Wizard Bloodline

Chapter 7 Market

In the dim cabin, Ronan squatted in a corner of the wall, groped for a while in the cracks in the wall, and pulled out a palm-sized black cloth bag.

He walked to the table and dumped everything in his pockets on the table.

They are some mung bean-sized fine crystals of different colors.

"one two three"

Ronan carefully counted the fine crystal stones on the table, seventy-six in total.

Seventy-six magic stones were broken.

This is all the money he has now.

There are still a lot of worldly gold coins and gems, but in the Wizarding Land, these things cannot be spent.

The pocket watch showed that it was 9:50 in the morning, which was still very early.

Today Ronan is going to the urban living area of ​​​​the wizard's land to buy some materials and daily necessities for the next practice.

Ronan changed into a lightweight and convenient hunting suit, and put on his wizard robe as a cover-up.

The dagger usually used to cut flesh was carefully tucked around his waist.

The dagger was left over from his predecessor and was very sharp. Although he didn't have any melee combat skills, it might come in handy.

Water bag, dry food, and finally the cloth bag containing seventy-six magic stone fragments, placed close to the body.

Before going out, I brought a large bag of dried and pickled animal meat that I had not eaten during the hunting period.

When he was ready, Ronan locked the door of the hut, slid along the long vine to the end, and then chose a direction that he had never walked before and quickly disappeared into the jungle.

The entire Hoddam wizarding land is located in a huge basin, surrounded by dense and vast virgin forests.

Ronan stood on a high slope and looked at Hoddam Wizarding Academy. He could only see a white fog, surrounded by bustling towns. From a distance, there was a circle of gray and black surrounding the white fog.

Ronan opened the water bag and took a sip, a thin layer of sweat forming on his forehead.

In order to have less contact with people, my predecessor chose to live the tree house far away from the town. It still takes some time to walk there.

After walking for nearly two hours, Ronan finally approached the town.

The rugged mountain forest path under his feet became open and flat, and more and more people could be seen in front of him. Most of them were wizard apprentices like him. Loose robes were basically standard equipment.

"Sir, do you need a follower? You only need ten low-level magic stones, and you can gain my ten years of loyalty!"

"Sir! I will be your most reliable guard!..."

While passing through a small square in front of the town, a group of people came towards Ronan. Most of them were strong and strong, carrying giant swords behind them.

These are adventurers who practice the way of knighthood.

Ronan was interested in contacting them to see if he could practice the authentic knight's breathing method to alleviate the problem of the body being eroded by energy particles.

But when I think about the little money I have, there are still a lot of things that need to be purchased during this trip. These guys in front of me dare to hang out in the land of wizards as mortals. They are all probably human beings. How many magic stones will pop out of their mouths? The asking price comes.

So they all declined.

Walking through the square, you can see the dilapidated earthen walls made of gray stones. Inside is the town living area.

It is said that these walls were left over many years ago, when the Hoddam gathering place was just taking shape and there were not as many wizards as there are now.

At that time, there were many magical beasts living in the forest, and beast tides would often break out.

After the monsters in the forests surrounding the gathering place were expelled and the beast tide disappeared, Hoddam gradually developed to its current scale.

Ronan entered the town and saw three roads in front of him.

The middle one leads directly to Hoddam Wizarding Academy, the left one leads to the dwarf market, and the right one is a comprehensive market spontaneously formed by wandering wizards.

The road on the left is obviously better repaired. Wizards like Ronan who enter the town usually turn a corner and go to the right.

Ronan wanted to see what the legendary dwarves looked like, but from a distance, it seemed that there were people guarding the entrance to the dwarf market, and ordinary wizards were not allowed to enter at all.

While Ronan stopped to watch, a group of people happened to be walking from the middle road, talking and laughing, heading straight towards the dwarf market.

These people were all wearing brand new and beautiful wizard robes, and their hands that were inadvertently exposed were wearing bright rings with obvious energy particle fluctuations. They were majestic and looked like the proud ones of heaven.

Ronan glanced at this group of "academics" with envy, then turned around and went to the wizard market.

The wizard's market was quite different from Ronan's imagination. It was just an ordinary street with not many people, but the sanitary condition was worrying. He could even see animal carcasses and feces in the gutter on the roadside.

There are various low-rise buildings on both sides of the street, most of which have no signboards. If you want to know what the shops sell, you mainly rely on experience and observation.

Ronan stopped and walked along the way. He had a total of seventy-six magic stone grains in "change" on his body. He didn't dare to enter any of the more impressive shops. He only dared to stand at the door and look in.

"Oh no, I need five magic stone grains for a few kilograms of flour. Why don't you grab it?!"

Ronan walked out of a bakery cursing. He was tired of eating cereals and wanted to change his taste, but he didn't expect that what he was eating now was the lowest-priced food in the entire gathering place.

"Forget it, let's just use meat as our staple food in the future. Vegetables are readily available in the forest anyway."

Ronan felt a little depressed and pinned the flour bag to his waist.

He really felt like he couldn't afford to live in the wizarding land where prices were soaring.

The main reason is that the wizards are not engaged in production, and the food sold by the wizards is basically shipped from the secular kingdom.

The food itself is not valuable, but the transportation cost is very expensive.

Ronan was so distressed that his liver trembled after spending another magic stone grain, and he only bought some necessary seasonings for cooking.

So far, he has not had any means to earn magic stones.

The dozens of magic stone grains on him are really one less.

He originally thought that since the prices in the wizard land are high, the air-dried beast meat he brought should be worth some money.

Who knew that no one would look down on it at all.

The wizard land is not short of ordinary meat, but the meat of monsters with either wonderful meat or strange effects.

Ronan has not seen what monsters look like yet, so he has to go deep into the forest to have a chance to meet them.

Continuing forward along the street of shops, Ronan began to see wizard stalls set up on the spot.

Then there were more and more, and more and more people.

At the end, almost all the stalls he saw were various kinds of stalls, and there was no trace of shops at all.

"Fresh fire lizard blood, the forging and enchanting effects are all top-notch, and now a bottle only costs five low-grade magic stones!"

"Pseudo-zero-level intermediate attack magic tools! Double runes, 90% new, big sale!"

"Ghost Face Flower Seeds, Blue Song Grass Flower Hearts, all the potion materials you want are here!"

The streets were crowded with people, and the sounds of hawking and bargaining were endless. Some of the wizards who came and went were dressed in bright clothes, while others were in tattered robes, even patched, even worse than Ronan.

In this bustling scene, Ronan also became relaxed, unlike the tension and restraint he had in the shopping street before.

Although he didn't recognize most of the things on the stalls in front of him, and he couldn't understand most of the hawking sounds that came one after another, this did not prevent him from gradually integrating into it.
