Beta is a wizarding town with a diverse civilization.

The forest goods market, located near the port in the north district of the town, has attracted representatives of different races, civilizations and forces because of its complete range of goods and a wide variety of goods, and it has made this diversity mixed together to create a unique style.

The buildings here are not very tall, and most of them are maintained within 10 meters. However, the materials used to construct the buildings here vary greatly, from the usual red bricks, bluestones, and black tiles, to the lightweight wooden planks, verdant bamboo, brown animal skins, to crystal clear ice, silvery-white metal, and even buildings composed entirely of white bones and colored foam.

And, similar to the building materials, these buildings come in a variety of styles.

After just a turn around the outskirts of the market, Zheng Qing saw boat-shaped restaurants made of wood, castle-like hotels built of bluestone, bars in the belly of big trees, supermarkets under bamboo liao, and a huge gold-roofed tent in all directions.

The building is not high, Zheng Qing can understand.

Because the market is located next to the port of the Silent River, on the edge of the Silent Forest, it is the most remote part of Beta, and is not entirely protected by the First University - even the community in Beta, which sits at the foot of Alpha Castle, is not part of First University, they were born because of First University, and First University has no obligation to keep the town safe.

Even though First University levied some taxes on the town.

Contrary to this unreliable security guard, the Silent Forest and the Silent River outside the town are home to a large number of dangerous magical creatures, many of which are high-risk creatures approved by the Wizarding Alliance.

With intelligent centaurs, merfolks, goblin tribes, giant tribes, and some ancient drakes, the town can also negotiate some principles of peaceful coexistence. But there are no such restrictions on the abundance of sapient wild magical creatures.

Seasons with plenty of food are fine, and those creatures without intelligence will stay away from wizard-controlled areas under the control of their instincts. But in late winter and early spring, when food is scarce, their hunger instincts overcome all other fears, driving them to raid towns and plunder food.

At all times, a tall figure is a significant target.

After several rounds of attacks, the residents of Beta Town gradually became more well-behaved, and they found that making their houses low and small, as long as they were not higher than the height of the large trees at the edge of the Silent Forest, could avoid the attacks of magical creatures, greatly reducing the danger level for a certain period of time.

So, by now, the buildings in Beta have taken on a very interesting pattern - the closer the buildings are to the edge of the forest, the more low and unpretentious, and the more next to the buildings of Fort Alpha, the taller and more ornate.

However, the low size of the building does not mean that the layout is small, and the simplicity of the style does not mean that it lacks personality. In this era of difficult to reconcile, learning to be wild is one of the important reasons why Beta Town finally survived.

Wizards from the South Seas like bamboo houses, wizards from the North Pole like igloos, wizards from the grasslands live in tents, wizards from the rainforest don't live in tree nests, old-school lone ranger wizards like to build a magic tower full of traps, and old-fashioned wizards from Europa like to live in old stone fortresses.

All of this, clustered together, was presented in front of Zheng Qing, without the slightest sense of disobedience.

"Sure enough, human adaptability is the most powerful force in the world. The young public-funded student couldn't help but sigh after the tour.

I thought that half a year ago, he was still staying in a gray city, talking about ordinary things and doing ordinary people. Half a year later, he has been able to shuttle through a bizarre world with a normal complexion, looking at strange figures and doing all kinds of unbelievable things.

This kind of change often gives people a sense of impermanence.

"It's not resilience that's powerful, it's habit. Xiao Xiao squatted in front of a stall selling magical creatures, and while checking the status of the few little scourge in the cage, he replied to Zheng Qing seriously: "...... When you get into the habit, you naturally lose the feeling of not being fit. And this is not part of the power ...... It's the rule. ”

"Rules and power are not contradictory. Zheng Qing subconsciously retorted.

Dr. Xiao let out a skeptical snort with his nose, but he did not continue to dwell on this issue with Zheng Qing.

Most of his attention now was focused on the cage in front of him.

To be exact, the little scourge in the cage.

Scourges are a very typical fire-eating magical creature, unlike fire-eating creatures like dragons or fire-eating beasts, which can eat people and flesh-eaters, Scourge only eats fire, and at best it is fueled by burning charcoal and oil. And their excrement is also a flame, but unlike when they enter it, the flame has lost most of its heat by the time it is excreted by them.

For example, the entrance is blue, and the exit may be white, the entrance is yellowish-white, and the exit is about orange-red, and the entrance is orange-red, and the exit is about purple-black, depending on the fire, and so on.

But overall, the more powerful the scourge, the more demanding the flames are consumed.

So most of the time, this magical creature lives in the depths of the crater, and rarely appears on the edge of the Silent River. Especially now that it's late winter, the whole of nature is very unkind to this creature.

The few little scourge in front of him were estimated to be only a few months in size, and they could only lick the purple-black residual flames on the surface of a few pieces of charcoal, and they were dying. This made Zheng Qing quite unbearable.

Of course, just because he can't bear it doesn't mean that he has to be kind enough to buy these little guys back.

Regardless of the lion that peddler of magical creatures when he saw the obvious first-class temperament of the three young wizards, it was a big problem to buy the scourge back and where to raise it, and how to raise it.

Taking responsibility without any preparation is actually irresponsible.

Zheng Qing thought to himself that he was still a person in charge.

Therefore, he will not buy it, and he does not recommend Xiao Xiao to buy it.

"Just take a look, are you really going to buy it?" Noticing that Dr. Xiao had been squatting in front of this cage for a little longer, Zheng Qing couldn't help but tug at his back collar: "We haven't bought all the medicinal ingredients we will use next semester!"

"Leave him here, let's go buy it ourselves!" Xin Fat Man also became agitated on the side.

Hearing the urging of the two, Xiao Xiao didn't answer, and the vendor who sold magical creatures got up in a hurry first.

"This is a scourge with a very pure bloodline! I only sell less than two jade coins each...... Whether it's kept as a magical pet or used for magic experiments, it's very cost-effective!" The vendor in a dragon leather jacket and a fur hat said to the two young wizards very seriously: "If it weren't for the fact that there were a lot of animals at hand and I couldn't raise them, I would definitely be reluctant to do it." ”
