Chapter 1317: Zarien II

Knocked on the door, Rhodes gently pushed open the cabin door, as soon as he entered, a stale musty smell came, and there was a strong smell of medicine. Rhode's expression remained unchanged, and he carefully observed everything in the cabin. .
The firelight illuminates the scene inside the cabin, and the outside light cannot enter it. The simple books and chairs are scattered with various classics. A huge crucible is erected at the rear, and there is a flame burning below. A gray robe Human beings are standing in front of the crucible, watching the boiling liquid inside.
Noting Rod's arrival, the mage turned around, and Rod also saw his face clearly.
The old and thin face of the mage has sharp eyes that are not commensurate with age, and the wisdom accumulated in the years condenses in his eyes, as if he can see everything.
Rhode seemed extremely familiar with this kind of look. Not long ago, Rod's body also had such a look, and the effect was even more powerful than the mage in front of him.
Under the gaze of the mage, Rhode's face remained unchanged, and he saw no urgency. He seemed extremely calm for a while.
"Zarion." Shen Sheng said, "I don't remember asking you to bring food."
Rhode calmly replied: "It's been a long time since your last meal, so I made my own claim and asked the crew for food."
From the previous crew member, Rod got a lot of information, which can be used to cover up the abnormality of his behavior.
Seeing Rhodes answering this way, the mage showed a little surprise: "You are intentional."
Rhode shook his head and said, seemingly respectfully: "As your apprentice, these are the things I should do. I understand that your obsession with spells is always studying spells for many days, even forgetting to eat."
The mage took a deep look at Rod, and then said: "Place the food on the table, you can go out, and come in when I call you."
Seeing the mage saying this, Rhode didn't have any extra words. After placing the tray on the table, he walked out of the cabin without a word.
When he came to the aisle outside, the sense of gaze that existed in Rhode still did not disappear. Rhode knew that the mage inside the cabin was still watching his every move at this time.
After discovering this, Rod seemed to be standing casually on the aisle of the stern, so he looked at the ocean where he could not see the end, without any extra action for a while.
Soon, the sense of gaze that existed in Rhodes gradually disappeared, but Rhodes did not relax his vigilance, and always regarded the mage as still watching himself.
Through a brief contact with this mage, Rhode saw a lot of useful information.
Rhode realized that the identity of this mage should be the on-board mage here, responsible for casting aid when the ship encounters an attack or a storm, so that the creatures on the ship are out of trouble.
Generally speaking, the on-board mage has a very high status among the crew, especially on ships that are headed in the direction of high accidents, the on-board mage on it has a considerable right to speak, in the face of disasters that cannot be confronted by manpower In order to survive, the crew must rely on the power of the mage on board, which also has extremely high requirements on the ability of the mage.
Through his own perception, Rhode noticed that this mage has the strength of the sixth order. Even if he just entered the sixth order and put it in the magic school of Bracada, it can be regarded as close to the top.
Judging from the previous crew's words, the crew's attitude towards this mage is not respectful, far from the awe of the high-level mage.
Perhaps for other crew members, they only know that the mage is very capable, but it is difficult for them to distinguish whether a mage belongs to the fourth-level formal mage or the sixth-level high-level mage. Only the existence of the same caster can detect the difference in the strength of the mana fluctuations, so as to determine the rank of the caster.
Faced with this situation, it is often necessary for the onboard master to find an opportunity to show his own strength, or to clear the sky when the rainstorm is coming, or to separate the huge waves that are hitting the head, in exchange for the respect they deserve.
Recalling the situation inside the room, this mage seems to be refining the potion, and the entire refining process is almost over, which no doubt made Rod have many ideas.
Rod, who has thoroughly researched potions, can naturally see the whole process of refining potions. Although he does not understand what kind of potions the mage is refining, in the process of refining, Rhode is confident that there will be no Anything wrong.
After thinking for a while, something in Rod's arms suddenly shook.
Feeling the anomaly coming in front of him, Rod took out the thing and saw that the shock was the shell carried by Zarien.
Knowing that this was the way the mage called, Rhode stopped waiting and turned into the cabin.
This time, the interior of the cabin was a lot darker, only the candlelight on the wall was still shining, the flame below the crucible had already extinguished, and only the residual temperature remained.
At the table where the mage sits, there is still some food left in the dinner plate, but Rhode's focus is obviously not here, but in the crucible at the rear.
Inside the crucible, the residual temperature is radiating outwards, but Rhode can't see the traces of the potion. The refined potion is obviously already included in the space ring by this mage.
Because all the time in the space ring is still, it is a feasible way to directly store the crude potion in the space ring. Even if it is taken out later, the potion will still maintain the temperature before the income, which is also the favorite of the potion master. A method used.
"Collect these." The mage said lightly when he saw Rod entering the cabin.
Due to the precious nature of spells, casters who generally do not have any property, and want to learn spells, in addition to joining the freelance chamber of commerce and finding ways to obtain gold coins, can only choose to become an apprentice of a powerful mage like Zarien.
It is said to be an apprentice, but the work to be done by a master apprentice also includes the part that belongs to a servant. When you encounter a good master, the apprentice is treated well, and you can learn new spells from time to time. If you encounter a grumpy master It is inevitable that the master apprentices will inevitably be punished frequently and will not receive knowledge for a long time.
The magical school in Bracada is also not free to teach magic. To gain more knowledge, you must rely on the master's own efforts.
After hearing the mage's instructions, Rhode didn't rush to clean up the plate at first, but asked with some doubt: "Is your magic potion refining completed?"
At this moment, the mage's face suddenly changed: "Who told you about the potion? I have never taught you this knowledge."
