Wizard Immortality

Chapter 16 Plan丨Trading Market

Vic stayed in the alchemy workshop for half a year.

During this half year.

He had only met Brody three times.

Every time, the other party would spend an hour teaching him some simple knowledge and then ignore him.

Because Brody only agreed to take Vic in, but did not promise any benefits.

There is no annual stipend.

No qualifications to ask questions proactively.

There was no opportunity to use the lab or even to observe.

Si Ke can also guess what the other person is thinking.

Gambler's mentality.

If he has a good talent and understanding and can understand things immediately, Brody will certainly not be stingy. But if he is a blockhead, Brody will not lose anything by giving a young knight a meal.

Maybe it could even earn the loyalty of a knight.

In the process of interacting with Brody, Vic did not show himself too much because he did not want to have too many relationships with irrelevant people.

If he accepted too much favor from Brody now, in return, he would not be able to refuse some reasonable requests made by the other party when he became a first-level wizard in the future.

Under the constraint of the principle of equivalence.

Even if the person who receives the favor refuses to acknowledge it, the price that needs to be paid for this favor will be manifested in other forms.

Astrologers who are well versed in divination have defined this phenomenon as the "intertwining of fates" phenomenon.

Astrologer is one of the six major professions of wizards and a mysterious profession belonging to the field of astrology.

cloudy day.

After mastering the final knowledge of Atelier Alchemy.

Vic's spiritual strength has increased significantly compared to half a year ago, but the construction of the knowledge system of fire witchcraft has stagnated.

Time is fair.

No one can transcend time and do two things at the same time.

Vic knew that his promotion to senior apprentice needed to be done step by step. The stronger his mental body was, the greater his chances of being promoted to senior apprentice. He couldn't rush into it blindly.

During this period, in addition to learning the knowledge in the alchemy workshop, he also extracted a method of making alchemical rings from the lich's life box - the configuration method.

On the surface, the alchemical ring made by this method is not much different from that made by ordinary methods.

But compared to the apprentice-level forging and smelting methods, the success rate is higher and the quality of the rings produced is also better.

Vic wasn't going to make an alchemical ring at the academy.

This can easily arouse suspicion from others.

after all.

It was amazing that an apprentice who had been enrolled for half a year could make an alchemical ring.

Normally, a wizard with excellent understanding of the field of transformation needs to spend about three years in alchemy and learn a lot of related subjects before he is qualified to make alchemical props.

Vic planned to secretly make an alchemical ring outside the academy, and then use it to demonstrate his strength, find a wizard family that lacks alchemists, and lie dormant for one to two years.

He has already thought of a reason to go out.

Life in the academy was too boring, so he wanted to go out and gain some experience.

This situation is common in Black Tower Academy.

Some wizards, when they encounter incomprehensible bottlenecks or limited thinking when learning knowledge, will choose to go out to look for inspiration.

No one will doubt it.

Before going out.

Vic placed an order at Brody's alchemy workshop to smelt all the secret fire silver ore into secret fire silver ingots for easy carrying.

Brody knew where the minerals came from and didn't ask any more questions.

Vic works in a workshop, so his asking price is very low, fifty grams of secret fire silver is enough.

Because the smelting process requires a large amount of energy and extractants, the market price of fifty grams of Secret Fire Silver fluctuates around twenty Soul Stones, not much.

Brody wanted to buy the silver mine that Vic brought back, but Vic refused.

For good reason.

He needed to keep the secret fire silver, whether he needed it in the future when he needed it or used it to practice making alchemical tools.

Moreover, he felt unsafe carrying more than a hundred soul stones on him at one time.

So, Brody didn't mention the acquisition again.

Besides, these secret fire silvers only add up to more than a hundred soul stones, which is not worthy of his attention.

Just after the quenching is completed.

Brody reminded Vic that it would be best not to let others know that he had more than 300 grams of secret fire silver in his hands, so as to avoid fatal disaster.

Vic naturally understood this.

He was willing to spend some money to smelt the ore just to make it easier to carry.

The total value of more than one hundred soul stones is enough to make some evil-minded wizard apprentices snatch them away. The next day.

It was a rare sunny morning at Black Tower Academy.

Vic left the academy wearing the worn-out knight equipment he had picked up and a backpack filled with supplies for the journey.

Aaron hosted a small party two months ago.

Vic didn't go.

Afterwards, Aaron invited Vic alone, and the two had dinner together in a good restaurant to celebrate his promotion to wizard apprentice.

Although Aaron did not mention anything about the party, it was obvious that something unpleasant happened at the party.

On the contrary, when the two of them were together, Aaron seemed very relaxed, talking and laughing.

He even talked to Vic about a girl he liked recently, but unfortunately she looked down on him.

Vic calculated the time.

This is his second year in the academy.

It is both moral and reasonable to go out and gain experience, increase your knowledge and broaden your thinking.

No money to buy a horse.

Vic was restricted to walking after leaving the academy.

However, after being promoted to a wizard apprentice, his physical fitness has far surpassed that of ordinary people, and he does not feel tired when traveling.

According to the map markings.

Two hundred kilometers east of Black Tower Academy, there is a trading market run by a wizard family. It is not large in scale, but it has a complete range of products.

Vic planned to hide his identity, purchase some materials there, and then try to make an alchemical ring.

Control muscles to change the details of face shape.

To a wizard apprentice, these were just some simple tricks, nothing profound.

half a month later.

Jinghu Trading Market.

An ugly young man, covered in dust, stopped at the entrance of the trading market.

The market is located on an island in the middle of Mirror Lake, with an excellent natural environment.

The lake water is clear and slightly blue.

When there is sufficient light, you can clearly see the white pebbles at the bottom.

The dark green grass on both sides of the lake is lush and flourishing.

Because there is only one floating bridge leading to the island in the middle of the lake, people who trade need to be checked when entering and leaving.

Two knights in brilliant silver-white armor were guarding the entrance.

If you are a stranger, you will inevitably be stopped by them and asked questions.

With the support of the wizard family behind them, the two knights were very arrogant and did not take the wizard apprentices of average strength seriously.

People who come to Jinghu Trading Market are either knights with some talent who want to pursue the path of wizards.

Or they are independent apprentices with low strength and no identity or background.

In their eyes.

The only ones they cannot afford to offend are the wizards from the Black Tower Wizarding Academy.

Besides, those apprentices with strong backgrounds would not necessarily come to a small place like theirs.

When Vic tried to cross the intersection.

Two knights stopped him in a rude manner.

One of them said expressionlessly, "According to the rules of Jinghu Trading Market, people who enter the market for the first time need to provide their name and background.

Otherwise, you are not allowed to enter.”

Going out for experience is different from being in college.

There are many people in the college, so many things are difficult to carry out and we need to keep a low profile.

But go out and gain experience.

Strength is the only guarantee of safety.

Vic's disguised ugly face looked like a middle-aged man. He grinned, made a crow-like ugly and cold laugh, and grabbed the knight's arm.

The witchfire was like a poisonous snake, burning the knight's coarse cloth shirt in an instant.

Vic didn't make things too difficult for the other party. After all, he came here to earn soul stones, not to cause trouble.

"Are you still asking?"

When the two knights saw Vic's methods, they were immediately scared to death!

Although in Vic's view, these were just apprentice-level tricks, but from the perspective of the two knights.

Such terrifying control power.

This ugly guy in front of me is at least a senior apprentice!
