Chapter 321 Meeting with Noyce (Part 2)

   About half an hour later.

  Noyce, who was standing in front of the silver and white high table writing and drawing, finally stopped writing.

  Seeing this, Colin also slowly put down the manuscript paper in his hand, stacked it neatly, and then cast an inquiring look at Noyce.

   "I have some inspiration." Noyce slowly raised his head, his brows gradually stretched, and smiled at Colin, "But whether there can be a substantive breakthrough requires further research."

   What was sorted out on the draft paper just now is mainly theory. If you want to continue to turn inspiration into something feasible, you have to carry out actual experiments.

  Thinking of this, Noyce couldn't wait to go to the experimental platform on the other side.

   But looking at Colin in front of him, he paused, and finally remembered the topic of calling Colin over today.

   "Almost forgot the business of calling you this time." Slightly patted his forehead, Noyce sighed:

   "It's shameful to say that, as a heroic wizard, you haven't been rewarded yet."

"Before, I always thought that when I successfully improved the crimson mark technique, then I would directly let you appear in front of the world as a heroic wizard and crimson mark technique improver, and get what you deserve Honors and rewards."

   "But in this case, although you can't give honor, at least the reward can be given to you in advance."

   Speaking of this, Noyce smiled, and said with some emotion with these jokes:

   "At the beginning, I planned to give you the honor of improving the crimson mark technique. I was a little worried that the image I created as a witchcraft genius would not stand the test. Now it seems that I am probably worrying too much."

   "Now I'm a little reluctant to expose your identity completely." He paused for a few seconds, looked at Colin and said quietly.

  Colin thought for a while and asked: "Is it because of the possible 'thorns'?"

   "Yes." Noyce glanced at him and nodded, "Deadly thorns always come with honor.

  Once your identity as a hero wizard and crimson mark technique is exposed, it means that you will become one of the most conspicuous thorns in the side of the gods. "

  Colin nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

  He actually doesn't care about the false name of the so-called hero wizard and crimson marking technique improver, as long as he can get substantial benefits.

  If this makes your surroundings fraught with danger, it would be a bit uneconomical.

  Colling paused, organized his words, and was about to say that he didn't want to show his face, and he didn't need such an honor.

  But Noyce was the first to speak: "I will inform several informed wizards of the Supreme Council about your situation.

   But as for whether you will be allowed to stand in front of the stage publicly, it still depends on the resolution of the Supreme Council at that time. "

  Colin glanced at the calm congressman and fell silent. He understood the meaning of Noyce's words.

   In the matter of whether to disclose his identity, he actually has no choice.

   Whether it will be made public in the end depends on whether the Supreme Council needs to come to the stage by itself.

  If the parliament feels that the side of the declining wizards now needs a hero with the identity of a witchcraft genius.

   Then he will be pushed to the front of the stage.

   On the contrary, it will not.

  In such a powerless situation, Colin's mood gradually sank, and he even thought darkly—

  If he was unfortunately assassinated and sacrificed by the gods because he came to the front of the stage, then the Supreme Council might take this opportunity to spread hatred and cheer up the momentum of the wizards.

  The mourning army must win, nothing more than that.

   "You don't have to worry too much. Every wizard is a precious resource for today's wizard community, let alone a talented wizard like you."

   Seemingly aware of something, Noyce patted his shoulder and said with a smile.

  This sentence is not a false comfort. If Colin is just an ordinary wizard with no potential, there may be a possibility of being given up.

  But judging from the talent that Colin has shown so far, he is undoubtedly a precious talent.

  Colin exhaled slightly, and came back to his senses as if he had woken up.

  As Noyce said, there is a high probability that things will not be as bad as he imagined.

  In fact, it is actually hard to say whether the benefits of disclosing his identity outweigh the disadvantages, or the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

   It's just that the feeling of powerlessness that he can't control his own destiny really makes him a little unhappy, so he unconsciously thinks a little more.

  ‘In the final analysis, it is still not strong enough. ’ Colin couldn’t help laughing at himself.

   "Okay, do you have the reward you want?" Noyce continued to ask.

   "The idea of ​​Xi Shengming in the second stage." Colin said without hesitation.

   This is what he needs most urgently.

   "Do you want to meditate..." Noyes had a rare look of embarrassment on his face. Looking at Colin's puzzled look, he explained:

   "If it is ordinary witchcraft knowledge, there is no problem, but meditation is not good. This is the core knowledge of each school, and only each school is qualified to teach it."

   "To get it, you must go to the school to exchange it according to the rules."

   Speaking of this, Noyce paused for a moment and added meaningfully:

   "This is the most basic rule of the Wizarding Union, the cornerstone of order, and no one can bypass it openly and ignore it blatantly."

   "Especially a councilor like me, do you understand, Colin?"

   When referring to 'rules' and 'cornerstones', Noyce's tone was slightly aggravated, seemingly indifferent and disdainful, but he seemed a little helpless.

  Colin's surprised expression gradually faded away. He was not a stupid person, and he had already understood the subtext in Noyce's words.

  In this world of wizards, the so-called rules and order are actually just means to safeguard the interests of the upper class.

  The stronger the rules, the stronger the upper class.

  Under such circumstances, of course some core rules cannot be broken, because this is tantamount to offending the common interests of all upper levels, and will be attacked by groups.

   Of course, this does not mean that some means cannot be used to circumvent the rules.

  As the visitor from the Hidos family said, as long as he joins the Hidos family, they can find someone else to help him with school tasks in exchange for contribution points.

   These are some unspoken rules that have been established by convention, and there is no blatant violation of the rules, so naturally there will be no problems.

   It's just that for Noyce, he is obviously more sensitive than ordinary wizards because of his high position and authority, and he can't take the lead in ignoring such rules.

  So while keeping Colin's identity secret, such a seemingly simple request really stumped him.

   "It's the easiest way to exchange meditation ideas directly through the school. If you don't want to waste time doing school tasks, generally speaking, you can also exchange contribution points by handing in witchcraft." Noyes thought for a while and said:

   "Or you can directly choose a side to join. With your talent, after you want to join, it will definitely not be a problem to get follow-up meditation ideas."

   Having said that, Noyce looked at Colin, pondered for a moment and reminded:

   "However, I recommend that you choose to turn in witchcraft to exchange for contribution points. If you choose to join a pure-blood family or faction, you must read the contract clearly."

   While saying these words, his voice paused in an undetectable way in the pure-blood family.

"I understand." Colin nodded and said in a deep voice, after thinking for a while, he asked again: "Apart from the way of exchanging from the school, is there really no other way to get the second-order stage of Xi Shengming's ideas? Don't even the Supreme Council have the second-order stage of Xi Shengming's idea?"

   "Witchcraft is mainly included in the Supreme Council. Although there are meditation methods, it does not involve the meditation methods of large wizard schools. This is the core thing of every wizard school that has been passed down for thousands of years." Noyes replied.

  He touched his chin, and said: "However, there is indeed a place where you can exchange for the second stage of Xi Shengming's thoughts."

  Colin raised his head, a little surprised.

  He continued to ask, but he just wanted to confirm, but he didn't have much hope in his heart.

   After all, through today's conversation, he realized that in this wizarding world, the solidification between different classes is much more serious than he imagined.

  The meditation method is so strictly monopolized, which means that no matter how amazing and talented ordinary wizards are, in order to obtain subsequent meditation methods, they will always be subject to the school and be exploited by the family or faction that masters the meditation method.

   Moreover, according to Noyce's tone, choosing to join a pure-blood family, or lying down with certain factions, is probably not a good choice... There is a high probability that you will lose your freedom.

  Maybe in the end, maybe it’s better to do tasks one by one to accumulate contribution points to exchange for meditation.

   It may be more tiring, but at least freedom is guaranteed.

  Of course, this is for ordinary wizards. For him, with the golden paper, there is no need to hold on to Xi Shengming.

  As long as there are conditions, you can change to another meditation method at any time.

  Colin relaxed a little, so at least he didn't have to worry about being choked by the Tin Holy School because of his meditation ideas in the future.

  Although there were many thoughts in his heart, the reality only passed for a moment. Colin continued to ask Noyce:

   "Another place for...?"

   "True Knowing Society." Noyce replied, with reminiscence in his light brown eyes, "Speaking of which, this is one of the most famous organizations of the Wizarding Union, although it has declined a lot now."

   "If you really want to save some time in obtaining the second-order Xi Shengming ideas, you can try to join the True Knowledge Society."

   "At least in the True Knowing Society, if you hand in the same amount of witchcraft knowledge, you can get more things in exchange, and the price is better."

   "In addition, joining the True Knowing Society will not affect your status as a member of the school, just like being able to teach some schools of meditation—this is one of the many privileges it has obtained before."

   "Well, by the way, how many contribution points do you have in the Xisheng School?" Noyster paused, then asked curiously.

   "No," Colin shook his head, "I don't have any contribution points."

   This time it was Noyce's turn to be a little surprised. He paused and asked, "After joining the school, have you never done a mission?"

   "Yes." Colin nodded, then added after a pause, "I haven't been a member of Xisheng School for a long time."

  Atbold's faction is so idle that he didn't even need to do any work when he was an apprentice in witchcraft.

  Be aware that in other factions witchcraft apprentices will have mandatory tasks to complete every month.

  Perhaps the only task he has ever done is to accompany the Ahrius Society.

  Thinking of this, Colin was slightly taken aback, and then realized that he hadn't settled the contribution points of the Accompanying Ahrius Club yet!

   "Maybe there are a few," thinking of this, he added: "I still did a mission—as an accompanying wizard of the Axios Society, I went to the southern sea.

  Probably get some contribution points. "

  Noyce shook his head and smiled, "Then if you want to quickly exchange to the second-order Xi Shengming idea, I'm afraid you can only rely on handing in witchcraft."

   "After all, based on your current situation, even if you join some forces, unless you can send dozens of first-order wizards, according to common sense, it will take at least a month or two to collect enough contribution points for you."

  Colin nodded in agreement, feeling a little headache.

   If it’s not necessary, he doesn’t want to do the missions of the school. It’s king to spend his time on practicing with peace of mind!

"Apart from meditation? Do you have any rewards you want?" Noyce looked at the time, opened his mouth and continued to ask, after thinking about it, he added, "I suggest you choose knowledge as much as possible. For wizards, knowledge It is the most precious thing."

  Colin nodded, that's exactly what he was thinking.

  Witch tools and the like are only external forces after all, not to mention that with the gold paper, knowledge is more valuable to him.

   "Second-level witchcraft and complete meditation that can reach the second level or higher." Colin pondered for a moment and replied.

   "Yes." Noyce nodded, but he didn't ask Colin why he wanted to meditate.

  However, he guessed, maybe it was to get in touch with the second-order stage of other meditation thoughts in advance, and to prepare in advance for learning the second-order stage of Xi Sheng's meditation idea.

  Noyce continued: "It will take some time for the reward to reach your hands. I have to report to the council. I will give it to you after the discussion is confirmed. Now I mainly collect your intentions."

   "But don't worry, with your credit, the needs of some second-level witchcraft and some ordinary meditation methods will definitely be met."

   After finishing speaking, Noyce glanced at his watch again, and then ended the topic.

   "Let's stop here today, and I will let you know when the results of the parliamentary discussions come out."

   After he finished speaking, he nodded to Colin, and hurried towards the experimental table beside him.

  Time is extremely precious to him, and it has been delayed for a long time now.

   "Okay, Mr. Noyce."

  Colin raised his hand and saluted, then silently turned and left knowing what he understood.

   Change first.
