A clear and pleasant female voice sounded, grabbing his sleeve. Se Lian didn't realize what he was going to do, and was still immersed in the magic scroll just now. "I have a question for you." "......" Roland looked at Tolina not far away, lowered his head, and spoke softly to Se Lian. "Sorry, junior, I have something urgent to do. Let's meet in the afternoon in the Haimo classroom. I can answer any questions you have." "Well... okay." Se Lian nodded. The blond young man turned and left, heading for the north gate of the academy, also known as the main gate. When he arrived, the Rodel Knights were lined up in two rows, with Tolina and Lani standing in the front, and Brother Wolf standing beside them, all of them seemed to be waiting for Roland. This time, there were no outsiders. The Rodel Knights saluted in unison, their gauntlets and breastplates colliding with each other, making crisp sounds. "Your Highness!"
"Stop, everyone, take a break." Roland asked them to be quiet and then took a look around. He started to say, “First of all, don’t reveal my identity, and shut up. The second thing is to escort Tolina back until someone from the royal city comes to pick her up. The third thing will be discussed after you come back. I need you to help me explore the way." Roland couldn't possibly let them go back. If they did, and they were replaced by a black knife assassin, he wouldn't be able to sleep well and would have to sleep in armor. Therefore, there is a way to have the best of both worlds, which is to send out Knight Rodel. He knew where the Corruption Lake was, but in the game, to get to the Corruption Lake, one had to do the Lani side quest and smash a big hole. Now there is only the elevator shaft, and the specific route is not very clear, so someone needs to check it. Fortunately, this team of Rodel Knights is quite powerful and they advance steadily. With the general map given by Roland, they will definitely be able to find the Corruption Lake. When the time comes, Torina will take back the Predestined Death, and Roland will be fully prepared to go fight the Goddess of Corruption. His strength, agility and faith are now at full strength, and his intelligence is halfway. After a while, he might really become a bucket-list player. I don't believe that he cannot defeat the Goddess of Corruption. If it doesn't work, she can always ask for help. She can be killed by all the help. If Lani wasn't here, this mission would be told directly to Knight Rodel, but she was still here, so Roland couldn't explain it too clearly. He walked over to Torina, hugged his sister gently, and whispered in her ear. “Go back quickly, Marenia is still waiting for you. You must find the Flowing Water Swordsman and make golden needles to extend her time as much as possible and suppress her pain. You know, soon, if you can get your hands on that thing, we can free our sister from the scarlet corruption. Or, let our sister become the new goddess of corruption!" "Ah?" Tolina was stunned. Is my brother still thinking about this?
Kill the Scarlet Corruption and let Malenia take his place as the new god. My brother is really awesome. Roland just said it casually, but Tolina took it seriously. With a firm look in her eyes, she hugged him and responded. "I will definitely get it, brother." "please." Lani, who was standing by, watched Torina and Roland being intimate with each other out of the corner of her eye. She felt annoyed and kept tapping the ground with her toes, making low tapping sounds. She didn't push. My whole body exudes the aura of, "Hurry up and separate, I have something else to do." The half-wolf Blaze smiled and looked at the princess, staying with her. Finally, the two people separated. Chapter 13 Merchants The hug between the two only lasted for a short time. Judging from Torina's expression, she seemed a little reluctant to let go. After being apart for a year, I had to go back after only staying for one day. If Malenia hadn't been waiting for her, Tolina wouldn't have wanted to go back. Although the conditions are not as good as those in the royal city, my brother is here. She let go of Roland and said goodbye. "I am leaving." "Be careful on the road. If you still want to come, prepare a portal in advance." Roland looked at her and couldn't help but tell her this method. As long as she could control her destined death, she could relax a little. There is no destined death, and under the protection of the golden tree, no one can kill the demigod. If Marika smashed the ring and the Golden Law was no longer effective, Roland would immediately take Torina, Marennia and others to the Holy Tree Stage. It’s not a problem to press a portal, this is just a temporary resting place. "That's a good idea." Torina blinked. "Next time I'll prepare one so I can visit my brother anytime." "Let's go." Roland watched Knight Rodel escort Torina away. Not long after they left, she turned back, waved goodbye to Roland and Lani. Until they disappeared from his sight, he turned around to look at Lani and Wolf Brother and asked. "Why have you been here?" "Can't I be here?" Lani asked back, with her arms folded across her chest, wearing a snow witch outfit, "This is the magic academy, what does it have to do with you where I am?" Why is there such a strong smell of gunpowder?
Roland didn't understand and looked at the half-wolf Blaze. The wolf brother shrugged and said nothing, showing a helpless expression. Lani turned her head, snorted, and walked away angrily without saying anything. Leaving him and Wolf Brother standing there in a daze, Half-Wolf Blaze scratched his head and began to explain. "Ah, the princess wanted to see Her Highness Torina off, but... Her Highness Torina didn't seem to be very close to the princess." "Pfft." Roland laughed. "Let's go! Blaze!" Lani stamped her feet and shouted from a distance, "Don't talk too much." "Here I come." Half-wolf Blaze looked helpless and followed Lani's pace. Not far away, you can hear two people talking. The voices are not loud, but loud enough to hear. "Her Highness Torina is such a good girl. She listens to everything I say and never causes any trouble. She is also willing to help us. If she hadn't been so cooperative, I'm afraid the other magic professors wouldn't have believed her." "Stop talking, Blaze." Lani glanced up, clenched her fists, and pressed her hands down at her sides. "Yeah, she's cute too, right?" "She's really cute." Lani's voice was a little sweet, and then it became scary. "How could she be that man's daughter? What a pity." "Princess, aren't you also..." "You are annoying today! Blaze, I know Torina is very well-behaved and cute. She listened to my instructions the whole time today and nodded to everything I said." She stamped her feet anxiously, "I just like her very much, so what? She has to be the daughter of that bastard." The two figures walked away, and Roland could no longer hear their conversation. He shook his head with a smile on his face. I didn't expect that Lani was upset because Torina didn't get close to her. If she liked Torina, she should just say it directly, but she didn't say anything. How could anyone not like Torina? Even Lani, after spending a day with her, had a good impression of her. He had an appointment with Miss Serenity, and before returning to the Hammer classroom, he had to make one more preparation. If you follow the path on the side of the main gate without using teleportation magic, you will enter a rarely traveled path. In the game, this place has been abandoned and a wandering merchant has settled here. And now, there is still a wandering merchant on this path, and Roland is an acquaintance. After walking down for more than ten minutes, the shade of the trees is endless. Even in the daytime, you can occasionally hear the howling of wolves, making the path seem a little eerie. The blond young man held a twenty-five percent reinforced golden tree staff in his hand. He showed no fear at all and his expression was normal. Not to mention a few wild wolves, with his current stats, he can even beat Rune Bear. Since the path is not abandoned, the wandering merchant is not at the end of the path, but under the bridge. King Elden would have been killed from this height, but it was nothing to Roland. He held onto the guardrail with one hand and jumped lightly. His boots touched the lake water, and he landed very lightly, fearing that splashes would stain his clothes. There used to be a large lake here, but now it is almost dry. Only a few areas still have deep water, and most of it has become shallow water that can be stepped on directly, not even enough for the back of the foot. As he jumped down, there was a cry of surprise from below, followed by a sigh of relief.
"Oh, you scared me. It's Roland. Your clothes look really nice." "Why are you still so timid?" Roland stood in the shallow water, his lambskin boots wet and shiny. He just needed to go back and wipe them. He looked towards the wandering merchant, and was surprised to see another customer, a magic apprentice who looked about his own age, holding a gazing staff. "Really one thousand runes? That's too expensive, right? Can it be cheaper? It was only sold for eight hundred runes before!" The magic apprentice muttered, trying to bargain with the wandering merchant. "It's up to you whether you want to buy it or not. The Stargazing Staff is very popular recently. It costs one thousand Runes. Do you want to buy it?" The wandering merchant waved his hand. It seemed that the product was indeed easy to sell, otherwise he would definitely not have this attitude. He turned his head to look at the blond young man and asked, "Roland, what do you want?" Roland blinked his eyes. "Do you still have the Stargazing Rod? Show me what you have recently bought?" "I still have the Stargazing Staff, but the price has gone up. Now it's 900 Runes. Do you want to buy it?" The wandering merchant was all grinning. Another person came to buy the Stargazing Staff. "Hey, why is he nine hundred?" The magic apprentice widened his eyes and turned to look at the young man. The wandering merchant frowned. "Do you want to buy it? If not, put it down. One thousand runes." "Okay, okay, one thousand is fine." The magic apprentice took out the money and kept hesitating. If you don’t buy it, it will be gone. The magic academy has just started its term, and a gazing staff at one thousand runes is considered a bargain. Roland stroked his chin and watched the wandering merchant take out another astronomical stick like a magician. "Here, take a look?" The wandering merchant handed it over and spread out the goods. "It's new stuff, take a look for yourself, maybe there's something that suits your taste." "Hey, we are old acquaintances, right? I have bought things from you many times this year. Can't you sell to me at the original price?" Roland looked at the goods. "The original price won't work. The academy has just started, and the demand for magic wands has increased greatly. I'm lucky enough to have the stock. Why? You don't want it? Then I'll keep it. I just sold it for a thousand runes." The wandering merchant rubbed his hands and laid out his goods one by one. There were about twenty or thirty items, all in very small quantities. It’s not that we don’t want to purchase in large quantities, but we can’t. They are wandering merchants who are not accepted by the Golden Blessing and dare not import too much goods. Chapter 14 Magic If we encounter danger and have a large amount of goods, it will be inconvenient to escape. Secondly, we are afraid of being stuck with the goods. We have too little working capital and if we really can’t sell them, we won’t be able to afford food. The wandering merchant was very happy to see Roland. This guy was very generous and would buy a lot of things every time. So, in order to keep this old customer coming back, he really gave him a very low price. Roland rubbed his temple and nodded, "Let's have one. I have no choice but to promise her." "Her? Have you met a new student you like? I know your reputation in the magic academy. So many beautiful female magicians confessed their love to you, but you rejected them all. And the people you like who need gifts? Don’t they all give you gifts? Which junior school girl is this for? Let me see it too. How beautiful must it be to please you?"
This conclusion is easy to infer. The wandering merchant not only does Roland's business, but also knows everything about the magic academy. With the new students coming to school recently, Roland certainly doesn't need a staff himself. The Stargazing Staff is very suitable for magic apprentices, so it's most appropriate to give it to a female student. This staff is of considerable value, but compared to other staffs, it is still very cheap. Roland smiled and said, "It is indeed for my junior schoolmate, she is very beautiful, her eyes are as blue as the lake.
