"Xia De, how many credits does the academy plan to reward you for this operation?"
After lamenting the danger of the relic, the doctor asked again.
"I haven't submitted my report yet, and the college said it will wait until my report is due to give an answer, but it will be around 10 credits."
The poet-level relic [Endless Mercury Bottle] is worth about four or five credits, and this clerical-level relic is worth about seven or eight credits.
The reason why Shade was able to give 10 credits this time was because he was able to submit a complete relic recovery report, and mentioned a brand new method of relic recovery in the report, instead of just "selling" the relics to the academy. This report, which Xia De has not written yet, will enter the library of the college. Not only for this relic, but also for the storage of similar relics, it can also serve as a great reference. This is actually the value of knowledge.
"In this way, 15 credits will be enough!"
Xia De couldn't help showing a smile. He originally took the incident provided by the priest as a record, thinking that he would only encounter the real relic from Iluna on Friday, but he did not expect to complete the task today.
"Doctor, I'll turn in the mercury vial on Saturday. Try your luck tomorrow to see if you can come across another thing. If you do, it's like saving a relic."
He said to Dr. Schneider, who shook his head:
"There is nothing wrong with this arrangement. I will inform the academy. But people can't always believe in luck. Luck is really unpredictable."
It is really thought-provoking that Dr. Schneider said such words.
"It's not just credits, it's expected to give me a bonus of about 20 pounds."
Xia De, who was in a good mood, said that compared to the actual value of this complex and diverse relic, the bonus of 20 pounds is probably only a fraction.
"If the [relic] is handed in for credits, with a complete containment report, the upper limit for the poet level is 5 pounds, the upper limit for the clerical level is 20 pounds, and the upper limit for the keeper level is 80 pounds. This is the old rule over the years. The one you found is of great value, so you will be rewarded with the highest price."
The doctor said quite experienced, shook his head and put down the wine glass:
"So, the most suitable way to obtain credits is the mission of the academy or the academy's reward order. Of course, the time key is also a very good choice for you."
"Xia De's time is too urgent this time, besides, he was promoted to the second grade in a month, and he doesn't have time to do too many things."
said the old priest, also pleased for Shad:
"I was worried that what happened today was just an evil spirit, but I didn't expect it to be a relic, and the containment process was very smooth, and the whole family was successfully saved. Xia De, I don't know if this is your luck or my luck."
"Of course it's your luck, priest."
Xia De smiled and put down the document paper in his hand, and then hugged the soft little Mia lying on the sofa. While the men were talking, the well-behaved cat kept sleeping next to Shad.
"However, don't relax too much. I still have a lot to do this week..."
Xia De's main task this week is also to inquire about the **** summoning ceremony [contact the door of blazing transformation]. Because of the sudden appearance of the second candidate, the coins in Xia De's hand cannot be spent casually, and he is still waiting for news from Professor Manning.
"Try to deal with another matter tomorrow, and there is a high probability that there will be no results, so you can find time to inquire about the news from Professor Manning."
He was thinking about his plans for tomorrow, but he also had a headache about his career. He had had no other business for a week since the settlement of Mrs. Lemaire's estate.
"Detective Sparrow left four commissions. The lover investigation is over, and the cat hunting commission has become a new foster commission. Now that it's already August, maybe I should settle the remaining two as well."
Xia De thought in his heart, but these matters can only be resolved next week.
After bidding farewell to the doctor and solemnly thanking Priest Augustus for his help today, Xia De left with Mia.
In order to reward the cat for its contribution this afternoon, Xia De took the cat to a restaurant near Place Saint-Andrés for a feast as agreed. Although it was a big meal, for the sake of the cat's health, Xia De didn't give it too much food.
The little orange cat lost his temper for a while, but when the night fell completely and they returned home, Mia forgot that she was still angry with Xia De, and meowed and "led" it upstairs in front of Xia De.
There was no free time after returning home. Taking advantage of the night when there was nothing to do, Xia De took a pen under the gas lamp and spent a lot of effort to finish the report that needed to be submitted. He did not have Dorothy's ability to "read and write" and could only write letter by letter by hand. Although the report does not require any format, in order to appear more formal, the words must be well written.
This is a huge test for foreigners, but the report writing itself is very simple. After all, there is nothing unspeakable about what happened today.
"If things go well, I will be notified on Saturday that I will be promoted to the second grade, and then I will pay for the books... I must have enough savings, but after paying the tuition, there will not be much savings left. It’s hard to cope with the urgent need for money.”
Before I take a shower at night, I still think about income. Then I realized that it was the beginning of the month, and I could go to MI6 to get a sum of money and get reimbursed, but the expenses of taxes, gas, water and steam were also not small.
"We still have to accept a few commissions. I remember that the other two commissions left by Detective Sparrow are not expensive."
Income has increased, but spending has also increased. Even if Xia De can face the gods, he still has to worry about making a living.
(Mia is running...)
Early Friday morning, the city was shrouded in mist. This is Tobesk's usual state in weather without rain. August is considered to be the last month of summer. Although it is still the height of summer, thinking about the coming of autumn, people are very anxious about their livelihood for the next six months.
There are no major local news in the early morning newspapers. The law and order in Tobesk has been surprisingly good in the past two weeks, which can be regarded as the best time for the local law and order environment in decades. Shade, however, became interested in the news about the restructuring of Tobesk University mentioned in the "Steambird Daily". The newspaper with a strong ink smell revealed that some local colleges and universities are willing to open educational courses to people who have made outstanding contributions. .
"Outstanding contribution" refers to school donations, and education courses are basically equivalent to not going, and only need to participate in some basic assessments. But correspondingly, the degrees obtained in this way are not ordinary first, second and third class degrees, but honorary degrees.
For example, King "Fire Jumper" Larus III has honorary degrees in philosophy, economics, and sociology from many colleges and universities in the kingdom.
Xia De paid attention to this news, but he was also interested in this kind of degree status. The basic education of this body is almost equal to none. If Shad hadn't come, all of the Tramp's education would have been accomplished by surprise in a few short months by Mr. Sparrow Hamilton, the foreign spy.
In the foreseeable future, Xia De will live in the Kingdom of Delarion for many years, so he also wants to get himself a decent educational status to enrich his background.
There was of course no practical benefit to this, except to add a line to the business card and an extra sentence when people pronounced his title. But this kind of "gold-plating" of academic background is still necessary for detectives who are mixed in the metropolis of the steam age. And besides the convenience of status, it can also satisfy Xia De's pursuit of himself.
When he was in his hometown, he had a very high degree of education. In this world, if he can find a way to obtain a degree status, of course he must try his best.
"But this donation is really not small..."
So his main problem now is that he still has no money.
So after breakfast, Xia De told Luvia and Iluna who came on time about his attempt to obtain the academic background of Tobesk's local school. Friends are very supportive of Xia De's idea, because of professional needs, it is not a bad thing to have more identity background.
Today is the second day after Iluna returned from the Holy See of the Church of the Sun, the young girl was not idle yesterday. Having been away for more than a week, in addition to church work, the apartment she lives in needs a thorough cleaning.
Today, the three of them gathered here again at Xia De, mainly for the information that Iluna obtained after obtaining the identity of the chosen one.
The girl with long brown hair was very happy to be able to come to Xia De's house again, and she also maintained her enthusiasm for Mia. But Mia was not a cat that was just picked up by others. It was lying on the top of the back of the sofa behind Shad's head. From Iluna's position, only the cat's tail could be seen behind Shad's neck.
"These knowledge and information have gradually appeared in my head recently. No, it's not that I received information from some kind of existence, but that this information already existed, but I didn't know it before."
After briefly introducing the situation, Iluna officially began to explain:
"The most important and complete thing is about the use of 'balance' power. I didn't get new abilities, but gained stronger power based on the original."
She made Xia De and Luvia both show the life ring, then pressed her finger down, looked into their eyes and said "balance". Immediately, both of them felt their own strength being suppressed.
Xia De's level is too low, so the feeling is not particularly clear, but the female fortune teller frowned and admitted that in this state, the suppression she received made her strength decline by at least one-third, which is worse than Iluna's awakening. Previously, this suppression was stronger.
In addition to suppression, Iluna can also use the power of "balance" to enhance the power of the ring warlock. It's just that she doesn't fully grasp the ability, so the effect of enhancement is far less obvious than that of suppression.
Not only the low ring, at present, Iluna can even completely affect the high ring warlock. Although the impact on Gaohuan is not obvious, any negligence in battle is enough to form a fatal disadvantage.
In the presence of Iluna, any ring warlock can defeat enemies across levels. Moreover, Iluna is only the third ring now. As she continues to grow, this power from the ancient gods will become stronger and stronger.
According to her own guess, when she grows to the thirteenth ring, the power of "Balance" is even enough to suppress any ring wizard below the high ring to the first ring.
Of course, this kind of suppressing and promoting power is only part of the power she has obtained so far. More powers are waiting for Iluna to discover, and her journey as a ring warlock will become easier. The identity of the chosen one seems to have the magical effect of directly improving the efficiency of her spirit rune acquisition.
"We can all predict the growth of strength. I think the Church of the Sun has also arranged a detailed promotion plan for you. What I'm more curious about is, what information have you obtained? Is there any information related to "Whispering Verses" and the final door? "
Luvia asked, and Xia De also looked at Iluna curiously, which was what they were most concerned about.
"There is some information, but it's very scattered. I think I need something more to sort it out."
The seventeen-year-old patted herself on the head and realized it was unladylike. She smiled shyly at Xia De, and blinked playfully:
"Each chosen person corresponds to an ancient god. We already know this. And the thirteen chosen ones are related to each other. If someone else officially becomes the chosen one through the ceremony, I can also vaguely perceive his Existence. It's just me right now, so I can't explain what that vague feeling was like."
"Then other people can perceive you too?"
Shad asked.
"Yes, but some unique thaumaturgy, spells and even relics can block this perception. It's just that you have to be the chosen one to know about it, so at the moment the other party becomes the chosen one, I can I feel that the other party ~www.mtlnovel.com~ but the other party must accept the information in order to block this perception."
Iruna concluded, with a smile in Luvia's purple eyes:
"This is a good thing. Even if we can't find the chosen ones, at least we can know the current number."
"Have you told the church about this?"
Xia De asked again, and Iluna nodded:
"Sooner or later, there will be candidates from other camps, this cannot be concealed."
"That's right, there is no need to hide things about the chosen ones from the church. What I want to do is to unite more chosen ones and make the right choice when the door is finally pushed open. We and the church have nothing to do with each other. No opposition."
Luvia stated her point of view again, and Iluna glanced at the cat tail behind Xia De's head, and continued to introduce:
"I haven't sorted out other things yet, but I can be sure that every selected person must be a ring warlock, and cannot be an ordinary person. Moreover, most people should be like me. After becoming a ring magician, they will find own unusual and unique abilities.”
But ring magicians with unusual abilities are not uncommon, such as Shade, Doctor Schneider, Priest Augustus, Luvia and Dorothy. But Shad certainly wasn't, so finding it that way wouldn't work.
