After Being Fancied by a Necromancer

"Attention! Gentlemen and ladies! Now you can disembark and go back to the 'Black' to rest at night. If you plan to stay overnight on Whalefall Island, please remember to return to the 'Black' before tomorrow morning 'On the cruise ship, we will lead everyone to conduct the grading trial of wizard apprentices."

Butler Papert's voice suddenly resounded throughout the cruise ship.

The puppet butler's tone was steady, and his speech was very slow, almost stopping every word, so that all the new students could hear them clearly.

As its voice fell, several long stairs suddenly appeared on the shore side of the cruise ship.

The freshmen looked at each other, and some of them walked down the stairs first.

"Hey, Cyril! Shall we go shopping together?"

Warren made his way through the crowd to Cyril's side.

Cyril nodded and walked side by side with him.

The two walked down the stairs to the ground of the port.

Although from a distance, Whalefall Island looks like the remains of a giant whale.

But since it became a temporary foothold for wizards, the ground has been covered with mud and vegetation, and it looks like a normal island.

Cyril saw many boys and girls who were similar to their age came down from other cruise ships one after another.

"That should be the wizard apprentice reserve from other continents."

Warren followed Cyril's gaze, and saw a crowd in strange costumes not far away, and he squinted his eyes.

I don't know what level those people are?

"It seems that the grading test we will conduct later will be conducted by all the freshmen from all continents."

Warren hesitated.

Cyril nodded in agreement.

Soon, his eyes were attracted by other scenery.

Whalefall Island, as a transit island between the Wizard Continent and other continents, has formed a very bustling and lively city.

Pedestrians are crowded at the port, steam carriages are also coming and going, and there is a lot of noise.

"Hi, two lovely freshmen, do you need a guide? The price is favorable, full of experience, tailor-made, and considerate service! Only 1 witch crystal is needed! Of course, it is also possible to give me gold coins, just according to the market price, 10 gold coins! Believe it Me, I promise there is no better deal!"

A tall, thin young man in a fur coat approached Cyril and Warren, and spoke a long series of words quickly and urgently.

He patted his chest and assured himself that he was a conscience guide and a leader in the industry.

The tall and thin young man has a baby face, and there are some obvious small freckles on both sides of the nose, and a pair of small but very bright eyes. He looks energetic and looks very good.

"Don't hesitate, two gentlemen! I usually charge by the head! Think about it, each of you saved 5 Wujing at once!"

The tall and thin young man's ability to read words and demeanor is obviously very good.

He could tell at a glance that the two freshmen in front of him didn't seem to be short of money, and they were both smart people. They should know that information is the most important thing, which can help them save time before the grading trial.

"After all, you are going to participate in the grading test for new students tomorrow morning! There is not much time to visit on Whale Falling Island, is there? Finding a responsible guide like me will be of great help!"

He rolled his eyes and continued to persuade.

Warren was stunned when he heard the market price exchange between Wu Jing and gold coins, and couldn't help but think of the exchange rate in the restaurant on the Black, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

When he heard the tall and thin young man talk about the "graded trial", he clenched his hands calmly, thinking quickly in his heart whether it was worthwhile.

Although there are not many witch crystals on him, if he can get information about tomorrow's grading trial from this guide, it will be worth it.

Warren looked hesitantly at Cyril beside him, if Cyril was willing...

Cyril readily took out 5 gold coins from his pocket and handed them to the tall and thin young man in front of him.

Fortunately, he earned 1000 witch crystals in the group arena before, and all of them were stored in the membership card of the Black Rose Chamber of Commerce that Butler Papiter gave him, and he realized the small goal of doubling his wealth in one fell swoop.

"I'm Pique Albert! Just call me Pique!"

The tall and thin young man happily took his reward from Cyril and Warren, grinned, and introduced himself to them.

Peake continued: "Gentlemen, Whalefall Island is neither big nor small. Since you are all freshmen who need to participate in the grading trial of wizard apprentices tomorrow, let's start with Whalehead Alley where wizard shops gather. .”

"If you have any questions along the way, you are welcome to ask me in time!"

Pique led Cyril and Warren out of the busy port, and dutifully introduced: "You all know that every three years, the wizarding academies on the wizarding continent will send their leaders to recruit students from other continents. "

He led the two of them across a wide road and continued on.

"These freshmen need to pass the witcher apprentice grading test organized by the Wizarding Union before entering school, and are divided into five levels of 'A, B, C, D, and E'."

Picker paused, as if suddenly remembering something, and added: "I almost forgot that there are 'S'-level wizard apprentices, but those are very, very rare!"

He glanced at the two ignorant freshmen beside him who were listening carefully to his introduction, and said in a low voice: "If you can become S-level wizard apprentices, then the major wizard academies will rush to ask you to join, and will provide you with the best Good treatment! However, as I said before, S-level wizard apprentices are very, very rare."

Pique used two "ten" in a row to emphasize.

Cyril immediately thought of Mr. Scott's terrifying mana value and the strong strength he had shown before.

That must be a very rare s-level wizard apprentice, right? !

Cyril recalled the appearance of the handsome man sighing in distress, as if feeling very regretful that he was just an "average wizard apprentice", his forehead twitched.

Serious nonsense!

"Go this way."

Pick led them into a small road.

He continued: "A-level and above wizard apprentices are not restricted. If you are an A-level wizard apprentice, no matter which wizard academy brought you to Whalefall Island, you can choose to join other wizards you like Academy. Other levels of wizard apprentices do not have such good conditions, if you are D-level and E-level wizard apprentices, you have to be careful, some wizard colleges do not accept E-level wizard apprentices."

Warren's face turned pale when he heard this, and he couldn't help asking:

"Then what is the basis of the grading test to judge the level of a wizard apprentice? Spiritual power? Magical power?"

"It's hard to say exactly..."

Pique replied with a guilty conscience, his speech speed suddenly accelerated, and he muttered vaguely as if there was something in his mouth: "After all, I am not a wizard apprentice, and I have never participated in the wizard apprentice trial."

The little freckles on his nose were slightly red.

Fortunately, Whalehead Lane is coming soon. Pique's eyes lit up, and he rushed to say before the two freshmen said, "Look ahead! Whalehead Lane is here!"

Cyril raised his eyes upon hearing this.

It was a wide, clean street that reminded him of Philadelphia's Crescent Street.

There were wizards and wizard apprentices in all sorts of wizarding robes and cloaks, and they also had pointed wizard hats on their heads.

The long wizard's robe rolls when walking, and the wind brings the wind when walking, looking very mysterious and domineering.

There are also some people in ordinary clothes on the street. I don't know if they are freshmen who have just arrived on Whalefall Island or residents on the island.

There is a street sign at the beginning of the street, which says "Welcome to Whalehead Lane" in many different languages.

"Let's start here, trust me, I'm here, I know where to buy the cheapest things!"

Pique regained his confidence as if he had come to his territory.

The nearest shop to them was a pet shop, and the sign in front of the door said: All-inclusive witch pet shop.

There is also a line of slightly smaller handwriting below - "Witch pets are everything, and there will be futures that don't exist."

"This store is the largest witch pet store in Whalehead Lane, and the price is very reasonable."

While speaking, Peake pushed open the glass door of the all-encompassing witch pet shop.

"Hey Ross, good afternoon! I brought two new students over."

He greeted the shopkeeper.

The owner, Rose, is a chubby woman. When she saw Cyril and Warren, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Freshmen, take a look around. Witch pets are close partners of wizards! Having a witch pet is not only a companion You ease the loneliness, and you'll be able to help out on future outings and battles."

Cyril looked at this witch pet shop, and it seemed that every corner was filled with magical creatures that he could name and could not name.

The reason why some creatures Cyril can name is because they all appear in "The Cookbook of Strange Creatures".

Thanks to that book, Cyril looked at the various types of owls in front of him: grass owl, brown owl, snow owl, etc., and the first thing that flashed in his mind was "Round-faced fat chicken, best eaten in soup" "...

Seeing the creatures on these recipes now appearing in the all-encompassing witch pet shop, as a "close partner of wizards", Cyril looked a little weird for a moment.

But he was immediately relieved to think that the author of "The Cookbook of Strange Creatures" also called the color-changing octopus "a wizard's best friend!"

Cyril caught a glimpse of a pile of strangely colored eggs in the corner. He couldn't help but recall the delicious eye of the storm scallop egg he ate before, and asked the system in his mind: [Can you detect what kind of creature this is? eggs? ]

The system hesitated for a while before replying:

[Not very good, these eggs are very strange, it feels like there are a little bit of biological ingredients! ] Seeing Cyril staring intently at the eggs, the owner Ross couldn't help explaining aloud, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"These eggs were consigned to me by a wizard apprentice named Schrödinger. Before they broke their shells, I didn't know what kind of witch pets would appear. If you want to buy, you only need 10 witch crystals per egg, 15 A witch crystal picks two eggs."

Good guy, it's that Schrödinger wizard apprentice again!

Cyril's eyes on these eggs immediately became appreciative.

If he hadn't already had the little snake Green, maybe he would try to see what kind of blind box pet he could create.

Warren also doesn't have any witch pets he wants to buy.

Although his eyes stayed on a handsome snow owl for a long time, he knew that he should spend the few remaining witch crystals wisely.

Warren hoped that he could buy a few good defensive magic items, so that he could use them during the wizard apprentice grading trial.

Seeing that neither of them had anything to buy, Pick led them into the next store - Mrs. Wood's herbal store.

This is a herbal ingredient store, not a finished pharmacy.

The herbal medicine store was very clean and tidy, filled with the fragrance of various herbs mixed together.

All kinds of herbal medicines are neatly divided into transparent glass jars according to different parts, and the price and dosage of witch crystals are marked on them.

There are also various herbal powders that have been further ground, and the price of some rare herbal powders is one hundred witch crystals per spoonful.

Here, Cyril identified many of the herbs that were introduced in "It's Better to Seek Yourself--On the Identification and Effect of Herbal Medicines".

Next door to the herbal medicine shop is the ready-made pharmacy.

Dozens of slender glass bottles hold colorful liquids, with names and prices scribbled on labels underneath.

Cyril looked at one of the shelves, glanced over a row of medicines, and paused for a while.

The first glass bottle on the left contains a tube of blue potion.

This blue is not pure, there are impurities visible to the naked eye.

The label below reads: "Inferior Calming Potion, 1 Wujing 5 bottles".

Cyril looked at the second glass bottle.

This bottle also contains blue potion, but this blue color looks much cleaner.

He looked at the label: "Medium soothing potion, 1 bottle of witch crystal".

Not surprisingly, the third one is "Premium Calming Potion, 2 witch crystals and 1 bottle".

The quality of the first-class calming potion is already very good, and there is a sense of tranquility just by looking at it.

And there is a glass bottle on the right side of it, the liquid inside is enough to be called crystal clear, bright and clean, clear and beautiful.

The liquid seems to be integrated with the glass bottle, with a faint blue halo all over it, and it is of extraordinary quality at first glance.

"Precious tranquilizing potion, 5 witch crystals and 1 bottle".

Cyril thought about it.

He remembered the main raw materials of the calming potion that he had just seen in Mrs. Wood's herbal medicine store - water flower petals, 1 witch crystal 1000g; daisy root, 1 witch crystal 500g.

According to "seeking medical treatment is worse than seeking oneself - on the identification method and efficacy of herbal medicine", only 1g of water source flower petal powder, 0.5g of daisy root and a small amount of water (morning dew is better) can be made into a A bottle of soothing potion.

Therefore, Cyril made up his mind to study Potions carefully, not only to earn enough food and clothing by himself, but maybe he could even make a fortune from this.
