Mage's Union

Feeling Malthus's kindness and respect, William also very politely expressed his gratitude to Malthus and said he would definitely go to his residence for tea and gossip.

Wait until William sent away the bishop's messenger Malthus, before seeing the carriage approaching, has leaned over some of the service staff gathered around William, enthusiastically help him store his luggage, pack his room, ask him whether he also need to purchase other furniture or daily necessities.

William naturally until these service staff so warmly entertained him, largely because of the influence of Malthus's position, this is not put on the heart, just let them clean the room as soon as possible, and then find him something to eat.

A resourceful waiter immediately said: "Sir, here for the convenience of your lordship dining, set up two different flavors of the dining room, I can go to call a meal for you over."

William thought about it and said, "I'll go with you, and on the way you can introduce me to this community."

The waiter immediately agreed and enthusiastically guided the way for William, while his words also generally explained the situation here.

As an asset of the coronal church, most of the waiters here are also relatives of the church staff, with clean backgrounds and resourcefulness, and some secrets are not afraid of their disclosure.

The Church, in order to facilitate the daily life of the friars, deliberately set up various service places here, specifically for them to provide services, also not open to the public, so the scale is not large, but extremely exquisite.

The current diocesan friars have been in a state of shortage, it is difficult to replenish qualified fresh blood, the occupancy rate of the community is not high, which is one of the reasons why William is particularly valued.

Understanding the general situation, William also walked to the door of the restaurant, after giving the waiter a few copper coins as a thank you, he stepped into the small restaurant lurking between the greenery.

Because today is a church workday, plus it is the afternoon, the restaurant is not dining customers, two waiters are lying on the table dozing.

William looked around and did not see anything to eat. He also did not bother the two young people who were sleeping but walked to the back of the restaurant itself.

At this time there is also no one in the back kitchen, but there are many leftover buffet dishes at noon, William found a clean plate, put some cheese, ham and bread, and took a bottle of encapsulated milk, went back to the front of the restaurant to find a table, sat down and finished eating these things, and then left the restaurant and walked around in the community to familiarize himself with the environment.

Even the king could be assassinated in the 'throne', and he didn't feel completely safe once he reached the church's territory.

Familiarizing himself with the terrain, stocking up on props and other very important pre-battle preparations had been engraved on his bones over years of fighting and had become an instinct.

Once he had seen all the nearby buildings and had a general impression, he left the community known as Baromo Street directly in the church's carriage and officially entered Phoenix City.

The city's level of architectural craftsmanship is much higher than the village level settlements seen before. As the capital of Bilges Province, Phoenix's tall walls are 100 feet high, shaped like a fat starfish, with the emblems of the gods lined up on them, making it impossible for evil to climb over the walls and enter them.

There are also many gun positions arranged on the walls, through the cannon powered by the magic crystals is placed on it, waiting for the incoming enemy.

The streets were not as crowded as one would expect, probably because most players had not yet arrived in the city and the NPCs were still at their posts.

A city like Phoenix is like a sponge that regularly absorbs the villagers and townspeople living around it to do work in various workshops and then releases them periodically, forming a unique landscape that players jokingly call the morning rush of magic and the evening rush of theology.

The fiery industrial production of magic did not attract William's attention; he knew they were lucrative, but not an asset that a solo player could manage, and if he wanted to start a similar workshop, he would have to recruit some manager, whether NPC or player, to help him manage the industry.

Horseshoe hurriedly crossed over these shop-work-integrated primary factories, leaving the soon to be dead behind them. Soon mass industrial production will come and these stores will basically go bankrupt or be annexed.

Continuing along the main road, the surrounding buildings also gradually became grand, newly constructed buildings mostly using the nearby production of light gray marble, and decorated with black walnut wood structure, very beautiful, these are mostly the homes of the new nobility, such as factory owners or newly ordained nobles.

Moving on, the buildings gradually become older, stately, materials have become more classical black and red brick and wood mixed structure, and occasionally can also see a building or two being knocked down and rebuilt, from the site of the materials, the owner of the house is also ready to move into a more robust, beautiful, practical new-style buildings.

William looked around through the car window, because it is still in the early game, the streets basically cannot see the player's figure. Only a few NPCs and him in the carriages, to and from the rush.

William ordered the carriage driver to go to the destination in this neighborhood, is a tall gray marble building, but not the hands of artisans to shape, but through the incredible magical spell, growing out of the earth, one piece of molding.

This is the Mage's Union of Phenix City, which occupies the main part of the building, with some spare space rented out to its affiliated unions, such as the Potions Union, the Technology Union and the Drawing Union.

This is also an important place for players to change their profession to a magic-related profession. If players fail to decipher the notes in the Mage's Relic and take up a magic apprenticeship during the Novice Village stage, they can also change their profession from any profession to 'Magic Apprentice' by losing 33% of their EXP.

Of course, choose part-time 'magic apprentice' is also a way, but each subsequent level of promotion requires additional EXP.

Although William had occasionally passed through Phoenix in the past few years, he had never entered the mages' union here, so he got a little lost for a while.

The lazy mages obviously do not have any sense of hospitality, the wide and empty hall seems to be just to facilitate the placement of the huge stargazing instrument, or to show off the flawless crystal dome that was molded in one piece with the main building, and it is impossible to find any attendants who can guide the way.

William also did not want to explore a place where the average NPC level exceeded 40 and was obviously not very friendly to the servants of God.

Just as he was in some distress, a question came from the shadows: "Hello, do you need help?"
