Chapter 505: The Unexpected Parliament of Theventon (3 updates)
After getting off the floating carriage, Matthew looked at the figures coming and going. There were many familiar and unfamiliar faces, and a different feeling came to his heart.

Now you have successfully penetrated into the enemy!

No matter how strong a fortress is, it can be conquered from within.

Matthew is not in a hurry now, and developing the territory slowly is the way to go.

Matthew, who had already thought about this clearly, looked at each arcanist in a relaxed manner.

He's picking his "targets," looking for the right skills and expertise.

Even though he had many discussions with the Grand Arcanist, he also made some arrangements.

But even so, the chance of achieving the goal is still only about 30%.

In order not to make this trip in vain, Matthew naturally wanted to get some extra gains.

After all, most of the arcanists in the Netheril Empire will gather here now.

There are so many top figures in magic, enough for Matthew to accumulate many expertise and spells.

Although for a short period of time, these feats and spells cannot function.

But as long as the Gulf Territory continues to cultivate spellcasters.

It won't be long before spellcasters who don't lack resources and skills will be able to grow up quickly.

Therefore, Matthew was very generous and bold.

In fact, it's not just Matthew who is looking at arcanists, quite a few arcanists are paying attention to him.

Who made him stand beside Cenoman?

Even though many of the actions of the Grand Arcanist Kenoman seemed to everyone to be deviant.

However, the identity of the opponent's Grand Arcanist and many initiatives that benefit ordinary civilian spellcasters can also attract a considerable number of supporters.

Among them, some of the arcane masters grew up thanks to the kindness of Kennoman.

Even if some arcanists have "complicit", at least the kindness is still there.

Therefore, many arcane masters who have heard about Matthew, a student acknowledged by Kennoman, are more interested in him.

"Ding, get advanced expertise-free material information for casting, 10% progress..."

"Ding, get advanced expertise-free material information for casting, 20% progress..."

"Ding...the progress is 30%."

"..."

"Ding, you have obtained all the information about advanced expertise - casting without materials."

Advanced expertise - Spell casting requires no materials LV1, instead of advanced spell casting materials, the casting cost is increased by 50%.

This feat is rare and valuable.

Personally, it reduces the caster's dependence on casting materials.

From the perspective of the entire Gulf Territory, mastering it together with other specialties that reduce spell casting costs can save a lot of resources.

More importantly, casting a spell without using materials is a prerequisite for the extraordinary feat - "Casting without consuming materials".

This is what Matthew values!

In addition to those cherished special expertise, Matthew also did not let go of strange spells.

Just like the famous high-level arcanist Mordenkainen who just passed by the great arcanist and deliberately pretended not to care!
Looking at his familiar bald head, Matthew felt quite interesting and leaned over calmly.

Kenomanman, who was behind him, glanced at him and walked towards the conference hall without a care.

The meeting is about to start.

Matthew sat next to Mordenkainen, not paying attention to the latter's sharp gaze. Instead, he showed a bright smile and said:

"Intermediate Arcanist-Matheur."

As a senior arcanist who was about to enter the legendary rank, Mordenkainen always felt that there was something wrong in Matthew's eyes, but he couldn't say anything, so he just replied coldly:
"High Arcanist-Mordenkainen!"

Matthew's smile grew brighter as he looked at the large list of spells on Mordenkainen's spell list.

"As expected of you, magic treasure house."

Mordenkainen, the future Grand Arcanist at the pinnacle level of demigod.

Of course, his most acclaimed achievement is the creation of a large number of exquisite and practical spells.Including but not limited to "Mordenkainen's Loyal Dog Technique" and "Mordenkainen's Mansion Technique" which are very practical for adventure.

Matthew's favorite 7th level spell - "Mordenkainen's Sword".

There is also a 9-level legendary spell that both the enemy and ourselves are very afraid of - "Mordenkainen's Disintegration"!
This spell is also called "Mordenkainen's Undressing"!
The effect is significant, that is, it is easy to be severely beaten by teammates after releasing it.

Even though Mordenkainen's strength is far from reaching its peak, the various spells he created have not yet been modified to achieve optimal effects.

But he still made a huge name in the Netheril Empire.

As a result, he became a frequent guest in arcane newspapers.

Many players have studied and studied his spells.

Many of these spells have been found to be very effective.

In contrast, Matthew naturally accepted it with an unceremonious smile.

In order to ease the tension and embarrassment between the two parties, Matthew pointed to the figure in the center of the conference podium in the latter's suspicious eyes and asked without thinking:
"Will there be any other Grand Arcanists attending the meeting today?"

After being slightly stunned, Mordenkainen shook his head and said in a determined tone:

"They don't have time!"

The high-ranking Grand Arcanist will naturally not waste his precious time and life attending a meeting that cannot provide any knowledge or magic secrets.

Except for Cronoman!

Because of this, when the meeting began, Kenomanor sat on the chair in the center circle.

The chairs were all empty, and no one was sitting down.

In the center of the conference table was a middle-aged low-level arcanist who was somewhat stout.

However, he was already very familiar with this scene. After everyone sat down, he couldn't wait to shout:
"The 249th Sewendon Conference has been officially held. All arcanists can speak freely and put forward their demands and opinions."

As soon as he finished speaking, many arcanists who had been prepared started shouting.

"The orcs in the western hills must be dealt with as soon as possible. They have influenced me to collect materials for experiments..."

"Yes, these stupid orcs always make a mess of everything..."

"They must be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise their number will increase and they will become annoying to death."

"..."

At first it was just a few of them, but Matthew saw the originally quiet arcanists around him start spitting at a very fast speed.

"Those orcs in the Western Hills?"

"Can't you solve it yourself?"

"Help Nanfang, I almost have nowhere to conduct experiments..."

"Tch, why can't it be our Karl Plain..."

"We in the north must also strengthen our defense..."

The entire conference room was noisy, like a vegetable market, not as "elegant" and "magical" as Matthew imagined.

Matthew watched with great interest the Sevington Council, which was like a quarrel in the market.

On the surface, arcanists divide areas according to territory.

But in fact, so many arcanists are divided into three factions.

A faction close to the Elf Kingdom of Cole.

He advocated preserving his strength and was unwilling to give up the interests of the demiplane, so he mobilized soldiers.

Arcanists are a powerful faction.

He advocated building more floating cities and destroying the orcs with the force of thunder.

Moderates.

Led by Kenoman, he advocated preserving the territory and protecting the people.

The three parties talked very lively, which made Matthew very enjoyable to watch.
