074 Trading Tower

Inside the trading tower of the Wizard Academy...

A few green policemen were standing outside a shop on the second floor, shouting loudly.

"Get out! You greedy reptiles are nothing more than the core of the shadow wolf!" The shriveled old man standing at the door of the shop was furious. "Do you still want to sell it at the price of the Storm Lion's core? If you want to sell it, sell it, if you don't sell it, find someone else!"

The sudden scene immediately attracted Lei Meng's attention. With the noise, the originally empty hall on the second floor quickly became lively. Many people came out of the shops around the hall, watching what happened. place of contention.

Alifer, who was standing beside Raymond, laughed. He stopped Raymond who wanted to follow, and quickly explained.

It turns out that there are many underground creatures living near the Hongze Wetland, and these green-skinned goblins are a large tribe gathered nearby, and they are well-known for bullying the weak and fearing the hard.

Aliver sighed, shaking his head. "They actually wanted to sell the Shadow Wolf's core for the price of the Storm Lion's core. No wonder old Tori got angry."

Alifer, who explained to Raymond while walking, dragged Raymond up the stairs on the third floor, and continued to explain. "This is not the first time this kind of thing happened, and it will happen often in the future. If they were not descendants of the leaders of the goblin tribe, they would have been kicked out by the old Tori long ago. The things they provided were not as good as the old Toli I know, it’s impossible to get away with it.”

"Could it be that the trading tower doesn't prohibit them from fooling around like this?" Raymond, who followed Alifer up the stairs, felt a little strange.

A helpless expression appeared on Alifer's face. "Although they are a bit difficult to deal with, the materials that the goblin tribe can provide are still very precious. As long as they don't cause trouble in the trading tower, the academy will not ask."

Raymond, who was very surprised, couldn't help asking, but the enthusiastic Alifer didn't think it was strange, and he then explained in detail.

It turns out that the wizard academy allows these neutral or benevolent races to come to trade, which is also a reason for each to get what they need. The goblin race can obtain a lot of resources in the vast underground world by virtue of their numbers, while the wizard academy uses In exchange for the food they lacked.

In this way, although the goblin groups need to pay a lot of sacrifices to obtain the materials needed by the wizards, relying on the food provided by the wizards, the several goblin groups living near the Hongze Wetland are alive and well. Taste, far more than the same kind living in other places.

Raymond didn't continue to ask further questions. Raymond guessed that there must be other factors in this seemingly fair transaction, because for creatures like wizards, if there is no equality of strength, there will be no equality at all. of.

This is true in the category of wizards, not to mention these non-human races, their original sin is their weakness.

Following Alifer, temporarily putting aside the doubts in his mind, Raymond came to the third floor of the trading tower and stood at the stairs to observe.

The space on the third floor is a bit smaller, and there are even fewer shops. The operators of the shops on this floor are very boring. Even if they see someone walking into the shop, they ignore it.

According to Alifer's introduction, all the businesses here are spells and knowledge of wizards. Raymond, who soon walked into the shop, found that there were hundreds of memory light spheres neatly arranged in each shop. Put them on wooden racks one by one.

Alifer, who entered this floor, became a little helpless. "These memory light spheres condensed by first-level wizards all have viewing permission settings inside. Unless you spend magic stones to buy them, you can only see the quotations or brief introductions inside."

Raymond felt strange about the sales method introduced by Alifer. He casually picked up a memory light ball and infiltrated it with mental power.

Soon a piece of text written in the ancient Torrian language appeared in Raymond's mind. This memory light sphere contained an improved version of the fire spell, and the owner was a person named Alexandra. the wizard.

In the introduction, this fire attribute technique claimed that it could increase the power of the flame by 20%, while reducing the consumption by 10%. It was a very excellent improved technique.

After quickly browsing through the introduction inside, Raymond still couldn't help being frightened when he saw the price displayed on the wooden shelf.

A total of three hundred low-level magic stones!

"That's why there are no people here," Alif said with a wry smile, shaking his head and apologetically. "Such a high price is simply not something us apprentices can bear. If you are willing to browse here, then I will go down first."

Nodding his head, after Raymond exchanged spells with him so that he could contact him later, Raymond asked Aliver to leave first, and he started to browse among these wooden shelves.

Because all the contents of the memory light sphere are tightly protected, the sellers in the shop don't care if the light sphere is artificially damaged or the content inside is peeped.

Lei Meng, who was wandering between these wooden frames, could not see all the contents of these memory light spheres, but those introductions and explanations were all recorded by his chip, and as the number of Raymond's inspections increased, Some data available for reference has also entered the database of the chip.

For Raymond, this kind of knowledge in the memory light sphere, which is similar to a brief introduction, not only allows him to know the spells that the author is good at, but also allows him to master the detailed classification of spells. What is useful is that Raymond understands a key issue.

Improved technique!

It was also a fireball technique that a third-class apprentice could perform. After reviewing the records of the chip, Lei Meng found that the unimproved technique was like a standard version.

But after being improved by a certain wizard, the power of this spell can be increased by a few percent, and the consumption of mana can be reduced a lot. There are even spells that have been improved by a wizard. It is also greatly reduced, and even allows third-level apprentices to leapfrog the level to cast advanced spells!

The huge harvest made Lei Meng calm down. It took him half a day before Lei Meng checked all the memory light spheres on the third floor of the trading tower.

He could clearly feel those curious eyes behind him. After putting the last memory light sphere back to its original place, Lei Meng turned around and bowed to the shop operator.

Then, under the curious gaze of everyone, he walked towards the spiral staircase and prepared to leave.
