Chapter 20 Secret Book

Next to Palin is a door made of building blocks.

Go through the door and lead directly to a grocery store in the corner of the trading market on the ground floor of the tower.

Hero didn't know why the apprentice had to come to such a dilapidated general store to get the books on the list.

Hundreds of people crowded into the house.

Before Hero could enter, he heard shouts coming from inside:

"Slow down, slow down! Don't be crowded, there are all available! After receiving the books, you can choose a mentor. If you don't know the system, you can ask me directly, five soul coins per question!"

However, every apprentice who came out after receiving the books could not help but curse:

"Profiteer!"

From the outside, it looks like an ordinary grocery store, but when you go inside, you find that it's huge inside.

Sure enough, it also inherited the characteristics of the tower, the space folding soul technique.

After looking at it in the past few days, Holo found that this soul technique was so common. It was found in every house, and everyone seemed to know it.

Wherever his eyes glanced, the floor was covered with disorderly books, newspapers, and bottles, as well as some bottles and jars staggered here and there.

There are also countless bookshelves and cabinets more than ten meters high displayed in the house, and they all bear an undue weight.

The grid was obviously crowded with paper, but someone stuck a corner of the book inside, revealing most of the cover - 'Key Points for Replanting the Eyes of the Black Goat'.

And the front.

An old man with a white beard and a bald head sat behind a desk covered with suede table cushions.

When an apprentice arrived, he took out a cloth bag from under the table.

But with so many cloth pockets, Hero pointed his toes and didn't see where he took them out.

After showing the voucher, the old man read it and checked off the name on the parchment with the quill in his hand.

Herod received his cloth pocket.

Before leaving his desk, the old man habitually promoted:

"Detroit grocery store offers good quality and low prices. If you have no money, you can come and check it out. You can find good things!"

After saying that, he raised his eyebrows and winked at Holo.

Shivering, Hero quickly accelerated his pace to leave.

Instead of waiting to look at it after returning to the dormitory, I randomly found a corner, turned over the things in my pocket, and started checking the list.

The environment of this grocery store is poor, and many apprentices like him are squatting in the corner, worried that there is something wrong with the things.

If something goes wrong, you can go back and save it in time.

"First, the map!"

Unfolding a twice-folded sheepskin, the map of the [Basketball Market] where he was currently located appeared in front of Hero's eyes.

A red arrow is next to the 'Detroit Grocery Store', which is exactly where he is now.

The tower still took care of the apprentices. In order to prevent them from getting lost in the complex terrain of the tower, the locating spirit technique was specially engraved on the map.

There are densely packed shops all over the sheepskin. As Holo's fingertips swipe at it, the name of the selected shop also enlarges.

"The otherworld version of the navigation has good navigation and is quite clear. The only pity is that there is no voice reminder."

In the upper right corner of the map, in addition to the scale, there are also floor classifications. When you point your finger on a floor, the map plans the nearest void staircase leading to that floor.

After entering the floor, the map on the sheepskin will be completely transformed into the situation of that floor.

There are seven floors in total, excluding the [Bazaar on the Ground Floor], [Dorm Hall], [Library] and three public areas, the remaining four floors are all about teaching.

The two floors of [Bazaar] and [Library] belong to the public area of ​​the tower and belong to the soul-forbidden safety area.

The rest are closed floors during the apprenticeship of the magician.

The closed floor does not only take care of Hero's current period, but also includes all magician apprentices.

"As for the apprenticeship instructions...it's normal."

In general, the tower has a three-year adaptation period for each period of apprentice magicians.

During the so-called adaptation period, apprentices can receive 20 soul coins every month and do not need to perform semester tasks.

There will be an assessment every three years, and the results of the assessment will determine the apprentice's resource treatment for the next three years.

In the ninth year, which is the last evaluation and assessment, the tower will directly issue three years of resources. If you cannot be promoted to a rank magician in the last year...

Hero used his toes to figure out what terrible end awaited them.

The so-called assessments are divided into different types, and different assessment tasks are formulated according to the apprentices of different systems.

But the ultimate goal is to screen out most of the garbage that the tower considers unqualified and pool resources.

As for the use of soul coins.

Hero had seen Mena activate the long-distance [Gate] before, using a bag of soul coins.

This magician's currency, jointly certified by thirteen towers, has extremely strong purchasing power.

For apprentices, basically all aspects can be linked to soul coins.

For example, when subscribing to a tutor course, a basic soul skill course usually lasts for about 12 to 18 sessions, and the cost of soul coins ranges from 15 to 30 soul coins.

This depends on the difficulty of the course, its popularity and the instructor's suggested price.

Of course, the tower will limit the price of courses so that they are not too high.

Some course instructors will provide experimental materials, but these are limited to the experience package.

If you want to use it skillfully or really master it, you have to wait until you buy the materials after class and practice repeatedly.

As for the in-depth study of the system, the development of soul techniques, purchasing tickets to the Soul Valley, etc., these are not things that apprentices can consider.

At least he had to learn a way to make a living first.

Otherwise, relying solely on Gaota's subsistence allowance, he would have very little money during his ten-year apprenticeship.

All in all, soul coins are closely related to the magician's life, learning, becoming stronger, etc.

It is an essential consumable for all tower wizards.

When you have enough soul coins, you can even make them into a bed and lie on it to sleep, which will have a weak effect on the increase rate of soul strength.

Accumulation over time can also help to some extent.

There are four paper books and a brass...book in the pocket?

‘Basic knowledge for magicians’

‘Essential Soul Technique During Apprenticeship’

‘Simple use of soul circuit’

‘Silver Moon Tide Meditation’

These are four paper books, as well as four short courses, which will be taught by teaching assistants. These are also necessary courses for early apprenticeships.

As for the brass book...

It was very thick. Helo tried it, but couldn't open it with brute force. He tried to pour soul energy into it.

With the infusion of soul energy, the notches on the brass cover were lit up. When the entire cover was lit up, the book could be opened easily.

Hero could feel that this brass book was bound to his soul.

"Secret book?"

I also learned the instructions for using the brass book.

It is used to receive messages from the tower. The magician can also inquire, interact, and record through the secret code and the tower.

It can also be used to chat with the magician!

"This! I dream back to the time when I went out and asked others for the Penguin..."

But I am very happy to have a local area network in a high tower. At least I don’t have to worry about flying pigeons delivering messages and the pigeons being eaten halfway!

And at this time.

A message from the secret book popped up.

"Please choose a system course instructor!" [Click to view]

This is a must-have message from Tower Communications to all new apprentices.

Unlike the four basic courses, they are only frequently used in the early stages of apprenticeship.

This systematic course runs through a magician’s life.

System courses often have earl-level magicians as the main instructors. The magicians of this level have mastered all the basic knowledge of the system, and then they have to develop their own soul structure.

On the back end of the secret code, the tower also considerately synchronizes the suitability of different systems for apprentices.

This also greatly facilitates apprentices’ screening and comparison.

The future tall tower needs to choose its first cornerstone at this moment.

But faced with a page full of different systems, Hero couldn't help but sigh:

"There are too many systems that are highly compatible with me. I have a phobia of choice!"
