Above the mage!

Chapter 201 The Struggle of the Upper Class

Ceres Mage Tower.

One of the only two wizard towers in the Principality of Sean.

On the highest level of the Mage Tower, the top of the tower, made of special materials, is constantly absorbing sunlight and providing lighting for the entire Mage Tower.

In the spacious and elegant room, there was only a table made of the third-level magical plant Qinglin wood.

Behind the table is a chair made of the same material.

A middle-aged man in a gorgeous magic robe sat on a chair with his back to the door, looking particularly indifferent.

Middle-aged men are accustomed to this kind of indifference.

It was this indifference that allowed him to take the position of dean at the youngest age in the history of Ceres College.

The top floor of the Mage Tower has no walls, only a layer of transparent glass that is visible in one direction.

Looking down at the entire Seres College through the one-way glass and watching the students busying around below is the middle-aged man's favorite scenery.

But today, he was not looking at the scenery, but was thinking about something.

"Dean, He Xi is dead." Behind him, the vice chairman who had just returned from the medical clinic said respectfully.

As a senior executive in charge of college affairs, there is actually not much to praise about this vice chairman.

He has neither outstanding talent nor dazzling achievements.

Even the mage level is only three rings, which is the mage level of most members of the committee.

The reason why he can sit in this position is because of his family background and his ability to get along with everyone.

But now his greatest support is actually Shel Ian in front of him.

Because he is the vice chairman who is only responsible to Sher Ian.

As soon as He Xi fell last night, Shell Ian directly asked him to seal off the rune workshop immediately and obtain the secret order of the magic circle as soon as possible.

In fact, he didn't know what Shel Ian was up to.

Even in his opinion, what valuable legacy could a head of the Rune Department who had not produced any results for decades leave behind?
But since he had received the order, he had no choice but to do it.

"Did you get the secret order?"

".No, there was just a little trouble." The vice chairman wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead and reported the specific situation in detail to Shell Ian.

After hearing this, Sher Ian was silent for a moment.

After all, this not-so-small trouble ultimately stemmed from his original intention to annoy He Xi.

He said calmly, "This matter is very important."

"You handle it as quickly as possible, and make sure it is foolproof and kept confidential."

"The Rune Workshop has been sealed off. All we need to do later is draft an asset recovery deed, and the Rune Workshop and everything in it can be returned to the academy."

The vice chairman had already sorted out the follow-up ideas on the way here.

Gao De said: We must always follow the rules.

The problem is, they are the ones who make the rules.

"Well done." Shell Ian praised the vice chairman lightly.

Seeing that Shell Ian did not blame him for not getting the secret order back and even praised him, the vice chairman finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he still didn't understand why he was so anxious.

Shell Ian naturally didn't explain this to him, he just waved his hand and dismissed him.

Shell Ian stood up in the empty room, walked to the one-way window, and looked down at the college buildings of varying heights and the pedestrians who were like ants below, without saying a word for a long time.

Human ambition is endless and grows day by day.

A long time ago, his greatest ambition was to become the dean and take charge of Ceres College.

But when he really sat in this position, he found that he was not satisfied.

Even the appetite is getting bigger and bigger.

Jeroth XIII is old.

The most likely candidates to inherit the throne were the eldest prince, Wenlun Jellos, and the second prince, Brandon Jellos. Wenlun Jellos had the support of the Court Mage Group.

And he was standing behind Brandon Jeros.

As long as he can help Brandon Jellos ascend the throne, he will become the true number one wizard in the Principality of Sean and enjoy all the wizard resources of the Principality.

With sufficient resources, at his current age, he has a great chance of being promoted to a five-ring wizard.

Now, all he has to do is keep adding to the ante for Brandon Jealous.

While I was thinking like this, two more people knocked on the door.

A handsome blond young man dressed in fine clothes walked in, followed by a middle-aged wizard with a calm face half a body length behind him.

Brandon Jealous.

The second prince of the principality.

Quincy Usher.

A second-level rune master of the Ether family, and also one of the few rune constructors in the Principality of Sean.

"Dean Sheil," Brandon Jeros said respectfully as he entered the room.

Sher Ian was his strongest supporter.

At least before he sat on the throne, he kept a low profile in front of Sher Ian.

"Second Prince, He Xi purchased a large amount of rune construction materials this year. Although it was through his own channels, nothing in the academy can be hidden from my eyes." Shell Ian said.

"Quincy Uther has seen the specific list of materials and is sure that it is not just the materials needed to make a set of third-level rune construction."

Quincy Uther beside Brandon nodded and said, "Those materials are enough for He Xi to make five or six sets of third-level rune constructs."

"As long as we get the multiple sets of third-level rune constructs made by He Xi, everything can proceed according to Dean Shell's plan." Brandon Jeros said.

Sher Ian nodded, and then said to Quincy Uther, "There was a small accident. I guess we won't be able to hand over all the information in He Xi's hands and the finished third-level rune structure to you until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Quincy Usher didn't take it seriously and didn't ask what the accident was.

Based on his understanding of Shell, he didn't think there would be anything in Shell's territory that Shell Ian couldn't control: "As long as this matter can be kept secret, one day earlier or later won't make much difference."

Sher Ian narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "Once you get those finished third-level rune constructs, you can declare to the public that you have successfully made a third-level rune construct and have been promoted to a third-level rune constructor."

"In this way, the power of the second prince will be greater than that of the eldest prince, and the balance will tilt towards us."

Quincy Usher nodded slightly in agreement without saying anything, but in his heart he admired Shel Ian to the extreme.

Only he could come up with such a plan.

At the crucial moment of the fight for the throne, when the two forces were evenly matched, a new third-level rune constructor appeared in the principality. He was the only third-level rune constructor in the entire principality after Jose's death, and he clearly joined the camp of the second prince Brandon Jellos.

How powerful a bargaining chip would that be?

Shell Ian had to forcibly create a "third-level rune constructor" for the Second Prince's camp, regardless of whether it was true or false.

The most terrifying person in the world is someone who is capable but has no bottom line.

And Shel Ian meets both of these conditions.

This is already the top-level struggle in the principality.

In such a struggle, the stubbornness and obstinacy of a young student are just useless struggles that are not worth mentioning.

Creating a "Level 3 Rune Constructor" requires a lot of operations.

The longer this matter is delayed, the easier it is for the eldest prince's people to notice clues. If we want to ensure that there are as few loopholes as possible, we must be quick and keep the entire process confidential.

That's why he sent people to seal off He Xi's rune workshop as soon as possible.

"Perhaps with the information in He Xi's hands, I can truly be promoted to a third-level rune constructor." Quincy Usher said again.

Compared to cooperating with Shell Ian's plan and using the third-level rune construct made by He Xi to become a "fake third-level rune constructor", he is more looking forward to becoming a "real third-level rune constructor" through the information and knowledge left by He Xi.

"That would be the best." Shell Ian said calmly, but he had no expectations at all.

He only believes in himself.
