Chapter 215 Please Be My Student

After Fla handed over the visiting card, the servant who had been waiting for a long time led the guest into the door.

"Fla, I'm going to go say hello to Lady Phyllis. It shouldn't take long. Please wait here for a moment." Adam said and walked to the second floor.

This wizard's tower, which swallowed up all the wealth and hard work of a great wizard, has thirteen floors in total, and the special reception room is on the second floor.

The warm-colored home decoration makes the visiting guests feel relaxed, and the rune carvings and flowing magic everywhere also teach the less polite guests to be decent.

There was a low table under the magic lighting, and three soft chairs were placed around the table. The surface was made of flexible monster fur, and the inside was filled with a kind of duck monster fluff. Phyllis was sinking into the soft chair.

She was a mature and charming woman. More than two hundred years of experience had not taken away her vitality, but instead added a bit of maturity and elegance after experiencing many vicissitudes of life.

With blonde hair, light blue eyes, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and a tall and curvy figure, if she didn't have the strength of a top-notch transcendent, the dishonest imperial nobles would probably have some illegal thoughts about her.

In front of her, Yufei, who had light blonde hair and a pretty face, looked like a tender daisy.

Seeing Adam coming in, Phyllis put down the book in her hand and said, "Adam, my future student, how come you have time to visit an old woman like me?"

"You're joking. Isn't there a mirror in this tower of yours that would put any wizard to shame? Even if I agree with you, the men of Belward will not agree," Adam replied.

"But I already have a guide on the extraordinary path, you know."

When talking to a wizard, if you don't know how to start, just compliment his wizard tower. As a beautiful lady, although Phyllis didn't say it, she always showed extraordinary patience when others complimented his appearance.

Sure enough, hearing this, Phyllis shrugged her shoulders and couldn't help laughing: "It's really more comfortable to chat with you, Adam. I wish those damn old guys in the clock tower could be like you."

In Noraz, spellcasters who can directly drive magic power and spells are unique, with powerful strength, profound knowledge, and lofty status. They also have many names, such as magicians, mages, and spellcasters. The organization unique to mages is a loose parliamentary organization called the Clock Tower.

After talking about the clock tower with Ms. Phyllis and the fun that Belle Ward had in recent days, Adam got down to business after the pleasantries.

"Ms. Phyllis, I'm here because I need your help with something."

Hearing that they were talking about serious matters, Phyllis also stood up and got into the mood: "What's the matter? Tell me."

"I would like to ask for your permission to allow me to enter your library and borrow some books. You know, I have some research on plants." Adam said.

The library is on the sixth floor of the Mage Tower, and entry to borrow books requires Phyllis's permission.

Phyllis tapped the table with her finger. "Is there some problem that cannot be solved? And you know, my library mostly contains low-level knowledge, customs, travel notes, and Clock Tower publications from previous years. I don't put too advanced knowledge there."

"This is exactly what I want. My talent is not that good, and the road to magic is bumpy and difficult. I think sufficient knowledge may lead me to my own path." Adam said sincerely. He only learned some basic magic knowledge and the general framework from Yufei, and the rest was hard-core skills. He planned to sort it out systematically to lay the foundation for advancement.

"It's good that you think this way. Knowledge is the shortcut to magic. Some regrets in talent are nothing. The most important thing about magic is to make your wishes come true." Phyllis said the last sentence with a fanatical look on her face.

"I'm glad that you can understand this truth. Are you sure you don't want to be my disciple? Even if it's just academically." Phyllis continued.

Adam thought for a moment and said, "Please allow me to think about it for a few days. I hope you don't mind."

"It's okay. I'm very interested in your wonderful ideas and clever minds. Waiting will only make the wine more mellow." Phyllis said with a smile, "I am very sure that although your magical talent will make me lose face in the education field, your botany papers will make me proud in the academic field, especially under the guidance of a botany master like me."

Phyllis sounded a little arrogant when she spoke, but she really could. After all, the papers she published in the field of botany and the related technical achievements she made were enough to slap the face of anyone who dared to refute her.

Phyllis, the top power in the continent, the leader of Nature's Blade, the founder of magic plant techniques, controls more than 50% of the high-end magic potion trade in the entire continent. Every magic plant he cultivates becomes a material that wizards scramble for. Zoya's favorite flower field magic is the work of this great wizard.

Matching her talent in botany is her unique position in potion science. Her hands, which are capable of mixing more than 90% of potions, are affectionately called "God's Hands" by the wizards.

"Adam, have you achieved any results? I smell the scent of more than a dozen plants on you, but there is also a strange smell." Phyllis suddenly asked.

Adam nodded. "I have some trivial research that is almost finished, and I will need your guidance then."

Phyllis nodded: "No problem, is the knowledge in the library enough? Do you want me to open up some advanced knowledge to you? That is my life's work, you know?"

"Thank you for your generosity, but I need to systematically sort out my knowledge framework to understand what is missing. I will come to visit you again then." Adam shook his head. Phyllis took good care of him for Zoya's sake, but he couldn't get too much of it. Advanced knowledge would only be passed on to direct apprentices, and this favor was too great.

This meant that they had agreed to Adam's request and had agreed on the borrowing requirements, which meant that they had finished talking about the business. The atmosphere between the two of them became more harmonious, and it was almost evening until Adam left.

"Believe me, my old friend Zoya will be very happy to see you now." Phyllis said when she said goodbye, and then adjusted her glasses, "By the way, Adam, I like the glasses you gave me."

"My pleasure."

Standing at the door, Adam felt that he had benefited a lot from the academic discussion with Phyllis.

'Perhaps becoming her student would be a good choice.'

Led by Fla, he got on the carriage. There were so many rules in this crappy capital.

'It's time to give the natives a little otherworldly shock.'
