The wealth of mages is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people, but their expenses will also make the richest businessmen feel distressed. Whether it is magic equipment and various research materials, they add up to an astronomical figure, so ordinary mages will choose one or two. To study and research in one direction, there are too many choices, and both energy and economy will be unable to keep up with the state.
In just a few minutes, the corpses of thirty-nine monsters above the third level were all divided up by the mages present. The mages who got their ideal materials also gloated to say that the mages who were not present were a big loss.
You must know that the merchants usually buy the corpses of some low-level monsters, and many monsters above the third level are not the existence that ordinary hunters and adventurers can deal with. Even if there are some monsters of level 3 or above, they will be transferred to other cities in the kingdom where they can be sold at higher prices after they are acquired by businessmen. Only a few will stay in North County and be bought by local mages and nobles.
And most of the mages like to stay in the laboratory to do research most of the time, or meditate and exercise spells to improve their own cultivation. I don't like hunting monsters by myself. Only those warriors who pursue military power will use hunting monsters as their main means of training. But the number of advanced warriors will not be much more than that of mages!
As a result, the price of Warcraft materials has become higher and higher, while the number of sales has become less and less.
The three carts of Warcraft brought by Donald happened to be a timely rain. With these, the mages present did not need to order Warcraft materials for at least half a year.
And Donald, who was aware of the business opportunities here, also proposed to use the crystal nucleus to replace the gold sol, and sell these monster materials. For some pure elemental mages, the crystal core of Warcraft is not very useful, and it is far less important than the element spar, so they happily choose to pay with the crystal core they have accumulated.
In this way, after Donald got a few hundred gold sols, he also got a Warcraft crystal core worth thousands of gold sols. Among them, most of them are third-level, and only two are fourth-level.
After the deal was completed, both parties were happy.
Donald bid farewell to the mages, and then followed the teacher to receive instruction.
The old mage Messer has taught apprentices for many years, and his experience is obviously not ordinary. He did not teach Donald any powerful spells, but first explained some simple but practical spell techniques, and then gave him a basic alchemy class.
After a few hours of class, Donald added a lot of basic mage knowledge that was originally missing, which is of immeasurable benefit to his future development.
When the class was over, Messer let him rest, and Donald, who was not at all exhausted, went directly into the library of the clubhouse.
For his attitude of thirst for knowledge, most mages affirmed that only diligent study can achieve success in the end, otherwise talented apprentices waste the most important years of their lives, and they will not be able to work in the mages. No matter how far you walk on the road, in the end you get nothing.
Entering the library this time, Donald's main goal is to read the notes of the senior mages and learn the process and experience of advancing from apprentices to mages. According to the instructions of his teacher Messer, his physical condition has reached the conditions for promotion. Whether it is the strength of mental power or the manipulation of mental power, it is not lower than that of a normal first-level mage.
What hindered him was his understanding of spell formation and his proficiency in casting spells. After all, he didn't receive vocational training since he was a child, and regardless of his combat power, he, a mage apprentice, is still very hydrated in other aspects.
So this time Donald focuses on how to lay a solid foundation and then quickly advance to the content.
This time Donald stayed in the clubhouse for three more days, during which, apart from reading in the library, he repeatedly practiced spell casting in the training ground.
It's a pity that after three days, Donald, who was eager for success, still couldn't find a sense of how to advance, and his mood became more and more anxious.
"It can't go on like this, and it won't solve the problem in a hurry!"
So Donald simply put down his thoughts of fast promotion, and spent the next two days reading in the library, or asking some senior mages for advice. Among them, Mr. Messer gave the most help, and then took advantage of the rest time in the evening to spend more time in the training ground. Practicing a few spells, anyway, has the dual recovery effect of meditation and a small purification potion, so that he can spend 80% of the day studying, and his body does not feel much tired.
As a result, when he slowly relaxed and practiced, a first-level spell was easily released, which naturally triggered the burst of mental energy in the body, and successfully completed the promotion from a zero-level apprentice to a full-fledged mage.
This process is very wonderful, as if the soul is separated from the body. At that moment, Donald's ability to use spiritual power and observe elements has been greatly improved several times. This feels stronger than when he was amplified by the white crystal ring. In order to better examine his true strength, he took off the white crystal ring given by Messer at the beginning of the training, and practiced spell casting in a normal state without augmentation.
After successfully advancing, Donald felt that his spirit was extremely satisfied, and his mental capacity seemed to have doubled greatly. Then the book of truth in his body also delivered a message that surprised him.
After he became the first stage mage of Hei Tie, because the source of spiritual power was the increase of soul strength, his authority to use the Book of Truth was also increased by one level.
Moreover, each time the Book of Truth mentioned above is upgraded by one level, the contract owner can be given a skill and reward opportunity, and now the first skill can be obtained!
For the various units of Warcraft, especially the skills of the heroes of various races, Donald has been coveted for a long time.
The blizzard and teleportation of the master, the suction and flame storm of the blood elf prince, as well as the invincible sacred shield and resurrection of the paladin, the wind step of the juggernaut, the mirror clone and the blade storm, and so on. Each skill is powerful and uniquely useful, and Donald wants to acquire almost all of them.
This is of course impossible. The Book of Truth is set in accordance with the rules of Warcraft and divides the world's occupation level into ten levels for the contract host and the soul level of summoned creatures. The first stage of black iron corresponds to lv1, and the middle stage of black iron corresponds to lv1. lv2, that is, the level of the second-level arms, except that the last golden rank corresponds to lv10, and so on.
The power levels in this world are generally divided into five levels: apprentice, black iron, bronze, silver and gold. In addition to apprenticeship, each rank can be divided into three stages.
Among them, the apprentice needless to say, who can reach the black iron rank, generally can join the army or choose to become an adventurer.
Taking the mage that Donald knows best as an example, the apprentices who can use 0-level spells are apprentices, and those who have mastered the 1-3 level spells are the mages of the three ranks of black iron; The direction of power has developed, and he has become a bronze-level master. When it comes to mastering high-level spells of 7-8, it is almost a humanoid strategic weapon that can destroy a town by one person.
As for the golden rank, it has already touched the power of shallow laws and stepped into the legendary threshold with one foot. Their bodies have evolved under the transformation of the power of law, and they have begun to transcend the boundaries of mortal things. As long as they are willing, raising their hands to overthrow the kingdom is not a problem.
Every gold-level existence is a deterrent force like a national treasure, and it is the ultimate trump card to deter other forces from daring to act rashly. In Celtic, the two known golden powers are on an equal footing with His Majesty the King.
Donald has only ten skills to choose from, and he is currently the first. But after the ninth level, Donald knew nothing, and the book of truth did not give any explanation. Even for a master like Messer, being above the ninth level is a legend, and I don't know if it can be achieved in this life.
"Being able to have ten powerful skills is already a great benefit, and you can't be too dissatisfied!"
After all, this kind of situation that directly endows talent with skills and is rooted in the source of the soul is already very defiant in the eyes of others, and can be called divine grace. Generally, only the descendants of gods or devout believers at the level of saints will receive this gift from the true god. an ability.
And Donald didn't believe in any god, and was just an ordinary human bloodline, but now he can choose a required skill on his own! This can no longer be said to be a blessing from God!
In the end, after thinking a few times, Donald chose the ultimate skill teleportation, which is neither attack nor defense, as his first talent spell.
The teleportation technique of the human race master can be said to be a complete escape skill. Of course, after rising to the advanced level, it can also be the best means of raid tactics.
Opening the Book of Truth, Donald checked the digitized skill information given in it.
"Teleportation, the ultimate skill of the master. It is weakened due to the suppression of level authority, and one person teleports to the area where all his own creatures have reached within 100 kilometers. The cooling time is half an hour."
"Upgrade direction, advanced teleportation (the teleportation distance is increased to 500 kilometers, and the cooling time is reduced to 15 minutes), mass teleportation (carries all units within ten feet around the caster, and the teleportation distance is increased to 1,500). km, with a five-minute cooldown), ultimate teleportation (any target, the teleportation distance is the range that all friendly units on this plane have been to, no cooldown.)"
The reason why there is a cooling time is that the explanation given by the Book of Truth is that with the host's physical strength and soul state, it cannot withstand a short-term continuous space transmission. However, with the strength and progress of Donald himself, this cooling time will gradually decrease until it disappears.
"With this skill in hand, it is really an excellent skill necessary for home travel and hunting and fighting!"
Looking at the series of instructions in the Book of Truth, Donald couldn't help but sigh.
Although there are no small limitations at the beginning, the skills for subsequent upgrades are also very powerful. When your soul level reaches lv3 and you have the strength of a black iron high-level mage, you can learn advanced teleportation techniques and travel freely between North County; at level 5, you can upgrade to group teleportation techniques, which can teleport certain distances within 1,500 kilometers. The number of creatures and objects can almost cover half the land of the Celtic Kingdom; when lv7 enters the silver stage, it can be upgraded to the ultimate teleportation technique. At that time, the world is so big, where can't you go?
The reason why he chose teleportation as his first skill is because the way it teleports instantly is the most powerful skill to escape from home while traveling. This is more effective than any attack and defense skills in the early stage. Even if you encounter force majeure enemies and dangerous situations, you can instantly escape from danger.
The invincible skills and invincibility potions similar to the Holy Shield of the Paladin seem to be powerful, but both have a maximum initial time limit of fifteen seconds. For some fast enemies, this time is not enough for him to run a few steps. will be caught up again.
At present, Donald's own strength is only the first stage of black iron, so the teleportation technique that can instantly escape the danger is undoubtedly his best choice at the moment.
With the trump card of teleportation, and with his powerful summoning army, even if he encounters a powerful enemy of the silver rank, he can escape even if he can't beat him.
Although other attack and defense skills are powerful, life safety comes first, and teleportation is much easier than other access methods.
Although there are also equipment such as teleportation scepters to escape daggers and other equipment in the item exchange, the casting speed of the accompanying skills is naturally not as fast as their own skills, and they are easily interrupted. There are also defects such as teleportation to the designated main base. How can the thought of one's own skills be able to activate so quickly and conveniently? The teleportation technique can be teleported to any location that has been reached at will within the distance limit.
With the life-saving skill of teleportation, even if you encounter danger, you can instantly teleport to hundreds of kilometers away, and your life safety is greatly guaranteed. Donald is also full of confidence in the future hunting of Warcraft, so he doesn't have to look ahead and waste a lot of crystal cores.
