Chapter 29 Extra Classes
This time, Lin Ke booked for two hours and paid a deposit of 200 gold coins. Once the time came, the magic circle would automatically ring.
Although the price of renting a laboratory is only ten gold coins per hour, the magic materials used in it, including the model dolls used to test the magic circle, all cost money.
At the payment office on the second floor of the Mage Tower, the staff checked the magic materials consumed by Link in the laboratory and the value of the model figures, and found Link thirty-seven gold coins.
In the first magic experiment, Link felt very rewarding. A magic door opened to Lin Ke. Designing a new magic circle is still far from Link. At least he had to be a magician to have the ability and time to design a new magic circle.
Of course, it is a pity that Link feels that the time is shorter. If the time is enough, he should try the alchemy. Transcribing the formed magic array on the magic skin will become a magic scroll. If the magic array is transcribed on the item, it will become a magic item.
Enchanting weapons are the most common magical items.
For example, adventurers have enough enchanted weapons. Senior officers in the army do not have high requirements for agility. In addition to enchanting weapons, they often require enchanted steel armor and enchanted steel shields.
When I returned to the dormitory, there was no one in the living room, and it seemed that everyone was very busy. I ordered the meal in advance with the magic bell in the room. After the meal, Link went back to the room to meditate himself, and then went to bed and rest.
Another morning, after breakfast and tea, Link occasionally communicated with Alice. Jenny and Lewis, who were in the same house, acted as loyal listeners—in fact, they were no common languages between nobles and civilians.
Link: "I think there are still many rich people in mainland China. You think there are so many students studying here."
Link spent nearly 5,000 gold coins around, but his life was still tight. Five thousand gold coins was a huge astronomical sum when Link was young.
Alice: "Have you heard of the Investigation Student?"
Link: "I don't understand."
Alice: "The students are some students trained by certain forces because of their needs. Their way out has long been decided."
Link: "What do you mean?"
Alice: "More than half of our class are peddlers. Of course, the biggest employer is His Highness Helena. Although His Highness Helena does not charge money from these peddlers, they will go to His Highness Helena's magic workshop to work as per the contract."
Link: "So, wouldn't you still learn magic for free?"
Alice: "I can't see anything good. The contract to work for His Highness Helena will start at least 100 years. The maximum lifespan of human magicians and the Sanctuary is about 300 years old.
Moreover, do you think anyone can be qualified to sign a contract with His Highness Helena as a commissioned student? His magic qualifications must be outstanding geniuses who can get this opportunity."
Link: "Wouldn't that be a contract to sell oneself?"
Alice: "What do you think? Anyway, their family cannot let them learn magic and become magicians. Now they have the opportunity to make them live from decades to hundreds of years. Who can ignore it?
Besides, where to go to work is not a job.”
It seems to make some sense.
Link: "Can these tutors all advance to magicians?"
Alice: "At least there is no problem with His Highness Helena's peddler, because His Highness Helena never does business at a loss."
Only then did Link realize that most of the people serving in the Mage Tower were not employees, but entrusted students. Before they were promoted to mages, each person had to spend four hours a day to work to compensate for their food and accommodation costs.
Imagine that in His Royal Highness Helena's magic workshop, rows of magicians are enchanting weapons one by one, and this scene is unexpectedly weird and thrilling.
There will be no courses for His Highness Helena in two days today and tomorrow. Link sees that there are still hundreds of gold coins left. In fact, this is also a huge sum of money outside, but it is not enough to use it to learn magic.
Okay, I went hunting today. The hair didn't need to be taken care of, but Link still went to the town outside the Mage Tower, which was the magician business. After Link bought a gold coin information here, he spent some time to relieve his emotions and entered the Dragon Valley in the afternoon.
In the Dragon Valley, Link first cut off a few high-level monsters, and then used the monster's body to make a trap.
Sure enough, the flying dragon, who came to pick up the cheap, rushed down at the corpse of the monster.
Based on last experience, Link discovered that Feilong was an opportunist.
Maybe there were too many corpses of monsters, and the flying dragon rushed down five at once. Link found the right opportunity and cut off the neck of the flying dragon that fell to the ground. This time, he stabbed the hornet's nest. The remaining flying dragon didn't even want the corpse of monsters and launched a series of dive charges towards Link.
As long as it is not a sneak attack, Feilong can no longer beat the legendary Link of the half-step.
The end result was that the Feilong family was exchanged for gold coins by Link. After the five Feilongs and several monsters were sacrificed, the gold coins on Link hit a new high of 6,000.
Except for a little heavier, Link is a sanctuary level, and this amount can still be used to hold. In the common coins of the mainland, every twenty silver coins weigh one pound, because gold is twice the weight of silver at the same size, so every ten gold coins weigh one pound. Recently, Link's exercise has decreased and his weight has increased slightly, and now it is about 160 pounds. The weight of six thousand gold coins is 600 pounds, but the density of gold is high, and there is not much 600 pounds in a bag.
Return to His Highness Helena's wizard tower. Link started to add classes next week. He would not miss a single session if he had time. Although His Highness Helena would also teach alchemy courses in the last four weeks, His Highness Helena explained it more deeply. Those who do not have a certain foundation in alchemy may not understand it.
Thirty weeks passed quickly, and the New Year did not celebrate in the middle, but passed in daily life.
This is also the daily life of the magician. The point is that His Highness Helena has a long life. If she rests during the Chinese New Year every year, wouldn’t she waste thousands of days in her life?
Link, who had collected all the tuition fees, went around three points and one line between the dormitory, classroom and laboratory. In order to understand the changes in the outside world, Link went out once a week to buy information worth one gold coin.
In the after-class Q&A of a second-class course, a guy also used three magic circles to successfully integrate magic. The integration of magic between two magic circles is a failure.
This situation is the same as Link. Originally, Link thought it was his own little secret, but after this question, he realized it was common sense.
In this regard, His Highness Helena's disciple explained that the most difficult thing is to combine the two magic circles into a successful magic. Only His Highness Helena and a few genius magicians can do it.
