Chapter 797: Status
In a relatively remote tavern in the city of Dunno, Wang Yi and Dolph's table was filled with various side dishes. They looked simple, but each had its own unique flavor.
There were already quite a few empty wine glasses on one side.
"My goodness, I just don't believe it. I can't even drink more than a magician..."
Baron Dolph's tongue was a little tied.
Considering that Wang Yi was a mage, he finally did not choose strong liquor.
This is a tavern he likes very much. The homemade fruit wine is also very delicious, but the aftertaste is a bit strong. The side dishes are also quite cooked. Although they are just some ordinary ingredients, they are very memorable.
Even Wang Yi felt pretty good.
But unfortunately, the wine is still much worse than those brewed by the elves.
Since this is a world with a suitable concentration of magic power and there are some good fruits here, maybe I can prepare a batch myself.
It’s good to satisfy your craving.
"Even if you call the Count, he can't drink more than me."
Wang Yi looked at Baron Dolph over there and smiled.
Although this guy is a noble, he doesn't care much about etiquette. Anyway, he only needs to serve Earl Luke. Even if other nobles don't understand these things, they will not reject him!
And in fact, this is also a means of self-protection to a certain extent.
He is highly trusted and is in charge of the city's public security. If he gets too close to other people, he will easily become suspicious even if he has no other ideas.
It looks a bit rough, but actually it is also delicate.
Although Dolph is already a high-level knight with a strong physique, the wine here is brewed from fruits in a magical environment. If he does not actively use breathing techniques to dispel it, he will naturally be affected.
It’s just that people who love drinking like the feeling of being drunk, and they naturally wouldn’t do this unless there was anything else going on.
"No, you must have cheated and used magic secretly, right?"
Dofu said in a confused tone.
One of them is a powerful nobleman, and the other is the president of the Mages Guild, but they seem like ordinary drinkers here, which is really down-to-earth.
"You haven't told me why you asked me out today. Is there any arrangement with the Earl?"
Wang Yi asked casually.
"Hey~, it's not the Earl's arrangement. He mainly asked me to come here to remind you that the people coming from the Mages Guild this time are representatives of the Calais Federation."
Wang Yi was used to seeing some faces in other worlds, and the same was true on Earth, so after hearing what Dolph said, he raised his eyebrows playfully.
"If we can't come from other cities in the Principality of Kerton, the neighboring Principality of Norton or even the Kingdom of Eday is much closer. Should we arrange for representatives of the Calais Federation to come all the way here..."
Wang Yi took a big sip of fruit wine, enjoying the smooth flow of the slightly sticky wine down his throat and the subsequent fruity aroma that spread, and he couldn't help but smack his lips.
Interesting~
During this period of time, he has made up for the general situation of some nearby countries and even the general understanding of the world as a whole. There are some recorded documents and books in the library of the Mage Tower. Wang Yi also knows about the rise of the Calais Federation.
With the help of Shalltear's explanation, I have a preliminary understanding of it.
The headquarters of the Mages Guild is located in the Dawn Empire, and there is an area in the Dawn Empire which is the Temple of the Mother Earth. The entire Dawn Empire can be regarded as the religious kingdom of the Mother Earth. The headquarters of the Mages Guild is located here not only because of the influence of the Dawn Empire, but also as a statement that they have no ideas about it and they are right under your nose.
The reason why the Mages Guild Headquarters is mentioned is because the Calais Federation is one of the few places that has a direct connection with the Leo Floating City. With the influence of the status of the Leo Floating City in the mage community, the mage power of the Calais Federation is very strong, and it can also reversely influence the Mages Guild Headquarters.
So this is most likely a direct interception by Calais.
But why this is done and what the specific purpose is is unknown.
All I know is that they have gone to such great lengths to influence the arrangements of the Mages Guild headquarters, and have arranged for an airship to come all the way here. This must be more than just a normal process to investigate their acting president. There must be other interests involved that are sufficient for them to take such action.
There are actually quite a lot of interest points in the city of Dunno.
The city of Dunnot has been at peace for twenty years, and after such a long truce with the neighboring Principality of Nott, it has directly turned into a commercial city. This in itself is actually in line with the atmosphere of the Calais Federation, which is a country based on commerce.
For them, even external expansion was not meant to be a traditional annexation into their own territory. If they could control the city of Dunno commercially, it would definitely be a huge benefit.
Including it in the territory requires paying a little attention to the lives of civilians, which requires effort. Sometimes it is more beneficial to control all the economic lifelines.
Even if the ambition may not be so great, the construction of the airship dock also contains huge benefits.
Or maybe it was also because of Count Luke, the legendary and promising knight.
Either they were optimistic about him and wanted to win him over in advance, or they were worried that he would become a legend, sweep across the Plain of East and eventually become a powerful new neighbor of Calais across the sea.
There are many possibilities...
"But Calais has such a developed commercial and magical atmosphere, there should be some prophets and fortune tellers..."
Wang Yi finished his drink and was speechless when he saw Dofu, who collapsed on the table in front of him due to the aftereffects of the drink.
"Boss, pay the bill."
You must have done it on purpose, poor baron...
…
The town of Danic itself is located on the east side of the city of Dunnor, bordering the Monster Forest. To some extent, it can also be seen as being separated from the Duchy of Nott in the northeast by a corner of the Monster Forest.
At this time, Kangaroo Dad's team had arrived in the town of Danik and booked a room for five people at Tia Tavern because of the convenience of "knowing the language".
Now, I can earn a lot of fees just by casting the spell "Language Proficiency".
Team Lu Yi, who arrived in the town early, the Fruit Studio Team, and a certain special studio team, these top domestic and foreign teams all took the initiative to visit!
This is the first team of mages to pass through the Warcraft Forest.
And all three have their own strengths.
Whether it is language proficiency or exploration, they are all impressive and absolutely popular.
Looking at An Ji and An Qi, the two lazy miners, Lu Yi and other T0 team members were speechless.
This is a case where hard work is not as good as luck. We are really lucky to have this great team.
However, they are all independent players and have not joined any team yet. After these top domestic and foreign teams tried to win them over and offered a price but were rejected, they no longer wanted to get involved.
They obviously don't want to join any powerful organization...
Now they need help from others, hoping for some BUFFs, or at least to help increase the language proficiency of everyone in the Adventurer's Guild.
After a few main NPCs have finished their work, they can provide great convenience.
The other party's nonchalant look actually made the other teams lower their posture.
Being without desires makes you strong, that's how awesome it is!
Moreover, they are now in need of help, and since they can even learn remotely through cloud courses, these people may be able to come up with some new practical spells in the future.
There is absolutely no wrong way to make friends!
