Don't disturb the sorcerer's scientific research

Chapter 6 Jia Xiu Discovers the Big Fish

Have you ever seen the sun at 4 a.m. in Riverwood?
Jia Xiu said responsibly.

He hasn't seen it.

The sun doesn't rise in Ximu Town until 4 a.m.

There wasn't even a complete world map in the town, perhaps because the great geographical discoveries had not yet been completed in that era.

In short, there is only a map of the Iris Kingdom hanging outside the lord's mansion, and it is impossible to tell where it is located in this world.

However, based on my life experience in recent years, the climate is warm and humid, I have never seen snow, and the sunrise and sunset times do not fluctuate much throughout the year.

The latitude should not be high.

Useless little knowledge has increased.

Unfortunately, this little knowledge does not correspond to algorithmic research, so I cannot learn any experience from the sect leader.

After this period of hard work, he successfully completed several more studies.

Experience reaches 1100/2700.

Most of them are spell modifications that have no serious use.

There were even some research failures, such as dark vision. Although the dark vision he now mastered allowed people to see clearly in the dark, it would cause them to be unable to see in illuminated conditions.

The time he used it on himself, everything was flashing white the entire day.

I could only lock myself in the laboratory, without lighting a fluorescent crystal, and pretend to be a vampire for a whole day.

However, there are also promising studies.

He came up with a whole new version of the healing technique, inspired by long toenails.

Toenails are made of protein, and so is hair. If toenails can grow, why can't hair grow?

Thus, the primary hair growth healing technique was born.

Although the hair growth effect is far inferior to that of a dedicated spell, the magic power consumed is less than one percent of that of a dedicated spell, so ordinary people can afford it.

Jia Xiu has high hopes for this spell. Even if it doesn't make him financially independent, he must at least make a fortune from it.

However, no one has ever been seen as bald in Ximu Town, so hair growth technology is not very popular.

But he was not worried. According to his plan, he was going to be admitted to the Saint Delo Spellcaster Academy.

Sanderro is located in Larven, the city of all magic, where the best spellcasters gather and the association's headquarters is located. There are 42 magic colleges and countless wizard towers in this city alone.

Every year, hundreds of thousands of apprentices from all over the world who dream of pursuing the truth of magic arrive there to take the examinations of various academies, but less than one in ten can pass.

There's a saying circulating in the Iris Kingdom: "In Larven, even street vendors have spells more powerful than the wizards in ordinary adventure groups."

In other words, such a big city is full of people doing scientific research and studying law.

Are you still worried about no one losing their hair?
Then again, if you want to go to Larven, you have to make sure you can get into St. Delo first.

Teacher Margaret has sent a lot of exam preparation materials.

It includes a detailed introduction to the Santero exam. The exam is divided into many rounds, including written test, practical test, team test, etc., which can be said to be quite rigorous.

The specific rules for the subsequent rounds of testing are adjusted every year and are strictly confidential, and Margaret cannot disclose them.

So what she sent was mainly the written test materials.

"Five Years of Santero Examination Questions," "Ten Years of Santero Examination Simulations," "One Thousand Must-Know Key Points for Spell Examinations"...

And so on.

Obviously, where there is demand, there is a market, and Larven’s supplementary education industry is also very developed.

"Eh--"

Jia Xiu stretched in the laboratory.

His daily routine now is to go to bed at 12 o'clock and wake up at 4 o'clock. With the help of "energy", he is considered healthy.

The rest of the time is almost entirely spent on study and research.

Maybe he was satisfied with the positive feedback from the experience, or maybe he just liked learning.

These days, in addition to helping Aunt Susan with the accounting, I have devoted myself to magic. Far from feeling tired, I feel very excited.

He felt a great sense of joy and accomplishment every time he learned something new. Putting aside the draft about mage armor, Jia Xiu scratched his head and looked at the calendar.

Written on it in red ink were the words, "100 days until the exam."

In the coming days, I will focus on preparing for the exam.

As someone who worked his way up from a small town to a doctorate, Jia Xiu was quite confident about the exam.

He has never failed an exam since he was a child.

It's time to let the other world see the king of exam-oriented education.

But before entering the state of preparing for the exam, he planned to indulge himself a little.

Go out for a nice meal.

Eating bread, smoked sausage and lettuce every day, although there is no big problem with nutrition, and it is even considered a good food condition in Ximu Town, it is really disgusting to eat too much.

Jia Xiu planned to go to a barbecue restaurant on the west side of the town.

It was a very unique restaurant. Only the side dishes and main dishes were fixed on the menu. As for what kind of meat to grill for the main dish, it all depended on the performance of the hunters in the town the day before. They would grill whatever they caught.

What's that word called?

Oh my god?

When you go to eat delicious food, you will always feel good. Jia Xiu hummed a little tune as he walked to the barbecue restaurant.

It was just dawn and there were almost no people on the road.

Normally it's not the time when the restaurant is open.

But the barbecue restaurant was an exception, as this was the time when the hunters had just brought back their prey.

Jia Xiu didn't know much about the quality levels of meat. In his simple understanding, meat tasted better when it was fresh.

Unless you want to eat it alive, there is no better way to get fresher food than going to a barbecue restaurant at this time.

However, at this moment, Jia Xiu suddenly felt like someone was staring at him.

Because he doesn't like socializing, he has always been very sensitive to other people's gazes.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to turn the corner, Jia Xiu glanced behind him.

Sure enough, there were two people, one tall and one short, holding rope bags in their hands, following him.

That sneaky look is just short of having "We are bad guys" written right on their faces.

After confirming that he was being followed, Jia Xiu started thinking quickly.

Why was I being targeted?
Is someone eyeing his money? That shouldn't be the case. The association's bonus is very small, and the bulk of it comes from Professor Margaret, but that was given privately and not made public.

I have a good relationship with people in the town. After thinking about it, I think the only person who dislikes me is Hays.

I still underestimated this noble boy.

It's just a paronychia, is it necessary to hire someone to kidnap you?
We will discuss how to solve the problem of Hays later. For now, let’s deal with these two tracking issues.

[Use the talent "Insight"]

The talent unlocked after the perception attribute reaches 5 points can greatly enhance insight and detect things that you usually don't notice.

[Two cultists, their bodies emitting the stench of the god of fraud and curse, with money in their pockets, the deposit for this business.]

Jia Xiu was speechless. After all, he was the lord's son. It was shameful enough for him to hire someone to kidnap someone. And the person he hired was a cultist. He was just throwing dirty water on his own father.

[Malnutrition, illness, poor physical fitness, extremely low magic power level. Unless a successful sneak attack, there is no reason to complete the kidnapping.]

Now Jia Xiu felt relieved.

It seems that it will break if it is touched from the front.

I was just about to use my primary healing technique to give them a surprise.

A sudden prompt made Jia Xiu hold back the green light that had already emerged.

[Passive skill "Detection" activated, discovering clues to a target of high research value, possibly related to the Fraud and Curse Sect]
