The Mercenary Guild was established by the top mercenary regiments of Icacia Continent. In the Mercenary Guild, the mercenary members could be graded as mercenary and mercenary regiments. They could also receive mercenary tasks in exchange for rewards.
However, Locke was most interested in another super guild—the Mage Guild.
Just like the Mercenary Guild, Mage Guild was an organization spread all over the Icacia Continent, established by the leader of the Mages Tower on the continent. The Mages Tower had been established for thousands of years, and the members of the board of elders were all powerful mages.
In addition, there were also the Warrior Guild and the Swordsman Guild. Each guild was one of the top forces on the continent with branches all over the kingdoms.
Of course, among these guilds, the Mage Guild was on the top steadily and the strongest. Therefore, the Mage Guild was also an extraordinary existence in the forces of various kingdoms.
Whether it was the Mage Guild or any other guild, they all had their own grading standards. After passing the corresponding assessment, the guild would issue the badge representing the rank.
After entering Dikas City, Locke and Athena found a hotel named "Moca" to live in. After booking rooms, Locke immediately decided to go to the Mage Guild to take part in the mage examination. After all, with the identity of the mage, it would be more convenient for him to act and save a lot of trouble. Most importantly, the identity of the mage could save money!
In the lobby of the hotel, seeing the noble and radiant Athena, the men's eyes were burning, full of desire to gaze at her body up and down. Several strong men who had drunk were even a little tempted and wanted to come up to accost her.
Locke's gaze stared, bursting out a suffocating chill, and a powerful aura erupted from his body.
Everyone in the hall trembled and felt as if there was a huge stone pressing on their chests, making it difficult for them to breathe.
What a powerful aura!
The strong men who were about to move stood still in horror. Their backs were wet with cold sweat and woke up from fear.
The others also looked away in a hurry, afraid that Locke would make trouble for them.
But people who could survive here all had brains. Let alone the dangerous aura from Locke just now, just judging from the temperament of Athena, they knew that she must not be an ordinary person that could be desecrated by them.
After intimidating the people in the tavern, Locke and Athena walked towards the Mage Guild. The Mage Guild was the tallest building in Dikas City, so the two soon found its location.
A tall building appeared in front of Locke and Athena. Compared with other buildings in the city, the Mage Guild was more classical.
The hall of Mage Guild was very lively. However, when they saw Locke and Athena come in, the people who had been chatting suddenly stopped. The silence of the crowd was surprisingly consistent, which made the hall quiet all of a sudden.
Locke and Athena were too eye-catching. The young man was handsome and gentle, while the young girl was elegant and beautiful.
Noticing that everyone was silent and staring at the two of them, Locke touched his nose and was speechless. Were the two of them so attractive?
"Hello, Sir. What can I do for you?"
A maid came over with a comfortable smile on her face. It could be seen that the maid had been strictly trained to speak in a gentle and decent way.
Looking at Locke's handsome face, the maid's heart skipped a beat. She had worked in the Mage Guild for a long time, but it was the first time that she had seen such a handsome boy.
Locke smiled and said directly, "I want to take part in the mage test."
"He actually wants to take part in the mage test."
"He came to take part in the mage test at such a young age. He must be from that family."
When they heard that Locke was here for the mage test, they began to discuss in a low voice.
The maid's eyes lit up, and the admiration in her eyes became more intense. "Come with me."
Athena found a vacant seat in the hall and sat down. She picked up the books prepared for the guests on the shelf to waste time and read while waiting for Locke's examination.
Although the others were amazed at Athena's face, they didn't dare to come up to disturb her when they saw her frosty face.
Soon, the maid took Locke to the room marked "examination of level-1 mages".
Looking at the words "examination of level-1 mages", Locke stopped. Under the puzzled gaze of the maid, he smiled and said, "Sorry, I forgot to tell you that I'm not going to take the examination of level-1 mages."
The maid was a little stunned. Obviously, she misunderstood Locke's meaning. "Sir, if you are an apprentice mage, you don't need to take the mage examination."
Locke shook his head and said slowly, "I'm here for the examination of level-2 mages."
Examination of level-2 mages
The maid was stunned for a few seconds and then came to herself. "You... Are you really here to take the examination of level-2 mages?"
Locke nodded seriously.
The maid took a deep breath and finally believed him.
With great shock, the maid took Locke to the room for examination level-2 mage. "Mr. Amos, this gentleman is here for examination mage."
The middle-aged man called Amos nodded and gestured for the maid to leave.
Level-3 wind mage.
Looking at the three silver magic marks on the middle-aged magic robe, Locke was still a little surprised. It was Mage Guild, and the one in charge of the examination was a level-3 mage.
When Hodgia Amos raised his head and saw a young man standing in front of him, he was slightly stunned. Then he complained, "Ellie is getting more and more careless. Why did she bring you here?"
Then he lowered his head again and pointed at the door with one finger. "Turn left when you go out. The examination of level-1 mage is over there."
Then he immersed himself in the study of the magic book again.
"Mr. Mage, I'm here to take part in the examination of level-2 mage."
Just as he was concentrating on the magic book, he heard Locke's voice.
Hodgia raised his head again, seeming to understand what Locke meant. After a while, he looked at Locke suspiciously and asked, "You said... You are here for the examination of level-2 mages?"
"Yes."
Locke said affirmatively.
Hodgia closed the magic book and stood up from his seat. He circled around Locke and looked at Locke up and down.
He asked in a low voice, "Which system are you here for the mage test?"
"A fire mage."
Locke replied. Although he also knew water magic, it was one of his trump cards, so he would not expose it.
Hearing this, Amos nodded and went straight to a high platform that looked like a table. "Let's take the magic power test first. Since the Mage Guild here lacks level-3 mages from other systems, the level-2 mage test here will be conducted by me and the chief."
Then he turned to look at Locke and said, "By the way, my name is Hodgia."
"Locke Capet."
Locke said with a smile.
"Locke Capet? It sounds familiar..." Hodgia murmured, but he still couldn't remember where he had heard of this name.
The decoration of the room was very simple. Not far away was a high platform, on which there was a crystal stone to test magic power. More than 10 meters away from the magic power test platform, there was a two-meter thick stone wall, which was incomplete. It seemed that it was used to test magic.
The magic array on the walls was not satisfactory. It could be seen that it was used to reinforce the walls to prevent the magic from losing control,
Under the lead of Hodgia, Locke arrived at the front of the magic power test platform. On the left side of the crystal stone was a test pillar, which was divided into two parts. The first part's point was from 1 to 10, and the second part's point was from 11 to 20. It looked like the mercury thermometer Locke had seen in his previous life.
Looking at Locke, Hodgia said slowly, "This crystal stone can test level-2 magic power, and the magic power of level-2 mage must reach 11 points."
Locke nodded and put his hand on the crystal stone, ready to inject magic power. At this moment, an idea suddenly came to his mind. What would happen if he infused his divine energy into the crystal?
"If the crystal stone is broken, don't I need to be responsible for it?" Locke hesitated for a while and turned to look at Hodgia. No one knew what would happen if he infused his divine energy into the crystal stone, so he planned to ask clearly in advance in case he would be asked for compensation. After all, a crystal stone needed more than 10000 gold coins.
Locke's words amused Hodgia. Would the crystal stone be broken? Did this little guy think of himself as the level-6 big mage?
He said casually, "Don't worry. Just boldly inject magic power into it. Although this crystal stone is not at a high level, it won't go wrong even if a level-4 mage comes."
Upon hearing this, Locke nodded and closed his eyes, ready to inject divine energy into the crystal stone.
Hodgia also fixed his eyes on the test pillar on the left side of the crystal stone, trying to see how powerful the person who dared to take part in the level-2 mage test was.
However, a few seconds later, the crystal stone didn't respond at all.
Locke opened his eyes and asked seriously, "Don't really need me to compensate?"
"You don't have to compensate!"
Hodgia said fiercely.
After confirming it again, Locke didn't intend to keep strength. He controlled his divine energy and poured it into the crystal stone.
Crack~
A crack suddenly appeared on the crystal stone.
In the astonished eyes of Hodgia, the crystal stone broke into pieces.
The crystal stone was broken?
The air was quiet for dozens of seconds, and Hodgia stood still like a piece of wood.
