Weird Wizarding World

   Chapter 204 Meeting

  Invisible strong wind roared in the small room, and the whistling sound could be heard incessantly.

After    half a sound, Colin stopped and stood still, and slowly exhaled the golden paper.

   After seeing the characters on the gold paper clearly, he immediately raised his eyebrows.

   In the column of the knights and other ranks, the ultimate knight (100/100) who had not moved for a long time actually flashed a vague ↑ symbol.

   This means that the strength of the knight continues to increase.

  Unfortunately, there was no qualitative change, and it failed to break through the limit of the ultimate knight.

Um?

   Suddenly, he turned his eyes and quickly looked at the talent column.

   The characters behind the strong life talent slowly beat, from 4/100 to 5/100.

   'The essence of strong life talent is strong vitality, this new breathing method...'

   Colin closed his eyes slightly, carefully feeling the unique blood energy brought by the knight training in his body.

   Surging, filling, rich and viscous...

   He opened his eyes, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. Although this was still blood, it was almost qualitatively different from the previous blood!

   Colin subconsciously turned his eyes and looked at the column of breathing techniques.

   The newly integrated breathing method has improved a little after he practiced it once.

  ‘I don’t know if the fused breathing technique breaks the limit once...whether it can make the path of the knights go further. ' Colin couldn't help but look forward to it.

Although    knights are far less powerful than wizards, in his view, there are still merits.

   After all, spirit and body always complement each other.

   At least among the second- and third-order wizards he has seen so far, the body should have been strengthened by special means.

  For example, Artbold should have fused the blood of some magical plants, and the third-order wizard like an ice sculpture that he saw in the classroom when looking for Lilian before should have been transformed similar to elemental life.

   As he thought about it, he thought about it, took a word for each as usual, and named the new unnamed breathing method - Yiguang breathing method.

   After doing this, I wanted to continue to learn the prerequisite knowledge of the Heart of the Ancient Tree as planned.

   But when he was very quiet, Colin suddenly thought of the barter meeting he mentioned when he met Meier in the restaurant last night.

   pat.

   subconsciously took out his pocket watch, the silver pointer pointed to five o'clock in the afternoon.

"Lord Colin, there will be a small-scale wizard bartering fair tomorrow evening. I wonder if you are interested in participating... The main purpose is to exchange knowledge, witchcraft, and even news. thing."

   put away the pocket watch, and then took out the voucher given by Meier, he recalled what Meier said last night.

  ‘The time of the barter meeting is exactly six o’clock, and the place is in the dining room box on the third floor… Just after dinner, I went there. ’

   After pondering for a moment, Colin put away the voucher and made a decision.

  The sun slanted westward, and the golden brilliance slanted in through the round glass window of the central dining room on the second floor.

   ding dong——

  The soft piano sound and the sound of the knives and forks colliding with the plates echoed harmoniously throughout the restaurant.

  Colin put down his fork, picked up the napkin and wiped his mouth.

   Dinner is Tuscan salmon, a piece of it, the rich and creamy aroma fills the mouth.

  It was delicious, but he missed Renee's dinner even more.

   That is from the homeland, and only he knows the deliciousness.

  Without the occlusion of clouds, at this 10,000-meter altitude, the brilliance of the sunset seems to be more intense.

  Walking through the golden embers that penetrated through the glass window of the dining room, Colin walked past the neatly arranged tables and chairs in the hall, came to the box area, followed the instructions on the voucher, and came to the room where the barter fair was held.

   "Lord Colin."

As soon as    entered the room, Meier greeted him with a surprised expression: "I thought Your Excellency would not come tonight."

   "I have nothing to do, come and have a look."

  Colin glanced around the room.

   At this time, a lot of wizards have come, and many of them are familiar faces. They are wizards from other affiliated schools, and they have seen them before when they boarded the boat.

   There are also many wizards who have never met - either wizards from other schools in the city, or wandering wizards in the city.

   On this airship, in addition to the wizards of the nine schools and their affiliated schools, there are other wizards.

   There are many schools in Neustadt City, so naturally it is impossible to have only nine schools and their affiliated schools.

   In fact, in addition to the nine schools that are recognized as the first echelon, there are more than a dozen schools in the second echelon, and there are countless less popular schools.

   However, even if there are many schools, they are all under the jurisdiction of the High Council, and naturally they all need to go to the southern seas.

   And the lord of Neustadt is also a member of the Supreme Council.

   Next to Meier, there was an acquaintance, Milu of the Wartak School, but to Colin's surprise, Sauvak, one of the four of them, did not come to this barter.

   In addition, Lillian and the like did not participate in this barter.

   "Your Excellency Colin, this barter will be far bigger than what I told you yesterday." Meier sighed.

   As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion at the door.

   Colin listened.

   "Lord Morton..."

   Those clamorous voices are a respectful greeting.

   Looking up again, a hot witch with silver hair and silver eyes and a ring of silver earrings walked in.

   She was not wearing a witch robe, but a tube top, and her silver hair like a wolf's tail was tied up, revealing a fair and indifferent face.

   "It's the Morton wizard of the Yin'an School." Mi Lu whispered, admiring her tone.

   Colin retracted his gaze, the Yinan School, like the Ista School, was one of the nine major schools.

  If I remember correctly, the relationship between the Yinan School and the Ista School is also good.

   Of course, this has nothing to do with the wizards of their affiliated schools, and the witch Morton is not in their turn to get involved.

As soon as   Morton came, he did his part to sit on the main seat, regardless of whether anyone came or not, he raised his legs and announced directly:

   "Okay, the barter will start now, um... let's start with you."

   She looked at the wizard on the left.

  The so-called barter fair is a process in which each wizard takes turns to speak in a certain order, saying what he sells, or what he wants to buy, and the rest of the wizards respond.

   "Okay, Lord Morton." The wizard on the left nodded and took out a few lavender magic crystals from his arms.

   "Witchcraft crystal, support type?... If you attack sorcery, I'm afraid it will be difficult to exchange it out." Meier whispered unexpectedly.

   If he had heard Meier say this before, Colin would have wondered, but now he is not.

   The booklet Lillian gave him just happened to have relevant information.

   Regarding the magic crystal, although it has many advantages, it also has many disadvantages.

The first disadvantage of    is that it is difficult to use in real combat.

   Of course, this refers to witchcraft crystals above the first order.

   The reason is very simple, it is also a matter of casting time...

   The complete process of using witchcraft crystals, first of all, inject spiritual power, let the runes inscribed in the witchcraft crystals build a witchcraft model, and then the magic stored in the crystal contacts with the witchcraft model to form witchcraft.

  Although the wizard does not need to spend energy to build a wizard model, it also takes time to automatically build a wizard model from inscribed runes.

   And generally slower than wizards building models themselves.

This shortcoming of    is manifested and obvious during the apprenticeship period. Take Brightness as an example. After mastering it, the casting time is within 0.3s.

   And using bright crystal, the time is usually within 0.5s,

   The difference of only 0.2s is not obvious.

  You can wait until the first level, the normal casting time of sorcery is more than one second, and at least half of them are more than two seconds.

  The time to cast after building a wizard model in the mind is usually within a second.

   At this time, when using sorcery crystals, the difference in casting time will become somewhat unacceptable.

   The wizard on Morton's left continued:

   "First-order high-level magic crystal - Chirol exploration. There are five in total, 3,000 magic stones together, and one magic stone is sold for 650, or equivalent items or knowledge."

   Sure enough, as Meier thought, what the wizard took out was an auxiliary type of magic crystal.

   The Chirol Exploration, as its name suggests, is mainly used to explore geology.

After the    wizard's voice fell, wizards began to bid one after another, and all five wizard crystals were finally exchanged, which was a good start for the trade fair.

   Next, the wizards spoke one by one in the order they sat down.

   Of course, not every wizard needs to take out items for trading. If there is no item you want to sell, you can skip it directly.

   Colin naturally had nothing to sell, so when it was his turn, he naturally chose to skip it.

  The main purpose of his coming here is to see if he can find something that he can use.

  Unfortunately, until the end of the bartering event, he was unable to exchange for a thing.

   Either he doesn't need it, or he can't replace it if he needs it.

  ‘However, you should also increase your knowledge. ' Colin thought, walking down the hallway back to his room.

   At the next corner, his footsteps stopped suddenly.

   In front, stood two figures talking.

   are all familiar.

  One is Margaret, his immediate boss at the meeting of Azius.

   And the other is Morton, the wizard of the Yinan School that I just met.
