Lord of Arcane

Chapter 20 Trading
He went back to his dormitory first, took a wooden wine glass and filled half a glass of warm water (about 500ml) in the whirlpool in the bathroom. After that, Xia Duo took the wine glass in one hand and the bread in the other, and went to find his dormitory while eating.

02163 is Dean's dormitory number, while Chateau's is 02404, not far away.

On the contrary, the dense doors on both sides of the circular corridor were a bit strange, and Xia Duo subconsciously accelerated his pace.

"02163, that's it."

The door was closed, Xia Duo knocked on the door first, but no one answered, Xia Duo did not break in directly, but waited outside the door to eat.

At this time, many apprentices had already returned to the dormitory. When they passed Xia Duo, only a few looked at them with doubts, but they didn't stop to ask, and most of them didn't even look at them, as if Chardonnay doesn't exist.

What an incredibly rational and self-disciplined group of people!
Xia Duo sighed in his heart, if the school before his time-travel had such an atmosphere, it would be terrifying.

Although Xia Duo does not believe that so many people can go against the nature of pleasure, the fact is here—

There is no intrigue, no frame-up, no mutual friendship, and interpersonal indifference to the extreme.

Is the above official mage also like this?
This is true of several official mages that Xia Duo has dealt with, such as Master Leonard, the two mages at the registration office and the material application department, but he has also seen the scene of the collective carnival of the mages during the Midsummer Festival, which is really shocking. People are puzzling!

Obviously, the mages have their own set of life and social norms, which need to be discovered by Xia Duo.

The two loaves of bread were quickly eaten with warm water, and Xia Duo ate half full. Compared with the previous meals at the Old Neil Hotel, the food provided by the Mage Tower to the apprentices was simple, but it was much more refined.

Xia Duo didn't eat a single grain of sand or sawdust out of at least two pieces of bread. He was already looking forward to breakfast and lunch tomorrow.

……

After eating the bread, Dean hadn't come back yet. People like Shado who were idly wandering around the door were quite eye-catching. Although no one came to accuse him, their eyes were obviously contemptuous when they passed by.

However, at the moment, only Dean can be regarded as an acquaintance, and Shado has to bite the bullet and continue to wait. Before today, he had never felt guilty for waiting.

Sure enough, the environment can affect people the most!
Fortunately, after waiting too long, Xia Duo saw Dean from a distance. His features were still quite obvious. He had fiery red hair, which was quite rare in the Mage Tower.

And Dean also found Xia Duo who was waiting at the door of his dormitory. He couldn't hide the shocked expression on his face, and immediately walked towards Xia Duo, with a hint of jealousy in his tone——

"Xia Duo, we met again. I didn't expect you to be a real apprentice."

Seeing Dean again, hearing Dean's tone again, and the atmosphere in the mage tower he had seen before, Xia Duo's heart was settled, and he was more certain about his previous thoughts.

"Dean, we meet again, shall we just chat outside this door?"

"Oh, please come in."

Dean opened the door and invited Xardo to enter. The layout of Dean's dormitory was the same as Xardo's own, with one bedroom and one bathroom. After entering, Dean gave Xardo the only chair.

"Please sit down."

Dean seemed to be a little restrained. He sat down with Xia Duo, and then he sat down slightly on the edge of the bed and asked, "Xia Duo, what are you doing to me? I got that box of matches through a fair trade, so you can report it to me. It's useless to give it to Master Mage."

"Don't worry, I didn't come to you for a match, that match is already yours."

Xia Duo smiled bitterly in his heart, but he didn't expect that Dean's attitude would change just because his name was added to the mage's robe.But it was just right, Xia Duo said his intentions.

"You should know that I'm not familiar with Nise characters now. I would like to ask you to give me guidance, and in exchange, I can help you to ask Master Mage questions."

Yes, Dean is the bottom of the mage tower, a pure tool person who doesn't even care about his name. When he saw the mage robes on different apprentices, some had names, some didn't, Xia Duo had this vaguely in mind. idea.

Deal with Dean.

Xia Duo currently has no money, it doesn't matter, some only have the official apprentice status that Mu Yan provided him at the beginning, and this status can be questioned to the official mage in class.

Of course, Dean was chosen only because he was the first person to communicate with Shado.

If Dean is not willing, Xia Duo can also find other "unnamed" apprentices, and the channel to ask questions to the official mage must be hard currency.

Speaking of which, an apprentice like Xia Duo who is not qualified as a formal apprentice but has a formal apprenticeship status may be the only one in the entire Mage Tower.

He doesn't have the opportunity to ask questions to the official mages for the time being. Selling or exchanging the resources he needs is actually a good choice, and it's still an absolute seller's market.

Other apprentices who have the right to ask questions may not necessarily give others the limited opportunity to ask questions, and they may not be enough for their own use!
Therefore, after hearing Shado's proposal, Dean's first reaction was overjoyed, and then he was suspicious, "Really? As long as I call you Nise Text, you are willing to help me ask questions to Master Mage?"

"real!"

"Very good, I have always had a question about [Restoration] that I can't figure out. If it wasn't for this, I would have become a full-fledged apprentice long ago, Xia Duo, thank you so much, I will return the box of matches to you. "

Dean began to speak incoherently, and really took out the box of matches from the inner pocket of the mage's robe, and even grabbed a handful of silver coins, which was about to be stuffed into Shado's hands.

Xia Duo of course refused, "Dean, you don't need to do this, the matches are indeed obtained from your trade, and I have learned something from it, as for the silver coins, there is no need, put them away."

In fact, Xia Duo had thought about the problem of Dean deliberately delaying his learning progress in order to learn the [Repairing Technique], but then he thought about it, the opportunity to ask questions is so precious, and it would definitely be possible for other people.

Let's just say that Xia Duo himself, if faced with Dean's situation, he would definitely delay the other party's learning progress as much as possible in order to get more opportunities to ask questions.

Instead of switching to someone else, try it out with Dean first.

This is actually a learning contest, it depends on whether Xia Duo can learn words first, or whether Dean solves the problem of [Repairing] first.

Xia Duo still has experience in language learning. He must have certain skills if he can learn to speak the common language of Nise within half a year. Including the language before transmigration, he can be regarded as a language master who can speak several foreign languages. (Forced boss~~).

The learning methods contained in modern education seem inconspicuous, but they have been verified by countless people. Although Nexerel has been established for more than 800 years, in terms of education, it cannot keep up with the motherland before Xia Duo’s crossing.

It is true that there are groups of educators who have worked hard and researched to get the results. On the Netheril side, although there is an institution similar to a university like the Mage Tower, the indifferent communication between the apprentices is obviously impossible to collide. What an excellent way to learn.

Basically it depends on individual talent.
