Arcane Lord

The library of Giles Tower is divided into two floors. In fact, it separates the internal library from the public library. The reading permissions obtained by Chateau refer to the permissions of the public library and the reading permissions of some books in the internal library.

In addition to the seven towers, members of the other wizard towers can directly obtain the authority of the public library, and the general wizards in the seven towers camp also have the opportunity to obtain it. This is not difficult, as long as they have money.

It is difficult for ordinary people to obtain the reading permission of the internal library only, and it is basically impossible for people outside the Seven Towers to obtain it. The Austrian Law Federation is their best choice.

After registering and confirming the authority in the management office, Xia Duo plunged into the public library. He didn't care how many books there were, he just turned over the local one.

Every time he flipped through the book, he would involuntarily chant in his heart-10 gold coins, 10 gold coins!

The protective measures here are similar to the Tower of Time. If the book is within the scope of reading authority, as long as the book is removed from the shelf, Taring will start billing, and returning it within one day will not increase the cost.

Of course, Xia Duo doesn’t need to watch for a day. He only needs to pick up the book and turn it over. The follow-up can be sorted out slowly in his consciousness. What he has to do now is to flip through all the books within the authority as quickly as possible. .

Most books in public libraries only cost 10 gold coins once, but there are many exceptions. For example, the "Stardew Epic" he is holding now is full of elves, and it costs 100 gold coins to borrow once.

Since there are more than 10 gold coins, there are naturally less than 10 gold coins, but compared to the high ones, there are few books with less than 10 gold coins.

Halfway through, Xia Duo also found a book called "Dwarf Recipe". It only costs 3 gold coins to borrow once. Judging from the author's name, the author of this book should be a human.

The content is not so much a recipe as a travel diary, which tells the author's experience of traveling to the dwarf country through lowland business.

In addition to introducing a few simple methods of dwarf food during the period, it is crazy to complain about the dwarf race, from height appearance, behavior style, ethnic habits, architectural style, to food and beverage, and even forging skills.

The words are sharp, on the earth, it is not an exaggeration to call a keyboard man.

After reading this book, what impressed Xia Duo the most was not the customs and customs of the dwarf kingdom recorded in it, but the vulgar judgment short sentences that almost filled the whole text.

This made him almost completely lose the interest in reminiscing the second time? There are many books introducing the dwarf kingdom? Why should I bear this one!

However, this author is really capricious? Just write it out so casually? Isn't it afraid of being seen by the dwarves and causing diplomatic disputes?

After the episode, Xia Duo continued to flip through the book? After flipping through the pages, he found that there is a regularity in the borrowing fees for books here? That is—

As long as it involves magic-related content? Even if there is only a small amount, the borrowing fee starts directly with 10 gold coins and ranges from 100 gold coins.

Of course, with this discovery? To no avail? After all, there are too few books below 10 gold coins, and even because there are too few, Xia Duo is looking forward to it.

He wanted to see if there were any wonders like "Dwarf Recipe".

...

I don't know how long it has passed. Xia Duo, who was flipping through a book in front of a bookshelf, felt that someone was approaching behind him, so he closed the book temporarily and turned to look at it. This was a relief.

It turned out to be Niya? He thought it was because the library found an abnormality to rush people!

When Niya approached, Xia Duo asked in a low voice, "How about? Have you contacted me?"

"Huh? We are all in touch!"

"So fast?!"

Xia Duo was a little surprised? You should know that at least they invited high-level mages? Arcane masters are among them, and the first exchange meeting will be arranged tomorrow!

Those high-level mages couldn't wait to be invited at any time, and they could contact people with such a tight time, which made Xia Duo feel that he still underestimated Niya's influence in Giles Tower.

Niya's explanation for this is--

"Berela's Advanced Arcanist failed not long ago. Recently, I am preparing to reapply for the Advanced Lab. One of the conditions for the application is to organize at least five high-level mage exchange meetings with at least ten people.

"When I contacted Bellera, she happened to talk about this. Considering that she still cooperates with us, I promised to give her the title of organizer."

After listening to Niya's explanation, Xia Duo couldn't help but feel a little surprised. During the previous snow melting competition, Belleira organized the exchange meeting between him and Niya, and it was also because he had to apply for an advanced laboratory.

Unexpectedly, half a year later, she had failed once and had to apply again.

Although Chardonnay didn't know what conditions were required to apply for the advanced laboratory at Giles Tower, it was certainly not possible to apply for a few exchange meetings.

Judging from the situation of the Tower of Time Advanced Laboratory, every time it is used, in addition to the fixed maintenance cost, there is also the most important magic net repair work, which only arcanists can do.

Not counting the labor of the Arcanist for the time being, just the fixed maintenance cost, the number of gold coins is at least in ten thousand.

As for the Mage Tower, it is of course not necessary for advanced players to pay the money, but if the wool is on the sheep, it will definitely not lose.

For a high-level mage, even 10,000 gold coins is not a small expenditure, how can one try again and again.

Not to mention, there are also the labor of arcanists.

It’s just a fixed cost, and it’s just a fixed cost. Normally, it’s impossible for one person to try again and again, especially the Giles Tower.

Last time, Chateau heard from Belleira mentioned that even if it was an application, he still had to line up.

If you are an ordinary person, you may choose to give up after a failure. Sure enough, you still need a good background to play a master!

In fact, if it wasn't for Belera who didn't want to go home and inherit her territory for the time being, she could definitely advance in her own mage tower.

It's really enviable to think about it!

...

After thinking about it, Xia Duo's thinking couldn't help spreading. Obviously, the existence of Advanced Lab is beneficial to Advanceds tearing the magic net, but it is also because of its existence that the Arcanist is almost completely monopolized by the Mage Tower.

The so-called wild mage, if you do not join a mage tower, it is almost impossible to become an arcanist.

In fact, the vast majority of wild wizards are low- and medium-priced wizards, and even high-level wizards are not even considered advanced arcane wizards.

Xia Duo didn't want to work out a way to advance in a normal environment, but if the number of spellcasters expanded dramatically in the future, the number of advanced laboratories might not be enough.

He must now consider how to lower the threshold and cost of building advanced laboratories.

As for the advancement in a normal environment, Xia Duo is not optimistic. There are obviously many auxiliary facilities, why not use it? This is like a handmade iron pot on the earth. Is it really better than industrial production?

That's not necessarily true.

The upper limit of hand-made is there, but the progress of industrial technology is endless, and which is the right way is almost self-evident.

While advancing magic education for the whole people, relevant infrastructure must also keep up in time, otherwise it is very likely that trouble will occur.

This also reminds Xia Duo that we should not blindly promote education for all. It is best to link it with the development of industry and infrastructure and promote it together to conform to the general law of development.

Otherwise, forcibly educating a large number of wizards, but there is nowhere to put them, it would be a headache.
