arthur was just a small part of the lives of the players on earth. even the most bone ash players could only stay online for as long as zhao xu.
To these native residents, Arthur was their everything.
in the past, zhao xu didn’t have any resources, so he had to rely on himself for everything.
Even though he was a player, he was already a level 5 wizard. Even if he transmigrated now, he would be able to live a good life.
Even a few Ordinary level 3 spells were enough to bring him enough wealth. And so, Zhao Xu started to have the right and the capital to train and choose his own subordinates.
the mages of the floating city followed the lead of the mage association, and he could only befriend like-minded people at best. if he wanted to get the support of a low-circle mage, it would be difficult for him to convince them as he was only a third-circle mage if he did not reveal his trump card, such as his divinity.
Zhao Xu had come to the civil service Academy to take up a teaching position, and he had unknowingly gotten this great opportunity.
the students in the civil service academy, no matter how ugly they were, had one advantage that was hard to hide. they had basically gone through a political trial on the surface, and at least they looked like they had a clean family background.
In fact, due to their supporting occupations, there were fewer cases of other organizations infiltrating their ranks.
In terms of background, this Clinton in front of Zhao Xu could be considered one of the cleanest people in his class. He didn’t have any family background or any ties to him.
moreover, he had a mission for revenge, which drove him to work hard to become stronger.
Zhao Xu could also use this to make the other party work for him.
This was also why after Zhao Xu cast the spell and saw that it was Ellington who had stood up to admit his mistake, he had chosen to call him out to talk about it in detail.
When Clinton heard that Zhao Xu could help him become a wizard, he didn’t go wild with joy. Instead, he just stood there in a daze. even though he knew in his heart that it was impossible.
If he could become a mage by investing resources, then the number of people in his ” mentor’s profession ” class would be reduced by at least half.
who would reject a high-skilled partner and go looking for a low-skilled one?
It was because becoming a mage was an extremely difficult task.
One’s aptitude and sufficient hard work were both indispensable.
if one could become a mage just by increasing intelligence, then the top mage families would have a way to increase their intelligence.
this was also the reason why ellington was so dejected after knowing that he would never be able to become a mage.
But when he looked at this young homeroom teacher, he didn’t question him. No matter what, as long as the other party could help him take revenge, it would be fine.
even if it was just one step on the road to revenge, it was enough.
And after Zhao Xu made this promise, he also had a rough idea of what was going on in his heart.
At this moment, Zhao Xu noticed that the man’s outer robe was slightly torn, so he asked, ” “Is the training of an instructor that expensive?”
ellington just smiled bitterly. ” the assets left behind by the family were enough for me and my mother to grow old. however, i wanted to join their group, so i had to spend money in some places. i didn’t want my mother to worry, so i had to cut it from other expenses. Moreover, if they wear ordinary clothes, they’ll be able to feel the difference between them and me, and it’ll serve as a foil.”
zhao xu was a little taken aback when he heard this. if ellington didn’t have a blood feud with someone, he would probably be the type of person who liked to be taken advantage of and would suffer the most.
this kind of character was naturally very considerate as an underling, but the problem was that it was easy to get angry and get angry. no wonder he was the first to stand up and take the blame.
His previous misperception had only been concealed by the other party’s cold attitude.
However, the other party’s attempt to integrate into the other party’s circle was indeed a helpless move.
based on ellington’s current development path, he would probably be able to get a good position in the future with the help of his classmates.
As for the path ahead, if he managed to climb up to a certain rank in the city Hall system of Mystra, he might really be able to build a good relationship with mid to high-level mages. After all, mages had families to take care of.
in the end, he would be able to find enough experts to take revenge for him.
zhao xu shook his head and said decisively, ” i’ll sign you up as a teaching assistant later. this position is also a part time job for students. you can get a bonus while you’re there. ”
There was a hesitant look on Clinton’s face, but when he saw how decisive Zhao Xu was when he said this, and the fact that he was saying this for leclinton’s sake, he couldn’t find any way to reject him in a tactful way.
“Then you should change your clothes first and inform them that they can change too. Then, follow me to the Academy’s administrative office to complete the procedures. As for the operation in the afternoon, I need you to lead the way.”
Immediately, Clinton looked at Zhao Xu with a terrified expression on his face. this place? ”
but at this moment, zhao xu was already flipping through a book on mysticism with his head lowered. clinton realized that he had misunderstood something, so he turned around and left.
Zhao Xu only raised his head after the man disappeared from his sight, but he felt a little strange. If it was a player who understood the culture of gay friends, he could understand their reaction. Logically speaking, the people of Arthur should not be so sensitive.
could it be that the other party had this kind of trauma before? Then, he thought about the shape of her face and her voice, and Zhao Xu suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body.
in the end, it was still difficult for a straight man like him to accept such things.
But Zhao Xu immediately turned his attention to the arrangements that he was going to make for Ellington.
for the rest of today’s journey, he also needed to carefully assess the other party to see what level of team he could form.
After he got his hands on the divine persona fragments, he might have to build some of the most basic framework first.
when zhao xu saw the conflicted and relieved look on clinton’s face, he couldn’t help but laugh to himself.
In this world, how could there be so many benefits of two-timing?
within the scope of his authority, he promised ellington a position with subsidies, which in itself cut off the connection between ellington and the original group. especially since the other party’s schedule for the day had been dominated by him, he had missed the golden time for the best explanation.
And after being punished by Zhao Xu, the original class group naturally started to have a bad relationship with him. Now that they saw that Ellington was going to be used by him immediately, they definitely wouldn’t accept him as unreservedly as before. Who knew if he had turned on them and become a spy?
that was why zhao xu had intentionally used this method to force clinton to completely lean towards his side. This was also the reason why Zhao Xu had specifically asked Ellington to go and inform them.
at this time, most of the students in the classroom were shivering with wet clothes. even if they were wearing waterproof coats, they still couldn’t resist the strength of the ‘blizzard’ spell. the rain directly flowed down their necks.
there were many rules in arthur, but there was one that would never be broken. if someone stronger than you tried to reason with you, you could only accept it no matter how unwilling you were.
——-
after he finished with all the paperwork for ellington, zhao xu dragged him along with him and prepared to head to their next destination, which was the family of another student, peter.
There were a total of five students who were absent from today’s class, and four of them had extraordinary backgrounds. At the very least, Zhao Xu was able to find the voices of famous legendary Wizards from their bloodlines when he looked at the ” history of the wizard’s heraldry ” in his mind.
many families had even begun to operate in mystra when the second goddess of magic was still alive, and they had directly witnessed the history of the third goddess of magic becoming a god.
And the person Zhao Xu was going to find this time was Peter, who had once been an apprentice wizard.
It was reasonable to say that the other party’s talent was not bad. The ten years of apprentice wizard courses for ordinary people, Peter had completed it in just two to three years.
Although he couldn’t be compared to the real geniuses, he was still considered one of the best among the magic apprentices he entered.
however, the strange thing was that in the early stages of the awakening ceremony, she gave up the opportunity to become a mage because of mental illness. the floating city then complied with his wish to become an officer of mystra’s affairs, and directly arranged for him to transfer to a civilian academy.
later on, the academy also pitied peter’s potential and directly assigned him to study in the ” mentor ” professional training class, where the children of the big shots gathered.
peter did not disappoint. according to the information on the materials, he would be able to be promoted to a level 1 mentor smoothly this month. therefore, his skipping class this time could be said to be specially approved by the school.
zhao xu wanted to find a few lackeys with clean backgrounds, so he naturally came over to take a look at this person.
After looking through all the praises for Peter in the student information, Zhao Xu turned his head around and looked at Ellington, who was also sitting in the carriage. After going through all this, his expression had softened quite a bit.
“How did you feel when you interacted with the other party?”
when clinton heard this, he frowned. ” actually, i don’t have much contact with him, but he’s getting along well with everyone. As for Peter, who was unable to become a mage even after reaching the last step, everyone is in the same boat.”
“Then why are you frowning?” zhao xu asked sharply. the horse carriage had just run over a piece of rock that had jutted out and it had started to shake slightly, and even the entire carriage was shaking.
Ellington did not expect wizard zhongxia to be so direct. After a moment of awkwardness, he continued, ” “If I get too close to him, I’ll have a bad feeling. It’s the kind of sad memories that will slowly emerge.”
“i see.” Zhao Xu said to himself, but in his heart, he had already made a cross for the other party.
Now, he would rather choose someone stupid than someone with an extra background story.
There weren’t many educated and literate people in Arthur, so his first choice was to choose a Civilian Academy in the city of Mystra, which had a decent average level of knowledge.
he didn’t have a few years to wait for the civilians to receive enough education. he needed to pick up what was already available. This was also the reason why they chose Ellington, who knew how to take the blame first and had an uncomplicated background.
but after hearing what clinton said, zhao xu had already given up on peter.
Since the tragedy that happened in his family when he was young, Ellington was definitely more sensitive to certain things related to mystery than others after he received training from his ” mentor.
but zhao xu still had to go and meet him personally to verify ellington’s talent in this area.
the driver quickly pulled on the reins and stopped the horses from moving forward. zhao xu and ellington also got off the carriage.
zhao xu said a few words to the coachman who was in charge of driving the carriage for the academy and then let him go back first.
the winter in mystra was already beginning to be a little bleak. the pedestrians on the road would sometimes unconsciously wrap themselves in their outer clothing when walking.
even the double-story house where peter’s family lived had its doors and windows tightly closed.
zhao xu walked over to the metal door and gently knocked on the visitor’s clock above him. it used the principle of vibration to make the clock in the room ring as well, telling the owner that there was a visitor.
Zhao Xu could hear the faint sounds coming from inside the house, but no one came to open the door.
generally, this kind of painted red wall, which looked similar to the style of small western-style houses on earth, was very popular among the middle class. moreover, this place was close to the central area. Therefore, most of the people who could live in this house could afford to hire servants.
Even if Zhao Xu hadn’t sent in his invitation beforehand, the owner of the house would have been very rude if he had waited until the bell tolled for the sixth time with his servants around.
zhao xu, who had been through a lot, started to frown.
