Elven Survival Manual

The movements of the monsters are so loud, it is impossible to hide it from anyone, not to mention they didn't mean it.

As soon as the news spread, the nobles and local magicians already knew about it.

The floating population of Adadala is larger than the population of the country. In addition to a large number of merchants, there are also many nobles and magicians from various countries. Don’t forget the former, the latter mainly come here to find magic materials—but there is nothing like Adada. Pulled more places for trade items now.

Among them, many magicians chose to settle here because of Adadala's convenient conditions. Most of them know some magic, but their level is not high enough to be favored by the kings and nobles of their country, that is, monsters. The low-level magician in the eyes.

There are too many magicians, and it is inevitable that there will be some contact with each other. In order to better protect their own interests, these magicians formed a group and established a magician association in Adadala. Although it is an unofficial organization, it is still quite Some local nobles and businessmen who can't afford private magicians will come to this association to find them and buy various medicines and magic props that they think have magical effects.

When the members of this magic association heard that someone recruited a large number of talented people to be magic apprentices, they just thought it was very ridiculous.

Learning magic is a very expensive thing, it takes a lot of time and money, but when you learn it, you will be sought after by others. At that time, whether it is fame, fortune or money, there will be so many people. It is flocking to, but very few can really learn.

Not only because of material conditions, but also because in one-to-one master-apprentice teaching, not every magician is willing to teach his apprentices everything.

They all think that those who release this kind of news are definitely deceiving everyone, but in fact they have other ulterior motives.

A junior second-level magician said disdainfully: "Maybe they are going to be abducted and sold. Didn't you read that even women can take part in the test? Then they will definitely choose those who are good-looking and beautiful." Or strong, such slaves are very sought-after."

"Those who went to the test are also stupid. They really think that there is such a good thing in the world. A group of ignorant pariahs who want to be magicians? They can't even support themselves. Can they have money to buy magic books and magic materials? ?”

Most of the books on the Vive Continent are made of parchment. They are expensive and the quantity is very scarce. Not to mention ordinary people, even some tribal chiefs with not so rich families can’t buy them, but magicians are learning magic. It is necessary to write a lot of notes, and a magic book that records spells is even more essential, and this kind of magic book is usually passed down from master to apprentice, and from apprentice to future apprentice. , if the master is not satisfied with the apprentice, he will not even pass the magic book to the apprentice at all.

For example, in this magician association, there are only two people who have their own master's magic book, and they are the president and vice president of the association. The other magic books are at most copied from their master and some of the things they have learned Magic spells, the more advanced ones can't be seen at all.

But this one is enough to make many ordinary people with magical talents stop outside the gate of magic.

Secondly, the magic materials for maintaining the mainland are mainly various gems, and the price of gems has always been high, and ordinary people can afford them there.

So this scale is not large, but when the influential Magicians Association in Adadala heard the news, they all thought it was just a funny and lame lie.

Moreover, they also know that it is not a trivial matter to perform a magic check on people.

People like the Magicians Association, before being accepted by their respective teachers, did a long test, and none of them took ten days and a half months, and it was impossible to get a result. It's not like the one outside the city, I heard The time before and after the examination did not exceed 5 minutes.

Even if you don't see the actual situation, it's just as false as it sounds.

But on the second day after the test began, when they knew that even the ordinary guards among those "liars" were magicians, they became less calm.

"What's a magic water polo? It's just the lowest level of magic." A magician said very disdainfully, but his face was not very good-looking.

The other magician also nodded and sneered, "Everyone knows that water magicians have low attack power, yet they let people who know water magic be their guards? These people are just using him as a front to deceive people."

Water magic is not very powerful among many magic classes, but on the continent of Weifu, it is a class that all magicians are eager to learn, and it is respected by all ordinary people, which means that even if you have no combat power , as long as you can gather water, there will be many people willing to provide you with shelter.

Because the magicians here generally believe that only other magicians of the same department can create magic items of this department, and there are even rumors from the outside world that the magic water condensed by magicians themselves has miraculous healing and beauty effects.

——The effect is indeed there, but at least it must be a healing magic that can only be used by mid-level magicians, but ordinary people don't know the difference at all, and magicians will not explain it clearly to them in order to ensure their status The fact.

Now, a foreign force that said it wanted to recruit a large number of magic apprentices, but it was using water magicians as guards?How ignorant people must be to do this?

Anyway, they are all kinds of "people" who look down on those outside the city, but there is something strange in their hearts.

So someone proposed to go to the scene to see the situation and find out what those people were going to do.

"I don't know how they can test so many people without being exposed. I heard that some children of noble families have gone to line up."

"They set up tents there, and people who didn't register to line up couldn't get in at all."

"Why don't we find someone to check it, so it's not the same situation?"

"That's the way to go. Find a few younger apprentices, and be careful not to be discovered."

These mages quickly arranged for three magic apprentices to go outside the city. All three of them were recruited by their respective masters. They were originally born in noble families, and now they are learning magic from their teachers. In front of the teacher, they bowed down and acted like little ones, but when they went outside, they were arrogant to anyone and asked themselves to be superior to others.

They took the teacher's order and went out of the city in a carriage. They also talked about this matter along the way, but there was a lot of disdain and contempt in their words.

"There is no way to expose such a lie, and those people are really stupid."

"It's just untouchables who are better than slaves. What can you expect them to know? They deserve to be cheated. Let's think about how to complete the task assigned by the teacher."

"I heard that there are too many people there now, and it takes a long time to line up. If it wasn't for the teacher's order, I don't want to stand outside for so long under the sun at all."

"What line are we in, what are our identities? Can those untouchables compare with us?"

"Isn't it? As long as we show our noble status, those people will give us their seats immediately."

What they think is beautiful, but the reality is skinny.

When they arrived at the place, the three magic apprentices were stunned by the huge crowds here. Let’s not talk about the long lines in front of the tents with no tails visible. There were even more people around, some clever businessmen and The peddlers have even brought their business here. Centering on the tents of monsters, various tents have been set up. Most of the tents are covered with carpets. As long as you buy something, you can feel comfortable inside. Sitting, sheltered from the hot sun in the sky.

Vendors carried things and walked through the crowd, selling water and food, and the business seemed to be very good.

When they came, they saw that one of the long queues of tents had people in black robes driving out a few people who wanted to jump in the queue, and confiscated their signs, obviously not planning to let these people People check out.

And those unruly people are still insisting that they are nobles, how can they be ranked behind ordinary people, and even cursed the guards who drove them away, with a very harsh tone.

As a result, in the next second, the cursed person was directly hit by a magic fireball thrown by a guard. The hair on his head was burned, but the skin was not damaged at all.

But even so, the burned person was still stunned by the magic fireball, and so was his companion. Someone soon realized that they were about to say something, and there was another dangling in the hand of the guard who did it. The unfired magic fireball—the fireball the size of a washbasin, was twice the size of the one he threw just now.

They couldn't see the guard's face, they only listened to his warning in a cold tone: "Keep scolding, do you think I will directly burn you into coke this time?"

I heard that what he said was not a joke, how dare those people make trouble, and ran away in despair with their companions who had no hair, eyebrows or even eyelashes.

Seeing them leave, the guard didn't know how they did it. The fireball the size of a washbasin disappeared in his palm, and then returned to his original post without looking back.

Originally, some of the people who lined up thought they were of unusual status. When those people made a scene, they were also a little ready to move, thinking that if everyone made a scene together, maybe they wouldn't have to wait in line here under the sun.

Unexpectedly, before they took any action, those who caused the trouble were kicked out of the team, not to mention their number plates were taken away, and those who were taught a lesson did not dare to fight back, so they could only run away in despair.

These thoughtful people immediately suppressed their small thoughts, and no longer dared to complain about queuing with a group of civilians, and continued queuing as quietly as chickens.

The three magic apprentices saw the whole process, and their faces were full of disbelief: "Is that a first-order magic fireball? My teacher can get a fist-sized one at most, and his one is too big, right?"

"Not only big, but how did you see him deal with the magic fireball in the end? Just take it back! Even the most powerful mage in the association can't do it?!"

Indeed, in fact, before this, although they have not formally started to learn magic, the magic apprentices who already have some common sense of magic have been told that once the magic is released, it cannot be taken back, and if it is forcibly taken back, it will be backlashed .

The appearance of that guard did not seem to have any backlash problems at all.

It is not easy for a magician to be able to achieve this level, even if he is only a first-level magician, but he acts as a guard for others.

The three apprentices also heard someone discussing next to them, saying that there were people making trouble before, and in the end there were also guards who beat people away, but it was not this one. The other guards used wood magic and wind magic, and even There are also water-type ones, each of which is described as extremely powerful by them. Although it is exaggerated, but comparing what they saw, if those guards are all of this level, what level will the magician who is checking in the tent be? ?And how powerful is that man who is said to be a great noble from outside who can recruit so many powerful magicians, and even let them condescend to serve as guards?

With a lot of questions in their minds, the three magic apprentices no longer dared to look at people with their nostrils. They obediently went to get their number plates, squeezed together with a group of people they thought were untouchables, and waited in line.

They were registered together, and the number plates were also together, but they were not scattered in different teams like others, but the three of them lined up in the same team together.

When queuing up, the three of them were also observing their surroundings. They soon discovered that the team they were queuing up were basically human beings without any mutation characteristics, and their hearts immediately trembled.

Those who have become magic apprentices naturally know the basic requirements of some magicians when selecting apprentices, and they also know that people without mutations are more likely to be selected than those with mutations.

Such a person would probably be considered a burden in an ordinary family, but in an aristocratic family, they would be well-educated, because they all knew that a person without mutation was more likely to become a magician.

Like them, the variation is relatively small, or basically no.

Now that they saw people like them in the same team, the three of them already believed in this test in their hearts.

It’s just that the people who entered the tent in front of them came out quickly, and unlike other teams, they queued behind this team for a long time, and the people who came out of the tent in front all looked frustrated that they were not selected. The three apprentices began to feel that these people must be deceiving.

Before they were selected by their respective teachers, they were taught some basic knowledge of how to perceive magic, and then went home to comprehend it for a long time. If they could feel the existence of magic elements, they would be recognized by magicians and accepted as apprentices , if you don't feel anything within a month, then you have missed magic.

The longest test here is no more than 10 minutes, and the short one is even less than 5 minutes after entering. It doesn't look like a serious test.

With this mood of suspicion and anticipation, their team moved forward quickly, and finally it was their turn to test.
