right?” Xu Yi asked.
“It’s pretty much this.” Arch Magus Camilla gave a nod before adding, “Of course, with the might of the current military magic machines, even if i stand still, it would take half an hour of attacking for them to break through my magic barrier.”
Xu Yi could only roll his eyes.
Arch Magi really were more abnormal than people thought.
Although these military magic machines the Frestech Chamber of Commerce made weren’t as powerful as the weapons from bearth, they were still considered quite powerful.
At least after the Rudson Kingdom’s army was equipped with the low grade military magic machines, they were able to easily defeat the Candra Empire’s army.
Even when facing low grade magicians, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce guards could easily deal with them.
If they were even fully prepared, it wasn’t a problem to fight a Great Magician.
But facing those that were at the Arch Magus level, they were a bit helpless.
Like Arch Magus Camilla said, no matter how strong it was, they wouldn’t be able to pose any threat to the Arch Magus without solving the accuracy problem.
But Xu Yi had already made mental preparations and he was just getting some confirmations from Arch Magus Camilla.
“Kid, you care this much about this, could it be that you really want to fight an Arch Magus?” Arch Magus Camilla asked with a doubtful look.
“I’m not crazy……” Xu Yi shook his head and waved his hand before saying in a helpless voice, “But the Candra Empire and the Marlow Empire have several Arch Magi working for them. If I can’t find a way to deal with Arch Magi, our Frestech Chamber of Commerce needs to seriously consider our plans for the two empires because we will have scruples over the Arch Magi of the two empires.”
“Che, I was thinking about what you were thinking about.” Arch Magus Camilla curled his lips, “Didn’t I tell you last time, the Magicians Guild has rules and magicians at the Great Magician and Arch Magus level can’t participate in the wars between countries. What are you worried about? Or are you arrogant enough that you want to attack the Candra Empire and the Marlow Empire?”
“Would you believe it if I said that I was really considering this?” Xu Yi asked back.
“Then do you believe that I will beat you up first to make you forget that idea?” Arch Magus Camilla glared at him and said with a serious look, “I’m warning you, although the Frestech Chamber of Commerce have made many powerful military magic machines, making the company guards very powerful, the Candra Empire and the Marlow Empire have been on the continent for over a thousand years, so their hidden power is beyond your imagination. Don’t think that you can take care of them just with the military magic machines, understood?”
“I’m just kidding, what are you so serious for?” Xu Yi waved his hand with a naughty smile, “Relax, I said that I’m not crazy, how could I really go attack the Candra Empire and the Marlow Empire. Then again, the two empires are important business partners in my plan and I need them to earn money. If I go and attack them, how am I supposed to earn money from them?”
“It’s good you understand.” Arch Magus Camilla gave a cold snort and after pausing, he said, “Alright, I do get what you are thinking about. Relax, as long as you don’t do anything stupid, you won’t offend an Arch Magus. With the power of your Frestech Chamber of Commerce guards, whether it is the Candra Empire or the Marlow Empire, they won’t have a way to kill into the Stantine Duchy and destroy the Frestech Chamber of Commerce. Then again, it isn’t just you who wants to do business with them, they want to obtain all kinds of magic machines from you, so what are you worried about?”
“But I really want to do something stupid…..” Xu Yi muttered in his heart. After thinking about it, he decided to let go of this matter temporarily and asked Arch Magus Camilla, “Then…..grandfather, Arch Magus…..or perhaps Great Magicians, what are their relationships with the Magicians Guild? Are they members?”
“You are a Great Magician, do you think that you will obey the commands of the Magicians Guild?” Arch Magus Camilla asked back.
“This…..If it’s something casual, there’s no reason why I wouldn’t listen. But if it was something that was more important…..He, he……”
“So don’t you feel stupid asking this?” Arch Magus Camilla rolled his eyes at Xu Yi, “The Magicians Guild is just the joint operation of magicians on the continent. In theory, they are the organization that gathers all the magicians on the continent, but it doesn’t have any actual powers.”
“Of course, the Magicians Guild does have influence on most magicians, especially the low grade magicians who listen to their orders. However, Great Magicians and Arch Magus aren’t normal people. The Magicians Guild would at most make suggestions and requests, but it’s impossible for them to give orders.”
“If it’s like this, that is great!” Xu Yi gave an excited clap, “Then that mean that if I did something that went against the wishes of the Magicians Guild headquarters, it wouldn’t be too much of a problem?”
Arch Magus Camilla knitted his brows, “What do you want to do? Don’t blame me for not reminding you, although you are already a Great Magician and cannot be restrained by the Magicians Guild, don’t forget that there are still many low grade magicians in the Magicians Guild who are still influenced by them. The company is depending on those low grade magicians, so if you really offend the Magicians Guild, then it wouldn’t benefit the company at all.”
“I understand this. Grandfather, you might as well listen to how the Magicians Guild is treating us before considering this question, alright?” Xu Yi said.
Arch Magus Camilla was surprised, “What? The Magicians Guild headquarters fellows are doing something shameless again?”
Hearing Arch Magus Camilla’s words, Xu Yi calmed down.
It seemed like those fellows at the Magicians Guild headquarters didn’t have a good impression on Arch Magus Camilla, it could even be said that he was against them.
If it was like this, he should be able to get Arch Magus Camilla’s understanding and support.
After around ten minutes, there was a trace of anger that appeared on Arch Magus Camilla’s face.
“I always thought that those fellows were shameless, but I never thought that they would be this shameless!” Arch Magus Camilla had a clear anger in his low voice, “They happily accepted the patent because of the large patent fees, but now that they’ve seen how much money the magic machines make, they shamelessly dissolved the patents. Very good, I’ve seen just how shameless they can be once again!”
Seeing the angered Arch Magus Camilla, Xu Yi was a bit surprised.
Although he was certain that Arch Magus Camilla would side with him, feeling dissatisfied with the Magicians Guild headquarters dissolving the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s magic machine patents, he never thought that he would have such a big response.
“How are you planning on responding to their requests?” Arch Magus Camilla looked at Xu Yi as he asked this.
“Of course we can’t agree.” Xu Yi gave a shrug, “But the problem is that if we lose the patent protection from the Magicians Guild headquarters, it will cause many problems for our company. So I have to think of some ways to take care of this.”
“Since you want to do this, you can’t have any scruples over the Magicians Guild headquarters.” Arch Magus Camilla said with a wave of his hand.
“But the measure that I want to use might attack the prestige of the Magicians Guild headquarters, so I think that they will definitely interfere.” Xu Yi said.
Arch Magus Camilla gave a cold snort, “This matter was something caused by those fellows, so they are attacking the prestige of the Magicians Guild. If this thing was known, the Magicians Guild’s face would be slapped to the ground!”
“But I don’t want to have a complete falling out with the Magicians Guild right now. So grandfather, I have to ask you to help me consider this matter. You have a better understanding of the Magicians Guild headquarters and the more important thing is that you are an Arch Magus, so you know much more than I do.” Xu Yi said in a sincere voice.
Arch Magus Camilla gave a nod, “Speak, what are you planning on doing?”
Xu Yi took a document from his chest for Arch Magus Camilla.
“This was something I made a few days ago, it’s a plan for setting up a committee in the magic machine industry for protecting patents……”
