Chapter 271: Thinking of truth.
Grey Rain Country-named because there is bound to be a grey rain in the tender season of each year.
This is a nation of professionals through and through. In this country, it is not the traditional king or pope that holds power, but a "high council" composed of master ministers from six legendary organizations.
This parliament nominally needs to "consult" the opinions of the nobles before making a decision, but in fact everyone knows that in this country, the nobles are a complete decoration, and the six masters are in full control of all rights. The legendary organization behind them even made the gods dare not intervene in this country, so this "high council" called "democracy" is actually dictatorship is also called the "six-member assembly"!
There are six legendary organizations that control the country of Gray Rain and have designed key branches here. They are-the "Mage Union" everywhere on the Faerun Continent, and the "Sage Council" that has a leg with the gods. , The infamous "Santarin Club", the "Beheading Alliance" rich in Berserkers, the neutral spellcaster organization "Thinking of Truth", and the most unpopular "Thief Guild".
These six organizations have established branches in the not-so-expansive Grey Rain country. On the one hand, they are in charge of the country's military and political power, and on the other hand, they control the collection and trade of the precious magical plant-"Grey Eupatorium".
A key branch of "Thinking of Truth" is located in the southern swamp of this country. As a more important branch, the "Thinking of Truth" branch of Grey Rain Country is far from those set up on the edge in all aspects. The small divisions of the region can be compared.
In this key branch, there are a total of five master-level spellcasters sitting in it, and the head of the branch is a well-known 19th-level prophecy mage.
There are more than 30 official-level powerhouses and hundreds of apprentice masters under the branch.
"Thinking of Truth" very much pursues the education of masters. Almost all of their key branches will regularly recruit apprentices and train masters. Every member above the official level is obliged to draw out unless they are performing tasks or have applied for "continuous research". Some time to teach apprentices, and this division is of course no exception.
It is the middle of the autumn harvest season. Among the countless poor, countless nobles and even many professional families in the Grey Rain Country, the first day of the next month is a big day that cannot be ignored-because the three spellcaster organizations will all start on that day. Start the recruitment of a new batch of apprentices.
The three spellcaster organizations recruit apprentices once every fifteen years. Each time they only recruit teenagers over ten and under twenty as apprentices. Therefore, for ordinary people, they will join the legendary organization and become a spellcaster for a lifetime. Only once.
Therefore, even if there is still one month before the apprenticeship recruitment date, countless poor families and noble families in the Grey Rain Country have already begun to prepare enthusiastically. In this extremely solidified and cruel world, the poor’s son is almost certainly the poor. However, the son of a nobleman may not be able to continue to be a nobleman, so becoming a professional is almost the only opportunity for the poor to ask the poor, and it is also the inevitable choice for the nobleman to ensure the status of the family.
In order to seize this only opportunity, how could everyone not be prepared?
Recruiting apprentices is also a very important or troublesome thing for the three spellcaster organizations with a complete education system (the wizard's union does not recruit apprentices), after all, this matter is quite cumbersome and highly valued.
For "Thinking of Truth", this time period is even more busy. As a semi-academic mage institution, "Thinking of Truth" chooses apprentices by looking only at talents and not seeing themselves, so its method of recruiting apprentices is dispatch Official-level wizards led a group of apprentice-level wizards to various cities and towns to test and bring back to the academy the teenagers and girls of school age who possessed the talent of wizards.
This matter is only one aspect of taking time, the most important thing is-the process of recruiting apprentices must not be so peaceful.
You know, although ordinary people with the qualifications to become spellcasters are one in a thousand, there are still enough, but those with better talents are really rare. In this case, three spellcaster organizations will be Compete for those apprentices with good talents.
Don’t think that this kind of competition will allow apprentices to choose such a good thing. All neutral spellcaster organizations generally follow the principle of “first come, first served”. The party who finds apprentices first will take away qualified apprentices directly. Organizations in the evil camp like the "Santarin Club" generally rob apprentices on the way, and destroy them if they can't grab them. Anyway, they won't let you replenish new blood happily. (Don’t ask the apprentices if they want it, what do the apprentices think for the caster organization? Can they eat it?).
It is precisely because there is "competition" competition and unreasonable robbers blocking the way, the action of accepting apprentices is also vividly called the "new blood war", for the official-level wizards who have accepted the task of "recruiting apprentices" , This job is not a comfortable job that resembles a tourist, but a job that must hurry up at every turn or even start a job if you don’t agree. The most important thing is-the number of apprentices brought back is not enough to be fined!
On this day, seeing the fifteen-year-old "Apprentice Recruitment" task once again hung on the task panel, few official-level spellcasters hesitated in the lobby of "Thinking of Truth".
It is precisely because these formal powerhouses who usually live in the simplest place stop here, the usually bustling mission hall is scattered and quiet, and all the mage apprentices have slowly passed from the edge of the hall, and they dare not dare to be at all. It was sent out, for fear that it would disturb the thinking of "formal masters".
"This time the reward is more generous than the last time. You can buy a "Misty Mist" potion for a full 30 exchange points!"
A short official-level mage stood in the lobby and pointed to the top "Apprentice Recruitment" mission icon and whispered to his companion next to him.
Next to him stood an ugly female mage with half of her face scorched and skinless. The same official-level female mage unceremoniously responded to the words of the short mage:
"Don't just think about the rewards of the mission. Recently, the group of red robes are restless. In the last "Recruiting Apprentices" mission, Mei Di was even killed. She is a twelfth-level official mage!"
"That's because she was too stubborn, and I didn't know how to run when I met two red-robed lunatics..."
"If you run away, you will die. If an apprentice didn't bring it back, do you know how much redemption points you have to pay? You don't know how much money is required for "Thinking of Truth"...I...uuuu..."
As soon as the second half of the female mage's words were spoken, the short mage jumped up and covered her mouth.
Of course she was very upset when she was suddenly covering her mouth, but when she just opened the "dirty hands" list on her mouth and looked fiercely at the short mage, she saw a short mage who was always fearless and fearless. Fawning looked behind him.
The female mage with an ominous premonition in her heart turned her head mechanically, and then... she saw a gray-robed old man with gray hair and an old cloth covering his eyes, standing silently behind her.
"Ke...Master Kirkweilun, you... why are you here..."!
