Hill was surprised to see these children bringing in three to four thousand books intermittently.
When facing high-level professions, they adopted a very safe approach. When Hill was selecting, he did not see any duplicate books. Even if there were occasional duplicates, they were all books with eyebrow markings on them. They understood this very well.
Brought them all.
Hill first took out all the spell books.
What can be called a spell book is a special book in which only spells recognized by the rules can be written.
Most of the books here are duplicates of ordinary-level wizard books. Occasionally, there are a few partial spell books that have been eliminated.
Just like chain fireball, it is originally a spell that fires five fireballs in a row at the same time. This has been determined to be the most stable and cost-effective chain. However, some people think that six is better. Even if it takes one and a half times the mana, it is still worth it.
It should be proudly written into the spell book and spread widely.
Hill held a book with 6 fireballs in his hand.
He looked at it interestingly for a while. The books Frank gave him were all orthodox, and it was rare to see spell books with such strange thinking.
Seeing his interest, the male apprentice came over and said, "This is a unique trick of a mage in our city of Denton. I only sold it after leaving this time."
Hill raised his head and glanced at him: "This is not an orthodox spell, you know, right?"
The apprentices of the Mages Guild are not that stupid.
"Yes, but for some people who barely become mages, one more fireball makes a lot of difference.
Their mana simply cannot use 2 consecutive fireballs.
And even the fireball spell takes a long time to cast.
The mage has practiced this 6 fireball spell repeatedly since the beginning and has refined it a lot.
He can also replenish two fireball spells, which is very impressive among ordinary wizards in Denton."
He looked at Hill's strange expression and added slowly: "Except for the Mage Association, there are not many orthodox mages in Denton.
The lord prefers those who can make special potions for him at any time. There are so many mages like that that even orthodox mages don't want to come to Denton.
The Mage Association reluctantly sent a great mage here. After all, this is the largest city in the north, and there must be a branch."
Hill understood, so he didn't ask the runaway lord what medicine he made. There were only a few medicines that the arrogant and extravagant nobles would like.
Anyway, even if there weren't a few books that contained archmage-level spells and they were all duplicates, Hill wanted them all.
After all, there were not even two bookshelves full of spell books in his library. He counted and found that there were quite a few books here, more than three hundred and sixty.
When the time comes, putting it on a reading shelf will also add some insight.
Just like this 6 fireball technique, which has been used for decades, this mage has also made some improvements to make it more powerful.
You can also take a look at the train of thought, Hill thought with some sadness. The chain spell he uses now with 5 fireballs will cost more mana than this.
Although he tries not to use fire spells, Hill still has to know how to do it!
If you are in a situation where you can only use fire spells, it is better than being helpless.
Half of the spell scrolls in his ring are fire spells given to him by Fran and Adrian.
There are even more alchemy bombs.
Hill looked at more piles of books, these strange books of nobles.
These ordinary books are considered valuable even if they are valuable. After all, the worst ones cost more than 10 gold coins. But in the world of mages, books that can be bought with gold coins are always cheap.
Hill looked through it roughly and decided to buy it all.
The books passed down by the nobles of Haifa Saldo are even older.
There are many books, maybe they even brought them with them when they came from Cortez.
The reason why books in this world are expensive is because the so-called paper used in books is made of alchemy and will not decay for thousands of years.
Many alchemy apprentices can survive well as long as they learn how to make paper.
The minimum threshold for alchemy is not high, and you can learn it with a little bit of magic power.
If you don't have the desire to continue studying, you can learn how to make paper and even make herbal medicine, and you can live a good life among ordinary people.
Generally, it is passed down from generation to generation. After all, no matter how much money you spend, you can learn it, and it is not something that most civilians who don't even know how to read can achieve it.
Books that can be purchased by the Mages Association are all books of some value.
Hill looked at several of the books, which were 5,000 years old. He deeply felt that for creatures like nobles, money is always the most important thing in the end.
No matter how much you try to beautify your image of maintaining aristocratic tradition, when the critical moment comes, inheritance still has to give way to money.
Hill nodded and said to the male apprentice: "I want it all. How much does it cost?"
The child neatly handed over a quotation: an ordinary magic book, 10 crystals each. Those rare books, 50 crystals. Those containing archmage spells, 150 crystals.
As for noble books, an ordinary one costs 10 gold coins, a thousand-year-old book costs 100 gold coins, and one in 2000 costs 500 gold coins. In 3000, it costs 1000, in 4000, it costs 2000, and in 5000, it becomes 5000 gold coins.
Hill, who was about to pay, looked at the apprentice who happily held out two boxes to collect the money. He was deeply shocked. No mage has come forward yet. Is this branch completely decided by two apprentices?
The male apprentice looked at Hill's surprised eyes and said calmly: "The Master of our Denton branch is going to
The country was in the capital, and before leaving, I made a list of all the matters and handed them over to our teacher, Master Nigel Beasley.
The teacher has been very busy recently and has no time to come to the Mage Association. Currently, all matters of the branch are handled by us."
Hill was stunned. Didn't even the Mages Association come?
"The branch president has been to the capital for more than half a year. Branch presidents across the country have been called. His Majesty the King has always been envious of the association's wealth.
The vice-president feels that it is better to go to the insurance point more.
But the branch president was away, and the teacher collected a large number of books. There was no money in Denton.
There has been no salary for three months." The female apprentice said quietly, "There were still a few apprentices here, and they all went out to find work. We can't leave, and we won't be able to endure it anymore."
Yes, they are orthodox apprentices who know many spells and can find jobs more easily than the unsophisticated apprentices downstairs.
The male apprentice glanced at his complaining companion: "We are lucky to have met Mr. Magician. This money is enough for the Denton branch to survive.
I will inform the teacher to come back in the evening.
Now that they have money, it’s time for those people to come back and get their salary. It’s up to the teacher to do this.”
Looking at the box of crystals, the female apprentice burst into tears: "I'm so scared! Even the crystals to maintain the defensive magic circle are almost gone! How can we stop it if the teacher is not here!"
Hill looked at the girls who were crying with joy and the male apprentices who were trying to stay calm, and felt deep sympathy for them.
It's really miserable to have a teacher who is careless and irresponsible.
Hill ignored the apprentices who were eagerly looking at him in the hall and went out without looking back.
The two apprentices seemed to have come down and said something, and the hall was filled with excitement. They probably told them that as long as they waited until the Salar people came, they would have a way out.
That male apprentice is really capable, but it's a pity that he already has a teacher, otherwise Hill would definitely introduce him to Adrian. Adrian has been complaining for a long time and can't find a few apprentices who can handle territorial affairs. Until now
There are many things that he has to deal with.
Hill knew that if he hadn't become a warlock, Adrian would have wanted to take him as his first disciple.
Now that things have come to a point, we have to spend a lot of effort to find the first disciple again.
Being the heir to a magic tower is not that easy.
But now it would be great for Adrian to have a few more apprentices who can manage the mage town.
Hill didn't ask the child's name. In the world of mages, high-level mages ask apprentices for their names because they have the desire to accept apprentices.
He works in the Mages Association, so he must have a teacher. Hill can't give him unattainable hopes.
Hill looked back with regret and got into the carriage.
He told Sri: "Let's go. From now on, we will stop when we pass through big cities. We have to go to the Mage Association to buy books." He touched the ring, "There are so many prodigal children. If you don't buy it, you won't buy it. Those who have knowledge in the church will also stop and ask.
.”
"Yes, sir." Sri asked: "Where is the capital? Are you still going?"
"No, no, no, no, no, no," Hill replied, "Go around."
He really didn't want to see how chaotic the capital of Haifa Sardo was.
Hill thought it was better to stay away from the king who had a strong desire to die together.
"Okay, sir."
Hill leaned on the chair, took out a glass of juice and drank it slowly.
Hill suddenly laughed. In the novels before, we could always see the protagonist being very popular in the Mage Association, delivering water and meals, and being accompanied by high-level mages.
Does he dare to eat it if he dares to give it to you?
If he dares to accompany you, let him accompany you?
Really not afraid of death.
The mage is indeed rich, but he doesn't care about using tricks to obtain more resources.
Unless you have a strong background, let him find out that you are a lucky person with many adventures, and thousands of poisons that can kill even elemental elves are waiting for you~~
The elemental body can indeed decompose most poisons, but there are also ones for the soul!
You have a very big secret, and he has a very cruel potion.
Before Hill went out alone, Fran's biggest advice to him was not to eat in public. Even if it was in his ring, if he took it out and exposed it to the air, it would cause accidents.
As long as Hill leaves the carriage, there will be a film that is invisible to the naked eye and composed of natural forces covering his body tightly.
In the Mage Association, it is not necessary and will not allow high-level mages to come out to receive visiting mages.
If this is the case, no mage would dare to enter.
Hill was only surprised because no mage came out when collecting the money.
Generally speaking, the presidents and branch presidents of the Mage Association are just there to keep things under control and basically don’t show up. In the current situation in Haifa Sardo, if you open a magic circle to defend yourself, nothing will happen. So then
Only a vice-president dared to recruit all the branch presidents from the entire country.
It is estimated that the branch president of Denton also took away the mages who usually work. After all, all the professionals in Denton are gone, so there is no use staying in Denton.
I just didn't expect that the mage left behind would do something so unreasonable.
Hill touched the ring with a smile. He hoped to collect as many books as possible in Hefa Sardo. Sometimes you can see many surprises in the books passed down by the nobles.
I hope I can have this kind of luck in other countries.
Hill's carriage went south, and there were many thieves in the forest paths it passed.
But when they saw this alchemy puppet carriage without a coachman, they all hid it secretly.
Hill felt that all the high-level thieves might have run away.
Their information was actually better, and the fact that Salar's colleagues were basically wiped out was enough to scare them.
Who doesn’t have the support of a noble?
But the fact that Salar overturned the car together with the supporting noble was coldly slapped on the faces of all the thieves who were watching.
Maybe these thieves escaped earlier than the nobles?
The remaining gangsters, who are not even professionals, have no guts to approach the mage when they see him.
However, Hill also felt that there were too many thieves and gangsters in Haifa Saldo.
Sure enough, when the country is in turmoil, all kinds of monsters and ghosts come out, and ordinary people have the most difficult life.
Hill has no idea, just leave it to the players to earn experience.
In this world where the elemental power is abundant and abundant, as long as you work hard and cultivate the land, you will never die of hunger.
Common people in many cities and towns grow fruits and vegetables in their small yards to meet the needs of their families.
The wheat needed for staple food is also very cheap. If you don't want to buy it, you can just get some seeds and plant them in your yard.
There are actually very few Warcraft in the country. When they go out to open land for farming, they are more afraid of the nobles who collect taxes, but their eyes will not focus on that point in the yard.
Now that most of the nobles have fled, those who come out to rob are the same scoundrels who used to follow the nobles to show off their power and oppress the common people.
The common people took advantage of this opportunity and quickly went to farm.
Hill thought about it and found that unless he encountered a life-or-death crisis, he still didn't want to kill anyone. Just because he was mentally prepared to kill someone didn't mean that he would take the initiative to look for opportunities.
He released a natural barrier around the carriage. Anyone who dared to take action would be knocked away by the surrounding vines. Life or death would depend on fate.
Hill has traveled to three large cities and collected a lot of books. He is better than Denton, and the people who collect money are all mages.
After bypassing the capital of Haefasardo, Hill will soon pass by the place where the king set up an interception checkpoint.
He could feel that many people were gathered there.
Hill turned the carriage into a sailboat, flew into the air, hid in the clouds and looked down.
Haifa Saldo is an oval-shaped terrain with a small tail. This tail is not far from the country. The king built a long pass here, and most of the country's soldiers were sent to guard it.
The nobles with high-level professional protection basically broke through the barriers and left. Those who were rich also spent money to avoid disasters. The only ones left behind were reluctant to spend money and wanted to gather more people to create pressure and force
The checkpoint guard releases the person.
Hill was high in the air and heard the continuous yelling below.
Just no one cares.
Soldiers who have already enjoyed the benefits, there is no way that you can drive them away with just a little pressure from you.
Hill lay on the side of the boat and watched for a while, then decided to leave out of boredom.
When they have more people and gather some mage knights to fight with the checkpoint guards, William may even enter the capital of Hafa Sardo.
