As a transmigrator with a golden finger, Gevis wants to work hard.
However, his strength doesn't allow it. He, who wants to work hard, was chosen by the powerful Countess and became the h...
Chapter 611: A Way to Make Money (Three in One)
After having a hearty breakfast in the cafeteria, Gervis walked leisurely towards the comprehensive teaching building of the college.
Of course, although Gervis walked briskly, his heart might not be so beautiful.
"A breakfast cost me three gold coins! Gold coins are really useless in the Holy Continent!"
He began to worry about his money-making projects again. His gradually empty wallet was like the whip of reality, always making him feel oppressed.
Gervis thought that he would never have to worry about gold coins after becoming king, but he didn't expect that he would be driven here before he could even sit on the throne.
Moreover, being alone in an unfamiliar environment, Gervis found that he really seemed to have no clue of making a fortune easily.
The wine and oysters were originally a matter of luck, as grapes and garlic happened to appear in their territory.
At the same time, he has a large number of subordinates. With one order, the serfs will rush to deliver the grapes to his castle in good condition.
But now, not only am I alone, I also have no resources to develop myself.
Before going to bed yesterday, Gervis actually thought about whether he could imitate the novels in his previous life and create some things from his previous life to make money.
For example, glass. Although this world already has colored glaze, the color of the colored glaze in this world is unstable and contains a lot of impurities.
This is a way to make a fortune, but Gervis has no idea how glass is made or what ingredients are needed.
The only thing he knew was that sand could be used as the main material for firing glass, because quartz sand was required as a material for glass.
As for the rest, he was completely in the dark, so this approach was completely unfeasible.
"Alas, if I had known I could travel through time, I would have memorized the formulas for glass, cement, etc. even if I had to memorize them by rote. Now I am using the homemade brewing method I memorized when I was a child."
As his thoughts fluctuated, as the crowd continued to move forward, Gervis finally arrived in front of the comprehensive teaching building. In the end, he could only sigh and abandon all his random thoughts.
"Harry!"
Just as Gervis walked to the front of the teaching building, Lachi, who had been waiting for a long time, saw him with his sharp eyes and then shouted.
"Master Lachi!"
When Gervis saw Lach, he walked straight over so that Lach could show him the way around the room. Otherwise, Gervis would not know which classroom he needed to go to.
"Harry, you don't have to call me Master. We are classmates now!"
When Lachi heard Gervis's name, he immediately and enthusiastically asked him to change his name.
"Okay, Lucky!"
In the past, Laci had helped him a lot, so even after the mission was over, Gervis couldn't just change his name, otherwise it would make people think he was ungrateful. Now that Laci had proposed it himself, Gervis naturally had no reason to refuse.
"Harry, did you see Zenia when you came over here?"
Gervis and Lach stood together outside the gate of the teaching building. Although Lach was talking to Gervis, his eyes were constantly looking at the students in magician robes, looking for something.
After looking for a long time without any results, Lachi asked Gervis.
“No!”
Gervis naturally knew what Laci was planning. Asking Zenia was fake, but asking Adela was real, because Adela must have come with Zenia.
"Then let's wait a little longer, and then we can go into the classroom together and sit together!"
Lachi was slightly disappointed, so he continued to look into the distance.
“Here it comes!”
After Gervis accompanied Lach and waited at the door for two or three minutes, Lach's eyes suddenly lit up and he became excited.
Gervis followed Lackey's gaze and saw Adela and Zenia walking towards the entrance of the teaching building.
However, at the same time, Gervis saw another person, who was the young man named Warren from yesterday.
Warren was now also following with two male companions a few meters behind Adela and Zenia.
"Why is that bastard Warren back?"
Naturally, Laci also saw Warren, who was not far from Adela and Zenia, and immediately let out a low curse.
Then, Laci quickly walked towards Adela and the others.
Seeing this, Gervis had no choice but to walk towards Adela with Laci.
"Adela, Zenia, you're here!"
"Larch-san, Harry-san!"
When Adela saw Laci and Gervis coming over, she greeted them with a smile, and her eyes stayed on Gervis for a moment before moving away.
"Hey, isn't this classmate Lachi?"
"It's been a long time since we last met, Lachi-san. It would be great if Lachi-san also had a talent for magic. I think we could become good friends!"
At this moment, Warren, who had left Adela and Zenia, also saw Lucky and Harry appear.
So he immediately came over and pretended to greet Lucky enthusiastically, but in fact he wanted to interrupt the conversation between Lucky and Adela and mock them at the same time.
Although Warren has not yet found out the specific details of this Harry, he is very familiar with Lach.
There are only a few people in the academy who know Adela's true identity, and Warren knows that Lucky is one of them.
So, even though Laci was a bit of a loser, he was still wary of him.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Warren, even if I have a talent for magic, I don't think we can be friends."
Lucky was not afraid of Warren's open and hidden sarcasm. Warren was the most powerful suitor of Adela.
However, his persistence in pursuing Adela was also what the other suitors hated the most.
Because even if everyone wanted to pursue Adela, they would do it in a very graceful manner and just stop at the right time, not daring to cause Adela's disgust.
But Warren is different. Not only does he pester Adela, but he also privately threatens those who want to pursue Adela.
Only with a few suitors like Laci who have some background, Warren doesn't dare to use tricks in private.
"Student Lucky, Student Harry, let's go to the classroom first, or the instructor will be here soon."
Adela was also helpless. Warren was very annoying, but she had no choice but to ignore him.
If Adela and Laci were just ordinary classmates in the past, they would definitely enter the classroom without caring about anything else.
But since they had experienced adventures together in the tower of Nehum, Adela regarded Lach as an ordinary friend, so she called Lach before leaving.
Of course, a big factor in this is also because of the presence of Gervis.
It was because of the adventures they had experienced together that Adela transformed Laci from an ordinary classmate to an ordinary friend.
As for Gervis, he regarded Adela as a close friend because of her recognition of his character and other aspects.
A rich lady like Adela can't help but have some princess syndrome and is full of yearning for brave knights.
Although she and Gervis have only known each other for a short time, Gervis's fearless attitude and courage to stay alone make Adela regard Gervis as a warrior, so she is not opposed to making friends with Gervis.
"Okay, Adela!"
Laci, who was originally a little annoyed by Warren's ridicule, became like a victorious general when he heard Adela's words. He smiled brightly at Warren and quickly followed Adela's footsteps.
Warren stopped at the back, looking a little unhappy.
"Damn it! Just because I missed an adventure, not only did that Harry show up, but even that loser Lucky, Adela's attitude towards him actually changed!"
Adela used to have this attitude towards everyone, not too enthusiastic, nor deliberately cold and distant.
At that time, Warren was the one who could get in touch with Adela the most because of his identity.
Unexpectedly, just because she missed an adventure, Adela actually regarded Lucky as her friend, and also the unknown Harry.
While Warren was angry at Lucky and Harry, he was also angry at his father.
It was his father who forced him to accept a mission to the Canyon of Thorns, which caused him to miss the opening of the magic tower of the wizard Nahum.
Otherwise, he would definitely go with Adela on this adventure. Even if Adela was unwilling to take him with her, he would do everything he could to join her, and even bring his own people to follow.
If that were the case, what happened today would never have happened.
"Master Warren, they've already gone in!"
As Warren's expression changed from gloomy to bright, a fellow magician student beside him reminded him.
"Let's go!"
Warren heard the reminder and immediately stopped delaying. He nodded and walked towards the door of the teaching building.
"Hume, did you do what I asked you to do yesterday?"
As he walked towards the gate, Warren suddenly thought of Harry, so he asked the student next to him:
"Master Warren, it was too late when you told me to do that last night. The person who handles the admissions procedures must have gone off work, so I plan to do it at noon today!"
"Well, when you get any information about Harry at noon, come back and let me know as soon as you can!"
Warren nodded. Since Harry was so close to Adela, he had to investigate whatever their relationship was.
Also, although he couldn't be sure whether Harry had given the Moonlight Fruit to Adela yesterday on purpose, he still lost face.
If this Harry didn't have any background, he would naturally have to be warned in the future.
"Yes, Master Warren!"
…
When Gervis followed Laci, Adela and others to the classroom on the first floor of the academy, he found that the classroom was extremely large and could accommodate three or four hundred people.
They quickly found seats in the center, where there were plenty of empty seats for them to sit in a row.
But not long after they sat down, Warren walked in and sat in the row behind them.
“It’s really haunting!”
Laci muttered quietly, but did not conflict with Warren again.
A few minutes later, the classroom was already full of people, most of whom were students from the Knights' House, and magicians only accounted for about one-tenth of the population.
And Gervis also saw that most of the people in the Knights' Branch were indeed big and strong. No wonder Laci was envious of Gervis's admission into the Magic Branch.
Although the classroom they were in now was filled with students of low ability, it seemed that even in the higher-level classrooms upstairs, the ratio of magicians to titled knights was no different.

…
After the classroom was full of people, a middle-aged tutor walked in soon after, and the classroom became quiet temporarily.
"Students, last time I talked about how in the Land of the Falling Gods, due to the riot of spiritual energy, neither magic power nor fighting spirit can be absorbed by us humans. So in this class, let's talk about how to survive in the Land of the Falling Gods..."
"Although the spiritual energy riot in the Land of the Falling Gods makes it impossible for us to replenish our fighting spirit or magic power after we have consumed it, we humans have the Holy Tree."
"And the holy trees in each holy city can allow us humans to occupy a place in the Land of God's Fall, because the holy trees have the effect of calming the riots of spiritual energy."
"Of course, the effect of the Holy Tree is also limited by distance. The stronger the Holy Tree, the wider the range it can affect. The same is true in reverse. The weaker the Holy Tree, the smaller the range it can affect."
"With the comfort of the Holy Tree, the turbulent spiritual energy will return to calm, and then we humans will be able to restore our combat effectiveness in the Land of the Fallen Gods!"
"Of course, in addition to us humans, other races also use their own sacred objects to occupy a place in the Land of the Fallen Gods."
"For example, the orcs' totem stone pillars, the elves' ancient trees of life, the dwarves' ancient furnaces, and so on!"
"In addition to the various races in our Holy Continent, the indigenous cities in the Divine Meteorite also have their own sacred objects that can suppress the aura of riots..."
"What? There are still natives in the Land of God's Fall?"
“How come we haven’t heard of this before…”
Just as the instructor was explaining to himself, after he finished speaking the last sentence, a lot of discussions immediately broke out in the originally quiet classroom. It was obvious that many people did not know that there were indigenous people in the Land of the Fallen Gods.
"Has everyone never heard of the existence of indigenous people in the Land of God's Fallen before?"
The instructor in front was not surprised that the students suddenly started talking. Instead, he waited for everyone to talk for a while before raising his voice and speaking again.
The instructor's words spread through the special sound amplification magic circle set up in the classroom, immediately suppressing the discussions of the crowd.
At this time, everyone shut up obediently, because they knew that the instructor would definitely give them an answer next.
Sure enough, the next moment, the middle-aged mentor continued to speak.
"In fact, I will explain this knowledge to you in the next course, but since it is mentioned now, I will just briefly explain it to you for now!"
"We have said before that the Land of the Fallen Gods is a mysterious but dangerous place. In fact, the dangers do not only come from the undead, monsters, and other strange creatures."
"Instead, there are the indigenous inhabitants. These indigenous inhabitants have the same intelligence as us, but their races are diverse!"
"According to our ancestors' speculation, these races were probably the slaves of the gods in the past. After the gods fell, they luckily survived, multiplied, built cities and lived to this day."
"The Land of the Fallen Gods will be temporarily closed for several years every thousand years. When it reopens several years later, the place corresponding to the entrance will change."
"And the result of this is that every time the Godfall Continent opens again, we will encounter these indigenous cities after entering."
"For thousands of years, every time the Land of God's Fall was reopened, our ancestors had to fight a hundred years of war with these natives in order to drive them away." "And everyone present now has just encountered such a situation, so I told you this news, otherwise it would be useless for you to know about it."
Although the instructor only mentioned it briefly, after he gave the general information, the students finally understood the reason and began to whisper.
"There is such a thing. My father never told me about it. They are servants of God! I don't even know what those races look like. It's really amazing!"
After listening to this, Laqi's face was full of excitement, and he was obviously full of curiosity about the Land of the Fallen Gods.
"Servants of God, I wonder if they have ever seen the true God!"
Zenia did the same, pulling Adela's arm slightly with her little hand and asked excitedly.
Gervis didn't say anything, but he was also curious in his heart. However, as a king, he naturally wouldn't be as childish as Laci and Zenia.
Adela was the same. Although her beautiful eyes were full of curiosity, she just smiled slightly and did not speak.
“Haha! Although those natives are nominally the slaves of the gods, the gods have existed for who knows how many years, perhaps tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years. They are just the descendants of the gods’ slaves. Otherwise, how could our Holy Continent drive them away? It’s a good thing that they haven’t invaded the Holy Continent like the undead!”
At this moment, a slightly disdainful voice came from behind their ears. It was Warren.
"snort!"
When Lachi and Zenia heard Warren's slightly mocking words, they just snorted coldly and did not respond.
Because although Warren's tone was sarcastic, what he said made a lot of sense.
What kind of existence are gods, and how can those who can become slaves of gods be weak? It is estimated that any few of them can bring great disaster to the human race.
So this time, Warren has left them both speechless and unable to refute.
At this moment, the instructor on the podium spoke again.
"Okay, I mentioned earlier that the Holy Tree can calm the rioting spirits. Now let's talk about the other two methods."
"The first method is to use the special areas within the God's Falling Land. In these special areas, due to certain special factors, the surrounding spiritual energy will become calm, allowing us to practice and recover our fighting spirit and magic power."
"I cannot describe this kind of place to you in detail now. If you are lucky enough in the future, you may have a chance to encounter it. But remember, these special places are often dangerous."
"Let me give you an example. For example, there is a fountain of life in the Land of God's Fall!"
"Yes, it is the Fountain of Life, exactly the same as the Fountain of Life of the Elves. We humans discovered it once more than two hundred years ago, but it was in the restricted area where the Undead live!"
"When people encountered the Fountain of Life, they found that the spiritual energy within a few miles of the Fountain of Life was very peaceful! But later, due to the appearance of the Undead, we can no longer get close to it!"
"Okay, this is the first point. Just remember it and have an impression of it. Although such special areas exist, they are very rare."
"And the method I am going to talk about below is the most common one, and it is also the main method for us to explore the Land of God's Fall. That is to rely on magic potions to replenish fighting spirit or magic power!"
"So, next time you enter the Land of God's Fall, be sure to bring some magic recovery potions before leaving the city to explore!"
The instructor was very dedicated and the students listened with great interest.
Although there are some playboys like Laci among them, they are all extraordinary people and have a strong curiosity about the Land of the Fallen Gods. Such knowledge is sometimes more important than cultivation.
No matter how high your cultivation level is, you will sometimes encounter desperate situations. Learning more seemingly ordinary knowledge like this can effectively avoid falling into desperate situations.
"Magic potions. I must bring more of them with me when I enter the Land of God's Fall next time! And I must bring the highest quality ones, so that safety is guaranteed!"
Laci had forgotten the unpleasantness caused by Warren's ridicule and was now yearning for the Land of the Fallen Gods.
Because it is not only full of dangers, but also has many treasures waiting to be discovered. It can be said that the Land of the Fallen God is an adventure place that any young person yearns for.
"High-quality magic potions are not cheap! A high-quality magic or fighting spirit recovery potion costs 15 gold coins. Are you sure, Laqi?"
Hearing Laci's words, Zenia also joked in a relaxed manner.
"Of course I am. If I can find a legendary equipment, I will definitely make money even if I buy a thousand of them. It's a pity that I don't have the storage space like Adela. It's inconvenient to carry so many potions with me!"
Lachi couldn't help but say this with envy, and Zenia looked at Adela's wrist with envy after hearing this.
But Gervis's focus at this time was not on them, but on thinking rapidly in his mind.
After listening to the conversation between Laci and Zenia, Gervis suddenly thought that he seemed to have found a way to make money.
"Magic potions, yes! Why am I so stupid? Magic potions seem to be very profitable!"
When Gervis obtained the space ring in the magician's tower, he also obtained a magic potion manual, which contained many recipes for preparing magic potions.
For example, psychic potions!
Didn't Adela venture into the tower of the wizard Nehum in search of the psychic potion? In the end, it was Gervis who gave her one in the name of the God of Death.
Even a rich lady like Adela finds it so difficult to find the psychic potion.
If he could make the psychic potion, Gervis was sure that he would make a fortune!
What is the most profitable business in the world?
That is of course a monopoly!
As long as you have a monopoly, you can make money no matter what you do!
Thinking of this, Gervis became restless!
