The Great Sage's Tower is not in the traffic rush, and there are no special resources nearby. Even the nearest village was empty not long ago because of the relationship between the tower owner, and there was no one again.

But the number of travelers who came to or passed by the Tower of the Great Sage increased. There are adventurers, mercenaries, merchants, representatives of the nobility, either purposefully, or no. Of course, businessmen will be the most diligent group of people after smelling business opportunities.

The mall system opened by the Wizards Association is undoubtedly a powerful tool for buying and selling. Someone also came to the Tower of the Great Sage and mentioned this idea to Lin. However, after hearing that the association paid the mall system at the beginning, no one did not back down.

Sell at a sale? What does that make people who bought expensive before think? Destroy those who sell at a reduced price, and then destroy those who buy cheaper, and the Magicians Association has such confidence.

As for the cooperation to occupy the shares, this kind of proposal Lin only smiled. No one can cheat their father, and the Magicians Association is not their own father. If you trap Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu beats his son, it's just right. Lin also wants to live a small life comfortably, and doesn't want to have a rich and expensive life.

So these merchants retreated to the second best thing and came to the Tower of the Great Sage to buy what they saw as a specialty, the magic stone with a browser system. That's right, I don't know when copying magic stones with browser magic became a hot commodity.

Strictly speaking, the Browser Magic Stone can only be regarded as a magic item, that is, an item that can be used by ordinary people without magical power, and does not require any talent. Of course, the most basic literacy is required.

If the magic stone comes with it, copy the browser magic to the association as long as I Kiel. Shipped elsewhere and sold to other nobles or adventurers, you can add III to V Kiel (3-5 gold) to the price of the magic stone.

There is such a price difference because the only two places where you can copy and sell the knowledge of browser magic are the Wulian City in the headquarters of Xijia District, and the Tower of the Great Sage. If you don't want to travel long distances, you can only accept the merchant's price.

Other tower owners who own magic towers, although they can also use the energy pool to install browsers, and then achieve unlimited copies of magic stones in the browser system. But they only dared to use it secretly for their apprentices, and did not dare to blatantly sell this knowledge to the outside world.

Because of that, it was not Lin's rookie magician who was newly recruited and had no background to offend, but the high-level of the Xijia branch of the Magician Association. There were only five teams of inspectors before, and they invited a certain tower master to return to the headquarters of Wulian City as a permanent guest. Who would be so short-sighted.

Of course, the association has such a big move, and Lin is not without a price. When the news came out that someone else was selling browser magic stones, as the chariot and horse team of the affiliated chamber of commerce regularly transported supplies, the steward of the car asked about it to see how the tower owner reacted.

Someone, however, pretended to be respectful and presented an account book, recording all the merchants and the number of merchants who came to the Great Sage's Tower to buy browser magic stones, and of course, the amount of the share agreed with the association. Other than that, nothing was said about the incident.

Generally speaking, magicians sell their own knowledge, and if they don't go through the association, they don't have to pay the commission, but Lin still gave it according to the original verbal agreement. Some people may question whether it will be overreported and underreported. But what didn't have to be given in the first place, Lin gave it, and if you really have to think so clearly, it won't just be white-eyed.

In the face of other magicians also coming to earn this money, although Lin did not make it clear, his attitude was: the association sells, there is a commission; I'll sell it, and the association will also take a cut; Others sell, and the association looks at it.

After that, there was a big incident where the five teams of inspectors went to visit a certain tower. The strength and determination of the government to curb piracy have impressed those who have experienced the years of the earth. Although it is difficult to prohibit such a thing from being secretly copied to people in the family and friend group, it is necessary to have the consciousness of being greeted by the association when it is handed over to merchants for large-scale sales.

However, the fights in the wizarding world do not have much to do with ordinary merchants, who only focus on their own profitable parts. This brings us to the magic stones needed for browser magic, and it doesn't have to be a standard-sized size. It was about the size of a human fist, and it had some weight.

If you cut it into a small magic stone the size of a fingernail, and add some silver and gold pieces, it can be easily processed into a piece of jewelry. The value of necklaces, earrings, rings and other items that are both beautiful and practical in the eyes of the aristocracy depends on the IQ of the other party.

So a large number of merchants came to these two places, each time in the amount of dozens or hundreds of magic stones, spreading the forum to the world outside of the magicians. This is an unexpected change for the top management of the Sijia branch council, but they are happy to see it.

The actions of the merchants represented the Forum, an intelligence medium, which officially entered the world of ordinary people from the hands of magicians and began to spread beyond the Siga district.

One of the most direct manifestations of this is that because of the efficient circulation of intelligence, people chasing interests have also moved in large numbers. The merchant didn't have anything to say, and the other large group was the group of adventurers and mercenaries who were difficult to clearly separate.

In the past, such people could only stay in the strongholds, usually taverns, set up by the adventurer's guild or mercenary guild, wait for the suitable mission to appear, and then take the task and set off for the destination to carry out the mission. 'Wait for ten days, walk for ten days, fight for half a day', these ten words describe the situation of adventurers and mercenaries very well.

Before receiving clear information, these people did not dare to rashly leave their original stronghold and go to other places to develop.

Now that there is a forum, it was originally just a magician in a group squad, semi-ostentatiously posting news related to himself. It quickly evolved into an exchange of information between various places, and then the mainland and southwest peninsula branches of the two guilds also established discussion divisions on the forum, and the rules for the release of tasks were quickly completed.

Perhaps the tavern strongholds of the two guilds have deteriorated, and in their place, various adventurer groups and mercenary squads have been more efficient in going to places where their force is needed, solving many of the problems of old age in remote areas. In the evaluation of commoners and nobles, the credibility of the two guilds has improved a lot.

It is difficult for the two guild leaders to assess whether this change is good or bad, but for adventurers and mercenaries, their income has increased substantially, although it has also become much harder, after all, there is less rest time spent waiting.

Originally, the remote villages were threatened by the monsters, and they had to send their own people to the guild stronghold to ask for help. The two guilds wait for the right group to take over the task and then go to the entrusted village. Usually as long as there are survivors in the village, that's a great efficiency.

One of the most common situations is that when the commissioned adventurers arrive at their destination, all that remains is to collect the corpses and take revenge on the beasts. Although the reward may have been given to the two guilds first, and the guild will also be given to the team that completed the mission, the villages that asked for help are no longer empty. This is inevitably frustrating, and many fledgling adventurers can't get through this psychological hurdle.

The second situation is that when the adventurers who accept the commission arrive at their destination, they find that the work has been done by the passing adventurers, and of course they will not get the reward. Now it was a waste of travel expenses, but there was no income, and the purser protested.

The forum has undoubtedly changed the problem of inefficiency in the past. As long as the adventurers or mercenaries are willing to work hard, they will become a state of 'walking for ten days, fighting for half a day, then walking for another ten days, fighting for half a day', and there is no time to wait.

A recent event underscores the terrible efficiency of the forum.

The origin is the Wizards' Guild, the kingdom of Arava within the Siga district, and a small frontier nobleman under it has issued a mission to 'explore the abandoned mines'. A team of mercenaries who had just finished their mission and planned to return to the town where the mercenary guild had a stronghold, and the mercenaries who received their remuneration took this from the forum, which in their eyes was a task to pass the time.

The next day, this mission was upgraded to a 'Discover the Grey Dwarves' extermination mission. The Grey Dwarves are one of the most notorious of the uncivilized races. Basically, when humans find each other, they kill each other first, and then think about other things.

It's the same this time. The forum kept asking for help, and people kept announcing how many people had been killed and how many people had damaged themselves.

Eventually, a large barracks was formed outside the abandoned mine, and adventurers and mercenaries continued to enter the pit from afar; Or take the wounded soldiers out of the pit to rest temporarily. At the same time, there are caravans that bring all kinds of supplies, weapons, food, and sometimes take away the spoils of war in the hands of mercenaries and adventurers.

After a total of twelve days, after a high-intensity battle for the tunnels, sweeping away the original pit tunnels and the new ones, more than 500 skilled warriors and magicians invaded a gray dwarf settlement and completely wiped it out. In hindsight, a total of 1117 gray dwarves were ambushed by MCXVII (1117), and the number of casualties on the human side was much lower than that.

This event, in the records of the Mercenary Guild and the Adventurer's Guild, is listed as a 'major victory'. The loot looted from the settlements also brought home the people who had thrown themselves into the battle; Relatives of those who were injured or killed also received bereavement benefits.

Hindsight, it was analyzed that the gray dwarf settlement must have accidentally dug a passage to the surface world. And in the case of being unprepared, it was attacked by ground forces. I thought it was just a small fight, but I didn't expect an encounter to be played into a big battle.

By the time the grey dwarves came to their senses and began to take humanity seriously with a war attitude, they were already at a disadvantage, and they were all finished.

If this settlement had not been discovered, and the Grey Dwarves had not been exterminated, the neighboring noble realms would have been wiped out by the time they burst out of the surface. At this time, the unprepared human side does not know how much it will cost to achieve the same result.

Of course, in this case, no one sang the praises of the importance of the forum, they only focused on the heroes of this war of extermination. Several groups that were originally unknown are widely known for their outstanding performances. There were also bards who wrote poems and sang them everywhere. But such an outcome would have been unimaginable in the world before the Forum.

Another event where the forum played a big role was the ongoing commotion in the Duoduolian Mountain Range, where the Warcraft King was in turmoil.

Whenever the king of a region falls, the monsters of the region will keep making noise until the next king appears. And in the process, either because of the loss of physical strength due to the battle, urgently need to forage, or the expulsion of the loser, these monsters will break into the human world, preying on the powerless to resist.

In the past, the Adventurers' Guild and the Mercenary Guild would of course issue a summoning order, calling on people with lofty ideals to protect civilized society. However, due to the problem of efficiency, the warriors and mages who responded quickly were usually the same group of people who operated in the vicinity of the area. The larger number is the local aristocracy. But the aristocracy is a group that has more than enough to protect itself and not enough to attack.

But this time, the Earl of Sita, who is on the front line, belongs to the Thundering Lightning Legion, which shines. With the legion as the backbone, the warriors who were called upon by the forum and quickly supported the soldiers who came to hold the edge of the human world steadily, and even showed signs of advancing into the forest under the Duoduolian Mountains.

The kingdom of Huesca, to which the place belongs, even began to discuss whether to send pioneer nobles to open up new territories.

In any case, life on the peninsula on the southwestern edge of the mainland has been affected by the Forum and has become different from what it used to be. And all this is less than a year.
