Chapter 5 First Class Wizard Apprentice
After crossing a path, Yin Lai tightened his tight clothes and put the Yintar he had brought with him in his arms.
He was heading to the market where herbs were sold.
The market is located in the east of the royal city of Junlin. Yin Lai had to pass through the slums and urban areas before reaching it. During this process, Yin Lai chose to take the main road.
After all, although this is a royal city, don't think that the shadows here are the same as the bright places. There are many gangsters, thugs, and idle people in the dark alleys.
Soon, he came to the market.
After a brief inquiry, Yin Lai walked into a pharmacy.
"Are there any white koji flowers?" In front of the oak counter, Yin Lai knocked on the table and asked the people inside.
The teller was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties or fifties. He had a pair of brown eyes and looked very weak. But when he heard Yin Lai's voice, his eyes gradually began to light up and he answered with a smile:
"Some, some, one white song flower costs twenty copper tals."
So expensive!
"Why is it so expensive?" Yin Lai asked. After the white song flower is activated, the aura it emits can only last for an hour. One flower is definitely not enough. It will take at least a week, that is, seven flowers.
Seven flowers equals one silver tal and forty copper tal.
"Guest, you don't know about this white song flower. This flower grows in the dark places of swamps. There are often poisonous snakes and scorpions around. It's very difficult to collect!"
"Every white song flower is hard-earned!" the clerk shouted.
"It's cheaper, I'll buy more." Yin Lai ignored it and said directly.
"Are you a pharmacist?" the clerk asked curiously. You know, most people don't need a lot of herbal medicine, only those pharmacists do.
"no."
"Oh, excuse me." He wasn't a pharmacist, so the clerk wasn't that excited anymore. Then he looked at Yin Lai's outfit and said, "Well, if you buy more than ten flowers at a time, I can give you five coppers for each flower.
Tal, this is already a great discount, more than five tals are cheaper than two copper tals."
"Then give me ten flowers." Yin Lai thought for a while and said.
Seven flowers may not be enough, but ten flowers should be enough.
And there is no need to worry if there are still Baiquhua left at the end of the day. Baiquhua is one of the ingredients in many basic medicines and is a very common medicine material.
"Okay." The clerk smiled, then walked to the small room at the back. When he came out again, there were ten more packaged white koji flowers in his hand.
Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand.
Yin Lai paid and left directly.
…
Return home.
Yin Lai took out the Baiquhua.
The white song flower is an off-white flower with fleshy-like petals and roots hanging down like tentacles. It is hard to imagine that this seemingly ordinary plant can actually help to perceive the elemental world.
Crush a white koji flower and put it into a container prepared in advance, and a faint herbal fragrance will immediately come out.
Smelling this smell, Yin Lai felt a sensation all over his body, as if his whole body was translucent.
Knowing that time was precious, Yin Lai sat directly on the bed and began her first meditation of the day.
The refreshing smell filled the room. Yin Lai closed his eyes and began to perceive the elemental world.
In the haze, a little bit of elemental light began to appear in his consciousness, that is, the elements, but at this time there seemed to be a layer of separation between him and the elements, which could be seen but not touched.
The smell of Baiquhua constantly stimulates Yin Lai's spirit, shortening the distance between them little by little.
An hour later, Yin Lai opened his eyes, showing excitement.
Although he still did not perceive the elemental world this time, he could feel that with the help of Baiquhua, he would definitely be able to perceive the elemental world within half a month, or even less.
"Soon."
Baiquhua is indeed effective, but it is a bit expensive.
If Yin Lai had enough money at this time, he could even directly buy a large amount of Baiquhua. I believe he might be able to sense the elemental world in less than three days, but life is helpless and poor!
But it doesn't matter, as long as you advance to apprenticeship, everything will be fine.
…
Ten days later.
"Today is the day." Yin Lai looked calmly at the last white song flower in front of him.
With the help of Bai Quhua, Yin Lai finally touched the boundary of the elemental world, even just one step away. Today is the day when he breaks through to the first-class apprenticeship.
Crushing the white song flowers as usual, Yin Lai fell into meditation.
In the void consciousness, Yin Lai was like a ghost, while all around him were almost clear elemental particles floating freely in the air.
Finally, suddenly, it disappeared like an invisible film.
There was no longer any obstacle between Yin Lai and the elemental world. A large number of elemental particles instantly overwhelmed Yin Lai, transforming this weak body that was exposed to the elements for the first time.
At first he wanted to observe this state carefully, but as the elements came into contact, he felt his head getting heavier and heavier, and finally fell into a deep sleep after ten minutes.
It was already late at night when Yin Lai woke up.
"Is this the wizard's apprentice?"
Yin Lai sat up. Even with his eyes open, he could still feel the looming elements around him.
His mental power seemed to have achieved some breakthroughs, which made Yin Lai feel that his surroundings suddenly became much clearer. He could even recall everything that happened a few days ago as long as he thought carefully about it.
Of course, these are not the most gratifying things. The most gratifying thing is that he can finally learn the zero-ring witchcraft of quick memory.
"There is still time, everything can come in time." Yin Lai finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If he really hadn't broken through to the first-level apprenticeship after three months, it would be really troublesome. But fortunately, it only took him two months and ten days to break through.
To be honest, it had been a long time, but Yin Lai felt that it was okay. After all, there was no one else around him to compare with. Speaking of this, Yin Lai discovered something strange.
That is, in the two months he has been in the library, he has not heard any information about wizards at all. It seems that this is really a kingdom of knights.
"It seems that the owner of that book is not simple!" Yin Lai thought of the author of the notebook, Salin Metatrin, but didn't know who he was?
"Forget it, don't think about that anymore, let's just concentrate on solving the magic model of fast memory first." After thinking for a long time without an answer, Yin Lai simply gave up. Anyway, these things have nothing to do with him at the moment.
His first goal now is to learn to memorize quickly.
According to the precautions for performing witchcraft mentioned in the notes, Yin Lai concentrated his mental power, and then used his mental power to carve out a model of quick memory in his consciousness.
Because it was his first time, Yin Lai was very careful with every step, but because he was still very unskilled, he finally failed when constructing the entire rune.
Since this did not consume much of his mental energy, after reflecting and resting for ten minutes, he started to draw the model again. After three failures, he finally completely carved out the runes belonging to quick memory.
