Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 557 You've got a long life

Therefore, some people whose families have some status and assets and can purchase the popular spell training methods that are circulated outside, or hire low-level wizards to teach them, but whose qualifications are not good enough to be noticed by the royal family, will embark on the path of freelance wizards.

However, this choice can only be said to be more comfortable in the early stages, but in the later stages, if you are unwilling to waste time on cultivation, it will definitely be very difficult.

But if you are willing to give up, then you will also slow down because you have less time for meditation, practice and study than others.

The only advantage is that the combat effectiveness will be stronger.

Such wizards were quite popular in the past, but the world has been quite peaceful these years!

When knights and swordsmen plus bards or scholars can meet the requirements of most employers, no one is willing to spend money to hire a magician... The hiring fee of a magician of the same level can directly hire a well-matched team of adventurers.

Only during wartime, mages who can complete tasks quickly... and fly everywhere... are particularly popular.

So when Evelyn Costa said that, everyone understood why Toronto kept saying that he had read all the information related to Scroll Mountain and mages.

Only at the Scroll Mountain can you buy spell skill scrolls, including five-ring and six-ring spells, by spending gold coins.

Magic shops outside only sell the first three low-level rings at best.

Although the mages were quite polite to their juniors, that was all they were polite about.

If you want to learn from a wizard above the intermediate level, you don’t just need money.

Although it sounds a bit funny to say this, the reason why the upper class in this world cannot monopolize everything is indeed due to Scroll Mountain.

The road to deification for the Lord of Knowledge was actually quite bloody... As long as the knowledge was dedicated to him, those who respected him could pay the corresponding amount of money to purchase the promise of this god, but it was not easy to do so.

But he was lucky in that when he showed up, the royal nobles had not yet accomplished anything, the major churches were still groping for their own way forward, and everyone was still relatively confused.

Although they felt the threat from the Lord of Knowledge, they were unable to stop him in one fell swoop due to the checks and balances and temptations between them.

When they finally understood the threat this Shennuo posed to every family and every force...the Lord of Knowledge even built the Scroll Mountain.

Of course, the most important thing is that the world will that existed at that time welcomed the appearance of the Lord of Knowledge and strongly supported his declarations... This means that the strongest gods, especially Storm and Dark Night, would never attack Scroll Mountain.

Of course, later masters of knowledge also made certain concessions: for example, the knowledge sold must be discovered, invented or owned by the individual.

Stolen knowledge will never be sold publicly.

For example, those seven-ring spells that are only circulated in major spell schools, or the knight specialty training methods unique to major knight families, especially the royal family.

Of course, he did not promise that he would give up the exploration of this knowledge... because giving up for any reason might damage his own foundation as a god. No one dared to publicly question this promise, no matter how unwilling they were.

Therefore, basic professional knowledge can be purchased directly from the Church of the Lord of Knowledge.

But for any profession, it will not be easy if you only rely on reading and studying.

For most people, especially knights and swordsmen, reading books is basically useless. It can give some inspiration, but it is not enough to understand how to swing the shield at 15 degrees, 30 degrees, etc. until 120 degrees and 180 degrees. It is a shield wall skill.

I did what I was told, but I just acted like a stupid goose.

But mages and scholars seem to be able to understand some of it just by looking at it.

Although it is definitely still difficult, no one dares to deny that someone can learn it by themselves.

This type of wizard often appears among adventurers... However, they usually pay a low-level wizard to guide them on the path of apprenticeship before they find their own direction. As for the legendary geniuses, adventurers have never seen them with their own eyes, they just know that they exist.

For these relatively free mages, the biggest challenge is resources.

Even if adventurers dig up good stuff during their explorations, they would not exchange those things for money. Basically, they would exchange them for the resources they need to move to the next step.

If adventurers really only wanted to make money, it would be impossible for them to eventually form a large alliance... Even if it is loose, as long as it exists, adventurers will have the confidence to negotiate material exchanges with other forces.

The reason why Baron Qingfeng was successful from the beginning was because he was born into the aristocratic force. No matter what his profession was, his identity as a lord gave him an extremely high step. As long as he worked hard to climb up a few steps, he could just stick his head out and see the scenery at the top floor.

Although these steps are also difficult to climb.

But for adventurers who have to start from the bottom and work their way up, the level that Mage Lori stands on at the beginning is already the end point for them to retire.

Even though Baron Lori was one of those rare people who was frighteningly friendly and terrifyingly fair to adventurers, this was why adventurers, even those from the big adventure groups, were unwilling to make friends with him.

Maybe it's jealousy, maybe it's something else...but it's easy to break down your defenses if you have too much contact with such people.

It would be better to just watch from afar from the beginning and wish everyone well.

Although cases like the Toronto Mage are rare, adventurers who live long enough will always see a few of them.

That is, no one has ever seen a wizard who can persist for fifteen years like Toronto. "Money is something that should be enough for daily use." Even in the face of huge troubles, some adventurers still couldn't help but sigh.

"It's really useless to have too much." Evelyn Costa sneered, "It's a pity that people like us probably won't be able to feel what "too much" is in this life.

The feeling of being less exists every day.

Don't be mean!
If someone really feels that they have too much money to spend, they won’t take this risk! ”

The adventurers in the tavern were caught off guard and burst into high and low laughter... Sarcasm towards oneself always gets the most acute reaction from the adventurers.

Toronto didn't laugh. He answered seriously, "If anyone wants to exchange their resources for gold coins, they can come to me!"

"What? Can you pay more than Baron Qingfeng?" someone asked in a tone of increased surprise.

Although some caravans would purchase at a higher price, that was all because of Qingfengling's stable quotation.

It’s not that Qingfeng Territory doesn’t change the purchase price, but the reason they change the price is definitely not because the quantity is too large, and they usually only change it higher... The reason is basically that the world price of something has fluctuated.

For example, if a new use is discovered for a certain material, its price will rise accordingly.

Then the price of Qingfengling will also increase.

But if it's just because someone comes to buy it occasionally, they don't care.

But not every caravan of this kind is trustworthy.

It is very likely that your information will be sold right after you sell something.

The big adventure group may not care about these things, but independent adventurers dare not take the risk casually.

The adventurer's words clearly had bad intentions... Although they had already believed in Toronto's credibility, it did not stop them from finding these kids from rich families annoying.

However, he was also sure that Toronto was not pretending... This talent of being able to make people want to beat him up even when telling a joke was something that only people who were rich since childhood could say.

Even if people who have suffered want to pretend to be rich, they will unconsciously add an adjective when they speak... For example, if you have some good material, or something he has always wanted, he would never say such vague words.

Only those who have never felt that their wallets are not deep enough, not full enough, will have no restrictions on what they want to buy...especially, no restrictions on the bad side.

Toronto was silent, so silent that the adventurers in the tavern couldn't help but feel unusually agitated.

Finally, it was Grann Sack, who was surrounded, who spoke up: "What are you doing there, Toronto Mage?

Could it be..."

"If we only talk about gold coins..." Toronto Mage scratched his frizzy short hair and said seriously, "I don't think I have little money!

But, people don’t care much about gold coins, otherwise they wouldn’t ignore the purchasing station at the camp.

For a serious business association, it is natural to buy low and sell high, and they will not randomly overstock, right?"

The adventurers looked at each other. They understood what Toronto meant, but they still felt something was wrong.

It is common sense that when supply exceeds demand, the purchase price will be very high.

Which businessman doesn’t change his buying and selling prices according to the market?
The only reason why Baron Qingfeng could be so willful is that he himself does not rely on gold coins to survive.

That’s right, when a wizard reaches the level of Baron Lori, he can even create food with magic... That’s not right!
The adventurers suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Baron Lowry really didn't care about the purchase price of the basic materials. After all, he was selling finished products very well.

Toronto smiled slightly, but soon retracted it: "A serious businessman, even if he is rich, will not waste a penny.

Only those who truly feel that they are not short of money would... well, he doesn't even seem to have many magic materials..."

"Stop talking!" Grann Sack broke down.

He is so famous that everyone knows him, but why would he push himself to this point? Is it because he is short of money?

Of course, in the end, it is too difficult to rely on your own hard work to dig and explore in exchange for a chance of advancement.

"So, I don't understand..." The Toronto Mage looked at him in confusion, "I can find the resources to become a five-ring mage in Qingfeng Territory, why can't you?

Of course, you are a bit higher level, but the demand for knights is not as hard to find as that for mages, right?"

"Now, you've spent fifteen years to get a fifth ring... and then what? Keep changing?" Grann Sack said coldly, "You've got a long life!"
