Helping each other with countless me.

Chapter 484: There is a gap between each ring
Unfortunately, his move just now was too shocking.

No more bait.
Of course, this is normal. After all, those stupid idiots just now are only a minority.

Just like he said before, this is a real world after all. There is indeed no script in the real world, and some people will do some incredible things.

But after all, not everywhere is like Florida.

After all, there are more normal people in the real world.

"of course can."

If you and this lady are students of Waterdeep School of Magic, you can naturally buy a property in the Upper Town and even enjoy a discount on the price.

Seeing the two black cards, the female owner of the tavern couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

The speculation about the identity of the boy in front of him was overturned again.

First of all, the opponent is definitely not a dragon.

A dragon would not do such a thing.

Then, the answer is obvious. This is the guardian who is specifically responsible for protecting this girl.

Of course, by tomorrow at the latest, information about this girl will appear on her desk.

As a well-known information dealer in Waterdeep City, she still has this confidence.——
In a blink of an eye, three days passed.

Li Zhongren took Anna to rent a house in the Upper East District of Waterdeep City. It was not that they did not want to buy a house, but the price difference between buying and renting was too great. Even though Anna was the granddaughter of a tribal high priest, she could not afford to spend a lot of money in Waterdeep City, where every inch of land was valuable.

Of course, renting also has its advantages.

All supporting facilities are complete, including well-trained servants.

Therefore, the two people who had been traveling for a long time could finally have a good rest.

Early in the morning, after Li Zhongren helped Anna pack up, they took a carriage to the Magician Academy in Waterdeep.

He had been to the college once before to complete the admission procedures.

how to say.

The building is magnificent, but considering that there are earth magicians in this world, it is not incredible. In the eyes of earth magicians, buildings are like children kneading rubber figures.

However, this process is more like day school.

Before leaving, the maid asked what we wanted to eat in the evening.

In order to prevent Anna from being bullied, neither Li Zhongren nor she would live on campus, but would commute every day.

This is a normal thing in the magic academy.

After all, most of the students at Waterdeep School of Magic come from Waterdeep, and the wealthy locals would definitely prefer to go home and rest.

It wasn't long before the majestic castle came into view.

It stands on the top of the mountain like a sword.

This is the peak of another mountain next to Waterdeep.

The Waterdeep School of Magic is located here.

According to factions, there are eight different factions. Each faction has its own small campus, which is somewhat similar to the world of Li Zhongren before.

However, the magic in this world is more concrete.

He saw these from the book he received yesterday.

As a black card student at Waterdeep's School of Magic, he not only enjoyed all the resources, but also the spells. For example, literacy could enable a person to quickly master a language and writing, and get started directly in speaking and writing.

Of course, this spell will only last for one month. During this month, the person being cast the spell must fill his or her mind with enough words in order to completely solidify the spell.

So, these days, Li Zhongren spends most of his time reading.

Now the spell has been completely solidified, and at the same time, I have gained a great understanding of this world, this continent, and magic.

"Remember, if you have any problems, you can come to me."

The atrium is the center of Waterdeep Magician Academy, from here one can go to any of the eight major departments.

At this point, Li Zhongren finally couldn't be with Anna anymore.

Because Waterdeep has its own testing methods to determine a person's qualifications.

Anna is unexpectedly good at soul magic, perhaps it has something to do with the fact that her grandfather is the high priest.

Li Zhongren himself is a battle mage.

A battle mage is a mage who focuses on strengthening his own body.

Magical spells can be used to bless the flesh and blood body, protect the soul, and turn people into true supermen.

Li Zhongren estimated that this was probably related to the fact that he had mastered the Dragon Elephant Prajna Power at the maximum level. After all, this thing had already stretched his physical fitness to an extremely terrifying level.

"Ok, I know."

Anna nodded, holding the book, and walked towards the Soul Department.

Li Zhongren walked towards the campus where the Battle Mage Department was located.
Although they are all colleges, they all have this word.

However, the magician academy in this world is not like the previous ones where classes are held in clean and bright rooms.

To put it more bluntly, the magician academy in this world is more like hiring apprentices.

Gain knowledge by assisting the tutor.

So, why does the mentor want to train you?

To impart valuable knowledge to strangers?
Just for that little bit of benefit?

This is just like in the past life, a big country that mastered the method of making nuclear weapons would teach other countries how to make nuclear weapons for money.

In theory, this is illogical.

However, after he integrated into this place, even if it was just for a short morning, he realized that this was actually an indispensable part.

Generally speaking, there are three aspects.

First, the labor force of cattle and horses.

Mages seek greater power, longer life, and deeper knowledge.

Then, it would be impossible for him to do everything by himself, but he would need someone who also understands magic to help him complete those repetitive tasks that require a lot of time but also require sufficient wisdom.

The second is to maintain extraordinary strength.

As the saying goes, like father, like son, like daughter. But in fact, the descendants of wizards are not necessarily wizards.

At least, not in the world he lived in.

Even if one can become a magician, it is uncertain whether one can reach the level of his parents.

Because being a mage is just like math, it depends on talent.

Yes, I will.

No, I just won’t.

Hard work does work, but it only works relative to yourself. Hard work can develop your own limits.

But compared with genius, it pales in comparison.

Therefore, we recruit a large number of apprentices, select the most talented ones from among them and train them, and build a community of interests. I help you grow, you help my descendants, and if there are talented people among my descendants, they can also help you, and so on.

A huge network of common interests entangles these mages.

Third, cannon fodder.
Unlike cattle and horses, this cannon fodder is more of a wizard responsible for combat. The higher the position, the less likely they are to take risks. Therefore, it is a very good method to train enough subordinates and let them take risks for themselves and the organization through interest exchange or other methods. However, in general, the wizards of Waterdeep Magic Academy are quite considerate to their apprentices. It is a standard and cold balance. How much you pay is how much you get.

This is far stronger than the Red Robe Mage Association of the Seir Plateau.

I guess the Waterdeep School of Magic is deliberately trying to flatter the Red Robe Wizards Association. The Red Robe Wizards Association was also introduced in the history books given yesterday.

In Li Zhongren's opinion, this thing is just like the evil cultivators in the novels of cultivation. They treat every apprentice as a consumable and it is normal to bully their teachers and ancestors.

If you are caught there, it will definitely be the beginning of hell.
A day flies by in a blink of an eye.

The magician apprentices could finally take a break. As a new apprentice, Li Zhongren had zero knowledge of magic, so he was not assigned any work. Instead, he was asked to memorize the "Basic Magic Patterns" in the library.

"Basic Magic Pattern" is the foundation of all spells in this world.

To put it simply, it is like letters or the strokes of Chinese characters.

Through different arrangements and combinations, different combinations of magic patterns can be constructed and then spells can be cast.

Of course, having said that, this thing is not really like text, or to be more precise, the written text is just a projection of the magic pattern on a two-dimensional plane. Only those who can perceive magic power can see the basic magic patterns in the three-dimensional world by sensing these runes.

These magic patterns seemed to be alive. In Li Zhongren's opinion, the thing that most resembled them was a magnified electron cloud.

They have approximate shapes, but no fixed form.

Rote memorization is almost non-existent.

And this is the first step on the road to becoming a magician, and no one can help you.

First of all, you have to be magically sensitive.

Only then can you see the three-dimensional entity of the basic magic pattern.

Second, you have to be gifted enough to remember them.

There is no solution to this problem. If you can remember it, you can remember it. If you can’t remember it, you can’t remember it. Don’t ask why. The answer is just your feeling.

Fortunately, Li Zhongren had very good talent. After all, he had awakened the shared space and obtained the maximum level of Dragon Elephant Prajna, which laid a good foundation for his body from the outside to the inside.

Therefore, he had finished reading a magic pattern dictionary in one day.

In this library, there were other magician apprentices in twos and threes.

Most of them are trying hard to remember.

These are the apprentices who came to Waterdeep Magician Academy to study.

During this period, apprentices have the easiest time.

Because you don't have to do anything, just record the magic patterns.

But it is also the most difficult.

Because you only have one year.

If you cannot record more than 50% of the basic magic patterns within a year, you will be dismissed, because this means that unless you encounter some adventure in the future, the same investment in other magicians will earn hundreds or thousands of times more than this kind of person.

"Squeak~~"

The library door opened.

A woman wearing a deep blue cloak, but underneath the cloak was a set of close-fitting armor, walked in.

Judging from the face alone, around 30 years old is the peak moment in a woman's life when age and charm are intertwined.

This person is one of the vice-presidents of the Battle Wizard Academy.

Her main responsibility is similar to that of a college stress counselor, and she is in charge of all kinds of miscellaneous matters.

"How was it? How was the harvest?"

The woman's armor made a crackling sound as she stepped on the ground.

In this quiet library, it appears particularly clear.

"is acceptable."

Li Zhongren put down the basic magic pattern dictionary in his hand, raised his head and looked at the woman in front of him and said.

“I’ve basically memorized it all.”

"Ah."

The women were not surprised by Li Zhongren's answer. As the local bosses of Deepwater City, they naturally knew clearly that Li Zhongren had killed the adventurer before. On the other hand, the man in front of them should be a strong man from other continents due to some accident.

At least, her own intuition told her that she would not be a match for the enemy in a head-on battle, so it made sense for her to learn these basic magic patterns and record them completely in just one day.

"In this case, you can start learning magic from tomorrow."

"Aren't you an apprentice?"

"Your Excellency is joking."

The woman smiled.

"Being an apprentice is something that most people do, but for someone like you, we prefer to exchange them."

"That's fine, but I'm curious, why is it so easy for you to hand over magic to someone from another continent like me?"

"Be confident. Whether it's Waterdeep or the continent beneath our feet, magic has always been improving."

"If the wisdom of all our mages is no match for the wisdom of one person, then it doesn't really matter whether we teach that person or not."

"Yes, then, what do you need me to do? What can I get?"

"Normally, when the high priest takes out the black card, you and Ms. Anna will enjoy the standard seven-year resources. As long as your talent is not too bad, you can basically graduate as a first-ring mage."

"But there are gaps between each link. You understand what I mean."

"Understand."

Li Zhongren nodded.

Aren’t these the top, middle and lower grade golden elixirs in the novels about cultivation?

In the real world, it's like the other team has a 16-cylinder engine and you have an 8-cylinder engine. You've basically lost half the battle before the fight even begins.
"So, Your Excellency can complete our commission in exchange for more resources and more advanced knowledge."

"That's fine with me."

Now that we are at Waterdeep School of Magic, there is no need to worry about Anna's safety. After all, Waterdeep has to maintain its reputation. Killing my students in school is completely different from secretly killing one outside the school.

"But why did you choose to hire me? Waterdeep City should not be short of high-level combat power."

"Who would complain about a high-level fighter having more combat power?"

The woman's armor-covered hand was placed on the table, making a crisp thumping sound.

"Besides, if Your Excellency joins us, even if he does nothing, at least he won't become our enemy, right?"

"Of course, on weekdays, you are still a student of our college, and your identity will be kept confidential."

"Keep it a secret? There were many people who saw me kill someone that day."

"Don't worry, everyone you've come into contact with has forgotten about it."

"call"

Li Zhongren couldn't help but take a breath slowly.

He knew that this was actually the Waterdeep School of Magic, flexing its muscles.
