The message was clear; they wanted to take him as an apprentice.
Xi Ligui hadn't mentioned this just now.
He glanced at her, equally surprised.
Having a guide, for any professional, would smooth the journey ahead, saving many detours.
If it had been during his time in Black Stone Town or Lundham City, he would have hoped for such a mentor.
To receive guidance in spells and have a backer.
At that time, a level 18 professional was almost like a deity.
If anyone dared to bother him, just reporting the name of his level 18 master would solve many troubles.
But now it was different; level 18 professionals were a common sight on Gold and Silver Island.
Even his skeletons were level 18.
And no matter how powerful, they couldn't withstand machine cannon fire.
Moreover, he himself had already reached level 19, higher even than the mage before him.
It would obviously be inappropriate to become a disciple in that case.
His thoughts raced.
