Chapter 852 Seized
An invisible light swept over Felipe and the mysterious man's bodies, and the silver-gray door opened backwards, revealing a colorful honeycomb-like corridor.
On the corridor, an old man wearing a bright red magic robe was looking at them with lightning bolts in his eyes, and said with a blunt face: "Was Blaze here just now? Otherwise, Hathaway's experiment would not have changed inexplicably! Moreover, I can feel it!"
The young man bared his teeth quietly: "Maybe......"
Then, he said innocently: "What happened?"
…………
Pawn!
The "White Bone Wall Clock" on the Academic Affairs Tower made a long but cold sound.
Donnie happened to draw the last line in his soul, and the spell model collapsed sharply, frantically absorbing the sea of energy, life and death intertwined, and "power" continued to divide and grow, bringing turbulent and violent changes.
When everything calmed down, there was a complex "crystal" in Donnie's soul, which flowed with mystery, contained mystery, and was an intuitive presentation of some kind of law, which also showed that Donnie had passed the apprenticeship stage and became an official magician!
This is a breakthrough that countless magic apprentices have dreamed of, but most of them struggle to do so.
As long as you become an official magician, you can not only gain the power to easily kill apprentices and ordinary people, but also automatically become a municipal councilor in your home city, which is equivalent to a lord and an ordinary baron.
Since he almost touched the "black armor" a few months ago, he and Carl and Sammy have never had a similar nightmare again, their lives are stable, their studies are at ease, and the breakthrough of mental power seems to be much easier than before, so after Carl and Sami, he can also successfully break through before the arrival of the New Year! This is also a good result among the apprentices of Heidler Magic Academy over the years.
Although some became official magicians before being admitted to Heidler Magic Academy, most apprentices were only qualified to reach the official rank near the end of the first year, and few were able to break through before the new year.
「…… It feels like those nightmares have brought about soul tempering, so the spiritual power will grow much faster and the foundation will be solid......" Donnie thought wildly, "Just the nightmare is like this, if you finally touch the black full body armor, what kind of changes will it have?"
"No, maybe I was controlled by that black armor, so I can't be too greedy...... Well, take advantage of the New Year holiday to go home and thank Mr. Doros, without his generous help, I don't know how long I will have to wait to become an official mage......"
…………
In the 24th year of the arcane calendar, at the end of the Ice Moon, the cold wind was fierce, dripping water turned into ice, and the cold made pedestrians "shrink in" tightly inside their coats, and their hats were pressed low.
"It's so cold before I know it......" On the platform of the hexagram, Karl pulled his men's suit and exhaled deliberately, so the white air on his mouth filled the air, like a mist.
Although Donnie had become an official magician, he did not bless himself with spells to resist the cold at this time, so he also shivered and gathered his black magic robe: "Yes, it feels like winter when you arrive at Rentat."
After leaving the Necromancer, Heidler City is infected by the breath of the Necromancer all year round, which is similar, and there is a magic air conditioner in the magic steam train for heating, so in addition to the snow all the way, Donnie and Karl have a sense of winter at this time.
"I have to go home, see you after the New Year's holiday." Karl smiled sweetly, and then, he waved his hand, "By the way, Happy New Year!"
Sammy and Jones separated from them at the Heidler platform, after all, the routes were different.
Watching Karl disappear into the crowd on the platform, Donneville sighed uncontrollably, half a year has passed, and he still doesn't quite adapt to Carl's appearance.
He shook his head, got rid of this thought, and walked out of the platform, he had booked a ticket to return to his home town tomorrow, and today he had to visit and thank Mr. Doros and the teachers who took care of him when he was in school.
Near Triumph Square, Donnie excitedly walked to the "Knowledge Bookstore", wanting to tell Mr. Doros the good news of his promotion to a formal mage as soon as possible.
"How could this happen?" Donnie stood in front of the "Knowledge Bookstore" in a daze, not understanding what had happened.
I saw that the door of the "Knowledge Bookstore" was closed, and there were several notes pasted on it, slightly dim and blurry.
"Why is it closed?" Donnie approached in surprise, carefully discerning the words on the note.
"The shopkeeper evaded taxes and was specially seized. Holm Revenue Department."
"Suspected of selling prohibited books, it is specially sealed together. Magic Council Corrections Division, Holm Police Department."
"Suspected of selling counterfeit and shoddy magic items, it is specially seized jointly. Magic Council Corrections Department, Rentat City Hall."
……
Donnie stared at the seals dumbfounded, muttering, "What the hell did Mr. Doros do......"
Ten years ago, with the further spread of magical objects and the increase in the number of alchemy workshops of different types, social life in Holm changed dramatically, one of the distinctive features of which was the increasingly detailed division of labor, so the then Prime Minister Duke Heinrich split the previously mixed government departments to deal with this situation.
Although it seemed that Mr. Doros had committed a crime, thinking of his help to him, Donnie still refused to leave, and found another small shop owner nearby and asked carefully.
"A few months ago, people from the tax department summoned Doros and said that he was evading taxes."
"After being summoned, Doros never came back, and in the next few days, people came to post seals one after another, tsk, there were several in total."
"I heard that Doros has been imprisoned in the Demon Forbidden Prison and will not be released until at least five or six years."
Facing Donnie, who wore an official mage emblem on his chest, the owners of nearby shops did not dare to hide it, nor did they dare to use their nicknames to obtain nicknames for tax collectors and police officers in private.
"Forbidden Demon Prison......" Donnie whispered, struggled and hesitated for a moment, but decided to visit Mr. Doros, after all, he was very helpful to him.
Unfortunately, Donnie was soon disappointed, because the council staff told him that the Forbidden Demon Prison where Doros was held was far away, and that his vacation was only enough to make it back and forth, so he wrote a letter to Doros on the advice of the staff member and left his contact location.
…………
Toot!
Bang bang!
The sound of the train entering the station frightened all the children playing nearby to retreat with horror, and even the adults around them were slightly afraid.
Donnie slowly walked down from the magic steam train, with familiar buildings and familiar distant mountains in his sight, and his emotions were indescribable.
"Hey, isn't that Donnie from the White family?" There are not many residents in the town, and they are all familiar with each other.
"Yes, it's Donny, he looks like he's grown up a lot, wait a minute, the badge on his magic robe seems to have changed?"
"A black ring on the silver background, he, he is a noble Mr. Magician!"
In an instant, the eyes of the townspeople who were familiar to Donnie before changed, full of awe and envy, as if this was no longer the Donnie they knew, but a strange Mr. Magician who was more noble than the old mayor!
Although they have never met a formal magician a few times, they are deeply impressed by the hospitality of the stingy mayor, and before they know it, the naughty child of the neighbor's house has become a high-ranking Mr. Magician?
The change in the attitude of the residents could not hide the increasingly sensitive Donny, he was a little uncomfortable, a little emotional, and a little heartfelt joy, no wonder everyone wanted to become a magician, a nobleman, at least until he could truly explore the world, this feeling could push him to work hard.
After a brief pause, someone left the platform and shouted, "White, White! Your little Donnie is back! He has become Mr. Magician!"
Donnie immediately quickened his pace and headed for the exit of the platform.
It didn't take long for a middle-aged man whose face seemed to have been polished by wind and frost appeared on the street near the platform, he looked old, gray hair, and if it weren't for the wrinkles, some people would believe it if he was in his fifties or sixties, and behind him was a fat middle-aged woman, a youthful girl.
The expressions of the three of them were equally excited and joyful, and the two ladies were already in tears.
"Father, mother, Lily......" Donnie walked over with a slightly choked voice.
His father, White, held his hand tightly and patted hard: "Okay, okay, good......"
At this moment, Donnie felt that his hard work and dangerous experience were worth it!
…………
The only thing that is not very pleasant is that the town is still very backward, not only are the street lights only near the platform, but there is not even a home TV, etc., and you can only listen to the "Mysterious Voice" in the open space at the east end of the town.
On this day, Donnie was about to go out with his parents and sister to listen to the "Voice of the Mystery" when he suddenly saw a carriage engraved with the noble coat of arms parked in front of him.
"Hello, dear Mr. White, my master, Baron Herdos, would like to invite you to his manor as a guest, hoping that you will help him solve a problem that has troubled him for a long time." A man who looked like a butler got out of the carriage.
Downey knew that Baron Heldos was the lord of these small towns, so he didn't dare to neglect it: "I don't know what? If I can help, I will definitely go."
The housekeeper did not hide it: "My master has an ancient castle that often shows signs of haunting, and I have asked several magic apprentices and mages to help, but to no avail, two of them are dead inside. I heard that you have become an official magician and a student of Heidler Magic Academy, so my master earnestly asks for your help, you are a professional."
Donnie was a little reflexively afraid of this kind of thing, but before he could refuse, he heard the butler say: "Whether you succeed or not, my master will reward you with ten queen gold coins, and if you can solve this matter, there is more!"
