Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

"There are four levels of the Mage Guild. The first floor is the reception hall and a place to go through various procedures. On the east side of the second floor is the trading floor, where you can mingle with other mages and buy valuable items that are difficult to obtain anywhere else. On the west side is a pub where you can catch up with friends while enjoying a meal – of course, we only serve non-alcoholic beverages. As for the third floor, we have opened five pulpits, and for a certain fee, you can rent one to promote your academic achievements, original magical theories......" the young man gushed to Gordon.

"I see that there are only three layers in the Master Guild, where is the fourth layer you are talking about?"

"Oh, the fourth layer." The young man smiled, "It's underground, an underground dueling arena built according to the standards of the second-level arena, and it has been blessed by a solidified enchantment, unless it is a nine-ring mass destruction spell like Meteorstorm, it can't shake the dueling arena at all, and the duelists can fight freely." ”

"The Mage Guild needs a gladiatorial arena?" Gordon's curiosity was instantly piqued.

The young man said, "Sir, although the mage pays attention to rational thinking, it does not mean that this group is not aggressive. As you know, the third-level knowledge forum often erupts into conflicts because of different concepts. And this kind of conflict will not always be gentle, but only limited to the scope of verbal warfare. If there is a real fire, the mages don't mind using the staff in their hands to decide who makes more sense. ”

Well, in Gordon's world, even if it is a university professor, it is not uncommon for a university professor to meet a real person in Zhongshan Park because of academic conflicts. It seems that intellectuals don't always hate violence, regardless of the crystal wall system.

After the introduction, the young man left on his own, while Gordon made his way to the second floor.

In the center of the trading hall are ten marble tables. On the table was a crystal ball, and behind it was a slab of moonstone that had been polished to a very smooth finish.

Following the young man's instructions, Gordon walked over to an unmanned marble table and placed his right hand on the crystal ball. A cold touch came from his skin, and Gordon felt a subtle fluctuation of energy like a thread of energy, connecting with the spirit.

As soon as Gordon's thoughts moved, his thoughts were immediately injected into the crystal ball. The transparent orb bloomed in Gordon's palm, and on that moonstone slab, rows of Gordon's desired trading information were immediately displayed.

It's as convenient as a search engine!

Gordon didn't expect that this seemingly backward world would have such an advanced and information-based magic device. He didn't know that the Mage Guild, a convenient and fast system, had actually been running for more than nine hundred years.

At the beginning of the Fourth Age, the war of the gods that opened up a new era finally ended, the old gods fell, and a large number of new gods ascended to the throne. The camp is orderly and neutral, and Eracis, who has just obtained the priesthood of law, order, and civilization, is one of them. In order to expand his influence and attract believers, Erasis made a far-reaching decision.

He first teamed up with Mystra, the goddess of magic, to understand the information query and recording device that the Mage Guild now uses, and to maintain its operation with the energy of the magic web. Erasis, who wanted to bring everything under the planning of civilization and order, and manage it effectively, succeeded this time. With the help of Mystra, the goddess of magic, mage guilds around the world soon popularized this device, named Eracis, named after the god of law.

Erasis and Mystra thus tasted the sweetness, and their followers increased and their divine power strengthened. Then, Kord, Lord of the Storm and Lord of War, found Eracis. This god of strength and muscle is the protector of the Warrior Brotherhood, and many warriors worship him. Through guò's collaboration with Eracis, the Brotherhood of Warriors also popularized the Erasis device.

Later, the Adventurer's Guild, blessed by Evangela, the god of travel, adventure, and freedom, also introduced this device.

Under the maintenance and promotion of the infinite power of the gods, there are now several major guilds in the entire world of Telos, which seem to have surpassed several eras. It is precisely because of this system that several powerful gods have formed an alliance, which has deeply affected the pattern of the Star Sea God Realm.

Gordon wants to buy some magic books. Unlike the large-scale magic books that circulate in ordinary magic shops on the market, most of the magic books sold in the Mage Guild are theoretical research and arcane knowledge copied by the mages themselves, and may even record their own out-of-the-way spells.

The power of a mage comes from a reserve of knowledge. And with the help of the system, Gordon, who can read and gain experience points, has a stronger desire for magic books.

Gordon quickly found the information he was looking for. A sixth-level mage named Rhodok wants to exchange a copy of Dasong's Plastic Energy Spell Experience for some rare magic materials. Dasong is a famous mage from two hundred years ago, who is good at shaping energy spells, and has an extremely good grasp of temperature control. A series of spells he created, such as Dasong's scorching furnace and Dasong's quenching prison, are still studied and used by the majority of spellcasters.

In a private room in the tavern on the west side of the second floor, Gordon met the mage Rhodok, a middle-aged man with a slightly chubby body and too pale skin because he had not spent time in the sun for many years.

Without any extra pleasantries, Master Rhodok asked directly, "Young man, what can you offer in exchange for my books?" ”

"Can I take a look at that book first? In this way, its value can be assessed more accurately. ”

Master Rhodok hesitated: "You are only allowed to read ten pages at most." ”

He was also afraid that Gordon would use some kind of spell that would instantly improve his memory and memorize the contents of the book, but he would not buy it, so he would lose a lot.

"Don't worry, I'll just look at the cover."

Rodok took out "Dazon's Plastic Energy Spell Experience". Under the puzzled gaze of the middle-aged mage, Gordon gently rubbed the thick and textured animal skin cover with his hand. A piece of information came to mind.

"Books intellectual needs: 16. Read the verification pass guò. Final Reading Gains: +1ooo XP, +5 Arcane Knowledge, +5 Spell Identification, +3 Cast Focus. Acquired Expertise: Junior Plastic Energy School Specialization. ”

"It's worthy of being a famous mage's book, it's much better than those big road magic books!" Gordon was overjoyed, but he didn't dare to put this feeling on his face.

"I have a bottle of Trace Fire Elemental Essence and a Trace Wind Elemental Essence, as well as some gems." Gordon offered his own price.

Rhodok pondered, "To be honest, I don't particularly need elemental essences right now. It's just that this kind of thing is very difficult to obtain, and it's not bad to save it for later use. As for gemstones, do you have Red Star Gems and Rose Star Crystals, if they do, and they are of good quality, then add the Elemental Essence and the deal will be done. ”

Gordon found that there was no rose star crystal in the box of gems from Mendoza: "I'm sorry, I only have red star gems. Do you think you can use white opal instead of rose star crystal? They are both gems used for spells of the School of Illusion. ”

Rhodok looked hesitant, and he didn't know if he really wanted to cancel the transaction, or if it was a bargaining strategy: "I am indeed a mage who majored in illusion, but the quality of white opal is still much worse than that of Rose Star Crystal." ”

"Three white opals, plus a hundred gold coins." Gordon gritted his teeth.

"Well, you convinced me. The transaction was pleasant, we went to the trading floor and completed the transaction in the presence of the staff of the Mage Guild. Rhodok held out his hand.

Gordon shook hands politely with Rhodok. Seeing that the deal was about to be concluded, and the magic books he needed were about to arrive, a strange guest broke into the private room.

"Master Rhodok, I heard that you have a copy of "Dasong's Plastic Energy Spell Experience......" The person who came walked into the room, and just in the middle of speaking, he suddenly saw Gordon, and his tone suddenly became arrogant: "It turns out that Gordon is also here." How can you afford to pay the entrance fee of 5 gold? I doubt that you entered the Mage Guild, did you get in through the wall? Ha ha! ”

The man who walked into the room on his toes was about thirty years old, tall and thin, with a pair of mean lips. His name is Holin Heidelbergh, a fifth-level mage who specializes in the spell school of spells. As an assistant to the ninth-level mage Ogro, he manages a magic workshop called the Hand of Ogro. Gordon had worked in this magic workshop for a long time, and he had a lot of conflicts with Hao Lin.

The reason is simple. Hao Lin was born in a peasant family, and was favored by Ogro because of his magical talent, and finally became a mage who mastered the spells of the three rings with his own efforts, and was already considered an elite class in the city. He came from a poor background and achieved success by his own struggle, but this success formed a huge contrast with his humble status, which made Hao Lin's psychology gradually distorted.

He has a natural hostility towards those who are inherently superior by virtue of their good births. If he faced a real nobleman, he could only hide this hostility and curse the other party with jealousy. If he faced a down-and-out aristocrat like Gordon, he would be able to laugh at the other party and show his superiority: "Behold, what is the origin of blood? What is the status of a nobleman? I'm still stronger than you! ”

The work in the Magic Workshop pays well, and the ability to learn some practical skills is a fat job. Hao Lin, who was already at odds with Gordon, found a reason to expel Gordon in order to let his cousin come to work magic, pretending to be public and private, and hiding from Ogro. It was precisely because of the loss of his job that Gordon took the risk and joined the adventure team to go on an adventure in the Cold Mist Mountains.

The rest of the story begins when the traverser Gordon wakes up.

Facing Hao Lin, Gordon didn't intend to pay attention. His taunts are much worse than those players in the game who explode conflicts because of grabbing monsters and equipment. He just wanted to do everything he could to get the deal done.

Seeing that Gordon didn't pay attention to himself, Hao Lin was like a punch to cotton, and he was extremely uncomfortable. His vicious words could not affect Gordon, so his eyes rolled and he prepared to use another method to strike the other party.

"Master Rhodok, since your deal hasn't been completed yet, you don't mind having another bidder. I believe that the price I offer must be higher than that of the other party. Hao Lin triumphantly took an item out of his pocket and placed it in front of Roddock.

Originally, Master Rhodok, who had a wait-and-see attitude towards the conflict between the two mages, suddenly brightened his eyes and began to breathe rapidly. He looked at Gordon in embarrassment and said, "I'm sorry......"
