Chapter 247 Visit
"Good news!"
"The Kingdom's army has won a glorious victory in the colonies of the New World!"
Newsboys in ill-fitting work clothes and suspenders ran through the streets with high-pitched voices.
Fang Xian looked at himself.
The blue and white striped shirt and black trousers are a perfect outfit for the season in the coastal city of Ferencster.
The sun shines down, bringing with it a hint of heat.
He felt in his trouser pocket and pulled out a coin: "Give me a newspaper!"
The newsboy took the coin. It was a typical iron coin of the Kingdom of Senburg. It was black in color, with the king's head on the front and a crown on the back.
Above iron coins, there are the higher-level silver thaler and gold fishe. Recently, the kingdom has also trialed paper money in some small areas, but it must be said that the power of tradition is strong, and people's acceptance of paper money is obviously not as high as traditional metal currency, even foreign currency.
Fang Xian took the newspaper and frowned as he looked at the ink on his hand.
Because he inherited Daniel's memory, he not only knew the common language of the Senburg Kingdom, but also the mysterious language and ancient language that only wizards would study, so it was naturally no problem for him to understand the text.
Looking at the newspaper at this moment, the information on it made him stunned: "New World, Colonies?"
In my mind, I quickly recalled the relevant information .
"In this world, the Kingdom of Senburg, the Silver Eagle Federation, and the Narnias Empire are all located in the Old World... The New World can only be reached by crossing the deep sea and sailing on the ocean. Since more than 300 years ago, many countries in the Old World have unanimously agreed to end the civil war and put more resources into developing the New World... But until now, the New World has not been fully explored. It is like an endless treasure. There is no specific map leaked. It is highly confidential, which is a bit strange..."
While reading the newspaper, Fang Xian bought a fish sandwich from a roadside stall.
Although the most common fish are used , the fish meat is crushed and stirred thoroughly, mixed with breadcrumbs and the like to create a crispy texture when fried. Add bread, salad dressing, and vegetables, and it still satisfies the stomach's needs well.
"Well... Daniel doesn't even have a silver thaler in his pocket. He is simply a poor fellow..."
'It seems that the pressure you are under during this period, in addition to your studies, is also due to your debts?'
Fang Xian narrowed his eyes.
He felt that there was something more complicated behind this matter.
"No matter what, we have to face it!"
Fang Xian came to the outside of a building.
Looking up, you can see the center of the building, an ivory-like white tower.
"Subordinate to the Tower of Wisdom Sages, the Mysterious Academy!"
He murmured and recited the place where his original incarnation had studied for six years.
The Tower of Wisdom is a transnational organization of scholars whose primary goal is to promote the development of wisdom. It is highly respected and has branches in all major countries. Of course, it is inevitably influenced by local factors.
The Ferenster Mysterious Academy only recruits students of appropriate age from the Kingdom of Senburg.
Daniel Roland, after being diagnosed with good talent, still paid a high price to study here.
Fang Xian walked into the gate, paused briefly in the European-style square and botanical garden, and soon came to a black building.
The path was blocked by a pitch-black fence, with morning glory vines entwined on its surface.
Fang Xian stretched out his hand, and a trace of mysterious power surged. This was the most basic application, and even [Despicable Tao] could do it easily.
The next moment, the morning glory on the vine slowly bloomed, a bud opened, and a somewhat puzzled voice came out: "Who?"
"Teacher, I'm Daniel Roland!"
Fang Xian answered softly.
Snap!
The next moment, the iron fence burst open, revealing the laboratory behind it.
Fang Xian walked in and found an old man in a black robe with a stern face. He bowed and said, "Teacher Hermann!"
"I heard that you went to the black market to buy ritual aids of unknown origin in order to try to advance?"
Master Hermann glanced at Fang Xian with some scrutiny.
He did not see whether Fang Xian succeeded or not. After all, the mysterious power of this world was very hidden. If it was not exposed actively, it would be difficult to see anything unless the difference in rank was too great .
Moreover, although the ladder of [Ancient Bronze] can be climbed by obtaining mysterious powers in various ways, mages prefer to obtain the blessing of mysterious power from animal and plant materials, from the world itself, and from certain pure concepts. The most common way is to drink potions.
Because doing so is the most free and will not be interfered with in any way.
The most repulsive thing is to pray to unknown beings through sacrifice. Even if you advance, you will lose the most precious free will.
In Herman's opinion, Daniel's behavior was tantamount to destroying his own future.
However, this student was very stupid and seemed to have no future at all.
"Yes, mentor, I successfully climbed the second step, I just changed the path!" Fang Xian replied softly.
“This is normal!”
When Herman heard the news of Daniel's success, his expression eased slightly: "I'm sorry that you can't continue to climb the Mage's Tower..."
Today's mysterious world has several most common and widespread systems.
Different systems and paths are different towers.
The most famous ones are the 'Mage's Tower' and the 'Warrior's Tower'!
One is the orthodox spellcaster system, and the other is more inclined to the physical side, where the extraordinary people chosen occupy the mainstream of the mysterious world.
The reason is that every step has been climbed by predecessors, leaving behind valuable experience and lessons, and clear goals.
Other roads may not be the same.
It’s like a broken tower. When you reach the third or fourth step, you find that there is no way to go forward, so you have to change the route, which consumes a lot of time and energy, and you may not succeed!
“What channel did it transfer to?”
Hermann asked.
"Warlock!" Fang Xian gently uttered the answer, and two layers of light patterns appeared on his forehead.
"Congratulations, the newly promoted Ancient Bronze!" Herman nodded. "You can apply for graduation now... I haven't done much research on the 'Warlock's Tower'. I only know that unlike mages who study, understand, and apply rules, they rely more on their own talents or bloodlines. It seems that perhaps there is some hidden happens to be stimulated by the ritual..."
Otherwise, with the help of such inferior rituals, the hope of promotion is very slim.
Herman added in his mind, "The 'Warlock's Tower' is monopolized by some great nobles. It may be difficult for you to obtain subsequent learning materials..."
"I want to apply for graduation. Also...Teacher, can you tell me who is targeting me?"
Fang Xian stared into Herman's eyes and asked with a sharp gaze.
