On the third day of the first ten days of the cold month, the 8th Apprentice Town.
On this day, Angel got up very early. After getting up, he dressed up and wore a tailored black gentleman's suit.
In the mirror, the little boy turned into an elegant nobleman in a blink of an eye, with a tall nose, thin lips, blue eyes as deep as the blue sea, and a slightly messy but interesting short golden hair; With the current aesthetics, Angel is definitely first-class handsome and handsome. Usually, when he doesn't care much, he can already attract everyone's attention. When he starts to pay attention to appearance, he is even more handsome and dazzling.
"I always feel that something is missing." If there are outsiders here, they must already feel perfect, and their temperament, dress, and appearance are all top-notch. But Angel himself was somewhat dissatisfied.
At this time, there was a chattering sound from the floor-to-ceiling window, Angel walked over, opened the window, and the fresh air drifted into the room. Entering with the outside air, there is also a seabird wearing the same black gentleman's suit, Toby.
Toby circled around Angel's room, and then landed on Angel's head familiarly.
One big and one small just face the mirror like this, looking at each other.
The same clothes, the same awkward expression, the same pose...
"I know what's missing, the hat is missing!" Angel looked at Toby's small body in the mirror in his golden hair, and immediately recalled the fear of being dominated by Toby's hair on the cloud whale.
There is a market in the apprentice town, and there are also traders stationed in the nearby villages and towns for a long time. Angel soon bought a pure black high-footed oval-brimmed hat at a special hat stand.
Angel hurried back home with Toby on his back.
Along the way, Angel received a lot of attention. Appearance, dress, and Toby, who is also full of cuteness, are all three combined, which is very eye-catching. However, this is limited to the attention of ordinary people. The wizard apprentice Angel has never met one. It is estimated that they are all hiding in the basement to do experiments, and they rarely come out when they are fine.
After driving Toby away from his hair, Ingres put on a black high-toed hat, and his temperament was more elegant. With the dark red bow tie and white silk lining, Ingres was more mysterious in elegance and handsomeness.
Today he is going to that person.
In order to show respect, Angel naturally hopes that he can meet people in his best face.
Moreover, Flora also told Angel: "He is a very wise old man, but he is a bit rigid, and he likes people who do things well. If you are going to see him, remember to dress formally."
Even if Flora didn't say it, Angel would still convince himself. He didn't want him to forget the glory of the lion's heart carved into his bones because he was addicted to extraordinary power.
"The fire of the lion's heart will never go out." The button on the gentleman's suit is the emblem of the Pat family: lion heart. This dress was actually worn by Angel for the first time. Originally, it was intended to be worn when his elder brother was conferred a title. Unexpectedly, before Leon could inherit the title, he turned a corner and left the Old Earth Continent, alone. One person came to the legendary and colorful continent.
Angel silently recited the family motto. At this moment, the young man in the mirror seemed to have an extra temperament, which was responsibility and leniency.
"Let's go, Toby. I heard that the elder is the most erudite in the Southern Region. Maybe he can help you find the path of evolution." This time Angel went, not only for himself, but also for his support It means to plan.
Although Greya just asked him to take care of Toby, Toby has already embarked on an extraordinary road after all. In the past few months, Angel and Toby have also forged a deep friendship, so Angel took this opportunity , and hope to find a way for Toby.
After stepping out of the 8th Apprentice Town, Angel didn't walk long when he saw a green vine ladder falling from the sky, connected to the leaf platform ten meters high.
After Angel climbed to the platform, it didn't take long for the Shuteng bus to drive slowly.
On the bus, Angel quietly thought about the "spiritual power" induction points in his heart.
When he sensed the spiritual power, he truly took the first extraordinary step.
There are three steps to stepping out of the transcendent. The first step is to sense mental power, the second step is to manipulate mental power, and the third step is to build a mental power model. Once the mental model is constructed, it can be called a first-level apprentice, and Abree is currently at this stage.
After pondering for a long time, Angel was awakened by a burst of cheers.
Looking out through the carriage, it turned out to be the center of the tree spirit courtyard, and a huge square was suddenly illuminated by sunlight.
The branches and leaves of the Eternal Tree are huge, completely blocking the sunlight, and the tree spirit courtyard below the Eternal Tree is dark all year round. Occasionally there is sunlight, all of which are scattered light from the cracks.
Today, the central square, which covers several kilometers, is completely exposed to the sun. The golden sun shines on the ground like gold dust all over the ground.
Angel raised his head and looked into the air, and found that the hundred-meter-long leaves that blocked the square were all rolled up.
"It seems that Lord Shuling is very merciful and is ready to show the light to the people below." Angel secretly said in his heart.
Still, is it worth the cheers? If you want to bask in the sun, take the tree vine bus to the leaves of the Eternal Tree.
Angel retracted his gaze a little strangely, so he did not see that a crack suddenly opened in the middle of the central square of the Tree Spirit Court, and the apprentices who cheered poured into the crack one after another.
20 minutes later, Angel arrived at the destination platform.
On the small platform, Angel stood alone. There was a three-meter-high metal sign below the platform, which read: "Cloud Library Platform".
The bottom of the metal sign stands on the cloud.
Well, yes, the cloud.
This platform is not on the leaves, but in the thick clouds. When Angel stepped on the white clouds, the touch from the soles of his feet was a bit like stepping on soft mud.
This is "cloud soil", the product of the reaction between special materials and clouds.
This cloud and soil is very broad, and when Angel was on the platform, he could see a huge library shining with golden light not far away!
The elder Angel was looking for was in the largest library in this savage cave!
The library is huge and there are many people. Compared with the library, people are like black ants, densely packed.
The reason why there was only Angel alone on the platform was because everyone else flew up. Just when Angel was in a daze, a middle-aged man in a blue wizard's coat and a star-moon wizard's hat came up. The witch, riding a broomstick, galloped past him.
When Angel approached the library, he could feel the splendid and majestic spirit even more. It is like a church with a true God, which makes people involuntarily fear and worship. But Angel knew that the temperament emanating from the cloud library was not awe in religious ceremonies, but awe for knowledge and truth.
Along the way, everyone had a faint respect on their faces, and no one even spoke.
Angel also walked into the library with this solemn emotion.
The interior space of the library is very large, and it is obvious that the magic pattern of the extended space is used. The collection of books is divided into 8,329 areas, as Angel saw on the map at the entrance. According to your own needs, you can teleport the array to different blocks.
Of course, the principle of equivalent exchange is also followed here. Whether it is to transmit or rent books, contribution points are required. Basically, the contribution points that the apprentices have worked so hard to earn are spent here.
Angel remembered that Flora had said that the elder seemed to be studying some kind of energy conversion in the 7920-7930 area recently.
Angel chose an unmanned teleportation array and prepared to teleport to the 7920 area. Without a purpose, he decided to search one area at a time.
When the bone card swiped through the teleportation array, a number jumped out: 100 points contribution.
When Angel saw this contribution point, his eyes widened instantly. He just watched an apprentice teleport to a certain area, and he obviously only had 1 contribution point? How did it get to him, 100 times more? !
When Angel was about to cry without tears, someone behind him urged him to leave quickly.
There are thirty teleportation arrays in the library, and they are full at this moment. Angel was too embarrassed to delay, he gritted his teeth and spent the contribution points.
When he came to area 7920, Angel still felt very distressed about this contribution point.
Angel thought that an area was at most ten meters in size, but what he didn't expect was that the internal space of an area was extremely large, it seemed to be more than 100 meters long and wide, and it was filled with major bookshelves. The book collection is more than a hundred times more than Sanders' library!
Angel casually glanced at a book on the nearby bookshelf: "Experience in Using the Super Magnetic Cannon".
Angel placed the bone card next to the book, and the bone card immediately jumped to the rental fee: 300,000 contribution.
300,000 Contribution Points…
Angel Tong has only 10,000 contribution points in total, and a book here is 300,000! Relative to 3000 magic crystals! The price is simply sky-high. It is estimated that few apprentices can have such a huge deposit.
It is estimated that the audience in this area is the official wizard.
If it is the area of the official wizard, then Angel understands why the teleportation fee is 100 points. This is setting a gate for wizard apprentices. In terms of the speed at which wizard apprentices make money, contribution points will never be wasted on this.
No wonder Angel looked at it, it was empty and there was no one in sight.
Angel walked along the center line of this area, looking all the way, hoping to find the elder Flora said.
However, after searching the 7920 area, Angel did not see anyone.
Angel could only walk back to the teleportation point, ready to go to the 7921 area to have a look.
The 7921 area transfer fee is still a 100-point contribution.
However, Angel's 100-point contribution, biting his lip and tearing, ended up being empty.
7922, 7923, 7924, and found 3 areas in a row, and spent 300 points to contribute, but it was still the same, not to mention the elder, not even the other figures were seen.
When Angel was about to go to the 7925 area, the transmission fee actually increased to 300 points!
Angel only felt dizzy, thinking about leaving, but felt unwilling. In the end, he gritted his teeth and spread to the 7925 area with a sad face.
After arriving in this area, Angel searched for people as before. Halfway through, Angel suddenly found that at the end of his right hand there was a bookshelf with a different color than the other bookshelves, shining a faint silver light.
Angel walked over out of curiosity.
Found that the books on the bookshelf are all alchemy-related books? !
"Alchemy Manuscripts - Energy Stabilizer".
This is an alchemy manuscript for making an 'energy stabilizer'. Angel remembers that he once recorded a "Basic Collection of Alchemy Basics" in the prison chamber of the prison ladder, where he saw 'energy How to make a stabilizer. It seems to be a very basic alchemy tool.
Why is the color of this bookshelf silver-white, is it because it contains books related to alchemy? Angel used the bone card to cross the "Alchemy Manuscript - Energy Stabilizer". When he saw the number displayed on the bone card, his heart throbbed suddenly.
"Leasing fee: 1.1 million contribution points."
1.1 million contribution points? ! This amount is too scary!
In the "Basic Collection of Basic Alchemy" recorded by Angel, there are nearly a thousand methods of making basic alchemy utensils, and the energy stabilizer is only the most basic one.
And the most basic one is more than one million rental price if it is taken out alone, that is tens of thousands of magic crystals! Angel couldn't believe his eyes.
If you follow this pricing, wouldn't the "Basic Collection of Basic Alchemy" cost over 100 million contribution points
The "Basic Collection of Basic Alchemy" is just one of the alchemy books recorded by Angel. Other intermediate alchemy, advanced alchemy and even some special alchemy, if you take it out, I am afraid that the price is really unimaginable!
"I didn't expect alchemy books to be so precious." Angel murmured in a low voice, so it seems that he is actually an invisible rich man... It's just that he didn't dare to sell the alchemy books he recorded, just like Jon taught that "every man is innocent, but he is guilty." Before his own wings were full, the alchemy book was sold in exchange for not money, but a self-made sword.
"It's impossible to sell, but he can learn." Angel thought to himself, there are ready-made teaching materials, and they are still gradual, and it would be a waste to not learn.
However, learning alchemy still has to be ranked further back. His main task now is to step into the circle of extraordinary people and successfully advance to an apprenticeship. Everything else is behind.
Angel left the silver-white bookshelf and continued his journey to find someone.
Just when Angel thought that there was still no drama in this area, he suddenly found that in a corner, there was an old man who appeared and disappeared, like a soul, sitting in front of a table, writing and drawing.
Looking at the strange old man, Angel's eyes lit up.
"found it!"
…
There are three ancestral spirits in the barbaric cave: the tree spirit of the tree of eternity, the mirror princess of the world in the mirror, and another one, the old man in front of him.
—The most erudite in the southern region, the wise man of the cloud library, and the old book.
Shu Lao is also an ancient ghost. He is wise and calm. More than 50% of the books in the entire cloud library are written or edited by him. It is rumored that it is a true spirit born in an ancient book, so the most The most important thing in diagnosis is books.
He has never left the world in the mirror, and even rarely leaves the cloud library. Even so, he still won the title of 'the most learned in the southern region'.
However, erudition and specialization are two different things. Erudition means knowing a lot of things, and specialization is the constant in-depth and excavation in a certain field. There is no difference between the two, but for wizards, they must be specialized.
Shu Lao knows a lot of things. Many special skills of wizards are passed down from Shu Lao, and Shu Lao has even instructed legendary wizards. Therefore, Flora recommended Shu Lao to Angel.
After Angel got close to Shu Lao, he saw that he had been writing something, so it was not easy to disturb him, so he had to stand aside and wait.
This wait is ten hours.
Angel's feet were numb, and the old man still had no plans to stop.
Toby originally squatted on Angel's left shoulder, then switched to the right shoulder, then ran to the hat, and finally fell asleep, and was placed in the chest pocket by Angel.
The sky outside had begun to get dark, and Angel tentatively shouted softly, "Elder Shu?"
The old man still buried his head, with thoughts and considerations flashing on his face from time to time, and he didn't pay any attention to Angel at all.
