After Being Fancied by a Necromancer - Chapter 32
“Attention! Ladies and gentlemen! Now you can disembark and go back to the ‘Black’ to rest in the evening. If you plan to stay overnight on Whalefall Island, please remember Back on the ‘Black’ before tomorrow morning, and we will lead you through the wizarding apprentice grading trial.”
Butler Papeet’s voice suddenly resounded throughout the cruise ship.
The puppet butler’s tone was steady and slow, almost a sentence, so that all the freshmen could hear it 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 someone walked down the stairs first.
“Hey Cyril! Let’s go for a walk?”
Warren made his way through the crowd to Cyril.
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 this place later became a temporary base for wizards, the ground has been covered with mud and vegetation, and it looks like a normal island.
Cyril saw a lot of boys and girls of their age who came down from other cruise ships one after another.
“That should be the reserve of wizard apprentices from other continents.”
Warren followed Cyril’s gaze, and saw a crowd of strange clothes not far away, he narrowed his eyes.
I don’t know how well those people are?
“It seems that the grading trials we will conduct later will be conducted by the freshmen of all continents.”
Warren hesitated.
Cyril nodded in agreement.
Soon, his eyes were attracted by other scenery.
As a transit island between the Wizarding Continent and other continents, Whalefall Island has formed a very prosperous and lively city.
Pedestrians and steam carriages come and go at the port.
“Hi, two lovely freshmen, do you need a guide? The price is favorable, the experience is full, tailor-made, and the service is attentive! Only 1 Wu Jing is needed! Of course, you can also give me gold coins, just According to the market price, 10 gold coins! Trust me, I guarantee that there is no more cost-effective!”
A tall and thin young man in a fur coat approached Cyril and Warren, and spoke a long list of words quickly and hastily.
He patted his chest and assured himself that he was a guide of conscience and a leader in the industry.
The tall and thin young man has a baby face, there are some small freckles on both sides of the nose, his eyes are small but very bright, he looks energetic, and he looks very good.
“Don’t hesitate, two gentlemen! I usually charge per person! Think about it, each of you suddenly saved 5 Wu Jing!”
The tall and thin young man’s ability to read words is obviously very good.
He saw at a glance that the two freshmen in front of him didn’t seem to have too much money, and they looked like smart people. They should know that information is the most important thing, which can help them in the grading test Save time before.
“After all, you will participate in the grading test of the freshmen tomorrow morning! There is not much time to visit the Whalefall Island, isn’t it? It’s a lot to find a guide who is as responsible as me. help!”
He rolled his eyes and continued to persuade.
Warren was stunned when he heard the exchange rate between Wu Jing and gold coins.
When he heard the tall and thin young man talking about the “grading trial”, he clenched his hands quietly, and quickly thought about whether it was worth it.
Although there are not many witch crystals on him, it will be worth it if you can get information about tomorrow’s grading trial from this guide.
Warren looked at Cyril beside him hesitantly, 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 1,000 Wu Jing in the previous ring match, which was stored in the Black Rose Chamber of Commerce membership card handed to him by Butler Papeet, and suddenly achieved the small goal of doubling his wealth.
“I’m Pique Albert! Just call me Pique!”
The tall and thin young man happily took his payment from Cyril and Warren, grinned, and introduced himself to them.
Peek went on to say: “Gentlemen, Whalefall Island is not big or small. Since you are all freshmen who need to participate in the wizard’s apprentice grading test tomorrow, let’s start with the wizard. Whaleshead Alley where shops gather.”
“If you have any questions along the way, don’t be polite, ask me in time!”
Pique led Cyril and Warren out of the lively port, and dutifully introduced: “As you all know, every three years, the wizarding academies on the wizarding continent will send The person in charge goes to other continents to recruit students.”
He led the two across a wide road and continued on.
“These freshmen need to pass the wizard apprentice grading test organized by the Wizarding Union before they enter the school, and are divided into five grades ‘A, B, C, D, E’.”
Pic paused, as if suddenly remembered something, and added: “I almost forgot, there are ‘S’ class wizard apprentices, but that is very, very rare!”
If you join, we will provide you with the best treatment! However, as I said before, S-class wizard apprentices are very rare.”
Peek used two “ten” in a row for emphasis.
Cyril immediately thought of Mr. Scott’s terrifying magic value and the great strength he had shown before.
That must be a very rare S-class wizard apprentice, right? !
Cyril recalled the look of the handsome man sighing in distress, and seemed to regret that he was just an “ordinary wizard apprentice”, his forehead twitched.
What a serious nonsense!
“This way.”
Peek led them into a side road.
He continued: “A-level and above wizard apprentices can be unlimited. If you are an A-level wizard apprentice, no matter which wizarding academy brought you to Whalefall Island, you You can choose to join other wizard academies of your choice. Other levels of wizard apprentices do not have such good conditions. If you are a D-level and E-level wizard apprentice, be careful, some wizard academies do not accept E-level wizard apprentices .”
Warren’s face turned pale when he heard this, and he couldn’t help asking aloud:
“Then what is the classification test based on to judge the level of a wizard apprentice? Spiritual power? Magical power?”
“It’s hard to say…”
Peek answered with a guilty conscience, his speech speed suddenly accelerated, as if he had something in his mouth, he muttered vaguely: “After all, I am not a wizard apprentice, and I have never participated in the wizard apprentice trial. “
The small freckles on his nose were slightly red.
Fortunately, Whale’s Head Lane is coming soon, Pique’s eyes lit up, and before the two freshmen said, “Look ahead! Whale’s Head Lane is here!”
Cyril raised his eyes after hearing this.
It was a wide, clean street that reminded him of Crescent Street in Philadelphia.
There are wizards and wizard apprentices in various wizarding robes and capes, and some of them wear pointed wizard hats on their heads.
The long wizard’s robes roll with the corners of the robes when they walk, and they look very mysterious and domineering.
There are also some people in ordinary clothes on the street, I don’t know if they are newborns who have just arrived on Whalefall Island or residents of the island.
The street starts with a sign that says “Welcome to Whale’s Head Lane” in many different languages.
“We start from here, trust me, with me, I know where to buy the cheapest things!”
Peek regained his confidence as if he had come to his territory.
The nearest store to them is a pet store, and the sign in front of the door reads: All-encompassing witch pet store.
There is also a line of slightly smaller handwriting below – “Wizard pets have everything, and there will be in the future if they don’t have it.”
“This shop is the largest witch pet shop in Whale’s Head Lane, and the price is very reasonable.”
Pique said as he pushed open the glass door of the all-encompassing witch pet shop.
“Hi Ross, good afternoon! I brought two freshmen here.”
He greeted the owner.
The shopkeeper Rose is a chubby woman. Seeing Cyril and Warren, she pursed her lips and smiled and said, “Freshmen, take a look. Witch pets are close friends of wizards! A witch pet can not only accompany you to relieve loneliness, but also help you in future outings and battles.”
Cyril looked at this witch pet shop, and it seemed that every corner was filled with magical creatures that he called and could not name.
The reason some creatures are named Cyril is because they all appear in the Strange Creatures Cookbook.
Thanks to that book, Cyril looked at all kinds of owls in front of him: grass owl, brown owl, snow owl, etc. Fat-faced chicken is best eaten in soup”…
Seeing that the creatures on these recipes are now appearing in the all-encompassing witch pet shop, as a “close friend of wizards”, Cyril looked a little strange for a moment.
But thinking that the author of The Strange Creatures Cookbook also called the color-changing octopus “the wizard’s best friend!”, he was relieved immediately.
Cyril caught a glimpse of a pile of strangely colored eggs in the corner, he couldn’t help recalling the egg of the delicious eye of the storm scallop he ate before, and asked the system in his mind: [ Can you detect what kind of creature’s egg this is? ]
The system hesitated for a while before answering:
[Not very good, these eggs are very strange, I feel that every creature has a little bit of ingredients! 】The shop owner Ross saw Cyril staring at the eggs, and couldn’t help but explain aloud, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
“These eggs were put on consignment by a wizard apprentice named Schrödinger. Before they break out of their shells, I don’t know what kind of witch pets will appear. If you want to buy them, just 10 Wu Jing for one egg, 15 Wu Jing pick 2 eggs.”
Good guy, that Schrödinger apprentice again!
Cyril’s gaze at the eggs immediately became admirable.
If he hadn’t already had Green the Snake, he might have tried to see what kind of blind box pet he could make.
Warren 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 on the blade.
Warren hopes that he can buy a few good defensive magic items, which he can use during the wizard’s apprentice grading trial.
Seeing that neither of them had anything to buy, Pique led them into the next shop, Mrs. Wood’s Herbal Shop.
This is a herbal material store, not a finished pharmacy.
The herbal shop is very clean and tidy, filled with the fragrance of various herbs mixed together.
All kinds of herbs are neatly packaged in transparent glass jars according to different parts, and the price and dosage of witch crystal are marked on it.
There are also various herbal powders that have been further ground, and some of the rare herbal powders are priced at 100 Wujing per tablespoon.
Cyril here identifies many of the herbs that have been introduced in “It is better to seek medical treatment than to seek oneself – on the identification and efficacy of herbal medicines”.
Next to the herbal shop is the finished medicine shop.
Dozens of slender glass bottles filled with colorful liquids, with names and prices scrawled beneath them.
Cyril looked at one of the shelves, glanced at a row of potions, and paused for a while.
The first glass bottle on the left holds a blue vial.
This blue is not pure, there are impurities visible to the naked eye.
The label below reads: “Inferior Calming Potion, 1 Witch Crystal 5 Bottles”.
Cyril looked at the second glass bottle.
This bottle is also a blue potion, but this blue looks much cleaner.
He looked at the label: “Medium soothing potion, 1 witch crystal 1 bottle”.
No accident, the third one is “Premium Calming Potion, 2 Wu Jing and 1 bottle”.
The quality of the first-class soothing potion is already very good, and there is a sense of tranquility just by looking at it.
The liquid seems to be integrated with the glass bottle, and there is a faint blue halo around it, which is of extraordinary quality at first glance.
“Treasure soothing potion, 5 witch crystals and 1 bottle”.
Cyril thought.
He remembered the main raw materials of the soothing potion that he had just seen in Mrs. Wood’s herbal shop – water source flower petals, 1 witch crystal 1000g; daisy root, 1 witch crystal 500g.
good), it can be made into a bottle of soothing potion.
So, Cyril made up his mind to study the potions class well, not only to do it himself, but maybe he could make a fortune by this.
