Magic Caster Guild Branch, Purchasing Magic Scrolls
Chapter 25 Magic Caster Guild Branch Buying Magic Scrolls As evening approached, a cool breeze drifted in through the window.
Tang Zheng, who had fallen asleep on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
Hah... "Was it a nightmare?"
Tang Zheng raised his hand, touched the dense sweat on his forehead, exhaled, and muttered to himself softly.
He had dreamed of the Bone King, standing right in front of him, his scarlet eyes staring at him coldly! "Damn it!"
Tang Zheng grinned and cursed under his breath.
The Bone King was a transmigrator, and so was Tang Zheng. The Bone King was a Player, and so was Tang Zheng! "So, why should I be afraid of you!" Tang Zheng took a deep breath, slapped his cheeks to clear his head, and then got out of bed and looked out the window.
The sky outside had already darkened.
Tang Zheng walked to the window of the guest room, pushed it open, and the cool breeze rushed into the room, dissipating much of his restless mood.
He hadn't expected to sleep until evening.
This small inn was a two-story European-style building, and he was staying on the second floor. Through the window, he could see a small alley below and the adjacent street.
Outside the window, there were several wooden railings connected and extending outward, but they looked old and obviously not sturdy.
A Thief with a little skill could easily climb to the second floor using the walls on both sides of the alley.
Tang Zheng observed for a moment, shook his head slightly, and closed the window again.
This kind of small inn couldn't really defend against any Thieves.
Tang Zheng washed his face to freshen up, and then left the guest room.
On the street.
Compared to the daytime, the flow of people was significantly less, with only teams of Adventurers wielding weapons strolling leisurely.
Tang Zheng had already asked the innkeeper about the locations of nearby shops selling various items.
He first went to a shop selling clothes.
The clothes Tang Zheng was wearing had been worn for more than ten days and already had a sour smell. He also needed to prepare a few more sets of clothes for his upcoming trip to the Tove Great Forest.
When he came out of the shop.
Tang Zheng was holding a full package and wearing a black robe that covered his entire body.
It cost him a total of three Silver Coins.
The most expensive item was the black robe he was wearing, which cost a full one Silver Coin and seven Copper Coins. The other clothes in the package were the cheap, coarse linen clothes that Tang Zheng had been wearing before.
The reason he bought this black robe of better material.
Was because Tang Zheng was going to the Magic Caster Guild next, and it would be inappropriate to go there to buy things dressed too poorly.
Within the kingdom, major cities have branches of the Adventurer's Guild and the Magic Caster Guild.
However! Unlike the Magic Caster Guild headquarters in the Royal Capital, the branches in other cities do not have much of a function in training Magic Casters with magic power.
Generally, when people with magic power talent appear, the Magic Caster Guild branches in various cities will send them to the headquarters in the Royal Capital for training.
The reason for this situation is naturally a lack of money!
The rather traditional folk customs of the Re-Estize Kingdom mean that the upper echelons of the entire country do not pay much attention to the Magic Caster Guild, which has led to the Magic Caster Guild finding it almost impossible to obtain financial assistance from above.
Therefore!
The branches of the Magic Caster Guild in various cities have become places dedicated to making magic items, Magic Scrolls, and selling them.
The Magic Caster Guild here was a three-story building with an unremarkable exterior. If Tang Zheng hadn't specifically asked a passerby, he probably wouldn't have thought that this was the branch of the Magic Caster Guild.
Completely different from the bustling Adventurer's Guild, it was quite deserted.
There were no guards at the door.
But thinking about it, probably no one would dare to break into the Magic Caster Guild.
Tang Zheng came to the dark brown wooden door and was about to raise his hand to push it open.
Ding ~ a light sound of a bell came from the upper left side of the wooden door.
Tang Zheng raised his head and looked up, only then noticing a fist-sized bell hanging above the dark brown wooden door.
He could faintly see a faint red glow occasionally appearing on the bell.
A magical item?
The thought flashed through Tang Zheng's mind.
Creak! The dark brown wooden door opened automatically.
So that's how it is.
A hint of realization flashed in Tang Zheng's eyes. It was indeed convenient, but that bell magical item should have more than just this simple function.
Thinking this, Tang Zheng stepped into the Magic Caster Guild. A soft light poured in through the door crack, making the guild's interior exceptionally bright.
Compared to the rough and simple Adventurer's Guild, the interior of the Magic Caster Guild was vastly different from its plain exterior.
The entire hall was dominated by red and black tones. The surrounding walls were entirely covered with a layer of red wooden panels, with only the area near the ground dyed black.
The hall didn't seem large, probably less than a hundred square meters.
Judging from the exterior, the building's area should be far more than that; the interior was clearly divided by partitions.
Six wall lamps were hung on the left and right walls respectively, and a cylindrical chandelier hung from the ceiling, emitting a soft white light that illuminated the entire hall.
Currently, perhaps due to the evening hour, there weren't many people in the Magic Caster Guild.
Only two middle-aged men wearing mage robes were sitting in front of the counter. One was propping up his chin and dozing off, not opening his eyes even with Tang Zheng's arrival.
The other was younger.
When Tang Zheng entered the Magic Caster Guild hall, he had already looked over.
"I'd like to buy some Magic Scrolls," Tang Zheng said softly as he walked forward.
Unlike magical items, which were expensive and often cost around 1000 Gold Coins, Magic Scrolls were consumables, and their production process was relatively well-developed, so their prices weren't too high.
But precisely because they were consumables!
Even some slightly wealthy Adventurers wouldn't buy them easily.
"I'm Valla. What kind of Magic Scrolls do you need?"
This younger Magic Caster named Valla sized Tang Zheng up, his tone somewhat lazy.
Pure black hair was quite rare.
"Do you have a list? I'd like to take a look," Tang Zheng said with a slight bow, feeling a little embarrassed.
Bang! As if he had expected it, Valla casually pulled out a thin booklet from below and placed it on the table, then became somewhat absent-minded.
Tang Zheng didn't mind this attitude. Instead, he picked up the booklet on the table with a slight awkwardness and began to flip through it. He had forgotten that he didn't actually recognize the writing of this world.
The first thing that caught his eye was the introduction to zero-order Magic Scrolls.
Tang Zheng's somewhat awkward mood eased a little. There were pictures on it, so even if he didn't recognize the words, he could tell the function of the scrolls through the pictures.
There were more zero-order scrolls than he had imagined.
Such as: Ignite, Perpetual Light, Clean, and other completely life-related Magic Scrolls with no offensive capabilities. These zero-order magics were dispensable for Adventurers.
He had heard someone in the Rock Squad mention that some merchant groups or nobles would often keep some zero-order Magic Scrolls on hand when traveling to improve the quality of their journey.
Tang Zheng searched for a while and quickly found the zero-order magic Papermaking inside.
However, he didn't immediately speak up to buy it, but continued to flip through the contents of the booklet. Next were first-order magics.
The number decreased sharply, but both the practicality and the effect greatly increased!
"Repair (Tier 1)": Can repair damaged objects.
"Odorless (Tier 1)": Can eliminate one's own scent.
"Floating Board (Tier 1)": Can create a semi-transparent floating board to carry items.
...
"Magic Arrow (Tier 1)": Releases three magic arrows to attack.
Tang Zheng looked at the information in the book. Attack-type Magic Scrolls were very rare, only three in total. Most of the other scrolls were for support.
Huh? Tang Zheng flipped to the last page and found that there were no more.
No Tier 2 Magic Scrolls?
Tang Zheng was briefly stunned. If he remembered correctly, with the scroll manufacturing technology mastered by humans in this other world, they should be able to create Tier 3 Magic Scrolls.
And within the Slane Theocracy, there even existed the incredibly precious manufacturing technology for Tier 4 Magic Scrolls! Tier 3 Magic Scrolls should be considered relatively valuable resources even for the Magic Caster Guild Branch, but Tier 2 scrolls shouldn't be.
So.
It's not that they don't exist, but rather they aren't sold to the public? Or ordinary buyers don't have the qualifications to buy them.
