The relatively short old man was called Kefan. He was also a local solo Mage in the Holy Light City and was currently a level-4 Great Archmage.

The silent old man’s name was Kadun. His hometown was in the Desert Capital bordering Ferrero City. He was currently a level-5 Great Archmage.

There was no need for an assessment for such Great Archmagi. After a rough confirmation, the Nicholas family clan admitted them directly.

Since they had become one of them, they naturally had to have some corresponding benefits. Zoro, who was beside Norton, flipped his hand and took out a few bottles of extraordinary-looking pills, handing them to the three new retainers.

The three of them took a look and were a little stunned. There was really a greeting gift…

It was just nice that it could speed up their cultivation speed in the Great Archmage realm. The grade-5 pill was a variant of the Heavenly Cycle Pill, but the medicinal effect was much stronger.

There were ten pills in a bottle. Even they, as Great Archmagi, were a little speechless at such a greeting gift.

Such a precious cultivation necessity was actually used as a greeting gift…

The few of them chatted and laughed. Soon, the three new retainers each went into a wider and more comfortable guest room.

After coming to the Nicholas family, the three of them were very well-behaved. They carefully controlled their magical power in a small range to prevent it from disturbing others… Moreover, there were many people in the family who were of higher levels than them. It was better to be careful.

After they had settled down, the few of them each took out the bottle of pills in their rooms and opened them to swallow the pills…

The medicinal power slowly spread throughout their bodies. They formed a seal with their hands and focused. In just two seconds, their eyelids suddenly opened. No!

Such a cultivation speed was abnormal!

It had far exceeded their expectations, and it was even after they had been mentally prepared. After all, they had long known that the Nicholas family clan’s levels were increasing rapidly.

They must have been enhanced by multiple magic formations, otherwise, they would not have been so fast!

Recalling the rumors about the magic formation master earlier, they quickly smiled, their faces flushed. “I’ve followed the right person.”

Without thinking further, they emptied their minds and quickly entered a mysterious cultivation state.

The next day, the Nicholas family clan had three more Great Archmagi. This news spread rapidly.

Everyone who heard the news was surprised.

It was rare for a Great Archmage to become a retainer to another family clan. One of the reasons was that after becoming a retainer, one could not be as carefree as before to wander freely… The reason why one had embarked on the path of a lone Mage was mostly because of freedom.

Of course, magical power cultivation was also what they valued.

For example, among the four large family clans in the Holy Light City, most of them only had one or two Great Archmage retainers. The Tries family clan, which had occupied the Nicholas family territory earlier, did not even have one.

However, now that the Nicholas family had made a move, they had received three Great Archmagi on the first day alone!

No matter how great the reputation of the Nicholas family clan was, with their alchemy, weapon refinement, and magic formation masters, it was still extremely shocking!

Those were three Great Archmagi! They were not Great Magi, certainly not ordinary Magi. They were Great Archmagi!

While everyone was surprised, another piece of news quickly spread.

In the Nicholas family, there was an auxiliary magic formation that could speed up cultivation!

This news had first come from the mouths of the 20-odd Great Mage retainers. At that time, many of them did not believe it at all. They kept thinking that these new retainers had been bribed, and that what they had said were like the merchants. None of them spoke the truth…

But then, the three Great Archmagi also nodded. The news was true.

Then, everyone in and outside the Holy Light City was in an uproar again. The cultivation speed of the Nicholas family clan’s magical power had increased by tenfold!

Such a powerful auxiliary magic formation usually only existed in the hands of the small group of top powers. Usually, the effect could only be achieved by making use of an environment with abundant energy.

But now, the Nicholas family had actually activated such a powerful magic formation just a few days after they returned?

The Treis family, which had occupied this place previously, had not had such a capability either…

It seemed that this was an extremely powerful auxiliary magic formation formed by the Nicholas family clansmen in their land!

Thinking about it carefully, the strange magic formation, which had inexplicably appeared in that battle to return, which could deflect the attack of a Great Archmage, and the Feng Shui Magic Formation, which had been reorganized when the Nicholas family was rebuilding the family cemetery… The Nicholas family might have a magic formation grandmaster!

Some people had already guessed so and even thought that they had seen through the truth.

In the next four days, a large number of independent Magi came to the Nicholas family to undergo the retainer assessment. Many of them had even specially rushed over from other places.

In the first five days of recruitment alone, the Nicholas family clan had more than 70 Great Mage retainers and seven Great Archmagi!

Not to mention the others, even Romo, the Old Ancestor, was pleasantly surprised by this outcome.

This Recruitment Talisman was quite useful.

That night, in a guest room in the Nicholas family.

Harris, who should have focused on cultivating magical power, had been unable to enter a cultivation state…

To be precise, his state for magical power cultivation had not been good these few days.

In the middle of the night, Harris, who was uneasy, came out from his cultivation state again. He could sense the calm state of the new retainers in the Nicholas family, as well as the fluctuations of energy of varying concentration and strength. He could not help but sigh softly in his heart… He was envious.

He was a little envious of these new retainers. He was envious that they could enjoy the auxiliary enhancement of ten times the cultivation speed of magical power.

According to Harris’ careful observation over the past few days, all the retainers who had joined the Nicholas family, regardless of their realm, had cultivated at an unbelievable speed.

Sigh… Why does this magic formation, which assists with magical cultivation, have the ability to recognize people?

Harris was listless. He was already here, but he still could not enjoy it. The more he could not get it, the more he wanted it…

Apart from being surprised, he also felt an unbearable itch in his heart. It was nothing more than a matter of life and death.

Harris had already been stuck at the peak of the Great Archmage realm for nearly 40 years. He was almost 270 years old now. If he still did not break through, he would only be able to live for another 40 years at most… He was not sure if he could break through to the next level of magical power in these 40 years.

Previously, he had always thought that the hope of advancing to become a Divine Mage was extremely slim…

But now, he seemed to have seen some light.

If he could obtain the help of the Nicholas family, a magic formation with a cultivation speed ten times faster, and also Ron, a level-6 alchemist… He might really be able to break through!
