Versatile Mage: I Awakened Nine Stars

Xu Shen followed the navigation and came to the research meeting of the Demon City Magic Association.

Although he didn't want to come, it would be a bit shameful to have to wait until Zu Guangyao came to invite him.

So, after settling Mu Ningxue's affairs, he took a taxi and came over.

The Research Council and the Trial Council are both internal organizations of the Magic Association, but their functions are completely different.

The main business of the Tribunal is to catch and kill demons, so the requirements for the combat prowess of mages are extremely high. Generally, the mages who can join the Tribunal are the most capable of fighting at the same level.

But the Research Council is different. Their mission is to develop new magic theories and broaden the boundaries of human magic.

In the research department meeting, anything you can do is useless. The main thing you rely on here is your brain.

Xu Shen walked into the research meeting with the business card given by Zu Guangyao.

The atmosphere here is very good, with some people having lively discussions in small groups, and some people locking themselves in a quiet room to meditate.

From time to time, someone would pass by with a stack of documents in his arms and his brows furrowed.

It seems that everyone's brain is running at high efficiency, even the security guard is holding a copy of the latest academic journal and reading it with gusto.

"Brother, do you know where Professor Feng is?" Xu Shen knocked on the security guard's desk.

"Ah?!" The security guard sat up in panic, the book falling from his face.

He pushed up his glasses and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it was a young boy: "Do you have an appointment?"

"No, but I have this." Xu Shen took out the business card Zu Guangyao gave him.

A trace of surprise flashed in the security guard's eyes.

Is this the guy who made Professor Feng have to rush back from the halfway summit?

The background is very hard.

The security guard took Xu Shen directly to the door of Feng Zhoulong's office without saying anything, and even rang the doorbell for him.

Xu Shen had seen Feng Zhoulong in the morning. At that time, he was wearing a white windbreaker and flying back to the Demon Capital Tower on the Wings of Wind as if there was no one around.

Knowing that magic was banned in the city, he thought that this man was so high-profile and contemptuous of the law, that he must be an extremely arrogant person.

When we met again, this middle-aged man, who looked to be in his forties, looked unexpectedly kind.

He even made Xu Shen a cup of tea with a smile: "Are you the young man with special powers that Zu Guangyao mentioned?"

"Yes, it's me," Xu Shen lied without blushing.

Feng Zhoulong sat back in his chair and rubbed his temples a little tiredly. He closed his eyes and said, "Xiao Xu, what do you think? You pretend to stay here for a few months, and then go wherever you want. Someone asks about the research." , how about you just say you don’t understand and then blame it all on me?”

"Ah?" Xu Shen was stunned.

"Zu Guangyao asked me to study this. Let's not talk about whether it's professional or not. It's just nonsense." Feng Zhoulong's complaint was not concealed at all.

"Uh..." Xu Shen scratched his head, not knowing how to answer this.

Regardless of Xu Shen's expression, Feng Zhoulong said to himself: "Zu Guangyao wants me to copy your talent, but the natural talent can only be transferred, and it is a conclusion in the magic world that it cannot be copied. I don't know what he is still imagining."

"What's more, predicting the future is something that involves the field of time and even has something to do with metaphysics. Let alone copying, whether it can be transferred is another matter. It is too advanced to engage in this kind of research in this era. Even if The end result of investing financial and material resources is nothing but nothing.”

"Xiao Xu, I won't hide it from you. This research trial conference has allocated special funds. You don't have to do the research, but you have to get the money. If you cooperate with me for a period of time, you will naturally get a share of the reward."

Xu Shen's heart tightened, could he listen to this?

Is it true that every researcher is so open-minded?

Will he kill people and silence them?

"Huh? Xiao Xu, why don't you speak?" Feng Zhoulong opened his eyes.

Xu Shen forced a smile: "Professor Feng, you say, I will cooperate with you."

Feng Zhoulong nodded with satisfaction: "Then it's settled."

"Okay...okay", Xu Shen stuttered, never expecting that this trip would turn out like this.

"By the way, Professor Feng, I still have something to do in the Magic City and I can't leave. I'll come back and cooperate with you after a while. Do you think that's okay?"

Xu Shen thought of Isa, that annoying female temptress, and he did not dare to break the oath made under the Stone of Oath.

"Don't you have any time recently?"

Feng Zhoulong frowned. If the project doesn't start for a long time, he will come back to his senses after the trial. This is a lie... ah no, don't let the funds applied for go to waste again.

Xu Shen looked embarrassed.

"Well, how about you come to me every weekend, pretend to collect some data and then go back, and we'll reimburse you for the round-trip air tickets?"

What a pretense...

He could finally see that there was not a single word of this Professor Feng that was deceptive, and the whole person focused on the truth.

"Yes, yes..." Feng Zhoulong said this, and Xu Shen simply couldn't refuse.

Feng Zhoulong nodded with satisfaction: "Let's go to the laboratory. We've come here. We have to do something to show Zu Guangyao."

Xu Shen had a grimace on his face. If it weren't for the huge gap between their identities, he would have really wanted to cover this bad old man's mouth.

The two came to his exclusive laboratory.

The various array patterns inside are dazzling, and some hand-calculated drafts are randomly thrown around in every corner.

Xu Shen originally didn't care much about the cleanliness or messiness of the room. But after living with Ding Yumian, he actually developed some obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Just like now, he bent down to pick up a few pieces of paper scattered at the door, intending to put them on the table next to him.

"Don't move!" Feng Zhoulong was shocked: "What should I do if I can't find it after you sort it out?"

Xu Shen's hand holding the paper trembled.

Why are you shouting so loudly?

Scared the kids!

Feng Zhoulong stared at the pieces of paper he picked up and returned them to their original positions one by one before he breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Shen followed Feng Zhoulong's footsteps and carefully avoided all kinds of debris on the ground.

"Come on, let's go through the regular process first. You first do a test on the nature of the magic energy." Feng Zhoulong led Xu Shen to a strange machine.

Xu Shen followed his instructions and carefully input a trace of light magic energy and a trace of summoning magic energy.

It would take a while for the test results to come out, so Feng Zhoulong took him to the next machine with ease.

It was just a matter of drawing blood and filming. Feng Zhoulong even took a piece of his soul.

I really can't tell that this guy is still a necromancer.

After going through the entire process, Feng Zhoulong wrote lightly: "This comprehensive set of examinations is extremely helpful for you to understand the status of your practice. After the examination results come out, I will find someone to help you adjust your magic practice routine. Believe me, after the adjustment, you will My practice efficiency can be increased by at least 30% compared to before, which can be considered one of the rewards for your cooperation with me."

"Oh," Xu Shen nodded perfunctorily. He would be thankful that this old guy didn't go out and talk nonsense.

He doesn't care about the reward at all now.

Feng Zhoulong couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw Xu Shen's unconcerned look. Many children from aristocratic families begged him to do this set of examinations, but he still liked to ignore them.

This kid, hum.
