Richard stepped into the room and saw many shiny reagents of different colors neatly and orderly placed in the cupboard behind the counter.
A young brown-haired girl, also wearing a grey robe, was flipping through a book intently.
As soon as she saw someone coming in, the brown-haired girl quickly stood up and said, "Hello, welcome to Sanders's hut. We have a full range of medicines, welcome to buy."
"Is there any potion that can be used for self-defense? The price should be less than 15 magic stones. I can't afford it if it's more expensive." Richard said straight to the point.
Although the price of goods purchased in such regular stores may be a little higher, the advantage is that there will be no mistakes.
The brown-haired girl chuckled and said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, it's rare for the school to see a wizard apprentice as frank as you."
The brown-haired girl glanced at the white bone stick mark on Richard's grey wizard robe and said, "I guess you are a new student who has just arrived. If you use it for self-defense, it must be mainly for avoiding monsters or wild beasts during missions, right?"
Richard nodded. He found that the brown-haired girl had good observation and judgment.
Seeing Richard nod in confirmation, the brown-haired girl turned around, took out a bottle of reagent shining with silver light from the cupboard and showed it to Richard.
At the same time, he introduced: "This blinding potion is quite good. After it breaks, it will emit a strong light, which will temporarily blind the monsters in the mud swamp that are used to darkness. It is enough for you to buy time to escape. The price is 12 magic stones.
There is also this one, the stench potion, which is made from the feces of the swamp dragon. It can drive away most beasts and monsters in a short period of time.
It just smells a bit bad, but the effect is very good, and the price is 10 magic stones." The brown-haired girl pointed to a place on the shelf and said.
Hey, can feces be sold for 10 magic stones? This swamp dragon must be full of treasures!
"In addition, the Swiftness Potion is also very useful. After drinking it, it will quickly stimulate the thigh and calf muscles. In a short period of time, the explosive power will increase significantly, about 40% to 50%. It lasts for about half an hour and is sold for only 5 magic stones.
If you have good agility, the Swiftness Potion is a good choice.
The only thing that is a bit uncomfortable is that after taking the Swiftness Potion, there will be aftereffects that will last for three days, and your lower body will be extremely sore." The girl glanced at Richard's thin figure and said.
Obviously, if it was a fat, or old and frail wizard apprentice, she would not recommend this swiftness potion.
After thinking for a while, Richard made a decision and said, "Then I'll buy one bottle of Stink Potion and one bottle of Swiftness Potion. By the way, can you use gold dinars to buy them in your store? If not, I can go and exchange them first and come back to buy them later."
"You can buy it directly, but you need to convert it at a ratio of 1 to 13, which means you need to pay a total of 195 gold dinars. But I can help you get rid of the decimals. I hope you will come to our store more often next time, okay?" The brown-haired girl said cheerfully.
Richard calculated briefly in his mind that even if he went outside to exchange it, the maximum exchange rate would be 1:12, and it would also waste a lot of time. What's more, the girl would round off the price, so he agreed immediately.
Richard returned to his dormitory again, practiced the breathing method, and went to bed early.
As soon as the sun rose, Richard began to check the items he needed to carry, such as the knight's sword, leather armor, gray wood short bow, black feather arrows and two bottles of potion.
Afterwards, he went out and walked towards the school's mission area. He planned to visit the mission area early and familiarize himself with the environment.
As soon as Richard walked into the mission area, what came into his sight was an empty vaulted hall.
There is an extremely eye-catching, tall black stone wall in the center of the hall, which should be a fixed magic array of some kind.
On the black stone wall, a list of task details was scrolling, and the effect presented was similar to the three-dimensional image that Richard had seen in his previous life.
For example, the task [Clean up the scavenger wolves], in addition to the task details, there is also a 3D model of the scavenger wolf, which rotates next to the text description of this task, which is very lifelike.
Tasks are divided into different types and marked on the stone walls.
At a quick glance, Richard saw marks for different task categories, such as patrol missions, collection missions, cleanup missions, wanted missions, and stationed missions.
There are also suggestions behind each task, such as it is recommended that a second-level wizard apprentice take on this task, or it is recommended that more than three people take on this task, etc.
Directly in front of the black stone wall is a row of service counters, where several senior apprentices are in charge of counting spoils, sending and receiving tasks, and providing consultation.
For ordinary first-level wizard apprentices, since they know very few witchcrafts, they mainly accept patrol or collection missions near the school.
But even for missions near the school's headquarters, since there are many low-level monsters in the silt swamp itself, first-level wizard apprentices can often only form a team to take on these missions.
Three to five people are the standard number of people for a regular team, and the upper limit of five is derived from the school's regulations.
As time passed, more and more students started to come and go in the mission area in groups of three or four. Some were waiting for people, while others were consulting or accepting tasks at the counter.
At this time, Richard, who was strolling around, heard two people chatting quietly next to him, and the few words they mentioned inadvertently made him quite interested.
So Richard pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
"Did you see Vijay skillfully use the zero-level magic of Shadow Grasp in battle?" A short female student with silver hair and a longbow on her back asked the blonde girl next to her suspiciously.
Behind it was a large bow that was almost as tall as a person, which was quite eye-catching!
"Really, I saw Vijay perform this magic with my own eyes. A shadowy hand appeared out of thin air, grabbed two scavenger wolves, and squeezed them into a ball of flesh and blood. It was extremely powerful!" The blonde girl, who had a sweet look and a small mole at the corner of her mouth, said with an envious expression.
"The Vijay you are talking about is the second-best student in our group, right? No wonder he was able to learn Shadow Grasp. By the way, I heard that he is going to be promoted to level two soon, right?" the silver-haired girl continued to ask.
"That's right. His mental strength has long exceeded the promotion requirements. I heard that his proficiency in Shadow Grip is a little lacking, because promotion to a second-level apprentice requires mastering two zero-level attack sorcery spells and practicing them to a proficient level.
But judging from his appearance, it should be around this month." The blonde girl said with certainty.
"It's amazing! It's only been one year and two months, and you're already going to be promoted to a second-level apprentice. You're a child of destiny!
Unlike me, if I can be promoted within three years, I'll have to thank God for my blessing!" The silver-haired girl couldn't help but reveal an expression of admiration.
"In fact, he could have been faster, but he chose Shadow Grasp, one of the most difficult zero-level sorcery to practice, which is why it has been delayed until now. Otherwise, he should have been promoted successfully two months ago!" the blonde girl added.
"Shadow Grip, one of the most difficult zero-level witchcrafts to practice." Richard
seemed to understand something after hearing it. When Richard walked to the agreed place again, there was a tall young man holding a sword and shield, saying something to Meiluo, and he seemed to be quite excited.
Out of curiosity, Richard walked closer and listened, and immediately knew the reason.
"Meiluo, it's fine if you just call a newcomer here, but you actually promised him the same treatment as a full-time team member. I don't agree with that!
Even if he is really a good crossbowman as you said, he can only get half of the reward of the regular team members at most!" The tall boy seemed to reject Meiluo's proposal outright.
