Fulilian: Becomes a disciple of Celia at the beginning

However, for such insignificant minor disasters and illnesses, one can completely rely on [momentum] to overcome them.

There is no need to wait until 12 o'clock at night to refresh the system's training damage. Sometimes just drinking a cup of hot water after exercise can make you feel better.

【Ding!】

[Daily Quest: Becoming Stronger (Concentrating Magical Power): Reached the Maximum Completion Standard]

[Completion: 300%]

After receiving the system's prompt, Gut slowly opened his eyes, and his mind, which had been immersed in meditation, gradually became clear.

It’s just that the magician’s meditation is different from the scenes described in the immortal cultivation novels of the previous life.

Instead of feeling refreshed after practicing, one will feel a little tired due to the long-term high-intensity concentration of mental power.

It was as if afterwards, I suddenly lost interest in everything and just wanted to stay quietly in a corner and relax for a while.

Fortunately, this "sage" state recovers quickly, probably in three to five minutes, or "the time of a cigarette afterwards", and it is enough to return to normal.

But Gut had no habit of smoking. After putting on a coat, he sat on the balcony and looked at the lake silently.

After calming down, Gut called out the system interface and collected all the rewards for the "Daily Commission" in one go.

【Ding! 】

[Daily Task: Do one good deed a day has been completed]

【Random rewards are being drawn】

【Extraction completed】

[One Larsi gold coin has been issued to the system space]

[Daily Quests: Becoming Stronger (Concentrating Magical Power), Becoming Stronger (Physical Training) Completed]

[Task rewards are being distributed]

"It's actually a gold coin? Today's mission reward is quite good."

Gut murmured silently, and extracted the Larsi gold coin from the system space, playing with it in his hand.

Suddenly, Gut felt a heat in his lower abdomen, and realized that the system had begun to distribute the other two rewards. He simply climbed onto the soft big bed in the hotel, lay down flat, and silently accepted the system's injection of the reward power into his body.

"call--"

After a moment, Gut opened his eyes, climbed out of bed and clenched his fists a few times.

Within a few breaths, he had completely adapted to this extra power that appeared out of nowhere.

After all, the combination of both mental and physical rewards is only the result of six hours of practice, which is not enough to make Gut have the illusion of a sudden increase in strength.

The power of this kind of multiplication in practice lies in the fact that it accumulates over time. Only when the timeline is extended will you realize its terrifying nature.

But let's talk about the future later. Looking at the gold coins rewarded for today's commission, Gut couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Treat yourself to a hearty meal tonight.

Chapter 3 An unexpected encounter

The next morning.

“It’s actually the Larsi gold coin!”

"This is a gold coin that is widely circulated around the Empire. Its gold content is much higher than our Chutral gold coins."

In front of a currency shop somewhere in [Oissast], the shop owner rubbed his hands and looked at Gut, his eyes shining under his glasses.

"But I'm sorry, sir."

"After all, it's not the mainstream currency in circulation in Oissast. If you want to exchange it for Heutrale silver, you'll have to pay some attention to it. Do you understand?"

"Exchange loss, huh? That's not a problem."

"But boss, you're not the only one doing currency exchange business on this street. I think the fees should be a little more reasonable."

"Haha, sir, you're joking. Of course."

The shop owner adjusted his glasses and said, "We're in the foreign exchange business, and honesty is paramount. The handling fees are fixed, and there won't be much fluctuation throughout the city."

"Ah."

Gut chuckled and could not deny his boss's words.

However, Gut was too lazy to go to another currency store to exchange the money, so he directly pushed the Larsi gold coins in his hand to the boss.

Anyway, bargaining is just a matter of a few copper coins.

The shop owner carefully took the gold coins that Gut pushed over, put them away, and skillfully took out a few Hutral silver coins from the cash box. After filling a small bag, he added a few copper coins into it, and finally handed it to Gut with both hands.

"Sir, it has been changed for you. Would you like to order it?"

"No need."

Gut grabbed his purse and pushed the door open to leave the shop.

On the way, feeling the heavy weight in his hand, Gut couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that no matter which world it is, gold can be called a precious metal.

You know, Gut had a big meal at a pretty good restaurant last night, and the final bill only cost him two silver coins.

And silver coins like this one can be exchanged for a full bag with one gold coin.

But this value is correct. After all, even the nobles in this world usually only have twenty or thirty gold coins in their hands.

Suddenly, Gut, who was walking on the street, stopped and looked at a corner of the block.

Over there, an elderly woman was kneeling on the ground with lifeless eyes, a broken pottery bowl for begging was placed in front of her. She just sat there silently, neither asking passers-by for money nor showing her sad experience, as if she was just an ascetic monk practicing silently in a busy city.

Gut reached into his purse and took out a few copper coins, intending to give them to the old woman.

However, when Gut threw the copper coins into the broken pottery bowl in front of the old woman, his body paused unnaturally.

The old woman who had originally lowered her head also raised her head at this time, and looked at Gut with her dim eyes.

After a few breaths, the old woman said "thank you" to Gut in a hoarse voice, and Gut nodded to the old woman and walked out of the block as if nothing had happened.

Not long after Gut left, a thin man dressed as a mercenary walked towards the old woman, stood in the shadow of the eaves, and whispered to her.

"Sir, do you want me to follow and take a look?"

"."

The old woman pondered for a moment, shook her head and replied, "No need."

"Keep following, that kid should just be an accident."

"It's a pity that he was able to sense my magical fluctuations in an instant. With such talent, he didn't choose to serve my empire."

"That kid came to Oissast, probably because he heard about Celia somewhere."

The old woman muttered to herself, and the skinny mercenary who was standing in the shadow under the eaves had disappeared without a trace.

Next to the hotel is a quiet park.

"The Empire's Magical Special Forces? Or perhaps, the Shadow Warriors? Or perhaps, another secret service organization being cultivated by some other faction?"

Leaning against a lush tree, Gut released his magical perception on a large scale, while repeatedly recalling the scene of meeting the old woman in his mind.

His magical perception and intuition at that time were absolutely correct. That old woman was definitely an extremely experienced magician.

Moreover, he is a magician who can suppress the fluctuations of his own magic power to the extreme.

Even though her method of suppressing magic power may not be as sophisticated as that of Fulilian and Philen, her technique can still be called superb.

Relying on his magical detection as a magician and his keen intuition as a warrior, after double verification, Gut confirmed his judgment on the spot and keenly captured the subtle pulsation of magic around the old woman.

But Gut did not choose to make it public, just as the old woman who was suspected to be a member of the imperial secret force did not send anyone to follow him.

There was obviously a subtle tacit understanding between the two sides.

Gut continued to sit cross-legged in the park for a while, and only stood up after he was completely sure that he was not being followed or monitored by anyone.

But to be cautious, Gut did not choose to return to his residence directly, but randomly picked a road and wandered aimlessly in the city.

Along the way, Gut reviewed the experiences of the past two days in his mind.

First, he encountered an unprecedented identity verification and inspection at the city gate of [Oissast], and then today he ran into a mysterious magician disguised as a beggar.

If you say there is no explanation, Gut will definitely not believe it.

The only reasonable explanation that Gutt could think of was the birth of the "magic old man" [Celiai].

The establishment of the [Continental Magicians Association] is not a task that can be done overnight, and many preparations need to be made in advance.

Even the great magician Celiai, who survived the mythological era, had to contact and communicate with secular forces when it came to key points such as venues, construction, enrollment and dissemination.

Judging from the fact that Lord Oissast and the Empire have already taken relevant actions, Celie's actions are likely to have already shown some signs of progress.

It seems that I won’t have to wait too long in this city.

Thinking of this, Gut's mood improved a little. So much so that when he noticed a cute little girl on the street, staring at the exquisite candies outside the candy store window, Gut generously bought a small bag of various fruit-flavored candies for her.

In the little girl's disbelief eyes, Gut rubbed her little head and left her with only his back as he walked away.

【Ding! 】

[Daily Task: Do one good deed a day has been completed]

It wasn't until the system's prompt sounded in his mind that Gut suddenly reacted.

It turns out that the alms given to the old woman in the morning were not considered as a good deed.

That's right, after all, the old woman was not a real beggar, so those few copper coins could not help her and she would not gain any gratitude.

So, children are cuter.

After sighing, Gut found that after going around in a big circle, he actually came back and returned to the quiet park he had just been in.

Whatever.

Now that things have come to this, let’s go back to the hotel and take a rest. The hotel also provides meals during meal times, so let’s taste the cooking skills of the hotel chef.

But when Gut hurriedly walked through the park, he inadvertently felt an extremely weak fluctuation of magic power.

Following the trail, Gut was shocked.
