Chapter 41 Preparations for Travel
Ace paused, then showed a very reluctant expression, and finally said, "Okay, then six thousand five, for the sake of it being a cub, and relatively easy to tame, otherwise I would never have bought it." ”
Leon glared at Ace, his eyes full of adoration. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "High, really tall!" "This acting skill is definitely at the level of an actor!
In this way, Ace and the other three bought the gold treasure hunt mouse cub for 6,500 gold coins. Ace took out 4,500 gold coins, and Leon took out 2,000.
At the time of the final delivery, the boss's eyes were filled with reluctance. In the end, he had to grit his teeth and hand the cub to Ace. The 500 gold coins he earned could only be counted as hard work during this time.
The three of them walked out of the Warcraft store, turned a few corners, and finally couldn't help but laugh.
"Hahaha, do you see the shopkeeper's expression? He was really anxious when he saw us leaving! Ace said with a smile.
"Haha, and Ace, your expression is too similar. I'm about to be fooled by you! Fat Leon also stomped his feet with laughter.
Only Arak smiled wryly and said, "You don't know. My hands were sweating. I'm worried that if the store really doesn't sell, it'll be too late to regret it! ”
Ace smiled, and he hooked Arak's shoulder: "You say, do you want to thank me this time?" If it weren't for my bargaining, you'd pay 1,500 gold more! ”
Arak said very seriously: "Thank you, I will return the 6,500 gold coins to you as soon as possible!" ”
Ace waved his hand, "It's okay. Brother is still talking about what these are doing, this is a gift for you. ”
Seeing that Arak was still talking, Leon interrupted him: "Hey, don't rush to refuse. The three of us are the best brothers in life. Money can't spoil our feelings! ”
Looking at the sincere smiles on Ace and Leon's faces, Arak couldn't help but smile slightly. It turned out that he was so blessed to have such two brothers in his life.
After Ace returned from Warcraft Mountain, his life slowly returned to peace, but he stopped exercising in the morning and chose to study at the Academy of Magic.
Curiously, the Academy's classes will not end until the end of December, but the Academy suddenly announced that on December 15, all students will be on vacation, and even the Academy's end-of-year assessments and competitions will be postponed until next year.
"Hey, have you heard, there are a few magic teachers in the school who don't seem to be teaching at the school lately."
"Yes, I also found out that I haven't met Bol-Emilia yet, she has been teaching wind magic for a long time!"
"Are you talking about the choppy Bol Mentor? Her figure is just perfect!. ”
......
Ace sits in the library reading a magic book and listens to a group of students babbling gibberish.
Of course, he didn't care about the so-called "wave" female mentor, but when he heard that several magic mentors had disappeared inexplicably, he might have guessed it.
Thinking back to those experiences in Warcraft Mountain a few days ago, I think that these powerful mentors were also requisitioned by the Empire.
I don't know what terrible things happened there that led to such a large-scale operation of the Empire.
When Ace was a little distracted, someone tapped him on the shoulder behind him. He looked back and it was Arak.
They walked out of the library and onto the wide plaza of the college.
"How's it going? Has that little guy been tamed by you? Ace asked.
Arak sighed and said with a wry smile: "After all, this is a sixth-level demonic beast. Even if it is a cub, its arrogance and wildness are still strong. I guess it's going to take a long time. ”
Ace comforted, "You don't have to worry. Maybe after you've healed his injuries completely, he'll take the initiative to approach you. ”
"I hope so!" Arak took a deep breath, "It cost me all my savings to treat its wounds, and I'm still worried!" ”
Ace said indifferently: "My qi told you to increase the level of the mage as soon as possible, what is your current strength?" ”
"Well, I didn't listen to your advice before, and now it's too late to regret it. Now I'm still hovering at the peak of a first-level magician, and I don't know when I will become a second-level magician! Arak's words were full of frustration. He used to be too headstrong.
"Don't worry, take your time. The more anxious you are, the more chaotic you will be. Remember to let me know when you get to the second level. Ace said with a smile.
Arak looked confused: "You told us before that you have a good way to make money, but we just need to increase the mage level as soon as possible. What is the method? ”
Ace smiled, "Have you heard of the hunting party?" ”
"Hunting group? Do you mean a hunting group with a few people out exploring all kinds of treasures? Of course I know, but our strength is too weak now to hunt something valuable! Arak's face went blank.
Are you kidding? Generally speaking, the average strength of the hunting group should be at least level 3 mage, but now, although Ace is a level 3 dark mage, Leon is only a level 2 wind mage, and he is still on the verge of level 1 and 2. If three people form a hunting group, isn't that going out to find death?
But I heard Ace say, "Have you forgotten who I am?" ”
Arak thought for a moment and understood, "You mean, you helped the three of us build a set of equipment and go out on an expedition?" ”
Ace nodded: "In this way, our strength should barely meet the standard, but we lack the Holy Light Mage to help us hunt." ”
Arak mused, "It's not a big deal. After all, I can make alchemical medicines. I'll be preparing more when the time comes, which should help us with the hunt as well. ”
"Well, that's it. You can raise the mage's level to level 2 as soon as possible, and I'll try to get all the equipment ready before I go. Ace added.
"When are we leaving?" Arak asked.
Ace replied, "This year, the academy has an early holiday, so let's start after the holiday." Now there is more than half a month before the holiday. Will you be able to complete the upgrade in this time? ”
Arak is confident: "Absolutely! ”
"Great. Let's make a deal. I'll let the fat man know later! ”
In this way, the two initially set the time for the hunt.
To be on the safe side, Ace also asks Leon to buy three low-level scrolls of holy light magic in case of emergency. This is what the fat man went to prepare. After all, their family was so rich that he didn't care about the money at all.
During this half month, Ace immersed himself in the forging process every day. Due to his extremely strong mental strength, he learns quickly. Now he's putting all his energy into blacksmithing, which is a rapid progress.
Seeing his apprentice practicing forging so hard, Stark couldn't help but nod secretly, it seemed that this apprentice was not in vain.
