Arcane Lord

When I came to the library level for the first time, Xia Duo looked around curiously, but in fact there was nothing to look at. It was similar to the library before crossing, except that there were many more single-room transcription rooms and spell laboratories. .

　　 There are more than 20 districts in the library, but there are not many books in each district, and there are many books that are duplicates. Together, they may not have as many books as a middle school library before Xia Duo crossed.

　　 Knowledge is too scarce and knowledge is too precious.

　　 On the way here, Sammy has introduced this formal apprentice named "Edridge" to Chateau. He is a merchant family and smart since childhood, but he doesn't put his mind on magic, but wants to become a great businessman.

　　 But even so, he went from an ordinary apprentice to a formal apprentice. After that, he stopped working hard in magic and didn't leave, but stayed in the mage tower by the means of a merchant.

　　 acquiesced in the attitude towards him.

　　……

　　 In a transcript room full of goods, Chateau met Edridge himself, and two ordinary apprentices working here.

　　 "Edridge, I brought you a new customer, please entertain him, I have to leave beforehand."

　　 "Go, my credibility is recognized."

After sending Sammy away, Eddridge turned his attention to Chateau, "Mr. Chateau, do you need anything? As small as candles, matches, and sewing needles, as large as magic scrolls and spell books, I have it all."

　　 Edridge is the least mage-like apprentice that Chateau has ever seen in the mage tower, and he really deserves the title of "merchant apprentice"!

After talking about his plan to sell questioning opportunities, Edridge's eyes suddenly flashed light, but when he heard that the formal apprentice Garner asked questions, the light instantly weakened a little, but it was still very look forward to.

　　 "Mr. Chateau, are you really going to sell your question opportunity?"

　　 "It's true. Although I am an official apprentice now, I have just joined the Mage Tower. The opportunity to ask questions in a short period of time is not useful to me. It is a good choice to replace it with the resources I need."

　　 Edridge instantly understood Chateau’s plan, and asked again, "What about after that?"

　　 "Look at it later, if you need it, you can sell it."

"Okay, okay!" Edridge said repeatedly, and began to search for something on the cluttered desk in the transcription room. He quickly turned to a ledger and said, "Mr. Chateau, the afternoon class is about to begin. Can I start trading today?"

　　 "Yes, but can you pay in advance?"

　　 "Yes, but only half of the advance."

Speaking of this, Eddridge remembered that the two of them didn’t seem to talk about the specific price of a question, so they took out a piece of parchment and handed it to Chateau, “This is the reward for a question, usually in Payment in the form of gold coins or spell-casting materials, if you have other requirements, you can also ask, but there is no guarantee that someone will accept it."

　　 Xia Duo understands that intermediaries, they don’t produce anything, they rely on resource integration to earn intermediary fees, but Eddridge also sells some goods by himself here, which is considered part-time.

　　 It is recorded on the parchment that one question opportunity can be exchanged for 10 gold coins, or equivalent casting materials. This is the price here for Edridge. If Chateau contacted him, it would be more than 10 gold coins.

　　 But Xia Duo is very satisfied. With such a channel, he doesn't need to waste time by himself. It is a good deal for Xia Duo to exchange gold coins for time.

　　 "Can I change to parchment and ink?"

"no problem."

Edridge turned around and counted out a stack of parchment and a small wooden bottle from the pile of goods, and handed it to Chateau, "Half the advance is 5 gold coins, 3 gold coins for ink, and two parchment papers for 3 silver coins, a total of 14 sheets. A silver coin is considered a discount for the first transaction."

　　 Xia Duo nodded and took it. After that, Edridge picked a question from a ledger for registration problems and informed Xia Duo that this was the question he needed to ask in the afternoon.

　　 is also a question about [Repair], but it is a little different from what Dean asked. This question is about [Repair]'s structural transformation under different materials.

It seems a bit of an application level. Chateau speculates that this apprentice should be closer to mastering [Prosthetics] than Dean, but even if he is only a layer of tulle from the formal apprentice, he still has no qualifications to ask questions, and can only move around. Seek help from others.

　　 Although there was some emotion in his heart, if he asked him to help others with questions for free, Xia Duo would not do such a stupid thing.

　　From this perspective, the mages seem to be extremely self-interested!

　　 has been in this atmosphere since the apprenticeship stage, and I don’t know what the scenery above is like, Xia Duo is looking forward to it.

With the question conveyed by Edridge, Chateau hurriedly left the library floor and returned to the lobby on the first floor. At this time, almost all the people on the first floor were gone. Only the seven or eight apprentices who were in class yesterday were piled together. Small talk.

　　 Seeing Xia Duo's arrival, their voices became quieter, but they did not greet Xia Duo in any way, and seemed to have excluded Xia Duo from the small circle.

　　 But Xia Duo doesn't care yet. It is almost impossible for such a small circle to keep in stock. Later, according to the speed of each person's learning progress, it will quickly disintegrate, and there is no benefit. Who wants to accompany the "underachievers" to play family.

　　 Xia Duo randomly found an empty space, took out part of the dictionary that had been sorted out, and began to read and remember silently, and so on until the arrival of Gardner, who was teaching at 12:30.

Like yesterday, today’s course does not involve any specific knowledge of magic, but to establish a magical worldview for the apprentices-from the characteristics, levels, and advanced routes of the magic wizards ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ to the wizards Understanding of everything.

　　 Xia Duo is very interested in such curriculum design. He speculates that if such enlightenment courses are not summarized from long-term practice, then the person who designed these courses must be a wise man.

　　 and he is a wise man who is good at teaching.

　　 After class, Chateau asked the question Edridge explained, and Gardner answered it again, but this time instead of pointing to a book, he directly explained how to do it, and then left.

Chateau couldn’t understand. He was worried that he had forgotten. He didn’t care to take dinner. He hurried to the library, informed Edridge of Gardner’s answer, and got the other half of the reward for this question-a small bottle of ink, 14 A piece of parchment, for which he also paid a silver coin.

　　 When leaving the library, Xia Duo met Dean who had come to borrow, but this time Xia Duo did not forget to re-arrange the transaction with Dean.

　　 It went well. Dean didn't have much right to speak. Yesterday he borrowed the book "Geometric Principles in 0-ring Spell". It was very useful, but it was not enough for him to successfully master [Restoration] in a short time.

　　 He still needs Chateau’s opportunity to ask questions.

　　 The two renegotiated-within this week, Dean had to interpret the words in Naisser language for Chateau after dinner, including pronunciation and interpretation; Chateau asked Dean again.

　　 A week later, I will reappointment.

　　……

　　 In this way, Xia Duo's days in the Mage Tower gradually got on the right track-sorting out the dictionary during the day, going to class in the afternoon and using it to ask questions, looking for Dean to interpret the words of Nishite at night, and occasionally lighting candles to study after turning off the lights.

　　 Time went by little by little, and the first week that Xia Duo spent in the Wizard Tower passed.
