Well, Dian Niang is so arrogant that she only managed to get to the backstage now...
There should be another one in the evening, but it might still be very late. (Go to ‘’ if you want to read text novels)
——
"Three years as an apprentice and two years of service? I'll give it a try. Isn't it possible that there will be three periods and two years of life in the future?"
"Edward, what are you talking about...what a strange tone...three days and two birthdays? Let me choke..."
"Forget it, that's not important... The key is what are these guys thinking? The purchase of magic materials, well, I'm afraid most apprentices will spend money to do it, but in the end these apprentices who spend money will not learn anything.
What is it?"
"Well, the thoughts of mages are always elusive; in short, for mages, those with insufficient abilities are not qualified to join their ranks." The little girl blinked and smiled: "That's probably what they call pride.
Well... Actually, most apprentices who pay fees to enter the academy will have a hard time getting recognized as a formal mage within three years. They can only get the qualification of a trainee mage, and their spellcasting ability is limited to around the second level, at most.
That is to say, you can become a military mage, detect the enemy's situation, or follow the brigade to cast cluster fireballs. Or you can serve as the operator of a magic circle in a larger city, a crystal ball or something, or send a magic letter or something.
"
"...What about the ratio? How many people will be stuck in this section?"
"Oh, speaking of the number of people being eliminated, it's quite high. It accounts for more than 10% of all apprentices every year. I remember hearing my father say that in the past four years, the academy has enrolled a total of 100,000 gold coin apprentices.
The number of people is two hundred and thirty-three, but as of last year, there were only a dozen... thirteen people who could stay in the Mage Tower to continue their studies. And it seems that the number remains almost every year, not much different.
"
After tilting her head and thinking for a while, the little girl gave another answer that made Edward feel cold: "However, if you just want to find a good job, you still have a good chance, because even if these eliminated students
You can't learn anything, but as long as you have the ability to touch the second-ring magic network, you can also get the title of knight, and it is easy to find a well-paying job under various lords. Therefore, many people enter the academy just to study in the academy.
It is easier to get a position with the experience of learning, otherwise even if you have some spellcasting ability, most lords will not recognize you."
"...The rest can just move around in the academy?" After thinking about it, Edward asked again with his last hope. (Read the text novel and go to "")
The answer to this question is, as expected, frustrating: "Not so much, because there will be another diversion in the future. Only those who have obtained the title of high-level mage are qualified to have a place in the academy, but they can
Mages who are exposed to third- and fourth-level magic have no worries about life. Almost all of them can get a territory in Xifengyi and have a title of at least baron. Therefore, there are also many mages who can gradually accumulate and become high-level mages after that.
The mage’s.”
"The institutions of higher learning are indeed his model..."
Turning his gaze back to the distant sky, Edward couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart at the magical sight.
I have faced similar experiences in my previous life, but those guys who went to school just to get a job spent their entire lives wandering around, and most of them became members of the higher-class common people - Edward didn't think so.
There is nothing wrong with this, but after experiencing it, he no longer wants to be so confused. Especially in this troubled world where the hierarchy is stricter and the living conditions at the bottom are more difficult. Such a life can only lead to more pain and helplessness.
...And he still has countless dreams that he wants to realize.
If it had been a few days ago, this hopeless news would have depressed him for a long time... Even now, after all, it is still quite a headache.
Although he no longer has to concentrate on magic, the most critical issue for him now is the amount of knowledge he has access to - he originally thought that by becoming an apprentice, he would have the opportunity to come into contact with the more secretive things.
, information on spiritual energy... But now it seems that he still underestimated the xenophobia of the mages. In those YY movie stories in my memory, the scenes that generously allowed every student to share resources are really based on knowledge as the source of power.
Mages, as a class in reality, will never really appear. (. Updated super fast)
So, do you still want to use these thousands of gold coins to exchange for this opportunity?
"I mean, Edward, you've been wandering around for so long. When can you find a place to settle down? My stomach is starting to growl. Do you want to sleep on the streets?"
Baroque? On the tip of the tongue? Ye Yu interrupted the hunter's thinking with a loud yawn - obviously, for dwarves, magic schools or success rates are far less attractive than eating and sleeping. In reality,
If Lisa hadn't mixed a few bottles of good wine for him from the caravan before, he might not have been able to keep up with a few people for so long. (Just read the text novel'')
"You want to eat and sleep at the same time? The sun hasn't set yet... You are not only a wine barrel, but also a rice barrel and a sleeping pig. I really want to know what you were like before you followed Edward." The little girl wrinkled her nose and whispered slander.
, but after laughing and scolding, she suddenly clapped her hands: "By the way, speaking of the Magic Academy... there is another place I have always wanted to go to. It just so happens that it would be perfect if you two are here."
Edward frowned.
In fact, he has no interest in wandering anymore - there is nothing wrong with the dwarf's suggestion. They are all people who may have trouble at any time. The first problem is naturally to ensure a place to stay and their own safety. And this half-man
Miss Elf's identity seems to be quite sensitive, and she might bring some unexpected troubles at some point.
But it doesn't seem like a good time to separate from her now - after all, compared to Edward, a country bumpkin, this lady and his men are still half locals, and a lot of information must be obtained from the other party, especially those related to
Things about the magic academy...
Fortunately, what happened next was somewhat related to Edward's interests.
After hurriedly walking through five or six streets, the surrounding environment gradually underwent some subtle changes.
The phantom of the huge castle became closer, and the street became wider, but the shop fronts on both sides began to become simple, while the thin black and white smoke from the rows of tall chimneys gradually took up the height.
The view from everywhere made the illusion even more hazy. The hum of conversation, the creaking of ropes, and the noise caused by the pedestrian footsteps did not diminish at all, but the sharp and melancholy tinkling sounds mixed in among them made them become confused.
It softens and permeates the surroundings. The aroma of food and perfume is also mixed with the smell of sweat, smoke and fire...
The reflection of metal replaced the various signboards and stalls - a pair of well-equipped armors acted as waiters standing at the door, and in the wide-open store door, the dark red firelight reflected the rows of wooden shelves.
, scimitars, long swords, half-hand swords, rapiers and large axes... all kinds of sharp edges are enough to attract all wandering eyes.
Oh, I should say, most of them. (If you want to read text novels, go to ‘’)
"It still smells like that, but this thing, tsk tsk, is really a waste of garbage! These guys are just wasting ore and firepower." The dwarf stepped into this alley less than a mile long.
He started to show some interest, shaking his big head and looking around, but loud complaints soon followed... Of course, in his opinion, he lowered his voice, but his naturally loud voice still attracted people's attention.
Countless looks came, most of them displeased or even angry, from the poor clerks and bosses.
After all, many customers in the store who were preparing to make a transaction began to hesitate because of the harsh comments, and some people simply gave up on the transaction.
But even though he had reviewed the shops in half the street like this, no one came out to argue with him. There were even a few people who were already following them, seeming to be hesitant about whether to come forward and talk to him - and their appearance.
On the contrary, the dwarves are also natural craftsmen who are very good at casting exquisite weapons, armor and accessories, and there are many famous blacksmiths among them. It is said that in many human cities, merchants often claim to be "
"Dwarf products" to raise prices.
Of course, compared to the dwarf's displeasure, Edward still showed some interest in the products here.
In order to ensure flexible movements and avoid magic interference, mages cannot use any armor, but as a psion, Edward has no such concerns, and as a hunter, he knows better the benefits of an extra armor - this is not just a piece of armor.
Regarding the issue of protection, as long as the opponent's attack cannot break through the armor defense, he can fight with confidence, and his 100% combat effectiveness can produce 120% or even 150% of the effect.
In addition, he also hopes to find a bow that fits his hand. After all, although he uses spiritual energy to make up for mid-range attacks, he lacks the ability to attack farther targets, and many times, sniping
This fighting method is indeed the simplest and most effective way to kill the enemy and save yourself.
Unfortunately, after walking through several stores, Edward was also a little disappointed. Although the weapons here were of various shapes and quantities, not many were practical.
All the products have one thing in common, and that is luxury - I wonder if it is because it is adjacent to the Magic Academy. Most of the items here are of enchantment standards. As long as the enchantment is exquisite, even a piece of wrought iron armor will have the same hardness.
More than fine steel; therefore, in order to attract attention and sell for a few cents more, the shape of the finished product becomes gaudy.
The decorations are gorgeous and the carvings are exquisite, which inevitably makes decoration more important than practicality. (Just read the novel) And this kind of thing that relies on magic to achieve things also means that the price is ridiculously high, and most of them are overpriced.
It is low in price, more than beautiful, but not practical enough. Of course, there are many high-quality products among them, but the chainmail shirt with the price tag of tens of thousands of gold coins, the longbow of hundreds of thousands of gold coins, etc. are simply not something that a poor person like Edward can afford.
Something affordable.
As for Lisa... well, this little girl obviously has no interest in armor or weapons. She didn't even ask about the price. She seemed to be just watching the fun from beginning to end.
This situation continued like this until the end of the street.
Edward's steps paused.
The small house in the field of vision is simply furnished, with no decorations or ornaments, and only two rows of scattered shelves outside. The eyes of most people on the street are easily attracted by the dazzling array of swords on both sides.
, ignoring its existence...but the little girl who noticed his gaze couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
"It's really amazing... Edward, how did you notice it?" She turned to Melianne beside her, and the latter's affirmation made her even more excited: "This is one of the best magic weapon shops in Romandy.
, opened by a real master, but except for regular customers, it does not accept ordinary people. It is said that if you don’t bring a certificate, ordinary people will not be able to find it.”
"Well, it's just a mercenary's intuition." The hunter responded calmly.
——In fact, it would be really strange if you didn’t notice it——or some illusions can stagger the vision of ordinary people, but in Edward’s eyes, guided by several wonderful symbols etched on the ground, the entire exterior wall of this shop
They are all emitting a faint red light, which is eye-catching.
"But you said this is a magic weapon shop?" he asked. In his memory, those things were always planned near the main roads of the city, not only because of financial resources, but also to avoid wasting more guard power.
After all, it is a richer place than a jewelry store, and even far richer than a bank that has not yet appeared in this world.
However, just like what happened in Lissouri City, Edward actually didn't like this kind of place.
In this world, the development of living things is taking a different path. Magic, this power is destined to become an important part of their lives. Therefore, in more developed areas, magic items are not something that is out of reach.
Children, lights, fans and other things that originally required technology have been replaced by magic.
The open attitude towards force has also made magic equipment not a rare thing... There are always some real and fake things in the weapons shop. Even a newbie who has just started in the industry will at least find a way to get one or two.
To fill up the appearance, if you want to find something that can save your life in adventure or fierce battle, then don't go to any store - although the things there are somewhat guaranteed in terms of transactions, they are not
Most of them are flashy rags, and even if there are one or two pieces that make people look at them, the price will make you want to kill a few people - those merchants, and maybe yourself.
So as far as Edward knows, there are only two and a half feasible routes to purchase suitable equipment - either go to the Magic Tower to negotiate with the mages in person, or you have to use some gray power to trade on the black market in those urban legends.
...This is also the experience of an old mercenary.
Of course, the remaining half is a treasure hunt in the hands of those small vendors... But actually this is not a very good idea, although there is at least a third or fourth chance that you will buy it at some unexpected price.
You can get good stuff, but there is a high chance that you will get into some trouble - for example, the original owners of the stolen goods may come to visit you, or you may be involved in a case committed by the previous owner.
"In those so-called magic shops, it's okay to buy some ordinary materials, but good things in the finished products are a bit rare. It's okay to coax a novice who comes to such a place for the first time... You need to buy some magic equipment.
This is the best place.”
Compared to the hunter, the little girl didn't have so many worries. She walked over happily, took out a black sign and shook it, so the two rows of weapon racks in front of the shop quietly opened up at an angle to allow people to pass.
Passing through that layer of vague red light, Edward found that he seemed to have entered another world.
The hustle and bustle in the streets seemed to have disappeared in an instant, and only the subtle rustling of a few people's footsteps on the carpet was left in his ears. However, the big red in his eyes forced him to close his eyes and adjust.
After a moment of effort, I could see clearly the whole picture of this small room - there were no extra decorations, it seemed to be just a room full of shelves, but inside the large and small shelves.
Each item is undoubtedly a treasure of great value.
As his eyes passed over those dull or bright objects, even Edward felt some changes in his heartbeat.
Then, when a voice sounded quietly, the hunter's heartbeat became more... abnormal.
"Welcome...ah, is it a new face? Please feel free to take a look, but we don't accept cash here, we can only exchange materials." A woman's voice sounded in the deepest part of the store, delicate and soft.
, the turning tone always seems to interpret the meaning of the word soft.
As for the existence that made the sound, it was no surprise that it was completely consistent with it - + the figure leaning on a low table against the wall seemed to have just stood up in reaction - but just because of this action, all eyes were turned away.
They were all attracted to her.
The clothes that look like robes are cut close to the body, but they have the characteristics of a long dress, especially the long V-shaped collar, which just right exposes a large area of white greasy in front of everyone... Or maybe we should thank the knowledge of this world
The God of God has not yet brought something like a bra to the world, so the pair of huge rabbits are bouncing up and down along with her curls, which is almost the best expression of the word "eager to come out"...
The dwarf even whistled frivolously for a long time - oh, maybe someone remembers this great dwarf's lifelong dream. But at this moment, he may not be able to remember any dreams, and probably even his own name has been thrown out of the sky.
Alright.
His breathing became twice as heavy in an instant, and the two eyes that were originally hidden in his beard and hair became proportional to that big face.
Uproar? Shameful or tolerant?
Wonderful and strange thoughts passed through his mind, and Edward's eyes couldn't help but stop for a moment on the two white rabbits jumping slightly. However, the terrible pain in his arms quickly pulled the hunter's eyes aside. "Edward,
You...what are you looking at?" Holding one of Edward's hands, the little half-elf growled fiercely and vaguely.
Her teeth are extremely well maintained, neat and beautiful, and sparkling white. They are very suitable for endorsement of products such as toothpaste, but it is not pleasant to experience from another aspect... Even if a spirit emerges from under the murder weapon
After breaking free, Edward still discovered that there were almost bones underneath the deep tooth marks that were stained with blood!
As expected, this fuss led to a few squeaky smiles.
