Chapter 516 - Visitor
“But we should at least do something. Why don’t I assemble some people and chase those outsiders away at least?” Gavin actually knew that Lin Li was right. Even the members of the Pharmacist Guild enjoyed the freedom of going wherever they wanted. Hence, they couldn’t lock the senior pharmacists up like slaves.
“Nah, let them be. They can’t poach my people unless they have what it takes.” Lin Li was extremely confident. He thought, They’re trying to poach my pharmacists? What a joke. They might be able to do so if they have a pharmaceutics Guru.
Gavin wanted to say something else, but could not think of a better idea even after racking his brains. He had just chased the people away, but he was just saying those things in a moment of spite. Although they were openly poaching the pharmacists, there would definitely be a public outrage if they were to get into a physical fight. Regardless of how strong the Tower of Dusk was, they might not be able to secure a footing in the Breezy Plains.
Hence, the young owner of the Tower of Dusk, President Felic, allowed the matter to go on without doing anything. Not only did he not take any precautions to prevent the pharmacists from interacting with others, he even instructed the receptionists who were in charge of receiving the mages to summon people to help him as long as the outsiders tried to bribe him.
“Master Felic!” Wilkinson yelled at the end of the lecture, trying to stop Lin Li who was about to leave.
“Oh, is there a problem?” Lin Li asked as he turned around, though he already knew what Wilkinson was about to say.
“Master Felic, there is a sudden increase in the number of people outside. Could we trouble you to arrange for us to get some help? Whenever we go out, we end up getting harassed, and it takes us a lot of effort to shake them off,” Wilkinson said resignedly.
Time passed while he waited anxiously, and the doors of the Tower of Dusk finally opened slowly. Everyone in the plaza immediately sobered up, but they did not rush forth at once. After all, they were all figures of status, and still had to maintain their image during the recruitment. Hence, they slowly made their way into the hall of the Tower of Dusk in an orderly fashion.
As everyone walked into the Tower of Twilight, the spacious and elegantly decorated hall immediately made Gaget’s eyes light up—especially the furnishings, which exuded a strong and refined elegance. However, Gaget soon shook his head secretly, and sighed in his heart while thinking to himself, Such a delicate elven-style decoration may not be bought even with an exorbitant amount of money. It’s such a pity that the President of the Tower of Dusk can’t afford to enjoy such a luxury at all1. What is he thinking?
Next, Gaget witnessed another strange thing. Although he had heard it from his close friends, he still couldn’t believe it. As it turned out, they could register an appointment with the mage who was in charge of the reception at the Tower of Dusk. Although their attitude seemed hostile, they did not make things too difficult for them.
