I have a role in the heavens

"As long as there is sufficient exchange of benefits, the Lord of Hell will not mind even if you kill a certain Duke of Hell, not to mention it is just a small loss. However, you must be careful of him secretly setting up a conspiracy for greater interests. "

Douglas is not unfamiliar with the Lord of Hell. He has gone to hell to explore many times and has dealt with the other party many times. He knows that the other party is a standard benefit creature and does not care too much about issues such as face, so he said with great confidence.

"Don't worry, when this matter calms down, I will go to the ancient ruins in the deepest part of hell to collect information for research. There won't be much danger!"

Douglas' words aroused the approval of Fernando and Vicente. They knew the special nature of the ancient devil's state. How could they not want to study it? They nodded and expressed that they would go together.

Lucien showed a worried look. Although the Lord of Hell only cares about profit and not face, who knows what he thinks. After all, the other party is the devil of hell, cunning, evil and terrifying. If he has a thought, he will attack Douglas. What if someone takes action and leaves them in hell?

Ivan Vincent was sitting at the conference table. He saw Lucien's frowning face and knew what he was worried about. He chuckled and spoke.

"Lucien, don't worry too much. Even if the Council President and the others go to explore the ancient ruins in the deepest part of hell now, there will be no problem!"

"With me here, Maldimos doesn't dare to be presumptuous!"

Lucien's eyes lit up and he looked at Ivan Vincent with a keen gaze. He recalled the mushroom cloud rising from the ninth level of hell. His heart moved slightly and he asked again.

"Your Excellency Ivan Vincent, have you been promoted to a quasi-god?"

As soon as these words came out, Douglas and others ended the discussion one after another, and focused their attention on Ivan Vincent. They were obviously very concerned about this issue. Even Douglas, who had already made speculations in his mind, wanted to get information from Ivan Vincent. Get confirmation.

Whether Ivan Vincent has been promoted to the god-like realm is of great significance to the Magic Council. This means that the arcanists are on the right path, and it also means that there is no need to worry that the Church of Truth can destroy the Magic Council. After all, God-like creatures not only represent powerful strength, but also represent a certain origin. They are immortal and immortal. Even if they fall, they are just falling into a deep sleep. They can wake up from the sea of ​​nothingness over a long period of time.

Ivan Vincent turned his eyes and scanned the faces of Douglas and others. After thinking for a moment, the entire conference room fell into silence. No one made a sound, even those who usually did not deal with Ivan Vincent. Vicente was also silent, quietly waiting for Ivan Vincent's answer. The existence of a god-like person was really important to the Magic Council.

Vicente, the Lord of the Dead, is also the Grand Arcanist of the Magic Council. He is far more thoughtful and generous than ordinary people. He will never let his personal grudges affect his rationality. He hopes from the bottom of his heart that Ivan Vincent will be promoted to a god-like person, so that the Magic Council can When facing the Church of Truth again, there is no need to worry about the existence of Viken.

"It seems that everyone is curious about whether I have been promoted to the god-like realm?"

"Yes, I have indeed been promoted to a quasi-god!"

Douglas and others took a deep breath, inexplicably shocked, and then showed signs of ecstasy, cheering loudly, and were extremely excited.

"Great, His Excellency Ivan Vincent has been promoted to the level of God. When we face the Church of Truth in the future, we no longer need to worry about the existence of Viken!"

"After hundreds of years, the Magic Council finally no longer needs to give in and can face the Church of Truth!"

Fernando and others felt incomprehensible. Unlike Ivan Vincent and Lucien, they were walking on thin ice and careful every step under the suppression of the Church of Truth for hundreds of years. At that time, they were friends and companions who studied magic and explored arcana together. How many died at the hands of the church clergy, full of blood and tears, finally ushered in the dawn, and there was no need to worry that the Magic Council would be wiped out by the Church of Truth.

Although Lucien was also very happy, he was not as emotional as Douglas and others. After calming down, he asked quickly.

"Your Excellency Ivan Vincent, how did you advance to the god-like realm?"

"Like Thanos and Viken, transform your state, collect the power of faith, and become a god?"

"Or is it like the path deduced by the Speaker of the Parliament, replacing the power of emotions with one's own understanding of the world, and replacing the power of faith with the real environment corresponding to the understanding of the world. The impact of the two is superimposed and integrated with each other, and the impact is promoted to become a god-like one!"

As soon as Lucien's question came out, the three Douglass came to their senses and turned their attention to Ivan Vincent. Their eyes were hot and full of curiosity.

"My promotion path is a bit special. It's neither of the two paths. I realized the reality of the world and knew the secret of immortality, so I was promoted to a godlike person!"

"But strictly speaking, my promotion path is closer to the god-like path deduced by the Speaker!"

"The secret of immortality?!"

Douglas and the others exclaimed, their pupils dilated, and they looked at Ivan Vincent in confusion, their voices full of disbelief.

"Yes, it's the secret of immortality. Haven't you all seen it?"

"Is that really the secret of immortality?!"

Fernando frowned, looked at Ivan Vincent suspiciously, and said to himself.

"The secret of immortality is the picture of the starry sky. What kind of secret of immortality is that? No matter how you look at it, you can't see any mystery in it?"

"Your Excellency Fernando, don't let your narrow vision limit your knowledge. Sometimes the reality of the world is far beyond your imagination. Don't rush to conclusions and deny things you don't understand!"

Ivan Vincent's eyes were deep and he reminded Fernando very seriously that the philosophy of the arcanist is to seek truth from facts. No matter how much he discovers a result that subverts his own three views, he will not easily deny the result, but try to study and analyze it. The internal principles underlying the existence of a phenomenon.

"Fernando, have you forgotten that we haven't discovered the existence of planets in the universe until now? Even if we look back at the world below, we can't see it. It seems to be covered by some force, but there is something hidden in the immortal chamber. Looking at the starry sky, there may be some connection between the two. If we can crack this mystery, we may be able to touch the secret of immortality."

Douglas analyzed the situation of the Immortal Chamber from a purely arcane perspective and looked at Ivan Vincent thoughtfully.

"The starry sky scene in the Immortal Chamber may really be related to the inability to discover the existence of the planet!"

Lucien was most familiar with the starry sky scene. It was the starry sky in his previous life. He had some vague clues about the appearance of this starry sky scene, and he thought more about the reality of the world. It was just because of his Nowadays, the realm is too low to see the reality behind the fog, so I can only keep it in my heart for the time being, waiting for verification in the future.

"Your Excellency Ivan Vincent, you are right to remind me that I am narrow-minded!"

Fernando, the hair dryer, actually admitted that he was wrong. This was simply unbelievable, and both his old friend Douglas and his student Lucien were stunned.

Although Fernando has a violent personality, he is not stubborn. He is a great arcanist. As long as what you say makes sense and is correct, he will accept it. Otherwise, he would not stand out from hundreds of millions of people and become the leader among all magicians. The legendary pinnacle magician at the top of the magician.

"If the Secret of Immortality is true, then it would be a shame for Mardemos. He followed us with great effort and entered the Secret of Immortality, but he thought the Secret of Immortality was a scam!"

"Mardimos has always regarded himself as the smartest creature, but in my opinion, his brainlessness is about the same as the abyss. How could the secret of immortality be placed directly there and be understood so easily? The secret of immortality should be a phenomenon, the same as the astrological trajectory, the nature of elements, the natural geography, and the development of living things, but it contains the mystery of immortality, and it must be studied to gain anything!"

"After Maldimos saw the starry sky, he didn't ask a few questions and left in disappointment. This shows that it is only a little smarter than the will of the abyss, and still can't get rid of the nature of a low-IQ creature!"

Fernando's mouth is really poisonous. This is a typical arcanist's thinking. How can Maldimos, the Lord of Hell, a natural god, have such a thing?

When Douglas heard this, he looked at Fernando with an aggrieved face and extremely resentful.

"I usually criticize me for having too many questions, and now I'm mocking Mardimos for not asking a few questions. Is it true that everything he does is wrong?"

Fernando rolled his eyes in disgust, looked at Douglas with disdain, and said with disgust.

"Don't you know what you are like? You keep asking questions every day, and you never have time to relax!"

Everyone was talking about other things and about to disperse, when suddenly Ivan Vincent spoke.

"Lucien, my Arcane Research Institute still lacks a person in charge. Are you willing to join the Arcane Research Institute?"

Everyone stopped and looked at Ivan Vincent in surprise. Who didn’t know that Ivan Vincent’s Arcane Research Institute was just an empty shell. If it weren’t for the purpose of defrauding the Magic Council of research funds, Ivan Vincent would have been there. Sen didn't even need the space for the research institute, let alone the researchers. Now it's strange to suddenly recruit Lucien.

Lucien also heard from his teacher Fernando about Ivan Vincent defrauding research funds, and was secretly envious. Now that he heard that Ivan Vincent suddenly recruited him, he was a little unclear about what he meant.

"Your Excellency Ivan Vincent, what is your purpose in letting me enter the Arcane Research Institute?"

"I plan to promote some of my research results and enter the market. I need someone to host it. I think you are a suitable candidate!"

"Your Excellency Ivan Vincent, I have dedicated my entire life to the arcane arts and do not intend to get involved in other matters, so I am sorry to let you down!"

Lucien looked solemn and firmly refused Ivan Vincent's solicitation, and bowed to apologize very apologetically.

Ivan Vincent looked at Lucien very calmly, and was not angry because of Lucien's rejection. He just said lightly.

"Oh! That's it. I originally wanted to give you 20% of the shares, and I was going to provide the latest experimental equipment for the Arcane Research Institute, and I was also going to give you some guidance on arcane magic research. But now it seems that I have to change people! "

"Your Excellency Ivan Vincent, you have misunderstood. What I mean is that I am worried that I am not worthy of your respect!"

"But since you think so highly of me, I'm willing to give it a try!"

Lucien's face changed again and again when he heard Ivan Vincent's generous conditions. Finally, his face was full of awareness and determination, and he said decisively.

Ivan Vincent looked at Lucien with a half-smile, and asked with a slight tease.

"Aren't you going to dedicate your life to arcane magic?"

"The Arcane Research Institute is at the forefront of arcane research in the Magic Council. Joining it allows you to have access to the latest arcane theories. This in itself is to pursue the true meaning of arcana, and it does not violate my beliefs."

The smile on Ivan Vincent's face became more obvious, and several others also smiled, looking at the flexible Lucien, their eyes full of fun.

"Not reluctantly?"

"Don't force it!"

Lucien said categorically that as long as he hesitated for a second, he was sorry for himself and for the generous conditions given by Ivan Vincent! You’ve given so much, so why force it? Not to mention just being the head of the Arcane Research Institute, even being the housekeeper for Ivan Vincent, Lucien didn't think there was any problem.

Ivan Vincent looked at Lucien, whose eyes were shining with golden light, nodded with satisfaction, and said very casually.

"In this case, from today on, you will be the deputy director of the Arcane Research Institute. Later, you can report the necessary experimental equipment and materials to me, and I will take care of it!"

Lucien nodded repeatedly with a happy look on his face. He became the deputy director of the Arcane Research Institute. Not only did it have the above benefits, but it also meant that he had an extra backer, even if he was extremely unpleasant to him. The Pale Hand also needs to worry about Ivan Vincent's attitude, which is very important to Lucien, because it means that he can publish some more impactful research theories without worrying about the revenge of others.

After Ivan Vincent finished talking about the matter, he stood up and was about to leave the conference room. Suddenly he thought of something again and looked back at Lucien and said.

"By the way, the research funding of the Arcane Research Institute requires that the institute publishes some important research theories every year before it can continue to allocate funds. If the research institute needs the best experimental equipment and materials, it must produce impressive results. I can’t keep using my previous research papers to top up the amount, lest people misunderstand that I defrauded research funds, I’ll leave this matter to you!”

"This is not a misunderstanding. The matter of defrauding research funds has been spread among high-level arcanists, and everyone knows it!"

Everyone looked at Ivan Vincent, who looked innocent, with a strange expression on his face. They looked at each other, and the same thought came to their minds at the same time. Douglas, in particular, was a co-conspirator at the time. He helped sign the application report and helped convince the members of the Supreme Council of the Magic Council to establish a shell laboratory like the Arcane Research Institute.

Lucien was stunned for a moment before he realized. He had no objection to the work assigned by Ivan Vincent. He had a plug-in called the Library of Souls, and he could easily develop new theories. However, some theories were not practical. It is too subversive, and it is very likely that many magicians will not be able to accept it, leading to the collapse of their cognitive world and direct headshots. He is not Ivan Vincent, and he cannot withstand the hostility of other magicians. If he is assassinated , now he is only a seventh-level magician, and he will most likely perish as an eighth-level arcanist.

"Your Excellency Ivan Vincent, this matter is not difficult, but my thesis found that if it causes the collapse of many people's cognitive world, what should we do?"

Lucien had a hesitant look on his face and asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, you can give your paper to me for review. As long as it is correct, I can sign it for you. If anyone is resentful, let him come to me!"

"Why don't you just shoot your head? What's the big deal? Those who can't keep up with the times will be abandoned by the times sooner or later!"

Ivan Vincent said without hesitation, with a sarcastic smile on his face, seemingly full of contempt for those magicians who were unable to accept new ideas and new discoveries.

After Ivan Vincent finished speaking, he left the conference room very coolly. Lucien's worries were not worth mentioning to him. Who doesn't know that he, Ivan Vincent, is a headshot maniac with a notorious reputation? , making countless arcanists love and hate it, but they are helpless.

Lucien seemed to have obtained Shang Fang's sword, and a smile appeared on his face. With Ivan Vincent's words, he could let go and do something big without worrying about the revenge of other magicians. .

Fernando felt a little headache looking at the motivated students gearing up, pinched his eyebrows with his fingers, and said distressedly.

"Lucien, you'd better restrain yourself. Although Mr. Ivan Vincent is helping you, don't worry about retaliation, but you also need to consider your reputation. You don't want to become the second generation. Headshot maniac!"

"The second generation headshot maniac?"

"This title seems good too!"

Lucien murmured to himself, rubbing his chin with his fingers, his eyes full of interest, and seemed to be very interested in this title.

Fernando knew something about his student's character. He was stingy, greedy for money, bold, and liked to cause trouble. He was afraid that the world would not be in chaos. Seeing Lucien's expression, he felt even more headache-ridden. Once his expression became serious, he would display the majesty of a teacher. .

"Fernando! Stop talking. Ivan is right. The old-fashioned magicians will be eliminated by the times sooner or later!"

Douglas raised his hand and stopped Fernando's attempt to persuade Lucien. His blue eyes were filled with warmth and kindness, and he looked at Lucien and warned him very gently.

"Ivan, I have taken a fancy to you, which shows that you also have the potential to be a legendary magician, or even a great arcanist!"

"You can just let it go. If you just use some conservatives who are unwilling to accept new theories and can't keep up with the times as the price, you can exchange for a great arcanist for the Magic Council. I think this is an acceptable price! "

Douglas understood Ivan Vincent's character. Although he seemed a little idle and extremely tired, he never did anything meaningless. He suddenly wanted to make Lucien the head of the Arcane Research Institute. He obviously wanted to To cultivate Lucien, he believes that Lucien has the value of cultivation. Douglas, as the president of the Magic Council, will naturally support such a thing. He will never let those conservative and backward magicians influence Lucien. growing up.

Fernando was overjoyed when he saw that Douglas had expressed his stance. Lucien had Ivan Vincent and Douglas as his backing, and with him as the Grand Arcanist, the three Grand Arcanists stood up for him, so he could rest easy. There is no need to worry about other factors, so I won’t say anything more.
