Chapter 78: An unusual performance (1)

Behind the mage Guild building was a large open space covered with bluestone slabs. The space was about 100 meters long and wide. Between 50 to 100 meters, there was a target-like object every ten meters. It was used to test magic.

All the mages who came to register at the mage Guild had to go through this procedure. They had to cast a spell here to prove that they were a mage. At the same time, it would be convenient for the people of the mage Guild to evaluate their grade.

When they reached the edge of the court, Carl turned to Zhao Hai and said, ” “Dear mage, please use a spell. Any spell will do. If you want to get a higher level mage badge, please use some higher level spells.” After saying that, Carl stood aside and looked at Zhao Hai quietly.

No one knew that although Carl didn’t know magic, he had a certain understanding of it because he had been in contact with mages for a long time. He was also very sensitive to magic power. As long as a mage used a spell, he could judge the mage’s level, and his judgment would be correct eight out of ten times.

The reason why Karl could make such a judgment was closely related to his decades of work in the mage Guild. During his decades of work, Karl had slowly summed up a set of ways to judge a mage’s level. A mage’s level could be reflected from their control over their own magic, the time they took to create and use magic, and their proficiency in chanting spells.

There were many mages whose combat power wasn’t proportional to their level, even though their levels weren’t low. These mages didn’t have much experience in battle, so they didn’t have enough ability to respond in battle. This could be judged from the time they used magic and their control of magic.

It was because of his superb judgment that Karl was able to become the head of the Duchy of Versailles ‘Mage Guild. In a large country like Arkas, the head of the mage Guild was usually a high-level mage.

When Zhao Hai entered Casar city, Carl had already received the news. When he knew that Zhao Hai was going to register at the mage Guild, Carl immediately decided to receive Zhao Hai personally. He wanted to see what level Zhao Hai was at.

It had to be acknowledged that the people of the mainland had an instinctive aversion and wariness towards Black Mages, and the Versailles family was no different.

However, the news they received from the magicians proved that Zhao Hai was very strong in combat. This made the Versailles family even more cautious. It should be known that a magician, no matter what kind of magician he was, as long as his level and ability were high enough, he would be valued by the family. This was because a high-level magician was equivalent to the existence of a nuclear weapon. One might not necessarily use this weapon, as its main purpose was to deter the enemy.

If it were any other magician from the mainland who came to the Versailles Duchy, the Versailles clan would definitely welcome them warmly. Even if they couldn’t pull the magician into their clan, they would at least try to establish a friendly relationship with him.

However, the Versailles family adopted a very calm attitude toward Zhao Hai. They did not approach him, nor would they offend him. Even if Zhao Hai was very powerful, they would not approach him without knowing his details.

There was a principle in using people in large families. They placed ability second and loyalty first. There were many talents in the world, but few were loyal. No matter how strong you were, if you were always rebelling, no one would dare to use you. The Versailles family was like this. Even if you were a level-eight mage, as long as you were not loyal enough, they would not use you. They would rather find two loyal 7th-tier mages. He didn’t want a disloyal grade-8 mage.

Zhao Hai’s identity was still a secret. No one had found out anything about him, and it was as if he had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. This made it difficult for the Versailles family to rope him in.

The Versailles clan was developing very well and was very stable. Although Zhao Hai’s strength would bring new development to the clan if he joined them, Zhao Hai’s mysterious background had always been a thorn in the side of the Versailles clan. The Versailles clan liked Zhao Hai’s strength, but they were also afraid that Zhao Hai would become an unstable factor in the clan.

The Versailles family had already established their own Duchy. They did not like taking risks, especially when it came to unstable factors. Hence, they treated Zhao Hai’s problem with the cold shoulder.

Although they had to treat Zhao Hai coldly, they still had to keep an eye on him. After all, Zhao Hai was already in Casar city. If he really did something, it would not look good for the Versailles family.

Zhao Hai didn’t think too much about it. He was really short of money now. The moment he registered at the mage Guild, he had earned 10 gold coins. This income might not be much to other mages, but it was very important to Zhao Hai. Right now, the entire Buda family’s gold coins were not even worth 50 gold coins. This was equivalent to him having one-fifth of his wealth.

Of course, Zhao Hai didn’t want others to know how strong he was to get an advanced mage badge. He could do that now. As long as he released all the undead creatures he had collected, he could get an advanced mage badge. However, that would be too high-profile and didn’t match his personality.

Zhao Hai didn’t waste any time. He didn’t know how to chant either. He just held his magic staff and paused for a moment. The Xenomorph appeared beside him.

Zhao Hai didn’t summon too many undead creatures. He just wanted to prove that he knew magic. Even though he was using fake magic, he believed that no one in this world would be able to tell.

Carl’s eyes widened at the sight of the Xenomorphs. He had been working in the mage Guild for decades and had seen countless mages casting spells. Some of them were gorgeous, some were ugly, some were long, and some were short. However, he had never seen a spell cast in such a short time like Zhao Hai’s. He had completed the spell just by pausing his staff for a moment? Wasn’t this too exaggerated?

Zhao Hai gently touched the alien, but it was like a puppy that had been touched by its owner. It wagged its tail wildly and almost hit Carl. Carl was so scared that he quickly took a few steps away.

Seeing this, Zhao Hai did not say anything and kept the alien. Carl was still a little confused when green said, ” “Did our Sir pass the test?”

Carl came back to his senses and quickly said, ” “You’ve passed, Mr. Mage. This way, please.” Then, he led Zhao Hai and the others back to the rest area.

When Zhao Hai and the others sat down in the rest area, Carl immediately excused himself and ran away. After a while, he returned with a form and placed it on the table in front of Zhao Hai. He said to Zhao Hai, &Quot; Dear Mr mage, this is a form. As long as you finish this form, all the procedures will be completed. Please. &Quot;

Zhao Hai took the form and looked at it carefully. He found that it was very simple. There were only some blank fields such as name, age, and gender.

Zhao Hai nodded and threw the form to meg. Understanding what Zhao Hai meant, she picked up the fountain pen that Carl had prepared for them and started to fill it out.

Carl was grumbling in his heart as he watched Zhao Hai’s performance. It was not that mages had to fill in their own forms, but most mages who came to register would do so. This was a show of respect to the mage Guild. After all, the mage Guild was a national organization. Even if mages did not have much use for it, they would still show some respect. After all, the Guild represented the country.

Carl wanted Zhao Hai to fill in the form himself so that he could collect more information about Zhao Hai. There were professional handwriting appraisers on the continent. They could collect all kinds of handwriting and use it to find people.

Carl wanted Zhao Hai to fill out the form and send it to the Versailles family to see if they could find any clues to Zhao Hai’s identity through his handwriting.

However, he didn’t expect that Zhao Hai would let meg fill it out instead of him. This made his plan fail again.

This raised Carl’s guard against Zhao Hai to the highest level. In Carl’s opinion, Zhao Hai did everything on purpose to hide his identity. Such a person was even more dangerous.

Carl could tell that Zhao Hai was still young. He had given Zhao Hai the best punishment, but Zhao Hai had not even touched him. Up until now, Zhao Hai had not said anything either. This made Carl even more certain that Zhao Hai was hiding something.

In fact, from the first time he met Zhao Hai, Carl had been observing and testing him. He was observing Zhao Hai’s attitude towards people and realized that Zhao Hai might be a legitimate aristocrat. He gave Zhao Hai a cup of Keya to see how Zhao Hai looked like. However, Zhao Hai did not touch the cup at all. In his plan to reject a customer, Zhao Hai did not say a word, so he could not hear Zhao Hai’s voice and could not make any other judgments. In addition, he had to fill in the form now. All of this added together had left a deep impression on Carl. He felt that Zhao Hai must be a famous person on the continent, but his reputation must not be good. Therefore, he tried his best to hide his identity.

But what was Zhao Hai’s true identity? Carl really couldn’t think of anything.
