Archmage Daily Research Report

While we were talking, my cell phone rang suddenly, and Mel’s raven flopped like a real raven. I couldn’t help but smile and touched the cold head of the bird, and the raven pecked at my finger. For a moment - he was going to peck the phone - I think I know why Mel keeps breaking the phone... but he found my hand in the front and didn't use much force, so he just pecked.

While pinching Raven's sharp beak, I went to answer the phone - it seems to be the number in the yard?

Looking for me in the yard?Finally fired?

As soon as I picked it up, I was sorry to hear that it was Kuwait, my assistant, and his voice sounded like he was amnesty, and said eagerly: "Your Excellency, Mr. Doug just came. I am very angry to see that you are not in the office. Tell me to call you right away, and get your uniform on and come here right away."

"Aren't I suspended?" I wondered.

"Uh...Master Doug said that he didn't allow you not to come to work...you...don't always fight against Mr. Doug, let alone now you...you broke up with Mr. Speaker, if Mr. Doug wants to What you do is really easy..." Kuwait lowered his voice as he spoke, as if he was afraid that I would get angry.

...I don't have such a bad temper, Kuwait, as long as the five-star old man doesn't come into my laboratory——

Uh, but I found that the demon in front of me is now as stiff as a piece of hard iron, I seem to see Mel's expression blacker than the black robe again, the neck of the five-star old man has a lot of fat... I feel that the shadow is gone It should be easy to twist off... so I couldn't help but let go of its poor little mouth and petted its head again, counting it as a way to appease the sulking Mel.

"Doug won't do anything to me," I said. "After all, his level of magic is really... hard to describe."

After thinking about it, I think it's better not to say "Doug's magic sucks" in front of young children, I'm afraid it will cause bad effects-young children will see that the magic is so bad that they can climb It would be terrible to get to a high position, not to learn well, and to play politics all the time. I don't want to see that after a few years, all my former assistants will become fat people with bureaucratic accents.

Still a fat man with bad magic and a bureaucratic accent.

"...I'm not talking about magic!" Kuwait's voice was particularly desperate, "Anyway, please come here now, please. Lord Doug said, all of us are required to gather, and all of our research institutes must go to Murphy. Your Excellency, Mr. Sturt."

He seems to be crying again. This is really my favorite crying assistant. Unfortunately, he is a purebred human. It would be great if he had the blood of a brook pine plain hard shell turtle. The tears of that kind of turtle are very expensive, because magic The material dealer told me that it seems immoral to make a turtle cry all the time, but Kuwait doesn't need others to do it, it just winks its eyes and then cries.

But since his tears serve no purpose, I had to say yes before they contaminate the supplies cabinet in my office.

……

"?" I hung up the phone and looked at Mel strangely, "You still have a speech today?"

"No." Mel changed from sulking to super innocent in a second. He answered me suspiciously, "Today's summit will not be broadcast live to the outside world. It's all high-level plotting and miscellaneous things. I just go and sit down."

But under my repeated questioning, he suddenly realized, "Oh, I remembered, the first time I sent an emissary to look for you yesterday, didn't a politician come over to disturb you in the middle of the conversation, and that five-star old man also came Oh, he seems to have said something... cooperation?"

"Cooperation? With the research institute? Cooperation with what?" The key is, "You actually agreed?"

Mel said very flatly: "I don't know the content, I didn't listen."

I couldn't hold back my laughter again, and after holding it back, I said, "...All right, I'll cheer you on later."

"Wait!" Mel called me suddenly, "Don't listen to that fat old man, don't wear the uniform of your research institute, that five-star old man wears it himself, it's too ugly!"

"...You just think the five-star old man is not good-looking."

"It doesn't look good anyway." Mel replied firmly.

I shook my head helplessly, "Then what should I wear?"

The magician tilted his head, opened his mouth suddenly, and released a neatly folded magic robe from the magic space in his body. I was surprised and picked it up—it was the same style as the one that Mel had that day. Even the embroidery is perfect.

Mel's paws unconsciously started scratching the table again, and he said, "I like to wear this style the most, and the embroidery is also my favorite...I specially asked the elf craftsman to help me make several pieces of the same...your magic robe Let me wash it by accident, so... don't think it's what I wore. "

How can you think... um, ah, wait... Mel, it's broken?How hard did you rub my robes?Or, what did you rub it with?

Probably because my question was particularly obvious, Mel's magician jumped up and said, "I just didn't use Shadow Dance but did it myself because I was afraid that I couldn't do it well. Who knew that I miscalculated my own ability to do housework... ..."

Maybe I was laughing a little too obviously, the raven hung its head, closed its mouth, and was destroying my table with its claws again.

...Oh, no, this will not be my desk soon, this is the desk of the Institute, so let him scratch it, I guess if I tell the stewards of the Institute, it is the Archmage Mephisto who grabbed it Not only will they not be angry, but they have to put on an exhibition to show off!

Before he scratched the table, I could only smile and say, "Thank you, I wanted to tell you the first time I saw you, and I really like your robe."

"That's great! Put it on!" Mel said happily, looking up again.

I have to say, Mel's robes are better than mine, and mine was a discounted one from a finished product store, and it's the most mage-like one I can pick out-uh, yes , although it is indeed a magic robe store, but... I don't know what happened to the clothing designers in the past two years. The styles of the new robes are generally the style that Jasmine would like. I really don't want to be "death" A heavy metal smoke mage".

I still feel that if the waist is hollowed out, or there are holes all over the body, or even one shoulder is exposed, a bard can barely wear it like this, and a mage can wear it like this... I'm afraid I can't help but throw the forbidden spell, even if The sorcerer wearing this is Jasmine, so at most I won't throw the death curse.

Fortunately, I burned Jasmine's pair of ripped French pants (someone thought the robe was inconvenient and asked to design a bodysuit style? How restrictive! Besides, what does a mage look like without a robe.), causing her After having to stay invisible all day to assist me in my experiments, she never dared to appear in front of me wearing this kind of air-leaking clothes... Although I think it's not necessarily because she realized the mistake, but because— —Later, her magic power was not enough, so she had to change it to a half-invisibility technique. The lower body was invisible, and the upper body was exposed. After being seen by Kuwait who entered the door, the poor child cried all afternoon. What happened to Kuwait? Jasmine, who was so sunny and positive, almost jumped off the building.

...Well, almost, because in the end I reminded her that the mage who fell to death should not be called my apprentice. I don't accept apprentices who can't even slow down, it's too embarrassing.

As a mage, if he is not dignified and rigorous in his clothes, he is likely to be as slack academically. I know that modern young people always like to be trendy, so I don’t mind if they dress up like undead creatures, but at least don’t Come to my laboratory like that (because there was a skull decoration chain hanging on Jasmine’s waist, it turned out that it was an ordinary jewelry produced by the assembly line of a clothing factory, it was not resistant to magic, it was torn off by magic and fell into the crucible, Jasmine was almost killed The splattered potion turns into a real death banshee), and they have no problem running naked during the break.

I couldn't help talking to Mel about this issue, and he said: "There really aren't any good magic robe shops in Shengguang City. If we have a chance, let's go to the Yinxin Fortress. There are several old shops there that have made magic robes for thousands of years." Well, the craftsmanship inherited from the family, even if you don’t order it and buy the finished product directly, the quality can be guaranteed; then we find elves to make accessories, their craftsmanship is not only beautiful, but also can superimpose miniature magic circles as decorative patterns.”

"Silver Heart Fortress, I've always wanted to go there, the 'Capital of Secret Magic', the 'Arcane Orb' on the southern border, thousands of years ago it was the city of mages." Go south to the elf land, so you should go there often?"

Mel nodded: "Yeah, after we've been busy for a while, let's take a trip to the Yinxin Fortress. Speaking of which, I haven't been there for a while."

"Okay." I nodded and said as I put on my robe.

"Sipe! This looks so good on you!" Mel happily flew around me, "I have other embroidered styles of the same style, you must try them all, they look great!"

"...Mel." I paused buttoning my hands, and said helplessly, "This is a full set of gown-style robes for formal occasions, and I just put on the innermost layer..."

Mel replied confidently: "Because the mage wearing it looks good, so it looks good even in a quick rag."

……

stop, stop!Mel, when will we get rid of the habit of complimenting each other when nothing happens?We can't go on like this forever!

We don't fall under the curse of "praising each other all the time" do we?

The ubiquitous politicians interrupted the conversation just right for us before my mouth could not be controlled and began to respond to Mel's praise, and Mel's emissary jumped on the ledge with great reluctance to say that the military policy of the Federal Parliament The minister has something to do with him, but anyway, we can meet again later, so he is not obsessed with watching me get dressed. After Mel left, I tidied up my clothes carefully and woke up Shadow to help me adjust my back on the straps.

But I thought about it for a while, I don't have any accessories that can match this solemn robe, what should I do, of course I can run around with my hair disheveled in my own plain robe, but I am wearing Mel's robe——

"Sipe, this is for you!"

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly saw the metal raven going back and forth, rushing back, throwing a box on the table, and then explained: "I have to take back the magic envoy soon, I saw your research institute The old Mr. Dean, he wants to talk to me." Said I turned and ran away in a hurry——

Well, no wonder Mel became serious. I have been too busy to visit the old dean for a while. Maybe I can chat for a while today... Oh yes, I still have a bottle of conditioner I made last time. Now I have a space ring, which can be easily carried over.

The box that Mel dropped was...Yah!Matching accessories for my space ring!

Did Mel do all of this?Mel's craftsmanship is also great, no wonder he can make the magic weapon so lifelike. When I used paper origami magic weapons earlier, because the handwork was poor, they were all made of origami airplanes. Jasmine told me that a mage threw them all over the place. Paper airplanes look a lot like performance art. I used her computer to search what performance art is, um... In order not to become performance art, I practiced hard before learning to origami birds.

Sigh... At that time, I won't make Mel's tower full of crooked golems that I can't bear to look at, right?So what should I do, should I attend the sculpture lecture at the Academy of Art?

I thought too far!I picked up the beautifully braided headband, and suddenly felt so ashamed... I... I can't comb my hair... What should I do?I touched my hair, I...how about I wash it first, I was busy chasing cyborgs yesterday, and I didn’t wash my hair, well, I’d better wash it first, and think about how to comb it while washing, next time Jasmine should lend me her hair to practice.

That's right, Jasmine's computer is still here. I can look online for Mel's hairstyle that was photographed by reporters before.

……

Fortunately, Mel taught me shadow dancing, otherwise I wouldn't know how to do such a complicated hairstyle for myself - it's a bit like an elf's hairstyle, this headband is actually going to be wrapped around the hair and braided together?Does the forehead chain really have to be entangled?How could Mel come up with such an amazing hairstyle!

……

When I finally combed my hair almost as neatly as Mel's (except for the different length, of course), I hurried to the research institute and found that only the guards were reading comics in the sentry box, and there was no one in the whole institute.

Ah——I'm late, I forgot to check the time, I knew I would go directly to the summit site, but I might have to use invisibility or something to sneak in, after all, I don't have the qualifications to enter, I don't follow the five-star old man If the team goes, I will be blocked.

It doesn't matter, if I really can't get in, I'll wait outside for Mel. Before I go out, I brought another notebook of mine, which is about spiritual spells. There are still a few pages locked by me with several layers of black magic protection. I am going to send these to Mel. These are about soul magic. The apartment we allocated has a caretaker. I am more afraid that they will enter the door without authorization, so I have to lock it with black magic. After putting it in Mel's place, I have to put These protections have been changed to be relatively mild, in case Jasmine and the others encounter mischief.

Ok?

I suddenly frowned. There were a large group of journalists and spectators outside the summit venue, and they couldn’t get through the street. The wide main street was full of people... So, the guards on duty seemed completely unaware ——

Outside the bustling crowd, several cyborgs were climbing up the outer wall of the building!

It's these guys again!
