Candlecastle has a rich collection of books, in addition to the knowledge of magic and magic, it also contains countless astronomy, geography, history, biographies, novels, epics, heterogeneous knowledge, and so on. And, in keeping with the tradition of respecting knowledge, there are many prophets, scholars, and scholars who have worked tirelessly to collect and organize countless books, adding to the number of books in Candlecastle every day.

Everyone who walks into the library of Candlecastle will be solemnly admonished: "Anyone who destroys knowledge, whether with ink, fire, or sword, will bring about his own destruction." Here, books are more important than human life. ”

Dugu Feng is also very interested in the knowledge here, Candle Castle is a fortunate neutral place, although it has encountered many challenges since its establishment, but it has miraculously survived many major historical events. In some ways, this is actually a safer haven than famous cities such as Silvermoon City and Deep Water City.

"Sister Aelita, aren't you going to transcribe some books to take home? I've heard you're going to open a magic academy at Baldur's Gate, don't you need a magic book to expand your school's collection? ”

Aimeng followed Dugufeng's side, watching Dugufeng pick up a book casually as if he was looking at a flower, flip through it at random, and then put it down casually, and couldn't help but look bitter. She knew that a powerful legend like the killing princess Aelita had the ability to remember, and the books they read would not be forgotten, and they didn't need to copy and take them away.

It's just that in this way, Aelita is convenient, but she doesn't make much extra money as a guide - as the default unspoken rule of Candle Castle, as long as every guest accompanied by the guide copies the book, the guide will get a certain commission, which is also the reason why the guide has become a profession that the apprentices in the candle castle are actively striving for.

"What, it takes two hundred gold coins to transcribe a level 1 spell, it's too dark! Even if you sell a person, it's not worth two hundred gold coins......"

Just when Aimeng persuaded Dugu Feng to copy more books with a bitter face, an angry protest happened to come from not far away.

"You're right, according to the quotations we have of the population markets in various places, it is true that a man cannot sell two hundred gold coins - but this is the Candle Castle, sir, and here books are much more valuable than people."

However, the protest of the young wizard from the Netherworld did not cause much reaction from his guide, who seemed to be accustomed to seeing the reaction of this kind of slaughtered reader, who patiently explained: "If you are just copying ordinary books, then according to the degree of cherishment, the general fee is generally about five gold coins to one hundred gold coins per book; But if you're transcribing a spell, it's more expensive. Sir, you are a mage, you should understand that knowledge is power, level 1 spell, the price of two hundred gold coins, I believe is appropriate. ”

Hearing this conversation, Dugufeng couldn't help but turn his head slightly, and glanced at Aimeng with a smile.

And Aemon was a little embarrassed to stick out his tongue, although he also grew up in Candlecastle, but he also felt that the price of Candlecastle's books was too tricky, and it was simply to slaughter all readers as fat sheep.

"Although knowledge is indeed valuable, I don't want to be a fat sheep who is slaughtered!"

Dugu Feng smiled lightly: "Compared to wasting gold coins on copying the knowledge I have already recorded, I think it's better to pay you gold coins directly as a tip!" ”

"Ah, really?"

Ammon's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"Of course, I'm short of a magic advisor, and if you do, I'll pay you a good salary!" Dugu Feng smiled slightly, and continued to tempt Aimeng step by step.

Aemon was a little moved when she heard this, but after hesitating for a moment, she could only give up gloomily and said, "No! Father won't allow it! Last time, my brother wanted to sneak out on an adventure, but he was scolded by his father...... Besides, I'm not a qualified mage, I've just secretly learned a little tricks, and my father wants me to be a good wanderer! ”

Dugu Feng was not surprised by Aamon's refusal, although the harpists were ostensibly guiding and cultivating the two sons of Baal, but in fact they were very restrictive to the two. In order to prevent outsiders from influencing the two Bal sons too strongly, their adoptive father, Grion, strictly restricted the intersection circle of the two Baal sons, and prevented any attempt by the two Baal sons to leave Candle Keep to adventure and live before their fate began.

"It doesn't matter if you can't go now, the chicks will always grow up, and one day they will nest and fly freely into the sky." Dugu Feng said indifferently: "Ammon, you have a lot of magical talent, don't let the training of the wanderer waste your talent in spellcaster." Although it is not necessary to become a strong person as a wanderer, this world is a world dominated by extraordinary power after all, and the path of a spellcaster is always broader and more promising than other professions! As long as you don't give up on your dreams, I think you'll one day become a great spellcaster. The position of my magical advisor is reserved for you for as long as you wish! ”

"Well, Sister Eleta, thank you for your encouragement, I will work hard, I will not give up learning magic!"

Ammon knew early on that she was actually gifted with magic, she knew that she was very smart, and she even had the ability to remember (which was actually the basic ability of the Son of God), and she was always quick to figure out the difficult questions that seemed very difficult for magical apprentices in Candlekeep.

It's just a pity that learning magic requires a lot of gold and wealth to back it up, in addition to talent. Just like the price of the transcription of the magic books in the Candle Castle, magic-related knowledge or items are extremely expensive, basically the apprentices in the Candle Castle, unless they are from wealthy families, can only be burdened with huge debts, as apprentices and low-level mages work in the Candle Castle for the rest of their lives to pay off their debts.

At least nominally, Aammon's adoptive father, Garian, was just a sloppy little mage, and he couldn't afford the tuition and resources for Amon to learn magic, so neither Ammon nor Aberdale were mages.

Of course, this is a normal situation, and not all families have the courage to send their children to learn magic to change their fate. It's just because of Dugufeng and some other people's troubles, Ge Li'an always refuses all kinds of "well-wishers" to help, or makes the two sons of Baal have doubts and puzzlements, the gods are basically not stupid, and the talent from divinity makes them keenly aware that there may be secrets hidden behind these.

Therefore, compared with the original plot, the current character and fate of Aemon and Aberdell were led astray by a caring person like Dugufeng from the beginning.
