Chapter 14: Sanders Cabin and News (Seeking for further reading)
Richard stepped into the house and saw many shiny reagents of different colors neatly and orderly placed in the closet behind the counter.
A young brown-haired girl, also wearing a gray robe, was reading a book intently.
As soon as someone came in, the brown-haired girl stood up quickly and said, "Hello, welcome to Sanders' cabin. Our store has a full range of potions. You are welcome to buy." "Is there any potion that can be used for self-defense? The best price
is It’s less than 15 magic stones, and I can’t afford it if it’s too expensive.” Richard said straight to the point.
Although the price may be a little more expensive when buying goods in this kind of regular store, the best thing is that there will be no mistakes.
The brown-haired girl chuckled and said sheepishly: "I'm sorry, the school rarely sees wizard apprentices as candid as you." The
brown-haired girl glanced at a white bone rod on Richard's gray wizard robe on his chest. Mark, said: "I guess you must be a new student who has just arrived. So if you use it for self-defense, it must be mainly used to avoid monsters or wild beasts during missions, right?" Richard nodded, and he found that
brown The girl's observation and judgment are very good.
Seeing Richard nodding in confirmation, the brown-haired girl turned around and took out a bottle of shining silver reagent from the cupboard and showed it to Richard.
At the same time, he introduced: "This blinding potion is good. After breaking into pieces, a bright light will flash out, which will temporarily blind the monsters accustomed to darkness in the swamp. This is enough to buy you time to escape. It sells for 12 magic stones. .
There is also this stink potion, which is made from the excrement of the swamp dragon. It can drive away most beasts and monsters in a short time. It just
smells a little unpleasant, but the effect is very good. It sells for 10 magic stones. "The brown-haired girl pointed to a place on the shelf again and said.
Hey, can feces be sold for 10 magic stones? This swamp flying dragon is probably full of treasures!
"In addition, the Swiftness Potion is also very easy to use. After drinking it, it will quickly stimulate the muscles of the thighs and calves. The explosive power will increase a lot in a short period of time, about 40 to 50%. It lasts about half an hour. The price is It only requires 5 magic stones.
If you are very agile, the Swiftness Potion is a good choice.
The only uncomfortable thing is that after taking the Swiftness Potion, there will be side effects that last for three days, and your lower body will be sore by then. Incomparable." The girl glanced at Richard's thin figure and said.
Obviously, if she was a potbellied or old and frail wizard apprentice, she would not recommend this potion of swiftness.
After thinking for a moment, Richard made a decision and said: "Then I'll take 1 bottle of stench potion and 1 bottle of swiftness potion. By the way, can you buy it in gold dinars in your store? If not, I can exchange it first. Come back and buy it again."
"You can buy it directly, but you need to convert it according to the ratio of 1:13, which means you need to pay a total of 195 gold dinars, but I can help you erase the change. I hope you will come to visit more next time. Is this our store okay?" the brown-haired girl said cheerfully.
Richard made some calculations in his mind. Even if he went to exchange it outside, it would be 1 to 12 at most, and it would waste a lot of time. Besides, the girl still had to wipe the zeros, so she agreed even if she agreed.
Richard, who returned to his dormitory again, took an early rest after performing the breathing method.
As soon as the day broke, Richard began to check the knight's sword, leather armor, gray wood short bow, black feather arrows, two bottles of potions and other items that he needed to carry one by one.
Afterwards, he went out and walked to the mission area of the school. He planned to go to the mission area early to get familiar with the environment.
When Richard walked into the mission area, what caught his eye was an empty vaulted hall.
There is an extremely eye-catching, tall black stone wall in the center of the hall, which should be fixed with some kind of magic circle. On the black stone wall, task details were scrolling, and the effect was similar to the three-dimensional image that Richard saw in his previous life.
For example, in the task [Clean up scavenger wolves], in addition to the task details, there is also a 3D model of the scavenger wolf, which rotates next to the text description of this task, which is lifelike.
The tasks are divided into different types and are marked on the stone wall.
At a glance, Richard saw marks for different task categories such as patrol tasks, collection tasks, cleanup tasks, wanted tasks, and dispatch tasks.
After each task, there are also notes and suggestions. For example, it is recommended for a second-level wizard apprentice to take this task, or it is recommended for three or more people to take this task, etc.
Directly in front of the black stone wall is a row of service counters. There are many senior apprentices who are responsible for counting loot, sending and receiving tasks, and consulting.
For ordinary first-level wizard apprentices, since they master very few witchcraft, they mainly take on patrol or collection tasks near the school.
But even for tasks near the school's residence, because there are many low-level monsters in the swamp itself, first-level wizard apprentices can often only form a team to take on these tasks.
Three to five people are the standard number for a regular team, and the upper limit of five people comes from the school's regulations.
As time went by, more and more students came and went in the mission area. Some were waiting for someone, while others were consulting or accepting missions at the counter.
At this time, Richard, who was wandering around, heard two people chatting softly next to him, and a few words they mentioned inadvertently interested him.
So, Richard pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
"Did you see that Vijay can skillfully use the zero-level witchcraft of Shadow Grip in battle?" A short silver-haired female student carrying a big bow asked suspiciously to the blond girl next to him. .
There is a large bow almost as tall as a person behind it, which is quite eye-catching!
"Really, I saw Vijay perform this witchcraft with my own eyes. A big shadow hand appeared out of thin air. It grabbed two scavenger wolves and crushed them into a ball of flesh and blood. It was so powerful!" The blond girl looks quite sweet, with a small mole on the corner of her mouth, and she is saying with an envious expression.
"The Weija you are talking about is the second-ranked one among our students, right? No wonder he can learn the Grasp of Shadow. By the way, I heard that he will be promoted to the second level soon, right?" the silver-haired girl continued to ask.
"Yes, his mental power has long exceeded the promotion requirements. I heard that his proficiency in the Grasp of Shadow is slightly lower, because promotion to the second-level apprentice requires mastering two zero-level attack witchcraft, and both must be practiced to proficiency. Level.
But judging from his appearance, this month should be about the same." The blonde girl said with certainty.
"It's really amazing. It's only been one year and two months, and I'm about to be promoted to a second-level apprentice. I'm the pride of heaven! How different is it for
me. If I can be promoted within three years, I will thank God for his blessing!" The silver-haired girl couldn't help but say. Showing admiration.
"Actually, he could have been faster, but he chose the Grasp of Shadow, one of the most difficult zero-level witchcrafts to practice, until now. Otherwise, he should have been promoted two months ago!" The blond the girl added.
"Shadow Grasp, one of the most difficult zero-level witchcrafts to practice." Richard seemed to understand after hearing this.
When Richard walked to the agreed place again, there was a tall young man holding a sword and shield, facing the beautiful woman. Luo was talking about something, and looking at her expression, she seemed quite excited.
Out of curiosity, Richard came closer and immediately knew the reason.
"Mei Luo, you just asked a newcomer to come here, but you actually promised him the treatment of a formal team member. I will not agree to this!
Even if he is really a good crossbowman as you said, At most, he can only share half of the rewards of his regular team members!" The tall boy seemed to reject Mei Luo's proposal.
