Inside the Wizard's Academy's Trading Tower......
A few green sè jīng, standing outside a shop on the second floor, shouting loudly.
"Get out, you greedy reptiles are just the core of the shadow wolf's heart!" the shriveled old man standing at the door of the shop was on fire. "Do you still want to sell it at the price of the Storm Lion Heart Core! If you want to sell it, you can sell it, if you don't sell it, you can find someone else!"
The sudden scene immediately attracted Raymond's attention, and with the noisy sound, the originally empty hall on the second floor quickly became lively, and many people came out of the shops around the hall and looked at the place where the dispute occurred.
However, Alivier, who was standing next to Raymond, laughed, and he stopped Raymond who wanted to follow him, and quickly explained.
It turns out that there are still many underground creatures living in the vicinity of the Hongze Wetland, and these green-skinned jīng are a large tribe gathered nearby, and they are also famous for bullying the soft and fearing the hard.
Shaking his head, Elivier sighed. "They actually want to sell the Shadow Wolf's Heart Core for the price of the Storm Lion Heart Core, no wonder Old Tori is angry. ”
Ellivier, who explained to Raymond as he walked, dragged Raymond up the stairs on the third floor, and then explained. "It's not the first time this has happened, and it will happen more often in the future. If it weren't for the fact that a few of them were the leaders of the Dijīng tribe, they would have been driven out of the city by Old Tori a long time ago, and there was nothing they provided that Old Tori didn't know, and it would be impossible to fool the past. ”
"Could it be that if they come to fool around like this, won't the Trading Tower prohibit it?" Raymond, who followed Ellivier up the stairs, felt a little surprised.
A look of helplessness appeared on Arivier's face. "Although they are a little difficult, the materials that the Dijīng tribe can provide are still very valuable, and as long as they don't make trouble in the trading tower, the academy won't bother. ”
Raymond, who was very surprised, couldn't help but ask, but the enthusiastic Ellivier didn't think it was strange, and he then explained in detail.
It turns out that the Wizarding Academy allows these neutral or benevolent races to trade, which is also a reason for each to take what they need, and the Jīng race, with its numerical advantage, can obtain a large amount of resources in the vast underground world, while the Wizard Academy exchanges the food they scarce.
In this way, although the Jīng tribe needs to make a lot of sacrifices to obtain the materials needed by the wizards, with the food provided by the wizards, the few Jīng groups living near the Hongze Wetland are living a good life, far more than their counterparts living in other places.
Raymond didn't continue to ask, this seemingly fair deal, Raymond guessed that there must be other factors in it, because for a creature like a wizard, without equal strength, then there would be no equality at all.
This is true in the category of wizards, not to mention these non-human races, where weakness is their original sin.
Following behind Ellivier, putting aside the doubts that had arisen in his mind for a while, Raymond went to the third floor of the Trading Tower, stood at the top of the stairs and observed.
The space on the third floor is a little smaller, and the shops are much less, and the operators of the shops on this floor are very bored, even if they see someone walking into the store, they will ignore it.
According to Elivier's introduction, the business here is all about magic and wizard knowledge, and soon Raymond walked into the store to find that there were hundreds of memory light balls in each store, which were neatly placed on wooden shelves.
As Elivo entered this level, his expression became a little helpless. "These memory light balls condensed by first-level wizards have settings for viewing permissions, and unless you spend magic stones to buy them, you can only see the introduction or introduction inside. ”
Raymond felt strange about the way Erivo introduced the sale, and he casually picked up a memory light ball and infiltrated Jīng's divine power into it.
Soon a text written in the ancient Torrean language appeared in Raymond's mind, and this memory orb contained a modified version of a fire-based spell, owned by a wizard named Alexandra.
This fire is a xìng spell, which claims in the introduction that it can increase the power of the flame by 20%, and the cost is reduced by 10%, which is a very good improved spell.
After quickly browsing the introduction, but when Raymond saw the price displayed on the wooden shelf, he couldn't help but be frightened.
Three hundred low-level magic stones!
"That's why there's no one here," said Elivior, who smiled wryly, shaking his head and apologetically. "Such a high price is simply not something that we apprentices can afford, if you are willing to browse here, then I will go down first. ”
Nodding, Raymond exchanged spells with him for future contact, and Raymond let Elivier leave first, while he began browsing among the wooden shelves.
Because all the contents of the memory ball are set up with strict protection, the sellers in the store don't care if the ball is artificially damaged, or the contents are peeped in.
Raymond hovering between these wooden shelves, although he could not see all the contents of these memory light balls, but those brief introductions and descriptions were all recorded by his chip, and with the increase in the number of Raymond consulted, some reference data also entered the chip database.
For Raymond, this kind of knowledge in the memory light ball, which is similar to an introduction, not only allows him to know the techniques that the author of the Dao himself is good at, but also allows him to master the detailed classification of spells, and the most useful thing for him is that Raymond understands a key problem.
Improved spells!
The same fireball technique that a third-class apprentice could cast, Raymond found that the unmodified spell was like a standard version after reviewing the chip's records.
But after being improved by a certain wizard, this spell can increase its power by a few percent, and the consumption of mana can be reduced a lot, and there are even spells that have been improved by wizards, and the requirements for the caster's jīng divine power are also greatly reduced, and even the third-level apprentice can leapfrog to cast advanced spells!
The huge gain calmed Raymond's mind, and it took him half a day before Raymond finished checking all the memory light balls on the third floor of the Trading Tower.
He could clearly feel the curious eyes behind him, and after putting the last memory ball back in its place, Raymond turned around and bowed to the proprietor of the store.
Then, under the curious gaze of everyone, he walked up the spiral staircase and prepared to leave.
