Chapter 106: Map

After playing with a few new friends for two days, Jia Yi began to prepare to travel through the wilderness to the academy.

However, although they planned to walk to the academy, none of them knew the road, and there were no roads or anything in this era, and the roads were indeed difficult to recognize. It's not a game after all, and even if it's a game, it's actually going to point out a path by the color of the map, etc., so that someone doesn't get lost in the map.

And now a few road idiots have to travel thousands of miles through the wilderness, through mountains, lakes, wilderness, forests, and I don't know who gave them the courage.

They sat in Jiayi's room, in a circle, with the yogurt fruit fish made by Jia Yi in front of them, and everyone didn't speak, only Jia Yi and March ate the fruit fish in front of them one bite at a time. If it weren't for the absence of tobacco, it would have been smoky.

Chester couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Jiayi, do you have any method? ”

Kaichi swallowed the flesh in his mouth: "Right now, our biggest problem is that we don't know how to go. Since there was an airship between the imperial capital and the academy, no one has taken the land route from the imperial capital to the academy anymore, there is not even a small road, and we can't even discern the direction when we enter the forest. ”

"The college is on the east side, straight to the east. March said.

Everyone except her couldn't help but roll their eyes: "Are you kidding? Directly to the east, the slightest deviation doesn't know where to go, how to get to the academy." ”

"No, the academy is on the northeast shore of Lake Taberina, and Lake Taberina is very large, and there is the Isuvius River in the south, which leads to the sea, and we go east, and when we reach the end, we will be blocked by the Isuvius River, and then follow the Isuvius River to the south, and we will reach Lake Taberina, and we will definitely be able to reach the academy along the lake. ”

"It's not okay to be noisy like this, let's prepare first, I'll go to the association to see if there is a map to the academy, and there is wayfinding, have you all learned? You go to the other chambers of commerce to ask if anyone knows the way." Let's make the preparations first, and if it doesn't work, we can take the airship to the academy. Jia Yi finally concluded.

It's just that as soon as his last sentence came out, everyone's faces were not very good-looking.

The people here are all teenagers, the oldest is not more than 20 years old, it is the time to have a good face, originally said that they would cross the field to reach the academy, but now they have to regret it, how can they hang on their faces. Fortunately, only these people know their plans now, and the rest are like Selena, although they also know, but they are not in the same circle as themselves, and if there are future classmates here, they will not agree with Jiayi anyway.

How can you retreat from the battle.

After discussing it, Kaichi went to the Mage Guild and went to the library to find the map he needed. The library of the Mage Association, or the library, is not large, most of them are magazines that can be publicly subscribed, and most of the rest are some basic books, as well as some travelogues left by mages, as well as local character chronicles, to record those more powerful people in the vicinity and what achievements they have. Jia Yi came very diligent when he first started, because there are many basic spell books here, and there are very detailed explanations on the principles of spells, spell models, and the optimization of spell models, although some theories have not kept up with the times, but they are also good as references.

However, most of the books are not too deep, and with Jiayi's permission, at most he can only borrow books equivalent to intermediate gray-robed mages.

After his paper on sound passed the review of the Supreme Council, he got 30 points, and with this paper alone, he could directly become a first-level arcanist, but although he had accumulated a lot of points before, it didn't add up to 100 points, and he was still a first-level arcanist. However, a first-level arcanist can also consult a lot of information in the guild, not to mention that the map he is looking for has nothing to do with spells, so it is not a sensitive information.

However, he searched for a long time, and searched all the places he could find, and he didn't even find a map, and he couldn't say that, to be precise, there was no map that could be used. He found some travelogues, which also contained maps, but they were simply abstract paintings, with a few brushstrokes, and no one knew where they were except themselves. And the location is not the path from the imperial capital to the academy.

Jia Yi had no choice but to find the librarian: "Hi, Peggy, I want to ask, is there a map here?"

"Ah, it's Kaichi, you haven't been here in a while. Maps, what maps?" said Peggy, who was just reading a book, not knowing that Kaichi had been in for a while. She wasn't worried that someone would steal the books, it was heavily protected by a magic circle, and it wasn't something that a magic apprentice could stop at this level.

Jia Yi has been busy with the blast furnace recently, and he has been wandering for a few days with a few new friends, and he has indeed not been here for a long time. However, the collection of books here is not rich, and Jiayi has almost read all the valuable books, and with his memory, it doesn't make much sense to continue to come here to soak. If it weren't for the map, I'm afraid that Kaichi would have to come back again after upgrading to the Arcanist level, and when he has higher permissions and can save the hidden book.

Jia Yi propped his hands on the counter and showed a smile that he thought was handsome: "It's the map near the imperial capital, I want to see where Memphelbo and the academy are." ”

Peggy glanced at Jia Yi with inexplicable eyes, making Jia Yi always feel despised.

She stretched out her hand and said, "Oh, that's it." ”

Jia Yi turned around and looked in the direction that Peggy was pointing, and the opposite wall was next to the magic lamp, and a large map hung on the wall, about a meter square. This map has actually been seen by Jiayi, but it is very rudimentary, only a small outline of the empire and its surroundings, the main cities in the empire, several large rivers and mountains, and forests are also marked, but the edges are not clear, and there are no road signs. Kaichi disliked the simplicity of this map, and didn't put his mind on it.

Now seeing Peggy pointing to this map, he thought that the map had been changed, so he ran over and looked at it carefully, yes, it was still the original map.

He turned back to Peggy, "Isn't there more detail? This map is too rudimentary, and there is not even a road." ”

"This is already the clearest map, the map of the empire's territory made by the previous president of the association, after all, few people are interested in maps. ”

"Isn't there anything clearer? or where will it be?"

"Near Memphelbo, there is nothing clearer than inside the Royal Palace. You must know that this is the imperial capital after all, and it is impossible to have too detailed maps outside. Moreover, the map in the palace is only limited to a hundred miles of the imperial capital, and it is definitely not as far as this map, and even the mountain and water network are clearly marked. Peggy said.

Jia Yi pursed his lips slightly, this so-called mountain range is mainly a high Kulun mountain range, and the water network is two big rivers, and there are no more subtle ones, with this map, can you go to the academy?

Jia Yi still didn't give up, and continued to ask: "Then when there was no airship before, how did the mages of the imperial capital come and go to the academy?

Peggy said: "That was a few decades ago, when there would be a mage with the students to the academy, and the mage's words everyone would go there together, and there would be a caravan leading to the academy, just go together, there will always be a way to know." It's just that since there was an airship from the imperial capital to the academy, this road has been abandoned for decades, and it has long been submerged in weeds and forests. ”

Jia Yi sighed in disappointment, but still thanked Peggy, and praised at the same time: "Thank you Peggy, I didn't expect you to know so much about these things." ”

"Of course, I'm from the Imperial Capital. Peggy looked arrogant.

Well, the gossip of the people of the imperial capital is famous.

Jia Yi went to the hall to buy a large piece of parchment, and began to copy the map on the wall, although this map was too simple in Jia Yi's eyes, like someone who wanted to walk from Nanjing to Beijing with a map of China, the map on the wall was ten times more simple than the Chinese map hanging on the wall, which made Jia Yi feel a little hopeless, but it was better than nothing.

After copying the map, he specially marked the two points of the imperial capital and the academy, and then he said goodbye and returned to the chamber of commerce.
