Chapter 325 Resident

  The process of receiving the Golden Feather nameplate went smoothly.

   After leaving the mark on the Golden Feather Spire in the depths of Black Castle, the entire process of receiving the Golden Feather nameplate is declared over.

  Colin is asking Jonah for some details about the Golden Feather nameplate.

   "Your Excellency Jonah, the Golden Feather nameplate can receive two witchcrafts of the same level as your own strength for free every year. What is the basis for this every year?"

   "It's been more than a year since the last collection time and this time." Jonah replied.

   "Is it the same for every year in the school's mandatory task that can be exempted once a year?"

   "No." Jonah shook his head, "The school's annual mandatory tasks are calculated according to the Yanan calendar, so the exemption is also calculated according to the Yanan calendar."

   "First-order wizards need to do four compulsory tasks every year, that is, they need to do it once every three months." Jonah glanced at Colin and added,

   "Since your Excellency advanced at the end of the year, you should only need to do one mandatory task. If you haven't done it yet, you can go to the General Affairs Castle now to offset it with the privilege of the golden feather nameplate."

   "It's already been done." Colin nodded. He went to the southern seas as an accompanying wizard of the Ahlius Society, which was actually a compulsory task.

   This also means that for the remaining month of this year, he doesn't need to worry about what mandatory tasks he needs to do.

   "Is there anything else you want to ask?" Jonah asked.

  Colin thought for a while, and asked the last question: "After obtaining the Golden Feather nameplate, how much is the school's monthly magic stone subsidy?"

   "If I remember correctly... well, it's a thousand magic stones." Jonah was stunned for a moment and replied after thinking for a moment.

   "Are you receiving it on the first floor of Castle Black like the apprentice allowance?"

   "...Yes." Jonah nodded, still looking a little weird.

  Compared with the other benefits that the Golden Feather nameplate can bring, the monthly subsidy of one thousand magic stones is really not worth mentioning.

  But Colin didn't think so.

  Yesterday, he recalculated the magic stone on his body, and it has fallen below five figures, leaving only a little over four thousand.

  For a first-order wizard, such a net worth is obviously considered poor.

  Especially there is another witchcraft on the gold paper—silence, which is close to breaking the limit.

  So although he seems to have enough magic stones now, it is undoubtedly only temporary.

  ‘Perhaps you can consider selling limit-breaking witchcraft to earn magic stones in the future? ’ Colin pondered to himself, but quickly shook his head in his heart, ‘This matter needs to be studied carefully. '

  He discovered a long time ago that there are very few witchcraft or meditation ideas above zero order, or even some scattered knowledge, circulating in the market.

   There is obviously a reason behind this. If you want to sell first-order witchcraft, it is obviously not feasible to go directly to the auction house.

  Of course, this does not mean that you cannot earn magic stones by selling witchcraft, but you need to do some research in advance.

   After all, taking a step back, witchcraft above zero level is not allowed to circulate, so it is not impossible to choose to sell zero level witchcraft, but the efficiency of making money is lower.

  Thinking of this, Colin couldn't help lamenting the serious blockade of witchcraft knowledge in this world.

   Bid farewell to Jonah, he and Ocassie left Black Castle together, and when he passed the first floor of Black Castle, he received this month's magic stone subsidy by the way.

  In Xisheng School, each apprentice has different levels of magic stone subsidies every month.

   This is a benefit specifically for wizard apprentices, and they will no longer enjoy such benefits after advancing to the first level.

  So it was a surprise to Colin that the Golden Feather nameplate could bring a monthly subsidy of one thousand magic stones.

  The warm sunshine is pouring down in large swaths, bringing some warmth to this cold winter noon.

  The city of Neustadt has been covered with a layer of snow, but the streets are still dry under the influence of witchcraft. There is an endless stream of horse-drawn carriages on the road. As usual, it has not been affected by the harsh weather at all.

  Colin and Ocassie walked side by side on the pedestrian-only footpath on both sides of the street, next to bare street trees, with some white snow accumulated on the branches.

  Without Jonah, the atmosphere between the two became a bit dull and awkward.

  Colin didn't pay much attention to it. After all, no matter in his previous life or now, he wasn't happy to socialize. It's good to just walk quietly like this.

  Whether it's the warm winter sun or the white snow on the roof and eaves next to him, he feels very comfortable.

  The city of Neustadt in winter is also unique.

  Only Ocassie on the side didn’t think so. She didn’t like such a dull atmosphere and always felt uncomfortable.

"Your Excellency Colin, are you short of magic stones?" She thought for a while and asked, but as soon as the words came out, she felt a little uncomfortable, so she added with some embarrassment: "I mean, since your Excellency has already It's Jin Yu, the problem with the magic stone is just the most trivial problem..."

  Colin shook his head, "I do lack magic stones."

  Looking at the puzzled Ocassie, he added, "I don't want to be restrained, so I don't plan to join a faction, nor do I plan to join a pure-blood family."

   "Not planning to join the faction?" Ocassie's delicate face showed obvious shock.

  She is a typical school wizard, living in Neustadt since childhood.

  The late father and Wizard Jonah were close friends, so even though her father passed away very early, her growth path was still smooth.

  In her perception, if a wizard wants to climb up, he must join a faction.

  This is a conventional cognition... However, thinking of Colin Jinyu and his identity as a hero wizard, Ocassie felt less surprised.

  After all, among the high-level wizards of the school, there are indeed a few loners.

  Looking at Colin's sharp side face, she felt a little admiration inexplicably.

  If you want to climb a vine, you need to cling to a tall tree, but if you are a tall tree, you don’t need to do this, and you can walk alone.

   After walking for a while, Ocassie turned into an alley, stopped after walking a few steps, turned around and said:

   "We are here, Lord Colin."

   Colin looked up.

   This is a yard surrounded by tall gray walls. Behind the black fence gate is a three-story castle, which looks a bit vicissitudes.

The castle is not big, with only three floors, and the front yard is narrow. Apart from the cobblestone road for people to walk on, there is only a white circular fountain with a diameter of one meter. The water in the pool has also condensed into ice cubes at this time.

  Colin raised his brows slightly, feeling a little disappointed. The scene in front of him was completely different from the place he had imagined in his mind.

  In his imagination, the mysterious and powerful True Knowledge Society, its residence may not be luxurious and majestic, but it should be comparable to the Tin Saint School...

   But looking at it now, it looks a bit like the dilapidated Blackstone Castles of the Lapp School on Blackstone Island back then.

   "Let's go, Lord Colin, I'll take you in." Ocassie said, noticing Colin's expression, she thought for a while and added:

"If there is nothing else on weekdays, the members of the True Knowing Society will not come here. It is more of a place to store knowledge and files. Although it seems inconspicuous, it is the most defensive place in Neustadt. One of the strong places.

  But these are just incidental, and true knowledge will pursue truth, not power. "

  'Is it true...' Colin nodded slightly, and followed Ocassie into the room.

  No matter what the true knowledge is, as long as you can bring yourself resources as you want, that's enough.

   After looking at it, tomorrow's update may not be so soon adjusted to noon, it should be in the afternoon, but it should be before six o'clock?
