Arcane Linguist

Chapter 12 Life in the Mage Tower
Early the next morning, Roland woke up to the sound of melodious music, and found that the magic lamp in the room had automatically turned on.

The curtain not far away was slowly opened, showing the outside scenery.

This mage's tower is set up among the mountains, the clouds are steaming in the distance, the white mist is dense, and the mountains are undulating, like a veil.

The first ray of sunshine in the morning just happened to shine over from the mountain peak, which made people feel high-spirited.

Roland sat up and half-lyed on the big bed leaning on the soft pillows. After quietly enjoying the morning view outside the window for a while, he closed his eyes slightly and began to meditate.

The mage's meditation does not require a high posture, just to stay focused. After a while, I connected to the spell quota layer of the magic net, and confirmed that all the spell quotas have been charged according to the default settings during last night's sleep. .

"Current spell quota: 2/1...

Note: Level 1 quota is the specially authorized (unable to master) spell "Language Proficiency"..."

Now turn to the spell-casting layer, chanted the spell to activate the quota, and began to cast spells with the help of the magic net.

As the faint light came on, Roland felt a cold current rushing through his mind, and instantly became sober.

"Apply for the "Ancient Elf Language" teaching course."

He didn't waste time, and quickly connected to Ta Ling with his mental power.

"The application is approved, the target position is locked, and the screen projection technique is being activated."

0.6 meters in front of him, a standard-sized screen projection light curtain emerged, on which an intellectual female mage wearing glasses and holding a pointer pointed to the small blackboard and began to explain.

Roland obviously didn't learn the ancient Elvish language, but because of the foundation of the modern Elvish language in his memory and the spell effect of mastering the language, he became familiar with it.

Learning with this method is naturally as silky as a hot knife cutting butter.

"Using such spells to learn is really getting twice the result with half the effort."

After studying hard for an hour, Roland put away his notes, opened the door, and walked out.

Outside is a corridor, leaning on the railing, you can see that there are several uniformed maids in western-style shirts already busy in the living room below.

The place where the trainee mage lives is the same as the official mage. It is a standard three-story duplex house. This is because each floor of the mage tower is three times the height of an ordinary building, which is exactly divided into three parts to form a duplex structure.

Each mage has his own exclusive suite, which contains study room, bedroom, bathroom, entertainment room, gym, warehouse, kitchen, dining room, large balcony and other facilities. If you have leisure time, you can also choose according to your taste and preference Make further modifications.

At the bottom is the living room that can be used to hold small gatherings. You can hold arcane salons or other gatherings with fellow mages. In the memory of the predecessor, there are even some anecdotes that some mages took this opportunity to gossip about. It was once extremely longing .

"Good morning, Mr. Roland, your breakfast is ready, please take it easy."

Seeing Roland coming down the stairs on one side, the head maid greeted her and retreated with the other maids.

These are personnel who belong to the logistics post of the Mage Tower and do not serve Roland exclusively, but they will still take care of his three meals a day and all chores, as long as any housework is left to them.

In addition, the security work in the mage tower is also in charge of the tower spirit and the mage tower guards. The mages living here don't have to take care of their daily life like wild mages, and they don't need to prepare alarm spells, detect poison and other spells , can free up more spell quotas and time and energy in learning, which can be regarded as a huge advantage invisibly.

After breakfast, Roland left his suite and went upstairs to the library.

The general structure of the Orvisto Mage Tower is the same as other Mage Towers. The lower negative floor is where the teleportation array and other foundational protective magic circles are located. It also has the function of some basic material warehouses. The first floor is the adventurer's hall. , providing various public services within the territory.

Generally speaking, functional organizations such as adventurer guilds and professional guilds will settle here.

This is because the mage tower often means a key node of a magic net, and the Arcane Empire Atrein relies on them to form a huge network, covering all parts of the empire's territory.

The archmages who own the mage tower can be regarded as the lords of the empire era, and these public services for adventurers and various business travelers are also due obligations.

The second layer is the commercial area, which is often settled by major chambers of commerce and plane colonial companies.

The third floor is generally the residence of servants and staff in the tower.

The 4th, 5th, and 6th floors are the residences of the mages. Today, Roland lives in a corner of the south corridor of the 4th floor.

Above the seventh floor are mostly training grounds, classrooms, and libraries, which can be called teaching areas.

Layer 8 is the experimental and magic material storage area.

As for the ninth floor, it is naturally the exclusive floor of the tower owner.

Some relatively wealthy archmages even connect some demiplanes in it to continuously expand its capacity.

However, ordinary mages do not have permission to enter there, and Roland has no intention of wandering around for the time being. He plunged into the library and studied hard by himself with the help of the rich collection of books and various resources here. From time to time, he copied and wrote in his notebook. .

These are very expensive things for adventurers and wild mages. Seeing more and learning more is equivalent to earning for nothing.

Copy it into a small book and take it back to review, it is even more refreshing to eat and take it.

In this way, half a month passed, and Roland wandered in the ocean of knowledge, and he felt the purity and beauty of being in an ivory tower.

Learning makes him happy, almost every day, he can feel the tangible improvement like a sponge absorbing water.

Not only in terms of arcane arts, but also the understanding of the mage tower to which it belongs, and the understanding of this world.

Formerly a student of Flandre College, in fact, he was only in the upper middle position, and the Mage Tower ranked lower in the examination was between success and failure. He was not the kind of outstanding scholar-type talent.

This is also the reason why Cynthia thought that Roland had performed supernormally and got lucky.

But when Roland traveled over, he added some knowledge and experience from his previous life, and his development potential had rocketed.

Before I knew it, it was early August.

On the morning of the 5th, Roland left the room and went to a small hall near the library on the seventh floor to meet with the same batch of students who were admitted to the Orvisto Mage Tower.

At this time, he learned that this tower only recruited three students this year, and one of them was himself.

The admissions of all the mage towers are personally checked by figures of the archmage level. This Orvisto mage tower has always been famous for its difficult exams, and its academic qualifications are extremely valuable.

Students who can pass this kind of recruitment are naturally valuable to make friends with.
