Chapter VIII Submission of Tasks

When Taylor returned the instrument in his hand to the steward of the miscellaneous office, he looked a little weak in his hands and feet, but his clothes were not embarrassed, and he did not scratch Taylor, who looked complete, and the steward of the miscellaneous office had a second higher evaluation of Taylor in his heart.

In the past, there were many new first-level wizard apprentices who received this task, and when they returned, they were more embarrassed or covered in dust, and even a few unlucky ones were scratched by the spikes of the poison ivy tree, and they had to exchange the points they earned from him for an antidote.

It can be seen that the little guy in front of him is unscathed, although his hands and feet are a little weak, but there is no doubt that he is one of the best new wizard apprentices he has seen recently.

"Submit a task."

Looking at Taylor, who handed over the instrument, the steward took the instrument, and looked at the dark green liquid in the container under the instrument, not knowing what he was thinking.

"A total of 18 points."

In the end, the steward converted the extra juice into two points and gave them to Taylor.

After retrieving the instrument, the steward returned to Taylor a white point card with a delicate white pattern, which was the white point card that every official wizard apprentice in the White Tower Alliance had.

What is recorded on it is the number of points that each wizard apprentice has, and as for powerful wizards, they have a more advanced way, so they naturally don't look down on this kind of point record card.

All Taylor had during his time as a handyman apprentice was a point recorder resembling a round coin, and as long as the six-eyed owl in charge of overseeing them didn't find anything out of the ordinary, their points recorder would add an extra point every day as a reward for their work.

When he submitted the instrument, he also handed over his points recorder to the steward, who also transferred the points in the recorder to the official points record card.

Taylor took the card, the composition of the witchcraft runes on the card was intricate and Taylor's current knowledge could not comprehend it, but he noticed a sentence written underneath the card.

"In the face of knowledge and truth, we must always maintain the attitude of a seeker."

Seekers............

Taylor carefully revisited these words, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this sentence contained rich philosophical truths.

Wizards are a group of people who are constantly seeking knowledge.

A month later

As a botanical garden shared by the entire White Tower Alliance, although the poison ivy tree is on the periphery of the botanical garden, it is indeed quite a lot, and during this time, Taylor has been undertaking the task of extracting the sap of the poison ivy tree, and has accumulated a lot of points in just one month.

According to the direction given by the botanical garden steward, some of the holes in the trees could extract more sap, while others sometimes did not even have a portion, and in this way, gradually, within a month, Taylor accumulated 240 points.

These 240 points were earned by his hard work, and even once on the night of refining, he was secretly calculated twice by the stinger on the vine of the poison ivy tree, and spent a total of 40 points in exchange for two bottles of antidote.

The first time was because there were too many vines and several swings in front of Taylor, causing him to ignore his head and tail, and accidentally prick his arm, and almost lay down on the spot.

The second time was because the poison ivy tree was so cunning that it suddenly attacked where Taylor stepped on, which was also blamed on Taylor for not taking out the round badge first and sweeping the surroundings to expel the vines and stingers.

He takes on tasks almost every day, and the high concentration brought about by long missions also causes him to be more tired and have these two accidents, so Taylor decides to take a good rest for two days to relieve the high mental pressure in his heart.

"I see that you kid hasn't been taking on a lot of tasks lately? Sure enough, there was an accident, right? ”

The librarian is now a friend Taylor has made in the same year, and the librarian's name is Oak.

It was also during this time that Taylor got to know Tutus, the steward of the Miscellaneous Office, and the head of the Miscellaneous Division, Basic.

Oak taunted Tyler as he looked at Taylor's left arm, which was still covered with a thick white bandage.

"You're right this time, Oak, the path to truth is full of thorns and dangers, and that poison ivy tree is so cunning that it almost killed me with its poison!"

Looking at his left foot, Taylor shook his head, he wanted to rest for a while this time, not only because of his mental pressure, but also because his left foot was injured now, once he continued to take on the task, he would have an accident because of the inconvenience of his legs and feet.

Hearing Taylor's complaint, Oak rolled his eyes and said, "This is also normal, normal, the first-level wizard apprentice only takes the task once a week, which is like you taking it every day." ”

Hearing Orke's complaining words with a hint of concern, Taylor was silent, he just wanted to save up some more points so that he could exchange for the Fire Medal, and then exchange for more knowledge to supplement himself and become stronger.

He just wants to be bitter and then sweet, work hard for a while first, and then get his due reward, and then devote himself to research and becoming stronger.

Maybe it's an old man, Oak could see Taylor's thoughts at a glance, and he didn't interfere, because every great wizard is a very assertive being.

This path may be dangerous and there may be losses, but they will still seriously implement their ideas and pursue their own path and truth.

"How many points do you have now?"

"240 points."

"That's not almost, do your best, boy."

"How old are you, how old am I, can't you let a young man get a discount?"

"Then I would like to advise you to respect an old fellow like me."

………………………………

"Failed again, that old man is really strict enough."

After returning to his room, sitting down at his desk, spreading out the notebook of flame knowledge that had been densely packed with notes and notes, and after feeling a sigh in his heart, Taylor continued to devote himself to his own imagination, deduction and analysis of flame knowledge.

Almost every day, he would run to the apprentice's library and argue with the librarian Orc, trying to suppress the number of points from the Flame Medal.

This is not just to take advantage of something, but also a kind of adjustment to life, after all, there is no network in this wizarding world now, there is no video, maybe powerful wizards have unfathomable spiritual strength, can maintain them to study and experiment for a long time in weeks, but at present, Taylor can't do this, he must find something to relax his mind.

Blindly mixing with the knowledge of fire, magic, and spiritual power will only make his budding wizard knowledge system more and more disordered.
