Arcane brilliance, shining forever

Chapter 401 Admission and Resignation

About the 'the other person was too nice to me and I didn't find out why until the end'!

Taking a deep breath, extinguishing the random thoughts that flooded out of his mind, Lando began to think about what the elders of the Jin clan had said to him.

What the other party said was very clear, that he hoped that Lando could go to the former coordinates of the Hengguang universe to confirm whether that universe was completely destroyed or blocked by the power of time and space.

And to confirm it probably requires the power of time or space at the level of an arcane emperor.

Well, according to the elders, it should be possible to invite an arcane emperor himself, but this is obviously unrealistic!
So Lando, who had the gold pocket watch gifted by Xiao Jin, became the best candidate.

Lando asked in confirmation: "Even if I don't have the power of time, can I still detect the blocked constant light universe with this gold pocket watch?"

The elder nodded and said: "I can teach you some secrets of time power, and you will naturally be able to do this when the time comes, and these time secrets can also allow you to better control the time device, these are considered as one of the advance payments .”

remuneration!

Lando's eyes sparkled, if you mention this, then I won't be sleepy!

Lando immediately said: "The secrets of time are indeed very precious, but firstly, the path I'm on has no intersection with time at all, and secondly, these secrets are the prerequisites for me to confirm whether there is a constant light universe hidden there. How can this be regarded as an advance payment?" What about your reward?"

The elder said gently: "If you don't know these secret techniques, it will be difficult to sense the constant light universe blocked by the authority of time and space with the time instrument alone."

Lando spread his hands and said, "Then I don't care, anyway, the reward I want doesn't include time and secret techniques."

The elder was dumbfounded, and then said: "Okay, little guy, you won. These are my free sponsorships, so it's okay."

Lando immediately gave a thumbs up and praised: "The elder is magnificent!"

The elder smiled and said: "I once entrusted the strong men of the Arcane Empire to help me investigate. At that time, the price I offered was to give each of three different time spars in advance. If it can bring me news about the constant light universe , and thank you very much!"

"Now, if little friend Lando is willing to do me this favor, I am willing to give the same price."

Lando pondered and asked, "Time spar? Do you mean something like [Slumber Crystal]?"

The elder nodded and said, "Little friend, do you know the type of power of time?"

Lando asked suspiciously: "Accelerate, decelerate, time pause?"

The elder shook his head and explained: "Speaking of the types of time power, it can be roughly divided into three types...past, present and future!"

Lando: ...

Yesterday, today and tomorrow? !
"The [Crystal of Sleep] in your mouth is a name defined by the Arcane Empire based on its function. We, the Shijin Clan, actually call it [Crystal of Present]!"

The corners of Lando's mouth twitched. It is a consistent tradition in the Arcane Empire to name names according to their actual functions, so he was not surprised at all.

"The way you are using [Crystal of Present] now seems to us like mortals using gold to build walls and waste everything! The real purpose of [Crystal of Present] is to anchor itself and pay for your use time The price of power!"

"For example, after you use [Crystal of the Past] to lock yourself, no matter what kind of injury or negative status you receive, you only need to use the power of [Crystal of the Past] to refresh yourself, and you can return to the state before you were injured. But the use of such power generally requires payment!"

"For example, after you refresh yourself, because of time regression, even you will forget the experience of being injured, and [Crystal of Present] can pay the price on your behalf!"

"The same is true for [Future Crystal], and these are just the basic uses of these three time crystals. They can be given to you together, but if you want more advanced uses of them, then there will be another price!"

Seeing the smile on the elder's face, the corners of Lando's mouth twitched again.

The smile on the elder's face was restrained, and he asked calmly: "I've said so much, I believe you understand, so let me tell you what you think, this time, little friend Lando, will you accept it?"

Lando fell into deep thought...

First of all, after accepting this entrustment, you can immediately get three powerful time spars; secondly, since the empire has sent strong men to investigate, the danger near the constant light universe should still be controllable, those who once broke the constant light universe The existence should have already left; in the end, the event that Xiao Jinkou said can advance a certain time point by hundreds of years probably refers to this too!

The harvest is rich, and it seems feasible to accept the commission and go to explore.

Lando thought for a while and said, "Elder, I can take on this commission, but I have an important research to complete right now, so I'm afraid I won't be able to go there in a short time."

The elder's expression became a little melancholy and he said, "Can't it be completed in a short time?"

Lando nodded embarrassedly, and explained: "I have been preparing for this research for a long time, and it is impossible to stop midway. It may take one to two hundred years to complete it."

The elder's melancholy expression froze, and he asked, "How long?"

"One, 200 years." Lando said.

"Only one or two hundred years?" the elder asked.

Lando: ...

Elder: ...

Well, Lando, who is dealing with time life for the first time, is not very adaptable to their time scale, let alone them, Lando is not even able to adapt to the time brought by him as a long-lived species like a grand arcanist. Variety.

…………

Three days later, Lando left from the ancestral land of the Shi Jin clan.

Time secret realm, deep area.

Lando looked at Jin Qi's slowly disappearing figure, and looked away after a long time.

Opening his right hand, blue gold, dark gold, and purple gold, three thumb-sized prismatic crystals floated on his hand.

This is the reward that Lando received after accepting the entrusted task, [Crystal of the Past], [Crystal of the Present], [Crystal of the Future], no matter what the final result is, as long as he agrees to go, these are already his Everything is gone.

Once he can bring news of the constant light universe, and even the master of the Shijin clan, he will be rewarded even more generously.

The reason why I stayed for three days was mainly to learn those time secrets from the elders.

Although these time secrets only have specific effects, and they can only be casted with the help of a gold pocket watch or time crystal, they are considered good methods for Lando.

Clenching his right hand, the three time spars disappeared immediately.

The next step is to continue to search for the natural disaster of time in the deep area according to the plan, engrave it on the gold pocket watch, and collect the power of time by the way!

…………

More than a year has passed by.

Lando was escorted by the Arcanist of the Twin Towers to leave the Time Secret Realm.

Looking at the glorious scenery in the sky and feeling the peaceful flow of time around him, Lando let out a relieved sigh.

Although Lando has not yet reached the limit of the duration of time in the secret realm, his goal has basically been achieved, and the handover of the external rotating speaker still needs him to come forward in person.

Um, although for most of the rotating speakers, they don't care much about the final handover ceremony, after all, Lando is the first time to be the rotating speaker, and he still wants to go through the complete procedure.

Well, even though I'm lazy, it doesn't mean I'm not a good...rotating speaker!
Lando quietly returned to the Arcane Council without disturbing anyone, just like he had quietly left back then.

"Yo, Dag Cray, are you busy?" Lando greeted.

Dag Clay, who was burying his head in reviewing the documents, raised his head to see Lando in a daze, and was speechless for a while.

In the next few months, Lando didn't make any troubles, but devoted himself to the work of the rotating speaker.

According to the closeness of the relationship, the applications of the Silver Tower, Gastro College, and familiar arcanists were reviewed first, and the others were relatively casual.

If it is said that before becoming the rotating speaker, Lando actually had a very small social circle as a newly promoted Grand Arcanist, only the Grand Arcanists and Legendary Arcanists of the Silver Tower and Gastro Academy, plus mentors at most. Otto's relationship.

But after becoming the rotating speaker, Lando naturally had to deal with various departments of the empire and the great arcanists, so his own network was also broadened.

And this is also one of the main meanings of the empire's rotating speaker system!

"...From today, the empire will be in your hands, Dag Clay, don't let us seniors down!"

At the official handover meeting of the rotating speaker, Lando said emotionally to Dag Clay in an old-fashioned way, with a taste of recalling the glorious past.

Although the corners of Dag Clay's mouth twitched, he still cooperated with Lando's performance very decently, and accepted the seal of the rotating speaker, but his face was full of unlucky expressions.

There was no one absent in the huge venue, and there was warm applause at this time.

But if you look carefully, you will find that [-]% of the people sitting below are the assistants and staff of the Arcane Council, and the great arcanists who are really bored and come to participate in the handover meeting of the rotating speaker are only a very small number.

"Finally, I hand over the burden to an excellent junior like you, and I will be free from everything!"

Lando continued to be playful, patting Dag Clay on the shoulder with a face full of relief.

Dag Clay's expression almost collapsed even though he was a Grand Arcanist.

"Please, Lando, you are younger than me, can you stop talking to me in this tone?!" Dag Cray said speechlessly.

"You can't say that. Aspirations don't lie in your age. Although I am not as old as you, in every sense, I am your senior!"

Lando said with a smile on his face.

Dag Clay waved his hand feebly, alright, alright, whatever you say is whatever.

After laughing and laughing, Lando officially resigned as the rotating chairman of the Arcane Council, and his status was automatically downgraded to one of the members of the Arcane Council.

According to the current rotation system, as long as Lando doesn't take the initiative to apply, it will probably take at least several thousand years before it is his turn next time.

Compared with the rotating speaker, the members of the parliament are much more relaxed.

The only thing that requires real participation is the plenary session of the Arcane Council.

And this meeting will basically only be held when major events occur in the Arcane Empire. During the period when the empire was first established, this kind of meeting was quite frequent. Held once.

It is much easier now, the most recent plenary meeting of the Arcane Council dates back to five or six hundred years ago, and after that meeting, the empire has fully rolled out the new school system!

There are fewer and fewer plenary meetings now. On the one hand, it is because the Arcane Empire has gradually consolidated its actual dominance in the Arcane Universe. It has been a long time since there has been any threat from the outside to bring all the Grand Arcanists together to discuss.

Of course, there is a more important point, and that is the increase in the number of great arcanists!

At the same time, this also involves another right of the members of the Arcane Parliament, that is, the right to form small meetings!
A certain grand arcanist can make a proposal, as long as the proposal can get the support of a certain number of grand arcanists, after being reviewed by the rotating speaker and "No. [-]", the proposal can be handed over to these grand arcanists Take care of yourself.

For example, the "hell chaos" that happened before was proposed by the black shadow in the "five-member council", and more than 50 grand arcanists participated in it during the construction.

In the end, the layout and suppression of Hell was completed, and less than ten great arcanists were dispatched to achieve the goal!
With a relaxed pace, Lando returned to the Silver Tower, and then met the mentor Odo who seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

"Mentor!" Lando greeted with a smile on his face.

"The handover is over?" Otto asked.

"Well, the work is finally done, and the next thing is Dag Clay's business, although I didn't leave him any mess." Lando said leisurely.

Otto nodded and suddenly asked, "What are your plans next?"

Lando was taken aback by the question, and then said, "Of course I put all my energy into my own research, and you know that, my tutor, I have spent a lot of effort on this research. If I can succeed If so, my spiritual path will definitely take a big step forward!"

Otto looked at the scenery in the distance, with a slightly sad expression, and said quietly: "It stands to reason that after you step down as the rotating speaker, you should take over from me as the Pagoda Master of the Silver Pagoda."

Lando's face froze suddenly...

again? !
Hey, why should I add the word 'you'?

"Master Otto..." Lando cried with a bitter face.

In fact, the Silver Pagoda Master is much more relaxed than the rotating speaker. In theory, it will not delay his own research, and it can be convenient in many places, but...

After all, this is the leader of a faction. No matter how relaxed he is, he still has a lot of things to do.

This will undoubtedly further slow down Lando's research progress.

Seeing the expression of his precious disciple, Otto chuckled and said, "Look at you, those who don't know think they're going to do something to you!"

Shaking his head slightly, Otto said: "Don't worry, I haven't finished gathering the 'wool' of the Silver Tower, and you won't be able to be the owner of the Tower in a short time!"

"Mentor!~"(^o^)
"Get out!!!" (▼皮▼#)
"Okay!~" (*︶*).. .:*
