Faced with the panda's question, the young and handsome wizard apprentice did not answer, but looked at him suspiciously for a while, and then said, "There has never been free knowledge. ”

Panda couldn't help but laugh, he knew that this was the way wizards did things.

There is a saying on Earth that "knowledge is power", and in the wizarding world, knowledge is often not only power, but also the weight that changes the balance of victory and defeat at critical moments. Therefore, the vast majority of wizards value knowledge and are reluctant to teach it to others.

"There is never free knowledge" is one of the tenets of wizards.

If you want to get knowledge, you have to pay a price. It can be wealth, it can be labor, it can be equivalent knowledge.

Naturally, the panda has wealth, labor, and knowledge—and his wealth, his labor, and the knowledge he has are not much better than the wizard's apprentice in front of him.

So he thought about it for a while and decided to solve the problem in the easiest way.

Before the crossing, Wang Tuhao had a mantra: If you can solve problems with money, try not to beat around the bush.

Why does this mantra come from? Why is it subtly different from the mantra of ordinary local tyrants? Panda does not know.

But he felt that it was quite appropriate to use it at this moment.

"How much?" he asked dryly.

"Money is useless to me. The handsome wizard apprentice replied, "What do I want money for? I want magic stones!"

Now it's the panda's turn to be embarrassed.

He had just overlooked a very important thing - because they controlled almost the entire human society, wizards had easy access to a huge amount of wealth, and money had little real value to them.

What wizards need is a magic stone that contains a lot of magic power, which can be used to absorb magic power for cultivation or to cooperate with spell casting.

A gemstone of different colors that looks like a tiny crystal pillar.

Magic stones are both natural and man-made. The two are of equal value, and there is no difference. What determines the value of a magic stone is not its source, but the magic power contained in it.

The more magic power it contains, the higher the quality of the magic stone, the higher the value of the magic stone.

Such a thing, of course he didn't.

If he can reach the Black Earth Continent, I believe there will be many ways to obtain magic stones. But in the barren Wasteland Continent, no matter how great his ability was, he couldn't conjure a magic stone out of thin air.

If it were an alchemist like Eric or Iro, he would be able to cast spells to turn ordinary gems into magic gems, or simply magic stones - this was not difficult for them, in fact they often did, and it was a common way for alchemists to earn money.

In this world, many wizards often do such things.

But the panda can't do that, he does have great mana, but if he pours divine power into ordinary gems, he can only create sacred gems.

Sacred gems are a good thing, and they are very popular when used in alchemy, and they can add positive effects such as "protection", "healing", and "blessing" to items.

But...... In the wizarding world, this gem is not popular.

The background of the wizarding world is very strange, here, the clergy who represent justice and morality are ostracized by the wizards, and once discovered, they are immediately attacked by the wizards, and even slaughtered. In order to eliminate a priest, wizards can kill all the people of a village without hesitation.

And the lords of mortals...... Of course, they all listen to the wizards.

Under this brutal encirclement, the clergy system has not developed at all in this world, and has no influence at all.

On the contrary, once there are priests, it is often followed by a bloody storm.

The Sacred Gem contains a powerful divine power, and anyone who knows even a little about the priesthood will recognize what it is.

Pandas don't want to get in trouble.

Although he is not afraid of trouble, he ...... Even if you want to get into trouble, at least you have to wait until you reach the Black Earth Continent.

From the Wasteland Continent to the Black Earth Continent, there is a vast ocean in between, and there are all kinds of dangerous natural disasters in the sea, as well as terrifying sea beasts.

With the strength of the panda, natural disasters and sea beasts can't do anything to him, but he doesn't want to swim across the ocean with his hands and feet!

Therefore, the sacred gem must not be taken out.

Thinking of this, he sighed and said, "I don't have a magic stone...... In terms of labor, I don't think you need any help. So, I'll trade knowledge for that. ”

The wizard apprentice smiled: "No wizard would refuse an exchange of knowledge. ”

"What kind of knowledge do you want?" asked Panda, "give me some direction." Or...... Shall I say something at will?"

The wizard apprentice immediately shook his head and said, "Of course I have to ask about what I'm interested in first...... Do you know how to strengthen your body?"

Of course, Panda does, but he's not sure if his approach will work on the other side.

“...... Does exercise count?" he asked, "I know some exercises that work. ”

The wizard apprentice shook his head: "I also know a lot about the knight's breathing method, the knight's exercise method, etc." But I'll wait until the potions don't work...... Once these methods are used, resistance develops. I don't want to weaken the effect of my precious potions!"

Panda was stunned for a moment, contacted Heyin through a private chat, and got a definite answer.

Almost all of the magic potions that strengthen the body are poisonous, and their essence is to stimulate the human body and stimulate its potential through the right toxins. And if a person strengthens his body through exercise, he will have a certain ability to resist poisons - obviously, this is contrary to the goal of the potion.

The wonderful thing is that the enhancement potions in the wizarding world do not weaken each other unless they are of the same series, just like - the potential stimulated by different potions comes from different parts of the body.

"This is an interesting research topic. Kazune said to Panda, "If you can, help me gather some potion recipes, I want to study them." ”

The panda agreed, but couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

It seems that he needs to come up with some high-end knowledge in exchange for the knowledge he needs......

After thinking for a while, the panda said, "I know a few ruins, are you interested?"

"Ruins?" the apprentice wizard looked interested, "where exactly, when is the ruins, and how dangerous are they?"

The panda asked Heyin, and after a while, replied, "It's about two weeks away from here, and it's about two weeks by carriage." I can't say exactly where it is right now. Time should be at the end of the Holy Broken, and the danger level is ...... Anyway, I went in, I didn't die, I came out alive. ”

This time, the wizard apprentice thought for a long time, and finally nodded.

"Well, I'm willing to make this deal!"

"That's not going to work. Panda smiled, and now it was his turn to gain the upper hand, "The value of a relic that only a few people know is much more valuable than some well-known knowledge, and you have to make up the difference." ”
