Chapter 237 Salt and Fire Tavern

In the blink of an eye, more than an hour later.

Richard and Gero left White Rock Tower Academy and appeared in a tavern in White Rock City.

This tavern called "Salt and Fire" is a very common one in the whole of White Rock City - the area is not big or small, the food is not bad, the service is not good or bad, everything is medium. The main reason why Richard and Gero chose it is that it is not far from the White Rock Tower College, so there is no need to walk a lot. After all, the two were just going to take a simple rest and have lunch by the way.

Because of the daytime, there were not too many people in the hall of the tavern, and the occupancy rate was only about 30%. Most of the people were sitting here and there, eating coldly. In the corner, there was a long table full of people, talking loudly and drinking, which was the only lively event.

In the middle of the hall, there is a high platform. Sitting on the high platform was a woman in her thirties, dressed in emerald-colored clothes, with a normal face. At this time, the other party was playing a harp, and at the same time, he was singing something in his mouth, with a gentle rhythm, which sounded relaxing, but it was only that.

Compared with the professional artists in the big tavern, the women's playing and singing are a bit old-fashioned, and because they are not proficient, they often mistune. Fortunately, most of the taverns didn't know how to appreciate it, and no one was booing.

In the corner, Richard and Gero were sitting at a square table, and Richard was thinking about things while listening to the voice of the woman on the high platform.

It has to be said that through talking with Bucky, there is still a lot of information that needs to be digested.

First is the identity of the girl Ruth. According to what Bucky said, the other party is the kind of real princess. She has never been angry or tired since she was a child, so before she cleaned the room by herself, she behaved so badly. .

The other party's country is a wizarding country, so the reason why the other party came to White Rock Tower Academy is not to become a wizard, but to know more about the wizarding world.

The extent of the other party's wealth is also exaggerated. They can even lend money to others to the extent that they can't afford it and use their bodies as collateral. I'm afraid that their net worth can get hundreds of thousands of gold coins, or hundreds of high-grade crystal coins. In contrast, a prince like Gero is simply a parallel importer-after all, when he was in Cuijin City, Gero emptied all his savings, and it was less than 10,000 gold coins.

Then there's Ruth's country.

According to Bucky, the reason why Ruth is so rich is entirely because the country she lives in is a legacy of a former empire, which should be true.

According to the knowledge I learned from reading books in the library in the past few days, on the east coast, there were indeed several wizarding empires integrating wizards, kingship, and churches, and they had a long-term black terror rule.

Later, a series of accidents led to the division of several empires, which turned into the appearance of small countries on the east coast and dense wizarding organizations.

For this reason, a relatively powerful wizarding organization like the White Rock Tower is highly vigilant against kingdoms that have the potential to grow into a new empire, lest the once black rule come again. Macbeth's trip to Egypt to assassinate the king is an obvious example.

I just don’t know that the country where Ruth is located is the remnant of that empire. According to records, the oldest one seems to be called the “Barenthenon Empire”, and the latest one is called the “Black Spirit Empire”.

In addition to that, the burning of the quaint ring in the library earlier today should also be taken seriously.

The abnormal shape of the quaint ring is most likely related to the secret of the White Rock Tower that Mullen said, but what is the secret of the White Rock Tower?

Richard thought so, and after serving the guests at the previous table, the guy in the tavern walked over and handed the two menus to Richard and Gro.

Richard retracted his thoughts and looked at the menu.

Gero, who was next to him, made a noise and ordered, "Bring me a piece of white bread, a piece of broth, a piece of fried mushrooms, a piece of lettuce, a piece of good beef... Uh, this is a bit expensive, forget it, just Want the first few."

"Yes.

The guy nodded in agreement, slightly contempt, then turned his head to look at Richard.

Richard said, but it was simpler than Gero: "A white bread, a small plate of jam, and a mushroom soup."

The guy's eyes couldn't help but become more contemptuous, thinking that he might have encountered two poor ghosts.

Richard ignored it, handed the menu back, and put a silver coin: "Tips."

The man's eyes lit up instantly, from contempt to respect. Anyway, the tip is the uncle. As long as the tip is high, a glass of water can be served carefully.

Of course, Richard didn't give a tip for nothing, and asked: "The bread should be fresh, not overnight, the jam should not be adulterated, and the mushroom soup should not be served until it's cold. Understand?"

"Understood!" The man nodded vigorously, took the menu and tip and left.

After a while, the food that Richard and Gero asked for were delivered, and Richard began to eat, continuing to think about what he thought before.

Grou spoke up.

"Your Excellency Richard." Grow looked at Richard and asked, "What do you think of Professor April's "Apprenticeship Introduction"?"

Richard looked up, saw Gero, and asked, "What do you think?"

"Me..." Groo said, "I think I should take elective studies. After all, I haven't even completed three life reshapings, but I just can't understand it when I read the book. If someone guides me, it may be faster. And The course starts next week, so it's too late to sign up now."

"If that's the case, then what else is there to say, let's learn." Li Cha said, "Have you made up your mind?"

"Um... but money..." Grosli hesitated.

"What's wrong with the money?" Li Cha asked, "Is the fee for elective courses not enough?"

"No no." Grow shook his head, "I mean, I might not be able to pay the money I borrowed from you for a while."

"When I helped you board the giant ship in Cuijin City, which high-level crystal coin did I pay?" Li Cha asked.

"Well, yes." Gro nodded, "Now you and I both know that a high-level crystal coin is almost a thousand gold coins, and I am only close to a thousand gold coins in total. If I want to take some courses with high fees, I won't give you the money for the time being, so I can only find a way slowly, so..."

"It doesn't matter." Li Cha said lightly, he really didn't care about this kind of thing, "Just treat it as an early investment I gave you to help you become a wizard. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can also ask I borrowed money, as long as the amount is not large, I can lend it to you. When you become a real wizard, pay it back to me."

"Becoming a real wizard?" Grow's eyes flickered, slightly confused, "It feels so far away, I'm not sure if I can be promoted to a second-level apprentice within three years."

"Then you have to work hard."

"Uh, okay." Gros said, and began to eat. At the same time, I made up my mind to study hard. Otherwise, I am sorry that he abandoned his status as a prince to endure hardship here, and I am even more sorry that Your Excellency Richard has helped him all the time.

Then, he heard a strange noise behind him, followed by...

"puff!"

Gero felt a strong force, and before he could react, Li Cha pressed his hand into the broth bowl in front of him.
