Chapter 56 Weird Things in the City
Gothe's life as the owner of the medicine garden finally started to become busy.
The attempt to use the primary endurance potion will continue for some time.
The spell model of [Blade Protection] was successfully constructed two days after mastering [Reading Magic].
At this point, the number of spells in his spell library has expanded to twelve.
In addition, during this time, he and the apprentices in the medicine garden planted the batch of medicine seedlings he had just bought.
· Anyone who has ever been a farmer knows that the early stages of planting any crop are the most troublesome and require careful care.
The same is true for medicinal plant cultivation.
Preparation of nutrient soil before seedling planting, soil loosening, seedling planting, fertilizing and watering.
After a series of work, everyone is very busy.
However, looking at the medicinal seedlings growing vigorously in the medicine field, Gothe still felt a sense of satisfaction lingering in his heart - these seedlings would eventually turn into golden Sean gold coins and enter his pocket.
It was not until the 22nd day of the Green Leaf Month that the second set of basic magic potions was announced to have been consumed, and Gothe took the time to temporarily end his life as a "farmer".
Rose Magic Store.
"Are there any basic magic potions for sale?" Like the Netherlight Potion Store, they did not put basic magic potions on the counter. Gothe asked the clerk directly.
This time he changed to a potion store.
First, I am afraid that frequently purchasing basic magic potions from the same potion shop will attract the attention of interested people.
The second is to ensure that you will not be "ripped off" by the Netherlight Potion Store, although the possibility is very low.
It turned out that the clerk at the Netherlight Magic Store did not lie to him.
In the Rose Potions Store, the price of a set of basic magic potions is also 6 gold and 10 silver.
Gaode thought for a moment and bought 6 sets directly, costing 39 gold.
If you just buy one or two sets, you will have to go to the potion shop every few days, which is not only inconvenient but also wastes time.
After this large expenditure, the cash on hand shrank to 24 gold again.
Spend money like water.
It is said that the poor are poor in literature and rich in martial arts. Compared with the mages, they seem to be just like that.
Taking the six sets of basic magic potions packed by the clerk, Gothe noticed a group of city guards hurriedly walking past the street outside the door.
This is not the first time Gaode has seen this scene today.
When he came over, he saw several groups of city guards patrolling with serious expressions.
In the past, the city guards would not have been so diligent.
"Is there something big going on in the city? Why are the city guards so busy today?" Gao De asked smoothly.
"Don't you know, customer? Strange things have happened in the city these days!" The clerk heard this and showed a surprised expression.
After leaving the Rose Potion Store, Gothe's brows were still not straightened, and he was worried.
Although Hogan City is not as big as the city with a population of one million in the previous life, due to the overall environment, the disappearance of the population is not a strange thing at all.
It shouldn't cause too much trouble.
There are only two possibilities for the city guards to be so concerned. One is that someone with high status has disappeared, and the other is that the number of missing people has reached a threshold.
Whether it is the former or the latter, it is a terrible thing.
After thinking about this, Gothe turned around and came to Pierre's Grocery Store again.
When in doubt, go to Pierre.
This little old man is mysterious, and his shop is located in the business district in the center of Hogan City. People come and go all day long. If he doesn't know some inside story, Gaode won't believe it.
But these are all secondary reasons.
The main reason is that Pierre is his only "connection" in this world so far.
In a grocery store.
"There was a family near the business district, and the whole family disappeared inexplicably."
As expected, Pierre was well-informed and knew some inside information.
"In just one night, the person lay down at home and slept, and disappeared the next day."
"The daughter of this family is the cousin of the wife of the city guard captain, so this matter was not pressed."
“It was a good thing if we didn’t check, but we found out something was wrong when we checked.” At this point, Pierre’s voice gradually became softer.
Gaode quickly approached, "What do you say?"
"It's not just a few families. Over the past half month, there have been more than a dozen households with dozens of people sleeping at home. As soon as daybreak, the whole family disappeared without a trace."
"It's just that the families who disappeared before were all from the civilian area, so that's why No one has paid attention to it. "
"The city guards went to the scene to investigate, and it is said that they found nothing except some slime of unknown origin."
"There are no clues about the identity of the murderer, or whether the missing people are dead or alive, or how they disappeared." At this point, Pierre's expression became serious.
"I don't know if anyone will be missing tonight. If there are still people, things will be a big deal."
Gothe nodded in agreement.
The city guards made such a big move today, clearly showing a strict investigation posture. If someone is still missing tonight, it will be equivalent to beating the city guards in the face.
The dare to hit the city guard in the face like this not only proves the murderer's audacity, but also shows the murderer's confidence.
"Then it depends on what happens tonight." Gao De said.
If nothing happens tonight, at least everyone can feel a little more at ease.
"Oh, by the way, boss, have you ever heard of Siris Magic Academy?" Since he was already here, Gothe asked casually.
"How come you haven't heard of it?" Pierre did not take Gothe's question seriously, and said casually: "This is the Royal Academy of Magic in this country." It's just such a magic academy." Pierre nodded, and inadvertently revealed another piece of news to Gothe: "If you can enter it and study, you will reach the sky in one step."
"That can still be false," Pierre said firmly: "In addition to the royal family and the descendants of the Seann nobles, Sires Magic Academy only recruits students once a year."
"This time we are recruiting students from outside. Although anyone can apply, there are a lot of applicants. However, the enrollment requirements of Siris Magic Academy are extremely strict. Without excellent mage talent, it is impossible to be recruited." Pass the assessment to enter Siris Magic Academy. "
"And ninety-nine percent of those who pass the assessment to enter Siris Magic Academy become second-level mages."
"Entering Siris Magic Academy is equivalent to stepping into the second-level magician with one foot. What do you mean by not reaching the sky in one step?" Pierre asked.
Gaode could only nod silently when he heard this.
In Hogan City, first-level mages are rare, let alone second-level mages. They are absolute masters.
"Then it is located in the royal capital?" Gao De hesitated.
"Of course, where can the Royal Academy of Magic be located if it is not located in the royal capital?" Pierre became interested and said a few more words: "This is an academy established at the same time as the royal capital, Saint-Sean City, and has a history of thousands of years."
"How far is it from Hogan City to Saint-Sean City?" Gothe asked reluctantly.
"That's quite far, it should be several thousand kilometers away," Pierre sighed, and shook his head, "Even I have never been to the city of St. Sien. As a citizen of the Principality of Sien, it is a big pity that I can't see the royal capital of my country."
