  Chapter 338 Hardworking

  The evening sun shines through the glass and falls on the brown desk, forming bright yellow spots.

  The study room was quiet, except for the occasional slight sound of the cold wind blowing outside, only the rustling of pages turning.

   After a while, Colin sighed and put down today's parliamentary announcements and newspapers, and slowly stood up.

  ‘There is still no information about the battle the day before yesterday. '

  At that time, the bright red figure who was suspected of being a believer of the gods, and the fierce and swift battle like thunder... made Colin, who had just walked out of the bookstore, feel inexplicably clouded.

   For the next two days, Colin has been paying attention to the follow-up news.

  However, apart from the rumors in the market, it was as if nothing happened, and there was no more movement.

  Yesterday he even went to the school to try to ask the instructor, but Atbold didn't even know about that battle...

  But Colin firmly believes that this is definitely related to the Crimson operation that Noyce mentioned to him before.

   I don’t know how Noyce’s improved Crimson Mark technique has improved…

   All along, in fact, he has been continuing to practice the Crimson Mark technique, and now the progress has reached more than 80, and he will be able to break the limit again soon.

  But Colin didn't think that the Crimson Mark technique, which broke the limit twice, could see through the deity's disguise that even Noyce was helpless at the moment.

   After all, the crimson marking technique he learned was only a simplified version, and the original version created by Noyce was probably at least a third-order witchcraft.

  However, gold paper is not extraordinary after all, maybe after breaking the limit, it will bring some new inspiration.

  If you can gain valuable inspiration, then go to Noyes again...By the way, you can also ask about today's battle.

   As for going to Noyce now... He didn't want to consume the precious patience of the congressman for him because of a little curiosity.

  Concentrating his thoughts, Colin walked down the stairs.

  The aroma of food wafted faintly from below, and Renee was busy in the kitchen.

  Today is the year 3585 in the Yanam calendar, December 31, New Year's Eve.

  Renee has been busy since early morning for the New Year's dinner.

  The fireplace in the hall is burning with flames, and the firewood crackles occasionally, and a warm atmosphere fills the entire space.

  Colin exhaled lightly, and walked briskly to the kitchen.

  The other three members of the family are here at this time.

   Renee was stewing seafood porridge in front of the stove, and Demi stepped on a low bench to help chop vegetables.

  Naxi flew to Demina with a potato in her arms, and flew to Renee with a spice bottle in her arms.

   "Master, you are here." Renee noticed his arrival, put down the spatula and turned around.

   "You go first." Colin waved his hand, and then asked, "Has anyone been here this afternoon?"

   "No, master." Renee shook her head, and then continued, "Speaking of which, those witches who often came to visit before may not have been here for a long time."

   Demi and Naxi on the side also greeted him.

   "Aren't you here yet?" Colin nodded slightly.

   As for the absence of those witches from Yulia, he didn't care.

  The reason why he asked Renee was because he invited Shelley, the king of rolls, to the New Year's dinner today.

   But it seems that she is going to step over.

  As for the mentor, he also invited him yesterday, but was declined.

  Mr. Atbold is becoming more and more reluctant to leave his residence.

  Walking out of the kitchen, there was only a trace of the orange sunset in the distance, and the sky became dim.

  Ring ring ring—

  The doorbell controlled by Nado in the living room rang suddenly, and the vines shook the pull rope constantly, reminding Colin that someone was visiting outside the door.

   Renee hurried out of the kitchen.

   "I'll go." Colin said, and then walked outside with a smile.

  He asked Shelley several times before finally convincing Shelley to come over.

  In a sense, it is a great achievement to let such a paper king delay his study time all night and come over for a meal.

   "Welcome." Colin opened the door and said with a smile.

   "...good evening." Shelley paused, stroked the hair on the side of the ear and said.

  She is still wearing a neat but old white black robe today, her face is facing the sky, but her beauty cannot be concealed, and she is holding a delicate brown wooden box in her right hand.

   "Here you are." Shelley continued, handing the present to Colin somewhat unaccustomed to it.

  She actually had a lot of contact with people, but it was the first time that she came to visit just for a meal like this.

   "Too polite." Colin raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly, but he didn't refuse, and took it over.

   There is no need to say no to the rich woman.

  The two walked towards the house together.

  When the distant horizon engulfed the last trace of orange, the three of Renee also prepared dinner.

  At Colin's insistence, the four of them plus an elf sat on a square table in the restaurant and started the dinner.

  The atmosphere is more harmonious than Colin imagined.

   Shelley didn't have any special reaction to sister Renee eating with them, and even talked about food production with Renee with a serious face.

   "If you want the fish soup to be white, you need to heat the water after frying, and you can also add more oil." Renee said.

   "Can't cold water work?"

   "It's more difficult." Renee continued to answer.

   Shelley nodded thoughtfully.

  Colin took a bite of food.

  In such a world where class is engraved in the bones, Shelley's performance is somewhat beyond his expectations.

  But Shelley's past is still a mystery to Colin.

   also asked, but Shelley didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask too much, only knowing that she is now alone in Neustadt.

  No relatives, no mentors, etc.

  In the second half of the dinner, he was the only one left to continue.

   Renee is already full and is waiting by the side.

  Demi was also full, and with Colin's consent, she and Naxi had already gone outside to play.

   "Shortly after the Chinese New Year, I may be away from the True Knowledge Society for a while."

   Shelley said suddenly that she hadn't stopped chopsticks yet, and was drinking milky white fish soup.

   There were three soups tonight, and most of them went into her stomach.

  Colin swallowed the food in his mouth, paused and asked, "When exactly?"

   "Maybe late January, maybe early February, on the coldest day."

  Colin nodded slightly, thought for a while and said: "I wish you all the best."

  According to the previous life, a habit can be formed if you stick to it for 21 days.

  He and Shelley communicate regularly at noon every day, which has already exceeded 21 days, and it has become a habit.

  Before, if Colin couldn’t go to the Truth Meeting at noon due to something, if it was convenient, he would usually tell Shelley in advance.

   It can also be regarded as a tacit understanding between the two.

  With the golden paper, Colin had never met a wizard who could chat with him about witchcraft knowledge before.

  With this skill, why not practice witchcraft a few more times.

   But Shelley was different, she was a real genius.

  Conversing with it, like reading Noyce's manuscripts, was of great benefit to Colin.

  However, for him, Noyce's manuscript is a bit too big and looks a bit obscure, but Shelley is just right.

  The more the two chatted, the more they felt a sense of sympathy between geniuses.

   "Your membership application for the Gülen Trade Fair has passed." Shelley put down the fish soup and said again.

   "I'm sorry to trouble you." Colin thanked with a smile on his face.

  Gülen Fair is an underground trade fair, just like Darren Commission.

   It’s just that the Gulen Trade Fair is more inclined to witchcraft transactions, and the Darren Commission is more inclined to custom witchcraft commissions.

   Both are among the largest organizations in each other's fields.

  When Colin learned about this information, he asked Shelley which organizations would be better to join.

   Shelley's answer is only these two.

  However, it seems that the qualification of Gulen Trade Fair is more difficult to obtain than the membership of Darren Commission.

  Applied together with Darren Commission, but until now finally there is any movement.

   the next day.

  Yaramic calendar 3586, January 1st.

   A new year is here.

  Yesterday, he had rested all afternoon. At 9:00 this morning, Colin walked out on time, ready to go to the True Knowledge Association and continue to struggle.

  New year, new day, start off well!

  According to the current progress, if there is no accident, it will take about three to five weeks for Huoqiya meditation to be successfully integrated with Xisheng meditation.

  However, before Colin stepped out of the house, the badge he carried with him lit up.

  Colin paused, squeezed the badge and injected magic power into it.

   A moment later, with a flash of white light, a brief message was projected above the emblem.

  ‘Please, Your Excellency Colin Leonard, go to the school to receive the first mandatory mission of the year. '

  Colin frowned slightly, and hurried to the school.

  Although I am a first-level wizard, I do need to complete four compulsory tasks every year according to regulations, but this year's mandatory tasks came too soon.

   Half an hour later, he came to the General Affairs Building.

   "Your Excellency's compulsory task is to **** an important item to the front line in the southern sea area." The wizard in charge said to him.

   "Why did the school appoint me?" Colin asked.

   "I'm not sure, but the mandatory tasks for each quarter are assigned according to your ability. Logically speaking, this task should not exceed your ability."

   "Besides, the task of escorting is considered easy. It is only sent to the front line. The entire route is in the rear. With your strength as a first-level senior wizard, there will be no danger.

  The only thing that may not be so good is that you can't take the teleportation array. I'm afraid the task will take longer. "

   "Sorry, I refuse this mission." Colin shook his head, took out the golden feather nameplate, and handed it to the astonished wizard in front of him.

   "It turns out that you are Jin Yu." The wizard on duty saw the nameplate of Jin Yu, came back to his senses, and quickly took it, "I will cancel this compulsory task for you."

   "However, do you really want to use this once-a-year opportunity on this simple task?"

   "Yes." Colin nodded slightly.

  If you can’t take the teleportation array, it will take a little longer, and it will take three to five months to go back and forth.

  The journey is long and the time is long, so there may be some problems.

   And leaving the city of Neustadt, wouldn't his great career of earning magic stones have to be put aside.

   You need to know that the custom witchcraft commission, the time limit given is at least one first edition within three months, and he can't leave for the time being.

  In addition, the urgency of this task is really strange.

  Colin frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly thought of the pure-blood family witches who suddenly stopped disturbing him recently.

  ‘Could it be that the pure-blood family specially arranged the task for themselves? '

  His face was calm, and he felt an inexplicable sense of urgency.

   It's time to advance to the second level soon.

  If this mission was really secretly arranged by the pure-blood family, then if he refused this time, there will definitely be another one.

   Being in the school, he couldn't refuse these duties.

  But after advancing to the second level, there is no need to worry too much about these compulsory tasks arranged according to one's apparent first-level strength.

  *

  *

  *

   Half a month passed quickly.

  January 26, early morning.

  A remote neighborhood in Neustadt.

  Colin's figure slowly emerged from a rough masonry wall.

  The man in black robes guarding at the end of the passage saw him coming out, hunched over, stretched out his hand and opened the iron gate.

  The icy cold wind suddenly came mixed with snowflakes.

'The weather is getting cold. '

  Colin walked through the iron gate silently supporting the defense of witchcraft, and came to an alley.

  He just walked out of the stronghold of the Gülen Fair.

  The harvest is 280,000 magic stones.

  Yesterday, the trade fair notified him that the witchcraft that had been posted earlier had been bought, so he came over early this morning to complete the transaction.

  The sorcery of trading is a high-ranking steel temperature-resistant force field.

  Due to its excellent effect, the price of buying out this witchcraft almost catches up with some low-end second-order witchcraft.

  Colin was not reluctant.

  In addition to the price, it is also because he has a better—

  Under his attention, the steel temperature-resistant force field at the top of the first level has successfully broken the limit some time ago, and has become a witchcraft at the bottom of the second level.

   At this point, the steel temperature-resistant force field has also reached the golden color. If you want to break the limit again, you need to find a new sorcery to integrate with it.

   As for the cost of breaking the limit, it reached an astonishing 45,000 magic stones.

  If it weren't for the fact that the customized witchcraft had already been delivered and earned 250,000 magic stones, it would have been a bit traumatic.

   There is also the crimson mark technique, which has broken the limit some time ago, but unfortunately there is no useful inspiration, so he didn't look for Noyce.

   After that thunderous battle, although the city of Neustadt continued to experience blizzards, the situation was calm.

  Colin also suppressed his worries for the time being.

   After all, worrying is useless. The only thing he can do is to improve his strength.

  Stopped by the True Knowledge Society.

  During this time, Colin lived very regularly as before.

   It can even be said to work harder.

  Relying on his body as a first-order knight, he once again compressed his sleep time, only staying for two hours a day to rest.

  The rest of the time was spent on cultivation.

   Such hard work has brought him a lot of benefits.

  Not only those witchcrafts that break the limit, but just two days ago, Hokia's meditation idea and the Holy Ring meditation idea have also been fused to break the limit.

  Theoretically, it is now possible to advance to the second-level wizard. But in order to ensure the best results, Colin intends to wait for the new meditation method to push the progress to the limit, and then start to break the limit.

   All the way to the door of Shelley's laboratory, Colin rang the doorbell.

  Going home from the Glen Fair, you will pass through the Castle of the Guild of True Knowledge.

  Tomorrow he plans to leave Neustadt to do something, which will take about three to five days.

  So stop by and talk to Shelley.

   A moment later, the door of the laboratory opened, and Shelley's figure appeared.

  Colin was about to speak, but he heard Shelley look at him first and say:

   "You came just in time. Starting tomorrow, I will be leaving Neustadt for a while."
