    "Welcome, my dear junior brother! What a coincidence, I was just about to have a nice get-together with you." Crowley smiled heartily and hugged Sebastian hard, "I heard that recently  The actions in your territory have caused quite a stir, I¡¯m afraid Isabel hasn¡¯t been back to the Master Tower for a while.¡±

    "You are right. But Crowley, she is different from us." Sebastian smiled slightly, patted the former's shoulder lightly, and as he turned his palms, a bunch of packaging suddenly appeared in his hand.  Exquisite wine box, "I brought some fine wine, why don't you invite me in and sit for a while?"

    "Haha, that's what I asked for." Crowley smiled and let the boy into his home, and immediately there was a waiter busy beside him.  He was originally born in the middle class, and now he has been officially promoted to a magician, but he has not bought a house or land to enjoy himself like a nouveau riche. He still lives in a private suite provided by the Master's Tower.  Of course, the standard of treatment has naturally been upgraded to a higher level.

    "I've tasted the brandy you made. It's good, but it's too strong. I can't drink more. After two glasses, it will be difficult to perform even the simplest trick. I'm afraid it will  There is not much market among magicians, haha!" Crowley waved away the waiter, took two wine glasses with his own hands, and poured wine for the two of them.

    For a magician, clear thinking is crucial, because no matter whether it is a spell or a gesture, there is no room for error and it needs to be very precise.  If the knight's combat effectiveness will be reduced by at least 20% after being drunk, then it can be said that if the magician's combat effectiveness after being drunk can achieve its original two achievements, it would be a blessing.  so.  If a magician is willing to buy someone a drink, the relationship between the two is usually quite close.

    "It doesn't matter. Saranvania is such a big place and the annual output is limited. It's not my turn to worry about sales." Sebastian gently clinked glasses with Crowley and took a sip of the wine.  After taking it in his mouth and savoring it, he smiled and said, "Actually, I prefer tea from the Far East."

    "That's natural. Tea also has a certain effect on the meditation of our magicians. Unfortunately, the kingdom does not produce it. It can only be imported by the Tongguo Chamber of Commerce. The price doesn't matter. But the quantity is too small." At this point, Crowley  Looking at the young man, he said solemnly, "Speaking of which, I haven't thanked you for the gift last time. The effect of the crystal fragment is stronger than the meditation incense. If it hadn't been for it, my final step would have been delayed for a while.  day."

    "You're welcome, it's just a consumable item." Sebastian waved his hand, as if he didn't care.  "If you need it, just ask, I still have some on hand that I can give to you."

    "What, you still have more?" Crowley asked in surprise, but there was no trace of surprise on his face. Obviously the young man's answer did not exceed his expectations, "That's great! That's great!"  I won't be polite to you. But I can't just get it for nothing. Let's do this. The meditation incense can be exchanged for 10 energy levels. Each of these crystal fragments I will transfer to you 15 energy levels as a thank you gift.  how?"

    "My friend Crowley, it's really hurtful for you to say that." Sebastian shrugged exaggeratedly and said jokingly, "Do I seem to be such a stingy person?"

    "Don't mind, it's just a simple thank you gift. Although the meditation incense in the market area is not expensive, it is always out of stock. I haven't been able to get it for a long time." Crowley complained, "I have long asked **  Shita has suggested that it is always right to have more inventory for this kind of thing that can be used by everyone from apprentices to masters. But you also know that in the past hundred years, people who are willing to spend time and energy on making magic items  There are fewer and fewer guys on it. The piece Avery and the others got before was bought from the magic shop in the city, how ironic!"

    "How about this? I have a better idea, you can think about it." Sebastian sat up straight, looked at Crowley in front of him with a smile, and said softly, "I always think that between us,  The relationship between us can go further, communicate more, cooperate more, and share more. Lend me your ability, Crowley. I know that your ambition is not in power, but in this intoxicating arcana.  You belong to Qingchu, and the help I can provide in this regard is more suitable for you than any noble gold coins."

    "Ah" Crowley's smile paused briefly, and he uttered a long meaningless sound.  Within a few seconds, his fingers gently knocked on the handle of the chair, and his body relaxed into the soft backrest. A playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I thought you weren't going to speak."

    "Things are changing, Crowley, and so are we." Sebastian remained calm, but sighed slightly in his heart.  If it weren't for the strong pressure brought by the Philby magician he met recently, the group of uncivilized druids alone would not be able to force him like this.??.

    "Don't worry too much, my friend." Crowley obviously misunderstood and comforted, "This is Saurons. The Master's Tower is guarded by several Masters. It's not the turn of those druids."  They are running wild. Even if their chief druid comes here in person, he will never get anything good from them."

    Having no intention of explaining more about his speculation, the young man just smiled.

    "It's okay to join your family, but apart from strengthening your influence, I don't dare to boast about how much I can help you. I'm not belittling myself. I don't dare to claim to be a genius in front of you."  Crowley smiled and complimented him, then frowned and said, "Well it's a pity that you only have the title of knight now. Strictly speaking, you are not a noble. The terms of this contract are difficult to establish. If there is no royal officer  Your notarization, the rationality of the vassal relationship between you and me will be questioned."

    "Isabel will be happy to be your nominal employer, my friend." Sebastian smiled, "A baron's daughter, as the sole heir to the territory, is of sufficient weight."

    Hearing this, Crowley stared at the boy for a long time as if he didn't recognize the person in front of him.

    "What a lucky woman" He sighed and shook his head.  "Well, for the sake of my mentor, it's okay to work for that little girl. But since the employer is not you, I hope to get corresponding remuneration. Also, I need to stay in the Master Tower for at least two days every month.  Zhou, helping Mr. Yager handle related matters and conduct private research and experiments."

    "Of course. The higher your ability, the greater your help to us, right?" Sebastian was not dissatisfied with Crowley's request, because mutual needs are the basis for true long-term cooperation.  "You have my promise. As long as I really have time, you are always welcome to discuss academic issues with me."

    "Why else do you think I agreed so readily?" Crowley said angrily.

    During this period of time, any question he is not very qingchu, teenagers can always answer answers in the most concise way. Many times, it is easier to understand even better than Mandarin's answer.  This is crucial for studious apprentices without a personal magical tutor.  Because usually the free answer time once a week in the mentor-apprenticeship system is always not enough.  some problems.  When Crowley went to the library to look up information on his own.  It may very well take ten days and a half to get the result, but if you ask Sebastian, he will be able to give you an accurate answer.  The efficiency of this research and study is naturally different.  Comparing the two, it is not surprising how to choose.

    "You accept these first. It's the first year's salary I paid in advance for her." Sebastian took out an exquisite gem box and placed it on the coffee table, then opened it gently.  A dozen of the meditation crystals that Crowley was so familiar with were neatly arranged inside, sparkling.

    Now that he has become one of his own, Crowley accepted it honestly and cautiously into his arms.  For a magician, it is not difficult to earn enough gold coins to enjoy life. On the contrary, things that can help strengthen oneself are relatively rare, so they are more attractive.

    "Now, Crowley, I might be able to use your help." Sebastian spoke slowly.

    "If there's anything you need me to do, just tell me." Crowley was obviously in a good mood as he just received the meditation crystal he needed and replied cheerfully.

    Sebastian took out a gem box from the dimensional bag that was similar to the one before, but obviously larger than the one before, and pushed it towards Crowley.

    "You actually have so many?" Crowley was a little surprised, but he quickly opened the lid of the box.  Sure enough, just as he guessed, it was also filled with meditation crystals.  He frowned and half-joked, "You must have dug a crystal mine, right?"

    "I hope stop joking. With your eyesight, can't you see that this crystal is not naturally occurring?" Sebastian waved his hand and said angrily, "Let's put it this way,  My dear Crowley, I happen to have a secret channel in my hands, and I can get a batch of these crystals from time to time. But firstly, the quantity is small, and secondly, I am not too short of money, so there is no point in selling them in the market area.  Big. Do you think I can use the things I have on hand to gain more support from my colleagues?"

    "You still need to say that? There is no doubt about it!" Crowley looked around subconsciously to make sure that no one heard the conversation between the two, and then lowered his voice and said seriously, "I understand what you mean.  . Don¡¯t worry, Sebastian, leave the negotiation with them to me. With me as the leader, and your reputation as a genius, there will definitely be people willing to follow you. Of course, if anything happens  If something happens, you can't count on them??Achieve the same level as me.  "

    "I'm very happy about this. However, that's enough for the time being. I will look for opportunities to communicate with them more in the future. I believe there will always be someone who makes a wise choice." The young man didn't seem to care, just slightly  Smiled and said.

    "As long as you have an idea." Crowley nodded and confirmed again, "Is the amount of crystal enough?"

    "One hundred and eighty pieces shouldn't be a problem. I'll leave it to you how to allocate them. I just hope that the effect can be maximized." Sebastian answered affirmatively, and then added, "If I can get  As for the friendship of any magic instructor, even if it is only a certain degree of support, it doesn't matter if the cost is larger. If there is an opportunity later, I will also try to expand channels as much as possible and try to see if I can get more meditation crystals."

    "WellI'll do my best" Obviously this request made Crowley a little embarrassed. No matter how many friends he made, it was difficult for him to really get to know people of his mentor's generation, but he still gritted his teeth and spoke.  He agreed, "I will give you a satisfactory reply in a week."
