Age of Adepts

Chapter 72: training camp

Views:

Countless apprentices with dark circles under their eyes who were struggling to catch up on sleep came out of the tent roaring, cursing loudly at this unscrupulous companion. But when they saw the young figure standing in front of the boulder having fun, they could only wave their arms angrily a few times, muttering and crawling back into the tent.

Immediately, countless witchcraft lights of different colors lit up on many tents. These guys who desperately need sleep can only use witchcraft to block the interference of the outside world and continue their sweet dreams.

It took a full half an hour for Greem to exhaust his mental power to an extremely low level after panting heavily.

And in his keen perception, there is still a steady stream of fire source power released from the depths of his muscles, bones and flesh in his body, soothing and filling his mental exhaustion. It's just that this process is much smoother than at the beginning, and it is already within the range that his mental strength can bear.

"How is it, do you feel better now?" A deep voice suddenly came from behind.

Greem looked back, and it turned out to be Kevin the black hand.

"Do you know how many people in the camp are envious of your cravings yesterday?" Kevin folded his arms, with an incomprehensible smile on his face: "It was the fire dragon feast yesterday. But it’s something that many people in the camp dream of but can’t get. To be invited to dinner by Ah Fu is a more gratifying thing than returning from victory in the underground!”

"The meat is very expensive, right?" Greem scratched his head.

"Expensive? It's not too expensive! On the market, the fresh steak of Fire Dragon only costs 100 magic crystals per catty, and 200 magic crystals per cup of dragon blood."

Although it was easy to hear what Kevin said, Greem always had the feeling that the other party was gnashing his teeth.

The current Greem is no longer that fledgling, ignorant brat. He can now clearly estimate the meaning of the magic crystal.

For a trial apprentice like him who came to perform simple underground exploration tasks, the task benefits he could bring from each underground trip were only about 5 contribution points and 10 magic crystals. For an elite apprentice like Kevin, the income he can get from an underground mission is about 10 contribution points and 30-40 magic crystals.

Excluding the basic expenses of purchasing materials and necessities, an elite apprentice with two to three hundred magic crystals in his hand is already considered a wealthy person. Otherwise, after a gambling fight yesterday, how could there be so many elite apprentices gnashing their teeth at Greem, as if they wanted to eat him.

It can be said responsibly that Greem almost drained the magic crystal reserves of the elite apprentices in the entire training camp after these two games. If there is no bald Fu to take care of him, I am afraid that the moment he steps out of the camp, there will be countless apprentices waiting to knock his sap!

Even though such a large amount of "ill-gotten wealth" was obtained out of thin air, when Greem heard the real price of the earth fire dragon's flesh and blood, he still couldn't help but the muscles on his face began to twitch.

After suppressing it for a long time, Greem finally couldn't help but roared to the sky.

"I knew this thing was so expensive, I yesterday... I yesterday... definitely..."

"You must not dare to touch it?"

"You must eat more!"

"..."

After a few words of laughter, when the two faced each other again, there was a hint of intimacy between their brows and eyes.

In fact, from the first day they met, Greem was a little in awe of these elite apprentices honed from life and death. Don't look at him having let go of two well-known senior apprentices one after another, but after all, it was just a big showdown. If the venue restrictions of the duel were relaxed and the sorcery methods used in the duel were not restricted, the strength of Greem, a junior apprentice, would still appear to be too weak.

He is only strong as an auxiliary golem, but his body is too weak.

If he and Heimu were thrown into a deep mountain and old forest, then Heimu, who is good at cursing and witchcraft, would have thousands of ways to play with him to death. And if the enemy he was fighting against was replaced by Kevin in front of him, then Greem would never even know how he died.

It is impossible for him to hide underground all day to avoid the enemy's attack. He always needs to return to the ground to eat, drink and sleep. And the moment when he relaxes, maybe it is the moment when the enemy quietly takes his life away.

So even though his combat ability was recognized by most people, Greem still clearly knew his weight in his heart. He may be able to pose a threat to some people in the camp, but it is not enough to be fatal, so the camp members can accept him with a more tolerant attitude.

If Greem was really confused by the false aura of the two gambling fights, and tried to associate with them as a strong man, he might only gain endless hostility and resentment.

So when Kevin showed a little kindness, Greem immediately responded with ten times more enthusiasm.

Kevin is much older than Greem, but he is only in his twenties and still belongs to the category of young people, so there is not much difference between the two when they get along.

After talking for a few words, Kevin threw an old cloth bag to Greem.

"This is the bet you won after winning yesterday. I'm afraid that it will be inconvenient for you to hold it. Most of them have been exchanged for magic crystal cards for you. They can be exchanged directly at all the wizard towers in Sandi Tallinn. This is better than you It is much more convenient to swagger through the market with thousands of magic crystals in your pocket!"

Greem was overjoyed when he heard the words, and expressed his thanks repeatedly.

"What is there to be grateful for in these small things? Speaking of which, I would also like to thank you! Without you, I wouldn't have been able to make a small profit yesterday. Haha, seeing those guys' faces turn green, the scene was so pleasant !"

Greem rubbed his hands and didn't know how to answer. It's good to meet Kevin, but he seems to offend more guys!

"Don't worry, Ah Fu has already sent a message. From now on, you have been included in my team. You may not know these things, because when Ah Fu said this, you seem to have been carried out of the cabin .” Kevin couldn’t help laughing. But apart from teasing, Greem could still hear envy that couldn't be concealed.

"Brother Kevin, I wonder if you can introduce me to the duties and responsibilities of the apprentices in the camp!"

"Haha, of course. Come on, let me take you back to the Wizard's Tower. On the way, I will introduce you to the specific situation of this training camp!"

Therefore, when Greem returned to the wizard's tower residence with this huge sum of money, he finally had a preliminary understanding of the purpose of the training camp.

Training camp Training camp, as its name suggests, is a camp for training elite apprentices, but it is also a large collection of small wizard families that maintain the interests.

You must know that the name of the Dark Crypt not only refers to the dark and deep underground world, but also covers the vast forests and rich resources around the Kerila Mountains in a radius of nearly 30,000 miles. This is also one of the richest areas in the entire Dagon area.

And the level 2 wizard stationed in the Dark Crypt by the Sandi Tower Lynn Wizards Association has lived in seclusion in the Wizard Tower all year round, and rarely shows up. Unless there was a big event where the fallen wizards hit the surface, he almost didn't care about the things here, only obsessed with his own witchcraft experiments.

Although he occasionally sneaks into the depths of the ground for a while, but that is mostly just collecting knowledge and resources for his own experiments, and rarely participates in the confrontation between surface wizards and fallen wizards.

Therefore, to be honest, the 17 first-order wizards in charge of the Dark Crypt Wizard Tower are the real talkers of all affairs here. And behind each of them stood a wizard family that played an important role in the Dagon area.

If the strength of these wizarding families is placed in front of the Sandalinn Wizarding Association, they are of course inconspicuous and can only be regarded as small wizarding families. But in this Dagon area, they are the top snakes covering the sky with one hand. Ordinary human aristocrats and chambers of commerce can only get a share of the pie here by taking shelter under their wings, continuously usurping huge profits from the Kerila Mountains.

Medicinal materials, wood, special plants, furs, monster nuclei, mysterious monsters... as long as you can think of materials and resources, you can find them here. Numerous hunting teams and expedition teams shuttled between the mountains and valleys of the Kerila Mountains, constantly bringing back precious resources and bringing the most generous returns to the sponsors behind them.

But after all, these are only low-end resources. It is the witchcraft materials produced in the underground world that really make the wizarding families a lot of money. Dark grass, ghost mushrooms, night eye stones, etc. These witchcraft materials that even formal wizards are attracted to are the main reasons for the longevity of wizard families for hundreds of thousands of years.

Ordinary people simply don't have the ability to go deep underground to collect these resources. Only these mysterious people with special means-apprentice wizards have the ability to travel through the territory of underground creatures and bring back these enviable and rare resources from specific areas.

The 17 resident wizards in the wizard tower also represent 17 leading wizard families in the Dagon area. Their existence for one day means that the resources and interests of this wizard family cannot be touched by outsiders. However, as formal wizards, they certainly would not do those rough and time-consuming drudgery, so it was the younger apprentices selected from the family to complete the tasks instead of them.

This can not only ensure the continuity of the family's interests, but also train some of the best of the younger generation, so this training camp came into being.

If the 17 wizards stationed in the tower are the representatives of the wizard family, then the elite apprentices in this camp are the thugs of the wizard family. Once something happens that violates the interests of their own family, they are the executors who come forward to protect the interests and face of the family.

Of course, if the expedition team sent or funded by the family finds rare monsters or monsters that they can't take in the Kerila Mountains, the apprentices sent by their families here also need to contribute their own strength to provide the expedition team with powerful wizards. technical support.

However, the biggest center of gravity of these elite apprentices is still in the dark crypt.

Only there is the lifeblood of the wizard family that is difficult to give up.
