With the mage level and spell slots, you can naturally start to move from theory to practice.
Since the magic theories of the two worlds are highly similar, some of the spell models differ by less than 5%, and some even have the same names and effects.
Therefore, Zuo Si, who has a solid theoretical foundation, learns very quickly.
In just a few hours, he used the Zero Ring Spell's [Increase Resistance], [Detect Poison], [Detect Magic], [Read Magic], [Stun], [Flash], and [Light].
, [Freeze Ray], [Lightning Tremor], [Sudden Shock], [Strike the Undead], [Mage's Hand], [Messaging], [Arrow Shooting], [Secret Mark], [Magic Trick], etc.
Wait for a series of spells to be mastered.
Although the proficiency is still very low, at least it can be released while maintaining concentration.
And despite the fact that these spells consume very little magic power and have almost no ability to cause serious injury or death, they are very practical.
The most typical ones are detection spells, as well as [Messaging], [Repair], and [Scribe], which can provide considerable convenience for daily life.
Especially after learning [Detect Poison], Zuo Si no longer needs to ask the summoned soldiers to test poison for him.
After releasing a magic, it will be clear whether there is poison in the food and water.
As for [Lightning Tremor], [Flash Technique], [Acid Splash], [Sudden Shock], [Freezing Ray], and [Stun Technique], although they cannot kill people, they can still make them uncomfortable and painful.
This will slow down the enemy's approach and attack speed, buying time for the next action.
[Arrow Shooting Technique] can even launch a crossbow arrow like a light crossbow, hitting a target at a maximum distance of no more than 24 meters.
After learning this magic, you only need to carry a bundle of crossbow bolts, and you can hide in the dark and launch cold arrows.
If you apply some highly toxic poison that can see blood and seal your throat, the effect will naturally be better.
"Not bad. It seems that this book "From Apprentice to Mage, Spells You Should Master" is really worth it. It actually contains so many zero-level spells."
Zuo Si put down the slightly heavy book in his hand, with a very happy expression on his face.
Although the value of the zero-ring trick itself is not high, and even the lowest level mage can master a few or even a dozen, it still makes people feel that the money is well spent.
Just when he was about to turn his attention to those more difficult and powerful first-level spells, his stomach suddenly made a growling sound.
I raised my head and looked out the window, and it turned out that the sky had already turned dark unconsciously.
Zuo Si, who is addicted to practicing magic, has not eaten anything for almost six or seven hours and only drank a little local distinctive mint tea.
"Master, it's time for us to have dinner." The soldier took the opportunity to remind.
"Okay, let's fill our stomachs first."
Zuo Si nodded and quickly stuffed the books on the table and the notes he had recorded into his satchel.
Due to the boldness and rampage of the halfling thieves in Calimport, he did not dare to leave these valuable things in the room.
Otherwise, when you come back, you will find that you have been visited by thieves, and you may not even have a place to cry.
After packing their things, the two quickly left the room and followed the creaking wooden stairs to the lobby on the first floor.
I don’t know when this place has become bustling with people.
A large number of sailors who had just stepped off the ship, as well as workers who had been busy for a day, gathered together in groups.
They drank cheap watered-down beer and ate a simple set meal of two copper coins each.
This so-called "set meal" is basically a plate of cold cuts that have been there for who knows how long but have not gone bad;
A bowl of chowder made with unshelled shrimp, seaweed and small clam meat;
Two of the cheapest and not very fresh herrings;
The final staple food was a piece of hard black bread that could almost be used as a brick.
If you don’t eat in the soup, your teeth will definitely be damaged.
Cheap beer that has been watered down costs an extra copper plate.
This is the most realistic portrayal of the lower class people in Calimport, except for the slums and slaves.
Although life is not a good one and I can’t save much, there is still no problem in filling my stomach.
Seeing Zuo Si walking down the stairs, the hotel owner immediately rushed out from the counter, bent down and bowed deeply.
"Good evening, Your Excellency Soth.
What do you plan to eat tonight?
We just got a batch of fresh oysters here.
Whether eaten raw with dipping sauce or fried with garlic, minced ginger and other spices, it is delicious.
In addition, today's special dishes are steamed mackerel and pepper mutton soup.
I guarantee that the mackerel was fished out of the sea in the afternoon, and the lamb was freshly killed at noon. It is absolutely clean and hygienic."
Obviously, the reason why he is so attentive is entirely because of the instructions from the leader of the Thieves Guild - Epke.
Although the hotel owner does not know the relationship between the two.
But from the attitude shown by Apke when we last had dinner together, he knew that no matter what the relationship between the two parties was, he would never offend him.
"Then some more grilled oysters, a big plate of steamed mackerel, a steaming pot of peppery lamb soup, and some soft, fresh white bread.
Remember to add more chopped green onions!
The bread must be soft enough!
Instead of alcohol, have some freshly squeezed coconut juice or lemon juice with honey.
In addition, prepare the same dinner to be delivered to the gentleman in the room next to me, and let the person who delivers the meal feed him.
Finally, bring enough fresh meat and fish to feed my pets."
After saying that, Zuo Si took out a gold coin and handed it to the other party, and then went straight to the window seat reserved for himself.
Seeing the golden light emitting from the coin in his hand and feeling the weight, which was heavier than any metal of the same volume, the innkeeper suddenly smiled.
He yelled at his employees at the top of his lungs to tell them to move more quickly.

Especially in the kitchen, even if you put down the work at hand first, you must definitely prepare and serve the food Zuo Si ordered within fifteen minutes.
As for those poor people who can only afford a cheap meal for two coppers a piece and a glass of watered beer for one copper, let them wait first.
After all, the hotel owner knows very well who should give priority to guests who only spend three or five copper coins on a meal, and guests who can spend one gold coin on a meal.
Soon, in the eyes of others full of surprise, envy and jealousy, several large plates of food exuding an alluring aroma were served.
Especially the oysters fried and grilled with garlic, minced ginger and spices will make those who have never tasted the taste of spices want to get excited.
Coupled with the fact that Zuo Si looks like a boy of about ten years old, some people even have the idea of going all out to grab a piece of him.
But it didn't take long before they were forced to regain their senses.
Because the soldier half pulled out the dagger with a cold light on his waist, and at the same time scanned the hall with his sharp eyes.
"Damn it! Which noble or wealthy merchant's young master is this? He even brought a bodyguard with him when he went out."
A middle-aged man with a beard and a sinewy face cursed in a low voice.
An ugly-looking man next to him rolled his eyes angrily and said sarcastically: "You want to do something?
Stop dreaming!
It is said that a few days ago, many people saw this boy walking into this hotel with Chief Aipke, and even had a meal.
I can guarantee that if you rob him.
Regardless of success or failure, the body will be hung on the wall to dry in a few hours."
"That's right! Be careful. You can make money but not spend it."
Another younger man also nodded in agreement.
It is common sense not to provoke the Thieves Guild when trying to make a living in Calimport.
Except for the dark elf ranger Drizzt Do'Urden, who successfully defeated a thieves guild with a few powerful partners, so far no other person has been able to provoke the thieves guild without incident.
of leaving.
A few months ago, a paladin of the God of Justice had a conflict with a thieves guild in order to save a child who was forced to become a slave because he could not pay off his debt.
As a result, just three days later, the body of the paladin was found in the sewer.
It can be seen from this that the Thieves Guild has become so powerful in this city that even the temple is helpless against them.
