The Wizard's Secret Journey

Chapter 179 Invitation

Whitney Restaurant, first floor private room.

"...Therefore, to judge the authenticity of the world's blessing, one must not only rely on the blessing itself, but sometimes the words and actions of the stall owner can also serve as a basis for judgment...and in many cases, this is even more reliable."

"In short, the best option is to avoid vendors who act suspiciously and have a poor reputation."

By this time, the dinner in the private room had progressed to the middle, and Felicity had basically finished explaining some of his experiences in judging the authenticity of World Blessing, which he had summarized from his early research.

“I understand.” Lynn nodded. Although he could tell whether the world’s blessing was real or fake just by touching it, he still gained a lot from Felicity’s explanation.

At least, when others ask him about the world's blessings, he won't be completely ignorant.

A wizard who spends all his time buying World Blessings would easily arouse suspicion if he knew nothing about World Blessings.

By the time Felicity finished talking, Yara had already finished eating for a while, her eyelids were drooping, and she yawned several times.

“Let 006 take you to rest, okay, Yara?” Felicity asked softly.

“Mm.” Yara nodded, and 006 next to her immediately bent down and picked her up.

The girl was indeed sleepy and was about to fall asleep in 006's arms, but then she seemed to remember something, sat up, and waved to Lynn: "Goodbye, Lynn-gege."

Lynn was somewhat surprised and quickly said softly, "Goodbye, Yara."

No one dislikes a polite child.

Watching the interaction between the two, Felicity found Lynn increasingly pleasing to the eye. After the door to the private room was closed by Number 006, she said:
"Do you know Lynn, the leader of the Silver Ring World Conquest Association?"

"I only know a little," Lynn replied, a sudden realization dawning on him.

At their level, daily meals are no longer so important, and the wizarding world doesn't really have a culture of banquets; invitations are usually made to the laboratory or a proper reception room.

Lynn originally thought that Felicity had invited him to dinner only to keep Yara company, who was still a mortal and needed to eat every day.

But now it seems that Felicity had other motives for inviting him.

“Since you have some knowledge of this, I won’t waste any more words.” Felicity looked at Lynn and said seriously, “I have accepted a mission from the association to explore a newly discovered Level 1 world. Currently, the team does not have enough people to meet the departure requirements, so I would like to invite you to join us.”

A new world exploration mission?
Lynn was taken aback, paused, and said, "But I'm not a member of the Conquest Association..."

Felicity raised an eyebrow: "It seems that your understanding of the World Conquest Association is indeed only a little bit."

"Although the Silver Ring World Conquest Association is backed by an academy, it is not only open to academy wizards. Did you know that?"

"know."

"Then you should also know that it is extremely difficult for non-academic wizards to obtain membership in the World Conquest Association."

"If the association's missions, while requiring a certain number of participants, also restrict participation to only member wizards, then it will be difficult for non-academy wizards from other places to find enough teammates to complete the missions."

"Therefore, the World Conquest Association only requires membership when accepting missions, but that member can recruit more non-member companions to participate in the association's missions."

“Moreover, and most importantly, conquering the world requires not only powerful high-ranking wizards, but also a large number of ordinary wizards… Therefore, you don’t need to worry about membership status.” “I understand.”

Before coming to Upper Silver Ring, Lynn did do some research, but it was mainly about the free market outside the World Conquest Association. He didn't pay much attention to the World Conquest Association itself.

After all, Lynn knew that she couldn't get association membership for the time being.

However, exploring a new Level 1 world... Lynn was quite interested in this, and after thinking for a moment, he continued to ask Felicity some questions about the Conquest Association.

Felicity was clearly a member of the World Conquest Association, and knew all about it. She also told Lynn many of the association's secrets that could not be found outside the association.

Lynn then realized that although the Silver Ring World Conquest Association was affiliated with the Silver Ring Academy, it was actually more like an open platform for specific members.

In the astral plane, the number of worlds is countless. Apart from a few high-value worlds that the Silver Ring Academy will organize large armies to conquer, the other worlds discovered by the academy are outsourced, with the academy providing technical guidance, fortress rentals, and taking a share of the profits.

At the same time, members can choose to hand over the worlds they discover to the association for development, and then receive a share of the profits.

The world where Felicity accepted the quest is a Level 1 world that Silver Ring Academy recently outsourced.

However, since this world is in the early stages of discovery and its value has not yet been determined, no high-ranking wizards have taken it over yet; only the academy has issued a few exploration and investigation missions.

Some are exploring extraordinary resources, while others are investigating the world's environment.

Felicity accepted the exploration mission with the highest reward.

The requirements are to create a complete map of the other world, and to conduct a preliminary investigation of the native inhabitants to understand their strength.

"So, do you want to join, Lynn?" Felicity asked one last time. "Considering you've just advanced to the next rank, I can offer you a reward of 100,000 magic stones, and you can also have the World Blessing you gain during the mission."

After a long pause, Lynn said, "Let me think about it some more, Your Excellency Felicity."

To be honest, Lynn was very tempted by both the mission of exploring the other world itself and the reward offered by Felicity.

Moreover, this mission is much more reliable than the Black Moon Society going to explore the ruins.

Firstly, it's backed by Silver Ring Academy, which will sign a strict contract; secondly, Felicity is an acquaintance, so there's a higher level of trust.

However, now that the world's blessings have been bestowed upon him, Lynn wants to go into seclusion to further enhance his abilities.

Furthermore, although Felicity was an acquaintance, one should always be wary of others. Even with the Enforcement Order in hand, Lynn dared not say that he could definitely contend with such an academy wizard who stood at the pinnacle of the first tier.

Felicity, the master of puppets, is not just a name; his reputation is built from the flesh and blood of the first-tier wizards who fell at his hands.

This senior wizard from Silver Ring Academy is far more powerful than the two wizards from the Holland School.

"What are your concerns?" Felicity asked, frowning.

Lynn naturally couldn't tell the truth outright, so after thinking for a moment, he said:
"I do have some concerns. First, I have just been promoted and my strength is weak, so I am afraid that I will be a burden to you. Second, I am currently on a mission for my school and cannot spare the time for the time being."
