Chapter 369
Hearing the surname "Augusta," Jie Ming felt a bit familiar.
It seemed to have left a mark in the depths of the dust of memory.
He thought slightly, and a vague memory belonging to the apprentice period nearly a thousand years ago surfaced—at that time, in the same batch as him, there was a person from the Augusta family who was called a "little genius."
Unfortunately, the other party chose the combat system.
He also remembered teasing that proud son of heaven with Victor and Amy.
"It's really a distant memory..." Jie Ming sighed in his heart.
Unknowingly, these things had already become old things from a thousand years ago.
Regardless of lifespan, for low-tier wizards, a thousand years of time is already a quite long time.
At this time, Wizard Augusta had also smiled and introduced Rex beside him to Clark: "This is Rex, my only disciple, who still has some talent in alchemy."
Rex immediately stepped forward and saluted Clark respectfully: "Seen the Clark cabinet."
Only at the moment of getting up, he glanced at the direction where Jie Ming was quickly, and the corners of his mouth moved imperceptibly, sending a tacit look.
Jie Ming understood, and also raised his eyebrows with an imperceptible amplitude.
Although everyone present, except for Junior Brother Ending Age and his offspring, the rest of the ages were counted in thousands of years, which could be considered "old monsters."
But in front of their own mentor, they would always unconsciously reveal a few "childlike innocence" belonging to the young apprentice era.
After the greetings, Wizard Augusta ordered Rex: "Rex, you take Clark's few apprentices to the arranged residence first."
"Yes, mentor." Rex responded, then turned around and made a "please" gesture to Jie Ming and the others, his smile gentle and thoughtful.
Jie Ming, Wei Aola, and Ending Age and his son saluted the two mentors again and left the entrance.
Behind them came the voice of Wizard Augusta with an undisguised tone of envy: "Clark, you kid is really lucky, actually being able to find three good seedlings as disciples. Unlike me, after so long, I only found Rex, one who is to my liking..."
Clark smiled rarely, and didn't be humble, just praised: "This little guy Rex has good talent, you can be considered to have picked up a treasure."
"Forget it, when we reach our level, who doesn't know that as long as knowledge accumulation is deep enough, the so-called initial talent is not unchangeable..." Augusta's voice went far away, "You came just in time, we old guys are preparing to get together, since you caught up, let's go together..."
"Oh? Then it seems I'm lucky."
"Ah yes yes yes, you guys who play with fate have always been lucky... Damn! You guy is becoming more and more like those gods of the fate system..."
"Is there?"
"Look, it's this expression again!"
Listening to the conversation of the mentors gradually disappearing behind him, Jie Ming turned his attention back to the front.
Rex was now dutifully playing the role of a "tour guide," introducing the layout of Plane Nuolun 1 Academy and some precautions to several people.
Jie Ming remembered that Rex himself was not from here, it seemed that he had arrived a few days early and had done his homework specially.
Jie Ming and Wei Aola had a flat reaction to this, after all, they had seen many strange planes.
Plane Nuolun 1 Academy is also the headquarters of the Plane Nuolun workshop force, and its architecture is indeed magnificent enough, but it is not enough to make the two feel surprised.
But Ending Age and his son Kols were much more surprised, their eyes constantly looking at the strange scenery full of future sense and runes around them.
This is not difficult to understand, when they graduated, the elite trial system was probably already mature and standardized, and there was probably no chance to come to this workshop headquarters core in person.
Along the way, the level of wizards in Plane Nuolun 1 Academy has clearly increased a lot.
If the square outside is "wizards as mortals," then here is "gathering of strong people."
Fourth-tier and fifth-tier wizards can be seen everywhere, and even sixth-tier existences are common, truly "fourth-tier and fifth-tier are like dogs, sixth-tier walk everywhere."
Moreover, the forms of wizards have also become more diverse.
Besides those who maintain standard human forms, there are also many who present elemental creature characteristics—existences surrounded by flames, ice, or lightning, or spiritual creatures that are translucent like ghosts.
But without exception, they all wear wizard robes representing their identities, and they have a bearing of standing in the abyss when walking and talking.
However, Jie Ming keenly noticed that many wizards along the way, when noticing their group, would focus their eyes with wonder and exploration on Rex who was leading the way.
Jie Ming and Rex had a quite familiar relationship, so he asked very directly: "Rex, what did you do here? I see the eyes they look at you are unusual."
Rex heard this, and a smugness that could not be hidden appeared on his face, but his tone still maintained "humility": "Nothing, just arrived early with the mentor, and since I was idle, I solved a few small academic problems that had troubled them for a long time... So, I have a little bit of fame."
Looking at his expression, Jie Ming knew that these "few small academic problems" were absolutely extraordinary, and they were probably difficult problems that even local high-tier wizards felt tricky.
To this, Jie Ming expressed deep understanding.
After all, only people like him who carry "cheats" like the 【Great Dao Book Pavilion】 can better understand how "outrageous" the wisdom of native geniuses of the wizard civilization like Rex is.
Soon, Rex took them to a magnificent building that was extremely luxuriously decorated and had a style similar to a super-star hotel in his previous life.
He took the initiative to communicate with a waiter who was an alchemy doll at the front desk, and took back a few room cards that were flickering with faint light.
"These rooms are all equipped with small laboratories, if it's not enough, you can also apply for higher-tier laboratories directly, but then you have to spend points..."
While introducing, and after distributing the room cards to Jie Ming, Wei Aola, and Ending Age and his son, Rex prepared to say goodbye.
Before leaving, he seemed to remember something and said to Jie Ming: "By the way, Jie Ming, I also contacted David before, wanting to see if he could come. But unfortunately, he happened to go to participate in a plane war, and the time conflicted, so I guess he won't be able to catch up with this grand event of the grand-mentor's promotion."
Jie Ming nodded, a trace of regret flashing in his heart.
David could also be considered one of the few people he knew, although there was little contact, if they could reunite in such a grand event, it would be a good thing.
Unfortunately, time waits for no one.
"I hope everything goes well for him." Jie Ming said.
