Full-Time Magister: I can control you to death

"You think you can do it with just your hands? Young man, aren't you afraid of biting off more than you can chew!" The bearded man gave Zhang Yu a lecture-like look: "Leaving aside magic arrays and materials, blacksmiths can generally only be born from fire and lightning mages. That alone is enough to shut most people out!"

Just like the alchemists in Battle Through the Heavens, they can only be fire-attribute Qi masters. It would be even better if the fire attribute was mixed with the wood attribute.

The same applies to blacksmiths. Those who specialize in lightning and fire and minor in summoning are the most popular because they can sign contracts with fire-type summoned beasts to help them forge magical tools.

In the original work, Huo Tuo fawned over Mo Fan, clung to his coattails, and accepted whatever came his way, abandoning all dignity and self-respect, all to get Mo Fan to agree to sell Xiao Yan Ji to him for hundreds of millions.

The bearded man kept babbling on, which annoyed Sun Ruizhi.

Damn it, this afternoon was supposed to be a chance to show Xu Fang the strength of the Sun family, but we ended up getting humiliated.

Yi Ping is out of the question, Sun Ruizhi is someone I can't afford to offend, and I don't want to provoke Sun Erhe either—but who do you think you are? My friend is just bragging, why should I give you permission to point fingers?

He slammed his hand on the armrest and cursed, "You frog in a well! Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't!"

The bearded man had been queuing all day and was already irritated. He retorted without backing down, "If you're so good, then you go and do it! There's a testing area over there. I'll cover all the material costs, win or lose. If you lose, you'll have to admit you're trash in front of everyone!"

"Come on, come on!"

Brother Ruizhi just can't resist being provoked, and he immediately ran to the laboratory.

Five minutes later, he came out looking disheveled.

The bearded man laughed and deliberately shouted loudly, "Little trash, where's your magic tool that anyone can make with their hands?"

Sun Ruizhi's face flushed red, and the veins on his forehead bulged as he argued, "This time it can't be considered a failure; I was just rusty..."

Then came incomprehensible words, such as "the engraving knife for the magic array is dull" and "incompatible," which made everyone burst into laughter, and the waiting area was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

The bearded man said, "A bet's a bet, and remember to shout it out loud."

Sun Ruizhi felt a tightness in his chest, wanting to shout "My father is Sun Erhe" but afraid of embarrassing his father, caught in a dilemma.

Just then, a hand landed on his shoulder and pressed him into his seat.

Xu Fang looked at the bearded man: "I was the one who said it was easy with hands, but I haven't even tried it yet."

Brother Ruizhi at least stood up for himself; it would be despicable for him to just sit back and watch.

"Whatever, my conditions remain the same." The bearded man was determined to watch the show today, and he sat down casually with his arms crossed.

"Forget it, it's too difficult."

Sun Ruizhi said in a low voice.

Sun Ruizhi had been stubborn earlier, trying to maintain his composure even when he lost, but now that he had actually tried it himself, he knew very well that this delicate contraption was incredibly difficult to make.

"Try it."

Xu Fang took the book "Introduction to Blacksmithing" and walked towards the laboratory, then pushed open the door and went inside.

The laboratory was very large, a full 100 square meters, with a large table in the middle and a forging furnace that looked like a rice cooker on top.

The shelves on the wall were also filled with various materials, all of them the cheapest kind.

This laboratory was never intended for proper forging; at best, it was a place for wealthy and idle people who wanted to be blacksmiths to indulge their passion.

"Materials...carving knife...graphic design".

Xu Fang's body shone with the light of star trails. Magic energy flowed into the carving knife in his hand, the light turned into fire, and the carving knife successfully made the first stroke on the metal.

Then came the second stroke, the third stroke... a simple wind-based magic array, which Xu Fang copied one-to-one from "Introduction to Blacksmithing".

"That's actually quite difficult."

Xu Fang retracted his statement that "anyone with hands can do it" and labeled it "okay".

—However, he didn't know that it would take an ordinary blacksmith at least half a year of training to reach his level!

If they heard that "forging is alright," I probably wouldn't be able to leave the Clock Tower Magic Association today.

"The next step is smelting, which involves constant-temperature burning. It won't be a problem to swell up that bearded man's face, but..."

Xu Fang looked at the bare metal piece that was limited to one piece per person and felt it was a bit of a waste.

Since we're already here, and someone else is paying for it, it would be a shame not to make the most of this opportunity.

"Let me look around. There are quite a few magic arrays for solidifying, burning, decomposing, compressing... I have a bold idea."

"Such a small piece of magic stone? That's really stingy."

"Let me melt it down and shape it."

"Why is the shape so weird? Never mind, let's try it first—just to be on the safe side, the Sand Shield!"

At the same time, in the waiting area.

"It's been over twenty minutes, why haven't they come out yet?" Sun Ruizhi glanced at the time, somewhat anxious.

He finished the fight in five minutes. How come Xu Fang lasted so long?

It doesn’t make sense!

The bearded man sneered, "I bet that kid just can't do it, he's too embarrassed to show up. If he knew that, why was he so arrogant before?"

Sun Ruizhi was anxious, but retorted, "What do you know!"

"Ha, go ahead and curse me, just wait and see how embarrassing I'll be later..."

boom! ! ! ! ! ! !

A loud, thunderous sound rang out, and all the magicians present jumped up in shock, their faces filled with bewilderment!

What happened! ?

Chapter 34 I, Xu Fang, am a true red descendant!

The Clock Tower Magic Association, the Trial Chamber.

"Name?"

"Xu Fang."

"gender?"

What do you think?

Snapped!

The table was slammed shut, and the water glass on it jumped up, splashing tea leaves everywhere.

"Behave yourself, don't try anything funny!" the younger judge snapped.

An older colleague stopped him and asked, "Do you know why we called you here?"

Xu Fang said, "I know. When I was experiencing forging, I accidentally blew up a laboratory."

"An accident? You think I'm kidding?" the young judge warned. "Stop playing dumb with me! Tell me! Who are you? Who sent you?"

"Whether it was intentional or accidental, you know the answer in your heart." The older judge added, "I'll just tell you that confessing will be treated leniently, resisting will be punished severely. Good behavior can help you redeem yourself, but attacking the Magic Association by unknown means is a serious crime!"

Ugh···

Xu Fang sighed.

What era are we living in? Why are we still playing this traditional game?

First, they slap a big label on someone, exaggerating a matter that could have been minor or major, and then one of them plays the good cop and the other the bad cop.

In my previous life, this would have been an outdated plot that even TV dramas wouldn't have wanted to film, yet these two judges acted as if they had the victory firmly in their grasp.

"I've said everything I needed to say. As for myself, I have a clean background and nothing to explain."

Xu Fang shifted his body; this regret chair was really uncomfortable to sit in, and it even had a magic circle on it that imprisoned magical energy, which could prevent the connection of the star track.

This kind of magical artifact is very expensive to make; it's only available in the ancient capital, and you can't enjoy it anywhere else.

The two judges exchanged a glance, but before they could speak, the door opened and a middle-aged man walked in.

"Brother Liu!"

"Old Liu, what brings you here?"

"I've come to see him; I've already reported to my superiors." Liu Guifang pulled up a chair and sat down, looking at Xu Fang: "Do you recognize me?"

"do not know."

“But I recognize you. Some time ago, on the train, you helped me kill Tu Chao, a member of the Black Vatican, and Lü Wanqing, a traitor of the Inquisition.”

"It's you." Xu Fang remembered. It was the judge who was afraid of affecting the masses and didn't dare to go all out, which led to him being beaten by two against one.

Liu Guifang said, "We have verified your identity. Xu Fang, from Bocheng, Fujian Province, both parents are deceased military magistrates, and they are entitled to the national second-level pension standard..."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of both judges softened slightly.

Based on the information, Xu Fang not only has a clean background as he claims, but he can even be described as having impeccable political connections!

"I awakened the Light Department last September and achieved the highest score in the entire school in the year-end assessment."

"In order to improve their academic performance, they voluntarily obtained the status of temporary students at the No. 2 Middle School of the Ancient Capital."

"The innate talent is a natural spiritual seed, with extraordinary abilities, including the ability to condense light into fire, and the speed of casting spells is also faster."

"Last night, he assisted the military mage in slaying the undead on the ancient city wall, demonstrating combat power far exceeding that of mages of the same level."

"I don't know if I'm right?"

Xu Fang leaned back in his chair, seemingly shocked: "All correct! You... how do you know everything?"

“Because we are the judges, professionals,” the young judge scoffed.

Liu Guifang gestured for him to be quiet, then said, "I'm telling you this to let you know that we won't wrong an innocent person for no reason, and we will never let any bad person go unpunished. Telling you everything you know is better for everyone."

have to.

It seems they still don't believe in themselves; they're practically ready to throw out the "turn back before it's too late" slogan.

Seeing that Xu Fang remained silent, Liu Guifang advised again, "I consulted the blacksmith before coming here. Magic tools won't explode if they fail to be made... You're still young, and you have a long future ahead of you."

"I need to make a phone call," Xu Fang said.

"Don't push your luck!" the young judge slammed his hand on the table.

“Yes, but our trial must be monitored throughout,” Liu Guifang said.

“Okay, but I only trust you. The other two need to stay away,” Xu Fang added.
