The red vermilion fruit is called "Red Blood Fruit" and is a low-level material that can only be produced deep in the forest.
Its own value does not seem to be high to magicians, but it is especially loved by demonized creatures and monsters.
Every year, knights and attendants in the Underdark go into the forests and deep jungles in groups to look for this fruit.
It seems that because this fruit has a certain effect in strengthening Qi and blood, swallowing it raw can effectively speed up the cultivation speed of low-level knights and attendants.
This red blood fruit was finally photographed by Frank, the old man next to Thain, and he paid for it with two self-made blood-activating potions.
Strictly speaking, blood-activating potions are not considered magic potions.
The grade of this potion seems to be worse than the low-level recovery potion, and it only has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis for the injured.
What surprised Thane was that the blood-activating potion was actually developed by old man Frank himself and a group of ordinary pharmacists from Peter City.
This old man yearns for the profession of pharmacist. No wonder he was so excited when Thain took out the nutritional medicine.
After Old Man Frank reaches a deal with the intermediate apprentice, the transaction will continue smoothly.
Old man Frank and the others are old acquaintances and have a good relationship with each other, so bargaining rarely occurs.
Next, several trading items were placed in succession, most of which were various types of low-level magic materials.
The types and uses of these magic materials were also eye-opening to Thain.
For example, the female apprentice who wore a half-face mask with flaming red lips took out a rare thing called the "Screaming Branch".
This branch can have a certain early warning effect after being activated in a specific way.
Plug it outside the tent in the middle of the night. If any creature comes closer than 20 meters, its leaves will tremble violently and make an ear-piercing scream.
This "screaming branch" was ultimately rejected because most of the magic apprentices present lived in several nearby cities and had no need for this thing.
Although Thain was very interested in the Screaming Branch, he was not in a hurry to take action. The trade fair was not over yet anyway.
Thain was not in a hurry, but the group of apprentices around him were a little anxious.
To be honest, the reason why this trade fair was held in advance was because of the presence of Thain, an outsider.
Moreover, Thain's mysterious identity and senior apprentice strength have also led many people to believe that he must have something good in his hands.
But Thain's delay in taking action made the surrounding apprentices feel a little embarrassed.
"Does this senior apprentice look down upon this little thing in our hands?" Many apprentices thought to themselves.
Finally, another senior gray hat apprentice present laughed and said, "It seems that this new brother doesn't like these ordinary magic materials."
"There is no way, the area near us does not produce any special resources."
"On the contrary, it is said that there are magic crystal mines in the east, and the magic beast forest in the west is extremely rich in resources."
"Going to the deepest point in the south is the endless South Sea, which is said to be the wizarding world. There are many magician organizations along the coastline, and there are more than one holy tower."
This senior apprentice is not as old as Frank, and it seems that he has seen a bit of the world.
Facing this senior apprentice's talk, Thain, who had been silent for a long time at the trade fair, couldn't help but ask: "What about the north? What's on the north?"
Thain's family is just north of the Underdark, and according to the original intention of his mentor Moshe Duo, he has already left the boundary of the Underdark.
Thain's question made the gray hat apprentice speechless. He actually didn't know much.
In the end, he just replied: "The situation in the north is better than here. At least there are several magician organizations there, and there are formal magicians or above."
"Brother, are you planning to go to the north?" After the gray-robed apprentice finished speaking, he couldn't help but ask.
This time, Thain did not cover up, but nodded slowly.
The gray hat apprentice also seemed a little emotional at this time. He then said: "I plan to go to the south and stay here. I am afraid that it will be difficult to reach a higher level in my life."
"The situation in the south should be the best for us magicians. If we can be lucky enough to join the Holy Tower, that would be even better." The gray hat apprentice said hopefully.
The decision of the gray hat apprentices to go all the way south to the coast of the endless South China Sea of the Wizarding Continent should be revealed to these apprentice circles for the first time.
More than one apprentice showed excitement and curiosity at this time, including the female apprentice who called Thain "little brother" before, and she also came over to ask questions.
It seems that these apprentices are likely to form partners and go to the south to study together.
On the other hand, old man Frank beside Thain remained indifferent from beginning to end.
Although there was a bit of envy and fascination in his eyes, the old man did not get involved. Instead, he lowered his head and played with the red blood fruit he had just obtained.
"What? You don't plan to go to the south to see?" Thain and old man Frank had been in contact for a few days and became familiar with each other, so they asked.
"Haha, if I were twenty years younger, I would definitely go."
"But now..." Frank shook his head and said, "It's too late. I don't know how long I can live with my old bones."
"Instead of trying your luck in the south, it is better to stay here and do as much as possible for future generations of the family."
"Although my little Pia does not have the talent to become a magician, he has great potential in the path of knighthood." Frank rubbed the red blood fruit in his hand and said with a smile.
Going to the Endless South Sea is not an easy task. With Thane's strength and footwork, and being accompanied by Owl Seven, it would take him more than half a year at the fastest to reach the north of the Underdark.
The distance from here to the endless South China Sea is no shorter than the distance from Thane to the north.
And the coast of the Endless South China Sea is just a general term, the wizarding world is bigger than these apprentices imagined.
What is the situation in the south? How many magician organizations are there? How can we obtain resources and learn new knowledge?
Wait, wait, these are all issues that need to be considered.
Knowledge is priceless, who can guarantee that he will be able to join the magician organization and will he have enough money to pay for his studies?
And the journey from here to the Endless South China Sea is not smooth sailing either.
In addition to the troublesome monsters and bandits along the way, in the past many years, there have been rumors of black magicians appearing in the nearby area.
If one accidentally encounters a vicious black magician, his life may be sealed.
Even the most inconspicuous thief might have the strength to become an intermediate squire or even a high-level knight squire.
This level of robbers is extremely difficult for these magic apprentices to deal with.
Especially when someone is close to you, magic can sometimes not be as fast as a knife.
