After patrolling for half the night, Qin looked at the tender white sun rising on the horizon and sighed softly.
Sister Helen, things are really in trouble here.
In the past, there was the Shadow Sect who had obtained strange alchemical technology from unknown sources, and later there were energy disturbances from other dimensions, including the demonic tides that almost every city encountered from time to time.
this world……
Taking one last look at Changjie, who was still sleeping, Qin turned around and walked back to the city lord's palace.
"Squeak~"
Li Wen walked out of the door and stretched in the fresh morning air.
The passage of time is almost imperceptible in the process of studying runes. No wonder I always hear the legends about mages who spent all their sleep and food studying.
"Three circles to the left, three circles to the right, neck twisting, butt twisting..."
"Squeak~"
The sound of the door opening interrupted Li Wen's movements.
Leonard's vicissitudes of life appeared in Li Wen's field of vision, and at the same time, a huge golden exclamation point appeared above his head!
Leonard, who had just walked into the sunshine and was about to stretch his body to get rid of fatigue, saw Li Wen and expressed surprise and doubt.
"Huh?"
"oh?"
"Gan!"
"Um?"
"Are you a mage?"
As a mage, he could feel the adjusted and orderly magic elements around Li Wen.
The protective magic circle created by Arcane Guard is even more of a shining sign.
After not seeing each other for a few days, will the salted fish turn over?
Li Wen raised his face and smiled.
"lucky."
Leonard rolled his eyes.
"There is no luck in career paths."
However, thinking about the Icathian Thunder Shower that the mage friends he had met in the past few days were taught and allowed to teach to the Chosen Son, Leonard also roughly guessed the reason.
Apart from marveling at this little guy's whimsical ideas and courage, Leonard didn't want to make any comments.
The process is not important.
Just like he never asked Li Wen where the first two high-level runes came from.
Everyone has their own secret.
"Where are you going so early?"
Li Wen asked proactively.
Leonard waved his hand.
"Stop talking, I'm almost exhausted. Ever since I heard your exclamation point light up, I wish I could live one day as if it were two days."
As expected.
Leonard came closer and sat down on the stone steps in front of Levin's door.
"But in the past two days, when everyone saw how busy I was, they all put up exclamation marks, which made things a lot better."
"Isn't it a good thing to be busy?"
It means that a lot of soul energy is coming in.
"The key is that those chosen ones keep asking me if I can give them more important tasks. Is there anything I need them to do for me?"
"so?"
"So as long as the players ask me this question, I ask them to meditate beside me to adjust their magic power. I don't know if they can meditate, but they seem to be enjoying it."
As he spoke, Leonard poked his head with his fingertips.
"Hey, do you think there's something wrong with those Chosen Sons?"
Maybe the players seem strange to the natives, but their actions must be logical.
The logic is... Leonard has become a daily NPC that can issue daily recurring tasks to all players.
He can gain soul energy from his interactions with players, and vice versa.
Does the teacher have to clock in to meditate?
So classic...
Seeing Leonard staring at a golden exclamation mark and leaving like an angel, Li Wen rubbed his chin and thought.
Why is Leonard able to issue so many tasks to players but not himself?
Only one task can be released every seven calendar days, which is too slow.
Li Wen understands the growth of players better than anyone else. After all, they will not die.
Regardless of the current world, the aborigines still have the final say, and those high-level professionals have the final say and move the world.
But when the players grow up...
Are you a great legend? We are five!
When the world is in danger, players are a reliable wall.
When the world is not in danger, players are the biggest danger.
Players are both risks and opportunities.
If you have the ability to influence or guide players on a large scale, can you grow quickly?
So looking back, what is the essential difference between myself and Leonard?
He is level 9 and he is level 3?
He turned out to be just eighteen years old.
He doesn’t have his own big…
neither.
During the chat with Ah Zhi, Li Wen learned that there are also some non-professional city citizens who can often issue tasks to players.
Elena who threw the eggs, Wood whose kitten ran away again, Barber who always wanted to eat chicken...
These NPCs have almost become the iconic characters of their Sword Wind City, at least among the players.
So professional level is not critical.
Age doesn't matter either.
So……
Is it just the influence in society?
In other words, social relationships?
Leonard's job is to guide the Chosen Ones to grow up in the temple. This is his job, and this is the obligation he needs to fulfill in the eyes of all natives.
And what about yourself?
A little transparent.
If I didn't bump into others directly while walking, I'm afraid no one would care about me.
As for the job...a cleaner and shopping guide who runs a mediocre grocery store in a corner?
The only permission to publish tasks was obtained after negotiating a deal with the Mages Association.
And this deal doesn't allow most people to know about him.
Now, most people in Swordwind City know about the existence of Icacia Thunder Shower.
But no one cares who or where the chicken is that laid the egg.
Therefore, you need to enter this world.
Go into the social system of the indigenous people and let everyone know that you exist?
Hiss~
Have fun!
How comfortable it is to stay in bed.
At this moment, the soul of salted fish and reason began to fight again.
Leaving aside the confrontation, Li Wen still needs to prepare spells.
The spell models engraved in my mind are gradually being forgotten.
If he does not strengthen his memory and prepare in advance, he will not be able to cast any spell except 0-level spells for an entire natural day.
And there is one most important problem - he has no money!
The mage is the richest, and the mage is also the poorest.
For example, Li Wen is the latter.
The casting of many spells requires certain casting materials to allow the spell to be completed.
And those casting materials need to be bought, and they are all real money.
Li Wen's savings shrank sharply in the few days after becoming a mage, and he was almost too poor to open the pot.
ah!
Have fun, have fun! Have fun!
It’s so hot! I want to turn into a devil!
…
When I came to the store, I found that it was quite lively.
A tall woman wearing brown tight-fitting leather armor and carrying two swords behind her back was staring at Obasan who was sitting at the cashier with her hands folded.
The smaller Ah Zhi landed behind the tall woman, timidly pulling on the corner of her clothes.
The tall Miss Ranger is competing with Aunt Susan.
"We bought this sword!"
"Not for sale!"
Where can I take care of my grandson after selling it?
"I'll add money!"
“It can only be obtained through entrustment!”
"Really? I don't believe it."
Ah Zhi held the sword and nodded to Miss Ranger, "Really."
"real or fake?"
"really."
"Fake but true!"
Miss Youxia took Ah Zhi's hand and said, "I have money, so I won't be so angry."
Turning around, she looked at Aunt Susan, who was as steady as a rock.
"Give me a price and I'll buy it! Otherwise, I'll destroy your store!"
As the chair creaked unbearably, Susan stood up from the seat, looking proud.
"If you have the ability, just smash it! If you smash it, I will ask the city lord to award you to me. From now on, you will have to work here!"
"..."
hateful!
Miss Ranger bit her lip, feeling that this fat aunt was a respectable opponent.
"What's wrong?"
Li Wen stepped inside the door.
Ah Zhi seemed to have seen the savior, secretly whispering an explanation in Miss Youxia's ear.
"Actually, I'm lurking here~ There is a weird NPC here, and I feel like there might be something strange in his place."
