(I am getting more and more into the New Year atmosphere. I am also busy purchasing new clothes, candies, cookies, gifts, etc. I spent the afternoon shopping with my wife today. My toes are a little sore.)
Seeing Chen Shihao's expression, the coachman stopped paying attention and followed suit: "Yes. 100 gold pounds. It is enough to keep a thousand households of tenant farmers from working for five years. The college is really very profitable. If only a small one could have one There are two unique skills that can be taught. The little one is going to show off." He said with a longing expression.
"Haha. If you knew such a valuable skill, you wouldn't have to drive a car. By the way, let's talk about martial arts. Let's talk about spell casters." Although Chen Shihao was once again surprised by the value of the gold pound, he still changed the subject inadvertently.
The coachman smiled sheepishly before continuing: "Spell casters are generally divided into magicians and divine magicians. That is, magicians and priests. Magicians master spells by themselves. Priests have magic given by God. They are completely two types. One cultivates on his own and the other relies on God’s gift. There is absolutely no comparison between them.”
Chen Shihao thought that the healing skills of the Temple of Light could only be obtained by believing in the God of Light. He immediately understood the difference between the two types of spell casters.
"Regardless of spells or divine spells, they are divided according to the type of elements: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, ice, light, darkness, thunder, auxiliary and other spell casters. Theoretically, magicians can learn any magic But it depends on physical fitness and qualifications. Generally, the spells mastered by level 0 magic apprentices are auxiliary and non-attack spells. It is said that the spells these magicians master every day are limited. Unlike samurai, they only need physical strength. As long as they exist, they can keep fighting. When the amount of spells they memorize is used up or the mana is consumed, they become weak and have to be restored through meditation. The priest only has a mana limit, but no limit on the number of casts."
"And if you want to have offensive spells, you have to become a first-level mage. But as I said before, the first to fourth levels are magic apprentices. They are worthless. If you want to live well, you have to become a fifth-level magician or above. And when you reach the seventh level, Level 1 or above is a great mage. Level 9 or above is a mage. Level 11 or above is a great mage. Level 15 or above is an archmage, level 20 is a star mage, level 25 is a mage saint, and level 30 is a mage god. .Spell casters in all magic departments are divided in this way. Those in the divine magic department are divided according to their duties in the Holy See. I don’t understand. I can’t explain it to adults.” The coachman finished the professional introduction.
Chen Shihao listened with great interest. He almost recited the professional information to these coachmen. Chen Shihao didn't pay attention at all. Such coachmen must be NPCs who specialize in introducing information. The coachman who solicited passengers last time should be on a hidden mission. But this game does It's so wonderful. People don't even notice that they are in the game. The progress of the game depends entirely on the player's footsteps.
When I was thinking wildly, the carriage stopped. The coachman turned around and said, "Sir, the royal city has arrived. Carriages from out-of-town carriage shops like ours cannot enter the royal city. I can only trouble you, sir, to enter the city on your own."
"Oh." Chen Shihao poked his head out and saw an endless stone wall standing in front of him. The royal flag was flying high on the wall. A group of leather soldiers equipped with long guns were patrolling on top of the wall. At the end of the road. It was a city gate with an open door and a drawbridge lowered. There were several people who looked like tax collectors, each leading two swordsmen. They were calculating tax bills for the car caravans outside the gate that were preparing to enter the city.
A trace of disappointment flashed in Chen Shihao's eyes, because this royal city felt to him like the ancient county town in his hometown. It was just a little bigger and had more walls than West City. In fact, it was still pitifully small. This could also be regarded as a royal city. Well. But consider that this game is set in a joint-stock country. The king is just a chairman with a large number of shares. It is impossible to use all the income of shareholders for his own use. So let go of that disappointment.
Since I had just been rewarded 1 shilling, the fare had already been handed over to the coachman. Chen Shihao, who had settled with the coachman, said hello. He got off the carriage wearing leather armor and an iron sword on his waist, and followed the people walking into the city. People walk towards the city gate.
Looking at the side where pedestrians only pass, everyone obediently put down a zero in a box. Then they handed over various identification documents to the guards. After finally confirming that there were no problems, they were allowed to enter. Chen Shihao couldn't help but sigh that this game could actually be played. There is a strict household registration system. But why don't you care about the weapons carried by pedestrians? Well, probably because of the magic and fighting spirit, weapons have become the least harmful thing in violent incidents, so I don't care at all.
Chen Shihao wanted to know if his status as a retinue was considered a privileged class. So he did not pay the money first. Instead, he took out his identity certificate first. The only drawback to this game is that he has no personal information. He has no idea what his status is. of.
The guard looked at the certificate with shimmering words. He didn't look surprised. He handed it back and waved his hand for Chen Shihao to pass. Chen Shihao was a little happy. There are advantages to being in the lowest privileged class. You don't have to pay city fees. Already.
Entering the Royal City, Chen Shihao had nothing to admire. There were more buildings and crowds than in West City. The streets were larger than those in West City. Other than that, the messiness was exactly the same. Even worse. How could Chen Shihao, who came from a clean city, be wandering on the streets?
It was still his old habit. He rented a carriage and went straight to the best knight academy in the royal city. On the way here, Chen Shihao thought clearly about what he wanted to learn. Magicians are very powerful and majestic. But can what they learn be used in reality? It is probably very difficult. Xuan. As for the samurai, of course it is a good choice. The fighting skills learned here can definitely be used when you go back. However, the promotion level of the samurai is knight. And in this world, in addition to the popular rumor: "Nobles are not necessarily magicians. But magicians He must be a noble." There is also a corresponding sentence: "A knight is not necessarily a noble. But a noble must be a knight."
Chen Shihao is not particularly pursuing becoming a noble. But since he wants to play this game well and learn more skills in this game, then the best way is to become a powerful person in this game. Power, money, and strength are indispensable.
The familiar carriage took Chen Shihao to a shop on the side street near the main road of the palace. When he saw this shop, Chen Shihao was a little dumbfounded. This shop is a college. There can be no mistake.
"Are you sure this is the Wind Knight Academy?" Chen Shihao asked the coachman stupidly.
"Hey, young master, this is the Wind Knight Academy. Oh, this is the registration office. The place of study is outside the city." The coachman was stunned for a moment and then said with a sudden smile.
"Registration Office." Chen Shihao tilted his head and looked at the shop sign. Unfortunately, he didn't recognize the words on it. Then he looked at the samurai and people dressed as knights coming in and out. Chen Shihao stepped in with some hesitation.
Entering this store, Chen Shihao couldn't help but blink, because it was really like a store. There was a row of counters right after entering the door. A dozen waiters dressed as waiters stood behind the counter, each enthusiastically introducing something to the warrior in front of the counter. Although There is a large row of words behind these guys. It is probably to introduce the skills they can teach. Unfortunately, Chen Shihao doesn't understand it. At this moment, Chen Shihao swore in his heart that he must learn the words of this world. Otherwise, he will become illiterate. blind.
At the same time, Chen Shihao also had some doubts in his heart. If this is a game, then it must have been designed by someone. But how could the person who designed it recreate a kind of text? Judging from the structure and layout of these words, it is obviously The writing is very old. It is impossible to create so many standard writings by imagination. Because writing is the representative of civilization.
But I put aside the things I don’t understand for the time being. At the same time, I also subconsciously forced myself to think that this is Chen Shihao in the game world. Naturally, I got rid of the problem. If I don’t know these words, I just need to learn them. Why do I pursue so many questions?
Entering the store, there was obviously a shopping guide inside. A clerk came over quickly and said with a bright smile: "Hello, customer. How can I help you?"
"I want to learn skills." Chen Shihao, who was suddenly in a bad mood, said dryly.
"Our Wind Knight Academy has a complete set of skills from the lowest level to the highest level 9 bronze knight. It is the top one among the many academies in Jinlan Kingdom that openly teach knight skills. I don't know what skills you want to learn." The clerk asked with a smile.
"I don't know what skills I can learn." Chen Shihao frowned a little. Although he knew that the skills of a level 9 knight were absolutely superb, could he learn them himself?
"Haha. It doesn't matter. I don't know what your level is. We can customize the most suitable training plan for you." The guy said very familiarly because he had seen many such confused warriors.
"I'm just a first-level warrior." Chen Shihao said nonchalantly. He never cared about these false claims.
"First-level warrior..." The guy was stunned for a moment. You could see that his warm expression quickly cooled down.
"Why? I'm afraid I don't have the money to reward you." Chen Shihao naturally knew how to solve the problem. He just threw a shilling over.
As soon as he received the big silver coin, the clerk's face suddenly showed a flattering smile that only met the God of Wealth. He nodded and said, "Guest, although you are first level, this is better. Our academy will select famous teachers for you. . Tailor-made courses for you. It is absolutely guaranteed to allow you to climb to level 9 Bronze Knight without any worries. You will learn all the skills from level 1 to level 9.”
When Chen Shihao heard this, he was naturally moved. But he still pretended not to care and said: "How much time does it take? What is the price?"
The clerk rubbed his hands and said, "Hey, my guest, your qualifications are definitely excellent, but I don't have the ability to judge the exact time. Even the professors in the college will probably have to wait for you to study for a period of time before they can give an evaluation." But ordinary elites only need 10 years to complete their studies, and the total tuition fee is only 10,000 gold pounds."
Chen Shihao almost bit his tongue out. Ten thousand gold pounds... robbery is not so scary. Of course, what he said with a shocked face was: "In 10 years... how could I have so much time to learn such a thing?" It’s a long time.”
The waiter narrowed his eyes. He had seen too many impatient customers like this. So he immediately said: "If you don't have enough time, you can..." However, Chen Shihao stopped him before he could say anything: "Wait a minute. Besides, do you have any level-up skills? It’s a skill that allows me to emit sword energy."
