Chapter 160: Genuine Elf Wine
"Do you know Master Nia?" Shado asked. It should be natural to inquire about the situation of the mentor, and Garner should have inquired as well, but in terms of channels, Garner is obviously not as good as Edrich.
Eldridge's father was the lord's purse, his brother was a student of the lord, and he himself had been in the mage tower for several years, so he had enough sources.
And Niya is so young, and the casting level has reached level 7, so it must not be difficult to ask. However, Edrich's reaction was strange,
"Xia Duo, what are you asking her to do? It was only by chance that I heard my brother mention that this Nia was a talent he would never be able to match, but this one seemed to be very mysterious, and there was very little information about her. ”
"Oh?" Could it be that he is too talented, and the lord deliberately protects? Or is it so low-key that you can't get the slightest wind out?
"She's my mentor now, and I want to know more about it." Xia Duodao.
"She's your mentor?" Edridge's mouth opened wide in surprise, and at the same time a trace of worry appeared on his face,
"The more talented the mage listens, the more crazy he becomes, and he frantically squeezes apprentices for his own research, you-"
"Can you?" Xia Duo was also a little worried, it was definitely not so simple to become a level 7 mage at such a young age, endowment and resources were indispensable.
If you give it, Xia Duo can understand it, but if you have resources, isn't the apprentice a free labor? Now Nia doesn't want him and Garner to do anything, maybe it's just an internship period, an adaptation period?
Chateau looked at Edridge, hoping to get more information from him.
"I know a mage, but I don't have a name." Eldridge looked at Xia Duo apologetically, and Xia Duo expressed his understanding, after all, the apprentice gossip official mage itself has a certain risk.
Edrich continued,
"As long as that mage receives any apprentice, he will be squeezed like crazy, I heard that there was once a well-endowed mage who gave him an apprentice, and then because of an experimental error, he lost his ability to cast spells, and finally had to leave the mage tower."
"And that kind of thing?" Xia Duo was surprised, he had never heard of this before.
"Generally, accidents are rare, and most instructors let the apprentices do some tedious preparations, and the actual experiment will not involve the apprentice, after all, participating in the experiment itself is a rare knowledge."
"What about teaching? How long is a lesson in a week? Do you have any questions? Xia Duo asked again.
"The lecture depends entirely on the mood, usually once a week, and if you answer questions, you need to work for the tutor in exchange." Compared to Edrich's, Nia didn't seem to be the kind of oppressive mentor, and her Tuesday Q&A didn't say anything.
This made him feel a little better, but this is just the beginning, and I don't know what will happen next!
"That's right!" Edrich suddenly remembered something,
"I know someone might know about Master Nia!" Xia Duo hurriedly asked,
"Who?"
"It's also a student of Lord Darao, a mage named Cecili, the lord only has two female students, and Mage Cecily must know more than my brother."
"......" Xia Duo rolled his eyes, if this is the case, then he might as well ask Mentor Nia directly, he just wants to inquire quietly through a distant channel.
There was no information from Edritch who wanted to know about it, so Xia Duo did not prepare to linger, and after a few pleasantries, he took his leave.
After returning home, Xia Duo was in the reception room, calculating the spell structure and elements of [Steam Ray] through arcane geometry, while waiting for lunch to be delivered.
The first time he enjoyed the food delivery service, Xia Duo was quite looking forward to it, and when he made reservations for lunch and dinner in the morning, he didn't mention what he needed, and he didn't know what he would deliver.
Soon, a crisp alarm woke him up from the arcane world, and he quickly opened the door, and an apprentice holding a lunch box stood outside.
"Your lunch, my lord." Xia Duo hummed, took the lunch box, and without saying much, he closed the door directly.
Back in the room, Xia Duo couldn't wait to open the sea of meals, which was not much different from the lunch in the apprenticeship stage, a piece of meat, two pieces of bread, a lettuce leaf, and the only difference was that there was an extra bottle of wine in it.
"Genuine elf wine!" Xia Duo immediately thought of what this might be, the transparent glass bottle, the amber liquor, and the faint scent of apple before the cork could be opened.
When the cork was removed, the fragrance disappeared, and instead of taking the wine glass, Xia Duo just took a sip directly into the bottle.
One word –
"Cool"! Two words –
"Very cool"! The alcohol content of this wine is even worse than that of the inferior version drunk by the apprentices, and there is almost no wine taste in the mouth, only the natural apple fragrance.
This fragrance does not only act on the body, just a sip, Xia Duo seems to be in the quiet forest, surrounded by everything, singing for him.
He felt that his spirit had also been baptized, and his whole person was much more transparent! It's just that how can such a good wine be enough in one sip?
One bite, one more bite! When Xia Duo felt that something was wrong, this bottle of wine had already been drunk.
"Damn! Don't tell me this isn't available for everyone! After asking Taling, Xia Duo was completely wilted, this bottle of wine was his share of a month, if he wanted more, then naturally he would need more gold coins!
100 gold coins per bottle, and a limited amount! Xia Duo dared to pack a ticket, the cost of this bottle of wine definitely did not exceed 10 gold coins, and it was brewed by the Mage Tower, and the cost could be reduced a lot.
Xia Duo suddenly felt that if he stayed in the Mage Tower, he might not be able to save much money. But think about it, if he were a lord, he wouldn't let people make money in his mage tower, but would have to desperately scavenge it up!
"Alas-" Before the meal was eaten, the wine was finished, and Xia Duo had to go to the whirlpool to scoop a glass of pure water to eat, this pure water from the water element plane was extremely light, but it also reminded Xia Duo of the days on the Lin Ball, and the faucet was clean water as soon as it was turned on.
In Nesser, perhaps only the caster can enjoy such a clean water source, and it would be good for ordinary people to drink river water and well water with an earthy smell.
In more cases, even river water and well water cannot be drunk, so rainwater is used. The situation in the Savile township is fine, but the villages are too difficult, and those are the real life of the vast majority of ordinary Rao.
Thinking of such a picture, Xia Duo was full of fighting spirit again, and he solved the lunch in three or two bites, and started his previous research work again.
The 1 Ring [Steam Ray] Scroll is Xia Duo's first scroll research and development project, and once it is successful, not only can it be used to sell it for money, but it also saves a lot of money by not having to buy other scroll crafting methods from the Mage Tower.
And what Xia Duo values most is that completing this project is also a rare accumulation for the development of other spell scrolls, and even the creation of new spells.
It's like writing, and the experience of completing a book is hugely rewarding for the author.
