Agent Time Travel: Apocalypse in the Magical World

“127、128、129、9、9、9……”

Qin Xiaoxian was doing push-ups with a distorted face.

Uncle Chang was humming a tune and washing the dishes, while Xiao Jiu was practicing throwing a wooden spear.

Their live fish dishes were so popular that they stopped selling ice cream and concentrated on cooking fish.

"Hey, cousin Xiaoxian, what are you doing?"

Several people looked up, and it turned out to be Qin Li with his legal guards.

"I've met Master Qin." Uncle Chang stood up to say hello and secretly hid the kitchen utensils behind him.

"Okay, okay, stop hiding. Who doesn't know that the fish cooked by you, Chef Qin, is delicious?"

Qin Li twisted his waist and sat down on the stone bench.

Because in the past few months, Qin Xiaoxian's fresh fish dishes have become famous and he has made a lot of money. However, the head of the Qin family was not angry and claimed that he had embarrassed the Qin family's mage.

The few times Qin Mei came back, she also helped Qin Xiaoxian fight with Qin Shaoran:

"My little fairy doesn't have the talent of a mage, so he can't make a living on his own? If he doesn't steal or rob, who will he lose? He's better than the playboy before, right? The little fairy doesn't need me to provide living expenses now, he's grown up! Besides, , I didn’t say anything as a mother, what are you worried about?”

Qin Shaoran dropped a teacup at that time.

Qin Mei smashed one of Qin Shaoran's buildings at that time.

Then the matter dropped.

Qin Li came here today, but he didn't know why.

"I wonder why Master Qin condescended to come to this humble residence?" Qin Xiaoxian asked while wiping his sweat.

"Hey, cousin Xiaoxian, isn't this the annual Magician Family Rookie Cup Magical Fighting Conference about to begin? This year it's our Qin family's turn to host it."

"I won't participate. You know me. My ambition is not to be a mage now. I want to be the number one chef." Qin Xiaoxian shook his head like a rattle.

"Oh, my good cousin, even if you want to participate in the level, it's not enough. Even if it is enough, the clan leader will have to let you go? Hahahaha."

"Then what are you doing?"

"The Lord of the City attaches great importance to this Magic Fighting Conference. He said that he wanted to watch the competition in person, and even asked by name that he wanted to eat the fish you cooked."

"Master, even City Lord Gu knows about our fish?" Uncle Chang's joy was beyond words.

"So?" Qin Xiaoxian asked.

"So the clan leader has spoken and asked you to go back and be the chef. He also asked for leave for Magister Qin Mei and the Blade Sect, and will come back to reunite with you for a few days."

Qin Xiaoxian suddenly felt a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. It felt strange.

"Ah? Madam, you want to watch the game too? Let's go, we must go. This is also a matter of winning face for the Qin family, isn't it, young master?" Uncle Chang's eyes were filled with peach blossoms.

Seeing what Uncle Chang said, Qin Xiaoxian felt that there was no reason not to go, so he said: "Okay, since they are all serving the family, and they are officially designated, I decided to reserve the table this time and give the clan leader a nine-point eight." 20% off.”

Qin Li: "..."

There was no talk for a few days, and now it was the day of the magician family rookie cup competition.

There are more than ten magician families in the entire Duoluotuo City, and the Qin family in the south city and the Luo family in the north city are the two largest and most powerful.

The annual Rookie Cup French Fight will be held in various families in turn. Through the grandness of the conference and the performance of the younger generation of each family, we can strive for some political tilt, such as some low-level positions with real power and the rotation of management rights. etc.

Of course, high-level official positions such as city lord are appointed by the empire's central government, and it is stipulated that they cannot serve in the place where their family is located, because they are afraid of local separatism.

Qin Xiaoxian looked at the majestic manor in front of him, and his heart didn't waver.

The last time I came here seems to have been many years ago, and the memory fragments are blurred.

It’s not my own home, so there’s nothing emotional about it.

Uncle Chang was different, his eyes were filled with tears.

Xiaojiu was pulling a flatbed truck with a lot of ingredients and ingredients on it. There was no way, no matter how many magic rings there were, they couldn't hold so much fish.

"Isn't this Young Master Qin Xiaoxian?" The guard at the door recognized Qin Xiaoxian, "All debris and waste in this truck have to be entered and exited through the back door."

Uncle Chang glared and was about to curse.

Qin Xiaoxian waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter. It's not a big deal. If you don't let me in, I won't do it. When the clan leader and the city lord asked about it, they said that the gatekeeper Awang wouldn't let me in."

"What is Awang?" Xiaojiu asked.

Chang Bo and Qin Xiaoxian showed it to Xiaojiu at the same time with unusual tacit understanding: "Woof woof, woof woof."

"Oh, dog." Xiao Jiu suddenly realized.

The guard at the gate was about to get angry when he saw this, but saw Qin Xiaoxian seriously asking Xiaojiu to turn the car around and go back.

Now he was no longer calm, and immediately said with a smile: "Master Xiaoxian hasn't been home for a long time, why can't he make jokes? Come on, come on, please come in."

Uncle Chang walked in with his head held high.

Xiaojiu pulled the car and followed.

Qin Xiaoxian discovered that carriages from various families were arriving one after another, and the mages who got off the carriages had the same style of robes, but the patterns and embroidery on them were different depending on the family's power.

And my robe was bought with my own money, so it is plain.

But what does it matter? Anyway, I'm not from your Qin family, I'm not even from this planet. Qin Xiaoxian thought so.

Entering this large courtyard, there is a wide vestibule, fountains, shrubs, rockery sculptures, and more.

The small building that collapsed next to the reception room was Qin Mei's work.

It has not yet fully recovered, and scaffolding is still being erected, with only some taller trees transplanted outside to provide shade.

The green lawn is paved with gravel as a stepping place according to people's frequently walked footprints. It stretches and branches, leading to the main building area and various functional areas.

Qin Xiaoxian and the other two went straight to the kitchen area.

Seven or eight cooks were already waiting at the door of the gorgeous and spacious kitchen.

They were also very surprised at how this useless mage, who was well-known to half of the people in Tuoluotuo City, suddenly transformed into the chef named Yeluzi named by the city lord.

"What are you still watching? You go peel the onions, you go shoot the garlic, you guys are unloading the truck, and you guys don't need to cook the staple food?"

Chang Boyi's arrogance and arrogance are clearly displayed. It seems that this man has become rich and his back is much tougher.

"No, you can just help unload the car, but you are not allowed to step into the kitchen." Qin Xiaoxian said.

Everyone was stunned.

"Master, this is food for hundreds of people." Xiao Jiu reminded.

"I'm not afraid of the leakage of business secrets." Qin Xiaoxian said helplessly.

When everyone heard this, they all looked enlightened.

"Well, fellow chefs, I believe you can understand me. I am not very good as a mage, and I will only become a chef in the future, so naturally I will keep the secret of this secret fish dish as a treasure. This little money will be used as a treasure. I want to apologize to everyone, but I have to bother a few chefs to help outside the kitchen." After saying that, Qin Xiaoxian looked at Uncle Chang.

Uncle Chang reluctantly started to take out the magic vouchers, but Qin Xiaoxian snatched them away, selected a few, and handed them to the chef.

These chefs have never seen such a polite mage. They are very generous with their offers, including hundreds of silver coins at once. Naturally, they are grateful and promise not to enter the kitchen, but they will cooperate fully.

Everyone was very busy unloading the truck, putting the fish in, butchering it, garnishing it with vegetables, and marinating it.

"Master, you see there is still some time before lunch time, aren't you still busy?" Uncle Chang said with a flattering smile.

"Go, go, remember to say hello to Magister Qin Mei for me." Qin Xiaoxian smiled.

"Look at you, me here, that one, hehe, I'm going to go first and I'll be back in a while." Uncle Chang jumped up and left.

"Bring her this food box, it's specially made." Qin Xiaoxian called to Uncle Chang.

"The young master is still careful. Can the madam eat the same as others? Haha."

"It's a double portion. You two have finished eating together. You can come back later."

"Master, you are really..." Two hot tears burst out of Chang Bo's eyes instantly.

After Uncle Chang left, Qin Xiaoxian stopped smiling and began to take out various ingredients and the sauce he prepared from the magic ring.

During lunch time, dozens of tables were dotted in an open space in the back garden, and some pre-dinner pastries and fruit wine were placed first.

Qin Shaoran, as the host clan leader, walked onto the podium with a prosthetic leg.

"Dear friends, I am very happy to come to our Qin family to participate in the annual Magician Rookie Cup Magic Fighting Conference. What is different this year is that our great City Master Gu is here in person, which is simply brilliant. Please invite me below City Lord Gu speaks."

"Since Chief Qin asked me to say a few words, I will say it." City Master Gu, wearing a sixth-level thunder magic robe, walked onto the stage with a smile and said.

Qin Xiaoxian, Qin Mei, Xiaojiu and Uncle Chang were sitting at the same table.

At this moment, Qin Xiaoxian's mouth twitched, why in every world, this leader always loves to speak in official style.

"As we all know, we magicians are a symbol of nobility and a manifestation of the empire's powerful strength. Therefore, cultivating outstanding young magicians is the most important thing for every city lord. I hope that in this conference, we can compete to the best of our ability. Out of friendship..."

"My child, you have lost weight recently and become darker. You haven't called me mommy lately?" Qin Mei said.

Sister, you are not much older than me, okay? Qin Xiaoxian had a dark look on his face: "Shh, pay attention to the rules of the venue."

Qin Mei smiled and stopped talking.

Gu Yan was talking eloquently, but Qin Xiaoxian felt drowsy after listening to it.

"...I announce that this Rookie Cup French Fighting Tournament has officially begun! Please have your meal first, and the lottery will begin in the afternoon."

There was applause everywhere, and Qin Xiaoxianhuner came back.

Lunch started.

When the fragrant grilled fish is brought to the table, people begin to feel uneasy.

"What's going on with this scent?"

"Why is the grilled fish still simmering in the soup?"

"I've eaten it! This is the latest popular street food."

"Street food? Treat us to street food?"

“Even though it’s street food, it’s hard to find a portion, and the price is not inferior to the signature dishes of big restaurants.”

"That's also unpopular..."

"I heard it was appointed by the city lord."

"...Oh, it must be low-key luxury and folk delicacies. The city lord's views and tastes are so different."

"This is so delicious!"

"I heard it was done by a mage!"

"Mage? You are willing to fall for yourself."

"If my child dares to be a cook, I will hit the wall and die, right, Magister Qin Mei?"

"The useless mage cook you are talking about is my son. Do you have any objections?" Veins popped up on Qin Mei's head, and the wine glass in her hand froze instantly.

The fellow at the same table was sweating coldly, glancing at the smiling young man next to Qin Mei.

"Haha, haha, ah, your son is really full of personality, a leader among people, and a role model for us. I can't speak, so I will punish myself with three glasses of wine." The man who spoke drank three large glasses of red wine and lay on the table pretending to be drunk.

Since Qin Xiaoxian and others had already eaten, they were just drinking with them. Qin Mei felt unhappy and drank three large glasses.

The atmosphere at this table is extremely depressing.

Just kidding, who doesn't know that Magister Qin Mei is an extremely rare genius who advanced to the sixth level of Magister at the age of 43. He has a hot temper and dotes on his useless mage son.

"Please ask magicians under the age of 25 and above the third level from each family to use magic to imprint their names on the magic ball."

Qin Shaoran announced on the stage that there was a black magic ball suspended on the low table next to him.

"Wait a minute." Gu Yan interrupted him.

"What are the instructions from the city lord?"

"We can change it this year and cancel the rules for levels three and above. Ah, by the way, the selection standards for each functional department remain unchanged. I just want to see what other talents there are in this city in the future."

As soon as these words came out, the magicians from various families sitting in the audience whispered for a while, but seeing that the directors and deputy directors of various functional departments who accompanied the city lord all had calm expressions, it seemed that they had made the decision before. .

The direction of policy trends is often very important, and many families have begun to send people to contact the family's top leaders.

Fortunately, many young people have come from many families. There are many people who are capable but cannot participate due to level restrictions. Now they are all like chicken blood. Isn't this an opportunity in life?

Young talents from various families came on stage one after another and began to mark their names with magic.

There was a flash of black light and the name disappeared on it.

Xiaojiu looked at Qin Xiaoxian and said, "Master, you can go up too."

"I won't go, whoever wants to go can go." Qin Xiaoxian said.

"Yes, cousin, you are ruthless with your fists and kicks. It won't be good if you get hurt. Besides, Aunt Mei won't let you go up and embarrass her." Qin Ru came to a few people at some point.

Qin Xiaoxian had just noticed her coming and knew that she hadn't held it in well.

Who would fall for such a clumsy provocation?

"Snapped!"

Qin Mei slapped Qin Xiaoxian onto the ring.

"It's okay, son. I'm not afraid of embarrassment. If you lose, you lose. Just take it for a while."

Well, there are still people who like this, these tiger bitches.

Qin Xiaoxian had no choice but to get up and reluctantly used magic power to write his name on the magic ball.

Many young magicians who received the message came one after another, but Qin Shaoran suddenly announced:

"Chengzhu Gu announced that registration is over and the competition begins!"

Many low-level magicians who had just arrived looked unhappy, but they did not dare to say anything.

Qin Xiaoxian frowned.

Qin Shaoran then slapped the magic ball, which emitted a dazzling light, and then two names appeared in mid-air.

Oops, it’s still holographic projection.

"The first game is an elite battle. Let's have a duel between the only two talented mages who have reached level 25 at the age of 4 in this Rookie Cup! They are the young leader of the Luo family: Luo Yi, versus the heroine of the Meng family: Meng Junqi."

Luo Yi, the eldest son of the head of the Luo family, is extremely talented.

Meng Junqi is the proud son of the Meng family, a small family. She is known as the second Qin Mei and is fully cultivated by the family.

A magician awakens his magic power when he is around 10 years old. He reaches the second level at the age of 15, the third level at the age of 22, the fourth level at the age of 31, and the fifth level at the age of 43. This is already a very outstanding existence. At the sixth and seventh levels, talent dominates. As for the eighth level, it depends on luck, which belongs to metaphysics.

A being like Qin Mei who entered the sixth level at the age of 40 is definitely a genius who has been registered in the empire.

The vast majority of magicians are stuck at level five throughout their lives.

Of course, people like Qin Xiaoxian who are still in the first level in their twenties are also a minority among the few. They are extremely rare, not to mention unique.

Qin Shaoran walked down, and then a huge defensive formation was activated, covering the entire arena.

Luo Yi, Meng Junqi and their legal guards jumped onto the ring from the gaps reserved in the magic circle.

Immediately, the gap closed, and the surrounding ground began to rise, forming a grandstand. People eating melons took their seats, with fruit plates and after-dinner snacks at hand.

As the two magic guards quickly approached on the ring, the magic battle between the two magicians began.
