Chapter 35035: Mission Completed
"Luo Xi, my friend, are you sure you won't stay for two more days? There are still many places in the West that you haven't been to, and you haven't tasted the fine wine in the tavern in Windfall City."
"There will be a chance."
After staying in Blackstone Castle for two days, Luo Xi set out on his return journey on the morning of the third day.
Before leaving, he also gave Carol a gold coin with his spiritual mark on it, but it was not a promise, just a gift of friendship.
"Gurgle Gurgle~" The wheels rolled, the dust raised was flying wildly, and the tall Silver Wolf flag fluttered in the wind.
On the way back, Blackrock Castle arranged a carriage for Luo Xi and sent a team of knights to escort him. The leader of the team was Knight Lova, who was a formal knight.
In the carriage, Luo Xi leaned comfortably on the sofa. In front of him was a small table with exquisite snacks and hot milk on it. There was also a wine cabinet next to it. A maid stood beside Luo Xi.
It is said that this is the earl's car. These noble lords are indeed gifted in enjoying life.
"When I have money in the future, I can learn from them."
The carriages in the wizarding world are definitely more advanced than this. Space magic allows it to have a wider compartment, and stance magic allows it to be as smooth as walking on flat ground no matter how bumpy the ride is.
By then, I can also arrange some of my favorite snacks, drinks and drinks in the carriage, as well as maids. Well, forget about this, just get two alchemical puppets, preferably ones that can still fight.
Transportation is necessary. This world is too big. This time, even if it was just to go to the Witch Domain on the South Coast, it took Luo Xi so many days to travel through mountains and rivers. If he went to a farther place, who knows how long it would take.
Once I have the right means of transportation, I can take Nicole with me while traveling and practicing, sightseeing together, and snuggling together. It would be a very pleasant thing to think about.
"I just don't know how many magic stones this will cost."
Thinking of this, Luo Xi couldn't help but frowned again. Although the idea was good, its implementation was still too far from the goal. Just a carriage with a space spell cast on it would cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of magic stones, which was far from a luxury that Luo Xi could afford at the moment.
"It's about time to start thinking of ways to earn magic stones. We'll see when we get back."
Just like on Earth, apprentices have to start making a living on their own after leaving school, the Wizarding Alliance only protects apprentices until the end of the training period. After that, a large number of apprentices have to bear all their own training resources and even food and accommodation and other life necessities.
What kind of life you will have in the future is no longer planned by a tower, but is in your own hands.
Although joining the inner castle means you don't have to worry about training resources and daily necessities, wizard tools like carriages are not provided by the castle. Apprentices have to figure out what kind of wizard tools they want.
"It's time to hit the road."
Luo Xi opened the car window curtain and looked out.
Outside the window is a field. The ripe wheat stands neatly on the ridges, swaying in the breeze. It looks like a golden ocean, warm and comfortable.
However, at the end of the ridge is a forest, vast and lush, but full of unknowns.
The carriage sped along the dirt road, feeling a little excited and a little nervous.
More than a week later, Elemental Castle, Crow Ferry.
“Finally back!”
Standing on the dock, Luo Xi looked up at the towering castle in the distance. He used to think the castle was eerie, but now he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Have I unconsciously developed a sense of belonging here? Shaking his head, Luo Xi put these messy thoughts behind him. Now he should go and hand in the task first. The sun will set soon, and Doc will tell him.
The goblin who was handing over the apprentice's task was a goblin named Doc. I had dealt with him several times before when handing over experimental assessments. He had a bad temper and had to go off work after sunset. If the apprentice delayed him for more than a second, he would complain to him.
"Excellent, Padawan Roshi."
"You completed the task successfully and in excess, saving the nobles and clearing out a dark wizard for us."
"In view of your excellent performance, we will give you a 50-point rating"
Luo Xi passed the mission assessment with full marks again, but this was also expected. After all, he successfully rescued the nobles and also solved a dark wizard. Even the most demanding wizard would not find a reason to deduct points for such a result.
"This is your mission reward."
The goblin Doc handed over a bag of magic stones. Luo Xi took a rough look and saw that there were at least five or six hundred pieces.
He was surprised: "So many?"
You know, all the magic stones he got in the castle for three years were only a few hundred.
Doc gave him a half-smile and said, "Is that a lot?"
He used three goblin fingers to grab two magic stones from the bag and threw them upwards lightly, and the magic stones flew around him.
He sneered and said, "Open your horizons. You are no longer an apprentice. The magic stones that the castle gave you before were just pocket money."
"In the wizard world, magic stones are everywhere, as long as you have the means or the strength."
Doc snapped his fingers, and the magic stone fell back into Bag's hand.
He clapped his hands and went on to explain: "Of course, there are not only tasks here, but also rewards for you to eliminate the dark wizards. This is given by the alliance."
In a sense, every dark wizard in the alliance is a mobile ATM. The alliance has regulations that anyone who eliminates a dark wizard will be rewarded. The more powerful and noble the wizard, the richer the reward.
A group of bounty hunters were even created in the alliance specifically for this purpose.
"I see."
Luo Xi nodded, and then couldn't help but ask curiously: "Speaking of which, has the identity of the dark wizard been investigated? What is his purpose in doing this?"
It was almost sunset. If it were any other apprentice, the goblin Doc would not bother to talk so much nonsense, but the apprentice in front of him had scored full marks in both the comprehensive assessment and the task assessment. There was no need to doubt the future of such a genius.
"It's just a defective product," Doc explained.
Defective apprentices refer specifically to those apprentices who have wizarding talent, but their talent is very poor and it is almost impossible for them to become wizards.
"The castle had observed this a long time ago and found that there was really no prospect for him, so they didn't send a messenger to deliver an invitation to him."
Different from overseas where control is insufficient, wizards on the South Coast have formed a complete mechanism for the selection and screening of apprentices.
There are always some wizards and magical creatures active in the human world all year round, observing children under the age of thirteen. Once they discover and confirm that they have wizarding talents, they will arrange for messengers to contact them and bring them to the wizarding world.
"Maybe they were discovered by the Dark Forest again. These garbage dumps that can't recruit apprentices can only kidnap useless trash like this, either by stealing or robbing." Doc said sarcastically.
"As for his purpose in cursing his own father."
"Who knows?"
"These dark wizards are all stupid idiots with problems in their brains. They can never use normal logical thinking to understand what they do. Maybe they are just simply crazy."
Luo Xi was a little confused. He felt that the Castle's investigation was a bit too hasty.
But after all, this was not something that a mere apprentice like him could have a say in, so he didn't say anything more. After thanking him, he turned around and left.
Just came down the corridor.
"Roshi!"
A loud and powerful shout was heard, and Luo Xi turned around to see Alan standing in the corridor like a black bear.
Next to him was Ina, who was holding Nicole's arm.
The girl looked at her with eyes as clear as autumn water, her eyes did not blink, and her mouth was full of smiles. Thanks to my friend [缘来是你] for the 100 starting coins reward. It is the first reward I have received. Thank you so much.
