MTL - Weird Wizarding World-Chapter 416 sad

  Chapter 416 Sorrow

   "For the members of the Supreme Council, meditation is the least of their worries."

  Noyce took Colin out of the Gaotian Council Hall and returned to the depths of the synagogue in Neustadt.

   While Tuoyinxisheng was meditating on the dungeon crystal, he continued to introduce the benefits of becoming a councilor to Colin:

"You are a member of the Supreme Council of Neustadt City. Strictly speaking, except for the meditation methods of the nine schools that cannot be directly consulted, the meditation methods of other schools can be directly consulted here with the badge. If you want to print a copy of the crystal , you need to apply in advance.”

   "Of course, the content above the fourth level can only be viewed after you become a fourth-level wizard."

   "If you want to view the meditation methods of the nine schools, it is also very simple, just choose a school to join."

   "As for the meditation methods of other schools in the City of Miracles, the same is probably true. Except for the top schools, the content of the fourth level and below can be viewed at will. It is a bit troublesome to apply across cities."

  Colin nodded. Although he had already expected the benefits of becoming a member of parliament, this supreme treatment still made him feel a little bit emotional.

  From then on, I am afraid that I will never have to worry about meditation in the future!

"for you."

  At this time, Noyce finally finished rubbing Xi Shengming's idea and handed it to Colin.

   "The contents of Tier 3 and Tier 4 are all inside, remember to keep it safe and not to spread it outside."

   "Okay." Colin took the crystal.

   "I've been temporarily staying in Neustadt for the past few days, and the awarding ceremony will take place within a week at most."

"good."

  Noyce watched Colin's figure fade away, then turned and walked towards a room deep in the auditorium.

  He is going to notify the other great members of the council about the addition of new members, and at the same time discuss matters related to awarding Colin the emblem.

  Of course...and dealing with the powerful elders of the family.

  Thinking of this, Noyce's brows were a little bored, but after all, he was mostly joyful.

  Bringing new talent into Parliament is like breathing new life into stagnant water.

Noyce doesn't know what    will bring, but it's better than nothing.

  Noyce passed the summons on the Ring Tower to pass on the fact that Colin passed the review of the Supreme Councilor and became a councilor.

  It is very rare for a second-level senior wizard to become a councilor.

  Not to mention that Noyce also used the once-in-a-century independent election right of the Noyce family!

   Such news is like a pebble thrown into a pool of water, causing ripples among the wizards at the upper level.

   Not long after, someone approached aggressively.

   "Noyce, how can you arbitrarily use the family's once-in-a-century independent election power on an outsider?!"

   There were three people who came, all of whom were elders of the Tate family. The leader was the respected Nickler, and Wagner and Bert were beside him.

   "Old Nickler, Old Wagner, Old Burt... Good afternoon." Noyce glanced at the three of them and greeted them with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

   "Good afternoon." Although he was extremely angry in his heart, Nickler thought that as a member of a pure-blood family, he could not disregard etiquette, so he took the lead and returned a greeting coldly.

  But then he asked again:

   "Noyce, why do you want to use the family's once-in-a-century independent election right on a half-blood wizard? This is a waste!"

  The Tate family will change the patriarch every two hundred years, and each time it will be the family member with the most outstanding comprehensive consideration in the two hundred years.

   And this member will also be given a new name-Neustadt.

  Different from patriarchs, patriarchs are patriarchs until they die.

  Nikler, the leader of the three in front of him, was already a clan elder when the previous Neuss was still in power, and he was also a member of the Supreme Council.

  Hundreds of years have passed, and Nickler has a very strong influence in the Tate family. Many times, Noyce needs to consider his opinions when making decisions.

  But Noyce smiled and did not answer, but asked:

   "Old Nickler, what do you call me?"

   "Noyce..." Nickler was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously spoke out.

   "That's right, I'm Noyce—" Noyce's smile gradually faded, "I'm the patriarch of the Tate family. Do I have to ask for your consent if I use the right to vote independently?"

  Following his words, the powerful aura surged toward Nickler and the others in front of him, and the latter turned pale.

  In any case, the wizard who can deserve the title of Noyce is the one with the strongest comprehensive consideration in the Tate family in the past two hundred years.

  Even though the clan elders in front of them are generally much older than Noyce, in terms of strength, they may not be able to compare with him!

   "The right to vote independently is owned by the family, at least you have to discuss it with us."

  Seeing that Neuss was so resolute and didn't give him any face, Nickler secretly hated him, but his face changed into a gentle one.

   "The Supreme Council has passed the review, and now there is only one official emblem awarding ceremony, and there is no possibility of further changes." Noyes said lightly.

   This is why he did not hesitate to use the reason for the independent election right.

   Only by keeping it secret and letting Colin directly face the review of the Supreme Council, can it be 100% guaranteed that Colin can become a member of the Supreme Council.

   Any other method will cause unnecessary changes.

   Facing Neuss, who was not willing to eat oil and salt, Nickler turned and turned in his heart, and finally said with a smile:

   "The independent election right is used, at least that Colin passed the review of the Supreme Councilor."

   "Congratulations to the family for adding a new MP!"

   After finishing speaking, Nickler laughed.

   "I didn't let Colin join the family." Noyce continued.

  He recommended Colin to become a councilor, hoping that he could rely on the resources of the Supreme Council to move forward and bring new hope to wizards in the future, instead of letting him fall into endless intrigue.

  Noyce has a deep understanding of the involuntary in the family, and he doesn't want Colin to do the same.

Nickler was stunned, frowned and thought for a while, and asked: "That wizard, according to you, is only a second-level senior, because his talent is not good enough, and he hasn't crossed the boundary between mixed blood and pure blood. There is little hope for a super wizard?"

"No, his talent is very good, better than most pure-blood wizards, and he doesn't have the acquired degradation problem that most mixed-blood wizards have. There is no obstacle for him to advance to high-level wizards. .”

  Noyce shook his head.

  Most of the half-blood wizards have low talent. In addition to natural factors, improper training will also cause their talent to deteriorate again.

  This kind of inappropriateness is generally due to the incompleteness of meditation, too much filth and raving in the cultivation environment, weak foundation, wrong cultivation of talent seeds, etc.

  And they will more or less affect the probability of wizards advancing each time in the future, especially the probability of advanced high-level wizards, that is, wizards of the third rank and above.

  So wizards also regard it as an acquired deterioration of talent.

  In contrast, pure-blood wizards who have practiced advanced meditation since childhood and received a perfect elite education generally do not have such acquired deterioration.

   This is also one of the sources of the pure-blood wizard's sense of superiority.

  Compared to ordinary half-blood wizards, they have won at the starting line since they were young, and this advantage will become bigger and bigger as time goes by.

  Of course, even so, there will still be some existences among the half-blood wizards who can break the rules.

  Pure blood wizards call it breaking the boundary between hybrid and pure blood.

   In other words, it means being able to be absorbed into the family, barely able to be treated as a half-blood wizard.

   Although Noyce does not agree with this view.

  Those geniuses who were born in humble beginnings but could compete with well-born pure-blood wizards did not break the boundary between hybrids and pure-bloods, and they clearly surpassed most ordinary pure-bloods.

  The room fell into silence.

   Nickler watched Noyes, as if trying to tell if he was joking.

  Since Colin's talent is so good, why not absorb him into the family?

   If they were not absorbed into the family, wouldn’t the precious, once-in-a-century independent election right be wasted? !

   "I will truthfully reflect this situation to the family council."

   After a long time, Nickler left a word in a nonchalant manner, then turned and left with two attendants.

  Noyce stood beside the communication ring tower with a calm expression. After watching Nickler and the others leave, he continued to open the communication ring tower and negotiated with the rest of the astonished fourth-tier councilors about the Colin awarding ceremony.

   On the other side, after leaving the parliament hall, Colin stopped a carriage.

   Not long after, he came to Lilian's residence.

  The door of this white villa is closed at this moment, and the plants controlled by Naduo at the door have also fallen into a semi-dormant state.

  Although it doesn't look much different from usual, it's not the first time Colin has come here, and he can see the abnormality at a glance.

  ‘Senior Lilian...is really not at home. '

   After stopping at the door for a while, Colin came to the residence of the Xisheng School again.

   Not surprisingly, Mentor Atbold is not in the school either.

  Standing outside the instructor's residence, Colin frowned slightly, looked around, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and strode towards a passing wizard.

   "Mr. Bernie."

   "Colin?" Although he hadn't seen him for a long time, the brown-haired wizard recognized the little changed wizard in front of him at a glance.

   "It's me." Colin nodded.

  The expression on Bernie's face was a bit complicated. He didn't forget this talented Jin Yu who provided knowledge exchange and one-on-one explanation services after class.

  Although every time I listened to Colin's explanation, I was a little jealous of his talent, but in general, thanks to Colin, he was able to save a lot of contribution points that he planned to use for repeated lectures at that time.

   So much so that when they heard that Colin was assigned by the school to perform a garrison mission in the Kingdom of Loen, they felt a little regretful.

   "You... came back from the garrison mission?" Bernie asked after a pause, looking at Colin in front of him.

   "That's right... What happened to the school recently? I just came back and found that the tutors are not here..."

   "Nothing happened in the school. As for your mentor... he should have been recruited to the frontline battlefield. The General Affairs Castle has a specific list of recruits. You can go and have a look."

   Bernie paused for a moment on the badge representing the first-order wizard on Colin's chest, and replied.

  Colin felt his gaze, and finally realized that Bernie, who was a first-level wizard two years ago, had replaced the badge on his chest with a badge representing a second-level wizard.

  He was a little emotional.

   "Is there anything else, Colin?" Bernie looked at Colin with complicated eyes, feeling inexplicably sorry for him.

   "No more." Colin shook his head. Some wanted to congratulate Bernie on his advancement to the second-level wizard, but he was worried that he would show his true strength later, which would seem like a mockery.

  If you directly tell Bernie that you are already a second-order now, you don’t have to feel sorry for me, it seems a bit strange.

   So Colin finally chose to skip this topic.

"Then I'll go first, um...congratulations on finishing your garrison mission." Bernie congratulated, paused, and then said meaningfully: "Actually, sometimes, the purpose of bending over temporarily is to better hold your chest up and raise your head up." ..."

  Colin was taken aback, nodded and said, "Thank you for your suggestion, I will."

  He did not expect to hear such advice from Bernie, whom he was not familiar with.

   Apparently... not every wizard is that bad.

  Colin smiled and watched Bernie go away.

   Came to the General Affairs Building, Colin found the names of Atbold and Lilian in the list posted on the first floor.

   This annoyed him a little.

  The front line of the war is undoubtedly dangerous. Although the instructor's injuries are almost healed, and senior sister Lilian is already a second-level wizard, Colin is still a little worried.

  ‘I don’t know if they can transfer the mentors back after becoming a member of parliament. ’ thought Colin silently.

   Such considerations are not completely self-serving.

   Now that he has become a member of parliament, he will definitely need to deal with many odds and ends in the future. He needs some help.

  ‘Where to go next? '

   Walking out of the Xisheng School, looking at the busy street in front of him, Colin was a little dazed for a moment.

   After moving out of Neustadt more than two years ago, he has no permanent home here.

  Most of the people who come here during the holidays usually stay at the home of the tutor or Lilian.

  But now Lilian and the mentor have gone to the front line...

  After thinking for a while, Colin suddenly thought of a place to go.

   Stop a stagecoach.

   Not long after, Colin got off the carriage in a remote street.

   In front of me is a deserted and slightly dilapidated castle.

  Behind the black iron fence gate, there is a slightly dilapidated book statue above a dry circular fountain, indicating the name of the place—Castle of the True Knowledge Society.

  Taking out the badge of the True Knowledge Society, Colin is going to the familiar laboratory to study the third-order idea of ​​Xi Shengming.

  But I never thought that just after opening the door, I saw a familiar figure coming up the stairs leading to the basement floor.

   "Shelley, have you returned to Neustadt too?" Colin stopped in his tracks and asked in surprise.

   "Have you accepted the summoning of the Supreme Council?" Shelley was also a little surprised, and asked back.

   "Yes." Colin nodded.

   "The Supreme Council didn't do anything to you, did it?" Shelley looked at Colin up and down, with some concern.

   "No." Colin shook his head and said with a smile: "The Lord of Neuss elected me as a councilor, and I passed it."

   "You mean, you have now become a member of the Supreme Council?" Shelley was obviously taken aback.

   "If there are no surprises in the emblem awarding ceremony in a few days, yes."

  Shelley opened his mouth, but his eyes were still full of shock. Isn't it possible for a councilor to be a third-tier wizard?

   "What about you, why did you suddenly return to Neustadt?" Colin asked again.

  As soon as the reason for returning was mentioned, the surprise on Shelley's face was replaced by deep sorrow, and he paused and said:

   "Because of those polluted farmlands, I came back to check some information."
