Afterwards

After a seven-day "travel", Rey and Kane finally reached their destination-Karana City. Fortunately, they did not encounter the "wood of the dead" as the Baron called them, and of course, they did not. To the "friend" of the businessman who loves to be dead, Rey has a faint hunch that this wasteland and the "wood of the dead" that do not know whether they exist will one day intersect with himself again.

"Oh~~Karana City, I'm here~~~" Standing on the small hill where the strong walls of Karana City can already be seen, Kane yelled with his gun, looking down. It's a bit like a knight with a majestic dream, but if you listen to the second half of it, those who abide by the knight's way will definitely be tempted to beat him!

　　 "Pretty girls, wait for my handsome and suave Kane knight to rescue you, hahahaha~~".

　　 Rey puts on a "I don't know this guy" but walks down the mountain bag with an expression.

　　 "Konoka City, I hope I can gain useful knowledge…" Unknowingly, Rey's eyes once again haunted the blue magical light!

Karana City is located in the border area of ​​the Kingdom of Caro, but it is surrounded by mountains to the west, and the Airl Wasteland (the wasteland through which Rey passes) to the east. There are canals flowing through it, and transportation and freight are very Convenient, it can be said that its geographical location can be attacked and defensive. Therefore, it is an out-and-out strategic location. Although the Kingdom of Caro is located in a barren area and has not had a war for many years, it has been fighting with Di in recent years. The relationship between the Kingdom of Lorn was tense, and Karana was at the junction with the Kingdom of Dylan to the south, so there were many more troops in the city of Karana.

　　 Rey and Kane walked towards the gate together. A huge crimson flag hung above the gate. The flag was decorated with a rather abstract griffon. The flag fluttered in the wind, looking very imposing. The 20-meter-high city wall is made of large blocks of granite. There are still many deep scratches caused by sharp weapons on it. Together with the angular stone bricks, it has a strong history. The breath came over.

At the city gate, some people and businessmen who entered and exited were standing in line waiting for the soldiers to inspect. The soldiers were all round and rude. They unabashedly demanded bribes from those entering the city. There was an old man in shabby clothes because The "paid" bribe failed to satisfy the guard, so he was pushed to the ground, and the guard kicked the old man in the leg cursingly.

And there is a smaller side door beside the main gate of the city wall, which seems to be used for the nobles and professionals to enter and leave alone. Compared with the hustle and bustle of the gate, the side door looks much cleaner, and ordinary poor people are far away from there. There was only an old man dressed as a warrior sitting on a wooden chair, who appeared to be the gatekeeper of the side door. Rey made a rough perception and found that the old man who was drinking with a small sip was an apprentice warrior of the first level. From the perspective of age, it belongs to the type of hopeless promotion.

　　 "I don't want to line up here for a long time, now I want to go into the city to find a place to eat~ have a meal, and go in there quickly, the old man must have no guts to stop." Kane stretched, pointed to the side door and said.

　　 Rey actually had this idea in his mind, so he carried his staff and walked to the side door.

　　 The old janitor saw a man dressed as a mage and a man dressed as a knight approaching, he stood up quickly and took out a piece of parchment from his arms. He raised his head and took a sip of wine and stood in the middle of the door.

Seeing this scene, Rey's face became gloomy, looking at the old man's posture as if he wanted some "benefits", but Rey now only has five gold coins, although for ordinary people's families, one gold coin is already half a year's expense. , But it can be said to be extremely rare for Rey who wants to learn knowledge as soon as possible. He is not like inexplicably wasting "favorite fees".

　　 "If that old man asks , , for money, , , will shoot him and drive away"! Kane next to him had an expression of indignation. The money on his body was so little that he was almost gone, and the one-week long journey turned this impatient guy into an active volcano. The greedy guard stopped, and everyone would have the urge to beat someone.

　　 Rey doesn't think it will be difficult. After all, he and Kane are both level four professionals (the upgrade is still very fast in the early stage). It is unwise to offend two level four professionals for a little money. An old churros fighter should understand this.

Sure enough, the old man did not reach out for money like a soldier at the gate. He just asked Rey and Kane to register their profession and level. He didn't even ask about their names. When he saw that Rey and Kane, who were about fifteen years old, were actually level four. As a professional, the old man dropped the parchment on the ground in shock.

　　 Seeing the old man's "unbelievable" expression, Kane triumphantly released his apprentice-level power and strode into the city gate, and deliberately framed the armor on his body, regardless of the Rey's contemptuous eyes.

　　 Entering the city, a city scene full of medieval characteristics is revealed before Rey.

As a "military city", in order to facilitate the deployment of the army, Karana is a road paved with gravel. In the tender season when the air is humid, little moss grows on the side of the stone road, which is Karana A lot of green has been added to the city. The city gate is facing a market, and many shops are written in popular shop names in large letters, usually the owner's name plus the items they sell, such as Sibak's clothing store, Guge fresh meat store, etc. Many merchants who have not rented a shop also set up stalls on the side of the road to sell their products to everyone passing by. Although the distribution of various shops is chaotic, they give people a feeling of prosperity.

"I said, buddy, what plans do you have next?" Kane patted Rey on the shoulder, looking like an "iron buddy" talking about everything, but Rey stepped away, "What do you have? intend"? Rey didn't answer, he asked Kane back.

"I~, , , is going to the Adventurer's Union to start the risky career of my super-great Kane Cavaliers." After that, he turned and walked to the lively food vendors , But now~ I have to eat a big meal first, to reward myself~".

　　 "Then, goodbye" Rey finished speaking, and turned to another deserted street.

　　 "Goodbye~~" After Kane waved his hand casually without looking back, he began to bargain with the vendor owner happily.

——–split line——–

Rey is actually very happy to part ways with Kane, because although Kane looks out of touch, seems carefree and "sunny", in fact he is a smart and cold-blooded person, and Rey is watching people. This aspect is still very accurate, especially for people like Kane in his bones. Although you don't have to worry about the teammate being stupid when working with this kind of person, cooperation is absolutely guaranteed in terms of efficiency, but you have to cooperate in the process. Guard against each other, otherwise, as long as there is enough interest, the two people who lived and died with good brothers in the last second will definitely pierce each other's heart with the knife in the next second, so Rey is more willing to cooperate with people in the good camp. After all, as long as you behave hypocritically, you don't have to worry about being stabbed in the back by your teammates. At the critical moment, those "righteous knights" will also give up their lives for justice, which can be said to be the best quality meat shield.

Rey is now walking straight to a very iconic building, that has a high spire, the building materials are real "blue bricks and blue tiles" of the assembly, that house is the countless members of the Mage Union One of the branches, the banner on the roof is printed with a nine-petal purple-red flower, which is the symbol of the Mage Union-the flower of Weis, although I don't know why the Mage Union made the whole body of this branch green. , But the conspicuous wave of magic still made Rey sure from a few miles away-this is the Mage Union.

Rey walked into the mage guild, which can be said to be very deserted. The floor of the mage guild seems to be carved with a whole piece of quartz. It is splendid and magnificent. Although it is also aquamarine, it also emits a very bright light. The wizard's union is almost entirely illuminated by this "fluorescent floor", so that the light from the bottom up greatly enhances the wizard's sense of mystery, but the price is that in addition to the flashy effect of Sao Bao, there are only all Kind of inconvenient.

　　 There are very few people in the Mage's Union, only a few young mages wearing grey robes and unable to see their faces gathered at a small door to listen to what an old mage said.

The receptionist of the Mage Guild is a dumb-looking alchemy puppet. It can be seen that this little puppet was not carefully made, and it has not been maintained and repaired for a long time. Many parts inscribed with the magic circle are exposed outside and walked up. Every joint crunched on the road.

　　 The alchemy puppet stretched out a thin iron arm to the Rey, and the golden paint on the mechanical arm was cracked and peeled off.

　　 I saw a magic circle released from the end of the puppet's arm, and an operation panel similar to "holographic projection" appeared, but the picture quality was a bit blurry.

　　 You can see that there are several options written in general text: join the wizard guild, consult, publish tasks, purchase items, receive tasks, transfer tasks, and purchase knowledge.

　　 However, only the first four options are shining, while the last three options are dimmed.

　　 Rey clicked on the option to join the Mage Guild, and saw a wave of fluctuations in the panel, and the text on it changed to four lines:

"Please type in your name"

　　 "Please inject magic power to record the magic mark"

　　 "Notes for members: None"

　　 "Members enjoy benefits: the right to receive tasks, the right to transfer tasks, the right to purchase knowledge,"

Rey sighed in his heart, "This seemingly backward world is actually a bit advanced." At the same time, he was a little surprised at the rules of the Mage Union, although he had known from the inheritance of knowledge that the Mage Union could be said to be the loosest. One of the organizations, but this kind of rules that are no different from the strictness of the study group system is too loose.

　　 But Rey still decided to join the union. His current reserves of knowledge are far from enough. He needs to acquire more knowledge and learn from the experience of his predecessors. To get this, it can be said that joining a force in the early stage is indispensable. Even in a loose and loose organization like the Mage Union, Rey never believes that it will sell really important knowledge.

After only a few seconds, Rey's application to join the Mage Union was passed. He almost couldn't wait to open the knowledge purchase column. Rey plans to buy one or two alchemy potion formulas, and he is buying some basic alchemy equipment, so he can make it skillfully. When taking medicine, you can get a steady stream of funds-after all, his parents didn't have any money left, and obviously they were not proficient in alchemy. There was almost no knowledge of alchemy in his memory, and Rey had to rely on himself.

　　 Rey opened the apprentice-level alchemy potion column, and a dazzling array of potion names appeared on the panel.

　　Soothe the nerves potion, secondary meditation auxiliary liquid, moxa crystal, cold potion, secondary wind element concentrate......…
