Chapter 037: Skayas City
After a few days of recuperation, Ryan's injuries have healed, and the wounds on his body have formed scabs, just waiting to fall.
Upon arriving in Skayas, Ryan didn't take a closer look at the city.
According to the agreement of the mercenary mission, the caravan needs to be escorted to the shop in Skayas City, and the mercenary mission is considered to be over. So no one wants to be in trouble at this last minute, even though it's now in the city, and there will be no robbers to rob it.
Soon arrived at the store, and this time the mercenary mission was over.
According to the agreement of the mercenary mission, Ryan of the level 1 mercenary can only receive a salary of 80 silver coins. But Ryan, who saved the entire caravan during the escort, is still looking forward to receiving the reward of 20 gold coins that the master said before.
However, after defeating the bandits, Ryan was really embarrassed to bring up this matter to the boss in order to maintain his glorious heroic image, and could only hope that the boss would take the initiative to reward him.
Fortunately, the master is more generous, and in addition to paying everyone the salary they deserve, he will also give everyone a reward of 1 gold coin. As for Ryan, the boss secretly gave him a reward of 20 gold coins.
This made Ryan happy, and sighed that the head would think about him, if the 20 gold coins were given to Ryan in public, then Ryan would have to worry that someone would meet Qian and have bad intentions.
In the end, the boss also promised that Ryan could ask him for help if he had any difficulties in Skayas City in the future.
…………
When Ryan walked out of the store, he was very excited, although this mercenary mission almost killed him, but he had accumulated more than thirty gold coins, and basically solved the problem of insufficient gold coins.
The next question is to sign up for school.
When he first arrived, Ryan thought he should get to know the city first.
Ryan looked up and saw that the street in front of him was similar to Kata City, but the street was much wider. Ryan thought about it, and when he walked into the city just now, it seemed that Skayas City was much bigger than Kata City.
There are many businesses on both sides of the street, and the layout is similar to that of Kata City, with a small loft style predominantly. However, compared to the merchants in Kata City, which mainly sell some things sold to mercenaries, the merchants here sell a variety of things, and there are all kinds of things. There are restaurants, grocery stores, weapons shops, clothing shops, cosmetics shops, everything is wonderful, and there is even a flower shop that sells flowers.
This made Ryan amazed and sighed, and it was an eye-opener.
There are also a lot of pedestrians on the streets, but most of them are young people. Come to think of it, Skayas City is known as the City of Colleges, and naturally there are many young students.
Ryan wandered around the streets, and finally realized that the difference between Scaya City and Kata City was that there were no vendors along the street in Scaya City, and it was obvious that Scaya City did not allow these vendors to exist.
In addition, compared to Kata City, the streets of Skayas City are much cleaner, and there is a lot less littering everywhere. Come to think of it, the quality of the students is much better than that of the old mercenaries.
Ryan wandered around for a while, and then began to look for a hotel to stay in.
Ryan has a little money now, and he won't live in that kind of hotel with a chase shop, but he doesn't dare to spend money indiscriminately, so he naturally looks for that kind of cheap and affordable hotel. After spending a lot of time, Ryan found a hotel and rented a room for 1 silver coin a day, the room was not big, but it was clean and quiet.
But Ryan is already very satisfied, this room is the best room Ryan has lived in for most of the past six months.
After a night's rest, Ryan woke up early in the morning to learn more about Skayas City, so he decided to walk around more and ask more questions these days.
After days of wandering around, Ryan finally got to know Skayas City.
Skayas City is large, about two to three times the size of Kata City, but the population is not as large as Kata City, probably because the campus occupies a large area.
The campus is all centralized, all located in the eastern part of the city, and the western part of the city, where ordinary residents live and do business. This is also the reason why Ryan couldn't see the campus on the first day he came to the west of the city.
The Skayas City campus is huge, more than half of the total area of Scajas City.
The city of Skayas had dozens of colleges, large and small, all clustered together, each surrounded by walls, and then opened several doors in all directions for people to enter and exit.
However, due to the large size of many colleges, it is impossible to enclose all of them with walls, and there are many walls that have been damaged over time, so that the walls of each college are only symbolically enclosed places, and they really do not have the effect of blocking others from entering and exiting.
Of course, the campus is a place for students to study, not a place for people to wander around, so there are guards at the entrance of each college. Only students wearing the academy emblem are allowed to enter, and those who are not students are not allowed to enter, and this restriction is not limited to students of the academy, as long as they are students in Skayas City, they can enter any academy at will.
The academy's approach can only be regarded as stopping the gentleman and not stopping the villain, and if anyone really wants to enter, there are a lot of loopholes in the wall that people can easily cross over.
Ryan did not enter the college through the wall, but looked in from the doors of several graduate schools, and saw that the campus area inside was very large, with many trees, large grass, wide avenues, and many narrow campus paths, and a very majestic teaching building in the distance. The whole college is filled with a lively atmosphere.
"This is very similar to the campus in the previous life! What a great place. Ryan couldn't help but sigh that he was a little nostalgic for the campus life in his previous life.
During these few days of wandering, Ryan also got to know the situation of each college clearly.
It turns out that Skayas City not only has magic and swordsman academies, but also many academies that teach various different skills, and as far as Ryan knows, there are dozens of military skills, medical skills, business skills, management skills, casting skills, and so on. Some of these skills are taught in separate colleges, such as military academies, or in some general colleges, for example, there are several general colleges that teach casting skills.
Of course, in this world, the magic academy and the swordsman academy are the mainstream, and many people will not choose other skills to learn unless they can't really become magicians and swordsmen.
Ryan chose among all the swordsman academies according to his needs, and finally decided that there were two or three that were more suitable.
Ryan's needs are very simple, first of all, the tuition fee is cheap, and with Ryan's net worth of only more than 30 gold coins, he really can't afford the tuition of graduate school. Secondly, the academy is good, Ryan in his previous life went to the garbage academy and suffered from it, and now he naturally has to take this as a warning and choose a better academy.
The tuition fees of the two or three colleges selected by Ryan are not the cheapest, because Ryan knows that there are no good goods in cheapness, and their tuition fees are within Ryan's acceptance range, that is, the tuition fee for a year is about ten or twenty gold coins.
As for the quality of the college, it is the result of Ryan's hearsay in the past few days.
At the end of the day, after some reflection, Ryan finally settled on Parr Comprehensive College.
Pal College is a centuries-old college, and it is one of the top colleges in Skayas, although it is not the oldest. This academy was once very prosperous hundreds of years ago, then declined, and then flourished again, and so on several times. The current Pal Comprehensive College is not thriving, nor is it declining, it can only be regarded as a medium level, and it is barely a second-rate level among the many colleges in Skayas City.
The reason why Ryan chose Parr Comprehensive College, in addition to its long history, is that it has a more detailed division of professional labor. For example, the swordsman skill is divided into more than a dozen majors such as long sword, short sword, thin sword, heavy sword, giant sword, etc., in addition, there is also a magic skill major, although there are only one or two classes. As for other skills, there are several in the academy as well.
Of course, the cheap tuition fee is also an important reason, and the tuition fee only needs 18 gold coins for 1 year. This tuition fee is indeed very cheap compared to some graduate schools.
Ryan learned that Parr College would have to wait more than ten days before it could start accepting registration, which was on the fifth day after the New Year.
In addition, I heard that there is a need for a test after registration, and those who pass the test can enter the college, and those who fail to pass the test will not be allowed to enter. This made Ryan feel uneasy, but fortunately, there were more than ten days, enough for Ryan to recuperate and heal the injuries on his body completely.
