Darko walked out of the classroom, and on the way back to the dormitory, his mood was still calm for a long time. Although the first lesson only briefly tells the history of the Amecian plane, it contains a huge amount www.biquge.info of information, which is difficult to understand and digest for a while.
The word that appears the most - contract is the most important factor that has played a transformative role in various historical periods, and it can be said that all the order of today's Amecian plane from large to small is based on contract.
Contracts use the power of magic as a medium, gods or laws as justice, blood and soul as seals, and abysses and hells as punishments.
When a mortal makes a magical contract with a mortal, he will turn to the god as a notarization of the godhead, and the person who breaks the contract will be punished by the gods.
Darko suddenly remembered the trade contract with Owen at the time of the baptism, in exchange for a small favor at the cost of binding his loyalty, was it worth it?
"Who knows? Maybe the gains outweigh the losses, maybe the profits will be doubled, or the gains and losses may be equal. Bright answered Darko's concern in his consciousness, "No one can say anything about this kind of hypothetical choice, after all, we are not the gods of prophecy, and this kind of thing is better to think less." ”
In the same way, when faced with a matter, Bright always analyzes and thinks from a rational point of view, while Darko is the master who looks at everything. Especially when Bright loses his faith, everything will be faced purely rationally, without mixing personal sexiness, because he is even confused about what his emotions should look like, as for Darko, Phyllis is his faith, and his attitude towards various things is simpler.
Despite this, Bright is not arbitrary, and he will always discuss and analyze the cause and effect of a matter with Darko. What Darko doesn't know is that in fact, Bright is also confused many times, and following Darko's master to do things, at least there is a direction, which is actually commendable for Bright, who can't find a direction in life now.
When Darko realized that he was thinking cranky again, he stopped thinking in time. He remembered that he had been running around behind his master's ass since he had been summoned by his master, and now that his master was out on a trial mission and had left him in the academy, he had nothing to do, so he began to think like this. Thinking is certainly the embodiment of the integrity of the soul, which is what distinguishes Dakko from other low-level undead creatures, and it is precisely because of this that he is so valued by his master, which can't help but make Dakko complacent. Sometimes, however, thinking can be too frustrating for him, and in order to stop thinking meaninglessly, Darko decides to find something to do for himself.
Feeling the weight of the rucksack on his back, Darko remembered that he had rushed to class in the morning after returning from the Undead Hell, and had not had time to dispose of the soil harvested in the Hell. After discerning the direction, Daktronics walked towards the unmanned market.
Since it was a meal, there were not many people in the market, so he quickly found the appraisal office of the unmanned market, took out the fish net and his badge, and handed it to a business mentor.
"It's ...... Such a pure breath!" The dead breath emanating from the fishing nets caused the affairs mentor to feel uncomfortable, but he didn't have time to care about the slightest discomfort. He looked at Darko in amazement, completely puzzled as to where the cadet wearing the Magic Apprentice badge had gotten so much of it.
It usually can only be found in ancient tombs thousands of years ago, and it needs a series of conditions such as death, time, darkness, and dampness to form, so it is the rarest type of alchemy materials, but I didn't expect a magic apprentice to take out such a large pile at one time, and it was also packed with fishing nets.
"I'm selling it for someone else, can I put it on the shelves?" Darko made up a plausible lie.
The affairs tutor nodded thoughtfully, agreeing with Darko's statement, then looked at the appraisal manual in his hand and said, "The soil is a rare material marked by the Alchemy Guild, and it is currently in a state of priceless and unmarketable, so there is no need for valuation. The Alchemy Guild's bid is nine credits per kilogram, which means that you don't have to worry about not being able to sell it, the Alchemy Guild will charge as much as this kind of material has, and they will come to buy this kind of material at the end of each month. ”
When Darko heard the price of nine cents per kilogram, he was immediately shocked, and he had fished back five kilograms of soil with his fishing nets this time, so he had earned 45 credits at once!
The affairs mentor asked, "Do you have any specific requirements?"
Generally speaking, there are some magical equipment that is not sold for its own value due to its specific history or significance. Others want to barter and exchange equally rare items for the resources they need. Trading rare materials in large quantities like the Daktronics often occurs in transactions with alchemists. Alchemists' time has always been precious, and they rarely go to the market to buy and sell materials themselves, but directly hang on the market to specify special requirements, so this business mentor has this question.
"It's sold at the market price. "At present, Darko does not need special and rare items, and ordinary magic items can enhance his combat power, which can be purchased with credits, and of course there is no need for time-consuming and laborious barter.
Due to the current situation of Darko's body that does not have a physical body and cannot increase his magic power, the external enhancement is more suitable for him, although the cost performance is very low, but there is no way to do it.
The affairs mentor recorded Darko's badge on the alchemy machine and returned it to him. Dakko did this, and planned to return to the dormitory immediately, the master's words before going out for the trial, Dakko has always kept in mind, often hanging around outside, it is naturally easy to provoke right and wrong, so it is safer to return to the dormitory early.
On the way, Darko sorted out his plans and thought about what needed to be done at the moment. After the sixty-day period, the credits that need to be repaid have been earned enough, so that there is no need to trouble the master to pay off the debt, and the plan to enclose the land in the hell of the dead has been completed quite smoothly, but because the master is not around, it will not be possible to earn credits in the same way for the next two months. The ghost king was also taken away by the master, does the master like ghosts?
Darko had a daily schedule for the next period of time, some in the morning and some in the afternoon, and the master chose three electives for him, two of which were related to necromancy, and the other was the actual use of ice magic, and it seemed that Phyllis was determined to train him to be a competent lich.
"Hello, Darko Nikeremons. ”
Darko was walking with his head bowed when a soft voice interrupted his thoughts as he saw a pair of snow-white toes appear in front of him. The toe fluttered in the air, still some distance from the ground, and the white skirt obscured the view above the toe, but it was even more imaginative.
Darko looked up and saw a beautiful and elegant face, "Miss Roberts?"
The air flow around the white dress forms a system of countless rotational cycles, but it echoes the girl's smile, constantly changing subtle changes, "Just call me Wendy." ”
There was a bit of caution in Darko's eyes, "Hello Miss Roberts, do you have anything to do with me?"
Because Darko had already met Wendy during the entrance test, he was no stranger. Moreover, in the academy, many student information from major guilds and churches is also often discussed, and Darko has also heard of it, one of which is the Holy Daughter Wendy of the Stormwind Church. But Darko still knows something about himself, he doesn't think he has any very good qualities that Wendy can pay attention to, not to mention that he hasn't even figured out how he died in his previous life, and he should keep a low profile at this stage, and shouldn't attract too many people's attention.
Wendy came to him this time out of curiosity, and since she noticed the name Darko when she broke the crystal ball during the entrance test, she became suspicious, and after returning to investigate him through the Church of the Stormwind. The news network of the Storm Church is not well-informed by some special guilds, but it also has a lot of infiltration into the adjacent dark churches, not to mention that many people have seen the conflict in St. Irvine City some time ago, so the news is naturally impossible to hide. Originally, I wanted to learn about it casually out of curiosity, but the results of the investigation surprised Wendy as well. She already knew that it wasn't a human hidden in this cloak, but a skeleton.
As a teaching organization under the jurisdiction of the Magic Guild, the Academy of Magic is very inclusive, and the races of the students are not limited to the human race, the half-beasts of the Horror Forest, the elves of the Life Church, and the dwarves of the Desperate Plateau all have students and even mentors who exchange and learn in the academy. With the exception of orcs, who have zero magical talent, almost all races can be found in the Academy. It is said that a few years ago, there was a red dragon in the form of a human and stayed in the academy for a long time, and it is precisely because of this that it is not uncommon for students in the academy to wear cloaks, some of them are of a specific race, and some are afraid of being recognized by the enemy. As a result, Darko's cloak wasn't too eye-catching, and no one knew that for the first time in the history of the Academy, there was news of the undead.
However, Darko is not a simple skeleton, it is associated with important figures such as Phyllis, Selby, Elena, and even Cardinal Narich, and it seems to have a subtle relationship with the Temple of Light.
When Wendy learns that Darko is just a pet summoned by Phyllis, she realizes that Darko is just a plaything like herself. In her opinion, the reason why Darko was sent to study in the magic academy was just a temporary bad taste for Phyllis, and when she got tired of playing, she would change to a different toy.
"You're bound by a contract. Wendy's voice was still soft and pleasant, but it was no longer pleasant, but with a hint of weariness.
Darko was shocked and blurted out, "Do we know each other?"
Then Darko suddenly realized that even if Wendy had something to do with her previous life, she should know Bright, so he hurriedly handed over his body to Bright.
Wendy didn't react for a moment, showing a stunned expression.
"Do you know me?" Bright pondered her words, observing Wendy's reaction as she pondered what she had said, and she used a word that meant that she was bound by the contract, and judging by her expression, it was obvious that she was confused by Darko's question. Then it is very likely that she did not know about her past life, but only became interested in her because of a chance encounter on the entrance test a few days ago.
Wendy was even more surprised at this time, she clearly felt that Darko seemed to be a different person, a little less like the cautious new student before, but became awe-inspiring all over. This kind of momentum on his body is somewhat similar to his own, which is the unique posture of a god, and no other foreign object can shake him except the god he believes in.
Such an empty-eyed posture is the disposition left over from Bright's previous life, even if he has questioned the beliefs of his previous life, the temperament on his body has been retained, and it takes a long time to transform to change.
"I don't know you, that's why I want to know. Wendy stared at him closely, as if she wanted to see through the enchanted cloak, if Darko was a god and could hide it so tightly in front of him, and even the shadows of the Stormwind Church couldn't find out where he came from, then he was a terrible existence, Wendy said in an accentuated tone, "What else is there under your cloak besides that skeleton." ”
"What is she referring to? Is it the past of the past and the present life, the resurrection on the battlefield of Scott, the transaction in the Dark Temple, the enclosure under the hell of the undead, or the coexistence of Darko with herself?"
Bright suddenly found that he had seen so many people that sometimes he felt that this small skeleton was overwhelmed. He wants to find someone to share with him, as if he can share the pressure on himself as long as he communicates with others, but he has no one to communicate with.
Bright grimaced, straightened his face, and responded, "Mine, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, Miss Roberts." ”
Wendy saw the other party's reaction, but smiled, "It's really none of my business, I'm just here to say hello to you today." ”
"Say hello?" Bright looked even more serious.
"That's right, just say hi. Wendy nodded, "I thought you were one of the same kind of people as me." Whether you admit it or not, we are all burdened with something beyond our own capabilities. ”
"Live with the world. After Wendy finished speaking, she didn't wait for Darko to agree, and turned around and floated away.
Rest with the world is the greeting of the Tempest Church, just as the Church of Light shines on all beings and the darkness of the Church of Darkness perpetuates. They believe that the air element is the existence closest to the will of the world, and the wind is the breath of the world, which is equivalent to the laws of nature, and the ultimate state pursued by the believers of the Storm Church is to breathe with the world.
Wendy shook her head secretly, why did she find this undead creature with her head and tail hidden? Not to mention that it was still a matter of great importance to herself, just because the other party had the same temperament as herself.
Bright watched the white back fade away and muttered, "Wendy Roberts." ”
