Chapter 26: Nut Mercenary Group (Part 2)
[Do you read books during the Spring Festival? If you read, I will keep updating and post and say it]
Everyone became familiar with the time of a meal. The configuration of the Nut Mercenary Group was a bit strange. There were no assassins, and there were even special swordsmen who used Qin Yin’s thin sword. Except for the magician, everyone was wearing metal armor.
Among the eight people, two use heavy swords, four use eight-sided swords, one uses iron spear, and the other is a magician. Such a configuration is very bad for a low-level mercenary group. Even for a strong team like the Nut Mercenary Group, it is insufficient because no one is suitable for scouts.
Everyone's armor is not lightweight, so you can't let the magician explore the way forward, right?
Salin is not a talkative person, at least he can't compare with Aini. Aini had a lot of chatting with Franmine and others, so he could only talk about professional issues with the magician Walnut and pass the time. Shika doesn't know Qin Yin's words, and Nalis doesn't even know the common language. The mercenaries chatted with her for a few words and found this problem, and gave up helplessly.
"Master Salin, I will ask you presumptuously, who is your teacher?"
"Just call me Salin." Salin paused for a moment and sighed: "The teacher won't let me say his noun unless I become a great magician."
"Oh." Walnut didn't feel strange. It was very obvious that magicians had such rules when accepting inheritance. If they could not reach a certain level, the teacher would not admit that there was such a formal student. This is a common way to inspire students to make progress. Walnut said disregardly: "Sarin, why didn't I see you using a magic wand?"
Salin was a little embarrassed. He had the magic wand, but he threw it away. After leaving the chaotic swamp, he lost one of his hands, so he didn't need the magic wand.
The function of the magic wand is to increase the magic and save a little mental power. The Salin Society has not many magic wands, and each one can be used to the extreme, so the requirements for the magic wand are not high, and his mental power is too much higher than that of the mages of the same level, so he did not want to buy another one from Aini.
"I haven't found a handy magic wand yet, by the way, Walnut, who is your teacher?"
Salin is not familiar with the magician genealogy. Jason has many books, but he doesn't introduce this content.
"I don't have a teacher." Walnut was a little sad.
"You are amazing. If I had no teacher, I would still be nothing." Salin comforted Walnut. For a magician, it is almost impossible to become a great magician without anyone's guidance. This walnut has a very good talent. If there is a teacher, he might be like Jason, who would become a great magician before he was thirty years old.
"I'm too poor to afford a teacher." Walnut glanced at the white crystal ring on Salin's hand, feeling complicated. He mistakenly thought that Salin was a child of a wealthy family, so he could afford a magic teacher. Looking at his ring, it was estimated that it was worth tens of thousands of gold coins.
"How much does it cost to hire a teacher?" Salin was puzzled. Jason had never mentioned the charge of money to him, and he had to spend money to subsidize him.
"A student who is just a registered student will need 100,000 gold coins a year."
"So much!" Salin was startled. He was very sensitive to gold coins. He was afraid that even the ancient Viscount of Ceylon City could not be able to get it? This is only a year's fee! And this is a registered student. Salin didn't know the price of hiring a teacher, but he understood what it means to register students.
Before Jason officially recognized him, his treatment was the same as a registered student. Jason did not give any guidance, but just asked him to learn by himself. It was not until Jason recognized him that he had the opportunity to participate in magic experiments once a week, and he would teach some unique experiences in daily life, and he could ask questions that he could not understand in the book.
The difference between these is too big.
Seeing Salin surprised, Walnut was also a little confused. Could it be that his teacher taught him magic knowledge for free? When he thought of this, Walnut showed a jealous expression.
This expression is not obvious. If Salin had not been sensitive since childhood, he would not have discovered it at all.
Enni never had such an expression, and Saling suddenly felt a little alienated to the walnut. Jealousy is a poison for the magician. Although this walnut is talented, its mind is not firm enough. It is probably because of this that it has never been taken by the great magician. For many magicians, money is still a small matter.
My success has nothing to do with you.
This is a motto left by a very powerful magician. This magician was born into a civilian and advanced to level nine before the age of 40 without the guidance of a teacher.
Salin had the honor of reading the magic notes of this magician when he was a teenager, and admired the magician's personality extremely. He was born in a poor family, persevered, never blindly, and moved towards the path of magic, taking one step at a time. This is the life trajectory of the magic god.
Salin didn't see anything to show off in his notes, nor did he complain.
Although Salin became disgusted with walnuts and had to get along in the next three months, Salin did not show anything at all, but instead said enthusiastically: "If you have the chance in the future, I will introduce the teacher to you."
"Really?" Walnut was overjoyed. He and Salin were close to each other, not for this.
"Of course." Salin answered sincerely. He thought in his heart that there would be no chance in the future. When I went to Kushui County and practiced there with peace of mind. After becoming a great magician, the teacher probably had already broken through to level 6 and returned to the Qinyin Empire to build a magic tower.
For a magician, upgrading from level 6 to level 7 is the most important level in life. Once you pass, you will be a magician. If you can't pass it, you will have nothing to pursue in this life.
Because the lifespan of a magician will be greatly extended, even a level six mage can live for decades more than an ordinary person. Decades are too short for the vast magic world.
The teacher will definitely disappear from anyone, including yourself. Just wait slowly.
"Sarin, do you have any extra gems? Sell them to me."
Salin despises him. This is a typical example of insatiable greed. Walnut doesn’t look like a magician at all, but rather like Skochenya’s businessman. If Salin says that there is, walnut will definitely bargain with stern faces, or even on credit. Salin has seen too many such faces. Half of Ceylon City are like this.
"I still have some dark mica, which is difficult to price." Salin deliberately made a embarrassed expression, and Walnut really didn't continue to get entangled in the gem.
The performance of black mica is very poor, but this gem has a strange attribute. After being refined by a powerful alchemist, it can create a gem with a similar attribute to chlorite. If you spend money to ask an alchemist to refine it, the biggest possibility is that the black mica will completely turn into ashes and you will not get anything.
If it is not refined, the properties of black mica are relatively ordinary and have little value.
Many magicians broke all their money for the black mica, and in the end they were not extracted a piece of green mud. This kind of mage was also ridiculed as a treasure-loving mage.
Although Walnut is greedy, he dare not gamble. His father is just a gambler and was hacked to death at a very young age.
"Your ring is from White Crystal." Walnut changed his target. His eyes were quite fierce, and he read nothing wrong.
"Well, it was given by the teacher."
Walnut felt a fire burning in his heart. Salin's teacher actually gave the student a magic ring worth tens of thousands of gold coins. Why can't he meet such a teacher?
Life is so unfair. Rich people have whatever they want. A commoner who is born like himself can only suffer hard. Walnut thought of this, clenched his fists and couldn't speak for a while. Because his teeth were bitten together, he endured it extremely hard.
Salin picked up the water cup, blocked his sight, and drank a glass of repair water. He couldn't bear to see it anymore, and Salin even doubted whether it was a mistake for Aini to hire the Nut Mercenary Group.
"Master." There was still Shika between Neris and Salin. Her voice was neither loud nor small, and everyone could hear it, but they didn't know what she was talking about.
"What's the matter?" Salin put down the water cup.
"That magician has bad intentions to you." Nelise chuckled softly. From her expression, no one could tell what she was saying. She just felt that her voice was so nice, and it was directly sent to people's psychology, soft.
"Don't talk nonsense, shut up." Salin was worried that Walnut would understand Gumeiers, after all, Walnut was also a magician.
"I'm worried about the safety of my master." Nelise smiled with her mouth covering her mouth, as if she was whispering to Li Chu.
Only then did Walnut feel his heart shaking. It was not that he didn't see Neris's beauty, but his desire for magic made him concentrate all his energy on Salin.
"Salin, who is this lady?" Walnut did not get any benefits from Salin for the time being, so he changed his target.
Franmingo coughed in dissatisfaction. If it weren't for the magician, he would have kicked out the walnut long ago. This man was too greedy. However, although the number of magicians in the Qinyin Empire was large, not many were willing to join a small mercenary group. Walnuts had a good ability, because they were low in level and they didn't have to pay too much to keep them, so Franmingo kept enduring.
Now Walnut suddenly lost the calmness of the magician. Looking at the woman's eyes were wrong, Franmine was naturally angry. A mercenary group, the most important thing is credibility. Even if you are a magician, you should not be flirting with the employer.
Walnut suddenly had an evil fire in his heart, and he couldn't hear Franmine's anger and looked at Neris with his eyes.
Salin thought to herself, if you had seen her body, I wonder if this would happen? Thinking in her heart, Salin said, "This is Neris, who has been with my family for generations."
Enni looked over in surprise. He always thought that Neris was Salin's protector, but he didn't expect that he was a maid. He knew that Salin could not be kidding, because Neris was a powerful man who could use space equipment!
It turns out that Salin was also from a big family, and there must be a strong force behind him. Fortunately, he did not have evil thoughts, otherwise the trouble would be great. Sometimes, if you offend a family, it is even more serious than offending the Holy See.
