Archmage Of The Undead

Next, Huo Ling gained a certain understanding of this area through Guy's narration.

This area is collectively known as the Wilderness of Kutch, a vast wilderness where countless various spiritual tribes live.

Various goblins, kobolds, orcs, gnolls, halflings, lizardmen, ogres, trolls, half-dragons and more.

Because of their existence, this area has always been a place of chaos, and the place where the Green Vine Tribe is located is also a small and remote corner in the Wilderness of Kachi.

Because there is a city of walking zombies next to it, and these walking zombies will come out and run rampant from time to time, so many races have migrated out.

In the distance, there is a huge orc empire. They occupy a huge territory and are quite powerful.

In recent years, they have been trying to annex the Wilderness of Kutch, so they have been sending caravans and nobles to open up territory.

It would be impossible for Huo Ling to continue to lead the Green Vine Tribe to explore. There was a young red dragon and his slave on the mountain not far away.

If he wants to develop outward, he will definitely bump into this red dragon. He can't defeat this dragon now.

After understanding this, Huo Ling also had a simple understanding of this area.

Then, he calculated the current income he could get from the Green Vine Tribe, starting with the potions.

Currently, the Green Vine Tribe is planting cheap potions. After the next harvest is completed, Huo Ling will order all the most expensive ones, serpentine.

The serpentine is harvested every six months. From these two pieces of serpentine, which add up to half an acre of land, you can earn at least fifty magic stones from Blue Star.

The goblins collect it in the wild, and if they encounter suitable magic potions, they will bring them back. There are about ten magic stones every month.

In addition, Huo Ling can also purchase some low-level drugs from Blue Star to trade to troglodytes and kobolds. This part can also provide him with about ten magic stones every month.

In other words, Huo Ling can earn one hundred and sixty magic stones every six months.

This was so little money that Huo Ling couldn't help but scratch his head after doing the math.

Sure enough, it would be faster to make money by robbing the spiritual world races.

…

Returning to Blue Star, Huo Ling encountered a new problem. He had insufficient credits.

After purchasing the secret materials needed to advance to the black iron, Huo Ling only had twenty credits left.

Now if Huo Ling wants to learn a new first-level spell, he needs credits.

During the enrollment period, the school gave out five first-level spell exchange coupons, plus the one where the Eagle Eye spell was used, and there was only one left.

Huo Ling used this coupon, plus fifteen credits, to redeem two more spells from the school.

"Probing Eye" "Lesser Weakness Technique"

Exploring Eye

Spell effect: After casting the spell, you can obtain the target's basic attributes, including occupation and level.

Casting time: 3 seconds

Spell cost: 20 magic points

Casting distance: 15X mental power

Spellcasting restrictions: No information can be obtained after the target is one level higher than the caster.

Lesser Weakness

Spell effect: After casting the spell, it can weaken the target's attributes by 20% and reduce the recovery speed of magic power and fighting spirit by 15%.

Casting time: 3 seconds

Spell cost: 20 magic points

Casting distance: 20X mental power

Spellcasting restrictions: If the target is higher than the caster's level, the spell's effect will be reduced accordingly.

These two spells, one used to detect the enemy's intelligence and the other used to weaken the opponent, are both more practical.

In fact, Huo Ling still has several spells that he wants to redeem, but now he is limited by the credits and has more than enough ambition.

…

"Teacher, is there any good way to obtain spells?" When he was in doubt, of course he came to seek help from the teacher.

Gold-level professors need to come in handy at this time.

He Wenhan saw Huo Ling coming and couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "What, the spells are not enough?"

"Yes, teacher. All the credits have been used up."

"It seems that it is good to have the inheritance of blessings from the spiritual world. I guess you should have used up your credits long ago." He Wenhan said jokingly.

"Teacher, can you teach me some magic skills?" Huo Ling asked shamelessly.

"Okay, but if you want to get spells from me, you also need credits." He Wenhan shook his head.

"You also want to collect credits from students." Huo Ling looked bitter after hearing this.

"Of course, the reason is very simple. Have you heard the saying that knowledge is wealth?"

"Ever since the Blue Star people mastered extraordinary power hundreds of years ago, although strong men have arisen all over the country, the inheritance has also been shared with others."

"However, the granting of knowledge is never free. You are lucky. You can also rely on credits in college to obtain the inheritance of spells or martial arts."

"When you graduate, the price you have to pay to gain this knowledge will be much higher."

"Now those who have inheritance are either major universities or major chaebol companies. If you want to obtain meditation methods, breathing methods, spells, and martial arts from the outside world, you can only sign contracts with these people."

"It's said to be a contract, but actually it's more appropriate to call it a contract of sale. You need to work for them to gain this knowledge."

When Huo Ling heard this, he already understood: "That's it."

"Tiannan University was established by the legendary mage, including the spiritual base opposite the school, which was also developed by the legendary mage. We are his students. If we want to gain knowledge from the school, we also need to contribute to the school. , so that you can get credits in exchange for spell inheritance."

He Wenhan continued to preach.

"You have arrived at Black Iron now. You can take on some tasks in school. Whether it is assisting in experiments or doing some time-consuming and laborious tasks, you can get credits. If you feel that it is too slow to obtain credits, you can also go to the academy's spiritual school. There are more opportunities to earn credits there.”

…

After leaving the teacher, the excitement in Huo Ling's chest slowly calmed down, even if he thought about it carefully.

There is no free lunch in the world. If there is, it is probably poison wrapped in honey.

Now the only way for Huo Ling was to work for the school, otherwise he would have no other way to obtain spells.

It is useless for Huo Lingguang to increase his magic power now. It does not improve his strength much. The power of the mage lies in mastering a huge number of spells.

With magic power but no spells, it would be too easy to be targeted and unable to solve the troubles encountered.

Huo Ling first went to the school's task hall and checked the tasks in the school.

There are many tasks within the school, but they don't give many credits.

Recruitment: One black iron mage to assist in spell experiments, 10 credits per month.

Recruitment: Five black iron warriors, the job content is the school patrol team, 3 credits per month.

Recruitment: five black iron warriors and one black iron mage to assist the laboratory in drug testing, 5-10 credits per month.

Recruitment: Recruit 10 pharmacist apprentices. The work content is to preprocess potions and assist the pharmacist in making potions. 1-3 credits per month

Most of the jobs in schools are not dangerous, but the income from credits is also not high.
