"Senior Lillian, when exactly will I set off?" Colin paused, put down the black tea in his hand, and continued to ask Lillian.
"In three days." Lilian replied without thinking.
"So fast?"
Lilian glanced at the courtyard outside the window and continued to explain:
"As early as more than a month ago, the schools in Neustadt City had begun to prepare for this matter. The departure time in three days was decided by the nine school schools through joint consultation.
Whether it is the accompanying wizards of the Alseus Society like you or the wizards like us participating in the war, we will set off in three days."
Colin nodded, his heart sinking slightly.
He will set off in three days. Such a short time is really a bit hasty for him...
But in the face of the general trend, personal demands...are often the most insignificant.
"I understand, Senior Sister Lilian." He sighed in his heart and agreed.
Then he seemed to have thought of something, and he spoke again: "Senior Lilian, the magic stone I owe you... I will pay it back to you after I get the subsidy."
"Yeah." Lilian responded briefly, with a calm and serious face, no politeness, and didn't say much.
After bidding farewell to Lillian, Colin felt inexplicably irritable, so he came to the front courtyard and took a walk.
It was already approaching noon, and the sun shot straight down to the earth like a golden arrow, falling on him...but it did not bring the heat as in the past.
Summer in Asia is almost over...
An apple tree planted by Renee on the left has already produced fruit. The fruit is not big in size and is also green.
Time flies... Colin sighed secretly.
I recall that it was still winter when I first set foot on the Siya continent...
At that time, the cold wind of winter was mixed with snowflakes, and the black wide-brimmed hat of the Anzuoke City Guard Captain was covered with frost...
This scene was beautiful, something he had never seen before when he lived in the south in his previous life, and it made his memory particularly fresh.
Shaking his head, Colin dismissed the distracting thoughts and began to think about what needed to be done in the next three short days.
Although the super brain has greatly enhanced his memory ability, it does not mean that he has become a cold computer.
On the contrary, because the memories of the past have become clearer, it is easier for him to sigh... But his hometown and the past are already out of reach
"Renee, I'm going out to make braised fish for dinner. I'll come back to eat it in the evening." He ordered as he walked towards the door.
"Okay, Master." Renee, who had been following him, responded softly, watching Colin go out.
After following Colin for such a long time, she learned at least five different dishes from Colin every week on average and tried to cook them.
Braised fish is one of them, and she has already mastered it.
………………
Half an hour later, Tongqiangwei Street.
A public carriage slowly stopped, and Colin stepped off it and walked into the huge bookstore in front of him.
This is the largest bookstore on Tongqiangwei Street, and its name is Tongqiangwei Bookstore.
"Distinguished first-level wizard, what do you need?"
Perhaps because he was wearing the school badge and the uniform of the Xisheng School, when he entered the bookstore, the bookstore manager came out to receive him.
The supervisor is a senior wizard apprentice, a wealthy middle-aged man, and he is watching him respectfully at the moment.
But if you look closely, you can detect the surprise in the supervisor's eyes.
Although Copper Rose Bookstore is the largest bookstore in Neustadt City, most of the witchcraft sold in it is still in the apprenticeship stage. The remaining first-level witchcraft is either incomplete or generic.
The audience is more of wandering wizards.
If you want to buy first-level witchcraft, most wizards choose auctions... Wizards of a school like Colin usually exchange it in the school instead of buying it outside.
Colin didn't explain much, he just said lightly:
"Bring me some magic about walking and escaping, detection, defense, um, and witchcraft similar to being silent and leaving no trace."
"Okay, sir."
Manager Futai nodded in agreement, took a few steps, and asked the clerk waiting next to him to get the witchcraft. Then he came back and took Colin to the reception room to sit down.
The supervisor respectfully poured a cup of black tea for Colin, secretly guessing.
'I don't know whether this gentleman bought it for research or for his own descendants.'
Colin didn't have to wait long before several clerks walked in with a list each.
Colin took the list calmly and looked at the price at first glance.
The apprenticeship of witchcraft is not expensive, and the Silent and Traceless magic stones he purchased before only cost him one hundred and twenty magic stones.
But the problem now is that he doesn't have many magic stones on his body.
Perhaps because he is a first-level wizard, there are many witchcrafts listed densely on each list. After a rough scan, there should be at least hundreds of kinds in each list.
As for the price, most of them range from 20 magic stones to 90 magic stones.
Seeing this, Colin breathed a sigh of relief. The magic stones he has left now, after setting aside the amount to buy some supplies, are about 300 magic stones... which should be enough for him to use his current shortcomings.
Board make up.
Yes, after taking a walk in the courtyard and thinking carefully, he found that the problem he needed to solve most at the moment was the lack of witchcraft in his hands.
He was about to head to the southern seas. His life was at stake and he had to take it seriously.
It's just that first-level witchcraft is either too expensive, or requires credits that he doesn't have to redeem...
So he could only find another way to buy some apprenticeship witchcraft and use gold paper to break the limit.
Colin flipped through the list and selected carefully.
As he told his supervisor, the only two aspects that he currently does not need to make up for are attack and defense. Others, such as escape, are relatively lacking.
Among the attacks, there are fireballs that can continue to break limits and summoning fire elements, so he doesn't have to worry about it for the time being.
As for defense...the steel temperature-resistant force field can continue to break the limit.
I think that after this limit is broken, I can reach the level of first-level witchcraft, which can be considered useful.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Just to avoid reaching the limit by breaking the limit again in the future, you also need to prepare some similar witchcraft for it, and integrate it to break the limit when the limit is reached.
"In terms of detection, except for detecting evil, give me the rest..." Colin paused and looked at the price carefully, then changed his words: "Not all, just detect life, detect
Magic energy these two."
"Okay, sir, ninety magic stones in total."
"There are also speed escapes, which require flying skills and ground escape skills."
"One hundred and twenty magic stones."
The supervisor continued to nod.
"Defensively..." Colin paused and shook his head, "No need for the time being."
The cheap defensive witchcraft on the list basically overlaps with his current steel temperature-resistant force field, while the more expensive ones basically require more than 120 magic stones... It's not that overlapping is bad, after all, as long as it doesn't completely overlap, it's fine.
There is still room for improvement.
It's just that good steel needs to be used on the blade. Two hundred and ten magic stones have been spent on the first two aspects, and now there is only a little over a hundred magic stones left... which is not much anymore.
He wants to spend his budget of over one hundred dollars on more valuable things.
"Bring me the Silence Technique and the Sisibi Elimination Technique...that's all. How much do you think it will cost?"
The defense can continue to increase beyond the limit, but the Silent and Traceless items that were purchased not long ago have turned into gold and cannot be exceeded anymore.
It is more cost-effective to give priority to making up for this aspect.
However... no matter whether they are silent or traceless, their level and quality are higher than witchcraft such as arrow magic, but like them, they can only break the limit twice before reaching gold.
But the same fireball technique can still continue to break the limit.
‘It seems that the level and quality of witchcraft do not represent its limit-breaking potential.’ Colin thought to himself.
"There are three hundred and twenty magic stones in total, sir." The supervisor said, and at the same time, he ordered the other clerks to go get the corresponding witchcraft.
After a while, Colin left the bookstore with a lot of harvest.
