Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1314 40 The new mage Donald is promoted

Tower of Time, Public Floor, Personnel Office.

After receiving the news, Xia Duo and Niya rushed over immediately. Since there was no delay on the way, when the two arrived here, the head of the personnel department and the senior mage De Parker had just arrived.

Seeing the two appear here together, De Parker was very surprised, "Niya, Xia Duo, why are you here?"

"I have always been concerned about the promotion of apprentices, and I just received a notice from Taling."

Xia Duo took over the conversation and briefly explained it. Immediately afterwards, he asked De Parker a question: "What do you think of the promotion of these apprentices?"

"Uh--"

De Parker groaned, his face showed hesitation, and he still knew some basic information about the Tower of Time.

There are more than 40 apprentices, or new mages, who have applied for promotion authority. Before today, he had never experienced such a scene.

But how to arrange so many people?
If all of them are promoted, then these 40 newly promoted mages who are still unable to generate income in a short period of time will immediately bring a lot of financial pressure to the Tower of Time.

In addition to the basic salary paid to them, there is also the cost of infrastructure maintenance of the Tower of Time, which costs nearly ten thousand per month.

Although he is not responsible for the financial problems of the Tower of Time, in all honesty, Depak still does not want to promote so many official mages at once.

But he also couldn't figure out Xia Duo's thoughts. It stands to reason that Xia Duo should support the promotion of apprentices, but the current situation of the Tower of Time is here. Today's promotion is more than 40, what about tomorrow?What about the day after tomorrow?
You must know that the Tower of Time, including those former apprentices who have been rehired, now has nearly a thousand registered apprentices. As for the specific number, as the head of the personnel department, De Parker is also very familiar with it——

A total of 720 people!
Most of them have received more than a year of new-style education, and the so-called new-style education, in De Parker's view, is a complete arcanist education.

He couldn't tell how many of those apprentices would eventually become arcanists, but it was not difficult to become an official mage.

Before today, nearly 20 people have become official mages and have been promoted within the Tower of Time, and this batch has more than 40 people.

This is the outbreak period for apprentices to become official mages.

De Parker can almost imagine that in the not-too-distant future, hundreds of people will all become official mages. The expenses of so many people can hardly be covered by the income from the existing mass-produced magic items in the Tower of Time. past.

He can even foresee the future, will Xia Duo, a senior arcanist who designed a new type of education, not foresee it?

But if it is said that the promotion is not allowed, or the promotion is deliberately blocked, it is against the spirit of justice in the transformation of the Tower of Time promoted by Xia Duo.

This kind of thing can be done secretly, but it's not good to say it in front of the person involved!

At this moment, De Parker was not only hesitant, but also troubled, entangled, and in a dilemma. In the end, he could only say something vaguely:
"These people are able to become official mages in such a short period of time, and they are all the best among apprentices. I think the Tower of Time needs to give them some support."

He said it, but he didn't say anything.

Xia Duo didn't think too much about it. He came mainly because he was worried that De Parker would deliberately block the promotion of those people. In addition, he also wanted to meet this group of newly promoted mages.

Regardless of whether these people are in a hurry, they can complete the upgrade in the first time and apply for promotion authority, after all, they are "the best among apprentices" as De Parker said.

If possible, he would also like to exhort them to make these people face up to the foundation and return to the right path.

"As for the promotion of these people, just follow the regulations of the Tower of Time. Those who meet the conditions will be promoted, and those who don't, don't take care of them deliberately."

After finishing speaking, Xia Duo turned to look at Niya again, and made an inviting gesture, "Then let's watch from the side."

"it is good."

……

In the Tower of Time, it is very convenient for the tower spirit to convey information.

After Xia Duo indicated that De Parker could start, there was a familiar face at the door soon. Seeing this, Xia Duo couldn't help shaking his head secretly. This De Parker is really careful.

The person who came was Xia Duo's old acquaintance during his apprenticeship—Donald!

In the past, Donald was the most advanced model of the exchange meeting promoted by the Advancement Society, and now he has become an official mage. Although he came later than the first batch of members of the Advancement Society, he has made remarkable progress compared to others.

If it was said that De Parker did not arrange Donald first on purpose, Xia Duo would not believe it, but the order of promotion is actually not important.

The key is whether you can get promoted.

"Respected Lord Lord, Lord Xiaduo, Lord De Parker, Donald pays tribute to you!"

In front of Niya and De Parker, Donald still didn't dare to call Xia Duo by his name, but his demeanor showed a calmness that ordinary apprentices don't have.

It seems that the experience in Tilak's laboratory has really made him grow a lot.

Of course, along with the growth of character and ability, there is also Donald's body shape. In just two years, Donald has grown from a small fat man who was a head lower than Xia Duo at the beginning to a big fat man who is about as tall as Xia Duo .

In terms of body size, the current Donald and the famous foodie mage Shande in the Tower of Time are definitely comparable.

It's just that Xia Duo, as someone who is familiar with Donald, knows very well that Donald is not gluttonous, and maybe he has some special blood.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo immediately decided to send Donald to Zilan Tower for further study if he had the opportunity in the future. Perhaps Donald could find a new development direction there.

"Donald, show me the 1st-level spells you have mastered." According to the procedure, De Parker asked very formally.

"Yes."

Donald responded, and immediately began to cast spells, but the spells he cast were not ordinary 1st-level spells, but equivalent 1st-level spells for the ring-ascending trial. In fact, they were completely composed of 0-level elements.

Seeing this, De Parker nodded secretly. In fact, he had already heard about Donald's reputation. After all, there are nearly a thousand people in the Tower of Time and there is no third fat man.

It is said that this guy is doing well in Tilak's research room. It seems that he did not become an official mage recently, but it must have been delayed or forgotten.

"It's alright, Master Donald, congratulations, you've been promoted successfully!"

Afterwards, De Parker handed Donald a contract document. Now the official mage promotion of the Tower of Time, although still following the previous form, the contract document is very different from before.

In fact, at the beginning of the transformation of the Tower of Time, everyone has already replaced the new contract, but Donald is now changing from the previous apprenticeship contract to the contract of a full member of the Tower of Time.

Donald took the contract and didn't write anything, but just said to the contract, "I agree!"

A trace of sacred aura flashed on the contract, and then disappeared, but in the magic vision, the contract still exudes a relatively bright glow of holy power.

After the sacred contract is signed, it is time to elevate the authority on the Taling side. This step is the simplest, as long as the person with authority communicates with the Taling to issue an order.

Soon, Donald completed all the promotion procedures.
