Chapter 227: Heading to the Elemental Tower, Ring of Arrogance!
Chapter 227 Bound for the Element Tower Ring of Arrogance!
October Seventh.
Fourth Floor of the Mage Tower.
Only Li Wei and Torresta were present.
Torresta was still in phantom form.
Li Wei looked at him and asked, "Teacher, which identity should I use when going to the Element Tower?"
Torresta said, "Just use your current identity."
"As for the Armor identity, only the high officials of the Mage Association need to know."
Li Wei nodded, indicating he understood.
Torresta rarely smiled and said, "A Tier Two peak mage is not considered weak inside the Element Tower."
"You need to change your temperament after you arrive; competition within the Element Tower is fierce."
"If you keep hiding your strength, you will lose some benefits you deserve; you can appropriately reveal some power."
Li Wei nodded, "Mm, I know."
Acting as a normal Tier Two Fire Mage was something he was quite good at.
Torresta took out a badge engraved with a Holy Cross of Light.
"Take this Holy Light Badge to the Temple of Light; at least it guarantees you can see the Archbishop, whether he helps depends on your own ability."
"If there is anything you cannot solve, contact me anytime."
"Although I have left the Element Tower for some time, there are still many acquaintances over there."
Li Wei's heart stirred slightly, thinking of Lilia.
"Teacher, do you know Harros?"
Torresta said, "You don't need to worry; although his personality is somewhat strange, he is a good man."
Li Wei nodded.
"Alright, time is about up, go in."
Li Wei walked towards the teleportation array.
Torresta reached out to activate the long-distance spatial teleportation array, sending Li Wei to the distant Element Tower.
"Be careful, the first long-distance spatial teleportation might feel a bit uncomfortable."
"Mm."
Hum!
The Mage Tower shook; in an instant, the light of the entire tower became dim.
Everyone instinctively looked up.
Martin and Comas stood outside, gazing at the shaking Mage Tower, showing expressions of envy.
"He is leaving."
"Yes, Maple City cannot keep such a genius."
The energy of the Mage Tower was all concentrated into the long-distance spatial teleportation array.
Silver light flickered, opening a spatial rift.
A suction force instantly sucked Li Wei inside.
Li Wei was like plunging headfirst into the deep sea, dark and lightless around him, occasionally flashing one or two streams of light.
Terrifying spatial pressure squeezed his body.
A thin, fragile layer of silver light outside protected him from being crushed.
Fear arose in Li Wei's heart involuntarily.
Afraid the silver light would break and he would be ground to dust by spatial forces.
Not knowing how much time passed, a white dot appeared before Li Wei's eyes.
The white dot expanded rapidly, engulfing his vision in the blink of an eye.
Thud!
Li Wei landed on the teleportation plaza.
His body swayed a few times, dizzy and disoriented, churning in his stomach.
Fortunately, Torresta had reminded him not to eat breakfast in the morning.
Now even if he wanted to vomit, there was nothing to throw up.
Gag!
Vomiting sounds came from nearby.
A youth in gorgeous noble robes knelt on the ground vomiting wildly.
Li Wei closed his eyes, steadied himself, and took a deep breath.
After ten or so times, the dizziness vanished, and everything returned to normal.
Only then did he open his eyes to survey the surroundings.
What met his eyes was a huge teleportation plaza.
Occasionally silver light flickered, and someone appeared on the plaza, or disappeared from the plaza.
Some, after landing, acted as if nothing happened and walked outside.
Others lay directly on the ground, vomiting until half-dead.
Li Wei looked up, seeing a massive floating island drifting in mid-air, with a tall tower standing in the center of the floating island.
"Is this the Element Tower?"
"Brother, is this your first time here?" After vomiting, the noble youth wiped his mouth and threw the silk scarf on the ground.
His face was still somewhat pale.
Li Wei nodded, "Mm, how do we get up?"
As a normal Tier Two mage, he probably wouldn't have flight spells.
Li Wei also didn't think everyone flew up relying on flight spells.
Glancing roughly around, most people nearby were Tier One or Tier Two mages.
The possibility of mastering flight spells was very small.
The youth smiled and said, "Someone should come to pick us up."
"My name is Karl, what is yours?"
Li Wei looked at his extended right hand but did not shake it.
He said, "Li Wei."
Li Wei walked out toward the exterior of the teleportation plaza.
Seeing he did not shake hands with him, Carl froze for a moment.
Coming to his senses, he also hurriedly moved toward the outside.
A cleaning magic array existed on the teleportation plaza; everyone's vomit was quickly swept clean.
Li Wei need not worry about stepping on filth.
Outside the teleportation plaza, a crowd gathered chatting, while a few stood apart, out of place.
Li Wei cast a glance and discovered those gathered were all nobles.
Those few individuals were commoners.
"Halt. Can you not see this place is filled with nobles? Step aside, do not be blind."
Li Wei was called out to; the other party's attitude was exceedingly arrogant.
He had heard Guse tell him that though the Central Continent was immensely prosperous, the class structure was exceptionally rigid.
Nobles and commoners belonged to entirely different tiers.
In Maple Leaf City, Li Wei had not felt it distinctly.
Only having just arrived at the Elemental Tower, not yet entered the door.
Li Wei had already perceived it.
The nobles of the Central Continent truly did not regard commoners with any respect.
In their view, even if Li Wei was a genius mage capable of entering the Elemental Tower just like them.
His status remained one rank beneath theirs.
Li Wei was too idle to quarrel with these people, turning to walk aside.
The few standing nearby saw Li Wei approach and wished to speak.
Yet after glancing at the nobles not far off, they closed their mouths and said nothing.
Speaking ill of nobles at such a time would certainly bring no good.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The sound of wind came from overhead.
Li Wei looked upward and saw a flying vessel descending.
He wore an expression of wonder, seeing a magical flying vessel for the first time.
"All heading to the Elemental Tower shall board the flying vessel."
Nobles boarded the flying vessel one after another; in a flash, the vessel was filled.
Several people walked toward the flying vessel, wishing to ascend.
A noble upon the flying vessel stated, "There is no room left; let them wait for the next flying vessel."
"What station are they? Expecting to ride the same flying vessel as us!"
Upon hearing this, the few instinctively halted their steps.
Li Wei furrowed his brow.
The one controlling the flying vessel took it as normal, telling the few not yet aboard, "No room, you wait for the next."
Having spoken, he manipulated the flying vessel to fly toward the floating island.
Once the flying vessel drifted away, only then did someone speak up, "Clearly squeezing together would fit, yet forcing me to wait for the next, dammit!"
"These nobles are simply bullying people too shamelessly!"
"The next flying vessel waits until afternoon, ah! Wasting another day once more."
Li Wei gazed up at the floating island, feeling the future days seemed not very pleasant.
Class prejudice among practitioners is so vast.
Hard to imagine how immense the gap is between commoners and nobles in the Central World.
Is it too late to flee now?
Li Wei contemplated this matter.
[Evil God Curse (Divine Rank)] Seven Precepts — Ring of Pride, Do not be arrogant and rely on others.
Li Wei froze; the curse had undergone change.
What is happening?
He nearly laughed aloud, what the hell kind of curse is this?
The ones being arrogant are clearly the nobles; what business is that of his?
He is more arrogant than the nobles!
