A mage's journey begins with a battle mage.

Chapter 264 The Beginning of the Carnival

"You really are..."

Professor Wang was speechless.

He had received the news early on that Jiang Shuzhou had entered the nuclear reactor.

At first, he didn't take it seriously, thinking that Jiang Shuzhou just wanted to broaden his horizons. Who would have thought that the other party would directly pull out a fuel rod.

This terrified him; if there were a nuclear leak, it would be a huge problem.

The two mages were not worried at all about this situation.

Master Navis must have had his reasons for doing this.

However, for safety reasons, they still put on a layer of mage armor.

The situation appears to be stable now.

"It's nothing serious. Nuclear radiation is just that. It's overrated and can't cause biological mutations at all."

Upon hearing this, the other staff members quietly moved their bodies further away.

"Alright, let's sign the contract."

Jiang Shuzhou carefully checked the terms and conditions, and only after confirming that everything was correct did he begin to draft the contract.

"Read this carefully before you sign, and ask me if you have any questions."

Under normal circumstances, Jiang Shuzhou would give such a reminder.

Although Jiang Shuzhou isn't a devil and wouldn't set up a bunch of traps in the contract, it's still necessary to give a reminder.

"OK."

Professor Wang nodded, then looked at it carefully.

After a while, he carefully read through all the contents, and after a brief communication via headset, he finally signed his name.

"Alright, the contract is done, and I've finished my tour. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving."

Jiang Shuzhou was preparing to return to the main plane to explore; it was too boring here, and besides, he still had to go on diplomatic missions to other forces.

It's a good opportunity to broaden his horizons. After all, Jiang Shuzhou has always been involved in the Mage Alliance, and his understanding of other places is limited to what he sees on the forums. These forums are too low-level and their information may not be accurate.

"Aren't you going to eat something before you leave?"

"No, I don't need it, and besides, I've already eaten."

Now that Jiang Shuzhou has finished dealing with everything, he has no more worries on Blue Star.

As the ancients said, "While one's parents are alive, one should not travel far."

But Jiang Shuzhou's parents have both passed away, so it's time for him to travel to other worlds.

Perhaps, decades or even centuries later, he will come back to visit his hometown.

But now, he's leaving.

With intense spatial fluctuations, Jiang Shuzhou, along with Crane and Koros, disappeared from sight.

"Sigh, I really am..."

Professor Wang looked haggard.

"By the way, Professor Wang, we've found his true identity through facial analysis and matching."

"That's what the technician next to me said."

"Who?"

"His name is Jiang Shuzhou, he lives at..., he is an orphan and has no close relatives."

"..."

Professor Wang fell silent.

What can you use to bind someone who has no connection with society? What reason would they have to stay here?

Has he ever had a girlfriend or boyfriend?

I didn't expect you to be so open-minded.

The technician shook his head.

"No, he didn't continue his studies after finishing high school. He had good grades in junior high, but later he became addicted to online games and started doing game boosting, which caused his grades to drop and prevent him from getting into university. He could have gone to a junior college, but he gave it up."

No father or mother, no relatives or friends, no love.

"well……"

This is true freedom from all attachments.

"Regardless, we must protect his house first, and preserve it as a cultural relic!"

This may be the only proof that he exists in this world.

"I'm going to report on my work."

After saying that, Professor Wang left.

Professor Wang was in a complete frenzy, but Jiang Shuzhou was oblivious to it all.

Jiang Shuzhou was in a good mood after taking a trip to Earth and resolving the remaining issues.

He planned to go to Hamlet's territory first and put his collection in the collection room.

Jiang Shuzhou's collection is not large, and it mainly consists of items of commemorative value.

The real value lies in the potions. He usually treasures the first potion, and if he can't find it, he can make another one.

It's just for my own enjoyment anyway.

Once you reach the high-level mage rank, you can use a private teleportation array.

This teleportation array allows only one person to pass at a time.

Unlike ordinary teleportation arrays, private teleportation arrays do not have fixed teleportation locations; they are all adjusted by high-level mages themselves.

You can teleport anywhere you want.

With a spatial fluctuation, Jiang Shuzhou returned once again to his loyal Hamlet.

To be honest, this feels more like home than the cold, impersonal houses in Q City.

At least there are still people to greet us.

"My lord."

Several retainers came to greet him.

There was no pomp and circumstance this time, mainly because Jiang Shuzhou had specifically instructed that it was unnecessary.

Moreover, they had other, more important things to do.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! If the lord's cooking isn't done well, I'll skin you alive!"

The stove fire, which had been dormant for a long time, was lit again.

A large number of half-human figures were busily working in the kitchen.

Jiang Shuzhou once said he would hold a banquet with his followers, and he kept his word.

Halflings are natural chefs. There aren't many in Jiang Shuzhou's territory, but that's not a problem. With just a casual remark from Jiang Shuzhou, someone sent these halflings over.

"Do a good job and don't try anything funny."

The fake Judas had become like a normal person; his tone and facial expressions were just like those of a normal human being.

Aside from occasionally performing joint-reversing movements that are incomprehensible to ordinary people.

But it doesn't matter. Anyway, Judas's explanation is quite reasonable. He practiced jujitsu, so it's normal for his joints to be flexible.

A large number of people from the Benevolent Ministry were watching every corner of the castle.

Nothing can escape their surveillance.

Although no one would normally dare to cause trouble in the territory of a high-level alchemist, what if they did?

Within the city of Hamlet, there was a jubilant atmosphere.

"Gentlemen, praise be to the great Lord Navis!"

"To celebrate Your Excellency's promotion, food and wine will be provided in unlimited quantities for the next seven days!"

The streets were bustling with people, and rows of tables lined both sides of the road, laden with food and drinks.

Everyone can enjoy the best meal of their life on this joyous day.

"Long live the Lord! Long live the Lord!"

"The Lord's kindness can never be repaid!"

The underground world.

"Derby, why aren't you happy?"

Golan, who had joined the Benevolent Department, looked puzzled.

"Happy? Of course I'm happy."

Derby forced a smile.

As Jiang Shuzhou's territory, the underground world naturally received no special treatment.

Even in the world below, food and wine filled the tables.

But with such a strange person by his side, how could Derby possibly be happy?

"Then remember, you have to work after you finish eating. After all, even though it's a celebration, everyone has to work for four hours to keep things running."

Golan's voice and phrasing remained strange, but he clearly knew Derby's concerns, so he said nothing and instead left Derby's side to survey the surroundings.

All those who are disrespectful will be punished.

Watching Golan leave.

Derby then began to wolf down his food.

However, he still shouted it out before eating.

"Long live Lord Navis!"

The next seven days will be a rare period of celebration for Hamlet.
