This year's college assessment focused on the control of magic power.

The same magic can exert different power when the magic output of the mage is different, so this year's college assessment is to test whether the students have mastered this point.

This was certainly not a problem for Gu Shi. He had already received special training in this area under Field's guidance, so this time he completed the assessment content in just a few days, giving himself a vacation that was almost doubled in length.

When they returned to the Mage Tower, Gu Shi thought that Field would let him stay in the Mage Tower to practice like he did during the last holiday, but Field had other arrangements for him.

After Gu Shi stayed in the Mage Tower for two days, Field found him and had a talk with him.

“You are now a fifth-level mage, but you spend most of your time in the academy.

It's not a good thing to be in a monotonous environment. I'll take advantage of this holiday to go out more, see the scenery of other places, and interact with different groups of people."

"I understand, teacher."

Gu Shi knew that Field hoped that he could experience more things and broaden his horizons.

He grew up in a peaceful and stable academy environment, and compared to the mages of the same level who had been working outside, he was indeed lacking a lot of experience.

Gu Shi asked: "Teacher, do you have any recommendations?"

Field replied, "There's nothing much to recommend. If you don't have a clear goal, why not go to the Adventurer's Guild and take on some quests to other cities?"

After he finished speaking, Field seemed to remember something and added another instruction: "Also, remember not to go to those border cities. They are not very stable there recently."

"Okay, I understand."

Gu Shi silently speculated in his heart, could it be because of Dean's incident? Now the situation has developed to this point? I just hope that the two empires don't really fight each other.

After responding to Field's request, Gu Shi followed his advice and went directly to the Adventurer's Guild. After looking around for a long time, he finally took on an escort mission to Root City.

He didn't know much about other cities in the Igrit Empire, and there was no place in particular he wanted to go, so he just went with the flow.

Two days later in the morning, Gu Shi met his employer of this mission, Frank, at the city gate.

"Hello, Mr. Frank, I'm Gu Shi, the adventurer who accepted your mission this time."

Seeing the team ready to go at the city gate, Gu Shi walked up and greeted the leading merchant.

Although there are many space props in this world, they are expensive, and space props with large capacity are even rarer. Ordinary businessmen naturally cannot afford them.

There are also additional fees for using the teleportation array to carry large goods, so there are quite a few caravans that travel between cities using carriages and guards.

Frank's attitude was very enthusiastic, "Hello, Mr. Gu Shi.

The adventurers over there have also accepted this escort mission just like you. We'll be taking care of our caravan's safety for the next period of time."

Professionals have a very high social status in this world, and ordinary people dare not conflict with them casually. After all, if a professional really gets angry, he may kill someone with a slap.

Although Frank is a businessman with a small fortune, he does not have the talent to be a professional. When facing these specially hired professionals, he does not dare to act bossy by relying on his status as their employer.

Gu Shi turned his head and looked in the direction of Frank's finger. The four adventurers traveling with him were a middle-aged man with a big sword on his back, a tall lady holding a bow and arrow, and two swordsmen who looked like brothers.

He was the only mage in the entire team.

But it’s also true that the reward for this task is actually quite low, and many people may not be interested in this small amount of money.

Gu Shi didn't care about the amount of the reward. He took this task just because he wanted to find a random destination. If he really wanted to make money, he would not have chosen this task.

Just look at the other adventurers who took on this mission and you will know that Frank's mission requires that only professionals at level three or above can take it. As a result, three level four beginners and one level four intermediate came.

Apart from Gu Shi, the only other fourth-level intermediate came with his brother. This was enough to show that the reward Frank gave was not much.

Gu Shi thought about the task details he had seen. If he remembered correctly, this task could be borrowed by up to six people. However, there were only five people on the scene, which was not even the original number of people.

Although many thoughts flashed through his mind at once, Gu Shi did not stop. He smiled and nodded to the four people and there was no other communication.

Gu Shi actually stood out a bit among these people. Not only was he the only wizard wearing a robe, he was also the youngest among them, with a little bird on his shoulder that looked like it had just hatched.

The other four people judged almost at a glance that Gu Shi was most likely a student of Congleton School of Magic, and probably had no experience in participating in this kind of mission.

That’s right, Gu Shi brought Shufeng with him.

These adventurers took on the missions for the money. They didn't want to take care of their children while doing the missions, so naturally they wouldn't have much communication with Gu Shi.

The five people waited there for a while, and Frank's caravan was ready to set off.

The caravan consisted of fourteen carriages in total. Gu Shi and the other five were divided into two groups. The pair of swordsman brothers were responsible for the rear, while the other three were in the front.

Gu Shi, the female archer and the coachman, a total of three people, sat on the frame of the carriage in front, which was a bit crowded.

However, Gu Shi did not complain. It was already good to have such conditions to escort the caravan. At least he didn't have to move forward on foot.

The man carrying the greatsword was forced to walk with the team, mainly because the greatsword on his back was too heavy. After getting on the carriage, the two horses could not pull him at all, so he had to walk by himself.

Only then did Gu Shi realize that the reason the other four people carried weapons with them was because they did not have space rings.

Gu Shi was just wondering whether he should take out his staff to appear more professional, but now it seems fortunate that he didn't do so.

Gu Shi sighed silently. He was really used to interacting with wealthy people. He had become so accustomed to them that he had forgotten that space rings were not something that ordinary people could afford.
