Chapter 610: Pharmacist Training
In addition, they had heard from Gavin and the magicians of the Tower of Dusk that this town was more than just a town to live in, and that if they encountered an attack like the last time, they would definitely not be harmed again. Can the words of the magicians themselves be fake, with a new house to live in, new furniture, and security, this can be called a fairyland-like life in the Anriel Continent.
Lin Li was about to go to New Dark Cloud Town to see the residents, but when he walked to the gate, he was attracted by a strange sight.
Is that...... Magician? The magic robe on his body has lost its original appearance, and in addition to being washed white, it has also been patched a lot. This kind of clothes is worn by ordinary people, and very few people can wear it, but now it is on the body of a magician.
"I heard that you are in charge of food and shelter here, as well as clothes and magical equipment, I don't know if it's true," the magician with a dejected face was asking the reception in front of the door about the benefits of the Tower of Dusk.
"Are you ......" The magician who received him looked the man up and down for a while, and asked suspiciously, "Are you really a magician?" ”
The person in charge of the reception was only a ninth-level magician, but looking at what he was wearing, everything was much stronger than the person who claimed to be a magician. He didn't speak ill of him, but he really doubted the identity of the person who came, and how unlucky he had to be to be like this.
The receiving magician couldn't see it, but Lin Li had already reached the legendary realm, and at a glance, he could see that the down-and-out magician was actually a great magician, and he also had the strength of about nineteen levels. This has to make people wonder, how could a nineteenth-level great magician be in this situation in front of him. Not to mention the Tower of Twilight with high welfare, even if you find a small force to join, it will definitely not be like this.
"Elder, this person's name is Apuda," a voice came from the side, it was Gavin, who was about to accompany Lin Li to New Cloud Town.
"You know him? I think his strength is good, how can he be so ......" Lin Li couldn't bear to say.
"Miserable? He has always been so miserable, it is said that his teacher is a legendary mage, but he will not reveal who it is. Gavin looked at Apuda, who was arguing with the reception, and his face was quite helpless.
Gavin and Apuda know each other, but they don't have a deep relationship, in fact, there are very few people who have a relationship with Apuda, because this person is too different. Although Apuda has the strength of a great mage, it is really humiliating that no one wants to stand with such a beggar-like person.
Apuda is forty-four years old this year, but it has been almost ten years since he reached the strength of a nineteenth-level archmage. It is said that his teacher was a legendary mage, but no matter who asked, he was tight-lipped and refused to reveal the slightest thing, so no one took it seriously.
Gavin whispered to Lin Li about the strange archmage Apda.
Everyone knows that magicians are a very expensive profession, and as long as they are related to magic, everything is expensive. Even if you can save on magic equipment, there are many necessary expenses, otherwise it will be many times more difficult to practice magic.
Human beings themselves are not as talented as the High Jīng Spirit, why did they finally overthrow the rule of the High Jīng Spirit with the main force of human resistance. One of the main reasons is that human beings have found a way to break through the shackles of magic, and have the capital to compete with the higher jīng spirits in terms of magic, that is, active potions.
It is said that when humans began to learn magic, information was presented to the queen of the jīng spirit, and on the question of whether to prohibit humans from learning magic, the lords agreed that humans with short lifespans were destined to be unable to surpass the higher jīng spirits in terms of magic. Therefore, for the higher jīng spirits, letting humans learn magic is just more cannon fodder who can do magic. Another reason is that it is believed that human jīng divine powers are too rigid to be suitable for learning magic.
And the active potion is a potion used to improve the condition of human jīng's divine power, and it is precisely because of the appearance of the active potion that human beings can go further on the road of magic. Not everyone has the perverted jīng divine power of Lin Li, so the active potion is like a key to open the door of magic for magicians, and it is an indispensable help on the path of magic.
But anything that is indispensable like this will not be cheap, let alone necessary for magicians. Each of the high-grade active potions costs thousands of gold coins, and even those inferior goods cost hundreds of gold coins. However, for the average mage, spending a few hundred gold coins a month to buy a few active potions can do it even for the most down-and-out mages.
However, this Apuda was so depressed that he couldn't even take out these hundreds of gold coins, so that he reached level nineteen more than ten years ago, but he has been stuck until now and has not had the slightest sign of entering the peak of level nineteen.
In fact, the profession of a magician costs money, but a magician also has a very good way of making money. Not to mention joining any power organization, just join an adventurous team and do some simple small tasks, this Apuda will not fall into this way.
Gavin continued, and Lin Li finally understood that the reason for Apuda's downfall was really self-inflicted.
Not joining any organization, for a nineteenth-level great magician, it is equivalent to directly cutting off the best financial route. You must know that the nineteenth-level Great Wizard is absolutely sought-after in this Light Wind Plain. It is said that the patriarch of the Marfa family, Hutton's father, Sorensen, once personally came to the door to solicit and offered a very generous treatment, but was simply rejected by Apda. Even the Marfa family couldn't impress him, let alone the other forces.
Join some large and medium-sized forces, such as activation potions, which are not very precious potions, are all a kind of welfare, and they are sent to the mages on time. If you join some small forces that are not in the stream, with the strength of the nineteenth level of Apuda, I am afraid that you will directly become the boss. However, Apuda is like a paranoid, no matter what kind of force solicits him, he unceremoniously refuses, and even because of this, he hid in the Dragon Mountain Range and lived in seclusion for several years.
It's not that there are no people who don't join any organization, the ancestor of the Marfa family, who didn't join any organization at the beginning, and relied on his own strength to gain a foothold in this breezy plain and create the Marfa family. With a nineteenth-level strength, Apuda may not be able to do it to such an extent, but as long as he puts in some strength, he can at least live well. However, this is where he deserves it, not only does he not join any organization, but he also refuses to go to the adventure guild to take on tasks. No one knows why, the only explanation is that he is lazy, and the result is that Apuda is so depressed that he may not be able to scrape together enough money for active potions in a year, let alone any magic equipment.
Without the help of active potions, magic cultivation was naturally almost stagnant, and Apuda was thus known as the most alternative magician in the Breeze Plains, and one card at the nineteenth level was more than ten years.
Lin Li shook his head when he heard this, if he didn't say anything, the poor man would have something to hate. The nineteenth-level Great Wizard, with a little effort, will not fall into such a state, even if he can't break through to the legendary realm in more than ten years, he can at least reach the peak of the nineteenth level.
"Lord, look at this ......," Gavin pointed to the door and whispered to Lin Li.
Lin Li sighed and said, "You take him to go through the formalities, how can you say that everyone is a magician, and the purpose of the establishment of the magician union is to help everyone solve difficulties." ”
The Supreme Council established the Magicians' Guild, in fact, the original purpose was to support those magicians who did not care about the world and only knew how to concentrate on the study of magic. Compared to those magicians who serve various forces, or run around all day on adventures, it is obvious that this kind of magician who concentrates on the study of magic has contributed more to the development of magic. Although they can't make money on their own, and they can't even go out to fight for the profits of the Magician Guild, the beneficiaries of each of their research results are all magicians.
It's just that now, no one seems to remember the purpose of the establishment of the Wizards' Guild. One by one, the magician unions have become like those local forces, intriguing and even fighting for interests.
Of course, you can't blame all the presidents, after all, society is developing, and if the union is full of magicians who are immersed in research, then what should you do if you are bullied. For example, the Garros Magician Guild has always been suppressed by several local forces, and it was even hit by the Yīn Shadow Nest, isn't it not backed by strong force.
In the early days, there was also the Supreme Council that supported the Wizards' Union, but as time went on, the Supreme Council had not interfered in the affairs of the Wizards' Union for a long time.
Since your Supreme Council can't give us local magician guilds to decide, it's not your turn to decide whether or not we are violating the purpose of the establishment of the magician guild. As a result, the Wizards' Guild became more and more profit-seeking as the local powers, as they needed to rely on profit to attract powerful magicians to join.
People are realistic, and learning what to do is not just a fight for wealth. Since you can live in the local forces, why bother to join the magicians' union and live that kind of ascetic-like boredom. Therefore, if the Magician Guild wants to not fall behind in the competition for interests, it must have strong force, and if it wants to have strong force, it is naturally indispensable to move people's hearts.
Anyway, Lin Li is not short of money now, no matter whether Apuda's downfall is due to laziness or because he only knows how to concentrate on research, the strength of the nineteenth level is also worth spending money to raise.
Gavin pretended to have just recognized Apuda, and under Apuda's blank gaze, he directly dragged him to go through the formalities of joining the Tower of Dusk. After completing the formalities, Gavin casually asked Apuda why he had come to join the Tower of Dusk now since he had refused to join any organization before.
This question, Apda did not hide it, in fact, the reason is also very simple, if there was a magician union in the Light Wind Plains, he would have joined it a long time ago.
After meeting Apuda, Lin Li asked Gavin to take Apuda to familiarize himself with the people and environment of the Tower of Dusk, and he left the Tower of Dusk himself, performed his flying skills and went to New Cloud Town, where he saw his former neighbors, and then participated in a bonfire party to celebrate the completion of New Cloud Town.
Although for ordinary people, magicians are all high-ranking masters, but Lin Li, a young man who is only twenty years old, did not make the residents of Wuyun Town feel restrained. No matter what, they could not connect the young man who danced around the campfire with the girls with the majestic magicians who dared not look at him.
The bonfire party didn't end until midnight, and Lin Li also received a lot of small handicrafts from affectionate girls, but he didn't have the heart to think about those things now.
Lin Li returned to the Tower of Dusk from Wuyun Town, but saw more than a dozen luxurious carriages parked in the small square in front of the Tower of Dusk. I don't need to think about it, Lin Li estimated that this was Gray's return, and it should have been agreed in this way. He walked into the gate of the Tower of Dusk, and sure enough, he saw the fat-headed, big-eared Greion greeted him with a red face.
"Haha, fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life, I deceived you with the people you wanted." Arriving at the room where the president was working, Greion smirked.
"Hey, what is this called, how can it be said to be a lie, it is their blessing to let them come." Lin Li said seriously.
Lin Li was telling the truth, but Grean didn't care about those, anyway, the people he wanted were here, and he really raised his eyebrows when he went to Orana this time.
For the supply of potions for the Garros Wizards Guild, Grean has not run the Apothecary Guild before, but for the people of Orana, Garros is like a countryman, and the president of the Garros Wizards Guild has never been a great figure. Especially for pharmacists, the status of magicians in their eyes is the same as the status of ordinary people in the eyes of magicians. And Gray, the president of the country magicians' union, was naturally never taken seriously by the pharmacists.
But this time it was different, and Greion arrived at the door of the Orlana Apothecary's Guild, and began to say that he wanted to see their president, Balbo, and the pharmacists were sneering like beggars wanted to see the king. But no one expected that even Grean himself was a little surprised, and Balbo, the president of the Pharmacists' Guild, actually went downstairs to greet him after getting the news. And at this time, looking at the expressions of those people, it is really more jīng color and more jīng color.
