Chapter 257: The Source of the Spell
Passing through the crowd of people, Benjamin finally met the famous mage. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
With a hearty smile, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes slowly walked down the stairs and waved to the crowd, subtly having a sense of "comrades have worked hard". The mages who were originally doing their own things around also gathered over, and with a look of admiration, they greeted the middle-aged man in turn.
Benjamin couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
He had also seen the coldness of this group of mages. To be able to make so many mages surround them like chasing stars, this person's influence is a bit big.
"Thank you so much for your willingness to join me for this dinner. Finch looked at the mages around him and nodded frequently, "I hope you can enjoy tonight." When the meeting ended, each mage could go to the doorman and receive fifty gold coins as a gesture of gratitude to everyone. ”
Suddenly, there was a cheer from the crowd.
Benjamin couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead. No wonder everyone is so after him, a god of wealth descended from the sky, who can bear not to worship him?
How rich is he? Fifty gold coins per person, hundreds of mages present, that is nearly 10,000 dollars, but he scattered it without blinking an eye. This is no longer a local tyrant, this is a god hero, right?
Rich rival country, that's probably what it is.
"Has Master Finch always been so generous with his shots?" he couldn't help but ask Jack beside him.
Jack nodded and said, "That's nature." Not just as a mage, but in the entire Friedon potions industry, Mage Finch is the one who stands at the top. Half of the potions shops in the country were owned by him, and that amount of money was nothing to him. ”
All right...... It turned out that he was not only a mage, but also a boss. No wonder as soon as it came out, it was a posture of giving everyone red envelopes during the New Year.
Although he was a little embarrassed, he was short-handed and was given fifty gold coins for no reason, and Benjamin didn't want to complain anymore, so he still accepted this setting peacefully.
In the process of communicating with Jack, Vinci also walked into the crowd with a glass of champagne, chatting with wave after wave of mages, and the whole scene suddenly became lively.
Soon, he talked about Benjamin and the "Viper" mercenary group.
"It's been a long time, but I've heard that you've completed a lot of big tasks again, and your reputation is getting bigger and bigger, it's not easy!" he said, holding a wine glass, and as he said this, he toasted with several people in turn, and drank it in one gulp.
"It's all about the help of adults, otherwise we wouldn't be where we are today. Jack said with a smile.
Finch shook his head, patted Jack on the shoulder, and then shifted his gaze to Benjamin.
"Is this a new mage from your mercenary group?" he asked.
Suddenly, Benjamin also put on a standard social smile, stretched out his hand, and said, "Hello, my name is Benjamin, and I am a new mage to Riley City, and it is a pleasure to meet you." ”
Finch raised an eyebrow, also stretched out his hand, and shook Benjamin: "It turns out to be a new friend, welcome to Riley City." If you encounter any difficulties, just come to me, I will definitely help if I can. ”
Hearing this, Benjamin smiled again and said, "Thank you for your kindness, I just came here, and I am not familiar with many things, and I am still slowly groping." I will definitely go to you if there is a need. ”
Faced with this golden-covered "God of Wealth" Mr. Benjamin did not really want to ask him for help.
It's true that he needs money and spells, but he has hands and feet, and it's not that he can't earn them. For some reason, he felt that this Finch mage was more like a symbol of superiority than a real-world person. Even if there is a problem, Benjamin asks Jack on the side more, which feels more reliable.
And after such a pleasantries, Finch, a busy man, would definitely not stay long, walked away with his wine glass, and continued to talk with other mages.
As a result, everyone's attention returned to themselves. Benjamin turned his head, looked at a few people from the "Viper" mercenary group, shrugged his shoulders and smiled.
"Vench-mage is such a warm-hearted man. In order not to show anything unusual, he sighed a little against his will.
Jack nodded and said, "yes." "It's true, and I can't tell if it's sincere, or just pretending to be like Benjamin.
"By the way, didn't you say that you could buy spells and meditation rules with money?" Benjamin put what had just happened behind him and immediately asked, "Where can I buy them?"
Jack shrugged his shoulders and said, "All sorts." The exchange between mages, this possibility depends on luck. Like the stronghold of the Mage Freemasons in Riley City, there are also some spells, and the price is relatively cheap, but they really have very few spells there, so don't force anything. ”
Hearing this, Benjamin frowned and said, "That is to say, if you want to get the spell, you actually have to depend on luck?"
"The spells of high-level magic are like this, there are quite a few on the forbidden spell mage side of the Freemasonry, but I suggest you don't buy them, they are all pretending to be there, and no one can use them at all. Jack explained a little helplessly, "In terms of low-level magic and mid-level magic, in fact, the Mercenary Association has always been collecting. Generally, when a mage joins the Mercenary Association, he will give away a lot of low-level magic spells, and better yet, he will have to change it by completing the task. ”
...... Is it a mercenary guild again?
Although this organization has always been inconspicuous, after all, it is a fairly ancient existence on this continent, which has been passed down from generation to generation and has accumulated a lot of heritage.
"Is there any restriction on a mage going to be a mercenary?"
"Why, you're also excited, do you want to try it out with our mercenary group?" Jack patted him on the shoulder and said, "I think you're quite interesting, after the meeting, we can go and have a try." If you have a good level, you can join us. ”
Benjamin laughed dumbly.
"No...... I also have some mage friends who have come with me, and I thought that maybe I could build a mercenary group of my own, so I don't plan to cause you any more trouble. He replied.
"That's right. Jack also shook his head with a smile, and said, "It's not that difficult to set up a mercenary group, you just need to prove that you have what it takes to complete the mission." To be honest, as long as you take care of the task-related things, don't take a task and disappear for no reason, the mercenary association is generally too lazy to care about you, the important thing is how you run it yourself. Of course, if you're just trying to get a spell, you can just pat yourself on the back and walk away, and no one will stop you. ”
As he listened, Benjamin nodded thoughtfully.
He had also heard of the freedom of the mercenary association. Looking at the homeless mercenaries who gather outside the association, you can see that the association is basically indifferent. Joining the Mercenary Guild does not restrict them.
So, thinking of this, he smiled and said to Jack, "Thank you for your advice." ”
"You've decided you're going to start a group?" asked Jack.
"yes. Benjamin nodded.
"In that case, do me a favor. Jack hurriedly said, "When you started the group, you told the people in the association that we introduced you to it." ”
Benjamin was puzzled: "Why?"
Jack replied, "There's a reward." Even if a mage is introduced to join the association, the introducer can get a little benefit. You see I've talked so much, so you can help me. ”
Hearing this, Benjamin could only let out a wry smile and nodded helplessly.
"Don't worry, I'll give you your name. ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but sigh. No wonder it can prosper for a long time, the mercenary association's marketing is really good, and it also brings people in to eat kickbacks. If you have done this, can you continue to prosper?
