Arcane Lord

Sevington.

The old city is still deserted and has not been affected by the snowmelt competition, but the new city is lively. In addition to spellcasters, there are also ordinary people who come from nearby.

Of course, even ordinary people will not have to work hard to farm. At least they must be small businessmen and the like to have the financial resources and energy to travel to Severton.

More of them are adventurers, but even adventurers are not the kind of adventurers who search for lost items or catch chickens and dogs for the people in various territories, but adventurers who can go deep into the forest and search for ruins.

Only these adventurers will have money, leisure, and even be able to talk to spellcasters.

It is said that treasures like the [Nese Scroll] were discovered by adventurers. Who wouldn’t want to have such a discovery again!

In the minds of adventurers in Netheril, only those who can search for ruins are considered real adventurers. At the very least, those who dare to go to border towns to hunt monsters like gnolls and trolls are the real adventurers.

When Sha Duo and Niya arrived in the new city, they saw lively crowds of people coming and going, among which the adventurers who clearly showed a strong aura were particularly eye-catching.

Most of these adventurers have scroll boxes hanging on their waists, exuding chaotic magical auras. Apparently there are many kinds of magic scrolls in them.

There are also adventurers in Savile Town, but among those adventurers, very few possess magic scrolls, because possessing a magic scroll requires the ability to use magic items.

Now in the Shado territory, apart from himself and Layton, among ordinary people, only Ava, Simon, Merry, and Atwood can use magic scrolls.

Among them, Ava is the trainer, and Atwood is the "former druid" who has lost his holy power.

After all, only two people have learned it.

I didn’t expect that there would be so many adventurers from Sevington using magic scrolls!

With this idea in mind, Xia Duo walked slowly towards the south arena along the direction of the crowd, and deliberately observed the adventurers in the crowd. Almost all of them were carrying magic scrolls, and there were also many magic items on their bodies.

This ratio is too exaggerated!

After pulling the magic net a little and weaving a soundproof barrier that followed them, Sha Duo said to Niya, "These adventurers are too rich!"

If you only look at individual adventurers, they are certainly not as rich as Xia Duo. After all, Xia Duo is also a spell caster, but if you look at the overall situation, these adventurers are too rich.

At this time, Xia Duo was short of money to "make gold" for Anytime Space. Looking at the adventurers who were carrying magical auras, like moving gold coins, he couldn't help but have the idea of ​​​​robbery.

Niya noticed Xia Duo's spell-casting movements, but she didn't take it to heart. Compared with those mages who opened the way directly with spells or even flew directly, the movements of the two of them were considered small.

Seeing Xia Duo lamenting the wealth of the adventurers, she also continued: "There are usually not so many people in Severnton. These adventurers are all from outside. Adventurers are all very rich. Otherwise, those Mage Towers produce To whom are the magic items sold?”

Of course, Nya said this casually. If the consumption of adventurers really supported the economic system of magic items, the economic system of Netheril would have been finished long ago. However, the proportion of the consumption of adventurers is not low. fact.

Niya's words reminded Xia Duo that the level of direct robbery was too low and the appearance of eating was too ugly. It was more elegant to use magic items to harvest.

…

After a while, the two came to the outside of the arena. This place was more lively than other places, surrounded by people watching the excitement and doing business. On the way here, Xia Duo didn't see many spellcasters.

It wasn't until here that the number of spellcasters increased. The arena didn't seem to be open yet, and Xia Duo didn't know what the organizers were doing. Shouldn't the audience be allowed in early at this time?

After all, most of the people who come to see the arcane competition are spellcasters. Even ordinary people must have extraordinary backgrounds or connections.

"Master mages, do you need a spell book?"

Just when Xia Duo was thinking about when they could enter, a middle-aged bearded man dressed as an adventurer stopped them, as if he wanted to sell some spell book.

Xia Duo looked this man up and down. He didn't carry any magic items, not even a magic scroll. He only had a poor-looking one-handed sword hanging around his waist.

"Do you really have a spell book?" Although he didn't quite believe it, Xia Duo still slowed down and asked.

"Sir, I really have a spell book!" As if he himself felt that such words were unconvincing, the middle-aged bearded man came closer and added in a lowered voice, "It is a real spell book!"

Chateau Raniya stopped. The other party's deliberate approach made him a little wary, but the "real spell book" still attracted him. Unlike the books that generally refer to recording spells, the "real spell book" the other party called "In fact, it refers to the magic items made by the mage to assist in casting spells.

Generally, only high-level mages who have mastered many spells need to make spell books to assist in spell casting. This type of spell book is similar to a collection of multiple reusable magic scrolls.

It will contain most of the spells mastered by the creator, and is almost considered a core secret of a spellcaster.

How could this thing be obtained by an ordinary person?

But if it is true, the value of this thing is huge. Most of the spells mastered by a high-level mage are difficult to price, as well as the spell book itself.

Xia Duo had long planned to make a spell book after he advanced. It might be a lot more convenient if he had a ready-made spell book for reference.

At present, Niya has not made a spell book because she has to make up classes. All Sha Duo knows is that Ai Burke has a spell book, and he has even seen Ai Burke's spell book with his own eyes.

Of course, he only saw the appearance. If he told Ai Burke that he wanted to borrow his spell book to study, there is a high probability that the other party would turn against him directly.

It is a common knowledge in the magic world that no one can get his spell book from a living mage.

…

He and Niya looked at each other, and both of them saw a suspicious look in each other's eyes. Xia Duo looked around. Because he and Niya were both wearing robes that looked extraordinary at first glance, others would hide from them. Even if they don't hide, the caster won't let ordinary people get too close. This is normal.

But it's not normal for an ordinary person to dare to stop the mage. Some people have already begun to cast curious eyes here.

Looking at the middle-aged bearded man in front of him, he also noticed the attention of the people around him. There was an anxious look on his face, and he wanted to get closer, but under Xia Duo's eyes, he just raised his feet and did not dare to come any further. He came closer, but his voice became lower:

"Sir, what I said is true. That spell book is definitely a real spell book!"
