Chapter 338

350. Golden Mage Tower Southwest Building 2

“What? Aren’t you from the 3rd floor investigation team?”

The moment Kang Seung-hyun looked at the man in front of him curiously, he approached with a very thick face and asked.

“yes. We came by order of Vice Master Dail. He said he was curious about the situation inside.”

Kang Seung-hyeon held out the 99 remaining temporary permits with a face of shamelessness.

“Huh, no matter how submaster’s order it is, I can’t let it go through.”

“Why?”

“A-san is busy, but... This side is blocking access from outsiders under Doradel-sama’s instructions!”

The submaster’s power is also formidable, but in the end, he is ranked second in the Mage Tower hierarchy.

When instructions conflict with each other, the order of the Master, who is number 1 in the Mage Tower, must take precedence.

“If you know, get out of here! hurry!”

“okay. Excuse me.”

The moment Kang Seung-hyun stepped back while replying like this.

Parbat!

“Kugeuk!”

A sharp needle pierced the boy’s neck.

“But then you have to turn it off too.”

This is because Kang Seung-hyun threw away his memorized words without changing his facial expression.

“Eek! Are you attacking right away?”

Seeing this, Kim Ho-jung shouted with a surprised face.

“That friend was a little rude, but I don’t think it was to the point of making his neck stick like that...” “

That guy just did that. This is a restricted area for outsiders.”

Either that or not, Kang Seung-hyun pointed at the man in front of him with a calm face.

“That’s why I only attacked to drive out ‘outsiders’ who entered the forbidden area.”

“Kukkukkuk...”

“Are you an outsider?”

Kim Ho-jeong looked at the man and Kang Seung-hyun with a puzzled face.

“First, look at the little girl in the clothes.”

According to Azul Continental Law, the Mage Tower Wizard must wear a designated robe while inside the Mage Tower.

It is partly to distinguish insiders from outsiders, but it is also because wearing a common outfit can instill a sense of pride and belonging as a member of the Mage Tower.

‘Magicians are so self-respecting and full of personality, the clumsy idea of tying the mage tower, which could be divided, into a single garment.’

In fact, this law worked so well that it was so effective that he dared to wear the designated robe even though he was free to wear clothes outside the Mage Tower.

“Even the Mage Tower master tends to strictly follow the dress code, but there’s no way a guy without a designated robe could be an insider.”

“Uh... is that so? But is it okay to take off your clothes because you are washing them because they are dirty?”

“Of course, being naked for a while is not against the rules.”

Due to the nature of the Mage Tower, there were many cases where the robes were contaminated or damaged, so no matter how much extra robes were prepared, they were always insufficient.

In the first place, the clothes themselves are expensive because they are made with magic weaving, so you can’t stock up on hundreds of pieces.

“But if you’re a member of the Golden Mage Tower, there’s no way you won’t recognize me.”

It’s already been a week since Kang Seung-hyeon caused chaos in the Golden Tower.

– Trampling on the deputy master as soon as he arrives at the Mage Tower.

– Put on a body recovery show in front of the master.

-Electing the next Master as ‘Health’ and so on.

Everything that happened in that brief moment was a legend, so if you are a member of the Golden Mage Tower, you have to know Kang Seung-hyun to be in a situation where you can’t know.

To some extent, even the wizards, who usually shut themselves up in the lab and didn’t know if there was a commotion outside, wondered,

‘What is all this about?’

‘Election of the next master?’

‘A healer who can heal the body... in the treatment of magic contamination?’

‘I should go and see it right away!’

It was to the extent that I threw away all my work and research and came out to watch.

“In other words, it’s suspicious that I’m not even wearing a robe, but this Mage Tower doesn’t know me?”

Even the wizards who live in the closet recognize Kang Seung-hyun, but if they don’t recognize him, there is only one reason.

“It means you’re not an insider.”

“Keep...”

said Kang Seung-hyun, putting his foot on the fallen man’s head.

“alchemist.”

Unlike wizards who use magical powers to create supernatural phenomena, although they are the same professions that deal with magical powers, beings who inject magical energy into a material to transform it into a completely different material, just like turning stone or soil into precious metals such as gold or diamonds.

That’s what an alchemist is.

“Female Alchemist?”

“Did I briefly tell you before? It’s a job that studies alchemy substance conversion using magical energy as an energy source.”

“Oh, they said they applied magic to the soil and turned it into jewels.”

“That’s what that guy just did.”

In order to block Alec’s attack, he used water as an ingredient to create slime and activated a composite shield.

“A flexible shield?”

“A skill that converts a certain substance into another substance and uses it as a shield.”

In short, the alchemist version of the magic shield.

However, unlike a magic shield that can be created immediately with only magical power, in order to activate a ductile shield, you need not only magical power but also a material that will be the base of the shield.

So, the casting speed of the soft shield is slower than that of the magic shield, but it consumes much less magic power to activate it, and it has the advantage that the debris does not disappear even if it is broken.

“By the way, the water you just used as a material for the ductile shield seems to have used basic water attribute magic.”

“Can an alchemist use magic?”

“About basic magic.”

If you’re aiming for a production-type job, it’s a good idea to learn at least some simple magic skills.

“Mr. Ziggs, a toy puppeteer, also uses earth-attribute magic. It’s similar.”

Even if it’s not necessarily a skill related to your job, there’s nothing wrong with learning skills that suit your aptitude and are good for auxiliary purposes.

“Then isn’t alchemist a completely fraudulent job?”

Kim Ho-jung shouted with an excited face.

“Things made with magic break and disappear when their mana runs out or the spell is lifted, but the ones made by them don’t disappear and remain!”

“It is.”

“This is creating something out of nothing!”

“It’s a simple idea like if you jump at the right timing when the elevator is going down, you can live.”

“Is that enough...?”

Kim Ho-jung’s excited face disappeared in a second.

“Why does Harvey have to go to the forest to collect soil instead of using magic to make clay?”

“Are you trying to bully the kids?”

“There might be, but...”

Kang Seung-hyeon said, stepping on the alchemist who was lying on the floor.

“If you use a magically created substance as an item material, the quality will drop.”

Even the water and soil created by an excellent wizard are inferior in quality compared to the real soil and water created by Mother Nature.

“Because good materials are used to make good items, I usually go out to find materials to be raw materials myself.”

“I see... then you don’t need to learn magic?”

“Materials created with magic can be used to make items for practice or to train skills.”

Kang Seung-hyeon said this and stepped on the fallen man’s head.

“More than anything, it’s essential when fighting like now.”

“Turn it off!”

Rather than using materials that are wasteful to make items in battle, it is advantageous to make cheap materials with magic and fight, and it is good to respond immediately.

“Ah, of course, the production world may think that there is no need to fight, but it’s faster to go directly to get rare materials than to buy them with money.”

That’s why when ‘enjoyers’ get crafting jobs, something like a blacksmith or an alchemist who punches quite a few adventurers with their fists tends to be born.

“It’s not like the first time I’ve seen a battle when I take out my shield and defend it right away.”

“Did it explode after being hit by one? It must be crap.”

“That’s because the other person is Alec.”

There is no doubt that he is a fairly skilled alchemist by the standards of the citizens of Azul.

“Well, since the Golden Mage Tower interacts frequently with alchemists, it wouldn’t be strange if there were excellent alchemists around, but...”

Kang Seung-hyeon asked, looking down at the fallen man.

“It’s a bit strange to wander around a restricted area that even magic tower wizards can’t enter.”

Even Dail, the vice-master of the Mage Tower, couldn’t come in here, and Dail didn’t even know that there was an alchemist here in the first place.

“What is your true identity?”
