Arcane Lord

Chapter 20 Transaction

He went back to his dormitory first, took a wooden wine glass and filled half a cup of warm water (about 500 ml) in the whirlpool in the bathroom. After that, Xia Duo took the wine glass in one hand and the bread in the other, and looked for Dean's dormitory while eating.

02163 is Dean's dormitory number, and Xia Duo's is 02404. The distance is not far.

On the other hand, the densely packed doors on both sides of the circular corridor were a bit strange, so Xia Duo subconsciously speeded up his pace.

"02163, this is it."

The door was closed. Xia Duo knocked on the door first, but no one answered. Xia Duo did not rush in directly, but ate and waited outside the door.

At this time, many apprentices had returned to the dormitory. When passing by Xia Duo, only a few looked at it with doubts, but they did not stop to ask. Most of them did not even look at it, as if It's like Chateau doesn't exist.

What a group of people who are extremely sensible and self-disciplined!

Xia Duo sighed in his heart, if the school before his time travel had such an atmosphere, it would be simply terrible.

Although Xia Duo does not believe that so many people can go against their nature of pleasure, the facts are here——

There is no intrigue, no framing of each other, no mutual friendship, and interpersonal relationships are extremely indifferent.

Are the official mages above also like this?

This is indeed the case for several official mages that Xia Duo has dealt with, such as Master Leonard, the two mages at the registration office and the material application office, but he has also seen the collective carnival scene of the mages during the Midsummer Festival, which is really shocking. It’s hard to understand!

Obviously, mages have their own set of living and social rules, which Shaduo needs to discover slowly.

The two loaves of bread were quickly eaten with warm water, and Xia Duo was mostly full. Compared to the previous meals at Old Neil's Inn, the food provided to the apprentices in the Mage Tower was simple, but much more refined.

At least among the two loaves of bread, Xia Duo didn't eat even a grain of sand or sawdust. He was already looking forward to tomorrow's breakfast and lunch.

After eating the bread, Dean has not come back yet. A person like Sha Duo wandering around the door with nothing to do is quite eye-catching. Although no one criticized him, there was obvious disdain in their eyes when they passed by.

However, Dean was the only one who could be considered an acquaintance at the moment, and Sha Duo had to bite the bullet and continue to wait. Before today, he had never felt guilty about waiting.

Sure enough, the environment can affect people the most!

Fortunately, he didn't have to wait too long. Xia Duo saw Dean from a distance. His features were quite obvious. He had fiery red hair, which was quite rare in the mage tower.

And Dean also found Xia Duo waiting at the door of his dormitory. He could no longer hide the look of shock on his face, and immediately walked quickly towards Xia Duo, with a hint of jealousy in his tone——

"Xia Duo, we meet again. I didn't expect you to be a real apprentice."

Seeing Dean again, hearing Dean's tone again, and the atmosphere in the mage tower he had seen before, Sha Duo felt at ease and became more certain about his previous thoughts.

"Dean, we meet again, shall we chat outside this door?"

"Oh, please come in."

Dean opened the door and invited Sha Duo to come in. The layout of Dean's dormitory was the same as Sha Duo's own, with one bedroom and one bathroom. After entering, Dean gave up the only chair to Sha Duo.

"Please take a seat."

Dean seemed a little reserved. He sat down on the edge of the bed and asked, "Xia Duo, what do you want from me? I got that box of matches through a fair transaction. You can report it to the police." It’s useless to give it to Master Mage.”

"Don't worry, I'm not here to ask you for matches. The matches are already yours."

Sha Duo smiled bitterly in his heart. He didn't expect that Dean's attitude would change just because his name was added to the mage's robe. But it just so happened that Xia Duo revealed his purpose.

"You should know that I am not familiar with Nese writing now. I would like to ask you to give me some guidance. In exchange, I can help you ask questions to the mage."

Yes, Dean is the lowest level in the mage tower, a pure tool that no one even cares about his name. When he first saw the mage robes on different apprentices, some had names and some didn't, Sha Duo had a vague idea of ​​this in his mind. idea.

Deal with Dean.

It doesn't matter that Xia Duo currently has no money. All he has is the official apprenticeship status that Mu Yan provided him. This status allows him to ask questions to the official mage who takes classes.

Of course, Dean was chosen simply because he was the first person to take the initiative to communicate with Sha Duo.

If Dean is not willing, Shado can also find other "nameless" apprentices, and the channel to ask questions to the official mage must be hard currency.

Speaking of which, apprentices like Xia Duo who did not qualify as formal apprentices but had formal apprenticeship status might be the only ones in the entire Mage Tower.

He doesn't have the opportunity to ask questions to the official mage for the time being. Selling or exchanging the resources he needs is actually a good choice, and it is also an absolute seller's market.

Other apprentices who have the authority to ask questions may not necessarily give up the limited opportunity to ask questions to others. It may not be enough for you to use!

Therefore, after hearing Xia Duo's proposal, Dean's first reaction was overjoyment, and then doubt, "Really? Is it true that as long as I call you Nesewen, you are willing to help me ask questions to the mage?"

"real!"

"Great, I have always had a question about [Repair] that I can't figure out. If it weren't for this, I would have become a formal apprentice long ago. Thank you so much, Xia Duo. I will return the box of matches to you."

Dean began to speak incoherently, and really took out the box of matches from the pocket of the wizard's robe, and even grabbed a handful of silver coins and was about to put them in Xia Duo's hand.

Xia Duo refused, of course, "Dean, you don't have to do this. The matches are indeed what you got from the trade, and I also learned something from it. As for the silver coins, there is no need to take them. Keep them."

In fact, Xia Duo did think that Dean deliberately delayed his learning progress in order to learn [Repair], but on second thought, the opportunity to ask questions is so precious, and it would definitely be possible for others to do so.

For Xia Duo himself, if he faced Dean's situation, he would definitely delay the other party's learning progress as much as possible in order to get more opportunities to ask questions.

Instead of changing to other people, it is better to try to cooperate with Dean first.

This is actually a competition of learning. It depends on whether Shado can learn the characters first or Dean can solve the problem of [Repair] first.

Regarding the learning of languages ​​and characters, Shado is still experienced. He can learn to speak the common language of Nether in more than half a year. He must have certain skills. Counting the language before crossing, he can also be regarded as a language master who can speak several foreign languages ​​(forced master~~).

The learning methods contained in modern education seem insignificant but have been verified by countless people. Although Netheril has been established for more than 800 years, it can't catch up with Shado's motherland before crossing in education.

That is really a batch of educators who have worked hard to study and get it. On the Netheril side, although there is a university-like institution like the Mage Tower, the indifferent communication between apprentices obviously cannot collide with any excellent learning methods.

It basically depends on personal talent.
